Dios Habla Hoy
Jesús envía a los discípulos a anunciar el reino de Dios(A)
9 Jesús reunió a sus doce discípulos, y les dio poder y autoridad para expulsar toda clase de demonios y para curar enfermedades. 2 Los envió a anunciar el reino de Dios y a sanar a los enfermos. 3 Les dijo:
—No lleven nada para el camino: ni bastón, ni bolsa, ni pan, ni dinero, ni ropa de repuesto. 4 En cualquier casa donde lleguen, quédense hasta que se vayan del lugar. 5 Y si en algún pueblo no los quieren recibir, salgan de él y sacúdanse el polvo de los pies, para que les sirva a ellos de advertencia.
6 Salieron ellos, pues, y fueron por todas las aldeas, anunciando la buena noticia y sanando enfermos.
Incertidumbre de Herodes(B)
7 El rey Herodes oyó hablar de todo lo que sucedía; y no sabía qué pensar, porque unos decían que Juan había resucitado, 8 otros decían que había aparecido el profeta Elías, y otros decían que era alguno de los antiguos profetas, que había resucitado. 9 Pero Herodes dijo:
—Yo mismo mandé que le cortaran la cabeza a Juan. ¿Quién será entonces este, de quien oigo contar tantas cosas?
Por eso Herodes procuraba ver a Jesús.
Jesús da de comer a una multitud(C)
10 Cuando los apóstoles regresaron, contaron a Jesús lo que habían hecho. Él, tomándolos aparte, los llevó a un pueblo llamado Betsaida. 11 Pero cuando la gente lo supo, lo siguieron; y Jesús los recibió, les habló del reino de Dios y sanó a los enfermos.
12 Cuando ya comenzaba a hacerse tarde, se acercaron a Jesús los doce discípulos y le dijeron:
—Despide a la gente, para que vayan a descansar y a buscar comida por las aldeas y los campos cercanos, porque en este lugar no hay nada.
13 Jesús les dijo:
—Denles ustedes de comer.
Ellos contestaron:
—No tenemos más que cinco panes y dos pescados, a menos que vayamos a comprar comida para toda esta gente.
14 Pues eran unos cinco mil hombres. Pero Jesús dijo a sus discípulos:
—Háganlos sentarse en grupos como de cincuenta.
15 Ellos obedecieron e hicieron sentar a todos. 16 Luego Jesús tomó en sus manos los cinco panes y los dos pescados y, mirando al cielo, pronunció sobre ellos la bendición, los partió y se los dio a sus discípulos para que los repartieran entre la gente. 17 La gente comió hasta quedar satisfecha, y recogieron en doce canastos los pedazos sobrantes.
Pedro declara que Jesús es el Mesías(D)
18 Un día en que Jesús estaba orando solo, y sus discípulos estaban con él, les preguntó:
—¿Quién dice la gente que soy yo?
19 Ellos contestaron:
—Algunos dicen que eres Juan el Bautista, otros dicen que eres Elías, y otros dicen que eres uno de los antiguos profetas, que ha resucitado.
20 —Y ustedes, ¿quién dicen que soy? —les preguntó.
Y Pedro le respondió:
—Eres el Mesías de Dios.
Jesús anuncia su muerte(E)
21 Pero Jesús les encargó mucho que no dijeran esto a nadie. 22 Y les dijo:
—El Hijo del hombre tendrá que sufrir mucho, y será rechazado por los ancianos, por los jefes de los sacerdotes y por los maestros de la ley. Lo van a matar, pero al tercer día resucitará.
23 Después les dijo a todos:
—Si alguno quiere ser discípulo mío, olvídese de sí mismo, cargue con su cruz cada día y sígame. 24 Porque el que quiera salvar su vida, la perderá; pero el que pierda la vida por causa mía, la salvará. 25 ¿De qué le sirve al hombre ganar el mundo entero, si se pierde o se destruye a sí mismo? 26 Pues si alguno se avergüenza de mí y de mi mensaje, también el Hijo del hombre se avergonzará de él cuando venga con su gloria y con la gloria de su Padre y de los santos ángeles. 27 Les aseguro que algunos de los que están aquí presentes no morirán sin antes haber visto el reino de Dios.
