AND after a six days Jesus taketh

Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart,

4 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. 5 While he yet spake, behold, ah ch.16.21. bright cloud overshadowed them: i Mar.9. 14. and behold a voice c out of the Lu.9.37,&c. cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom d I am well pleased; hear e ye him.

6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

7 And Jesus came and touched f them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

9 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.

10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?

11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.

12 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 h of them.

13 Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

14 T And i when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,

15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatic, and sore vexed: for oft-times he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him,

O faithless and perverse genera17 Then Jesus answered and said, tion! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? Bring him hither to me.

18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.

19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could

not we cast him out?

20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: k 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.

21 Howbeit, this kind goeth not out, but by prayer and fasting.

22 T And while m they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men;

23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding

sorry. 24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received. 1 tribute-money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

25 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?

26 Peter saith unto him, Of stran gers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.

14 T And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, I and sick of a fever. 15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many m that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick :

10 T His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.g

11 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.

12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs,which were made eunuchs of men and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake.h He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

13 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray and the disciples rebuked them.

14 But Jesus said, Suffer i little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such k is the kingdom of heaven.

15 And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.

16 T And behold, one came, and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt m do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness, 19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou n shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet!

21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go o and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven. and come and follow p me.

22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions. 23 T Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall a hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say unto you.
