Luke 9
1 And, calling together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to be curing, diseases;
And having summoned the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases.
2 and sent them forth, to be proclaiming the kingdom of God, and to be healing;
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal those who were incapacitated.
3 and said unto them—Nothing, take ye for the journey, —neither staff, nor satchel, nor bread, nor silver, nor to have, two tunics.
And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staffs, nor bag, nor bread, nor silver, nor have two coats each.
4 And, into whatsoever house ye enter, there, abide, and, thence, be going forth.
And into whatever house ye may enter, remain there, and from there depart.
5 And, as many soever as shall not welcome you, in going forth from that city, the dust of your feet, shake ye off, for a witness against them.
And as many as will not receive you, when departing from that city, also shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 And they went forth, and were passing through, along the villages, —delivering the glad-message, and effecting cures in every direction.
And having departed, they passed through the villages, preaching the good news, and healing everywhere.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things which were coming to pass, and was utterly at a loss, because of its being said, by some, that, John, had been raised from the dead;
But Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him. And he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John was risen from the dead,
8 and, by some, that, Elijah, had appeared; and, by others, that, some prophet of the ancients, had arisen.
and by some that Elijah appeared, and by others that a prophet, one of the ancient men arose.
9 But Herod said—John, I myself, beheaded; but, who is this, concerning whom I am hearing such things as these? And he was seeking to see him.
And Herod said, I beheaded John, but who is this about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
10 And the Apostles, returning, related to him what great things they had done. And, taking them aside, he retired privately, into a city called Bethsaida.
And when the apostles returned, they related to him as many things as they did. And having taken them along, he withdrew in private into a desolate place of a city called Bethsaida.
11 But, the multitudes, getting to know, followed him; and, giving them welcome, he began speaking unto them concerning the kingdom of God, —and, them that had need of cure, he healed,
But the multitudes having known, they followed him. And having received them, he spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and he cured those who had need of healing.
12 And, the day, began to decline; and the twelve, coming near, said to him—Dismiss the multitude, that, going into the surrounding villages and hamlets, they may lodge, and find provisions; because, here, in a desert place, are we.
And the day began to decline, and the twelve having come near, they said to him, Send the multitude away, so that, after going into the villages and fields around, they may rest and find provision, because we are here in a desolate place.
13 But he said unto them—Give, ye, them to eat. They, however, said—We have not more than five loaves, and two fishes, —unless perhaps, we, should go, and buy food, for all this people.
But he said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, There are for us not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless, after going, we might buy food for all this people.
14 For there were about five thousand men. And he said unto his disciples—Make them recline, in companies of about fifty each.
For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in groups of fifty each.
15 And they did so, —and made, one and all, recline.
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16 And, taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up into heaven, he blessed them, and brake [them] up, and went on giving to the disciples, to set before the multitude;
And after taking the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke in pieces, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17 and they did all eat and were filled. And that which remained over to them, was taken up, —of broken pieces, twelve baskets.
And they ate, and were all filled. And there were taken up to them of the remaining fragments, twelve baskets.
18 And, it came to pass, when he was praying in solitude, the disciples, were with him. And he questioned them, saying—Who do the multitudes say that I am?
And it came to pass, as he was praying privately, the disciples were with him. And he questioned them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 And they, answering, said John the Immerser; But some, Elijah, and others, that, some prophet of the ancients, hath arisen.
And having answered, they said, John the immerser, but others, Elijah, and others, that a certain prophet of the ancient men arose.
20 And he said to them—But who say, ye, that I am? And, Peter, answering, said—The Christ of God!
And he said to them, But ye, who say ye that I am? And having answered, Peter said, The Christ of God.
21 He, however, sternly admonishing them, gave charge that, unto no one, should they be telling this;
But having chided them, he commanded to tell this to no man,
22 saying—The Son of Man must needs suffer, many things, and be rejected by the Elders and High priests and Scribes, and be slain, —and, on the third day, arise.
saying, It is necessary for the Son of man to suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scholars, and be killed, and the third day to rise.
23 And he was saying, unto all—If any one intendeth after me to come, Let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, —and be following me.
And he said to all, If any man wants to come behind me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
24 For, whosoever intendeth, his life, to save, shall lose it; but, whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same, shall save it?
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever may lose his life because of me, this man will save it.
25 For what doth a man profit, who hath gained the whole world, but hath lost, or been made to forfeit, himself?
For what is a man benefited, having gained the whole world, but having lost or having forfeited himself?
26 For, whosoever shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, of him, the Son of Man, will be ashamed, whensoever he shall come in his glory, and that of the Father, and of the holy messengers.
For whoever may be ashamed of me and of my words, the Son of man will be ashamed of this man when he comes in his glory, and of the Father, and of the holy agents.
27 But I tell you of a truth—There, are, some of those, here, standing, who shall in nowise taste of death, until they see the kingdom of God.
But I tell you truly, there are some of those who stand here, who will, no, not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
28 And it came to pass, after these words, about eight days, taking with him Peter and John and James, he went up into the mountain to pray.
And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, that after taking Peter and John and James, he went up onto the mountain to pray.
29 And it came to pass, while he was praying, that, the appearance of his face, was changed, and, his clothing, became white, effulgent.
And as he was praying, the appearance of his face became different, and his clothing glistening white.
30 And lo! two men, were conversing with him, who, indeed, were Moses and Elijah, —
And behold, two men talked with him, who were Moses and Elijah,
31 who, appearing in glory, were speaking as to his departure, which he was about to fulfil in Jerusalem.
who, having appeared in glory, spoke of his departure, which he was going to fulfill at Jerusalem.
