Matthew 17
1 After six days, Yeshua took with him Kipha, Yaquv, and Yukhanan his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.
Καὶ μεθʼ ἡμέρας ἓξ, παραλαμβάνει ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς τὸν Πέτρον, καὶ Ἰάκωβον, καὶ Ἰωάννην, τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀναφέρει αὐτοὺς εἰς ὄρος ὑψηλὸν κατʼ ἰδίαν.
2 He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
Καὶ μετεμορφώθη ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔλαμψεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁ ἥλιος, τὰ δὲ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο λευκὰ ὡς τὸ φῶς.
3 And look, Mushe and Eliya appeared to them talking with him.
Καὶ ἰδοὺ, ὤφθη αὐτοῖς Μωϋσῆς καὶ Ἠλίας συλλαλοῦντες μετʼ αὐτοῦ.
4 Kipha answered, and said to Yeshua, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let us make three tents here: one for you, one for Mushe, and one for Eliya."
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ, ὁ Πέτρος εἶπεν τῷ ˚Ἰησοῦ, “˚Κύριε, καλόν ἐστιν ἡμᾶς ὧδε εἶναι. Εἰ θέλεις, ποιήσω ὧδε τρεῖς σκηνάς, σοὶ μίαν, καὶ Μωϋσεῖ μίαν, καὶ Ἠλίᾳ μίαν.”
5 While he was still speaking, look, a bright cloud overshadowed them. And look, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him."
Ἔτι αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος, ἰδοὺ, νεφέλη φωτεινὴ ἐπεσκίασεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἰδοὺ, φωνὴ ἐκ τῆς νεφέλης λέγουσα, “Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ Υἱός μου, ὁ ἀγαπητός ἐν ᾧ εὐδόκησα· ἀκούετε αὐτοῦ!”
6 When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.
Καὶ ἀκούσαντες, οἱ μαθηταὶ ἔπεσαν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν σφόδρα.
7 Yeshua came and touched them and said, "Get up, and do not be afraid."
Καὶ προσῆλθεν ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς καὶ ἁψάμενος αὐτῶν εἶπεν, “Ἐγέρθητε καὶ μὴ φοβεῖσθε.”
8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one except Yeshua alone.
Ἐπάραντες δὲ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν, οὐδένα εἶδον εἰ μὴ αὐτὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν μόνον.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, Yeshua commanded them, saying, "Do not tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead."
Καὶ καταβαινόντων αὐτῶν ἐκ τοῦ ὄρους, ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς λέγων, “Μηδενὶ εἴπητε τὸ ὅραμα, ἕως οὗ ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ.”
10 The disciples asked him, saying, "Then why do the scribes say that Eliya must come first?"
Καὶ ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ λέγοντες, “Τί οὖν οἱ γραμματεῖς λέγουσιν ὅτι Ἠλίαν δεῖ ἐλθεῖν πρῶτον;”
11 And he answered and said, "Eliya indeed comes, and will restore all things,
Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, “Ἠλίας μὲν ἔρχεται καὶ ἀποκαταστήσει πάντα·
12 but I tell you that Eliya has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them."
λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν ὅτι Ἠλίας ἤδη ἦλθεν καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν αὐτὸν, ἀλλὰ ἐποίησαν ἐν αὐτῷ ὅσα ἠθέλησαν. Οὕτως καὶ ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου μέλλει πάσχειν ὑπʼ αὐτῶν.”
13 Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of Yukhanan the Baptist.
Τότε συνῆκαν οἱ μαθηταὶ ὅτι περὶ Ἰωάννου τοῦ Βαπτιστοῦ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς.
14 When they came to the crowd, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, saying,
Καὶ ἐλθόντων πρὸς τὸν ὄχλον, προσῆλθεν αὐτῷ ἄνθρωπος γονυπετῶν αὐτὸν
15 "Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic, and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
καὶ λέγων, “˚Κύριε, ἐλέησόν μου τὸν υἱόν, ὅτι σεληνιάζεται καὶ κακῶς ἔχει, πολλάκις γὰρ πίπτει εἰς τὸ πῦρ, καὶ πολλάκις εἰς τὸ ὕδωρ.
