Peter's Confession of Christ

Wycliffe's Bible (Modern Spelling)

Mat 16:13–20

13 And Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea of Philippi, and asked his disciples, and said, Whom say men to be man’s Son?
14 And they said, Some John Baptist; others Elijah; and others Jeremy, or one of the prophets.
15 Jesus said to them, But whom say ye me to be?
16 Simon Peter answered, and said, Thou art Christ, the Son of God living or the son of quick God.
17 Jesus answered, and said to him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona; for flesh and blood showed not to thee, but my Father that is in heavens.
18 And I say to thee, that thou art Peter, and on this stone I shall build my church, and the gates of hell shall not have might or power, or strength, against it.
19 And to thee I shall give the keys of the kingdom of heavens; and what-ever thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound also in heavens; and whatever thou shalt unbind on earth, shall be unbound also in heavens.
20 Then he commanded to his disciples, that they should say to no man, that he was Jesus Christ.

29 Then he saith to them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answered, and said to him, Thou art Christ.
30 And he charged them, that they should not say of him to any man.

18 And it was done, when he was alone praying, his disciples were with him, and he asked them, and said, Whom say the people that I am?
19 And they answered, and said, John Baptist, others say Elijah, and or but others say, one prophet of the former is risen.
20 And he said to them, But whom say ye that I am? Simon Peter answered, and said, The Christ of God.
21 And he blaming them, commanded them that they should say to no man,