La transfiguración de Jesús(F)
28 Unos ocho días después de esta conversación, Jesús subió a un cerro a orar, acompañado de Pedro, Santiago y Juan. 29 Mientras oraba, el aspecto de su cara cambió, y su ropa se volvió muy blanca y brillante; 30 y aparecieron dos hombres conversando con él. Eran Moisés y Elías, 31 que estaban rodeados de un resplandor glorioso y hablaban de la partida de Jesús de este mundo, que iba a tener lugar en Jerusalén. 32 Aunque Pedro y sus compañeros tenían mucho sueño, permanecieron despiertos, y vieron la gloria de Jesús y a los dos hombres que estaban con él. 33 Cuando aquellos hombres se separaban ya de Jesús, Pedro le dijo:
—Maestro, ¡qué bien que estemos aquí! Vamos a hacer tres chozas: una para ti, otra para Moisés y otra para Elías.
Pero Pedro no sabía lo que decía. 34 Mientras hablaba, una nube se posó sobre ellos, y al verse dentro de la nube tuvieron miedo. 35 Entonces de la nube salió una voz, que dijo: «Éste es mi Hijo, mi elegido: escúchenlo.»
36 Cuando se escuchó esa voz, Jesús quedó solo. Pero ellos mantuvieron esto en secreto y en aquel tiempo a nadie dijeron nada de lo que habían visto.
Jesús sana a un muchacho que tenía un espíritu impuro(G)
37 Al día siguiente, cuando bajaron del cerro, una gran multitud salió al encuentro de Jesús. 38 Y un hombre de entre la gente le dijo con voz fuerte:
—Maestro, por favor, mira a mi hijo, que es el único que tengo; 39 un espíritu lo agarra, y hace que grite y que le den ataques y que eche espuma por la boca. Lo maltrata y no lo quiere soltar. 40 He rogado a tus discípulos que le saquen ese espíritu, pero no han podido.
41 Jesús contestó:
—¡Oh gente sin fe y perversa! ¿Hasta cuándo tendré que estar con ustedes y soportarlos? Trae acá a tu hijo.
42 Cuando el muchacho se acercaba, el demonio lo tiró al suelo e hizo que le diera otro ataque; pero Jesús reprendió al espíritu impuro, sanó al muchacho y se lo devolvió a su padre. 43 Y todos se quedaron admirados de la grandeza de Dios.
Jesús anuncia por segunda vez su muerte(H)
Mientras todos se maravillaban de lo que Jesús hacía, él dijo a sus discípulos:
44 —Oigan bien esto y no lo olviden: el Hijo del hombre va a ser entregado en manos de los hombres.
45 Pero ellos no entendían lo que les decía, pues todavía no se les había abierto el entendimiento para comprenderlo; además tenían miedo de pedirle a Jesús que se lo explicara.
¿Quién es el más importante?(I)
46 Por entonces los discípulos comenzaron a discutir quién de ellos sería el más importante. 47 Jesús, al darse cuenta de lo que estaban pensando, tomó a un niño, lo puso junto a él 48 y les dijo:
—El que recibe a este niño en mi nombre, me recibe a mí; y el que me recibe a mí, recibe también al que me envió. Por eso, el más insignificante entre todos ustedes, ése es el más importante.
El que no está contra nosotros, está a nuestro favor(J)
49 Juan le dijo:
—Maestro, hemos visto a uno que expulsaba demonios en tu nombre; y tratamos de impedírselo, porque no es de los nuestros.
50 Jesús le contestó:
—No se lo prohíban, porque el que no está contra nosotros, está a nuestro favor.