16 So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him."
Καὶ προσήνεγκα αὐτὸν τοῖς μαθηταῖς σου, καὶ οὐκ ἠδυνήθησαν αὐτὸν θεραπεῦσαι.”
17 Yeshua answered, "Faithless and perverse generation. How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me."
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν, “Ὦ γενεὰ ἄπιστος καὶ διεστραμμένη, ἕως πότε μεθʼ ὑμῶν ἔσομαι; Ἕως πότε ἀνέξομαι ὑμῶν; Φέρετέ μοι αὐτὸν ὧδε.”
18 Yeshua rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
Καὶ ἐπετίμησεν αὐτῷ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ τὸ δαιμόνιον, καὶ ἐθεραπεύθη ὁ παῖς ἀπὸ τῆς ὥρας ἐκείνης.
19 Then the disciples came to Yeshua privately, and said, "Why weren't we able to cast it out?"
Τότε προσελθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ τῷ ˚Ἰησοῦ κατʼ ἰδίαν εἶπον, “Διὰ τί ἡμεῖς οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐκβαλεῖν αὐτό;”
20 So he said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you."
Ὁ δὲ λέγει αὐτοῖς, “Διὰ τὴν ὀλιγοπιστίαν ὑμῶν. Ἀμὴν, γὰρ λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐὰν ἔχητε πίστιν ὡς κόκκον σινάπεως, ἐρεῖτε τῷ ὄρει τούτῳ, ‘Μετάβα ἔνθεν ἐκεῖ’, καὶ μεταβήσεται, καὶ οὐδὲν ἀδυνατήσει ὑμῖν.”
22 While they were gathering together in Galila, Yeshua said to them, "The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
Συστρεφομένων δὲ αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ Γαλιλαίᾳ, εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, “Μέλλει ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου παραδίδοσθαι εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπων,
23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up." They were exceedingly sorry.
καὶ ἀποκτενοῦσιν αὐτόν, καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ἐγερθήσεται.” Καὶ ἐλυπήθησαν σφόδρα.
24 When they had come to Kepharnakhum, those who collected the zuzeen coins came to Kipha, and said, "Does not your teacher pay the zuzeen?"
Ἐλθόντων δὲ αὐτῶν εἰς Καφαρναοὺμ, προσῆλθον οἱ τὰ δίδραχμα λαμβάνοντες τῷ Πέτρῳ καὶ εἶπον, “Ὁ διδάσκαλος ὑμῶν οὐ τελεῖ τὰ δίδραχμα;”
25 He said, "Yes." When he came into the house, Yeshua anticipated him, saying, "What do you think, Shimon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?"
Λέγει, “Ναί.” Καὶ ἐλθόντα εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν, προέφθασεν αὐτὸν ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς λέγων, “Τί σοι δοκεῖ, Σίμων; Οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς, ἀπὸ τίνων λαμβάνουσιν τέλη ἢ κῆνσον; Ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτῶν ἢ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀλλοτρίων;”
26 And when he said, "From strangers." Yeshua said to him, "Therefore the children are exempt.
λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος “Ἀπὸ τῶν ἀλλοτρίων.” Εἰπόντος δέ, “Ἀπὸ τῶν ἀλλοτρίων”, ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, “Ἄρα γε ἐλεύθεροί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοί.
27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the lake, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you."
Ἵνα δὲ μὴ σκανδαλίσωμεν αὐτούς, πορευθεὶς εἰς θάλασσαν, βάλε ἄγκιστρον καὶ τὸν ἀναβάντα πρῶτον ἰχθὺν ἆρον, καὶ ἀνοίξας τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ, εὑρήσεις στατῆρα· ἐκεῖνον λαβὼν, δὸς αὐτοῖς ἀντὶ ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ.”
