Matthew 16

1 Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came and tested Jesus by asking Him to show them a sign from heaven.

1 有几个法利赛人和撒都该人来试探耶稣，要求祂显个天上的神迹给他们看。

2 But He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘The weather will be fair, for the sky is red,’

2 耶稣回答说：“傍晚的时候，你们说，‘天上有红霞，明天必晴朗。’

3 and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but not the signs of the times.

3 早晨的时候，你们说，‘天色又红又暗，今天必有风雨。’你们懂得分辨天色，却不能分辨时代的征兆。

4 A wicked and adulterous generation demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Then He left them and went away.

4 一个邪恶淫乱的世代想看神迹，但除了约拿的神迹以外，再没有神迹给他们看。”于是耶稣离开他们走了。

5 When they crossed to the other side, the disciples forgot to take bread.

5 门徒渡到湖对岸，忘记带饼了。

6 “Watch out!” Jesus told them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

6 耶稣对他们说：“你们要小心提防法利赛人和撒都该人的酵。”

7 They discussed this among themselves and concluded, “It is because we did not bring any bread.”

7 门徒彼此议论说：“这是因为我们没有带饼吧。”

8 Aware of their conversation, Jesus said, “You of little faith, why are you debating among yourselves about having no bread?

8 耶稣知道他们的心思，就说：“你们的信心太小了！为什么议论没有带饼的事呢？

9 Do you still not understand? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?

9 你们还不明白吗？你们不记得那五个饼让五千人吃饱，又装满多少篮子吗？

10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?

10 也不记得那七个饼给四千人吃饱，又装满多少筐子吗？

11 How do you not understand that I was not telling you about bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

11 我并非和你们谈论饼，你们怎么不明白呢？你们要提防法利赛人和撒都该人的酵。”

12 Then they understood that He was not telling them to beware of the leaven used in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

12 门徒这才恍然大悟，知道耶稣不是叫他们当心什么面酵，而是要提防法利赛人和撒都该人的教导。

13 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”

13 到了凯撒利亚·腓立比境内，耶稣问门徒：“人们说人子是谁？”

14 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

14 门徒回答说：“有人说是施洗者约翰，有人说是以利亚，还有人说是耶利米或其他某位先知。”

15 “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?”

15 耶稣问：“那么，你们说我是谁？”

16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

16 西门·彼得回答说：“你是基督，是永活上帝的儿子！”

17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by My Father in heaven.

17 耶稣对他说：“约拿的儿子西门啊，你是有福的！因为这件事不是属血肉的人告诉你的，而是我天上的父启示你的。

18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.

18 我告诉你，你是彼得 ，我要在这磐石上建立我的教会，阴间的势力 不能胜过它。

19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

19 我要把天国的钥匙交给你。凡你在地上捆绑的，在天上也要捆绑；凡你在地上释放的，在天上也要释放。”

20 Then He admonished the disciples not to tell anyone that He was the Christ.

20 当下，耶稣叮嘱门徒不可告诉别人祂就是基督。

21 From that time on Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.

21 从此以后，耶稣开始清楚地指示门徒，祂必须去耶路撒冷，受长老、祭司长和律法教师许多的迫害，并且被杀害，但第三天必复活。

22 Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. “Far be it from You, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to You!”

22 彼得把耶稣拉到一边，劝阻祂说：“主啊，千万不可！这件事绝不会发生在你身上！”

23 But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”

23 耶稣转过身来对彼得说：“撒旦，退到我后面去！你是我的绊脚石，因为你不考虑上帝的意思，只考虑人的意思。”

24 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

24 于是耶稣对门徒说：“人若想跟从我，就当舍己，背起他的十字架跟从我。

25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

25 因为想救自己生命的，必失去生命；但为了我失去生命的，必得到生命。

26 What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?

26 人就算赚得全世界，却丧失自己的生命，又有什么益处呢？人还能拿什么换回自己的生命呢？

27 For the Son of Man will come in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done.

27 “因为人子要在祂父的荣耀中与众天使一起降临，那时，祂将按照各人的行为报应各人。

28 Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”

28 我实在告诉你们，有些站在这里的人会在有生之年看见人子降临在祂的国度里。”
