Mark 9
New International Version
9 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)
2 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. 3 His clothes became dazzling white,(F) whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. 4 And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus.
5 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.” 6 (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.)
7 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)
8 Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.
9 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
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)

New King James Version
The Transfiguration of Christ(A)
9 And He said to them, (B)“Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see (C)the kingdom of God [a]present with power.”
Jesus Transfigured on the Mount
2 (D)Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. 3 His clothes became shining, exceedingly (E)white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them. 4 And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. 5 Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah”— 6 because he did not know what to say, for they were greatly afraid.
7 And a (F)cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is (G)My beloved Son. (H)Hear Him!” 8 Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.
9 (I)Now as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead. 10 So they kept this word to themselves, questioning (J)what the rising from the dead meant.
11 And they asked Him, saying, “Why do the scribes say (K)that Elijah must come first?”
12 Then He answered and told them, “Indeed, Elijah is coming first and restores all things. And (L)how is it written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and (M)be treated with contempt? 13 But I say to you that (N)Elijah has also come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it is written of him.”
A Boy Is Healed(O)
14 (P)And when He came to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them, and scribes disputing with them. 15 Immediately, when they saw Him, all the people were greatly amazed, and running to Him, greeted Him. 16 And He asked the scribes, “What are you discussing with them?”
17 Then (Q)one of the crowd answered and said, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit. 18 And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not.”
19 He answered him and said, “O (R)faithless[b] generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I [c]bear with you? Bring him to Me.” 20 Then they brought him to Him. And (S)when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.
21 So He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?”
And he said, “From childhood. 22 And often he has thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”
23 Jesus said to him, (T)“If[d] you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; (U)help my unbelief!”
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He (V)rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!” 26 Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead, so that many said, “He is dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.
28 (W)And when He had come into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?”
29 So He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing but (X)prayer [e]and fasting.”
Jesus Again Predicts His Death and Resurrection
30 Then they departed from there and passed through Galilee, and He did not want anyone to know it. 31 (Y)For He taught His disciples and said to them, “The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of men, and they will (Z)kill Him. And after He is killed, He will (AA)rise the third day.” 32 But they (AB)did not understand this saying, and were afraid to ask Him.
Who Is the Greatest?(AC)
33 (AD)Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He asked them, “What was it you [f]disputed among yourselves on the road?” 34 But they kept silent, for on the road they had (AE)disputed among themselves who would be the (AF)greatest. 35 And He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, (AG)“If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.” 36 Then (AH)He took a little child and set him in the midst of them. And when He had taken him in His arms, He said to them, 37 “Whoever receives one of these little children in My name receives Me; and (AI)whoever receives Me, receives not Me but Him who sent Me.”
Jesus Forbids Sectarianism(AJ)
38 (AK)Now John answered Him, saying, “Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us.”
39 But Jesus said, “Do not forbid him, (AL)for no one who works a miracle in My name can soon afterward speak evil of Me. 40 For (AM)he who is not against [g]us is on [h]our side. 41 (AN)For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.
Jesus Warns of Offenses(AO)
42 (AP)“But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me [i]to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea. 43 (AQ)If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life [j]maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to [k]hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched— 44 [l]where
(AR)‘Their worm does not die
And the fire is not quenched.’
45 And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into [m]hell, [n]into the fire that shall never be quenched— 46 where
(AS)‘Their worm does not die
And the fire is not quenched.’
47 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into [o]hell fire— 48 where
Tasteless Salt Is Worthless
49 “For everyone will be (AV)seasoned with fire, (AW)and[p] every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. 50 (AX)Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? (AY)Have salt in yourselves, and (AZ)have peace with one another.”

9 Il leur dit encore: Je vous le dis en vérité, quelques-uns de ceux qui sont ici ne mourront point, qu'ils n'aient vu le royaume de Dieu venir avec puissance.
2 Six jours après, Jésus prit avec lui Pierre, Jacques et Jean, et il les conduisit seuls à l'écart sur une haute montagne. Il fut transfiguré devant eux;
3 ses vêtements devinrent resplendissants, et d'une telle blancheur qu'il n'est pas de foulon sur la terre qui puisse blanchir ainsi.
4 Élie et Moïse leur apparurent, s'entretenant avec Jésus.
5 Pierre, prenant la parole, dit à Jésus: Rabbi, il est bon que nous soyons ici; dressons trois tentes, une pour toi, une pour Moïse, et une pour Élie.
6 Car il ne savait que dire, l'effroi les ayant saisis.
7 Une nuée vint les couvrir, et de la nuée sortit une voix: Celui-ci est mon Fils bien-aimé: écoutez-le!
8 Aussitôt les disciples regardèrent tout autour, et ils ne virent que Jésus seul avec eux.
9 Comme ils descendaient de la montagne, Jésus leur recommanda de ne dire à personne ce qu'ils avaient vu, jusqu'à ce que le Fils de l'homme fût ressuscité des morts.
10 Ils retinrent cette parole, se demandant entre eux ce que c'est que ressusciter des morts.
11 Les disciples lui firent cette question: Pourquoi les scribes disent-ils qu'il faut qu'Élie vienne premièrement?
12 Il leur répondit: Élie viendra premièrement, et rétablira toutes choses. Et pourquoi est-il écrit du Fils de l'homme qu'il doit souffrir beaucoup et être méprisé?
