PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Los fariseos y los Saduceos vinieron para probar a Jesús, exigiéndole que les mostrara una señal del cielo.
1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
1 Καὶ προσελθόντες οἱ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ Σαδδουκαῖοι πειράζοντες ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν σημεῖον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐπιδεῖξαι αὐτοῖς.
2 Jesús les dijo: “Por la noche, ustedes dicen, ‘mañana habrá buen tiempo, porque el cielo se ve rojo,’
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
2 ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ὀψίας γενομένης λέγετε· εὐδία· πυρράζει γὰρ ὁ οὐρανός·
3 pero por la mañana dicen: ‘habrá mal tiempo hoy, porque el cielo está rojo y nublado’. ¡Ustedes saben predecir el clima por cómo se ve el cielo, pero no son capaces de reconocer las señales de los tiempos!
3 In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!
3 καὶ πρωΐ· σήμερον χειμών· πυρράζει γὰρ στυγνάζων ὁ οὐρανός. [ὑποκριταί,] τὸ μὲν πρόσωπον τοῦ οὐρανοῦ γινώσκετε διακρίνειν, τὰ δὲ σημεῖα τῶν καιρῶν οὐ δύνασθε [γνῶναι];
4 La gente mala que no confía en Dios es la que espera una señal milagrosa, y a esas personas no se les dará ninguna señal excepto la señal de Jonás”. Y entonces se fue de allí.
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
4 γενεὰ πονηρὰ καὶ μοιχαλὶς σημεῖον ἐπιζητεῖ, καὶ σημεῖον οὐ δοθήσεται αὐτῇ εἰ μὴ τὸ σημεῖον Ἰωνᾶ τοῦ προφήτου. καὶ καταλιπὼν αὐτοὺς ἀπῆλθεν.
5 Cuando iban hacia el otro lado del lago, los discípulos olvidaron llevar pan.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
5 Καὶ ἐλθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ πέραν ἐπελάθοντο ἄρτους λαβεῖν.
6 “Cuídense de la levadura de los fariseos y los Saduceos”, les dijo Jesús.
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
6 ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ὁρᾶτε καὶ προσέχετε ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ Σαδδουκαίων.
7 Los discípulos comenzaron a discutir entre ellos. “Está diciendo eso porque no trajimos pan”, concluyeron.
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
7 οἱ δὲ διελογίζοντο ἐν ἑαυτοῖς λέγοντες ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἐλάβομεν.
8 Pero Jesús sabía lo que ellos estaban diciendo y les dijo: “¡Ustedes confían muy poco en mi! ¿Por qué están discutiendo entre ustedes por no tener pan?
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
8 γνοὺς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· τί διαλογίζεσθε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, ὀλιγόπιστοι, ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἐλάβετε;
9 ¿Acaso aún no lo han entendido? ¿No recuerdan los cinco panes que alimentaron cinco mil personas? ¿Cuántas canastas sobraron?
9 Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
9 οὔπω νοεῖτε, οὐδὲ μνημονεύετε τοὺς πέντε ἄρτους τῶν πεντακισχιλίων καὶ πόσους κοφίνους ἐλάβετε;
10 ¿Y qué hay de los siete panes que alimentaron a los cuatro mil? ¿Cuántas canastas sobraron?
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
10 οὐδὲ τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἄρτους τῶν τετρακισχιλίων καὶ πόσας σπυρίδας ἐλάβετε;
11 ¿No se han dado cuenta aún de que yo no hablaba sobre el pan? ¡Cuídense de la levadura de los fariseos y los Saduceos!”
11 How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
11 πῶς οὐ νοεῖτε ὅτι οὐ περὶ ἄρτου εἶπον ὑμῖν προσέχειν ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ Σαδδουκαίων;
12 Entonces se dieron cuenta de que él no les estaba advirtiendo sobre levadura de pan, sino sobre las enseñanzas de los fariseos y los Saduceos.
12 Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
12 τότε συνῆκαν ὅτι οὐκ εἶπε προσέχειν ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τοῦ ἄρτου, ἀλλ᾽ ἀπὸ τῆς διδαχῆς τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ Σαδδουκαίων.
13 Cuando llegó a la región de Cesarea de Filipo, Jesús le preguntó a sus discípulos: “¿Quién dice la gente que es el Hijo del hombre?”
13 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
13 Ἐλθὼν δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὰ μέρη Καισαρείας τῆς Φιλίππου ἠρώτα τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ λέγων· τίνα με λέγουσιν οἱ ἄνθρωποι εἶναι τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου;
14 “Algunos dicen que Juan el Bautista, otros dicen que Elías, y otros dicen que Jeremías o uno de los otros profetas”, respondieron ellos.
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
14 οἱ δὲ εἶπον· οἱ μὲν Ἰωάννην τὸν βαπτιστήν, ἄλλοι δὲ Ἠλίαν, ἕτεροι δὲ Ἱερεμίαν ἢ ἕνα τῶν προφητῶν.
15 “¿Y ustedes?” preguntó él. “¿Quién dicen ustedes que soy yo?”
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
15 λέγει αὐτοῖς· ὑμεῖς δὲ τίνα με λέγετε εἶναι;
16 “Tú eres el Mesías, el Hijo del Dios viviente”, respondió Simón Pedro.
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
16 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Σίμων Πέτρος εἶπε· σὺ εἶ ὁ Χριστὸς ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ τοῦ ζῶντος.
17 “Verdaderamente eres bendito, Simón hijo de Juan”, le dijo Jesús. “Porque esto no te fue revelado por carne ni sangre humana, sino por mi Padre que está en el cielo.