Jesús reprende a Santiago y a Juan
51 Cuando ya se acercaba el tiempo en que Jesús había de subir al cielo, emprendió con valor su viaje a Jerusalén. 52 Envió por delante mensajeros, que fueron a una aldea de Samaria para conseguirle alojamiento; 53 pero los samaritanos no quisieron recibirlo, porque se daban cuenta de que se dirigía a Jerusalén. 54 Cuando sus discípulos Santiago y Juan vieron esto, le dijeron:
—Señor, ¿quieres que ordenemos que baje fuego del cielo, y que acabe con ellos?
55 Pero Jesús se volvió y los reprendió. 56 Luego se fueron a otra aldea.
Para seguir a Jesús(K)
57 Mientras iban de camino, un hombre le dijo a Jesús:
—Señor, deseo seguirte a dondequiera que vayas.
58 Jesús le contestó:
—Las zorras tienen cuevas y las aves tienen nidos; pero el Hijo del hombre no tiene donde recostar la cabeza.
59 Jesús le dijo a otro:
—Sígueme.
Pero él respondió:
—Señor, déjame ir primero a enterrar a mi padre.
60 Jesús le contestó:
—Deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos; tú ve y anuncia el reino de Dios.
61 Otro le dijo:
—Señor, quiero seguirte, pero primero déjame ir a despedirme de los de mi casa.
62 Jesús le contestó:
—El que pone la mano en el arado y sigue mirando atrás, no sirve para el reino de Dios.

9 συγκαλεσαμενος δε τους δωδεκα μαθητας αυτου εδωκεν αυτοις δυναμιν και εξουσιαν επι παντα τα δαιμονια και νοσους θεραπευειν
2 και απεστειλεν αυτους κηρυσσειν την βασιλειαν του θεου και ιασθαι τους ασθενουντας
3 και ειπεν προς αυτους μηδεν αιρετε εις την οδον μητε ραβδους μητε πηραν μητε αρτον μητε αργυριον μητε ανα δυο χιτωνας εχειν
4 και εις ην αν οικιαν εισελθητε εκει μενετε και εκειθεν εξερχεσθε
5 και οσοι αν μη δεξωνται υμας εξερχομενοι απο της πολεως εκεινης και τον κονιορτον απο των ποδων υμων αποτιναξατε εις μαρτυριον επ αυτους
6 εξερχομενοι δε διηρχοντο κατα τας κωμας ευαγγελιζομενοι και θεραπευοντες πανταχου
7 ηκουσεν δε ηρωδης ο τετραρχης τα γινομενα υπ αυτου παντα και διηπορει δια το λεγεσθαι υπο τινων οτι ιωαννης εγηγερται εκ νεκρων
8 υπο τινων δε οτι ηλιας εφανη αλλων δε οτι προφητης εις των αρχαιων ανεστη
9 και ειπεν ο ηρωδης ιωαννην εγω απεκεφαλισα τις δε εστιν ουτος περι ου εγω ακουω τοιαυτα και εζητει ιδειν αυτον
10 και υποστρεψαντες οι αποστολοι διηγησαντο αυτω οσα εποιησαν και παραλαβων αυτους υπεχωρησεν κατ ιδιαν εις τοπον ερημον πολεως καλουμενης βηθσαιδα
11 οι δε οχλοι γνοντες ηκολουθησαν αυτω και δεξαμενος αυτους ελαλει αυτοις περι της βασιλειας του θεου και τους χρειαν εχοντας θεραπειας ιατο
12 η δε ημερα ηρξατο κλινειν προσελθοντες δε οι δωδεκα ειπον αυτω απολυσον τον οχλον ινα απελθοντες εις τας κυκλω κωμας και τους αγρους καταλυσωσιν και ευρωσιν επισιτισμον οτι ωδε εν ερημω τοπω εσμεν
13 ειπεν δε προς αυτους δοτε αυτοις υμεις φαγειν οι δε ειπον ουκ εισιν ημιν πλειον η πεντε αρτοι και δυο ιχθυες ει μητι πορευθεντες ημεις αγορασωμεν εις παντα τον λαον τουτον βρωματα
