¹⁶ And Simon Peter made answer and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. ¹⁷ And Jesus made answer and said to him, A blessing on you, Simon Bar-jonah: because this knowledge has not come to you from flesh and blood, but from my Father in heaven. ¹⁸ And I say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock will my church be based, and the doors of hell will not overcome it.
