Matteusevangeliet 17
Svenska Folkbibeln 2015
17 (A) Sex dagar därefter tog Jesus med sig Petrus, Jakob och hans bror Johannes och förde dem upp på ett högt berg[a] där de var ensamma. 2 (B) Då förvandlades han inför dem: hans ansikte lyste som solen, och hans kläder blev vita som ljuset. 3 Och Mose och Elia visade sig för dem och samtalade med honom.
4 Petrus sade till Jesus: "Herre, det är gott för oss att vara här[b]. Om du vill ska jag göra tre hyddor här: en åt dig, en åt Mose och en åt Elia." 5 Medan han ännu talade kom ett lysande moln och sänkte sig över dem. Och en röst ur molnet sade: "Han är min älskade Son. I honom har jag min glädje. Lyssna till honom!"[c] 6 När lärjungarna hörde det, föll de skräckslagna ner på sina ansikten. 7 Men Jesus gick fram och rörde vid dem och sade: "Res er upp och var inte rädda!" 8 Och när de lyfte blicken, såg de ingen annan än Jesus.
9 (C) På väg ner från berget befallde Jesus dem: "Berätta inte för någon vad ni sett förrän Människosonen har uppstått från de döda." 10 Lärjungarna frågade honom: "Varför säger då de skriftlärda att Elia först måste komma[d]?" 11 Han svarade: "Elia ska komma och återupprätta allt. 12 (D) Men jag säger er: Elia har redan kommit, och de kände inte igen honom utan gjorde med honom som de ville. På samma sätt ska också Människosonen lida genom dem." 13 Då förstod lärjungarna att han talade till dem om Johannes Döparen.
Jesus botar en månadssjuk pojke
14 (E) När de sedan kom tillbaka till folket, gick en man fram till Jesus och föll på knä för honom 15 och sade: "Herre, förbarma dig över min son! Han är månadssjuk[e] och svårt plågad. Ofta faller han i elden och ofta i vattnet. 16 Jag tog honom till dina lärjungar, men de kunde inte bota honom."
17 (F) Jesus svarade: "Detta fördärvade släkte som inte vill tro! Hur länge ska jag vara hos er? Hur länge ska jag stå ut med er? Hämta hit honom till mig." 18 Och Jesus talade strängt till den onda anden, och den[f] for ut ur honom. Från den stunden var pojken botad.
19 (G) När lärjungarna hade blivit ensamma med Jesus, kom de fram och frågade: "Varför kunde inte vi driva ut den?" 20 (H) Han svarade: "Därför att ni har så lite tro. Jag säger er sanningen: Om ni har tro, bara som ett senapskorn, ska ni säga till det här berget: Flytta dig dit bort, och det kommer att flytta sig. Ingenting kommer att vara omöjligt för er.[g]"
Jesus talar igen om sitt lidande
22 (I) När de var samlade i Galileen sade Jesus till dem: "Människosonen ska utlämnas i människors händer, 23 och de ska döda honom. Men på tredje dagen ska han uppstå." Då blev de djupt bedrövade.
Tempelskatten
24 (J) När de sedan var framme i Kapernaum, kom de som samlade in tempelskatten[h] fram till Petrus och frågade: "Betalar inte er mästare tempelskatt?" 25 (K) "Jodå", svarade han.
När Petrus kom hem var det Jesus som frågade först: "Vad tror du, Simon? Från vilka tar jordens kungar upp tull och skatt? Från sina söner eller från andra?" 26 Han svarade: "Från andra." Då sade Jesus till honom: "Alltså är sönerna fria. 27 Men vi ska inte stöta oss med dem, så gå ner till sjön och kasta ut en krok. Ta sedan den första fisken du får upp och öppna munnen på den. Då hittar du ett silvermynt[i]. Ta det och ge till dem för mig och dig."

New King James Version
Jesus Transfigured on the Mount(A)
17 Now (B)after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; 2 and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. 3 And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. 4 Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, [a]let us make here three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
5 (C)While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, (D)“This is My beloved Son, (E)in whom I am well pleased. (F)Hear Him!” 6 (G)And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid. 7 But Jesus came and (H)touched them and said, “Arise, and do not be afraid.” 8 When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.
9 Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead.”
10 And His disciples asked Him, saying, (I)“Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
11 Jesus answered and said to them, “Indeed, Elijah is coming [b]first and will (J)restore all things. 12 (K)But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they (L)did not know him but did to him whatever they wished. Likewise (M)the Son of Man is also about to suffer at their hands.” 13 (N)Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptist.
A Boy Is Healed(O)
14 (P)And when they had come to the multitude, a man came to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying, 15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is [c]an epileptic and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. 16 So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him.”
17 Then Jesus answered and said, “O [d]faithless and (Q)perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me.” 18 And Jesus (R)rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your [e]unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, (S)if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. 21 [f]However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”
Jesus Again Predicts His Death and Resurrection(T)
22 (U)Now while they were [g]staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men, 23 and they will kill Him, and the third day He will be raised up.” And they were exceedingly (V)sorrowful.
Peter and His Master Pay Their Taxes
24 (W)When they had come to [h]Capernaum, those who received the [i]temple tax came to Peter and said, “Does your Teacher not pay the temple tax?”
25 He said, “Yes.”
And when he had come into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take customs or taxes, from their sons or from (X)strangers?”
26 Peter said to Him, “From strangers.”
Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free. 27 Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a [j]piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you.”

The Transfiguration
17 (A)Six days later, Jesus *took with Him (B)Peter and [a]James, and his brother John, and *led them up on a high mountain by themselves. 2 And He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light. 3 And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. 4 Peter responded and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If You want, (C)I will make three [b]tabernacles here: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” 5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, (D)a voice from the cloud said, “(E)This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to Him!” 6 When the disciples heard this, they fell [c]face down to the ground and were terrified. 7 And Jesus came to them and touched them and said, “Get up, and (F)do not be afraid.” 8 And raising their eyes, they saw no one except Jesus Himself alone.
9 (G)When they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “(H)Tell the vision to no one until (I)the Son of Man has (J)risen from the dead.” 10 And His disciples asked Him, “Why then do the scribes say that (K)Elijah must come first?” 11 And He answered and said, “Elijah is coming and will restore all things; 12 but I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did [d]to him whatever they wanted. So also (L)the Son of Man is going to suffer [e]at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that He had spoken to them about John the Baptist.
The Demon-possessed Boy
14 (M)When they came to the crowd, a man came up to [f]Jesus, falling on his knees before Him and saying, 15 “[g]Lord, have mercy on my son, because he (N)has seizures and suffers terribly; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. 16 And I brought him to Your disciples, and they could not cure him.” 17 And Jesus answered and said, “You unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.” 18 And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was healed [h]at once.
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?” 20 And He *said to them, “Because of your meager faith; for truly I say to you, (O)if you have faith [i]the size of (P)a mustard seed, you will say to (Q)this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and (R)nothing will be impossible for you.[j]”
22 (S)And while they were gathering together in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be [k]handed over to men; 23 and (T)they will kill Him, and He will be raised on the third day.” And they were deeply grieved.
The Temple Tax
24 Now when they came to Capernaum, those who collected (U)the [l]two-drachma tax came to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay (V)the [m]two-drachma tax?” 25 He *said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect (W)customs or [n](X)poll-tax, from their sons or from strangers?” 26 When Peter said, “From strangers,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are [o]exempt. 27 However, so that we do not (Y)offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will find a [p]stater. Take that and give it to them for you and Me.”
