2 And he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God, and to heal.
and sent them forth, to be proclaiming the kingdom of God, and to be healing;
3 And he said to them, Take nothing for the journey, neither a staff, nor a bag, nor bread, nor money, nor have two coats apiece.
and said unto them—Nothing, take ye for the journey, —neither staff, nor satchel, nor bread, nor silver, nor to have, two tunics.
4 And into whatever house ye enter, there abide, and from it take your departure.
And, into whatsoever house ye enter, there, abide, and, thence, be going forth.
5 And whoever shall not receive you, shake off, when ye leave that city, even the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.
And, as many soever as shall not welcome you, in going forth from that city, the dust of your feet, shake ye off, for a witness against them.
6 And they departed, and went through the towns publishing the glad tidings, and performing cures everywhere.
And they went forth, and were passing through, along the villages, —delivering the glad-message, and effecting cures in every direction.
7 And Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was taking place, and was perplexed; because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead;
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things which were coming to pass, and was utterly at a loss, because of its being said, by some, that, John, had been raised from the dead;
8 and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets had risen.
and, by some, that, Elijah, had appeared; and, by others, that, some prophet of the ancients, had arisen.
9 But Herod said, John I beheaded; but who is this, about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
But Herod said—John, I myself, beheaded; but, who is this, concerning whom I am hearing such things as these? And he was seeking to see him.
10 And the apostles returned and told him what they had done; and taking them with him, he withdrew privately to a city called Bethsaida.

But, the multitudes, getting to know, followed him; and, giving them welcome, he began speaking unto them concerning the kingdom of God, —and, them that had need of cure, he healed,
12 And when the day began to decline, the twelve came and said to him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages around, and the open country, and lodge, and get food; for we are here in a desert place.
And, the day, began to decline; and the twelve, coming near, said to him—Dismiss the multitude, that, going into the surrounding villages and hamlets, they may lodge, and find provisions; because, here, in a desert place, are we.
13 But he said to them, Do ye give them food. And they said, We have not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless we ourselves should go and buy food for l all these people.
But he said unto them—Give, ye, them to eat. They, however, said—We have not more than five loaves, and two fishes, —unless perhaps, we, should go, and buy food, for all this people.
14 They were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them lie down in companies of fifty.
For there were about five thousand men. And he said unto his disciples—Make them recline, in companies of about fifty each.
15 And they did so, and made them all lie down.
And they did so, —and made, one and all, recline.
16 Then 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.
And, taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up into heaven, he blessed them, and brake [them] up, and went on giving to the disciples, to set before the multitude;

and they did all eat and were filled. And that which remained over to them, was taken up, —of broken pieces, twelve baskets.
18 And it came to pass as he was in a private place praying, that his disciples were with him; and he asked them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?
And, it came to pass, when he was praying in solitude, the disciples, were with him. And he questioned them, saying—Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 And they answering said, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets hath risen.
And they, answering, said John the Immerser; But some, Elijah, and others, that, some prophet of the ancients, hath arisen.
20 And he said to them, But who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
And he said to them—But who say, ye, that I am? And, Peter, answering, said—The Christ of God!
21 But he strictly charged them, and commanded them to tell this to no one;
He, however, sternly admonishing them, gave charge that, unto no one, should they be telling this;
22 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 rise again on the third day.
saying—The Son of Man must needs suffer, many things, and be rejected by the Elders and High priests and Scribes, and be slain, —and, on the third day, arise.

