You are Peter, and I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
This reading comprises of the first three paragraphs of the six in the caput below. The reading is taken entirely from Matthew.

XC. Ubi Ihesus interrogat apostolos: quem me dicunt homines esse? et quæ secuntur, et dicit Petro: scandalum mihi es.
(Where Jesus asks the apostles: Whom do men say of me to be? And what follows, and says to Peter: Thou art a scandal to me.)

90: 1
And Jesus came into the quarters of Cæsarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples, saying: Whom do men say that I, the Son of man am? Thereupon they said: Some John the Baptist, and some others Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
2
Jesus saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answering said: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.
3
And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven. Then he commanded his disciples, that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
