issues when trying to push a local repo to a github repo

I'm brand new to git and I'm having major issue when trying to push a local repo to github. I set up a remote repo called origin with my github repo SSH address. Then when I try to push I keep getting the following issues:

Macintosh:thinkful projects adityagorti6$ git remote -v
origin  [email protected]:speedrage56/Thinkful-Repo.git (fetch)
origin  [email protected]:speedrage56/Thinkful-Repo.git (push)
Macintosh:thinkful projects adityagorti6$ git push -u origin master
The authenticity of host 'github.com (207.97.227.239)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 16:27:ac:a5:76:28:2d:36:63:1b:56:4d:eb:df:a6:48.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,207.97.227.239' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Any help would be appreciated.

Have you followed the guide to setup a new git repository on github?, by that I mean that you have to add your public key on github so you can login later with it, here is a link showing the process:

Github guide

Hope you get it working :)

Your public key that you uploaded to GitHub doesn't work with the private key on your computer. You should follow the instructions with uploading your public key.

Alternatively, you could use the HTTP protocol, but it's not as suited to this task.
