Mark 8:14-34

¹⁴And they forgot to take bread; and they had but one loaf with them in the ship.

¹⁵And he charged them, saying: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.

¹⁶And they reasoned among themselves, saying: Because we have no bread.

¹⁷Which Jesus knowing, saith to them: Why do you reason, because you have no bread? do you not yet know nor understand? have you still your heart blinded?

¹⁸Having eyes, see you not? and having ears, hear you not? neither do you remember.

¹⁹When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up? They say to him, Twelve.

²⁰When also the seven loaves among four thousand, how many baskets of fragments took you up? And they say to him, Seven.

²¹And he said to them: How do you not yet understand?

²²And they came to Bethsaida; and they bring to him a blind man, and they besought him that he would touch him.

²³And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him out of the town; and spitting upon his eyes, laying his hands on him, he asked him if he saw any thing.

²⁴And looking up, he said: I see men as it were trees, walking.

²⁵After that again he laid his hands upon his eyes, and he began to see, and was restored, so that he saw all things clearly.

²⁶And he sent him into his house, saying: Go into thy house, and if thou enter into the town, tell nobody.

²⁷And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And in the way, he asked his disciples, saying to them: Whom do men say that I am?

²⁸Who answered him, saying: John the Baptist; but some Elias, and others as one of the prophets.

²⁹Then he saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Peter answering said to him: Thou art the Christ.

³⁰And he strictly charged them that they should not tell any man of him.

³¹And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the ancients and by the high priests, and the scribes, and be killed: and after three days rise again.

³²And he spoke the word openly. And Peter taking him, began to rebuke him.

³³Who turning about and seeing his disciples, threatened Peter, saying: Go behind me, Satan, because thou savorest not the things that are of God, but that are of men.

³⁴And calling the multitude together with his disciples, he said to them: If any man will follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