14 ησαν γαρ ωσει ανδρες πεντακισχιλιοι ειπεν δε προς τους μαθητας αυτου κατακλινατε αυτους κλισιας ανα πεντηκοντα
15 και εποιησαν ουτως και ανεκλιναν απαντας
16 λαβων δε τους πεντε αρτους και τους δυο ιχθυας αναβλεψας εις τον ουρανον ευλογησεν αυτους και κατεκλασεν και εδιδου τοις μαθηταις παρατιθεναι τω οχλω
17 και εφαγον και εχορτασθησαν παντες και ηρθη το περισσευσαν αυτοις κλασματων κοφινοι δωδεκα
18 και εγενετο εν τω ειναι αυτον προσευχομενον καταμονας συνησαν αυτω οι μαθηται και επηρωτησεν αυτους λεγων τινα με λεγουσιν οι οχλοι ειναι
19 οι δε αποκριθεντες ειπον ιωαννην τον βαπτιστην αλλοι δε ηλιαν αλλοι δε οτι προφητης τις των αρχαιων ανεστη
20 ειπεν δε αυτοις υμεις δε τινα με λεγετε ειναι αποκριθεις δε ο πετρος ειπεν τον χριστον του θεου
21 ο δε επιτιμησας αυτοις παρηγγειλεν μηδενι ειπειν τουτο
22 ειπων οτι δει τον υιον του ανθρωπου πολλα παθειν και αποδοκιμασθηναι απο των πρεσβυτερων και αρχιερεων και γραμματεων και αποκτανθηναι και τη τριτη ημερα εγερθηναι
23 ελεγεν δε προς παντας ει τις θελει οπισω μου ελθειν απαρνησασθω εαυτον και αρατω τον σταυρον αυτου καθ ημεραν και ακολουθειτω μοι
24 ος γαρ αν θελη την ψυχην αυτου σωσαι απολεσει αυτην ος δ αν απολεση την ψυχην αυτου ενεκεν εμου ουτος σωσει αυτην
25 τι γαρ ωφελειται ανθρωπος κερδησας τον κοσμον ολον εαυτον δε απολεσας η ζημιωθεις
26 ος γαρ αν επαισχυνθη με και τους εμους λογους τουτον ο υιος του ανθρωπου επαισχυνθησεται οταν ελθη εν τη δοξη αυτου και του πατρος και των αγιων αγγελων
27 λεγω δε υμιν αληθως εισιν τινες των ωδε εστηκοτων οι ου μη γευσονται θανατου εως αν ιδωσιν την βασιλειαν του θεου
28 εγενετο δε μετα τους λογους τουτους ωσει ημεραι οκτω και παραλαβων τον πετρον και ιωαννην και ιακωβον ανεβη εις το ορος προσευξασθαι
29 και εγενετο εν τω προσευχεσθαι αυτον το ειδος του προσωπου αυτου ετερον και ο ιματισμος αυτου λευκος εξαστραπτων
30 και ιδου ανδρες δυο συνελαλουν αυτω οιτινες ησαν μωσης και ηλιας
31 οι οφθεντες εν δοξη ελεγον την εξοδον αυτου ην εμελλεν πληρουν εν ιερουσαλημ
32 ο δε πετρος και οι συν αυτω ησαν βεβαρημενοι υπνω διαγρηγορησαντες δε ειδον την δοξαν αυτου και τους δυο ανδρας τους συνεστωτας αυτω
33 και εγενετο εν τω διαχωριζεσθαι αυτους απ αυτου ειπεν ο πετρος προς τον ιησουν επιστατα καλον εστιν ημας ωδε ειναι και ποιησωμεν σκηνας τρεις μιαν σοι και μωσει μιαν και μιαν ηλια μη ειδως ο λεγει
34 ταυτα δε αυτου λεγοντος εγενετο νεφελη και επεσκιασεν αυτους εφοβηθησαν δε εν τω εκεινους εισελθειν εις την νεφελην
35 και φωνη εγενετο εκ της νεφελης λεγουσα ουτος εστιν ο υιος μου ο αγαπητος αυτου ακουετε
36 και εν τω γενεσθαι την φωνην ευρεθη ο ιησους μονος και αυτοι εσιγησαν και ουδενι απηγγειλαν εν εκειναις ταις ημεραις ουδεν ων εωρακασιν
37 εγενετο δε εν τη εξης ημερα κατελθοντων αυτων απο του ορους συνηντησεν αυτω οχλος πολυς