And he was saying, unto all—If any one intendeth after me to come, Let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, —and be following me.
24 For whoever chooseth to save his life, will lose it; and whoever loseth his life for my sake, he will save it.
For, whosoever intendeth, his life, to save, shall lose it; but, whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same, shall save it?
25 For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose or forfeit himself?
For what doth a man profit, who hath gained the whole world, but hath lost, or been made to forfeit, himself?
26 For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed, when be cometh in his glory, and that of his Father, and of the holy angels.
For, whosoever shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, of him, the Son of Man, will be ashamed, whensoever he shall come in his glory, and that of the Father, and of the holy messengers.
27 And I tell you in truth, that there are some of those standing here who will not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God.
But I tell you of a truth—There, are, some of those, here, standing, who shall in nowise taste of death, until they see the kingdom of God.
28 And it came to pass about eight days after this discourse, that he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray.
And it came to pass, after these words, about eight days, taking with him Peter and John and James, he went up into the mountain to pray.
29 And while he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was changed, and his raiment became white and glistening.
And it came to pass, while he was praying, that, the appearance of his face, was changed, and, his clothing, became white, effulgent.
30 And lo! two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah;
And lo! two men, were conversing with him, who, indeed, were Moses and Elijah, —
31 who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure which he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem.
who, appearing in glory, were speaking as to his departure, which he was about to fulfil in Jerusalem.
32 But Peter and those who were with him were weighed down with sleep. But when they awoke, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.
Now, Peter, and they who were with him, had become heavy with sleep; but, waking up, they saw his glory, and the two men who were standing with him.
33 And it came to pass as they were parting from him, that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah; —not knowing what he said.
And it came to pass, when they were being parted from him, Peter said unto Jesus—Master! it is, delightful, for us to be, here: Let us, therefore, make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: —not knowing what he said.
34 But as he was saying this, there came a cloud and overshadowed them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.
Now, while he was saying these things, there came a cloud, and it began to overshadow them, —and they were overcome with fear as they entered into the cloud.
35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, “This is my chosen Son; hear him.”
And, a voice, came out of the cloud, saying—This, is my Son, the Chosen One: Unto him, be hearkening.
36 And when the voice had come, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it secret, and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.
And, when the voice came, there was found, Jesus alone. And they held their peace, and, unto no one, reported they, in those days, any of the things which they had seen.
37 And it came to pass that on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.
And it came to pass, on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, that there met him a great multitude.
38 And lo! a man from the multitude cried out, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee, look upon my son, for he is my only child;
And lo! a man from the multitude, uttered a cry, saying—Teacher! I beg of thee, to look upon my son, because, my only begotten, he is.
39 and lo! a spirit seizeth him, and suddenly crieth out, and convulseth him so that he foameth, and it departeth from him hardly, taking away all his strength.
And lo! a spirit, taketh him, and, suddenly, he crieth out, —and it convulseth him—with foaming, and with difficulty departeth from him, sorely bruising him.
40 And I besought thy disciples to cast it out, and they could not.
And I begged of thy disciples, that they would cast it out, and they could not.
41 And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? Bring thy son hither.
And, making answer, Jesus said—O faithless and perverted generation! how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? Bring, hither, thy son.
42 And while he was yet coming, the demon threw him down, and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him to his father.
And, while yet he was coming, the demon tare him, and mangled him. But Jesus rebuked the impure spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they were all wondering at all the things which he did, he said to his disciples,
And they were all being struck with astonishment, at the majesty of God. And, while all were marvelling at all things which he was doing, he said unto his disciples:
44 As for you, let these words sink into your ears; for the Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men.
Lay, ye, up in your ears, these words; for, the Son of Man, is about to be delivered up, into the hands of men.
45 But they knew not the meaning of these words, and it was hidden from them, that they might not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask him about these words.
But, they, understood not this saying, and it had become veiled from them, that they might not grasp it, —and they were afraid to question him, concerning this saying.
46 And there arose a reasoning among them, which of them was greatest.
But there entered a reasoning among them, as to who of them should be greatest.
47 And Jesus knowing the reasoning of their heart, took a child and set him by his side,
And, Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their heart, taking a child, placed it near himself, —
48 and said to them, Whoever receiveth this child in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth him who sent me. For he that is least among you all, he is great.
and said unto them—Whosoever shall give welcome unto this child, on my name, unto me, giveth welcome; and, whosoever, unto me, giveth welcome, giveth welcome unto him that sent me forth. For, he who is least among you all, the same, is, great.
49 And John answering said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow in our company.
But John, answering, said—Master! we saw some one, in thy name, casting out demons, —and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.
50 But Jesus said to him, Forbid him not; for he that is not against you is for you.
And Jesus said unto him—Do not forbid; for, whosoever is not against you, is, for you.
51 And it came to pass, when the time was near for his being received up, that he himself steadily set his face to go to Jerusalem.
And it came to pass, when the days for taking him up were on the point of being fulfilled, even he himself, set, his face, to be journeying unto Jerusalem;
52 And he sent messengers before him; and they went and entered a city of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
and he sent messengers before his face, —and, taking their journey, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.
53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as if he were going to Jerusalem.
And they welcomed him not, because, his face, was for journeying unto Jerusalem.
54 And the disciples James and John, on seeing it, said, Lord, wilt thou have us bid fire come down from heaven, and consume them?
And the disciples James and John, seeing it, said—Lord! wilt thou, that we bid fire come down from heaven, and destroy them?
55 But he turned and rebuked them.
But, turning, he rebuked them.
56 And they went to another village.
And they journeyed into a different village.
57 And as they were traveling on the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wherever thou goest.
And, as they were journeying on the road, one said unto him—I will follow thee, whithersoever thou shalt depart.
58 And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have lodging-places; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
And Jesus said unto him—the foxes, have, dens, and, the birds of heaven, nests; but, the Son of Man, hath not where, his head, he may recline.
59 And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Suffer me first to go and bury my father.
And he said unto another—Be following me! But, he, said—Suffer me, first, to depart, and bury my father.
60 And he said to him, Let the dead bury their own dead; but go thou and carry the tidings of the kingdom of God.
And he said unto him—Leave, the dead, to bury their own dead; but, thou, departing, be declaring the kingdom of God.
61 And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord; but first let me bid farewell to those who are in my house.
And, yet another, said—I will follow thee, Lord; But, first, suffer me to bid adieu to them that are in my house.
62 And Jesus said to him, No one who looketh back after putting his hand to the plough is fit for the kingdom of God.
But Jesus said [unto him] —No one, laying the hand on a plough and looking unto the things behind, is, fit, for the kingdom of God.
