Mark 9
1 And he was saying to them: Verily, say unto you—There, are, certain of those here standing, who shall in nowise taste of death, until they see the kingdom of God, already come in power.
And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There are some of those standing here who will not taste of death, till they have seen that the kingdom of God hath come 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, alone, —and he was transformed before them;
And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, and leadeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them.
3 and his garments became brilliant, exceeding white, such as, no fuller on the earth, is able, so, to whiten.
And his garments became glistening, very white, so as no fuller on earth can whiten.
4 And there appeared unto them Elijah, with Moses, —and they were conversing with Jesus.
And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.
5 And Peter, answering, saith unto Jesus—Rabbi! it is, delightful, for us to be, here, —let us therefore make three tents, for thee, one, and, for Moses, one, and, for Elijah, one;
And Peter answering saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
6 for he knew not what he should answer, for, greatly affrighted, had they become.
For he knew not what to answer; for they were struck with terror.
7 And there came a cloud, overshadowing them, and there came a voice, out of the cloud, —This is, my Son, the Beloved, Be hearkening unto him.
And there came a cloud overshadowing them; and a voice came out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son; hear him.
8 And, suddenly looking round, no longer, saw they, anyone, with them, save, Jesus only.
And suddenly looking round, they no longer saw any one but Jesus alone with themselves.
9 And, as they were coming down out of the mountain, he charged them, that, unto no one, they should narrate what they had seen, save whenever the Son of Man, from among the dead should arise.
And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them to give no account of what they had seen to any one, till the Son of man should have risen from the dead.
10 And, the word, they held fast unto themselves, discussing what was, the rising from among the dead.
And they kept these words in mind, questioning one another what rising from the dead might mean.
11 And they began to question him, saying—The Scribes, say, that, Elijah, must needs come, first?
And they asked him, saying, How is it that the Pharisees and scribes say that Elijah must come first?
12 And, he, said unto them—Elijah, indeed, coming first, restoreth all things; and yet, how is it written, regarding the Son of Man, that, many things, he must suffer, and be set at nought?
And he said to them, Elijah cometh first, and restoreth all things. And how hath it been written of the Son of man? that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.
13 But I say unto you—Elijah also, hath come, and they have done with him, whatsoever they pleased, —according as it is written regarding him.
But I say to you that Elijah hath come, and they have done to him whatever they would; as it hath been written concerning him.
14 And, coming unto the disciples, they saw a large multitude around them, and Scribes discussing with them.
And coming to the disciples, they saw a great multitude about them, and scribes debating with them.
15 And, straightway, all the multitude, seeing him, were greatly amazed, and, running near, began saluting him.
And immediately the whole multitude on seeing him was struck with awe, and running to him, saluted him.
16 And he questioned them—What are ye discussing with them?
And he asked them, About what are ye debating with them?
17 And one out of the multitude answered him—Teacher! I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;
And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit.
18 and, wheresoever it seizeth him, it teareth him, and he foameth, and grindeth his teeth, and weareth himself out; —and I spake to thy disciples, that they should cast it out, and they could not.
And wherever it seizeth hold of him, it throweth him down; and he foameth and gnasheth his teeth; and he pineth away. And I spoke to thy disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.
19 But, he, answering, saith—O faithless generation! how long, shall I be with you? how long, shall I bear with you? Bring him unto me!
He answereth and saith to them, O unbelieving generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.
20 And they brought him unto him. And, seeing him, the spirit, straightway tare him, —and, falling upon the ground, he wallowed, foaming.
And they brought him to him. And as soon as he saw him, the spirit convulsed him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed, foaming.
21 And he questioned his father—How long a time, is it, that, this, hath befallen him? and he said—From childhood;
And he asked his father, How long hath it been thus with him? And he said, From a child;
22 and, many times, hath it cast him, both into fire, and into waters, that it might destroy him; but, if anything be possible to thee, help us, have compassion upon us.
and it hath often cast him both into fire, and into water, to destroy him; but if thou art able to do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 And, Jesus, said unto him—As for this, If it be possible to thee, all things, are possible, to him who hath faith.
Jesus said to him, If thou art able? All things are possible for him that believeth.
24 Straightway crying out, the father of the child was saying—I have faith! help my, want, of faith.
The father of the child immediately cried out and said, I believe; help thou my unbelief.