38 και ιδου ανηρ απο του οχλου ανεβοησεν λεγων διδασκαλε δεομαι σου επιβλεψον επι τον υιον μου οτι μονογενης εστιν μοι
39 και ιδου πνευμα λαμβανει αυτον και εξαιφνης κραζει και σπαρασσει αυτον μετα αφρου και μογις αποχωρει απ αυτου συντριβον αυτον
40 και εδεηθην των μαθητων σου ινα εκβαλλωσιν αυτο και ουκ ηδυνηθησαν
41 αποκριθεις δε ο ιησους ειπεν ω γενεα απιστος και διεστραμμενη εως ποτε εσομαι προς υμας και ανεξομαι υμων προσαγαγε ωδε τον υιον σου
42 ετι δε προσερχομενου αυτου ερρηξεν αυτον το δαιμονιον και συνεσπαραξεν επετιμησεν δε ο ιησους τω πνευματι τω ακαθαρτω και ιασατο τον παιδα και απεδωκεν αυτον τω πατρι αυτου
43 εξεπλησσοντο δε παντες επι τη μεγαλειοτητι του θεου παντων δε θαυμαζοντων επι πασιν οις εποιησεν ο ιησους ειπεν προς τους μαθητας αυτου
44 θεσθε υμεις εις τα ωτα υμων τους λογους τουτους ο γαρ υιος του ανθρωπου μελλει παραδιδοσθαι εις χειρας ανθρωπων
45 οι δε ηγνοουν το ρημα τουτο και ην παρακεκαλυμμενον απ αυτων ινα μη αισθωνται αυτο και εφοβουντο ερωτησαι αυτον περι του ρηματος τουτου
46 εισηλθεν δε διαλογισμος εν αυτοις το τις αν ειη μειζων αυτων
47 ο δε ιησους ιδων τον διαλογισμον της καρδιας αυτων επιλαβομενος παιδιου εστησεν αυτο παρ εαυτω
48 και ειπεν αυτοις ος εαν δεξηται τουτο το παιδιον επι τω ονοματι μου εμε δεχεται και ος εαν εμε δεξηται δεχεται τον αποστειλαντα με ο γαρ μικροτερος εν πασιν υμιν υπαρχων ουτος εσται μεγας
49 αποκριθεις δε ο ιωαννης ειπεν επιστατα ειδομεν τινα επι τω ονοματι σου εκβαλλοντα τα δαιμονια και εκωλυσαμεν αυτον οτι ουκ ακολουθει μεθ ημων
50 και ειπεν προς αυτον ο ιησους μη κωλυετε ος γαρ ουκ εστιν καθ ημων υπερ ημων εστιν
51 εγενετο δε εν τω συμπληρουσθαι τας ημερας της αναληψεως αυτου και αυτος το προσωπον αυτου εστηριξεν του πορευεσθαι εις ιερουσαλημ
52 και απεστειλεν αγγελους προ προσωπου αυτου και πορευθεντες εισηλθον εις κωμην σαμαρειτων ωστε ετοιμασαι αυτω
53 και ουκ εδεξαντο αυτον οτι το προσωπον αυτου ην πορευομενον εις ιερουσαλημ
54 ιδοντες δε οι μαθηται αυτου ιακωβος και ιωαννης ειπον κυριε θελεις ειπωμεν πυρ καταβηναι απο του ουρανου και αναλωσαι αυτους ως και ηλιας εποιησεν
55 στραφεις δε επετιμησεν αυτοις και ειπεν ουκ οιδατε οιου πνευματος εστε υμεις
56 ο γαρ υιος του ανθρωπου ουκ ηλθεν ψυχας ανθρωπων απολεσαι αλλα σωσαι και επορευθησαν εις ετεραν κωμην
57 εγενετο δε πορευομενων αυτων εν τη οδω ειπεν τις προς αυτον ακολουθησω σοι οπου αν απερχη κυριε
58 και ειπεν αυτω ο ιησους αι αλωπεκες φωλεους εχουσιν και τα πετεινα του ουρανου κατασκηνωσεις ο δε υιος του ανθρωπου ουκ εχει που την κεφαλην κλινη
59 ειπεν δε προς ετερον ακολουθει μοι ο δε ειπεν κυριε επιτρεψον μοι απελθοντι πρωτον θαψαι τον πατερα μου
60 ειπεν δε αυτω ο ιησους αφες τους νεκρους θαψαι τους εαυτων νεκρους συ δε απελθων διαγγελλε την βασιλειαν του θεου
