< Matthew 17 >

1 And after days six takes with [Him] Jesus Peter and James and John the brother of him and brings up them into a mountain high on [their] own.
And after six days, Jesus taketh Peter, and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up to a high mountain apart;
2 And He was transfigured before them, and shone the face of Him like the sun, and the clothes of Him (he became *NK(o)*) white as the light.
and was transfigured before them: and his face shone like the sun, and his raiment became white as the light.
3 And behold (it appeared *N(k)O*) to them Moses and Elijah talking with Him.
And they saw Moses and Elias talking with Him.
4 Answering now Peter said to Jesus; Lord, good it is for us here to be. If You wish, (I will make *N(K)O*) here three tabernacles, for You one and for Moses one and for Elijah one.
Then Peter said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou pleasest, let us make three tabernacles here, one for Thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5 While yet when he is speaking behold a cloud bright overshadowed them, and behold a voice out of the cloud saying; This is the Son of Mine the beloved in whom I am well pleased; do listen to Him.
And as he was speaking, lo a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him.
6 And having heard [it] the disciples fell upon face of them and were terrified greatly.
And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
7 And (he came *N(k)O*) Jesus, and (having touched *N(k)O*) them He said; do rise up and not do be afraid.
But Jesus came and touched them and said, Rise up and be not afraid.
8 Having lifted up and the eyes of them no [one] they saw only except (Himself *N(k)O*) Jesus alone.
And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw none but Jesus only.
9 And when are descending they (from *N(k)O*) the mountain instructed them Jesus saying; To no one shall tell the vision until that the Son of Man out from [the] dead (may be risen. *N(k)O*)
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, till the Son of man be risen from the dead.
10 And asked Him the disciples (of him *ko*) saying; Why then the scribes say that Elijah it behooves to come first?
And his disciples asked Him, saying, Why then do the scribes say, that Elias must first come?
11 And (Jesus *k*) answering He said (to them: *k*) Elijah indeed comes (first *K*) and will restore all things;
Jesus said unto them, Elias doth indeed come first, and shall set all things right.
12 I say however to you that Elijah already is come, and not they knew him but did to him as much as they desired; Thus also the Son of Man is about to suffer from them.
But I tell you that Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but did what they pleased to him: and so is the Son of man to suffer by them.
13 Then understood the disciples that concerning John the Baptist He spoke to them.
Then the disciples understood that He spake to them of John the baptist.
14 And when were coming (they *k*) to the crowd came to Him a man kneeling down ([to] Him *N(k)O*) and saying;
And when they were come to the multitude, there came to Him a man kneeling down and saying,
15 Lord, do have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic and miserably (suffers; *NK(O)*) often for he falls into the fire and often into the water.
Lord, have compassion upon my son, for he is lunatic and grievously afflicted; for he often falleth into the fire, and often into the water.
16 And I brought him to the disciples of You, and not they were able him to heal.
And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not heal him.
17 Answering now Jesus said; O generation unbelieving and perverted, until when with you will I be? Until when will I bear with you? do bring to Me him here.
Then Jesus answered and said, O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you?
18 And rebuked him Jesus, and went out from him the demon, and was healed the boy from the hour that.
Bring him here to me. And when Jesus rebuked him, the demon departed out of him, and the child was cured from that time.
19 Then having come the disciples to Jesus in private they said; Because of why we ourselves not were able to cast out it?
Then came the disciples to Jesus in private, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
20 And (Jesus *k*) (spoke *N(k)O*) to them; Because of the (little faith *N(K)O*) of you. Amen for I say to you; If you shall have faith as a seed of mustard, you will say to the mountain to this; do move (from here *N(k)O*) to there, and it will move; And no [thing] will be impossible for you.
And Jesus said unto them, because of your unbelief: for verily I tell you, if ye had but faith as a grain of mustard-seed, ye might say to this mountain, Remove from hence thither, and it shall remove: and nothing would be impossible to you.
21 (this now kind not goes out only except with prayer and with fastings. *KO*)
But this kind is not to be cast out but by prayer and fasting.
22 (When are abiding *N(K)O*) now they in Galilee said to them Jesus; Is about the Son of Man to be betrayed into [the] hands of men,
And while they were in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, the Son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men:
23 and they will kill Him, and on the third day He will be raised up. And they were grieved deeply.
and they will put Him to death, and the third day He shall be raised again. And they were exceedingly grieved.
24 When are coming now they to Capernaum came those the didrachmas collecting to Peter and said; The Teacher of you surely he pays the didrachmas?
And when they were come to Capernaum, the receivers of the tribute-money came to Peter and said, Doth not your master pay tribute? Yes, saith he.
25 He says; Yes. And (when *k*) (he having entered *N(k)O*) into the house anticipated him Jesus saying; What you do think, Simon? The kings of the earth from whom do they receive custom or tribute? From the sons of them or from strangers?
And when he came into the house, Jesus prevented him and said, What thinkest thou, Simon? Of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? Of their own children, or of other people?
26 (When saying *N(k)O*) (now *no*) (he, Peter *k*) From the strangers, one was saying to him Jesus; Then surely free are the sons.
Peter saith unto Him, Of others. Jesus answered him, Then are the children free:
27 That however not we may offend them, having gone to (*k*) sea do cast a hook and the (having raised *NK(o)*) first fish do take; and having opened the mouth of it you will find a four-drachma coin. That [which] having taken do give to them for Me and yourself.
but that we may not give them offence, go to the sea-side and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up, and open its mouth, and thou shalt find a piece of money: that take and give them for me and thee.
