Mark 9
- And he said unto them, Verily I say unto
you, That there be some of them that stand here, which
shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God
come with power.
- And after six days Jesus taketh with him
Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was
transfigured before them.
- And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no
fuller on earth can white them.
- And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking
with Jesus.
- And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be
here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and
one for Elias.
- For he wist not what to say; for they were
sore afraid.
- And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of
the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
- And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any
more, save Jesus only with themselves.
- And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they
should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen
from the dead.
- And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
- And they asked him, saying, Why say the
scribes that Elias must first come?
- And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of
man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.
- But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done
unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
- And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about
them, and the scribes questioning with them.
- And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly
amazed, and running to him saluted him.
- And he asked the scribes, What question ye
with them?
- And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought
unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;
- And wheresoever he taketh
him, he teareth him: and he foameth,
and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth
away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should
cast him out; and they could not.
- He answereth him, and saith,
O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how
long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
- And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the
spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
- And he asked his father, How long is it ago
since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.
- And ofttimes it hath cast him into the
fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have
compassion on us, and help us.
- Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe,
all things are possible to him that believeth.
- And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with
tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
- When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the
foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come
out of him, and enter no more into him.
- And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he
was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.
- But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
- And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him
privately, Why could not we cast him out?
- And he said unto them, This kind can come
forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
- And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee;
and he would not that any man should know it.
- 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 that he is
killed, he shall rise the third day.
- But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.
- And he came to Capernaum:
and being in the house he asked them, What was it that
ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
- But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among
themselves, who should be the greatest.
- And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith
unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same
shall be last of all, and servant of all.
- And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he
had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
- Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
- And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils
in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad
him, because he followeth not us.
- But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there
is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of
me.
- For he that is not against us is on our part.
- For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name,
because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his
reward.
- And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in
me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged
about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
- And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to
enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire
that never shall be quenched:
- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire
is not quenched.
- And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to
enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire
that never shall be quenched:
- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire
is not quenched.
- And if thine eye offend thee, 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 hell fire:
- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire
is not quenched.
- For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall
be salted with salt.
- Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his
saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in
yourselves, and have peace one with another.
