1 وقال لهم الحق اقول لكم ان من القيام ههنا قوما لا يذوقون الموت حتى يروا ملكوت الله قد أتى بقوة2 وبعد ستة ايام اخذ يسوع بطرس ويعقوب ويوحنا وصعد بهم الى جبل عال منفردين وحدهم. وتغيّرت هيئته قدامهم3 وصارت ثيابه تلمع بيضاء جدا كالثلج لا يقدر قصّار على الارض ان يبيض مثل ذلك.4 وظهر لهم ايليا مع موسى. وكانا يتكلمان مع يسوع.5 فجعل بطرس يقول ليسوع يا سيدي جيد ان نكون ههنا. فلنصنع ثلاث مظال. لك واحدة ولموسى واحدة ولايليا واحدة.6 لانه لم يكن يعلم ما يتكلم به اذ كانوا مرتعبين.7 وكانت سحابة تظللهم. فجاء صوت من السحابة قائلا هذا هو ابني الحبيب له اسمعوا.8 فنظروا حولهم بغتة ولم يروا احدا غير يسوع وحده معهم9 وفيما هم نازلون من الجبل اوصاهم ان لا يحدثوا احد بما ابصروا الا متى قام ابن الانسان من الاموات.10 فحفظوا الكلمة لانفسهم يتساءلون ما هو القيام من الاموات.11 فسألوه قائلين لماذا يقول الكتبة ان ايليا ينبغي ان يأتي اولا.12 فاجاب وقال لهم ان ايليا يأتي اولا ويرد كل شيء. وكيف هو مكتوب عن ابن الانسان ان يتألم كثيرا ويرذل.13 لكن اقول لكم ان ايليا ايضا قد أتى وعملوا به كل ما ارادوا كما هو مكتوب عنه14 ولما جاء الى التلاميذ رأى جمعا كثيرا حولهم وكتبة يحاورونهم.15 وللوقت كل الجمع لما رأوه تحيّروا وركضوا وسلموا عليه.16 فسأل الكتبة بماذا تحاورونهم.17 فاجاب واحد من الجمع وقال يا معلّم قد قدمت اليك ابني به روح اخرس.18 وحيثما ادركه يمزقه فيزبد ويصرّ باسنانه وييبس. فقلت لتلاميذك ان يخرجوه فلم يقدروا.19 فاجاب وقال لهم ايها الجيل غير المؤمن الى متى اكون معكم. الى متى احتملكم . ‎ قدموه اليّ.20 فقدموه اليه. فلما رآه للوقت صرعه الروح فوقع على الارض يتمرغ ويزبد.21 فسأل اباه كم من الزمان منذ اصابه هذا. فقال منذ صباه.22 وكثيرا ما ألقاه في النار وفي الماء ليهلكه. لكن ان كنت تستطيع شيئا فتحنن علينا واعنّا.23 فقال له يسوع ان كنت تستطيع ان تؤمن. كل شيء مستطاع للمؤمن.24 فللوقت صرخ ابو الولد بدموع وقال اؤمن يا سيد فاعن عدم ايماني.25 فلما رأى يسوع ان الجمع يتراكضون انتهر الروح النجس قائلا له ايها الروح الاخرس الاصم انا آمرك. اخرج منه ولا تدخله ايضا.26 فصرخ وصرعه شديدا وخرج. فصار كميت حتى قال كثيرون انه مات.27 فامسكه يسوع بيده واقامه فقام.28 ولما دخل بيتا سأله تلاميذه على انفراد لماذا لم نقدر نحن ان نخرجه.29 فقال لهم هذا الجنس لا يمكن ان يخرج بشيء الا بالصلاة والصوم30 وخرجوا من هناك واجتازوا الجليل ولم يرد ان يعلم احد.31 لانه كان يعلّم تلاميذه ويقول لهم ان ابن الانسان يسلم الى ايدي الناس فيقتلونه. وبعد ان يقتل يقوم في اليوم الثالث.32 واما هم فلم يفهموا القول وخافوا ان يسألوه33 وجاء الى كفرناحوم. واذ كان في البيت سألهم بماذا كنتم تتكالمون فيما بينكم في الطريق.34 فسكتوا. لانهم تحاجوا في الطريق بعضهم مع بعض في من هو اعظم.35 فجلس ونادى الاثني عشر وقال لهم اذا اراد احد ان يكون اولا فيكون آخر الكل وخادما للكل.36 فاخذ ولدا واقامه في وسطهم ثم احتضنه وقال لهم.37 من قبل واحدا من اولاد مثل هذا باسمي يقبلني ومن قبلني فليس يقبلني انا بل الذي ارسلني38 فاجابه يوحنا قائلا يا معلّم رأينا واحدا يخرج شياطين باسمك وهو ليس يتبعنا. فمنعناه لانه ليس يتبعنا.39 فقال يسوع لا تمنعوه. لانه ليس احد يصنع قوة باسمي ويستطيع سريعا ان يقول علي شرا.40 لان من ليس علينا فهو معنا.41 لان من سقاكم كاس ماء باسمي لانكم للمسيح فالحق اقول لكم انه لا يضيع اجره.42 ومن اعثر احد الصغار المؤمنين بي فخير له لو طوق عنقه بحجر رحى وطرح في البحر.43 وان اعثرتك يدك فاقطعها. خير لك ان تدخل الحياة اقطع من ان تكون لك يدان وتمضي الى جهنم الى النار التي لا تطفأ.44 حيث دودهم لا يموت والنار لا تطفأ.45 وان اعثرتك رجلك فاقطعها. خير لك ان تدخل الحياة اعرج من ان تكون لك رجلان وتطرح في جهنم في النار التي لا تطفا.46 حيث دودهم لا يموت والنار لا تطفأ.47 وان اعثرتك عينك فاقلعها. خير لك ان تدخل ملكوت الله اعور من ان تكون لك عينان وتطرح في جهنم النار.48 حيث دودهم لا يموت والنار لا تطفأ.49 لان كل واحد يملّح بنار وكل ذبيحة تملّح بملح.50 الملح جيد. ولكن اذا صار الملح بلا ملوحة فبماذا تصلحونه. ليكن لكم في انفسكم ملح وسالموا بعضكم بعضا

