And he said to them, “Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power.”	And he said to them, “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see that the kingdom of God has come with power.”
2	And after sixe dayes, Iesus taketh Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and leadeth them vp into an hye mountayne, out of the way, alone: and he was transfigured before them.

4	And there appeared vnto them Elias, with Moyses: And they talked with Iesu.	And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.	And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus.
5	And Peter aunswered, and sayth to Iesu: Maister, here is good beyng for vs, let vs make also three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moyses, and one for Elias.	And Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good that we are here. Let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.”	Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”
6	For he wist not what he saide, for they were afrayde.	For he did not know what to say, for they were terrified.	(He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.)
7	And there was a cloude that shadowed them: and a voyce came out of the cloude, saying, This is my beloued sonne, heare hym.	And a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son; listen to him.”	Then a cloud appeared and covered them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is my Son, whom I love.

9	And as they came downe from the hyll, he charged them, that they should tell no man those thynges that they had seene, tyll the sonne of man were rysen from the dead agayne.

As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10	And they kept that saying with them, and demaunded one of another, what the rysing from the dead againe, should meane?	So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what this rising from the dead might mean.	They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.
11	And they asked hym, saying: Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?	And they asked him, “Why do the scribes say that first Elijah must come?”	And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”
12	He aunswered, and sayde vnto them: Elias veryly when he commeth firste, restoreth all thynges: And the sonne of man, as it is written of hym, shall suffer many thynges, & be set at naught.	And he said to them, “Elijah does come first to restore all things. And how is it written of the Son of Man that he should suffer many things and be treated with contempt?	Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer much and be rejected?
13	But I saye vnto you, that Elias is come, & they haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they would, as it is writte of him.	But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him.”	But I tell you, Elijah has come, and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”
14	And when he came to his disciples, he sawe much people about them, and the scribes disputyng with them.

15	And strayghtway all the people, whe they behelde hym, were amased, & ran to hym, and saluted hym.	And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed and ran up to him and greeted him.	As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with wonder and ran to greet him.
16	And he asked the scribes, what dispute ye with them?	And he asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?”	“What are you arguing with them about?” he asked.

