Luke 9
1 He called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases.
And he called his twelve disciples to him, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases:
2 He sent them forth to proclaim the Kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
and he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
3 And he said to them, "Take nothing for your journey—neither staff, nor pack, nor bread, nor money; neither have two tunics.
And he said to them: Take nothing for your journey, neither staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money; nor have two coats each.
4 Into whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.
And whatever house you enter, there remain, and thence depart.
5 As many as do not receive you, when you depart from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them."
And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off even the dust from your feet, for a testimony against them.
6 They departed, and went throughout the villages, preaching the Good News, and healing everywhere.
And they departed, and went through every village, preaching the gospel, and performing cures everywhere.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done; and he was very perplexed, because it was said by some that Yukhanan had risen from the dead,
And Herod the tetrarch heard of all things that were done by him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some, that John had risen from the dead;
8 and by some that Eliya had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.
and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that a prophet of ancient times had risen again.
9 Herod said, "Yukhanan I beheaded, but who is this, about whom I hear such things?" He sought to see him.
And Herod said: John I have beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.
10 The apostles, when they had returned, told him what things they had done. He took them, and withdrew apart to a city called Beth-Sayada.
And the apostles returned, and told him all that they had done. And he took them, and withdrew privately to a desert place, that belonged to a city called Bethsaida.
11 But the crowds, perceiving it, followed him. He welcomed them, and spoke to them of the Kingdom of God, and he cured those who needed healing.
But the multitudes knew it, and followed him; and he received them, and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.
12 The day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said to him, "Send the crowd away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms, and lodge, and get food, for we are here in a deserted place."
And the day began to decline; and the twelve came and said to him: Send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and the country round about, and lodge, and find food; for we are here in a desert place.
13 But he said to them, "You give them something to eat." They said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we should go and buy food for all these people."
But he said to them: Do you give them food. They replied: We have nothing but five loaves and two fishes, unless we go and buy food for all these people.
14 For they were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, "Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each."
For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples: Make them recline in companies of fifty.
15 They did so, and made them all sit down.
And they did so, and made them all recline.
16 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them, and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.
And he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke, and gave them to the disciples, to set before the multitude.
17 They ate, and were all filled. They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
And they all ate, and were satisfied; and there was taken up what remained to them of the broken pieces, twelve baskets.
18 It happened, as he was praying alone, that the disciples were with him, and he asked them, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"
And it came to pass, as he was praying in a retired place, that his disciples were with him; and he asked them, saying: Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 They answered, "'Yukhanan the Baptist,' but others say, 'Eliya,' and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again."
They answered and said: John the Immerser; but some, Elijah; and others, that some prophet of ancient times has risen again.
20 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Kipha answered, "The Meshikha of God."
He said to them: But who do you say that I am? Peter answered and said: The Christ of God.
21 But he warned them, and commanded them to tell this to no one,
And he strictly charged them and commanded them to tell this to no one,
22 saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up."
saying: The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be put to death, and be raised the third day.
23 He said to all, "If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me.
And he said to them all: If any one determines to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
24 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same will save it.
For whoever will save his life, shall lose it; but whoever will lose his life for my sake, shall save it.
25 For what does it profit a person if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?
For what will it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and destroy himself, or be lost?
26 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.
For whoever will be ashamed of me and my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed, when he comes in his own glory; and that of the Father, and of the holy angels.
27 But I tell you the truth: There are some of those who stand here, who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Kingdom of God."
But I say to you, of a truth, there are some of these who stand here that shall not taste of death till they see the kingdom of God.
28 It happened about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Kipha, Yukhanan, and Yaquv, and went up onto the mountain to pray.
And it came to pass, about eight days after these words, that he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.
29 As he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became white and dazzling.
And as he prayed, the appearance of his face was changed, and his raiment became white and glittering.
30 And look, two men were talking with him, who were Mushe and Eliya,
And, behold, two men conversed with him, who were Moses and Elijah;
31 who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Urishlim.
they appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish in Jerusalem.
32 Now Kipha and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.
And Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep; but having fully awakened, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.