61 ειπεν δε και ετερος ακολουθησω σοι κυριε πρωτον δε επιτρεψον μοι αποταξασθαι τοις εις τον οικον μου
62 ειπεν δε προς αυτον ο ιησους ουδεις επιβαλων την χειρα αυτου επ αροτρον και βλεπων εις τα οπισω ευθετος εστιν εις την βασιλειαν του θεου

1599 Geneva Bible
9 1 The Apostles are sent to preach. 7 and 19 The common people’s opinion of Christ. 12 Of the five loaves and two fishes. 20 The Apostle’s confession. 24 To lose the life. 35 We must hear Christ. 39 The possessed of a spirit. 46 Strife among the Apostles for the Primacy. 49 One casting out devils in Christ’s Name. 52 The Samaritans will not receive Christ. 55 Revenge forbidden. 57, 59, 61 Of three that would follow Christ, but on divers conditions.
1 Then (A)[a]called he his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to heal diseases.
2 (B)And he sent them forth to preach the kingdom of God, and to cure the sick.
3 And he said to them, (C)Take nothing to your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, nor silver, neither have two coats apiece.
4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there [b]abide, and thence depart.
5 And how many soever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, (D)shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 And they went out, and went through every town preaching the Gospel, and healing everywhere.
7 ¶ (E)[c]Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he [d]doubted, because that it was said of some, that John was risen again from the dead:
8 And of some, that Elijah had appeared: and of some, that one of the old Prophets was risen again.
9 Then Herod said, John have I beheaded: who then is this of whom I hear such things? and he desired to see him.
10 ¶ (F)[e]And when the Apostles returned, they told him what great things they had done. (G)Then he took them to him, and went aside into a [f]solitary place, near to the city called Bethsaida.
11 But when the people knew it, they followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need to be healed.
12 (H)And when the day began to wear away, the twelve came, and said unto him, Send the people away, that they may go into the towns and villages round about, and lodge, and get meat: for we are here in a desert place.
13 But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes, [g]except we should go and buy meat for all this people.
14 For they were about five thousand men. Then he said to his disciples, Cause them to sit down by fifties in a company.
15 And they did so, and caused all to sit down.
16 Then he took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looked up to heaven, and [h]blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples, to set before the people.
17 So they did all eat, and were satisfied: and there was taken up of that remained to them, twelve baskets full of broken meat.
