'And1he said2to them,3“Truly,4I say5to you,6there are8some9standing12here10who13will16not1415taste16death17until18they see20the21kingdom22of God24afterit has come25with26power.”27 And1after2six4days3Jesus7took with him5Peter9and10James12and13John,15and16led17them18up17a high21mountain20by themselves.2223And25he was transfigured26before27them,28 and1his4clothes3became5radiant,6intensely8white,7as9no14[one]10on11earth13could15bleach17them. And1thereappeared2to them3Elijah4with5Moses,6and7they were8talking with9Jesus.11 And1Peter4said5to Jesus,7“Rabbi,8it is10good9thatwe11are13here.12Let us make15three16tents,17one19for you18and20one22for Moses21and23one25for Elijah.”24 For2he did3not1know3what4to say,5for7they were8terrified.6 And1a cloud3overshadowed4them,5and6a voice8came7out of9the10cloud,11“This12is13my16beloved18Son;15listen19to him.”20 And1suddenly,2looking around,3they6no longer4saw6anyone5with11them12but7Jesus9only.10 And1as2they3were coming down2the5mountain,6he charged7them8to tell913no one10what11they had seen,12until141516the17Son18of Man20had risen23from21the dead.22 So1they kept4the2matter3to5themselves,6questioning7what8this10rising13from11the dead12[might mean].9 And1they asked2him,3“Why5dothe7scribes8say6that9first13Elijah10must11come?”12 And2he1said3to them,4“Elijah5does6come7first8to restore9all things.10And11how12is it written13of14the15Son16of Man18that19he should suffer21many things20and22be treated with contempt?23 But1I tell2you3that4Elijah6has come,7and8they did9to him10whatever11they pleased,12as13it is written14of15him.”16 And1when they came2to3the4disciples,5they saw6a great8crowd7around9them,10and11scribes12arguing13with14them.15 And1immediately2all3the4crowd,5when they saw6him,7were greatly amazed8and9ran up to10him andgreeted11him.12 And1he asked2them,3“What4are you arguing about5with6them?”7 And1someone4from5the6crowd7answered2him,3“Teacher,8I brought9my12son11to13you,14forhe has15a spirit16that makes himmute.17 And1whenever23it seizes5him,4it throws6him7down,6and8he foams9and10grinds11his22teeth13and14becomes rigid.15So16I asked17your20disciples19to cast2123it22out,23and24they were26not25able.”26 And2he1answered3them,4“O6faithless8generation,7how long910am I to be13with11you?12How long1415am I to bear with16you?17Bring18him19to20me.”21 And1they brought2[the boy]3to4him.5And6when7the9spirit10saw7him,8immediately11it convulsed12[the boy],13and14he fell15on16the17ground18androlled about,19foaming at the mouth.20 And1[Jesus] asked2his5father,4“How6long7has8this10been8happening11to him?”12And14he13said,15“From16childhood.17 And1it has7often2cast7him6into4fire5and8into9water,10to destroy1112him.13But14if15you can do17anything,16have compassion20on21us22andhelp18us.”19 And2Jesus3said4to him,5“‘If7you can’!8All things9arepossible10for one11who believes.”12 Immediately1the3father4of the5child6cried out2andsaid,7“I believe;8help9my10unbelief!”12 And2when1Jesus4saw1that5a crowd7came running together,6he rebuked8the9unclean12spirit,10saying13to it,14“Youmute16and17deaf18spirit,19I20command21you,22come out23of24him25and26never27enter28him30again.”27 And1aftercrying out2and3convulsing5himterribly,4it came out,6and7[the boy] was8like9a corpse,10so that11most13of themsaid,14“He is dead.”16 But2Jesus3took4him7bythe5hand6andlifted8him9up,8and10he arose.11 And1when2he3had entered2the house,5his8disciples7asked11him12privately,910“Why13could16we14not15cast17it18out?”17 And1he said2to them,3“This4kind6cannot89be driven out10by7anything8but1112prayer.”14 They went on2from there and1passed3through4Galilee.6And7he did9not8want9anyone11to know,1012 for2he was teaching1his5disciples,4saying7to them,8“The10Son11of Man13is going to be delivered14into15the hands16of men,17and18they will kill19him.20And21when he is killed,22after23three24days25he will rise.”26 But2they1did not understand3the4saying,5and6were afraid7to ask9him.8 And1they came2to3Capernaum.4And5when he was9in6the7house8he asked10them,11“What12were you discussing16on13the14way?”15 But2they1kept silent,3for6on8the9way10they had argued7with4one another5aboutwho11was thegreatest.12 And1he sat down2andcalled3the4twelve.5And6he said7to them,8“If9anyone10would11be13first,12he must be14last16of all15and17servant19of all.”18 And1he took2a child3andput4him5in6the midst7of them,8and9taking10him11in his arms,10he said12to them,13 “Whoever12receives7one3such5child6in8my11name10receives13me,12and14whoever1516receives18me,17receives21not19me20but22him23who sent24me.”25 John4said1to him,2“Teacher,5we saw6someone7casting out12demons13in8your11name,10and14we tried to stop15him,16because17he was19not18following19us.”20 But2Jesus3said,4“Donot5stop6him,7for9no one8who11does12a mighty work13in14my17name16will be able19soon afterward20to speak evil of21me.22 For2the one who1is4not3against5us6is9for7us.8 For2truly,13I say14to you,15whoever13gives4you5a cup6of
