* And he said to them , Truly I say to you (note :){+}(:note ), There are some here of those who stand , who will in no way taste of death , until they see the kingdom of God come with power . * And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter , and James , and John , and brings them up into a high mountain apart by themselves : and he was transfigured before them ; * and his garments became glistering , exceedingly white , so as no fuller on earth can whiten them . * And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses : and they were talking with Jesus . * And Peter answers and says to Jesus , Rabbi , it is good for us to be here : and let us make three tabernacles ; one for you , and one for Moses , and one for Elijah . * For he didn 't know what to answer ; for they became exceedingly afraid . * And there came a cloud overshadowing them : and there came a voice out of the cloud , This is my beloved Son : hear (note :){+}(:note ) him . * And suddenly looking around , they saw no one anymore , except Jesus only with themselves . * And as they were coming down from the mountain , he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen , except when the Son of Man should have risen again from the dead . * And they kept the saying , questioning among themselves what the rising again from the dead should mean . * And they asked him , saying , [How is it ] that the scribes say that Elijah must first come ? * And he said to them , Elijah indeed comes first , and restores all things : and how is it written of the Son of Man , that he should suffer many things and be set at nothing ? * But I say to you (note :){+}(:note ), that Elijah has come , and they have also done to him whatever they would , even as it is written of him . * And when they came to the disciples , they saw a great multitude about them , and scribes questioning with them . * And right away all the multitude , when they saw him , were greatly amazed , and running to him greeted him . * And he asked them , What do you (note :){+}(:note ) question with them ? * And one of the multitude answered him , Teacher , I brought to you my son , who has a mute spirit ; * and wherever it takes him , it dashes him down : and he foams , and grinds his teeth , and becomes stiff : and I spoke to your disciples that they should cast it out ; and they were not able . * And he answers them and says , O faithless generation , how long shall I be with you (note :){+}(:note )? How long shall I bear with you {+}? Bring him to me . * And they brought him to him : and when he saw him , immediately the spirit tore him grievously ; and he fell on the ground , and wallowed foaming . * And he asked his father , How much time is it since this has come to him ? And he said , From a child . * And often it has cast him both into the fire and into the waters , to destroy him : but if you can do anything , have compassion on us , and help us . * And Jesus said to him , If you can ! All things are possible to him who believes . * Immediately the father of the child cried out , and said , I believe ; help my unbelief . * And when Jesus saw that a multitude came running together , he rebuked the unclean spirit , saying to him , You mute and deaf spirit , I command you , come out of him , and enter into him no more . * And having cried out , and torn him much , he came out : and [the boy ] became as one dead ; insomuch that most said , He is dead . * But Jesus took him by the hand , and raised him up ; and he arose . * And when he came into the house , his disciples asked him privately , [How is it ] that we could not cast it out ? * And he said to them , This kind can come out by nothing , except by prayer . * And they went forth from there , and passed through Galilee ; and he did not want that any man should know it . * For he taught his disciples , and said to them , The Son of Man is delivered up into the hands of men , and they will kill him ; and when he is killed , after three days he will rise again . * But they didn 't understand the saying , and were afraid to ask him . * And they came to Capernaum : and when he was in the house he asked them , What were you (note :){+}(:note ) reasoning on the way ? * But they held their peace : for they had disputed one with another on the way , who [was ] the greatest . * And he sat down , and called the twelve ; and he says to them , If any man would be first , he will be last of all , and servant of all . * And he took a little child , and set the child among them : and taking the child in his arms , he said to them , * Whoever will receive one of such little children in my name , receives me : and whoever receives me , does not receive me , but him who sent me . * John said to him , Teacher , we saw one casting out demons in your name ; and we forbade him , because he didn 't follow us . * But Jesus said , Don 't forbid him : for there is no man who will do a mighty work in my name , and be able quickly to speak evil of me . * For he who is not against us is for us . * For whoever will give you (note :){+}(:note ) a cup of water to drink , because you {+} are Christ 's , truly I say to you {+}, he will in no way lose his reward . * And whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble , it were better for him if a great millstone were put around his neck , and he were cast into the sea . * And if your hand causes you to stumble , cut it off : it is good for you to enter into life maimed , rather than having your two hands to go into hell , into the unquenchable fire . * [] * And if your foot causes you to stumble , cut it off : it is good for you to enter into life lame , rather than having your two feet to be cast into hell . * [] * And if your eye causes you to stumble , cast it out : it is good for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye , rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell ; * where their worm dies not , and the fire is not quenched . * For everyone will be salted with fire . * Salt is good : but if the salt has lost its saltness , how will you (note :){+}(:note ) season it ? Have salt in yourselves , and be at peace one with another .
