< Luke 9 >

1 And, calling together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to be curing, diseases;
Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure 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 YHWH, and to heal the sick.
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 unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
4 And, into whatsoever house ye enter, there, abide, and, thence, be going forth.
And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence 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 whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very 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 they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.
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;
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of 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 of some, that EliYah had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.
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, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired 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 the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the 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,
And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of YHWH, and healed them that 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 when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert 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 unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat 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 they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
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;
Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, 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 did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them 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 alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?
19 And they, answering, said John the Immerser; But some, Elijah, and others, that, some prophet of the ancients, hath arisen.
They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, EliYah; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.
20 And he said to them—But who say, ye, that I am? And, Peter, answering, said—The Christ of God!
He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Kepha answering said, The Messiah of YHWH.
21 He, however, sternly admonishing them, gave charge that, unto no one, should they be telling this;
And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing;
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, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.
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 them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, 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 whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall 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 advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
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 whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.
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 of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of YHWH.
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 an eight days after these sayings, he took Kepha and John and James, and went up into a 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 prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.
30 And lo! two men, were conversing with him, who, indeed, were Moses and Elijah, —
And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and EliYah:
31 who, appearing in glory, were speaking as to his departure, which he was about to fulfil in Jerusalem.
Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish 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 Kepha and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that 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 departed from him, Kepha said unto Yahushua, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for EliYah: not knowing what he said.
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.
While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared 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 there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear 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 when the voice was past, Yahushua was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had 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, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people 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 of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.
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 taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.
40 And I begged of thy disciples, that they would cast it out, and they could not.
And I besought thy disciples to cast him 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 Yahushua answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.
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 yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him. And Yahushua rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again 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 mighty power of YHWH. But while they wondered every one at all things which Yahushua did, he said unto 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.
Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered 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 understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.
46 But there entered a reasoning among them, as to who of them should be greatest.
Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
47 And, Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their heart, taking a child, placed it near himself, —
And Yahushua, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by 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 said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall 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 John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
50 And Jesus said unto him—Do not forbid; for, whosoever is not against you, is, for you.
And Yahushua said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that 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, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly 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 sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, 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 as though he would go 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 when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Rabbi, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as EliYah did?
55 But, turning, he rebuked them.
But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
56 And they journeyed into a different village.
For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. 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, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Rabbi, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
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 Yahushua said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to 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 unto another, Follow me. But he said, Rabbi, suffer me first to go and 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.
Yahushua said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of YHWH.
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 another also said, Rabbi, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at 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.
And Yahushua said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of YHWH.
