Luke 9
1 Then Jesus called the Twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and power to cure diseases.
AND Jeshu called his twelve, and gave them power and authority over all demons and diseases, to heal.
2 And He sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.
And he sent them to proclaim the kingdom of Aloha, and to heal the diseased.
3 “Take nothing for the journey,” He told them, “no staff, no bag, no bread, no money, no second tunic.
And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor silver; nor two tunics shall you have.
4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that area.
And into whatever house you enter, there be, and from thence go forth.
5 If anyone does not welcome you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that town, as a testimony against them.”
And whoever will not receive you, when you depart from that city the dust also from your feet shake off as a testimony against them.
6 So they set out and went from village to village, preaching the gospel and healing people everywhere.
And the apostles went forth and itinerated in the villages and the cities, and evangelized and healed in every place.
7 When Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, he was perplexed. For some were saying that John had risen from the dead,
But Herodes, Tetrarka, heard all that was done by his hand, and was astonished; for men said that Juchanon had risen from the house of the dead.
8 others that Elijah had appeared, and still others that a prophet of old had arisen.
But others said that Elia had appeared, and others that a prophet from the former prophets had risen.
9 “I beheaded John,” Herod said, “but who is this man I hear such things about?” And he kept trying to see Jesus.
And Herodes said, The head of Juchanon I have cut off; but who is this of whom I hear these (things)? And he willed to see him.
10 Then the apostles returned and reported to Jesus all that they had done. Taking them away privately, He withdrew to a town called Bethsaida.
And when the apostles returned, they showed Jeshu all that they had done. And he took them by themselves to a desert place of Bethtsaida.
11 But the crowds found out and followed Him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and He healed those who needed healing.
But the multitudes, when they knew it, went after him, and he received them, and discoursed to them concerning the kingdom of Aloha. And those who had need of healing he healed.
12 As the day neared its end, the Twelve came to Jesus and said, “Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding villages and countryside for lodging and provisions. For we are in a desolate place here.”
BUT when the day began to decline, the disciples drew near and said to him, Send away the multitudes, that they may go to the villages and hamlets that are around, to lodge in them and to find for themselves victuals, because we are in a desert place.
13 But Jesus told them, “You give them something to eat.” “We have only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered, “unless we go and buy food for all these people.”
Jeshu said to them, Give you them to eat. But they said, We have nothing more than five loaves and two fishes, unless we go and buy food for all this people:
14 (There were about five thousand men.) He told His disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
for they were about five thousand men. Jeshu said to them, Make them recline in reclining companies, fifty men in a company.
15 They did so, and everyone was seated.
And the disciples did so. And they all reclined.
16 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, Jesus spoke a blessing and broke them. Then He gave them to the disciples to set before the people.
And Jeshu took those five loaves and two fishes, and looked up to heaven and blessed and brake and gave to his disciples, that they should set before the multitude.
17 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
And all did eat and were filled. And they took up fragments which abounded, twelve baskets.
18 One day as Jesus was praying in private and the disciples were with Him, He questioned them: “Who do the crowds say I am?”
AND as he was praying alone, and his disciples with him, he asked them and said, What say concerning me the multitude, that I am?
19 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, that a prophet of old has arisen.”
They answered and say to him, Juchanon the Baptizer; and others that (thou art) Elia; but others that a prophet from the former prophets hath arisen.
20 “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
He saith to them, But what do you say that I am? Shemun answered and said, The Meshicha of Aloha!
21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone.
But he forbade them and cautioned them that this they should tell no man.
22 “The Son of Man must suffer many things,” He said. “He must be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.”
And he told them how it was to be (that) he the Son of man should suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and Sophree, and (that) they would kill him; and that on the third day he would arise.
23 Then Jesus said to all of them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me.
And he said before all, Whoever willeth to come after me, must deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and come after me.
24 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.
For whoever willeth to save his life, loseth it; but whoever (is willing) to lose his life, for my sake, he saveth it.
25 What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet lose or forfeit his very self?
For what is helped a son of man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his soul, or perish?
26 If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, the Son of man will be ashamed of him, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
27 But I tell you truthfully, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”
THE truth I say to you, that some who are standing here shall not taste death, until they have seen the kingdom of Aloha.
28 About eight days after Jesus had said these things, He took with Him Peter, John, and James, and went up on a mountain to pray.
And it was after these words about eight days, that Jeshu took Shemun and Jakub and Juchanon, and went up into a mountain to pray.
29 And as He was praying, the appearance of His face changed, and His clothes became radiantly white.
And while he prayed, the appearance of his countenance was changed, and his garments became white and shone.
30 Suddenly two men, Moses and Elijah, began talking with Jesus.
And, behold, two men talked with him, who were Musha and Elia,
31 They appeared in glory and spoke about His departure, which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.
who appeared in glory; but they spake concerning his going forth which should be accomplished at Urishlem.
32 Meanwhile Peter and his companions were overcome by sleep, but when they awoke, they saw Jesus’ glory and the two men standing with Him.
And Shemun, and they who were with him, had been heavy with sleep, and were scarcely awaked when they saw his glory and those two men who stood with him.