18 ¶ (I)[i]And it came to pass, as he was [j]alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?
19 They answered, and said, John Baptist: and others say, Elijah: and some say, that one of the old Prophets is risen again.
20 And he said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answered, and said: That Christ of God.
21 And he warned and commanded them, that they should tell that to no man,
22 [k]Saying, (J)The Son of man must suffer many things, and be reproved of the Elders, and of the high Priests and Scribes, and be slain, and the third day rise again.
23 ¶ (K)And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross [l]daily, and follow me.
24 (L)For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 (M)For what advantageth it a man, if he win the whole world, and destroy himself, or lose himself?
26 (N)For whosoever shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his glory, and in the glory of the Father, and of the holy Angels.
27 (O)And I tell you of a surety, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God.
28 (P)[m]And it came to pass about an eight days after those words, that he took Peter and John, and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.
29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was changed, and his garment was white and glistered.
30 And behold, two men talked with him, which were Moses and Elijah:
31 Which appeared in glory, and told of his [n]departing, which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 But Peter and they that were with him, were heavy with sleep, and when they awoke, they saw his glory, and the two men standing with him.
33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: let us therefore make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah, and wist not what he said.
34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud and overshadowed them, and they feared when they were entering into the cloud.
35 (Q)And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is that my beloved Son, hear him.
36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone: and they kept it close, and told no man in [o]those days any of those things which they had seen.
37 ¶ [p]And it came to pass on the next day, as they came down from the mountain, much people met him.
38 (R)And behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, behold my son: for he is all that I have.
39 And lo, a spirit taketh him, and suddenly he crieth, and he teareth him, that he foameth, and hardly departeth from him, when he hath [q]bruised him.
40 Now I have besought thy disciples to cast him out, but they could not.
41 Then Jesus answered and said, O generation faithless, and crooked, how long now shall I be with you, and suffer you? bring thy son hither.
42 And while he was yet coming, the devil rent him, and tore him: and Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him to his father.
43 ¶ [r]And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God: and while they all wondered at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,
44 [s]Mark these words diligently: (S)for it shall come to pass, that the son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
45 But they understood not that word: for it was hid from them, so that they could not perceive it: and they feared to ask him of that word.
46 ¶ (T)[t]Then there arose a disputation among them, which of them should be the greatest.
47 When Jesus saw the thoughts of their hearts, he took a little child, and set him by him,
48 And said unto them, Whosoever receiveth this little child in my Name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, he shall be great.
49 ¶ (U)[u]And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy Name, and we forbad him, because he followeth thee not with us.
50 Then Jesus said unto him, Forbid ye him not: for he that is not against us, is with us.
51 ¶ [v]And it came to pass, when the days were accomplished, that he should be received up, he [w]settled himself fully to go to Jerusalem,
52 And sent messengers before him: and they went and entered into a town of the Samaritans, to prepare him lodging.
53 But they would not receive him, because his behavior was as though he would go to Jerusalem.
54 [x]And when his disciples, James and John saw it, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command, that fire come down from heaven, and consume them, even as (V)Elijah did?
55 But Jesus turned about, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not of what [y]spirit ye are.
56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. Then they went to another town.
57 ¶ [z]And it came to pass that as they went in the way, (W)a certain man said unto him, I will follow thee, Lord, whithersoever thou goest.
58 And Jesus said unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven nests, but the Son of man hath not whereon to lay his head.
59 [aa]But he said unto another, Follow me. And the same said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
60 And Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury [ab]their dead: but go thou, and preach the kingdom of God.
61 [ac]Then another said, I will follow thee, Lord: but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at mine house.
62 And Jesus said unto him, No man that putteth his hand to the plough, and looketh back, is apt to the kingdom of God.

New International Version
Jesus Sends Out the Twelve(A)(B)
9 When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons(C) and to cure diseases,(D) 2 and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God(E) and to heal the sick. 3 He told them: “Take nothing for the journey—no staff, no bag, no bread, no money, no extra shirt.(F) 4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that town. 5 If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.”(G) 6 So they set out and went from village to village, proclaiming the good news and healing people everywhere.
