< Mark 9 >
1 And he said to them, Truly I say to you, there are some of those who have stood here, who will, no, not taste of death until they see the kingdom of God come in power.
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.
2 And after six days Jesus takes Peter and James and John, and leads them up onto a high mountain alone, in private. And he was transfigured before them,
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;
3 and his garments became glistening, exceedingly white, as snow, such as no fuller on earth is able to whiten.
and his garments became brilliant, exceeding white, such as, no fuller on the earth, is able, so, to whiten.
4 And Elijah with Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.
And there appeared unto them Elijah, with Moses, —and they were conversing with Jesus.
5 And having responded, Peter says to Jesus, Rabbi, 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.
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;
6 For he knew not what he would say, for they were frightened.
for he knew not what he should answer, for, greatly affrighted, had they become.
7 And a cloud developed overshadowing them. And a voice came out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him.
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.
8 And suddenly having looked around, they saw no man anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.
And, suddenly looking round, no longer, saw they, anyone, with them, save, Jesus only.
9 And as they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no man what they saw, except when the Son of man will rise from the dead.
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.
10 And they kept the saying to themselves, discussing what is the rising from the dead.
And, the word, they held fast unto themselves, discussing what was, the rising from among the dead.
11 And they questioned him, saying, The scholars say that Elijah must first come.
And they began to question him, saying—The Scribes, say, that, Elijah, must needs come, first?
12 And having answered, he said to them, Elijah indeed comes first and restores all. And how it is written for the Son of man, that he would suffer many things and be rejected.
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?
13 But I say to you, that Elijah has also come, and they did to him as much as they wanted, just as it is written for him.
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.
14 And when they came to the disciples he saw a great multitude around them, and scholars disputing with them.
And, coming unto the disciples, they saw a large multitude around them, and Scribes discussing with them.
15 And straightaway all the multitude, having noticed him, were startled. And running near they greeted him.
And, straightway, all the multitude, seeing him, were greatly amazed, and, running near, began saluting him.
16 And he questioned the scholars, What are ye disputing with them?
And he questioned them—What are ye discussing with them?
17 And having answered, one from the multitude said, Teacher, I brought my son to thee, who has a mute spirit.
And one out of the multitude answered him—Teacher! I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;
18 And wherever it seizes him, it tears him, and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and becomes limp. And I spoke to thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they were not able.
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.
19 And having answered him, he says, O faithless generation, how long will I be with you? How long will I endure you? Bring him to me.
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!
20 And they brought him to him. And when he saw him, straightaway the spirit convulsed him. And having fallen on the ground, he wallowed, foaming.
And they brought him unto him. And, seeing him, the spirit, straightway tare him, —and, falling upon the ground, he wallowed, foaming.
21 And he questioned his father, How much time is it since this has happened to him? And he said, From childhood.
And he questioned his father—How long a time, is it, that, this, hath befallen him? and he said—From childhood;
22 And it often casts him both into the fire and into the waters so that it might destroy him. But if thou can do anything, help us, having compassion toward us.
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.
23 And Jesus said to him, If thou are able to believe, all things are possible to him who believes.
And, Jesus, said unto him—As for this, If it be possible to thee, all things, are possible, to him who hath faith.
24 And straightaway the father of the child having cried out, he said with tears, I believe. Lord, help thou my unbelief.
Straightway crying out, the father of the child was saying—I have faith! help my, want, of faith.
25 And when Jesus saw that a crowd was running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Thou mute and deaf spirit, I command thee to come out of him, and enter into him no more.
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.
26 And having cried out, and having convulsed him much, it came out. And he became as if dead, so as for many to say that he was dead.
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!
27 But having taken him by the hand, Jesus lifted him up, and he arose.
But, Jesus, grasping his hand, raised him, and he stood up.
28 And when he came into the house, his disciples questioned him privately, We were not able to cast it out.
And, when he had gone into a house, his disciples, privately, were questioning him—Why, were, we, not able to cast it out?
29 And he said to them, This kind can come out by nothing, except by prayer and fasting.
And he said unto them—This kind, by nothing, can come out, save, by prayer.
30 And having departed from there, they passed through Galilee, and he did not want that any man would know it.
And, from thence, going forth, they were journeying through Galilee, —and he was not wishing that any should get to know it;
31 For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is delivered up into the hands of men, and they will kill him. And after being killed, he will rise the third day.
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.
32 But they did not understand the saying, and were afraid to question him.
But they were not understanding the declaration, and feared, to question, him.
33 And he came to Capernaum. And having become in the house he questioned them, What were ye deliberating among yourselves on the way?
And they came into Capernaum. And, happening to be, in the house, he was questioning them—What, in the way, were ye discussing?
34 But they were silent, for on the way they discussed among each other, who is greater.
And they were silent; for, with one another, they had discussed in the way, who should be greatest.
35 And having sat down, he called the twelve, and he says to them, If any man wants to be first, he will be last of all, and helper of all.
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.
36 And having taken a child, he set it in the midst of them. And after embracing it, he said to them,
And, taking a child, he set it in the midst of them, —and, folding it in his arms, said unto them—
37 Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, receives me, and whoever may receive me, does not receive me, but him who sent me.
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.
38 And John answered him, saying, Teacher, we saw a certain man, who does not follow us, casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow us.
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.
39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not, for there is no man who will do a mighty work in my name, and will be able quickly to speak evil of me.
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;
40 For he who is not against you is for you.
For, whosoever is not, against, us, is, for, us;
41 For whoever may give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye are of Christ, truly I say to you, he will, no, not lose his reward.
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.
42 And whoever may cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it is good for him instead, if a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
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.
43 And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off. It is good for thee to enter into life maimed, than having thy two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, (Geenna )
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 )
44 where their worm does not perish, and the fire is not quenched.
45 And if thy foot may cause thee to stumble, cut it off. It is good for thee to enter into life crippled, than having thy two feet to be cast into hell, into the unquenchable fire (Geenna )
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 )
46 where their worm does not perish, and the fire is not quenched.
47 And if thine eye may cause thee to stumble, pluck it out. It is good for thee to enter into the kingdom of God one-eyed, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire, (Geenna )
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 )
48 where their worm does not perish, and the fire is not quenched.
Where, their worm, dieth not, and, the fire, is not quenched,
49 For every man will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt material.
For, everyone, with fire, shall be salted.
50 The salt material is good, but if the salt material becomes saltless, by what will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace among each other.
Salt is, good: but, if, salt, become, saltless, wherewith will ye, prepare, it? Have, within yourselves, salt, and be at peace, one with another.
