¹ And he said to them, Truly I say to you, That there be some of them that stand here, which will not taste of death, till+ they have seen the kingdom of God come with power. ² And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, and leads them up into a high mountain apart+ by themselves: and he was transfigured before them. ³ And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them. ⁴ And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus. ⁵ And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. ⁶ For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. ⁷ And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. ⁸ And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves. ⁹ And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till+ the Son of man were risen from the dead. ¹⁰ And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean. ¹¹ And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elijah must first come? ¹² And he answered and told them, Elijah truly comes first, and restores all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nothing. ¹³ But I say to you, That Elijah is indeed come, and they have done to him anything they listed, as it is written of him. ¹⁴ And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them. ¹⁵ And saw all the people, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him. ¹⁶ And he asked the scribes, What question you with them? ¹⁷ And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought to you my son, which has a dumb spirit; ¹⁸ And wheresoever+ he takes him, he tears him: and he foams, and gnashes with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spoke to your disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not. ¹⁹ He answers him, and said, O faithless generation, how long+ will I be with you? how long+ will I suffer you? bring him to me. ²⁰ And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. ²¹ And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came to him? And he said, Of a child. ²² And ofttimes it has cast him into+ the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if you canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. ²³ + Jesus said to him, If you canst believe, all things are possible to him that believes. ²⁴ And immediately the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help my unbelief. ²⁵ When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, You dumb and deaf spirit, I charge you, come out of him, and enter no more into him. ²⁶ And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; so much that many said, He is dead. ²⁷ But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. ²⁸ And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately+ , Why could not we cast him out? ²⁹ And he said to them, This kind can come forward by nothing, but by prayer and fasting. ³⁰ And they departed from there, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know [it]. ³¹ For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him; and after that he is killed, he will rise the third day. ³² But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him. ³³ And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that you disputed among yourselves by the way? ³⁴ But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greats. ³⁵ And he sat down, and called the twelve, and said to them, If any man desire to be first, the same will be last of all, and servant of all. ³⁶ And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said to them, ³⁷ Whoever+ will receive one of such children in my name, receives me: and whoever+ will receive me, receives not me, but him that sent me. ³⁸ And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in your name, and he follows not us: and we forbad him, because he follows not us. ³⁹ But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which will do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. ⁴⁰ For he that is not against us is on our part. ⁴¹ For whoever+ will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to Christ, truly I say to you, he will not lose his reward. ⁴² And whoever+ will offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better+ for him that a millstone+ were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. ⁴³ And if your hand offend you, cut it off: it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never will be quenched: ⁴⁴ Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched. ⁴⁵ And if your foot offend you, cut it off: it is better for you to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never will be quenched: ⁴⁶ Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched. ⁴⁷ And if your eye offend you, pluck it out: it is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: ⁴⁸ Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched. ⁴⁹ For every one will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt. ⁵⁰ Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, with which+ will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
