3 And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; nor to have two body-coats apiece.
And He said to them, “Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor leather pouch, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats each;
4 And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide and thence go forth.
and into whatever house you may enter, remain there, and depart from there;
5 And as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a witness against them.
and as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, even the dust from your feet shake off, for a testimony against them.”
6 And going forth they passed through the villages, announcing the glad tidings and healing everywhere.

and the multitudes having known followed Him, and having received them, He was speaking to them concerning the Kingdom of God, and He cured those having need of service.
12 But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and [into] the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place.
And the day began to decline, and the Twelve having come near, said to Him, “Let away the multitude, that having gone into the surrounding villages and the fields, they may lodge and may find provision, because here we are in a desolate place.”
13 And he said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless we should go and buy food for all this people;
And He said to them, “You give them to eat”; and they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fishes: except, having gone, we may buy food for all this people”;
14 for they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in companies by fifties.
for they were about five thousand men. And He said to His disciples, “Cause them to recline in companies, in each fifty”;
15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

18 And it came to pass as he was praying alone, his disciples were with him, and he asked them saying, Who do the crowds say that I am?
And it came to pass, as He is praying alone, the disciples were with Him, and He questioned them, saying, “Who do the multitudes say I am?”
19 But they answering said, John the baptist; but others, Elias; and others, that one of the old prophets has risen again.
And they answering said, “John the Immerser; and others, Elijah; and others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen”;
20 And he said to them, But ye, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
and He said to them, “And you—who do you say I am?” And Peter answering said, “The Christ of God.”
21 But, earnestly charging them, he enjoined [them] to say this to no man,
And having charged them, He commanded [them] to say this to no one,
22 saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
saying, “It is necessary for the Son of Man to suffer many things, and to be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and to be raised the third day.”

And He said to all, “If anyone wills to come after Me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me;
24 for whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, he shall save it.
for whoever may will to save his life will lose it, and whoever may lose his life for My sake, he will save it;
25 For what shall a man profit if he shall have gained the whole world, and have destroyed, or come under the penalty of the loss of himself?
for what is a man profited, having gained the whole world, and having lost or having forfeited himself?
26 For whosoever shall have been ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he shall come in his glory, and [in that] of the Father, and of the holy angels.
For whoever may be ashamed of Me and of My words, of this one will the Son of Man be ashamed when He may come in His glory, and the Father’s, and the holy messengers’;
27 But I say unto you of a truth, There are some of those standing here who shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God.
and I say to you, truly, there are certain of those standing here who will not taste of death until they may see the Kingdom of God.”
28 And it came to pass after these words, about eight days, that taking Peter and John and James he went up into a mountain to pray.

and it came to pass, in His praying, the appearance of His face became altered, and His clothing became flashing white.
30 And lo, two men talked with him, who were Moses and Elias,
And behold, two men were speaking together with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,
31 who, appearing in glory, spoke of his departure which he was about to accomplish in Jerusalem.
who having appeared in glory, spoke of His outgoing that He was about to fulfill in Jerusalem,

but Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep, and having awoken, they saw His glory, and the two men standing with Him.
33 And it came to pass as they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, 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 Elias: not knowing what he said.
And it came to pass, in their parting from Him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three shelters: one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,” not knowing what he says:
34 But as he was saying these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed them, and they feared as they entered into the cloud:
and as he was speaking these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them, and they feared in their entering into the cloud,
35 and there was a voice out of the cloud saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, the Beloved; hear Him”;
36 And as the voice was [heard] Jesus was found alone: and they kept silence, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.
and when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone; and they were silent, and declared to no one in those days anything of what they have seen.

And it came to pass on the next day, they having come down from the mountain, a great multitude met Him there,
38 And lo, a man from the crowd cried out saying, Teacher, I beseech thee look upon my son, for he is mine only child:
and behold, a man from the multitude cried out, saying, “Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, because he is my only begotten;
39 and behold, a spirit takes him, and suddenly he cries out, and it tears him with foaming, and with difficulty departs from him after crushing him.
and behold, a spirit takes him, and suddenly he cries out, and it convulses him, with foaming, and it hardly departs from him, bruising him,
40 And I besought thy disciples that they might cast him out, and they could not.
and I implored Your disciples that they might cast it out, and they were not able.”
41 And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you and suffer you? Bring hither thy son.
And Jesus answering said, “O generation, unsteadfast and perverse, until when will I be with you, and endure you? Bring your son near here”;
42 But as he was yet coming, the demon tore him and dragged him all together. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child and gave him back to his father.
and as he is yet coming near, the demon threw him down, and convulsed [him], and Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the youth, and gave him back to his father.
43 And all were astonished at the glorious greatness of God. And as all wondered at all the things which [Jesus] did, he said to his disciples,
And they were all amazed at the greatness of God, and while all are wondering at all things that Jesus did, He said to His disciples,
44 Do ye let these words sink into your ears. For the Son of man is about to be delivered into men's hands.
“Lay to your ears these words, for the Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men.”
45 But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them that they should not perceive it. And they feared to ask him concerning this saying.
And they were not knowing this saying, and it was veiled from them, that they might not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.
46 And a reasoning came in amongst them, who should be [the] greatest of them.
And there entered a reasoning among them, this—who may be greater of them.
47 And Jesus, seeing the reasoning of their heart, having taken a little child set it by him,
And Jesus having seen the reasoning of their heart, having taken hold of a child, set him beside Him,
48 and said to them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receives me, and whosoever shall receive me receives him that sent me. For he who is the least among you all, he is great.
and 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 is least among you all—he will be great.”
49 And John answering said, Master, we saw some one casting out demons in thy name, and we forbad him, because he follows not with us.
And John answering said, “Master, we saw a certain one casting forth the demons in Your Name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us”;
50 And Jesus said to him, Forbid [him] not, for he that is not against you is for you.
and 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 of his receiving up were fulfilled, that he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.

54 And his disciples James and John seeing [it] said, Lord, wilt thou that we speak [that] fire come down from heaven and consume them, as also Elias did?
And His disciples James and John having seen, said, “Lord, will You [that] we may command fire to come down from Heaven, and to consume them, as Elijah also did?”
55 But turning he rebuked them [and said, Ye know not of what spirit ye are].
And having turned, He rebuked them and said, “You have not known of what spirit you are,
56 And they went to another village.
for the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save”; and they went on to another village.
57 And it came to pass as they went in the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wheresoever thou goest, Lord.
And it came to pass, as they are going on in the way, a certain one said to Him, “I will follow You wherever You may go, Lord”;
58 And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes and the birds of the heaven roosting-places, but the Son of man has not where he may lay his head.
and Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky places of rest, but the Son of Man has nowhere He may recline the head.”
59 And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me to go first and bury my father.
And He said to another, “Follow Me”; and he said, “Lord, permit me, having gone away, to first bury my father”;
60 But Jesus said to him, Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, but do thou go and announce the kingdom of God.
and Jesus said to him, “Permit the dead to bury their own dead, and you, having gone away, publish the Kingdom of God.”
61 And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid adieu to those at my house.
And another also said, “I will follow You, Lord, but first permit me to take leave of those in my house”;
62 But Jesus said to him, No one having laid his hand on [the] plough and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God.
and Jesus said to him, “No one having put his hand on a plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God.”
