Mark 9
1 He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the Kingdom of God come with power."
And he said to them, Truly I say to you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.
2 After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.
And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, and leads them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.
3 His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.
And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.
4 Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.
And there appeared to them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.
5 Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
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 Elias.
6 For he did not know what to answer, for they became very afraid.
For he knew not what to say; for they were sore afraid.
7 A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him."
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 Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them anymore, except Jesus alone.
And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no one what things they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
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 They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the "rising from the dead" meant.
And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
11 They asked him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"
And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?
12 And he said to them, "Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. And why is it written of the Son of Man that he should suffer many things and be rejected?
And he answered and told them, Elias 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 tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him."
But I say to you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they listed, as it is written of him.
14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes questioning them.
And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.

16 He asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?"
And he asked the scribes, What question you with them?
17 And one out of the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;
And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought to you my son, which has a dumb spirit;
18 and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and wastes away. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren't able."
And wherever he takes him, he tears him: and he foams, and gnashes with his teeth, and pines away: and I spoke to your disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.
19 And answering, he said to them, "You unbelieving generation, how long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him to me."
He answers him, and says, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him to me.
20 They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.
And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

23 Jesus said to him, "'If you can?' All things are possible to him who believes."
Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes.
24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, "I believe. Help my unbelief."
And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help you my unbelief.
25 When Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again."
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 Having screamed, and convulsed greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead; so much that most of them said, "He is dead."
And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; so that many said, He is dead.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.

30 They went out from there, and passed through Galilee. He did not want anyone to know it.

For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.
32 But they did not understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.
But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.
33 He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you arguing on the way?"
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 were silent, for they had disputed one with another on the way about who was the greatest.
But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.
35 And he sat down, and called the twelve; and he said to them, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be last of all, and servant of all."
And he sat down, and called the twelve, and says to them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
36 He took a little child, and set him in the midst of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,
And he took a child, and set him in the middle of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said to them,
37 "Whoever receives one such little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me, does not receive me, but him who sent me."
Whoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receives me: and whoever shall receive me, receives not me, but him that sent me.
38 John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he was not following us."
And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in your name, and he follows not us: and we forbade him, because he follows not us.
39 But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.
But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
40 For whoever is not against us is for us.
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 the Christ, truly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.
For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to Christ, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.
42 Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he was thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.
And whoever shall 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 If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, (Geenna g1067)
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 shall be quenched: (Geenna g1067)

47 If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell, (Geenna g1067)

48 'where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.'
Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.
49 For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.
For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
50 Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how can you make it salty? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."
Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltiness, with which will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
