Matthew 16:20-22

New Century Version

²⁰ Then Jesus warned his followers not to tell anyone he was the Christ.

Jesus Says that He Must Die

²¹ From that time on Jesus began telling his followers that he must go to Jerusalem, where the Jewish elders, the leading priests, and the teachers of the law would make him suffer many things. He told them he must be killed and then be raised from the dead on the third day.

²² Peter took Jesus aside and told him not to talk like that. He said, “God save you from those things, Lord! Those things will never happen to you!”
