Matthew 17
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.”

Mateo 17
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
17 At pagkaraan ng anim na araw, ay isinama ni Jesus si Pedro, at si Santiago, at si Juan na kapatid niya, at sila'y dinalang bukod sa isang mataas na bundok:
2 At nagbagong-anyo siya sa harap nila; at nagliwanag ang kaniyang mukha na katulad ng araw, at pumuting tulad sa ilaw ang kaniyang mga damit.
3 At narito, napakita sa kanila si Moises at si Elias na nakikipagusap sa kaniya.
4 At sumagot si Pedro, at sinabi kay Jesus, Panginoon, mabuti sa atin ang tayo'y dumito: kung ibig mo, ay gagawa ako rito ng tatlong tabernakulo; isa ang sa iyo, at isa ang kay Moises, at isa ang kay Elias.
5 Samantalang nagsasalita pa siya, narito, ang isang maningning na alapaap ay lumilim sa kanila: at narito, ang isang tinig na mula sa alapaap, na nagsasabi, Ito ang sinisinta kong Anak, na siya kong kinalulugdan; siya ang inyong pakinggan.
6 At nang marinig ito ng mga alagad, ay nangasubasub sila, at lubhang nangatakot.
7 At lumapit si Jesus at sila'y tinapik, at sinabi, Mangagbangon kayo, at huwag kayong mangatakot.
8 At sa paglingap ng kanilang mga mata, ay wala silang nakitang sinoman, kundi si Jesus lamang.
9 At habang sila'y nagsisibaba mula sa bundok, ay iniutos sa kanila ni Jesus, na nagsasabi, Huwag ninyong sabihin kanino mang tao ang pangitain, hanggang sa ang Anak ng tao ay ibangon sa mga patay.
10 At tinanong siya ng kaniyang mga alagad, na nangagsasabi, Bakit nga sinasabi ng mga eskriba na kinakailangang pumarito muna si Elias?
11 At sumagot siya, at sinabi, Katotohanang si Elias ay paririto, at isasauli ang lahat ng mga bagay:
12 Datapuwa't sinasabi ko sa inyo, na naparito na si Elias, at hindi nila siya nakilala, kundi ginawa nila sa kaniya ang anomang kanilang inibig. Gayon din naman ang Anak ng tao ay magbabata sa kanila.
13 Nang magkagayo'y napagunawa ng mga alagad na si Juan Bautista ang sa kanila'y sinasabi niya.
14 At pagdating nila sa karamihan, ay lumapit sa kaniya ang isang lalake, na sa kaniya'y lumuhod, at nagsasabi,
15 Panginoon, mahabag ka sa aking anak na lalake: sapagka't siya'y himatayin, at lubhang naghihirap; sapagka't madalas na siya'y nagsusugba sa apoy, at madalas sa tubig.
16 At siya'y dinala ko sa iyong mga alagad, at hindi nila siya mapagaling.
17 At sumagot si Jesus at sinabi, Oh lahing walang pananampalataya at taksil, hanggang kailan titiisin ko kayo? dalhin ninyo siya rito sa akin.
18 At pinagwikaan siya ni Jesus; at ang demonio ay lumabas sa kaniya: at ang bata'y gumaling mula nang oras ding yaon.
19 Nang magkagayo'y nagsilapit na bukod ang mga alagad kay Jesus, at nangagsabi, Bakit baga hindi namin napalabas yaon?
20 At sinabi niya sa kanila, Dahil sa kakauntian ng inyong pananampalataya: sapagka't katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Kung magkaroon kayo ng pananampalataya na kasinglaki ng butil ng binhi ng mostasa, ay masasabi ninyo sa bundok na ito, Lumipat ka mula rito hanggang doon; at ito'y lilipat; at sa inyo'y hindi may pangyayari.
21 Datapuwa't ang ganito'y hindi lumalabas kundi sa pamamagitan ng panalangin at ayuno.
22 At samantalang sila'y nangakahimpil sa Galilea, ay sinabi sa kanila ni Jesus, Ang Anak ng tao ay ibibigay sa mga kamay ng mga tao;
23 At siya'y papatayin nila, at sa ikatlong araw ay siya'y muling ibabangon. At sila'y lubhang nangamanglaw,
24 At pagdating nila sa Capernaum, ay nangagsilapit kay Pedro ang mga maniningil ng kalahating siklo, at nangagsabi, Hindi baga pinagbabayaran ng inyong guro ang kalahating siklo?
25 Sinabi niya, Oo. At nang pumasok siya sa bahay, ay pinangunahan siya ni Jesus, na nagsasabi, Anong akala mo, Simon? ang mga hari sa lupa, kanino baga sila nanganiningil ng kabayaran ng buwis? sa kanilang mga anak baga o sa nangaiiba?
26 At nang sabihin niya, Sa nangaiiba, ay sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Kung gayo'y hindi nangagbabayad ang mga anak.
27 Datapuwa't, baka katisuran tayo nila, ay pumaroon ka sa dagat, at ihulog mo ang kawil, at kunin mo ang unang isdang lumitaw; at pagka naibuka mo na ang kaniyang bibig, ay masusumpungan mo ang isang siklo: kunin mo, at ibigay mo sa kanila sa ganang akin at sa iyo.