7 Now Herod(H) the tetrarch heard about all that was going on. And he was perplexed because some were saying that John(I) had been raised from the dead,(J) 8 others that Elijah had appeared,(K) and still others that one of the prophets of long ago had come back to life.(L) 9 But Herod said, “I beheaded John. Who, then, is this I hear such things about?” And he tried to see him.(M)
Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand(N)(O)
10 When the apostles(P) returned, they reported to Jesus what they had done. Then he took them with him and they withdrew by themselves to a town called Bethsaida,(Q) 11 but the crowds learned about it and followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God,(R) and healed those who needed healing.
12 Late in the afternoon the Twelve came to him and said, “Send the crowd away so they can go to the surrounding villages and countryside and find food and lodging, because we are in a remote place here.”
13 He replied, “You give them something to eat.”
They answered, “We have only five loaves of bread and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all this crowd.” 14 (About five thousand men were there.)
But he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” 15 The disciples did so, and everyone sat down. 16 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke them.(S) Then he gave them to the disciples to distribute to the people. 17 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
Peter Declares That Jesus Is the Messiah(T)(U)
18 Once when Jesus was praying(V) in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”
19 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist;(W) others say Elijah; and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.”(X)
20 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
Peter answered, “God’s Messiah.”(Y)
Jesus Predicts His Death
21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone.(Z) 22 And he said, “The Son of Man(AA) must suffer many things(AB) and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law,(AC) and he must be killed(AD) and on the third day(AE) be raised to life.”(AF)
23 Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.(AG) 24 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.(AH) 25 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? 26 Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them(AI) when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.(AJ)
27 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”
The Transfiguration(AK)
28 About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James(AL) with him and went up onto a mountain to pray.(AM) 29 As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. 30 Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. 31 They spoke about his departure,[a](AN) which he was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem. 32 Peter and his companions were very sleepy,(AO) but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him. 33 As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master,(AP) 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 he was saying.)
34 While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and covered them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 A voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, whom I have chosen;(AQ) listen to him.”(AR) 36 When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone. The disciples kept this to themselves and did not tell anyone at that time what they had seen.(AS)
Jesus Heals a Demon-Possessed Boy(AT)
37 The next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him. 38 A man in the crowd called out, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child. 39 A spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams; it throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It scarcely ever leaves him and is destroying him. 40 I begged your disciples to drive it out, but they could not.”
41 “You unbelieving and perverse generation,”(AU) Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you and put up with you? Bring your son here.”
42 Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the impure spirit, healed the boy and gave him back to his father. 43 And they were all amazed at the greatness of God.
Jesus Predicts His Death a Second Time
While everyone was marveling at all that Jesus did, he said to his disciples, 44 “Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men.”(AV) 45 But they did not understand what this meant. It was hidden from them, so that they did not grasp it,(AW) and they were afraid to ask him about it.
46 An argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest.(AX) 47 Jesus, knowing their thoughts,(AY) took a little child and had him stand beside him. 48 Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me.(AZ) For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.”(BA)
49 “Master,”(BB) said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of us.”
50 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said, “for whoever is not against you is for you.”(BC)
Samaritan Opposition
51 As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven,(BD) Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.(BE) 52 And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan(BF) village to get things ready for him; 53 but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem. 54 When the disciples James and John(BG) saw this, they asked, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them[b]?”(BH) 55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them. 56 Then he and his disciples went to another village.
The Cost of Following Jesus(BI)
57 As they were walking along the road,(BJ) a man said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man(BK) has no place to lay his head.”
59 He said to another man, “Follow me.”(BL)
But he replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
60 Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”(BM)
61 Still another said, “I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”(BN)
62 Jesus replied, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”
