Azután monda nékik: Bizony mondom néktek, hogy vannak némelyek az itt állók között, a kik nem kóstolnak addig halált, a míg meg nem látják, hogy az Isten országa eljött hatalommal.

És hat nap múlva magához vevé Jézus Pétert és Jakabot és Jánost, és felvivé õket csupán magukban egy magas hegyre. És elváltozék elõttük;

És a ruhája fényes lõn, igen fehér, mint a hó, mihez hasonlót a ruhafestõ e földön nem fehéríthet.

És megjelenék nékik Mózes Illéssel együtt, és beszélnek vala Jézussal.

Péter pedig megszólalván, monda Jézusnak: Mester, jó nékünk itt lenni: csináljunk azért három hajlékot, néked egyet, Mózesnek is egyet, Illésnek is egyet.

De nem tudja vala mit beszél, mivelhogy megrémülének.

És felhõ támada, mely õket befogá, és a felhõbõl szózat jöve, mondván: Ez az én szerelmes Fiam; õt hallgassátok.

És mikor nagyhirtelen körültekintének, senkit sem látának többé maguk körül, egyedül a Jézust.

Mikor pedig a hegyrõl leszállának, megparancsolá nékik, hogy senkinek se beszéljék el, a mit láttak vala, csak a mikor az embernek Fia a halálból feltámad.

10 És ezt a szót megtarták magukban, tudakozván egymás között, mit tesz a halálból feltámadni?

11 És megkérdezék õt, mondván: Miért mondják az írástudók, hogy elõbb Illésnek kell eljõnie?

12 Õ pedig felelvén, monda nékik: Illés ugyan elõbb eljövén helyre állít mindent; de hogyan van az embernek Fiáról megírva, hogy sokat kell szenvednie és megvettetnie?

13 De mondom néktek, hogy Illés is eljött, és azt cselekedték vele, a mit akartak, a mint meg van írva õ felõle.

14 És mikor a tanítványokhoz ment vala, nagy sokaságot láta körülöttök, és írástudókat, a kik azokkal versengenek vala.

15 És az egész sokaság meglátván õt, azonnal elálmélkodék, és hozzásietvén köszönté õt.

16 Õ pedig megkérdezé az írástudókat: Mit versengetek ezekkel?

17 És felelvén egy a sokaságból, monda: Mester, ide hoztam hozzád az én fiamat, a kiben néma lélek van.

18 És a hol csak elõfogja, szaggatja õt; õ pedig tajtékot túr, a fogát csikorgatja, és elfonnyad. Mondám hát tanítványaidnak, hogy ûzzék ki azt, de nem tudták.

19 Õ pedig felelvén néki, monda: Óh hitetlen nemzetség, meddig leszek még veletek? Meddig szenvedlek még titeket? Hozzátok õt hozzám.

20 És hozzá vivék azt; és mihelyt õ meglátta azt, a lélek azonnal szaggatá azt; és leesvén a földre, tajtékot túrván fetreng vala.

21 És megkérdezé az atyját: Mennyi ideje, hogy ez esett rajta? Az pedig monda: Gyermeksége óta.

22 És gyakorta veté õt tûzbe is, vízbe is, hogy elveszítse õt; de ha valamit tehetsz, légy segítségül nékünk, könyörülvén rajtunk.

23 Jézus pedig monda néki: Ha hiheted azt, minden lehetséges a hívõnek.

24 A gyermek atyja pedig azonnal kiáltván, könnyhullatással monda: Hiszek Uram! Légy segítségül az én hitetlenségemnek.

25 Jézus pedig mikor látta vala, hogy a sokaság még inkább összetódul, megdorgálá a tisztátalan lelket, mondván néki: Te néma és siket lélek, én parancsolom néked, menj ki belõle, és többé belé ne menj!

26 És kiáltás és erõs szaggatás között kiméne; az pedig olyan lõn, mint egy halott, annyira, hogy sokan azt mondják vala, hogy meghalt.

27 Jézus pedig megfogván kezét, fölemelé; és az fölkele.

28 Mikor pedig bement vala a házba, tanítványai megkérdezék õt külön: Mi miért nem ûzhettük ki azt?

29 Õ pedig monda nékik: Ez a faj semmivel sem ûzhetõ ki, csupán könyörgéssel és bõjtöléssel.

30 És onnét kimenvén, Galileán mennek vala át; és nem akará, hogy valaki megtudja.

