1 Having called together then the Twelve (disciples of him *K*) He gave to them power and authority over all the demons and diseases to heal
He called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases.
2 and He sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the (sick. *N(k)O*)
He sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.
3 and He said to them; Nothing do take for the journey; neither (staff *N(K)O*) nor bag nor bread nor money nor apiece two tunics to have.
He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey—no staff, no wallet, no bread, no money, and no extra tunic.
4 And into whatever maybe house you may enter, there do remain and from there do go forth.
Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave.
5 And as many as (maybe *NK(o)*) not (shall receive *N(k)O*) you, going forth from the city that (and *k*) the dust from the feet of you (do shake off *N(k)O*) as a testimony against them.
Wherever they do not receive you, when you leave that town, shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”
6 Going forth then they were passing through the villages evangelising and healing everywhere.
Then they departed and went through the villages, proclaiming the good news and healing everywhere.
7 Heard of now Herod the Tetrarch the [things] being done (by him *K*) all and was perplexed because of the saying by some that John (has been raised *N(k)O*) out from [the] dead,
Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,
8 by some also that Elijah had appeared, by others also that a prophet (someone *N(k)O*) of the ancients had arisen.
and others said that Elijah had appeared, and still others that one of the prophets of long ago had risen.
9 (and *k*) Said (then *no*) (*ko*) Herod; John I myself beheaded; who however is this concerning whom (I myself *ko*) I hear such things? And he was seeking to see Him.
Herod said, “I beheaded John. Who is this about whom I hear such things?” And so he tried to see him.
10 And having returned the apostles related to Him as much as they had done. And having taken them He withdrew by in private into (place solitary *K*) (a town being called *N(k)O*) Bethsaida.
When the apostles returned, they told him everything they had done. Then he took them with him, and they went away privately to a town called Bethsaida.
11 The now crowds having known [it] they followed Him. and (having received *N(k)O*) them He was speaking to them concerning the kingdom of God, and those need having of healing He was healing.
But when the crowds heard about this, they followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and he cured those who needed healing.
12 And the day began to decline. having come then the Twelve said to Him; do dismiss the crowd that (having travelled *N(k)O*) into the surrounding villages and (*ko*) countryside they may lodge and they may find provisions; for here in a desolate place we are.
Now the day was about to come to an end, and the twelve came to him and said, “Send the crowd away that they may go into the surrounding villages and countryside to find lodging and food, because we are here in an isolated place.”
13 He said now to them; do give to them you yourselves to eat. But they said; Not there are to us more than loaves five and fish two, except surely even having gone we ourselves shall buy for all people this food.
But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves of bread and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all these people.”
14 They were for about men five thousand. He said then to the disciples of Him; do make sit down them groups (of about *NO*) in fifty.
(There were about five thousand men.) He said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
15 And they did so and (he sat *N(K)O*) all.
So they did this, and made the people sit down.
16 Having taken then the five loaves and the two fish, having looked up to the heaven He blessed them and broke [them] and He was giving [them] to the disciples (to set *N(k)O*) before the crowd.
Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, he blessed them and broke them into pieces, and he gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.
17 And they ate and were satisfied all, and was taken up that having been a surplus to them of fragments hand-baskets twelve.
They all ate and were satisfied, and what was left over was picked up—twelve baskets of broken pieces.
18 And it came to pass as happening He is praying in solitary were with Him the disciples, and He questioned them saying; Whom Me do pronounce the crowds to be?
It came about while Jesus was praying by himself, the disciples were with him. He questioned them, saying, “Who do the crowds say that I am?”
19 And answering they said; John the Baptist, others also Elijah, others now that a prophet one of the ancients has arisen.
They answered, “John the Baptist. But others say Elijah, and others say that one of the prophets from long ago has risen.”
20 He said then to them; You yourselves however whom Me do pronounce to be? (*k*) Peter then answering said; The Christ of God.
Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
21 And having strictly warned to them He instructed [them] to no one (to tell *N(k)O*) this
But he strongly warned them to tell this to no one,
22 having said that It is necessary for the Son of Man many things to suffer and to be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes and to be killed and on the third day (to be raised. *NK(o)*)
saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and he will be killed and on the third day be raised.”
23 He was saying then to all; If anyone desires after Me (to come, he should deny *N(k)O*) himself and he should take up the cross of him every day and he should follow Me.
Then he said to them all, “If anyone wants to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
24 Who[ever] for (maybe *NK(o)*) shall desire the life of him to save, will lose it; who[ever] however maybe may lose the life of him on account of me, he will save it.
Whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
25 What for is profited a man having gained the world whole himself now having destroyed or having suffered the loss of?
What good is it for a person to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit himself?
26 Who[ever] for maybe may have been ashamed of Me and My words, him the Son of Man will be ashamed of when He may come in the glory of Himself and of the Father and of the holy angels.
Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed when he comes in his own glory, and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
27 I say now to you truthfully there are some of those (there *N(k)O*) already standing who certainly not (may taste *N(k)O*) of death until maybe they may have seen the kingdom of God.
But I say to you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”
28 It came to pass now after sayings these about days eight, and having taken (*k*) Peter and John and James He went up on the mountain to pray.
Now about eight days after Jesus said these words, he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray.
29 And it came to pass during praying by Him the appearance of the face of Him [was] altered, and the clothing of Him white became dazzling.
As he was praying, the form of his face was changed, and his clothes became brilliant white.
30 And behold men two were talking with Him who were Moses and Elijah;
Behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah,
31 Those having appeared in glory were speaking of the going out of Him which He was soon to accomplish in Jerusalem.
who appeared in glorious splendor. They spoke about his departure, which he was about to bring to completion in Jerusalem.
