Matthew 16:1-12

WYC

NIV

1 And the Pharisees and the Sadducees came to him tempting [And Pharisees and Sadducees tempting him came nigh to him], and prayed him to show them a token from heaven.
1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tested him by asking him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 And he answered, and said to them, When the eventide is come, ye say, It shall be clear, for heaven is ruddy; [+And he answering said to them, The evening made, ye say, It shall be clear, for the heaven is red, either ruddy;]
2 He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’
3 and the morrowtide, To day tempest [and the morrow, Made to day tempest], for heaven shineth heavily. Then ye know how to deem [wisely] the face of heaven, but ye be not able to know the tokens of times [but ye be not able to know the signs of times].
3 and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
4 An evil generation and adulterous seeketh a token; and a token shall not be given to it, but the token of Jonas, the prophet. And when he had left them, he went forth [he went away].
4 A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Jesus then left them and went away.
5 And when his disciples came over the sea, they forgot to take loaves.
5 When they went across the lake, the disciples forgot to take bread.
6 And he said to them, Behold ye, and beware of the sourdough of Pharisees and of Sadducees.
6 “Be careful,” Jesus said to them. “Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 And they thought among them[selves], and said [saying], For we have not taken loaves.
7 They discussed this among themselves and said, “It is because we didn’t bring any bread.”
8 But Jesus witting said to them, What think ye among you of little faith, for ye have not taken loaves?
8 Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked, “You of little faith, why are you talking among yourselves about having no bread?
9 Yet ye understand not, neither have mind of five loaves into five thousand of men, and how many baskets ye took [and how many coffins ye took]?
9 Do you still not understand? Don’t you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
10 neither of seven loaves into four thousand of men, and how many baskets ye took?
10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
11 Why understand ye not, for I said not to you of bread, Be ye ware of the sourdough of Pharisees and of Sadducees?
11 How is it you don’t understand that I was not talking to you about bread? But be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
12 Then they understood, that he said not to beware of [the] sourdough of loaves, but of the teaching of Pharisees and of Sadducees.
12 Then they understood that he was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
