1 And after six days Jesus takes with {him} Peter, and James, and John his brother, and brings them up into a high mountain apart.
2 And he was transfigured before them. And his face shone as the sun, and his garments became white as the light;
3 and lo, Moses and Elias appeared to them talking with him.
4 And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good we should be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles: for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elias.
5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, *This* is my beloved Son, in whom I have found my delight: hear him.
6 And the disciples hearing {it} fell upon their faces, and were greatly terrified.
7 And Jesus coming to {them} touched them, and said, Rise up, and be not terrified.
8 And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus alone.
9 And as they descended from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, until the Son of man be risen up from among {the} dead.
10 And {his} disciples demanded of him saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first have come?
11 And he answering said to them, Elias indeed comes first and will restore all things.
12 But I say unto you that Elias has already come, and they have not known him, but have done unto him whatever they would. Thus also the Son of man is about to suffer from them.
13 Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the baptist.
14 And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying,
15 Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is lunatic, and suffers sorely; for often he falls into the fire and often into the water.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.
17 And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out from him, and the boy was healed from that hour.
19 Then the disciples, coming to Jesus apart, said {to him}, Why were not *we* able to cast him out?
20 And he says to them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard {seed}, ye shall say to this mountain, Be transported hence there, and it shall transport itself; and nothing shall be impossible to you.
21 But this kind does not go out but by prayer and fasting.
22 And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into {the} hands of men,
23 and they shall kill him; and the third day he shall be raised up. And they were greatly grieved.
24 And when they came to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your teacher not pay the didrachmas?
25 He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What dost thou think, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive custom or tribute? from their own sons or from strangers?
26 Peter says to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.
27 But that we may not be an offence to them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take the first fish that comes up, and when thou hast opened its mouth thou wilt find a stater; take that and give it to them for me and thee.
1 过了六天， 耶稣带着彼得、雅各和雅各的弟弟约翰， 领他们悄悄地上了高山。
2 耶稣在他们面前改变了形象， 脸好像太阳一样照耀， 衣服洁白像光。
3 忽然， 摩西和以利亚向他们显现， 跟耶稣谈话。
4 彼得对耶稣说： "主啊， 我们在这里真好。如果你愿意， 我就在这里搭三个帐棚， 一个为你， 一个为摩西， 一个为以利亚。"
5 彼得还说话的时候， 有一朵明亮的云彩笼罩他们， 云中有声音说： "这是我的爱子， 我所喜悦的， 你们要听他。"
6 门徒听见了， 就俯伏在地上， 非常害怕。
7 耶稣前来， 摸着他们说： "起来， 不用怕。"
8 他们抬起头来， 看见只有耶稣自己， 没有别的人。
9 他们下山的时候， 耶稣吩咐他们： "人子从死人中复活以前， 你们不要把所看见的异象告诉人。"
10 门徒就问他： "那么经学家为什么说， 以利亚必须先来呢？"
11 他回答： "以利亚当然要来， 并且复兴一切。
12 但我告诉你们， 以利亚已经来了， 可是人们却不认识他， 反而任意待他。照样， 人子也要这样被他们苦待。"
13 这时门徒才领悟， 耶稣是指着施洗的约翰说的。
14 耶稣和门徒来到群众那里， 有一个人前来， 跪下对耶稣说：
15 "主啊， 可怜我的儿子吧， 他患了癫痫病， 非常痛苦， 好几次掉进火里和水中。
16 我带他去见你的门徒， 他们却不能医好他。"
17 耶稣说： "唉！ 这又不信又乖谬的世代啊！ 我要跟你们在一起到几时呢？我要忍受你们到几时呢？把孩子带到我这里来吧。"
18 耶稣斥责那鬼， 鬼就从孩子身上出来； 从那时起， 孩子就好了。
19 门徒悄悄地前来问耶稣： "为什么我们不能把鬼赶出去呢？"
20 他说： "因为你们的信心太小了。我实在告诉你们， 只要你们的信心像一粒芥菜种， 就是对这山说： ‘从这里移到那里’， 它也必移开。没有什么是你们不能作的。"
21 （有些抄本有第21节： "这一类的鬼， 如果不靠祷告和禁食， 是赶不出来的。"）
22 他们聚集在加利利的时候， 耶稣对门徒说： "人子将要被交在人的手里，
23 他们要杀害他， 第三天他要复活。"他们就很忧愁。
24 他们来到迦百农， 收殿税的人前来对彼得说： "你们的老师不纳税吗？"
25 他说： "纳。"他进到屋子里， 耶稣先问他： "西门， 你认为怎样？地上的君王向谁征收关税和丁税？向自己的儿子还是外人呢？"
26 他回答： "外人。"耶稣对他说： "这样， 儿子就可以免税了。
27 但为了避免触犯他们， 你要到海边去钓鱼； 把第一条钓上来的鱼拿起来， 打开鱼的嘴， 你就会找到一个大银币。你可以拿去交给他们作你我的殿税。"