32 And Peter and those with him were wearied with sleep. having awoken fully then they saw the glory of Him and the two men who already standing with Him.
Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men who were standing with him.
33 And it came to pass in the departing of them from Him said Peter to Jesus; Master, good it is for us here to be, also let us make tabernacles three, one for You and one for Moses and one for Elijah; not knowing what he is saying.
As they were going away from Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what he was saying.)
34 These things then when he is saying came a cloud and (was overshadowing *N(k)O*) them. they feared then in the entering (of them *N(k)O*) into the cloud.
As he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
35 And a voice came out of the cloud saying; This is the Son of Mine the (chosen, *N(K)O*) to Him do listen.
A voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, the one who is chosen; listen to him.”
36 And as happening the voice was found (*k*) Jesus alone. And they themselves were silent and to no [one] they told in those the days no [thing] of what they have seen.
When the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.
37 It came to pass then (in *ko*) the next day when were descending they from the mountain met with Him a crowd great.
Now on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him.
38 And behold a man from the crowd (cried *N(k)O*) saying; Teacher, I implore You (to look *N(k)O*) upon the son of mine for an only child to me he is;
Behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.
39 And behold a spirit takes him and suddenly he cries out and it throws into convulsions him with foaming and (with difficulty *NK(o)*) it departs from him bruising him.
You see, a spirit takes control over him and he suddenly screams; it causes him to have convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It hardly ever leaves him and it bruises him badly.
40 And I begged the disciples of You that (they may cast out *N(k)O*) it, and not they were able.
I begged your disciples to force it out, but they could not.”
41 Answering now Jesus said, O generation unbelieving and perverted, until when will I be with you and I will bear with you? do bring here the son of you.
Jesus answered and said, “You unbelieving and depraved generation, how long must I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here.”
42 While then when is coming near he threw down him the demon and threw [him] into convulsions. Rebuked then Jesus the spirit unclean and healed the boy and gave back him to the father of him.
While the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and shook him with convulsions. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 Were astonished then all at the majesty of God. Of all however wondering at all which (was doing *N(k)O*) (*k*) (Jesus *K*) He said to the disciples of Him;
Then they were all amazed at the greatness of God. While they all were marveling at everything he was doing, he said to his disciples,
44 do implant in yourself you yourselves into the ears of you words these; for the Son of Man is soon to be betrayed into [the] hands of men.
“Let these words go deeply into your ears: The Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men.”
45 But they were not understanding declaration this, and it was veiled from them that not they may understand it. And they were afraid to ask Him concerning declaration this.
But they did not understand this statement. It was hidden from them, so they could not know its meaning, and yet they were afraid to ask about this statement.
46 Came up then an argument among them this who maybe would be greater of them.
Then an argument started among them about which of them would be the greatest.
47 But Jesus (knowing *N(k)O*) the reasoning of the heart of them, having taken hold of (a child *N(k)O*) set it by Himself
But Jesus, knowing the reasoning in their hearts, took a little child and put him by his side
48 and He said to them; Who[ever] (maybe *NK(o)*) shall receive this child in the name of Me, Me myself receives; and who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) Me myself shall receive, receives the [One] having sent Me. The [one] for least among all you being he (is *N(k)O*) great.
and said to them, “Whoever welcomes this child in my name, welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me, welcomes the one who sent me. For whoever is least among you all is the one who is great.”
49 Answering now (*k*) John said; Master, we saw someone (in *N(k)O*) the name of You casting out demons and (we were forbidding *N(k)O*) him because not he follows with us.
John answered, “Master, we saw someone forcing out demons in your name and we prevented him, because he does not follow along with us.”
50 (and *k*) Said (then *no*) to him Jesus; Not do forbid; who[ever] for not is against (you *N(K)O*) for (you *N(K)O*) is.
“Do not stop him,” Jesus said, “because whoever is not against you is for you.”
51 It came to pass then in the completing the days of the ascension of Him that He himself the face (of him *ko*) steadfastly set to go to Jerusalem.
When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 And He sent messengers before [the] face of Him. And having gone they entered into a village of the Samaritans (so as *N(k)O*) to make ready for Him.
He sent messengers on ahead of him, and they went and entered into a Samaritan village to prepare everything for him.
53 And not they did receive Him because the face of Him was [as] going toward Jerusalem.
But the people there did not welcome him, because he had set his face to go to Jerusalem.
54 Having seen [it] now the disciples (of him *ko*) James and John said; Lord, do you want [that] we may call fire to come down from heaven and to consume them (as and Elijah did? *K*)
When the disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and destroy them?”
55 Having turned then He rebuked them (and said not you know such as spirit are you yourselves. *K*)
But he turned and rebuked them,
56 (for the son of man not came souls of men to destroy but to save. *K*) and they went to another village.
and they went on to another village.
57 (And *no*) (it came to pass *KO*) (now *k*) when are going they along the road said someone to Him; I will follow You wherever (maybe *N(k)O*) You shall go (Lord. *K*)
As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 And said to him Jesus; The foxes holes have, and the birds of the air nests; but the Son of Man not has where the head He may lay.
Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds in the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
59 He said then to another; do follow Me. But he said; Lord do allow me having gone away first to bury the father of mine.
Then he said to another, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
60 He said then to him (*k*) (Jesus: *K*) do leave the dead to bury the their own dead. you yourself however having gone forth do declare the kingdom of God.
But he said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim far and wide the kingdom of God.”
61 Said then also another; I will follow You, Lord; first however do allow me to bid farewell to those at the home of mine.
Then someone else said, “I will follow you, Lord, but first let me say goodbye to those in my home.”
62 Said then to him Jesus: No [one] having laid the hand (of him *ko*) upon [the] plow and looking on the [things] back suitable is (for *k*) (the kingdom *N(k)O*) of God.
Jesus replied to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
