Marcum 9
1 Et dicebat illis: Amen dico vobis, quia sunt quidam de hic stantibus, qui non gustabunt mortem donec videant regnum Dei veniens in virtute.
He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the kingdom of God come with power."
2 Et post dies sex assumit Jesus Petrum, et Jacobum, et Joannem, et ducit illos in montem excelsum seorsum solos, et transfiguratus est coram ipsis.
After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.
3 Et vestimenta ejus facta sunt splendentia, et candida nimis velut nix, qualia fullo non potest super terram candida facere.
His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.
4 Et apparuit illis Elias cum Moyse: et erant loquentes cum Jesu.
Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.
5 Et respondens Petrus, ait Jesu: Rabbi, bonum est nos hic esse: et faciamus tria tabernacula, tibi unum, et Moysi unum, et Eliæ unum.
Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
6 Non enim sciebat quid diceret: erant enim timore exterriti.
For he did not know what to answer, for they became very afraid.
7 Et facta est nubes obumbrans eos: et venit vox de nube, dicens: Hic est Filius meus carissimus: audite illum.
A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him."
8 Et statim circumspicientes, neminem amplius viderunt, nisi Jesum tantum secum.
Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them anymore, except Jesus alone.
9 Et descendentibus illis de monte, præcepit illis ne cuiquam quæ vidissent, narrarent: nisi cum Filius hominis a mortuis resurrexerit.
As they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no one what things they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10 Et verbum continuerunt apud se: conquirentes quid esset, cum a mortuis resurrexerit.
They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the "rising from the dead" meant.
11 Et interrogabant eum, dicentes: Quid ergo dicunt pharisæi et scribæ, quia Eliam oportet venire primum?
They asked him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"
12 Qui respondens, ait illis: Elias cum venerit primo, restituet omnia: et quomodo scriptum est in Filium hominis, ut multa patiatur et contemnatur.
And he said to them, "Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. And why is it written of the Son of Man that he should suffer many things and be rejected?
13 Sed dico vobis quia et Elias venit (et fecerunt illi quæcumque voluerunt) sicut scriptum est de eo.
But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him."
14 Et veniens ad discipulos suos, vidit turbam magnam circa eos, et scribas conquirentes cum illis.
And when they came to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes questioning them.
15 Et confestim omnis populus videns Jesum, stupefactus est, et expaverunt, et accurrentes salutabant eum.
Immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him.
16 Et interrogavit eos: Quid inter vos conquiritis?
He asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?"
17 Et respondens unus de turba, dixit: Magister, attuli filium meum ad te habentem spiritum mutum:
And one out of the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;
18 qui ubicumque eum apprehenderit, allidit illum, et spumat, et stridet dentibus, et arescit: et dixi discipulis tuis ut ejicerent illum, et non potuerunt.
and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and wastes away. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren't able."
19 Qui respondens eis, dixit: O generatio incredula, quamdiu apud vos ero? quamdiu vos patiar? afferte illum ad me.
And answering, he said to them, "You unbelieving generation, how long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him to me."
20 Et attulerunt eum. Et cum vidisset eum, statim spiritus conturbavit illum: et elisus in terram, volutabatur spumans.
They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.
21 Et interrogavit patrem ejus: Quantum temporis est ex quo ei hoc accidit? At ille ait: Ab infantia:
He asked his father, "How long has it been since this has come to him?" He said, "From childhood.
22 et frequenter eum in ignem, et in aquas misit ut eum perderet: sed si quid potes, adjuva nos, misertus nostri.
And it has often cast him both into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us, and help us."
23 Jesus autem ait illi: Si potes credere, omnia possibilia sunt credenti.
Jesus said to him, "'If you can?' All things are possible to him who believes."
24 Et continuo exclamans pater pueri, cum lacrimis aiebat: Credo, Domine; adjuva incredulitatem meam.
Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, "I believe. Help my unbelief."
25 Et cum videret Jesus concurrentem turbam, comminatus est spiritui immundo, dicens illi: Surde et mute spiritus, ego præcipio tibi, exi ab eo: et amplius ne introëas in eum.
When Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again."
26 Et exclamans, et multum discerpens eum, exiit ab eo, et factus est sicut mortuus, ita ut multi dicerent: Quia mortuus est.
Having screamed, and convulsed greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead; so much that most of them said, "He is dead."
27 Jesus autem tenens manum ejus elevavit eum, et surrexit.
But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.
28 Et cum introisset in domum, discipuli ejus secreto interrogabant eum: Quare nos non potuimus ejicere eum?
And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?"
29 Et dixit illis: Hoc genus in nullo potest exire, nisi in oratione et jejunio.
And he said to them, "This kind cannot come out by anything but prayer and fasting."
30 Et inde profecti prætergrediebantur Galilæam: nec volebat quemquam scire.
They went out from there, and passed through Galilee. He did not want anyone to know it.
31 Docebat autem discipulos suos, et dicebat illis: Quoniam Filius hominis tradetur in manus hominum, et occident eum, et occisus tertia die resurget.
For he was teaching his disciples, and said to them, "The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, after three days he will rise again."
32 At illi ignorabant verbum: et timebant interrogare eum.
But they did not understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.
33 Et venerunt Capharnaum. Qui cum domi essent, interrogabat eos: Quid in via tractabatis?
He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you arguing on the way?"
34 At illi tacebant: siquidem in via inter se disputaverunt: quis eorum major esset.
But they were silent, for they had disputed one with another on the way about who was the greatest.
35 Et residens vocavit duodecim, et ait illis: Si quis vult primus esse, erit omnium novissimus, et omnium minister.
And he sat down, and called the twelve; and he said to them, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be last of all, and servant of all."
36 Et accipiens puerum, statuit eum in medio eorum: quem cum complexus esset, ait illis:
He took a little child, and set him in the midst of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,
37 Quisquis unum ex hujusmodi pueris receperit in nomine meo, me recipit: et quicumque me susceperit, non me suscipit, sed eum qui misit me.
"Whoever receives one such little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me, does not receive me, but him who sent me."
38 Respondit illi Joannes, dicens: Magister, vidimus quemdam in nomine tuo ejicientem dæmonia, qui non sequitur nos, et prohibuimus eum.
John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he was not following us."
39 Jesus autem ait: Nolite prohibere eum: nemo est enim qui faciat virtutem in nomine meo, et possit cito male loqui de me:
But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.
40 qui enim non est adversum vos, pro vobis est.
For whoever is not against us is for us.
41 Quisquis enim potum dederit vobis calicem aquæ in nomine meo, quia Christi estis: amen dico vobis, non perdet mercedem suam.
For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to the Christ, truly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.
42 Et quisquis scandalizaverit unum ex his pusillis credentibus in me: bonum est ei magis si circumdaretur mola asinaria collo ejus, et in mare mitteretur.
Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he was thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.
43 Et si scandalizaverit te manus tua, abscide illam: bonum est tibi debilem introire in vitam, quam duas manus habentem ire in gehennam, in ignem inextinguibilem, (Geenna g1067)
If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, (Geenna g1067)
44 ubi vermis eorum non moritur, et ignis non extinguitur.
45 Et si pes tuus te scandalizat, amputa illum: bonum est tibi claudum introire in vitam æternam, quam duos pedes habentem mitti in gehennam ignis inextinguibilis, (Geenna g1067)
If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
46 ubi vermis eorum non moritur, et ignis non extinguitur.
47 Quod si oculus tuus scandalizat te, ejice eum: bonum est tibi luscum introire in regnum Dei, quam duos oculos habentem mitti in gehennam ignis, (Geenna g1067)
If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell, (Geenna g1067)
48 ubi vermis eorum non moritur, et ignis non extinguitur.
'where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.'
49 Omnis enim igne salietur, et omnis victima sale salietur.
For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.
50 Bonum est sal: quod si sal insulsum fuerit, in quo illud condietis? Habete in vobis sal, et pacem habete inter vos.
Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how can you make it salty? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."