33 As Moses and Elijah were leaving, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters —one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what he was saying.)
And when they began to depart from him, Shemun said to Jeshu, Rabi, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; for thee one, and for Musha one, and for Elia one. But he knew not what he said.
34 While Peter was speaking, a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.
And as he spoke these (words) there was a cloud which shadowed over them, and they feared when they saw that Musha and Elia entered into the cloud. i
35 And a voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, whom I have chosen. Listen to Him!”
And the voice was from the cloud, saying, This is my Son, the Beloved, Him hear.
36 After the voice had spoken, only Jesus was present with them. The disciples kept this to themselves, and in those days they did not tell anyone what they had seen.
And when the voice had been, Jeshu was found alone. And they were silent, and told no man in those days what they had seen.
37 The next day, when they came down from the mountain, Jesus was met by a large crowd.
AND the day after when they had descended from the mountain, a great multitude met them.
38 Suddenly a man in the crowd cried out, “Teacher, I beg You to look at my son, for he is my only child.
And a certain man from the multitude cried and said, Malphona, I beseech thee, turn unto me; (there is) my son, my only one,
39 A spirit keeps seizing him, and he screams abruptly. It throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It keeps mauling him and rarely departs from him.
and a spirit passeth upon him, and he suddenly crieth, and gnasheth his teeth, and lacerateth, and hardly removeth from him when he hath bruised him.
40 I begged Your disciples to drive it out, but they were unable.”
And I besought thy disciples to cast him out, but they could not.
41 “O unbelieving and perverse generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you and put up with you? Bring your son here.”
Then Jeshu answered and said, Ah generation unbelieving and perverse! how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring thy son hither.
42 Even while the boy was approaching, the demon slammed him to the ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
And as they brought him near, the devil cast him down and bruised him: and Jeshu rebuked that unclean spirit and healed the youth and gave him to his father.
43 And they were all astonished at the greatness of God. While everyone was marveling at all that Jesus was doing, He said to His disciples,
And they all wondered at the majesty of Aloha. And while every one wondered at all which Jeshu did, he said to his disciples,
44 “Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.”
Treasure these words in your ears; for the Son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men.
45 But they did not understand this statement. It was veiled from them so that they could not comprehend it, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
But they understood not that saying, because it was hidden from them that they should not know it: and they feared to ask of him concerning that saying.
46 Then an argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest.
And there entered among them the thought, Who should be greatest among them?
47 But Jesus, knowing the thoughts of their hearts, had a little child stand beside Him.
But Jeshu knew the thought of their heart; and he took a child and made him stand with him.
48 And He said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in My name welcomes Me, and whoever welcomes Me welcomes the One who sent Me. For whoever is the least among all of you, he is the greatest.”
And he said to them, Every one who receiveth a child like this in my name, receiveth me. And whosoever receiveth me, he receiveth Him who sent me. For he who is least among you, he shall be greatest.
49 “Master,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in Your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not accompany us.”
And Juchanon answered and said, Raban, we saw a man who was casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he came not with us after thee.
50 “Do not stop him,” Jesus replied, “for whoever is not against you is for you.”
Jeshu saith to them, Forbid him not; for he who is not against us, he is for us.
51 As the day of His ascension approached, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.
AND it was that when the days were fulfilled for his Assumption, he directed his face to go to Urishlem.
52 He sent messengers on ahead, who went into a village of the Samaritans to make arrangements for Him.
And he sent messengers before his face, and they went and entered into a village of the Shomroyee, so as to prepare for him.
53 But the people there refused to welcome Him, because He was heading for Jerusalem.
And they would not receive him, because his face unto Urishlem was set to go.
54 When the disciples James and John saw this, they asked, “Lord, do You want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?”
And when Jacub and Juchanon his disciples saw it, they say to him, Maran, art thou willing that we call fire to descend from heaven to consume them, as Elia did?
55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them.
But he turned and reproved them, and said, You know not of what spirit you are: for the Son of man is not come to destroy lives, but to save.
56 And He and His disciples went on to another village.
And they went to another village.
57 As they were walking along the road, someone said to Jesus, “I will follow You wherever You go.”
And while they went in the way, a certain man said to him, I will follow thee to the place whither thou goest, my Lord.
58 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.”
Jeshu saith to him, The foxes have holes and the fowls of the heaven a shadow, but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
59 Then He said to another man, “Follow Me.” The man replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
And he said to another, Come after me. But he said to him, My Lord, permit me first to go bury my father.
60 But Jesus told him, “Let the dead bury their own dead. You, however, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”
Jeshu said to him, Leave the dead burying their dead; and thou, go and preach the kingdom of Aloha.
61 Still another said, “I will follow You, Lord; but first let me bid farewell to my family.”
And another said to him, I will come after thee, my Lord, but first permit me to go to salute the sons of my house, and I will come.
62 Then Jesus declared, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and then looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
Jeshu saith to him, No man putting his hand upon the coulter of the yoke, and looking behind him, is fit for the kingdom of Aloha.
