¹Ary ny Fariseo sy ny Sadoseo nankeo aminy, dia naka fanahy Azy ka nangataka Azy haneho famantarana aminy avy any an-danitra.

¹And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, did question him, to shew to them a sign from the heaven,

²Ary Izy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Nony hariva, dia hoy ianareo: Ho tsara ny andro, fa mena ny lanitra.

²and he answering said to them, `Evening having come, ye say, Fair weather, for the heaven is red,

³Ary nony maraina, dia hoy ianareo: Ho ratsy ny andro, fa mena sy manjombona ny lanitra. Fantatrareo ny hamantatra ny tarehin'ny lanitra, fa ny famantarana ny fotoana dia tsy hainareo.

³and at morning, Foul weather to-day, for the heaven is red — gloomy; hypocrites, the face of the heavens indeed ye do know to discern, but the signs of the times ye are not able!

⁴Izay taranaka ratsy fanahy sy mijangajanga dia fatra-pitady famantarana; nefa tsy misy famantarana homena azy, afa-tsy ny famantarana ny amin'i Jona ihany. Ary nandao azy Jesosy ka lasa.

⁴`A generation evil and adulterous doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;` and having left them he went away.

⁵Ary rehefa tonga teny am-pita ny mpianatra, dia nanadino hitondra mofo izy.

⁵And his disciples having come to the other side, forgot to take loaves,

⁶Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Mihevera, ka mitandrema ianareo, fandrao azon'ny masirasiran'ny Fariseo sy ny Sadoseo.

⁶and Jesus said to them, `Beware, and take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees;`

⁷Dia niara-nisaina izy ka nanao hoe: Ny tsy nitondrantsika mofo angaha izany.

⁷and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, `Because we took no loaves.`

⁸Ary Jesosy nahalala izany, dia nanao hoe: Nahoana ianareo, ry kely finoana, no miara-misaina satria tsy manana mofo?

⁸And Jesus having known, said to them, `Why reason ye in yourselves, ye of little faith, because ye took no loaves?

⁹Tsy mbola mahafantatra va ianareo, ary tsy tsaroanareo va ny mofo dimy ho an'ny dimy arivo, ka firy harona moa no nangoninareo?

⁹do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets ye took up?

¹⁰na ny mofo fito ho an'ny efatra arivo, ka firy sobiky moa no nangoninareo?

¹⁰nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

¹¹Ahoana no tsy ahafantaranareo fa tsy ny amin'ny mofo no nolazaiko taminareo? Fa tandremo, fandrao azon'ny masirasiran'ny Fariseo sy ny Sadoseo.

¹¹how do ye not understand that I did not speak to you of bread — to take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?`

¹²Dia fantany fa tsy nasainy hitandrina izy, fandrao azo'ny masirasira fanaovana mofo, fa andrao azon'ny fampianaran'ny Fariseo sy ny Sadoseo.

¹²Then they understood that he did not say to take heed of the leaven of the bread, but of the teaching, of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

¹³Ary rehefa tonga tany amin'ny faritanin'i Kaisaria-filipo Jesosy, dia nanontany ny mpianany Izy ka nanao hoe: Ataon'ny olona ho iza moa ny Zanak'olona?[Na: (Aho)]

¹³And Jesus, having come to the parts of Cesarea Philippi, was asking his disciples, saying, `Who do men say me to be — the Son of Man?`

¹⁴Dia hoy ireo: Hoy ny sasany: Jaona Mpanao-batisa; ary hoy ny sasany: Elia; ary hoy ny sasany: Jeremia, na anankiray amin'ny mpaminany.

¹⁴and they said, `Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.`

¹⁵Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Fa ianareo kosa manao Ahy ho iza?

¹⁵He saith to them, `And ye — who do ye say me to be?`

¹⁶Ary namaly Simona Petera ka nanao hoe: Hianao no Kristy, Zanak'Andriamanitra velona.

