Mark 9
1 And He said to them, “Truly I say to you that there are certain of those standing here, who may not taste of death until they see the Kingdom of God having come in power.”
And He said unto them, Verily I tell you, that there are some of those who stand here, that shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.
2 And after six days Jesus takes Peter, and James, and John, and brings them up to a high mountain by themselves, alone, and He was transfigured before them,
And after six days Jesus taketh with Him Peter, and James, and John, and bringeth them up by themselves to a high mountain apart; and was transfigured before them:
3 and His garments became glittering, exceedingly white, as snow, so as a launderer on the earth is not able to whiten [them].
and his raiment shone, being exceeding white as snow, so as no fuller on earth can whiten.
4 And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
5 And Peter answering says to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three shelters, for You one, and for Moses one, and for Elijah one”:
Then said Peter to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: let us make three tabernacles; one for Thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias:
6 for he was not knowing what he might say, for they were greatly afraid.
for he knew not what to say, for they were sore afraid.
7 And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, the Beloved, hear Him”;
And there was a cloud overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, hear ye Him.
8 and suddenly, having looked around, they saw no one anymore, but Jesus only with themselves.
And immediately looking round about, they saw no more of any one, but Jesus alone with them.
9 And as they are coming down from the mountain, He charged them that they may declare to no one the things that they saw, except when the Son of Man may rise out of the dead;
And as they came down from the mountain, He charged them to tell no one what they had seen, till after the Son of man were risen from the dead.
10 and the thing they kept to themselves, questioning together what the rising out of the dead is.
And they laid hold on that expression, querying among themselves, what means the rising from the dead?
11 And they were questioning Him, saying that the scribes say that Elijah must come first.
Then they asked Him, saying, Why do the scribes say, that Elias must come first?
12 And He answering said to them, “Elijah indeed, having come first, restores all things; and how has it been written concerning the Son of Man, that He may suffer many things, and be set at nothing?
And He answered and told them, Elias doth indeed come first, and settle all things: He told them likewise how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things and be used contemptuously.
13 But I say to you that also Elijah has come, and they did to him what they willed, as it has been written of him.”
But I tell you, that Elias is come, and they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him.
14 And having come to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning with them,
And when He came to the other disciples, He saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes disputing with them.
15 and immediately, all the multitude having seen Him, were amazed, and running near, were greeting Him.
And immediately all the people, when they saw Him, were astonished; and running to Him, saluted Him.
16 And He questioned the scribes, “What do you dispute with them?”
And he asked the scribes, What are ye disputing about?
17 And one out of the multitude answering said, “Teacher, I brought my son to You, having a mute spirit;
And one of the multitude answered, and said, Master I have brought unto thee my son, who is possessed by a dumb spirit:
18 and wherever it seizes him, it tears him, and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and pines away; and I spoke to Your disciples that they may cast it out, and they were not able.”
and wherever it seizeth him, it convulseth him; and he fometh, and gnasheth his teeth, and thus he pineth away: and I desired thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.
19 And He answering him, said, “O generation unbelieving, until when will I be with you? Until when will I suffer you? Bring him to Me”;
And He answered and said, 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 to Him, and he having seen Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he, having fallen on the earth, was wallowing—foaming.
And they brought him to Him: and as soon as he saw Him, immediately the spirit threw him into convulsions: and he fell upon the ground, and rolled about foming.
21 And He questioned his father, “How much time is it since this came to him?” And he said, “From childhood,
And He asked his father, How long is it since this befel him? And he said, From a child.
22 and many times it also cast him into fire, and into water, that it might destroy him; but if You are able to do anything, help us, having compassion on us.”
And it has often thrown him both into the fire and into the waters to destroy him. But if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us and help us.
23 And Jesus said to him, “If you are able to believe! All things are possible to the one that is believing”;
And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
24 and immediately the father of the child, having cried out with tears, said, “I believe, Lord; be helping my unbelief.”
And the father of the child immediately cried out and said with tears, Lord, I believe, help thou my unbelief.