32 Now, Peter, and they who were with him, had become heavy with sleep; but, waking up, they saw his glory, and the two men who were standing with him.
But Peter and those with him were weighed down with sleep, and having become awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.
33 And it came to pass, when they were being parted from him, Peter said unto Jesus—Master! it is, delightful, for us to be, here: Let us, therefore, make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: —not knowing what he said.
And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here, and we could make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah, not knowing what he was saying.
34 Now, while he was saying these things, there came a cloud, and it began to overshadow them, —and they were overcome with fear as they entered into the cloud.
And while he was speaking these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
35 And, a voice, came out of the cloud, saying—This, is my Son, the Chosen One: Unto him, be hearkening.
And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him.
36 And, when the voice came, there was found, Jesus alone. And they held their peace, and, unto no one, reported they, in those days, any of the things which they had seen.
And at the occurrence of the voice, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent, and informed no man in those days any of the things that they have seen.
37 And it came to pass, on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, that there met him a great multitude.
And it came to pass, on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him.
38 And lo! a man from the multitude, uttered a cry, saying—Teacher! I beg of thee, to look upon my son, because, my only begotten, he is.
And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee to look upon my son, because he is the only begotten to me.
39 And lo! a spirit, taketh him, and, suddenly, he crieth out, —and it convulseth him—with foaming, and with difficulty departeth from him, sorely bruising him.
And lo, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him with foaming. And it departs from him difficultly, injuring him.
40 And I begged of thy disciples, that they would cast it out, and they could not.
And I begged thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they could not.
41 And, making answer, Jesus said—O faithless and perverted generation! how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? Bring, hither, thy son.
And having answered, Jesus said, O faithless and perverted generation, how long will I be with you and endure you? Bring thy son here.
42 And, while yet he was coming, the demon tare him, and mangled him. But Jesus rebuked the impure spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
And as he was still coming, the demon tore him, and he convulsed. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 And they were all being struck with astonishment, at the majesty of God. And, while all were marvelling at all things which he was doing, he said unto his disciples:
And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while all were wondering at all the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,
44 Lay, ye, up in your ears, these words; for, the Son of Man, is about to be delivered up, into the hands of men.
Place ye these sayings into your ears, for the Son of man is going to be delivered up into the hands of men.
45 But, they, understood not this saying, and it had become veiled from them, that they might not grasp it, —and they were afraid to question him, concerning this saying.
But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
46 But there entered a reasoning among them, as to who of them should be greatest.
But a thought entered among them, which of them may be greater.
47 And, Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their heart, taking a child, placed it near himself, —
But having perceived the thought of their heart, having taken a child, Jesus stood it beside him,
48 and said unto them—Whosoever shall give welcome unto this child, on my name, unto me, giveth welcome; and, whosoever, unto me, giveth welcome, giveth welcome unto him that sent me forth. For, he who is least among you all, the same, is, great.
and he said to them, Whoever may receive this child in my name receives me, and whoever may receive me receives him who sent me, for he who exists smaller among you all, this man will be great.
49 But John, answering, said—Master! we saw some one, in thy name, casting out demons, —and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.
And having answered, John said, Master, we saw a certain man casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.
50 And Jesus said unto him—Do not forbid; for, whosoever is not against you, is, for you.
But Jesus said to him, Do not forbid, for he who is not against us is for us.
51 And it came to pass, when the days for taking him up were on the point of being fulfilled, even he himself, set, his face, to be journeying unto Jerusalem;
And it came to pass, while fulfilling the days for his ascension, that he also set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 and he sent messengers before his face, —and, taking their journey, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.
And he sent agents before his face, and they went. And having gone, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to make ready for him.
53 And they welcomed him not, because, his face, was for journeying unto Jerusalem.
And they did not receive him, because his face was going to Jerusalem.
54 And the disciples James and John, seeing it, said—Lord! wilt thou, that we bid fire come down from heaven, and destroy them?
And his disciples James and John having seen, they said, Lord, do thou want that we should call fire to come down from the sky, and consume them, as also Elijah did?
55 But, turning, he rebuked them.
But having turned around, he rebuked them, and said, Ye do not know what kind of spirit ye are.
56 And they journeyed into a different village.
For the Son of man came not to destroy the lives of men, but to save. And they went to another village.
57 And, as they were journeying on the road, one said unto him—I will follow thee, whithersoever thou shalt depart.
And it came to pass while they went on the way, a certain man said to him, I will follow thee wherever thou may go, Lord.
58 And Jesus said unto him—the foxes, have, dens, and, the birds of heaven, nests; but, the Son of Man, hath not where, his head, he may recline.
And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky, nests, but the Son of man has not where he might lay his head.
59 And he said unto another—Be following me! But, he, said—Suffer me, first, to depart, and bury my father.
And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me first, after departing, to bury my father.
60 And he said unto him—Leave, the dead, to bury their own dead; but, thou, departing, be declaring the kingdom of God.
But Jesus said to him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but thou, after departing, proclaim the kingdom of God.
61 And, yet another, said—I will follow thee, Lord; But, first, suffer me to bid adieu to them that are in my house.
And also another said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid farewell to those in my house.
62 But Jesus said [unto him] —No one, laying the hand on a plough and looking unto the things behind, is, fit, for the kingdom of God.
But Jesus said to him, No man, having put his hand to a plow, and looking to things behind, is fit for the kingdom of God.
