< Mark 9 >

1 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There are some here of them that stand [by], who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God come with power.
And he said to them: Verily I say to you, There are some standing here, who will not taste of death, until they shall see the kingdom of God to be coming with power.
2 And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them;
And after six days, Jesus took Cephas and James and John, and led them to a high mountain, apart; and was transformed before them.
3 and his garments became glistering, exceeding white, so as no fuller on earth can whiten them.
And his raiment shone and was very white, like snow, so as men on earth can never whiten.
4 And there appeared unto them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.
And there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, in conversation with Jesus.
5 And Peter answereth and saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
And Cephas said to him: Rabbi, it is delightful for us to be here. And let us make three booths; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
6 For he knew not what to answer; for they became sore afraid.
But he did not know what he said, for they were in trepidation.
7 And there came a cloud overshadowing them: and there came a voice out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son: hear ye him.
And there was a cloud, and it overshadowed them. And a voice issued from the cloud, which said: This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him.
8 And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
And suddenly, when the disciples looked up, they saw no one with them, except Jesus only.
9 And as they were coming down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, save when the Son of man should have risen again from the dead.
And as they descended the mountain, he commanded them to tell no man what they had seen, till after the Son of man should be risen from the dead.
10 And they kept the saying, questioning among themselves what the rising again from the dead should mean.
And they kept that saying in their mind; and inquired, What doth this saying mean: " When he shall be risen from the dead!"
11 And they asked him, saying, [How is it] that the scribes say that Elijah must first come?
And they asked him, and said: Why then do the Scribes say, that Elijah must first come?
12 And he said unto them, Elijah indeed cometh first, and restoreth all things: and how is it written of the Son of man, that he should suffer many things and be set at nought?
He said to them: Elijah truly first cometh, to prepare all things: and, as it is written of the Son of man, he will suffer much, and be rejected.
13 But I say unto you, that Elijah is come, and they have also done unto him whatsoever they would, even as it is written of him.
But I say to you: That Elijah hath come; and they have done to him all that they desired, as it was written of him.
14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning with them.
And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude with them, and the Scribes disputing with them.
15 And straightway all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.
And immediately the multitude saw him, and were surprised: and they ran and saluted him.
16 And he asked them, What question ye with them?
And he asked the Scribes: What were ye disputing with them?
17 And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I brought unto thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit;
And one of the multitude replied, and said: Teacher, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a spirit that will not speak.
18 and wheresoever it taketh him, it dasheth him down: and he foameth, and grindeth his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast it out; and they were not able.
And wherever he seizeth him, he shaketh and teareth him: and he gnasheth his teeth, and pineth away. And I spoke to thy disciples, to cast him out; and they could not.
19 And he answereth them and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him unto me.
Jesus answered, and said to them: O incredulous generation! How long shall I be with you? how long bear with you? Bring him to me.
20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him grievously; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
And they brought him to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately he shook him; and he fell upon the ground, and wallowed and foamed.
21 And he asked his father, How long time is it since this hath come unto him? And he said, From a child.
And Jesus asked his father, how long a time he had been thus. He said to him: Lo, from his childhood.
22 And oft-times it hath cast him both into the fire and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.
And many times it hath thrown him into the fire, and into the water, to destroy him. But, if thou canst do any thing, aid me and have compassion on me.
23 And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst! All things are possible to him that believeth.
Jesus said to him: If thou canst believe; every thing can be, to him that believeth.
24 Straightway the father of the child cried out, and said, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
And immediately the father of the child cried out, while he wept and said: I believe; aid thou the defect of my faith.
25 And when Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
And when Jesus saw that the people were, running and collecting around him, he rebuked the unclean spirit, and said to him: Thou deaf and unspeaking spirit, I command thee, come out of him; and no more enter him.
26 And having cried out, and torn him much, he came out: and [the boy] became as one dead; insomuch that the more part said, He is dead.
And the demon cried out greatly, and bruised him, and came out. And he was as a dead person; so that many would say, he is dead.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.
And Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up.
28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, [How is it] that we could not cast it out?
And when Jesus entered the house, his disciples asked him privately: Why could not we cast him out?
29 And he said unto them, This kind can come out by nothing, save by prayer.
He saith to them: This kind can come out, by nothing but fasting and prayer.
30 And they went forth from thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.
And when he departed from there, they passed through Galilee: and he desired that no one might know him.
31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered up into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and when he is killed, after three days he shall rise again.
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 when he is killed, on the third day, he will rise.
32 But they understood not the saying, and were afraid to ask him.
But they did not understand that speech; and they were afraid to ask him.
33 And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house he asked them, What were ye reasoning on the way?
And they came to Capernaum. And when they entered the house, he asked them: What disputed ye among yourselves by the way?
34 But they held their peace: for they had disputed one with another on the way, who [was] the greatest.
And they were silent; for by the way they had contended with one another, which should be the great among them.
35 And he sat down, and called the twelve; and he saith unto them, If any man would be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.
And Jesus sat down, and called the twelve, and said to them: Whoever would be first, let him be last of all, and servitor to all.
36 And he took a little child, and set him in the midst of them: and taking him in his arms, he said unto them,
And he took a child, and set him in the midst, and took him in his arms and said to them:
37 Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
Whoever receiveth one in my name, like this child, he receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth not me only, but him that sent me.
38 John said unto him, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followed not us.
John said to him: Rabbi, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, and we forbad him, because he adhereth not to us.
39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man who shall do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.
Jesus said to them: Forbid him not; for there is no one who doeth mighty works in my name, that can readily speak evil of me.
40 For he that is not against us is for us.
Whoever therefore is not against you, is for you.
41 For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink, because ye are Christ’s, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
For whoever shall give you to drink a cup of water only, on the ground that ye are Messiah's followers, verily I say to you, he will not lose his reward.
42 And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it were better for him if a great millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
And whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to stumble, it were better for him, if a millstone were put to his neck, and he cast into the sea.
43 And if thy hand cause thee to stumble, cut it off: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed, rather than having thy two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand make thee offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than, having two hands, to go into hell; (Geenna g1067)
where their worm dieth not, and their fire is not extinguished.
45 And if thy foot cause thee to stumble, cut it off: it is good for thee to enter into life halt, rather than having thy two feet to be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy foot make thee offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lamed, than, having two feet, to fall into hell; (Geenna g1067)
where their worm dieth not, and their fire is not extinguished.
47 And if thine eye cause thee to stumble, cast it out: it is good for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell; (Geenna g1067)
And if thy eye make thee offend, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter with one eye into the kingdom of God, than, having two eyes, to fall into the hell of fire; (Geenna g1067)
48 where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
where their worm dieth not, and their fire is not extinguished.
49 For every one shall be salted with fire.
For every thing will be salted with fire; and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.
50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost its saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.
Salt is a good thing: but if the salt become insipid, with what will it be salted? Let there be salt in you: and be ye in peace, one with another.