31 Mert tanítja vala tanítványait, és ezt mondja vala nékik: Az embernek Fia az emberek kezébe adatik, és megölik õt; de ha megölték, harmadnapra föltámad.

32 De õk nem értik vala e mondást, és féltek õt megkérdezni.

33 És elméne Kapernaumba. És odahaza megkérdezé õket: Mi felett vetekedtetek egymással az úton?

34 De õk hallgatának, mert egymás között a felett vetekedtek vala az úton, ki a nagyobb?

35 És leülvén, odaszólítá a tizenkettõt, és monda nékik: Ha valaki elsõ akar lenni, legyen mindenek között utolsó és mindeneknek szolgája.

36 És elõfogván egy gyermeket, közéjök állatá azt; és ölébe vévén azt, monda nékik:

37 A ki az ilyen gyermekek közül egyet befogad az én nevemben, engem fogad be; és a ki engem befogad, nem engem fogad be, hanem azt, a ki engem elbocsátott.

38 János pedig felele néki, mondván: Mester, látánk valakit, a ki a te neveddel ördögöket ûz, a ki nem követ minket; és eltiltók õt, mivelhogy nem követ minket.

39 Jézus pedig monda: Ne tiltsátok el õt; mert senki sincs, a ki csodát tesz az én nevemben és mindjárt gonoszul szólhatna felõlem.

40 Mert a ki nincs ellenünk, mellettünk van.

41 Mert a ki innotok ád egy pohár vizet az én nevemben, mivelhogy a Krisztuséi vagytok, bizony mondom néktek, el nem veszti az õ jutalmát.

42 A ki pedig megbotránkoztat egyet ama kicsinyek közül, a kik én bennem hisznek, jobb annak, ha malomkövet kötnek a nyakára, és a tengerbe vetik.

43 És ha megbotránkoztat téged a te kezed, vágd le azt: jobb néked csonkán bemenned az életre, mint két kézzel menned a gyehennára, a megolthatatlan tûzre.

44 A hol az õ férgök meg nem hal, és tüzök el nem aluszik.

45 És ha a te lábad botránkoztat meg téged, vágd le azt: jobb néked sántán bemenned az életre, mint két lábbal vettetned a gyehennára, a megolthatatlan tûzre.

46 A hol az õ férgök meg nem hal, és tüzök el nem aluszik.

47 És ha a te szemed botránkoztat meg téged, vájd ki azt: jobb néked félszemmel bemenned az Isten országába, mint két szemmel vettetned a tüzes gyehennára.

48 A hol az õ férgök meg nem hal, és tüzök el nem aluszik.

49 Mert mindenki tûzzel sózatik meg, és minden áldozat sóval sózatik meg.

50 Jó a só: de ha a só ízét veszti, mivel adtok ízt néki? Legyen bennetek só, és legyetek békében egymással.

And he said to them, “Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not (A)taste death (B)until they see the kingdom of God after it has come (C)with power.”

The Transfiguration

(D)And after six days Jesus took with him (E)Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was (F)transfigured before them, and (G)his clothes became radiant, intensely white, as no one[a] on earth could bleach them. And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. And Peter said to Jesus, (H)“Rabbi,[b] it is good that we are here. Let us make three (I)tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” For (J)he did not know what to say, for they were terrified. And (K)a cloud overshadowed them, and (L)a voice came out of the cloud, (M)“This is my beloved Son;[c] (N)listen to him.” And suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them but Jesus only.

(O)And as they were coming down the mountain, (P)he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, (Q)until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. 10 (R)So they kept the matter to themselves, (S)questioning what this rising from the dead might mean. 11 And they asked him, “Why do the scribes say (T)that first Elijah must come?” 12 And he said to them, “Elijah does come first (U)to restore all things. And (V)how is it written of the Son of Man that he should (W)suffer many things and (X)be treated with contempt? 13 But I tell you that Elijah has come, and (Y)they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him.”

Jesus Heals a Boy with an Unclean Spirit

14 (Z)And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them. 15 And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, (AA)were greatly amazed and ran up to him and greeted him. 16 And he asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?” 17 And someone from the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has (AB)a spirit that makes him mute. 18 And whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples to cast it out, and (AC)they were not able.” 19 And he answered them, “O (AD)faithless generation, (AE)how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me.” 20 And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it (AF)convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth. 21 And Jesus asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. 22 And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But (AG)if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” 23 And Jesus said to him, (AH)“‘If you can’! (AI)All things are possible for one who believes.” 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out[d] and said, “I believe; (AJ)help my unbelief!” 25 And when Jesus saw that (AK)a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, (AL)“You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” 26 And after crying out and (AM)convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, “He is dead.” 27 But Jesus (AN)took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose. 28 And when he had (AO)entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?” 29 And he said to them, “This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.”[e]

Jesus Again Foretells Death, Resurrection

30 (AP)They went on from there and passed through Galilee. And he did not want anyone to know, 31 for he was teaching his disciples, saying to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him. And when he is killed, (AQ)after three days he will rise.” 32 (AR)But they did not understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.

