Matthew 16:7-17

7 And they began discussing it among themselves, saying, "We brought no bread."

8 But ¹Jesus, aware of this, said, ²"O you of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves the fact that you have no bread?

9 ³Do you not yet perceive? Do you not remember ⁴the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you gathered?

10 Or ⁵the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you gathered?

11 How is it that you fail to understand that I did not speak about bread? ⁶Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees."

12 ⁷Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of ⁸the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

13 ⁹Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"

14 And they said, "Some say ¹⁰John the Baptist, others say ¹¹Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

15 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"

16 Simon Peter replied, ¹²"You are ¹³the Christ, ¹⁴the Son of ¹⁵the living God."

17 And Jesus answered him, ¹⁶"Blessed are you, ¹⁷Simon Bar-Jonah! For ¹⁸flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, ¹⁹but my Father who is in heaven.
