Darby Bible

1And after sixG1803 daysG2250 JesusG2424 takesG3880 with [him] PeterG4074, and JamesG2385, and JohnG2491 his brotherG80, and brings them up into a highG5308 mountainG3735 apart. 2And he was transfigured before them. And his faceG4383 shoneG2989 as the sunG2246, and his garmentsG2440 becameG1096 whiteG3022 as the lightG5457; 3and lo, MosesG3475 and Elias appeared to them talkingG4814 with him. 4And PeterG4074 answeringG611 saidG3004 to JesusG2424, LordG2962, it isG1510 goodG2570 we should beG1510 hereG5602. If thou wilt, let us makeG4160 hereG5602 threeG5140 tabernaclesG4633: for thee oneG1520, and for MosesG3475 oneG1520, and oneG1520 for Elias. 5While he wasG1510 stillG2089 speakingG2980, beholdG2400, a bright cloudG3507 overshadowedG1982 them, and lo, a voiceG5456 out of the cloudG3507, sayingG3004, This isG1510 my belovedG27 SonG5207, in whom I have found my delight: hearG191 him. 6And the disciplesG3101 hearingG191 [it] fellG4098 upon their facesG4383, and were greatlyG4970 terrified. 7And JesusG2424 comingG4334 to [them] touchedG681 them, and saidG3004, RiseG1453 up, and be not terrified. 8And liftingG1869 up their eyesG3788, they sawG3708 no oneG3762 but JesusG2424 aloneG3441. 9And as they descendedG2597 from the mountainG3735, JesusG2424 charged them, sayingG3004, TellG3004 the visionG3705 to no oneG3367, until the SonG5207 of manG444 be risenG1453 up from among [the] deadG3498. 10And [his] disciplesG3101 demanded of him sayingG3004, WhyG5101 then sayG3004 the scribesG1122 that Elias must firstG4413 have comeG2064? 11And he answeringG611 saidG3004 to them, Elias indeed comesG2064 first and will restore all thingsG3956. 12But I sayG3004 unto you that Elias has alreadyG2235 comeG2064, and they have not knownG1921 him, but have done unto him whatever they would. ThusG3779 alsoG2532 the SonG5207 of manG444 is about to sufferG3958 from them. 13ThenG5119 the disciplesG3101 understoodG4920 that he spokeG3004 to them of JohnG2491 the baptistG910. 14And when they cameG2064 to the crowdG3793, a manG444 cameG2064 to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying, 15LordG2962, have mercyG1653 on my sonG5207, for he is lunatic, and suffersG3958 sorely; for oftenG4178 he fallsG4098 into the fireG4442 and oftenG4178 into the waterG5204. 16And I broughtG4374 him to thy disciplesG3101, and they were not ableG1410 to healG2323 him. 17And JesusG2424 answeringG611 saidG3004, O unbelievingG571 and pervertedG1294 generationG1074, how long shall I beG1510 with you? how long shall I bearG5342 with you? BringG5342 him hereG5602 to me. 18And JesusG2424 rebukedG2008 him, and the demonG1140 wentG1831 out from him, and the boyG3816 was healedG2323 from that hourG5610. 19ThenG5119 the disciplesG3101, comingG4334 to JesusG2424 apart, saidG3004 [to him], WhyG5101 were not we ableG1410 to castG1544 him out? 20And he saysG3004 to them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I sayG3004 unto you, If ye have faithG4102 as a grainG2848 of mustardG4615 [seed], ye shall sayG3004 to this mountainG3735, Be transported hence there, and it shall transport itself; and nothing shall be impossibleG101 to you. 21But this kind does not go out but by prayer and fasting. 22And while they abode in GalileeG1056, JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, The SonG5207 of manG444 is about to be deliveredG3860 up into [the] handsG5495 of menG444, 23and they shall killG615 him; and the thirdG5154 dayG2250 he shall be raisedG1453 up. And they were greatlyG4970 grievedG3076. 24And when they cameG2064 to CapernaumG2584, those who receivedG2983 the didrachmas cameG2064 to PeterG4074 and saidG3004, Does your teacherG1320 not pay the didrachmas? 25He saysG3004, YesG3483. And when he cameG2064 into the houseG3614, JesusG2424 anticipated him, sayingG3004, What dost thou thinkG1380, SimonG4613? the kingsG935 of the earthG1093, from whom do they receiveG2983 custom or tribute? from their own sonsG5207 or from strangersG245? 26Peter saysG3004 to him, From strangersG245. JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, ThenG1161 areG1510 the sonsG5207 freeG1658. 27But that we may not be an offence to them, goG4198 to the seaG2281 and castG906 a hook, and takeG142 the firstG4413 fishG2486 that comesG305 up, and when thou hast openedG455 its mouthG4750 thou wilt findG2147 a stater; takeG142 that and giveG1325 it to them for me and thee.
