The Transfiguration

1

 aSixg1803 daysg2250 laterg3326 Jesusg2424 *tookg3880 with Him  bPeterg4074 and  1Jamesg2385 and Johng2491 his brotherg80, and *ledg399 them up on a highg5308 mountaing3735 by themselvesg2398.

2

And He was transfiguredg3339 beforeg1715 them; and His faceg4383 shoneg2989 likeg5613 the sung2246, and His garmentsg2440 becameg1096 as whiteg3022 as lightg5457.

3

And beholdg2400, Mosesg3475 and Elijahg2243 appearedg3708 to them, talkingg4814 with Him.

4

Peterg4074 saidg3004 to Jesusg2424, "Lordg2962, it is goodg2570 for us to be hereg5602; ifg1487 You wishg2309,  aI will makeg4160 threeg5140  1tabernaclesg4633 hereg5602, oneg1520 for You, and oneg1520 for Mosesg3475, and oneg1520 for Elijahg2243."

5

While he was stillg2089 speakingg2980, a brightg5460 cloudg3507 overshadowedg1982 them, and beholdg2400,  aa voiceg5456 out of the cloudg3507 saidg3004, " bThisg3778 is My belovedg27 Song5207, with whomg3739 I amg2106 well-pleasedg2106; listeng191 to Him!"

6

When the disciplesg3101 heardg191 this, they fellg4098  1faceg4383 down to the ground and were terrifiedg5399.

7

And Jesusg2424 cameg4334 to them and touchedg681 them and saidg3004, "Getg1452 up, and  ado not be afraidg5399."

8

And liftingg1869 up their eyesg3788, they sawg3708 nog3762 oneg3762 exceptg1508 Jesusg2424 Himselfg846 aloneg3441.

9

 aAs they were comingg2597 downg2597 from the mountaing3735, Jesusg2424 commandedg1781 them, sayingg3004, bTellg3004 the visiong3705 to nog3367 oneg3367 untilg2193  cthe Song5207 of Mang444 has  driseng1453 from the deadg3498."

10

And His disciplesg3101 askedg1905 Him, "Whyg5101 theng3767 do the scribesg1122 sayg3004 that  aElijahg2243 mustg1163 comeg2064 firstg4413?"

11

And He answeredg611 and saidg3004, "Elijahg2243 is comingg2064 and will restoreg600 allg3956 thingsg3956;

12

but I sayg3004 to you that Elijahg2243 alreadyg2235 cameg2064, and they did not recognizeg1921 him, but didg4160  1to him whateverg3745 they wishedg2309. Sog3779 alsog2532  athe Song5207 of Mang444 is goingg3195 to sufferg3958  2at their handsg5259."

13

Theng5119 the disciplesg3101 understoodg4920 that He had spokeng3004 to them aboutg4012 Johng2491 the Baptistg910.

The Demoniac

14

 aWhen they cameg2064 to the crowdg3793, a mang444 cameg4334 up to Jesus, fallingg1120 on his kneesg1120 beforeg1120 Him and sayingg3004,

15

1Lordg2962, haveg1653 mercyg1653 on my song5207, for he is a  2 alunaticg4583 and is veryg2560 illg2192g2560; for he ofteng4178 fallsg4098 into the fireg4442 and ofteng4178 into the waterg5204.

16

"I broughtg4374 him to Your disciplesg3101, and they couldg1410 not cureg2323 him."

17

And Jesusg2424 answeredg611 and saidg3004, "You unbelievingg571 and pervertedg1294 generationg1074, howg2193 longg2193g4219 shall I be with you? Howg2193 longg2193g4219 shall I putg430 up with you? Bringg5342 him hereg5602 to Me."

18

And Jesusg2424 rebukedg2008 him, and the demong1140 cameg1831 out of him, and the boyg3816 was curedg2323  1at onceg1565g5610.

19

Theng5119 the disciplesg3101 cameg4334 to Jesusg2424 privatelyg2596g2398 and saidg3004, "Whyg1223g5101 couldg1410 we not driveg1544b it out?"

20

And He *saidg3004 to them, "Becauseg1223 of the littlenessg3640a of your faithg3640a; for trulyg281 I sayg3004 to you,  aifg1437 you haveg2192 faithg4102  1the sizeg5613 of  ba mustardg4615 seedg2848, you will sayg3004 to  cthisg3778 mountaing3735, `Moveg3327 from hereg1759b to thereg1563,' and it will moveg3327; and  dnothingg3762 will be impossibleg101 to you.

21

[1 aBut thisg3778 kindg1085 does not gog1607 out exceptg1508 by prayerg4335 and fastingg3521."]

22

 aAnd while they were gatheringg4962 togetherg4962 in Galileeg1056, Jesusg2424 saidg3004 to them, "The Song5207 of Mang444 is goingg3195 to be  1deliveredg3860 into the handsg5495 of meng444;

23

and  athey will killg615 Him, and He will be raisedg1453 on the thirdg5154 dayg2250." And they were deeplyg4970 grievedg3076.

The Tribute Money

24

When they cameg4334 to Capernaumg2746b, thoseg3588 who collectedg2983  athe  1two-drachmag1323 tax cameg4334 to Peterg4074 and saidg3004, "Does your teacherg1320 not payg5055  athe  1two-drachmag1323 tax?"

25

He *saidg3004, "Yesg3483a." And when he cameg2064 into the houseg3614, Jesusg2424 spokeg4399 to him firstg4399, sayingg3004, "Whatg5101 do you thinkg1380, Simong4613? From whomg5101 do the kingsg935 of the earthg1093 collectg2983  acustomsg5056 org2228  bpoll-taxg2778b, from their sonsg5207 org2228 from strangersg245?"

26

When Peter saidg5346, "From strangersg245," Jesusg2424 saidg5346 to him, "Theng686 the sonsg5207 are  1exemptg1658.

27

"Howeverg1161, sog2443g3361 that we do not  1 aoffendg4624 them, gog4198 to the seag2281 and throwg906 in a hookg44, and takeg142 the firstg4413 fishg2486 that comesg305 up; and when you openg455 its mouthg4750, you will findg2147  2a shekelg4715. Takeg2983 that and giveg1325 it to them for you and Me."
