4 And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
And there appeared to them Elias with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.
5 And Peter answering saith to Jesus, 'Rabbi, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elijah one:'
And Peter answering, said to Jesus: Rabbi, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
6 for he was not knowing what he might say, for they were greatly afraid.

And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them not to tell any man what things they had seen, till the Son of man shall be risen again from the dead.
10 and the thing they kept to themselves, questioning together what the rising out of the dead is.
And they kept the word to themselves; questioning together what that should mean, when he shall be risen from the dead.
11 And they were questioning him, saying, that the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first.
And they asked him, saying: Why then do the Pharisees and scribes say that Elias must come first?
12 And he answering said to them, 'Elijah indeed, having come first, doth restore all things; and how hath it been written concerning the Son of Man, that many things he may suffer, and be set at nought?
Who answering, said to them: Elias, when he shall come first, shall restore all things; and as it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things and be despised.
13 But I say to you, That also Elijah hath come, and they did to him what they willed, as it hath been written of him.'
But I say to you, that Elias also is come, (and they have done to him whatsoever they would, ) as it is written of him.
14 And having come unto the disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning with them,

17 and one out of the multitude answering said, 'Teacher, I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;
And one of the multitude, answering, said: Master, I have brought my son to thee, having a dumb spirit.
18 and wherever it doth seize him, it doth tear him, and he foameth, and gnasheth his teeth, and pineth away; and I spake to thy disciples that they may cast it out, and they were not able.'
Who, wheresoever he taketh him, dasheth him, and he foameth, and gnasheth with the teeth, and pineth away; and I spoke to thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.
19 And he answering him, said, 'O generation unbelieving, till when shall I be with you? till when shall I suffer you? bring him unto me;'
Who answering them, said: O incredulous generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
20 and they brought him unto him, and he having seen him, immediately the spirit tare him, and he, having fallen upon the earth, was wallowing — foaming.
And they brought him. And when he had seen him, immediately the spirit troubled him; and being thrown down upon the ground, he rolled about foaming.
21 And he questioned his father, 'How long time is it since this came to him?' and he said, 'From childhood,

And oftentimes hath he cast him into the fire and into waters to destroy him. But if thou canst do any thing, help us, having compassion on us.

And immediately the father of the boy crying out, with tears said: I do believe, Lord: help my unbelief.
25 Jesus having seen that a multitude doth run together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, 'Spirit — dumb and deaf — I charge thee, come forth out of him, and no more thou mayest enter into him;'
And when Jesus saw the multitude running together, he threatened the unclean spirit, saying to him: Deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee, go out of him; and enter not any more into him.
26 and having cried, and rent him much, it came forth, and he became as dead, so that many said that he was dead,

28 And he having come into the house, his disciples were questioning him by himself — 'Why were we not able to cast it forth?'
And when he was come into the house, his disciples secretly asked him: Why could not we cast him out?
29 And he said to them, 'This kind is able to come forth with nothing except with prayer and fasting.'
And he said to them: This kind can go out by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
30 And having gone forth thence, they were passing through Galilee, and he did not wish that any may know,
And departing from thence, they passed through Galilee, and he would not that any man should know it.
31 for he was teaching his disciples, and he said to them, 'The Son of Man is being delivered to the hands of men, and they shall kill him, and having been killed the third day he shall rise,'
And he taught his disciple, and said to them: The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise again the third day.
32 but they were not understanding the saying, and they were afraid to question him.
But they understood not the word, and they were afraid to ask him.
33 And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he was questioning them, 'What were ye reasoning in the way among yourselves?'
And they came to Capharnaum. And when they were in the house, he asked them: What did you treat of in the way?
34 and they were silent, for with one another they did reason in the way who is greater;
But they held their peace, for in the way they had disputed among themselves, which of them should be the greatest.
35 and having sat down he called the twelve, and he saith to them, 'If any doth will to be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.'

36 And having taken a child, he set him in the midst of them, and having taken him in his arms, said to them,
And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them. Whom when he had embraced, he saith to them:
37 'Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth not receive me, but Him who sent me.'
Whosoever shall receive one such child as this in my name, receiveth me. And whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
38 And John did answer him, saying, 'Teacher, we saw a certain one in thy name casting out demons, who doth not follow us, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow us.'
John answered him, saying: Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, who followeth not us, and we forbade him.
39 And Jesus said, 'Forbid him not, for there is no one who shall do a mighty work in my name, and shall be able readily to speak evil of me:
But Jesus said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a miracle in my name, and can soon speak ill of me.
40 for he who is not against us is for us;
For he that is not against you, is for you.

For whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because you belong to Christ: amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.
42 and whoever may cause to stumble one of the little ones believing in me, better is it for him if a millstone is hanged about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea.
And whosoever shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me; it were better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
43 'And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee maimed to enter into the life, than having the two hands, to go away to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable — (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life, maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into unquenchable fire: (Geenna g1067)
44 where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.
Where there worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
45 'And if thy foot may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into the life lame, than having the two feet to be cast to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable — (Geenna g1067)
And if thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter lame into life everlasting, than having two feet, to be cast into the hell of unquenchable fire: (Geenna g1067)
46 where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
47 And if thine eye may cause thee to stumble, cast it out; it is better for thee one-eyed to enter into the reign of God, than having two eyes, to be cast to the gehenna of the fire — (Geenna g1067)
And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out. It is better for thee with one eye to enter into the kingdom of God, than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire: (Geenna g1067)
48 where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched;
Where the worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
49 for every one with fire shall be salted, and every sacrifice with salt shall be salted.
For every one shall be salted with fire: and every victim shall be salted with salt.
50 The salt [is] good, but if the salt may become saltless, in what will ye season [it]? Have in yourselves salt, and have peace in one another.'
Salt is good. But if the salt became unsavoury; wherewith will you season it? Have salt in you, and have peace among you.
