And after
six
days
Jesus
taketh
Peter
, James
, and
John
his
brother
, and
bringeth
them
up
into
an high
mountain
apart
,
And was transfigured
before
them
: and
his
face
did shine
as
the sun
, and
his
raiment
was
white
as
the light
.
And, behold
, there appeared
unto them
Moses
and
Elias
talking
with
him
.
Then answered
Peter
, and said
unto Jesus
, Lord
, it is
good
for us
to be
here
: if
thou wilt
, let us make
here
three
tabernacles
; one
for thee
, and
one
for Moses
, and
one
for Elias
.
While he yet
spake
, behold
, a bright
cloud
overshadowed
them
: and
behold
a voice
out of
the cloud
, which said
, This
is
my
beloved
Son
, in
whom
I am well pleased
; hear ye
him
.
And when the disciples
heard
it , they fell
on
their
face
, and
were sore
afraid
.
And Jesus
came
and touched
them
, and
said
, Arise
, and
be
not
afraid
.
And when they had lifted up
their
eyes
, they saw
no man
, save
Jesus
only
.
And as they
came down
from
the mountain
, Jesus
charged
them
, saying
, Tell
the vision
to no man
, until
the Son
of man
be risen again
from
the dead
.
And his
disciples
asked
him
, saying
, Why
then
say
the scribes
that
Elias
must
first
come
?
And Jesus
answered
and said
unto them
, Elias
truly
shall first
come
, and
restore
all things
.
But I say
unto you
, That
Elias
is come
already
, and
they knew
him
not
, but
have done
unto
him
whatsoever
they listed
. Likewise
shall
also
the Son
of man
suffer
of
them
.
Then the disciples
understood
that
he spake
unto them
of
John
the Baptist
.
And when they
were come
to
the multitude
, there came
to him
a certain man
, kneeling down
to him
, and
saying
,
Lord, have mercy
on my
son
: for
he is lunatick
, and
sore
vexed
: for
ofttimes
he falleth
into
the fire
, and
oft
into
the water
.
And I brought
him
to thy
disciples
, and
they could
not
cure
him
.
Then Jesus
answered
and said
, O
faithless
and
perverse
generation
, how long
shall I be
with
you
? how long
shall I suffer
you
? bring
him
hither
to me
.
And Jesus
rebuked
the devil
; and
he
departed
out of
him
: and
the child
was cured
from
that very
hour
.
Then came
the disciples
to Jesus
apart
, and said
, Why
could
not
we
cast
him
out
?
And Jesus
said
unto them
, Because
of your
unbelief
: for
verily
I say
unto you
, If
ye have
faith
as
a grain
of mustard seed
, ye shall say
unto this
mountain
, Remove
hence
to yonder place
; and
it shall remove
; and
nothing
shall be impossible
unto you
.
Howbeit this
kind
goeth
not
out
but
by
prayer
and
fasting
.
And while they
abode
in
Galilee
, Jesus
said
unto them
, The Son
of man
shall be
betrayed
into
the hands
of men
:
And they shall kill
him
, and
the third
day
he shall be raised again
. And
they were exceeding
sorry
.
And when they
were come
to
Capernaum
, they that received
tribute
money came
to Peter
, and
said
, Doth
not
your
master
pay
tribute
?
He saith, Yes
. And
when
he was come
into
the house
, Jesus
prevented
him
, saying
, What
thinkest
thou
, Simon
? of
whom
do
the kings
of the earth
take
custom
or
tribute
? of
their own
children
, or
of
strangers
?
Peter saith
unto him
, Of
strangers
. Jesus
saith
unto him
, Then
are
the children
free
.
Notwithstanding, lest
we should offend
them
, go thou
to
the sea
, and cast
an hook
, and
take up
the fish
that first
cometh up
; and
when thou hast opened
his
mouth
, thou shalt find
a piece of money
: that
take
, and give
unto them
for
me
and
thee
.
