1	AND he said unto them, I tell you of a certainty, that there are some standing here who shall not taste of death, until they see the kingdom of God come with power.	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 six days after Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, only, and carrieth them up with him into an exceeding high mountain in great privacy; and was transfigured before them.	And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them,	After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them.
3	His garments became glistering, exceeding white, like snow; such as no fuller upon earth can whiten.	and his clothes became radiant, intensely white, as no one on earth could bleach them.	His clothes became dazzling white, whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them.
4	And there appeared to him Elias with Moses: and they were conversing with Jesus.	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	Then Peter addressing him, said unto him, Master, it is desirable for us to be here: and let us erect three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, 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 knew not what he should say: for they were very much affrighted.	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 came a cloud overshadowing them: and there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.	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. Listen to him!”
8	And instantly looking round, they saw no man any longer with them, but Jesus only.	And suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them but Jesus only.	Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.
9	And as they were coming down from the mountain, he strictly charged them, that they should tell no man what they had seen, till after the Son of man should have arisen from the dead.	And as they were coming down the mountain, he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.	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 caught at that word, considering among themselves what this rising from the dead could mean.	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 him, saying, Why say the scribes, that Elias must come first?	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	Then he answering said unto them, Elias indeed cometh first, and will reform all things; and how speaks the scripture of the Son of man? That he must suffer many things, and be treated with contempt.	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 say unto you, that Elias is come, and they have done to him whatsoever they chose, as it is written 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 saw a great crowd around them, and the scribes disputing with them.	And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.	When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them.
15	And immediately all the multitude, when they beheld him, were struck with amazement, and coming to him, saluted him.	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 are ye disputing about among yourselves?	And he asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?”	“What are you arguing with them about?” he asked.
17	And one of the people addressing him, said, Master, I have brought my son to thee, who hath a dumb spirit;	And someone from the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has a spirit that makes him mute.	A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech.
18	and wherever he seizeth him, he throws him into strong convulsions: and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and pines away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they should cast him out; and they were unable.	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	Then addressing him, he said, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to 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 unto him. And seeing him, instantly the spirit threw him into convulsions; and falling to the ground, he rolled about, foaming at the mouth.	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 asked his father, For how long a time hath this been the case with him? And he replied, From his infancy.	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 often it hath cast him into the fire, and into water, to destroy him: but if thou art able, have compassion upon us, and help us.	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	Then said Jesus unto him, This is the point : if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.	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 immediately the father of the child said with tears, I believe, Lord! help my unbelief!	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	Then Jesus, seeing that the multitude were running up to him, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter into him no more.	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 screaming, and convulsing him violently, it came out: and the child lay as if dead; insomuch that many said, 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 Jesus taking him by the hand, raised him up; and he arose.	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 when he was come into the house, the disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast it 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 said to them, this kind can be driven out by nothing but prayer and fasting.	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 going from thence, they passed through Galilee: and he would not have any person know 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 said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him: and after being killed, the third day he shall rise again.	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 understood not the meaning of that declaration, and were afraid to ask him.	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 in the house, he asked them, What was the subject of your dispute among yourselves on the road?	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	But they held their peace. For they had been disputing with each other on the road, which was the greatest.	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 seated, he called the twelve, and saith to them, If any man desires to be the first, let him be last of all, and servant of all.	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 taking a little boy, he set him in the midst of them: and taking him in his arms, he said unto 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	Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth not me merely, but him 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	Then John addressed him, saying, Master, we saw a person in thy name casting out devils, who followeth us not: and we forbad him, because he did not follow us.	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	Then said Jesus, Forbid him not: for there is no man who shall perform a miracle in my name, who will be able presently after to speak evil 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 us, is for us.	For the one who is not against us is for us.	for whoever is not against us is for us.
41	For whosoever shall give you even a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to the Messiah, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.	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 whosoever shall give occasion of offence to one of these little ones who believe in me, it were desirable for him rather that a milestone were hanged about his neck, and that 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 if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it were better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having both hands to go into hell, into the fire that never will be 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 worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45	And if thy foot cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life halting, than having both feet to be cast into hell, into the fire which never can be quenched:	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 the worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47	And if thine eye cause thee to offend, 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 the fire of hell:	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 the worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.	‘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	For every one shall be salted with fire, and every victim shall be sprinkled with salt.	For everyone will be salted with fire.	Everyone will be salted with fire.
50	Salt is good: but if the salt become insipid, with what will you season it? have salt in yourselves, and live in peace with each 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.”