18	And whensoeuer he taketh hym, he teareth hym, & he fometh, and gnasheth with his teeth, & pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples, that they should cast hym out, and they coulde not.	And whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.”	Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but they could not.”
19	He aunswereth hym, and sayth: O faythlesse nation, howe long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? Bryng hym vnto me.	And he answered them, “O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me.”	“You unbelieving generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.”
20	And they brought him vnto him: And when he sawe hym, strayghtway the spirite tare hym: And he fell downe on the grounde, wallowyng and fomyng.	And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.	So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.
21	And he asketh his father, howe longe it is a go sence this came vnto hym? And he sayde, of a chylde.	And Jesus asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.	Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has he been like this?” “From childhood,” he answered.
22	And oft tymes it hath cast hym into the fire, and into the water, to destroye hym: But yf thou canst do any thyng, haue mercy on vs, and helpe vs.	And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”	“It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.”
23	Iesus sayde vnto hym: this thyng yf thou cans beleue, all thynges are possible to hym that beleueth.	And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”	“’If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.”
24	And strayghtwaye the father of the childe cryed with teares, saying: Lorde I beleue, helpe thou mine vnbeliefe.	Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!”	Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”
25	When Iesus sawe that the people came runnyng together, he rebuked the foule spirite, saying vnto hym: Thou dumbe and deafe spirite, I charge thee come out of hym, and enter no more into hym.	And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”	When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene, he rebuked the impure spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” he said, “I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”
26	And the spirite, when he had cryed and rent him sore, came out of hym: and he was as one that had ben dead, insomuch that many sayde, he is dead.	And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, “He is dead.”	The spirit shrieked, convulsed him violently and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He’s dead.”
27	But Iesus caught hym by the hande, and lyft hym vp: and he rose.	But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.	But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up.
28	And whe he was come into the house, his disciples asked hym secretely: Why coulde not we cast hym out?	And when he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?”	After Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
29	And he saide vnto them: This kynde can come foorth by nothing, but by prayer and fastyng.	And he said to them, “This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.”	He replied, “This kind can come out only by prayer.”
30	And they departed thence, and toke their iorney thorowe Galilee: and he would not yt any man should knowe it.	They went on from there and passed through Galilee. And he did not want anyone to know,	They left that place and passed through Galilee. Jesus did not want anyone to know where they were,
31	For he taught his disciples, and sayde vnto them: The sonne of man, shalbe deliuered into the handes of men, & they shall kyll him: and, after that he is kylled, he shall ryse agayne the thirde day.	for he was teaching his disciples, saying to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him. And when he is killed, after three days he will rise.”	because he was teaching his disciples. He said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise.”
32	But they vnderstoode not that saying, and were afrayde to aske hym.	But they did not understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.	But they did not understand what he meant and were afraid to ask him about it.
33	And he came to Capernaum: And when he was come into the house, he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among your selues by the way?	And they came to Capernaum. And when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?”	They came to Capernaum. When he was in the house, he asked them, “What were you arguing about on the road?”
34	And they helde their peace: For by the way, they had reasoned among them selues, who shoulde be the chiefest.	But they kept silent, for on the way they had argued with one another about who was the greatest.	But they kept quiet because on the way they had argued about who was the greatest.
35	And when he was set downe, he called the twelue to hym, and sayde vnto them: If any man desire to be first, the same shalbe last of al, & seruaut vnto al.	And he sat down and called the twelve. And he said to them, “If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.”	Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”
36	And he toke a young childe, & set him in the myddes of them: and when he had taken hym in his armes, he sayde vnto them.	And he took a child and put him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them,	He took a little child whom he placed among them. Taking the child in his arms, he said to them,
37	Whosoeuer receaueth any such a young chylde in my name, receaueth me: And whosoeuer receaueth me, receaueth not me, but hym that sent me.	“Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me.”	“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.”
38	Iohn aunswered him, saying: Maister, we sawe one caste out deuylles in thy name, & he foloweth not vs: and we forbad him, because he foloweth vs not.	John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he was not following us.”	“Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.”
39	But Iesus sayde, forbyd hym not: For there is no man, whiche, yf he do a miracle in my name, can lyghtly speake euyll of me.	But Jesus said, “Do not stop him, for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me.	“Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me,
40	For he that is not against vs, is on our part.	For the one who is not against us is for us.	for whoever is not against us is for us.
41	Whosoeuer shall in my name geue you a cup of colde water to drynke, because ye belong to Christe: veryly I say vnto you, he shall not lose his rewarde.	For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ will by no means lose his reward.	Truly I tell you, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to the Messiah will certainly not lose their reward.
42	And whosoeuer shall offende one of these litle ones, that beleue in me, it were better for him, if a mylstone were hanged about his necke, and he were cast into the sea.	“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea.	“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea.
43	And yf thy hande offende thee, cut it of: It is better for thee to enter into lyfe maymed, then hauyng two handes, to go into hell, into fire that neuer shalbe quenched:	And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire.	If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out.
44	Where their worme dyeth not, & the fire goeth not out.
45	And yf thy foote offende thee, cut it of: It is better for thee to go halt into lyfe, then hauyng two feete, to be cast into hell, into fire that neuer shalbe queched:	And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell.	And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.
46	Where their worme dyeth not, and the fire goeth not out.
47	And if thine eye offend thee, plucke it out: It is better for thee to go into the kyngdome of God with one eye, then hauing two eyes, to be cast into hell fire:	And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell,	And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,
48	Where their worme dyeth not, and the fire goeth not out.	‘where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’	where “’the worms that eat them do not die, and the fire is not quenched.’
49	Euery man shalbe salted with fire: and euery sacrifice shalbe seasoned with salt.	For everyone will be salted with fire.	Everyone will be salted with fire.
50	Salt is good: But if the salt be vnsauerie, with what thyng shall you season it? Haue salt in your selues, and haue peace among your selues, one with an other.	Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how will you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”	“Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with each other.”
