Mark 8:26-33 God's Word Translation (GW)

26. Jesus told him when he sent him home, “Don’t go into the village.”

27. Then Jesus and his disciples went to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say I am?”

28. They answered him, “Some say you are John the Baptizer, others Elijah, still others one of the prophets.”

29. He asked them, “But who do you say I am?”Peter answered him, “You are the Messiah!”

30. He ordered them not to tell anyone about him.

31. Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man would have to suffer a lot. He taught them that he would be rejected by the leaders, the chief priests, and the experts in Moses’ Teachings. He would be killed, but after three days he would come back to life.

32. He told them very clearly what he meant.Peter took him aside and objected to this.

33. Jesus turned, looked at his disciples, and objected to what Peter said. Jesus said, “Get out of my way, Satan! You aren’t thinking the way God thinks but the way humans think.”
