King James VersionMark9

Mark

1 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. 2 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. 3 And his rai­ment be­came shin­ing, ex­ceed­ing white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them. 4 And there ap­peared unto 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 thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. 6 For he wist 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 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. 13 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. 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 ye with them? 17 And one of the mul­ti­tude an­swered and said, Mas­ter, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spir­it; 18 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. 19 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. 20 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. 21 And he asked his fa­ther, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. 22 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. 23 Je­sus said unto him, If thou canst be­lieve, all things are pos­si­ble to him that be­lieveth. 24 And straight­way the fa­ther of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I be­lieve; help thou mine un­be­lief. 25 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. 26 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. 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 unto them, This kind can come forth by noth­ing, but by prayer and fast­ing. 30 And they de­part­ed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it. 31 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. 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 ye 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 saith unto 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 midst of them: and when he had tak­en him in his arms, he said unto them, 37 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. 38 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. 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 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. 42 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. 43 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: 44 Where their worm di­eth not, and the fire is not quenched. 45 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: 46 Where their worm di­eth not, and the fire is not quenched. 47 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: 48 Where their worm di­eth 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 salt­ness, where­with will ye sea­son it? Have salt in your­selves, and have peace one with an­oth­er.