1 And he said to them, Truly I say to 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.2 And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, and leads them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.4 And there appeared to them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.5 And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.6 For he knew not what to say; for they were sore afraid.7 And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.9 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.10 And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?12 And he answered and told them, Elias truly comes first, and restores all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nothing.13 But I say to you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they listed, as it is written of him.14 And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.15 And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.16 And he asked the scribes, What question you with them?17 And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought to you my son, which has a dumb spirit;18 And wherever he takes him, he tears him: and he foams, and gnashes with his teeth, and pines away: and I spoke to your disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.19 He answers him, and said, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him to me.20 And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came to him? And he said, Of a child.22 And often it has cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if you can do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.23 Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes.24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help you my unbelief.25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, You dumb and deaf spirit, I charge you, come out of him, and enter no more into him.26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; so that many said, He is dead.27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?29 And he said to them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.30 And they departed there, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.31 For he taught his disciples, and said to 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.32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.33 And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that you disputed among yourselves by the way?34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and said to them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.36 And he took a child, and set him in the middle of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said to them,37 Whoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receives me: and whoever shall receive me, receives not me, but him that sent me.38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in your name, and he follows not us: and we forbade him, because he follows not us.39 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.40 For he that is not against us is on our part.41 For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to Christ, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.42 And whoever 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.43 And if your hand offend you, cut it off: it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:44 Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.45 And if your foot offend you, cut it off: it is better for you to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:46 Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.47 And if your eye offend you, pluck it out: it is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:48 Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.49 For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltiness, with which will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
