Matthew 16:19-21

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁹ I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind (declare to be improper and unlawful) on earth ^[a]must be what is already bound in heaven; and whatever you loose (declare lawful) on earth ^[b]must be what is already loosed in heaven.^(A)

²⁰ Then He sternly and strictly charged and warned the disciples to tell no one that He was Jesus the Christ.

²¹ From that time forth Jesus began [clearly] to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders and the high priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised ^[c]from death.
