I also say to you that you are ^[l](y)Peter, and upon this ^[m]rock I will build My church; and the gates of ^(z)Hades will not overpower it.

I will give you ^(aa)the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and ^(ab)whatever you bind on earth ^[n]shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth ^[o]shall have been loosed in heaven."

^(ac)Then He ^[p]warned the disciples that they should tell no one that He was ^[q](ad)the Christ.

^(ae)From that time ^[r]Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and ^(af)suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised up on the third day.