¹⁶and Simon Peter answering said, `Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.`

¹⁷Dia namaly Jesosy ka nanao taminy hoe: Sambatra ianao, ry Simona Bar-jona; fa tsy nofo aman-drà no naneho anao izany, fa ny Raiko Izay any an-danitra.

¹⁷And Jesus answering said to him, `Happy art thou, Simon Bar-Jona, because flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.

¹⁸Ary Izaho milaza aminao koa: Hianao no Petera, ary ambonin'ity vatolampy ity no haoriko ny fiangonako; ary ny vavahadin'ny fiainan-tsi-hita tsy haharesy azy. [Petera = Vato; izahao Jao.1, 42] [Gr. eklesia] [Gr. Hadesy]

¹⁸`And I also say to thee, that thou art a rock, and upon this rock I will build my assembly, and gates of Hades shall not prevail against it;

¹⁹Homeko anao ny fanalahidin'ny fanjakan'ny lanitra; ka na inona na inona fehezinao eto ambonin'ny tany dia hofehezina any an-danitra; ary na inona na inona vahanao etỳ ambonin'ny tany dia hovahana any an-danitra.

¹⁹and I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.`

²⁰Ary tamin'izany dia nandrara ny mpianatra Izy mba tsy hilaza amin'olona akory fa Izy no Kristy.

²⁰Then did he charge his disciples that they may say to no one that he is Jesus the Christ.

²¹Hatramin'izany no vao natoron'i Jesosy ny mpianany fa tsy maintsy hankany Jerosalema Izy ka hampijalin'ny loholona sy ny lohan'ny mpisorona ary ny mpanora-dalàna, dia hovonoina, ary hatsangana amin'ny andro fahatelo.

²¹From that time began Jesus to shew to his disciples that it is necessary for him to go away to Jerusalem, and to suffer many things from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be put to death, and the third day to rise.

²²Ary Petera nanohina Azy hitanila kely ka niteny mafy Azy hoe: Sanatria aminao izany, Tompoko! Tsy ho aminao tokoa izany!

²²And having taken him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying, `Be kind to thyself, sir; this shall not be to thee;`

²³Fa Izy nihodina ka niteny tamin'i Petera hoe: Mankanesa ato ivohoko, ry Satana; fahatafintohinana amiko ianao, satria tsy misaina izay an'Andriamanitra ianao, fa izay an'ny olona.

²³and he having turned, said to Peter, `Get thee behind me, adversary! thou art a stumbling-block to me, for thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.`

²⁴Dia hoy Jesosy tamin'ny mpianany: Raha misy olona ta-hanaraka Ahy, aoka izy handà ny tenany sy hitondra ny hazo fijaliany ka hanaraka Ahy.

²⁴Then said Jesus to his disciples, `If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me,

²⁵Fa na iza na iza no ta-hamonjy ny ainy, dia hahavery azy; ary na iza na iza no hahavery ny ainy noho ny amiko, dia hahazo izany.

²⁵for whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake shall find it,

²⁶Fa inona moa no soa ho azon'ny olona, raha mahazo izao tontolo izao, kanefa very ny ainy? Ary inona no homen'ny olona ho takalon'ny ainy?

²⁶for what is a man profited if he may gain the whole world, but of his life suffer loss? or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?

²⁷Fa ho avy ny Zanak'olona amin'ny voninahitry ny Rainy, mbamin'ny anjeliny, dia hamaly ny olona rehetra araka ny nataony.Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa: Misy ny sasany eto izay tsy mba hanandrana fahafatesana mandra-pahitany ny Zanak'olona avy amin'ny fanjakany.

²⁷`For, the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of his Father, with his messengers, and then he will reward each, according to his work.

²⁸Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa: Misy ny sasany eto izay tsy mba hanandrana fahafatesana mandra-pahitany ny Zanak'olona avy amin'ny fanjakany.

²⁸Verily I say to you, there are certain of those standing here who shall not taste of death till they may see the Son of Man coming in his reign.`