Who Is the Greatest?

33 And (AS)they came to Capernaum. And when he was in the house (AT)he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?” 34 But they kept silent, for on the way (AU)they had argued with one another about who was the greatest. 35 And he sat down and called the twelve. And he said to them, (AV)“If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.” 36 And he took a child and put him in the midst of them, and (AW)taking him in his arms, he said to them, 37 (AX)“Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, and (AY)whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me.”

Anyone Not Against Us Is for Us

38 (AZ)John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone (BA)casting out demons in your name,[f] and (BB)we tried to stop him, because he was not following us.” 39 But Jesus said, “Do not stop him, for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me. 40 (BC)For the one who is not against us is for us. 41 For truly, I say to you, (BD)whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because[g] you belong to Christ will by no means lose his reward.

Temptations to Sin

42 (BE)“Whoever causes one of (BF)these little ones who believe in me to sin,[h] (BG)it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. 43 (BH)And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to (BI)hell,[i] to (BJ)the unquenchable fire.[j] 45 (BK)And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into (BL)hell. 47 (BM)And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into (BN)hell, 48 ‘where (BO)their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’ 49 For everyone will be salted with fire.[k] 50 (BP)Salt is good, (BQ)but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how will you make it salty again? (BR)Have salt in yourselves, and (BS)be at peace with one another.”

And he said to them, “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see that the kingdom of God has come(A) with power.”(B)

The Transfiguration(C)(D)

After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John(E) with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. His clothes became dazzling white,(F) whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus.

Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(G) it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.)

Then a cloud appeared and covered them, and a voice came from the cloud:(H) “This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to him!”(I)

Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.

As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone(J) what they had seen until the Son of Man(K) had risen from the dead. 10 They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.

11 And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”

12 Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man(L) must suffer much(M) and be rejected?(N) 13 But I tell you, Elijah has come,(O) and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”

Jesus Heals a Boy Possessed by an Impure Spirit(P)

14 When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them. 15 As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with wonder and ran to greet him.

16 “What are you arguing with them about?” he asked.

17 A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech. 18 Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but they could not.”

19 “You unbelieving generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.”

20 So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.(Q)

21 Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has he been like this?”

“From childhood,” he answered. 22 “It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.”

23 “‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.”(R)

24 Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”

25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene,(S) he rebuked the impure spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” he said, “I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”

26 The spirit shrieked, convulsed him violently and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He’s dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up.

28 After Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately,(T) “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

29 He replied, “This kind can come out only by prayer.[a]

Jesus Predicts His Death a Second Time(U)

30 They left that place and passed through Galilee. Jesus did not want anyone to know where they were, 31 because he was teaching his disciples. He said to them, “The Son of Man(V) is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him,(W) and after three days(X) he will rise.”(Y) 32 But they did not understand what he meant(Z) and were afraid to ask him about it.

33 They came to Capernaum.(AA) When he was in the house,(AB) he asked them, “What were you arguing about on the road?” 34 But they kept quiet because on the way they had argued about who was the greatest.(AC)

35 Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”(AD)

36 He took a little child whom he placed among them. Taking the child in his arms,(AE) he said to them, 37 “Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.”(AF)

Whoever Is Not Against Us Is for Us(AG)

38 “Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.”(AH)

39 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, 40 for whoever is not against us is for us.(AI) 41 Truly I tell you, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to the Messiah will certainly not lose their reward.(AJ)

Causing to Stumble

42 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble,(AK) it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea.(AL) 43 If your hand causes you to stumble,(AM) cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell,(AN) where the fire never goes out.(AO) [44] [b] 45 And if your foot causes you to stumble,(AP) cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.(AQ) [46] [c] 47 And if your eye causes you to stumble,(AR) pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,(AS) 48 where

“‘the worms that eat them do not die,
    and the fire is not quenched.’[d](AT)

49 Everyone will be salted(AU) with fire.

50 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again?(AV) Have salt among yourselves,(AW) and be at peace with each other.”(AX)