17 Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
17 καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· μακάριος εἶ, Σίμων Βαριωνᾶ, ὅτι σὰρξ καὶ αἷμα οὐκ ἀπεκάλυψέ σοι, ἀλλ᾽ ὁ πατήρ μου ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.
18 También te digo que tú eres Pedro, y sobre esta roca edificaré mi iglesia, y los poderes de la muerte no la destruirán.
18 I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.
18 κἀγὼ δέ σοι λέγω ὅτι σὺ εἶ Πέτρος, καὶ ἐπὶ ταύτῃ τῇ πέτρᾳ οἰκοδομήσω μου τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, καὶ πύλαι ᾅδου οὐ κατισχύσουσιν αὐτῆς.
19 Te daré las llaves del reino de los cielos, y todo lo que prohíbas en la tierra, será prohibido en los cielos; y todo lo que permitas en la tierra, será permitido en los cielos”.
19 I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
19 καὶ δώσω σοι τὰς κλεῖς τῆς βασιλείας τῶν οὐρανῶν, καὶ ὃ ἐὰν δήσῃς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἔσται δεδεμένον ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς, καὶ ὃ ἐὰν λύσῃς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἔσται λελυμένον ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.
20 Entonces le advirtió a sus discípulos de no decirle a nadie que él era el Mesías.
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
20 τότε διεστείλατο τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἵνα μηδενὶ εἴπωσιν ὅτι αὐτός ἐστιν [Ἰησοῦς] ὁ Χριστός.
21 A partir de entonces Jesús comenzó a explicarle a sus discípulos que él tendría que ir a Jerusalén, y que sufriría terriblemente en manos de los ancianos, de los jefes de los sacerdotes y de los maestros religiosos, y que lo matarían, pero que él se levantaría otra vez al tercer día.
21 From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
21 Ἀπὸ τότε ἤρξατο ὁ Ἰησοῦς δεικνύειν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ὅτι δεῖ αὐτὸν ἀπελθεῖν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα καὶ πολλὰ παθεῖν ἀπὸ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ ἀρχιερέων καὶ γραμματέων καὶ ἀποκτανθῆναι, καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ἐγερθῆναι.
22 Pedro llevó a Jesús con él aparte y comenzó a decirle que no era bueno que hablara así. “¡Dios no permita, Señor, que algo así llegue a ocurrirte!” le dijo.
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
22 καὶ προσλαβόμενος αὐτὸν ὁ Πέτρος ἤρξατο ἐπιτιμᾶν αὐτῷ λέγων· ἵλεώς σοι, Κύριε· οὐ μὴ ἔσται σοι τοῦτο.
23 Jesús se volvió hacia Pedro y le dijo: “¡Aléjate de mi, Satanás! ¡Eres una trampa para hacerme tropezar, porque estás pensando humanamente, y no como Dios piensa!”
23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
23 ὁ δὲ στραφεὶς εἶπε τῷ Πέτρῳ· ὕπαγε ὀπίσω μου, σατανᾶ· σκάνδαλόν μου εἶ· ὅτι οὐ φρονεῖς τὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἀλλὰ τὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων.
24 Entonces Jesús le dijo a sus discípulos: “El que quiera seguirme, debe negarse a sí mismo, tomar su cruz y seguirme.
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
24 Τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπε τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ· εἴ τις θέλει ὀπίσω μου ἐλθεῖν, ἀπαρνησάσθω ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι.
25 Porque el que quiera salvar su vida, la perderá, y el que pierda la vida por mi causa, la ganará.
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
25 ὃς γὰρ ἂν θέλῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ σῶσαι, ἀπολέσει αὐτήν· ὃς δ᾽ ἂν ἀπολέσῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ, εὑρήσει αὐτήν.
26 ¿Qué beneficio tiene ganar el mundo entero y perder la vida? ¿Qué darán ustedes a cambio de su vida?
26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
26 τί γὰρ ὠφελεῖται ἄνθρωπος ἐὰν τὸν κόσμον ὅλον κερδήσῃ, τὴν δὲ ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ζημιωθῇ; ἢ τί δώσει ἄνθρωπος ἀντάλλαγμα τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ;
27 Porque el Hijo del hombre vendrá en la gloria de su Padre, junto con sus ángeles. Entonces le dará a cada uno lo que merece conforme a lo que haya hecho.
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will give to everyone according to his deeds.
27 μέλλει γὰρ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεσθαι ἐν τῇ δόξῃ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ, καὶ τότε ἀποδώσει ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὴν πρᾶξιν αὐτοῦ.
28 Les digo la verdad: hay algunos aquí que no morirán antes de que vean al Hijo del hombre venir en su reino”.
28 Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
28 ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, εἰσί τινες τῶν ὧδε ἑστηκότων, οἵτινες οὐ μὴ γεύσωνται θανάτου ἕως ἂν ἴδωσι τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐρχόμενον ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Then; when? When Peter said, "Be it far from Thee, this shall not be unto Thee;" and was told, "Get thee behind me, Satan." For He was by no means satisfied with the mere rebuke, but, willing also more abundantly to show both the extravagance of what Peter had said, and the benefit of His passion, He saith, "Thy word …

Or how could Peter have been in ignorance, to whom the Lord gave testimony, that flesh and blood had not revealed to him, but the Father, who is in heaven?

… had actually come,--as Simeon, or Anna, who immediately recognized Jesus when He was born, or Elisabeth, who in the Spirit recognized Him when He was conceived, or Peter, who said by the revelation of the Father, "Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God."