25 Jesus having seen that a multitude runs together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “Spirit—mute and deaf—I charge you, come forth out of him, and you may no longer enter into him”;
when Jesus saw the people flock together, He rebuked the impure spirit, and said to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, Come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 and having cried, and convulsed him much, it came forth, and he became as dead, so that many said that he was dead,
And when he had rored and vehemently convulsed him, he came out of him: and the child was as one dead, so that many said, that he was dead.
27 but Jesus, having taken him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose.
But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.
28 And He having come into the house, His disciples were questioning Him by Himself, “Why were we not able to cast it forth?”
And when He was come into the house, his disciples asked Him in private, Why could not we cast him out?
29 And He said to them, “This kind is able to come forth with nothing except with prayer and fasting.”
And He said unto them, This kind cannot be cast out, but by prayer and fasting.
30 And having gone forth there, they were passing through Galilee, and He did not wish that any may know,
And they departed from thence and passed through Galilee, and He was not willing that any should know it;
31 for He was teaching His disciples, and He said to them, “The Son of Man is being delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill Him, and having been killed, the third day He will rise,”
for He was instructing his disciples, and told them, the Son of man is going to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will put Him to death; and on the third day, after his being put to death, He will rise again.
32 but they were not understanding the saying, and they were afraid to question Him.
But they knew not his meaning, and were afraid to ask Him.
33 And He came to Capernaum, and being in the house, He was questioning them, “What were you reasoning in the way among yourselves?”
And he came to Capernaum; and when He was in the house, He asked them, What were ye disputing about among yourselves by the way?
34 And they were silent, for they reasoned with one another in the way who is greater;
But they held their peace; for they had been disputing with each other by the way who should be the greatest.
35 and having sat down He called the Twelve, and He says to them, “If any wills to be first, he will be last of all, and minister of all.”
So He sat down and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any one would be first, let him be last of all, and servant of all.
36 And having taken a child, He set him in the midst of them, and having taken him in His arms, said to them,
And He took a child and set him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms He 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.”
Whoever shall receive one of these little children in my name, receiveth me; and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth not me only, but Him that sent me.
38 And John answered Him, saying, “Teacher, we saw a certain one casting out demons in Your Name, who does not follow us, and we forbade him, because he does not follow us.”
But John answered Him and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, who doth not follow us; and we forbade him, because he followeth not us.
39 And Jesus said, “Do not forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in My Name, and will be readily able to speak evil of Me:
But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no one, that worketh a miracle in my name, and can presently speak evil of me:
40 for he who is not against us is for us;
for he that is not against us, is for us.
41 for whoever may give you to drink a cup of water in My Name, because you are Christ’s, truly I say to you, he may not lose his reward;
For whosoever shall give you but a cup of water to drink, for my sake; because ye are Christ's, I assure you, he shall not lose his reward.
42 and whoever may cause to stumble one of the little ones believing in Me, better is it for him if a millstone is hanged around his neck, and he has been cast into the sea.
And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones, that believe in me, to offend, it were better for him, if a milstone were laid upon his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
43 And if your hand may cause you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having the two hands, to go away into Gehenna, into the fire—the unquenchable— (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands, to go into hell, into the fire that will never be extinguished; (Geenna g1067)
44 [[where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.]]
where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45 And if your foot may cause you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life lame, than having the two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire—the unquenchable— (Geenna g1067)
And if thy foot cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the inextinguishable fire; (Geenna g1067)
46 [[where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.]]
where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47 And if your eye may cause you to stumble, cast it out; it is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God one-eyed, than having two eyes, to be cast into the Gehenna of fire— (Geenna g1067)
And if thine eye cause thee to offend, cast 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-fire; (Geenna g1067)
48 where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched;
where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
49 for everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.
For every one shall be as it were salted by fire, and every sacrifice shall be seasoned as with salt.
50 The salt [is] good, but if the salt may become saltless, in what will you season [it]? Have in yourselves salt, and have peace in one another.”
Salt is useful, but if the salt become insipid, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt therefore in yourselves, and as a proof of it be at peace one with another.
