Matthew 16

¹Then came the Pharises and Sadduces, and did tempt him, desiring him to shew them a signe from heauen.

²But he answered, and said vnto them, When it is euening, ye say, Faire wether: for ye skie is red.

³And in the morning ye say, To day shall be a tempest: for the skie is red and lowring. O hypocrites, ye can discerne the face of the skie, and can ye not discerne the signes of the times?

⁴The wicked generation, and adulterous seeketh a signe, but there shall no signe be giuen it, but that signe of the Prophet Ionas: so hee left them, and departed.

⁵And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread with them.

⁶Then Iesus said vnto them, Take heede and beware of the leauen of the Pharises and Sadduces.

⁷And they reasoned among themselues, saying, It is because we haue brought no bread.

⁸But Iesus knowing it, saide vnto them, O ye of litle faith, why reason you thus among your selues, because ye haue brought no bread?

⁹Doe ye not yet perceiue, neither remember the fiue loaues, when there were fiue thousand men, and how many baskets tooke ye vp?

¹⁰Neither the seuen loaues when there were foure thousande men, and howe many baskets tooke ye vp?

¹¹Why perceiue ye not that I said not vnto you concerning bread, that ye shoulde beware of the leauen of the Pharises and Sadduces?

¹²Then vnderstood they that he had not said that they should beware of the leauen of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharises, and Sadduces.