33 It happened, as they were parting from him, that Kipha said to Yeshua, "Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tents: one for you, and one for Mushe, and one for Eliya," not knowing what he said.
And it came to pass, that, as they were withdrawing from him, Peter said to Jesus: Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for thee, one for Moses, and one for. Elijah, not knowing what he said.
34 While he said these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
While he was saying these things, there came a cloud, and it overshadowed them; and they were afraid as those men entered the cloud.
35 A voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, my Chosen One. Listen to him."
And there came a voice from the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son; hear him.
36 When the voice came, Yeshua was found alone. They were silent, and told no one in those days any of the things which they had seen.
And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it secret, and told no one, in those days, any of the things which they had seen.
37 It happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a large crowd met him.
And it came to pass, that, on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.
38 And look, a man from the crowd called out, saying, "Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.
And, behold, a man from the multitude cried out, saying: Teacher, I beseech thee, look upon my son, for he is my only child;
39 And look, a spirit seizes him, and all at once he cries out, and it convulses him so that he foams, and it hardly departs from him, bruising him severely.
and, behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out, and it throws him into convulsions, and causes him to foam, and after depriving him of strength, hardly departs from him.
40 I begged your disciples to cast it out, and they could not."
And I entreated thy disciples to cast it out; but they were not able.
41 Yeshua answered, "Faithless and perverse generation, how long must I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here."
And Jesus answering, said: O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you! Bring your son hither.
42 While he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him violently. But Yeshua rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
And while he was coming, the demon cast him to the ground, and threw him into convulsions; but Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and restored the child to health, and gave him back to his father.
43 They were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all the things which Yeshua did, he said to his disciples,
And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. And while they were all wondering at every thing that Jesus did, he said to his disciples:
44 "Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men."
Let these words sink into your ears; for the Son of man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.
45 But they did not understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, that they might not understand it; and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
46 There arose an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.
And there arose a contention among them, which of them should be greatest.
47 Yeshua, knowing the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,
But Jesus perceived the thought of their heart, and he took a little child, and made it stand by him,
48 and said to them, "Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least among you all, this one is great."
and said to them: Whoever will receive this little child on my account, receives me; and whoever will receive me, receives him that sent me. For he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.
49 Yukhanan answered, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us."
And John answered and said: Master, we saw a certain one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.
50 Yeshua said to him, "Do not forbid him, for he who is not against you is for you."
And Jesus said to him: Forbid him not; for whoever is not against us, is for us.
51 It came to pass, when the days were near that he should be taken up, he intently set his face to go to Urishlim,
And it came to pass, as the time for him to be taken up into heaven had fully come, that he set his face steadfastly to go up to Jerusalem.
52 and sent messengers before his face. They went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.
And he sent messengers before his face; and they went, and entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.
53 But they did not receive him, because he was traveling with his face set towards Urishlim.
And they did not receive him, because his face was turned toward Jerusalem.
54 When his disciples, Yaquv and Yukhanan, saw this, they said, "Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky, and consume them?"
And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said: Lord, is it thy will that we command fire to come down from heaven and destroy them, even as Elijah did?
55 And he turned and rebuked them, and said, "You do not realize what kind of Rukha you belong to.
But he turned and rebuked them, and said: You know not of what spirit you are.
56 For the Son of Man did not come to destroy people's lives, but to save them." And they went to another village.
And they went to another village.
57 As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, "I want to follow you wherever you go."
And it came to pass, as they were going on their journey, that a certain man said to him: Lord, I will follow thee wherever thou shalt go.
58 And Yeshua said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head."
And Jesus said to him: The foxes have dens, and the birds of the air have roosts, but the Son of man has not where to lay his head.
59 He said to another, "Follow me." But he said, "Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father."
And he said to another: Follow me. But he replied: Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.
60 But Yeshua said to him, "Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce the Kingdom of God."
Jesus said: Let the dead bury their own dead; but do you go and publish abroad the kingdom of God.
61 Another also said, "I want to follow you, Lord, but first allow me to bid farewell to those who are at my house."
And another said: I will follow thee, Lord; but first permit me to take leave of those at home.
62 But Yeshua said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God."
Jesus said to him: No one that puts his hand to the plow, and looks back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
