« Tu es Petrus et super hanc petram ædificábo Ecclésiam meam et portæ inferí non præ valebunt adversus eam et tibi dabo claves regni cœlorum. »

« Tu es Pierre, et sur cette pierre je bâtirai mon Eglise, et les portes de l’enfer ne prévaudront point contre elle. Je te donnerai les clefs du Royaume des Cieux. » (Matthieu XVI, 18-19)

La photo est très belle : merci :-)

Et en anglais:

“Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I shall build my church. And the flames of hell shall not prevail against it: and I shall thee the keys to the kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 16:18-19

This is a fantastic perspective!

And in Italian:

“Tu sei Pietro, e su questa pietra costruiro la mia chiesa. E le fiamme dell’inferno non prevaranno contro di lei: e a te daro le chiavi del regno dei cieli”.

Thanks Massimo. We’ll soon beat Wikipedia on this subject!