25 And Jesus, seeing that a multitude is running together, rebuked the impure spirit, saying unto it—Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I, give orders unto thee: Come forth out of him, and do not, any more, enter into him.
And Jesus seeing that the multitude came running together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 And, crying out, and greatly mangling him, it came forth; and he became as if dead, so that, the more part, were saying—He is dead!
And uttering a cry, and convulsing him much, it came out of him. And he became as one dead; so that very many said, He is dead.
27 But, Jesus, grasping his hand, raised him, and he stood up.
But Jesus, taking hold of his hand, raised him, and he stood up.
28 And, when he had gone into a house, his disciples, privately, were questioning him—Why, were, we, not able to cast it out?
And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast it out?
29 And he said unto them—This kind, by nothing, can come out, save, by prayer.
And he said to them, This kind can go out by nothing, except by prayer.
30 And, from thence, going forth, they were journeying through Galilee, —and he was not wishing that any should get to know it;
And departing thence, they passed through Galilee; and he would not that any one should know it.
31 for he was teaching his disciples and saying [unto them], The Son of Man, is to be delivered up, into the hands of men, and they will slay him, —and, being slain, after three days, will he arise.
For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he hath been put to death, after three days he will rise again.
32 But they were not understanding the declaration, and feared, to question, him.
But they understood not what he said, and were afraid to ask him.
33 And they came into Capernaum. And, happening to be, in the house, he was questioning them—What, in the way, were ye discussing?
And they came to Capernaum; and having come into the house, he asked them, About what were ye disputing on the road?
34 And they were silent; for, with one another, they had discussed in the way, who should be greatest.
But they were silent; for on the road they had been disputing with one another, who was greatest.
35 And, taking a seat, he addressed the twelve, and saith unto them—If anyone willeth to be, first, he shall be, least of all, and, minister of all.
And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them, If any one desire to be first, he will be last of all, and servant of all.
36 And, taking a child, he set it in the midst of them, —and, folding it in his arms, said unto them—
And he took a child, and placed him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them,
37 Whosoever, unto, [one of] these children, shall give welcome, upon my name, unto me, giveth welcome; and, whosoever, unto me, giveth welcome, not, unto me, giveth welcome, but, unto him that sent me.
Whoever receiveth one of these children in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
38 John said unto him—Teacher! we saw someone, in thy name, casting out demons, —and we forbade him, because he was not following with us.
John said to him, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in thy name who followeth not us; and we forbade him, because he did not follow us.
39 But, Jesus, said—Do not forbid him! For, no one, is there, who shall do a work of power in my name, and have power, soon, to revile me;
But Jesus said, Forbid him not. For no one, who shall do a miracle in my name, can readily speak evil of me.
40 For, whosoever is not, against, us, is, for, us;
For he that is not against us is for us.
41 For, whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water, in name that, Christ’s, ye are, Verily! I say unto you, in nowise, shall lose his reward.
For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, truly do I say to you, he will not lose his reward.
42 And, whosoever shall cause to stumble one of these little ones that believe, it is, seemly, for him, rather, if there is hung a large millstone about his neck, and he is cast into the sea.
And whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe to fall away, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be cast into the sea.
43 And, if thy hand shall cause thee to stumble, cut it off, —it is, seemly, for thee, maimed, to enter into life, rather than having, the two hands, to depart into the gehenna, into the fire that is not quenched; (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand cause thee to fall away, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having the two hands to go away into hell, into the fire that is unquenchable. (Geenna g1067)
45 And, if thy foot be causing thee to stumble, cut it off, —it is, seemly, for thee, to enter into life, lame, rather than having, the two feet, to be cast into the gehenna; (Geenna g1067)
And if thy foot is causing thee to fall away, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having the two feet to be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
47 And, if thine eye be causing thee to stumble, thrust it out, —it is, seemly, for thee, one-eye, to enter into the kingdom of God, rather than having, two eyes, to be cast into gehenna, (Geenna g1067)
And if thine eye is causing thee to fall away, pluck it out; it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell, (Geenna g1067)
48 Where, their worm, dieth not, and, the fire, is not quenched,
where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
49 For, everyone, with fire, shall be salted.
For every one will be salted with fire.
50 Salt is, good: but, if, salt, become, saltless, wherewith will ye, prepare, it? Have, within yourselves, salt, and be at peace, one with another.
Salt is good; but if the salt have lost its saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.