13 Mais je vous dis qu'Élie est venu, et qu'ils l'ont traité comme ils ont voulu, selon qu'il est écrit de lui.
14 Lorsqu'ils furent arrivés près des disciples, ils virent autour d'eux une grande foule, et des scribes qui discutaient avec eux.
15 Dès que la foule vit Jésus, elle fut surprise, et accourut pour le saluer.
16 Il leur demanda: Sur quoi discutez-vous avec eux?
17 Et un homme de la foule lui répondit: Maître, j'ai amené auprès de toi mon fils, qui est possédé d'un esprit muet.
18 En quelque lieu qu'il le saisisse, il le jette par terre; l'enfant écume, grince des dents, et devient tout raide. J'ai prié tes disciples de chasser l'esprit, et ils n'ont pas pu.
19 Race incrédule, leur dit Jésus, jusques à quand serai-je avec vous? jusques à quand vous supporterai-je? Amenez-le-moi. On le lui amena.
20 Et aussitôt que l'enfant vit Jésus, l'esprit l'agita avec violence; il tomba par terre, et se roulait en écumant.
21 Jésus demanda au père: Combien y a-t-il de temps que cela lui arrive? Depuis son enfance, répondit-il.
22 Et souvent l'esprit l'a jeté dans le feu et dans l'eau pour le faire périr. Mais, si tu peux quelque chose, viens à notre secours, aie compassion de nous.
23 Jésus lui dit: Si tu peux!... Tout est possible à celui qui croit.
24 Aussitôt le père de l'enfant s'écria: Je crois! viens au secours de mon incrédulité!
25 Jésus, voyant accourir la foule, menaça l'esprit impur, et lui dit: Esprit muet et sourd, je te l'ordonne, sors de cet enfant, et n'y rentre plus.
26 Et il sortit, en poussant des cris, et en l'agitant avec une grande violence. L'enfant devint comme mort, de sorte que plusieurs disaient qu'il était mort.
27 Mais Jésus, l'ayant pris par la main, le fit lever. Et il se tint debout.
28 Quand Jésus fut entré dans la maison, ses disciples lui demandèrent en particulier: Pourquoi n'avons-nous pu chasser cet esprit?
29 Il leur dit: Cette espèce-là ne peut sortir que par la prière.
30 Ils partirent de là, et traversèrent la Galilée. Jésus ne voulait pas qu'on le sût.
31 Car il enseignait ses disciples, et il leur dit: Le Fils de l'homme sera livré entre les mains des hommes; ils le feront mourir, et, trois jours après qu'il aura été mis à mort, il ressuscitera.
32 Mais les disciples ne comprenaient pas cette parole, et ils craignaient de l'interroger.
33 Ils arrivèrent à Capernaüm. Lorsqu'il fut dans la maison, Jésus leur demanda: De quoi discutiez-vous en chemin?
34 Mais ils gardèrent le silence, car en chemin ils avaient discuté entre eux pour savoir qui était le plus grand.
35 Alors il s'assit, appela les douze, et leur dit: Si quelqu'un veut être le premier, il sera le dernier de tous et le serviteur de tous.
36 Et il prit un petit enfant, le plaça au milieu d'eux, et l'ayant pris dans ses bras, il leur dit:
37 Quiconque reçoit en mon nom un de ces petits enfants me reçoit moi-même; et quiconque me reçoit, reçoit non pas moi, mais celui qui m'a envoyé.
38 Jean lui dit: Maître, nous avons vu un homme qui chasse des démons en ton nom; et nous l'en avons empêché, parce qu'il ne nous suit pas.
39 Ne l'en empêchez pas, répondit Jésus, car il n'est personne qui, faisant un miracle en mon nom, puisse aussitôt après parler mal de moi.
40 Qui n'est pas contre nous est pour nous.
41 Et quiconque vous donnera à boire un verre d'eau en mon nom, parce que vous appartenez à Christ, je vous le dis en vérité, il ne perdra point sa récompense.
42 Mais, si quelqu'un scandalisait un de ces petits qui croient, il vaudrait mieux pour lui qu'on lui mît au cou une grosse meule de moulin, et qu'on le jetât dans la mer.
43 Si ta main est pour toi une occasion de chute, coupe-la; mieux vaut pour toi entrer manchot dans la vie,
44 que d'avoir les deux mains et d'aller dans la géhenne, dans le feu qui ne s'éteint point.
45 Si ton pied est pour toi une occasion de chute, coupe-le; mieux vaut pour toi entrer boiteux dans la vie,
46 que d'avoir les deux pieds et d'être jeté dans la géhenne, dans le feu qui ne s'éteint point.
47 Et si ton oeil est pour toi une occasion de chute, arrache-le; mieux vaut pour toi entrer dans le royaume de Dieu n'ayant qu'un oeil, que d'avoir deux yeux et d'être jeté dans la géhenne,
48 où leur ver ne meurt point, et où le feu ne s'éteint point.
49 Car tout homme sera salé de feu.
50 Le sel est une bonne chose; mais si le sel devient sans saveur, avec quoi l'assaisonnerez-vous? (9:51) Ayez du sel en vous-mêmes, et soyez en paix les uns avec les autres.
