1 A nd he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.

And he said to them, Verily I say unto you, There are some of those standing here that shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God come in power.

2 A nd after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.

And after six days Jesus takes with Peter and James and John, and takes them up on a high mountain by themselves apart. And he was transfigured before them:

3 A nd his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.

and his garments became shining, exceeding white, such as fuller on earth could not whiten.

4 A nd there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.

And there appeared to them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5 A nd Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

And Peter answering says to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good that we should be here; and let us make three tabernacles, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elias one.

6 F or he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.

For he knew not what he should say, for they were filled with fear.

7 A nd there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

8 A nd suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.

And suddenly having looked around, they no longer saw any one, but Jesus alone with themselves.

9 A nd as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.

And as they descended from the mountain, he charged them that they should relate to no one what they had seen, unless when the Son of man should be risen from among dead.

10 A nd they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.

And they kept that saying, questioning among themselves, what rising from among dead was.

11 A nd they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?

And they asked him saying, Why do the scribes say that Elias must first have come?

12 A nd he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

And he answering said to them, Elias indeed, having first come, restores all things; and how is it written of the Son of man that he must suffer much, and be set at nought:

13 B ut I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

but I say unto you that Elias also is come, and they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him.

14 A nd when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.

And when he came to the disciples he saw a great crowd around them, and scribes disputing against them.

15 A nd straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

And immediately all the crowd seeing him were amazed, and running to, saluted him.

16 A nd he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

And he asked them, What do ye question with them about?

17 A nd one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;

And one out of the crowd answered him, Teacher, I brought to thee my son, who has a dumb spirit;

18 A nd wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.

and wheresoever it seizes him it tears him, and he foams and gnashes his teeth, and he is withering away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they might cast him out, and they could not.

19 H e answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

But he answering them says, O unbelieving generation! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me.

20 A nd they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

And they brought him to him. And seeing him the spirit immediately tore him; and falling upon the earth he rolled foaming.

21 A nd he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

And he asked his father, How long a time is it that it has been like this with him? And he said, From childhood;

22 A nd ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

and often it has cast him both into fire and into waters that it might destroy him: but if thou couldst anything, be moved with pity on us, and help us.

23 J esus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

And Jesus said to him, The 'if thou couldst' is believe: all things are possible to him that believes.

24 A nd straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

And immediately the father of the young child crying out said, I believe, help mine unbelief.

25 W hen Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

But Jesus, seeing that crowd was running up together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

26 A nd the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

And having cried out and torn much, he came out; and he became as if dead, so that the most said, He is dead.

27 B ut Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

But Jesus, having taken hold of him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose.

28 A nd when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?

And when he was entered into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Wherefore could not we cast him out?

29 A nd he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

And he said to them, This kind can go out by nothing but by prayer and fasting.

30 A nd they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.

And going forth from thence they went through Galilee; and he would not that any one knew it;

31 F or he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.

for he taught his disciples and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into men's hands, and they shall kill him; and having been killed, after three days he shall rise again.

32 B ut they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

But they understood not the saying, and feared to ask him.

33 A nd he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?

And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he asked them, Of what were ye reasoning by the way?

34 B ut they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.

And they remained silent, for by the way they had been reasoning with one another who greatest.

35 A nd he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

And sitting down he called the twelve; and he says to them, If any one would be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.

36 A nd he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,

And taking a little child he set it in their midst, and having taken it in his arms he said to them,

37 W hosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name, receives me; and whosoever shall receive me, does not receive me, but him who sent me.

38 A nd John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.

And John answered him saying, Teacher, we saw some one casting out demons in thy name, who does not follow us, and we forbad him, because he does not follow us.

39 B ut Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.

But Jesus said, Forbid him not; for there is no one who shall do a miracle in my name, and be able soon to speak ill of me;

40 F or he that is not against us is on our part.

for he who is not against us is for us.

41 F or whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.

For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in name, because ye are Christ's, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.

42 A nd whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

And whosoever shall be a snare to one of the little ones who believe, it were better for him if a millstone were hung about his neck, and he cast into the sea.

43 A nd if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

And if thy hand serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having thy two hands to go away into hell, into the fire unquenchable;

44 W here their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

45 A nd if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

And if thy foot serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having thy two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire unquenchable;

46 W here their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

47 A nd if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:

And if thine eye serve as a snare to thee, cast it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire,

48 W here their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

49 F or every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.

For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.

50 S alt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.

Salt good, but if the salt is become saltless, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.
