Luke 9:18-45

181And it happenedG1096 that whileG1722 He was 2prayingG4336 aloneG3441, the disciplesG3101 were with Him, and He questionedG1905 them, sayingG3004, “WhoG5101 do the 3peopleG3793 sayG3004 that I amG1510?” 19They answeredG611 and saidG3004, “JohnG2491 the BaptistG910, and othersG243 say ElijahG2243; but othersG243, that oneG5100 of the prophetsG4396 of oldG744 has risenG450.” 20And He saidG3004 to them, “But whoG5101 do you sayG3004 that I amG1510?” And PeterG4074 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “4The 5ChristG5547 of GodG2316.” 21But He 67warnedG2008 them and instructedG3853 them not to tellG3004 thisG3778 to anyoneG3367, 228sayingG3004, “9The SonG5207 of ManG444 mustG1163 sufferG3958 manyG4183 thingsG4183 and be rejectedG593 by the eldersG4245 and chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122, and be killedG615 and be raisedG1453 on the thirdG5154 dayG2250.”

23And He was sayingG3004 to them allG3956, “10IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wantsG2309 to comeG2064 afterG3694 Me, he must denyG720 himselfG1438, takeG142 upG142 his crossG4716 dailyG2596G2250, and followG190 Me. 24For 11whoeverG3739G1437 wantsG2309 to saveG4982 his 12lifeG5590 will loseG622 it, but whoeverG3739G302 losesG622 his 13lifeG5590 for My sakeG1752, thisG3778 is the one who will saveG4982 it. 25For whatG5101 goodG5623 does it doG5623 a personG444 if he gainsG2770 the wholeG3650 worldG2889, but 14losesG622 orG2228 forfeitsG2210 himselfG1438? 2615For whoeverG3739G302 isG1870 ashamedG1870 of Me and My wordsG3056, the SonG5207 of ManG444 will beG1870 ashamedG1870 of him whenG3752 He comesG2064 in His gloryG1391 and the glory of the FatherG3962 and the holyG40 angelsG32. 27But I sayG3004 to you truthfullyG230, 16there are someG5100 of thoseG3588 standingG2476 hereG847 whoG3739 will not tasteG1089 deathG2288 untilG2193 they seeG3708 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.”

2817AboutG5616 eightG3638 daysG2250 afterG3326 theseG3778 sayingsG3056, He tookG3880 alongG3880 18PeterG4074, JohnG2491, and JamesG2385, and 19wentG305 upG305 on the mountainG3735 20to prayG4336. 29And whileG1722 He was 21prayingG4336, the appearanceG1491 of His faceG4383 22becameG1096 differentG2087, and His clothingG2441 became whiteG3022 and 23gleamingG1823. 30And beholdG2400, twoG1417 menG435 were talkingG4814 with Him; and they were MosesG3475 and ElijahG2243, 31whoG3739, appearingG3708 in 24gloryG1391, were speakingG3004 of His 25departureG1841, whichG3739 He wasG3195 aboutG3195 toG3195 accomplishG4137 at JerusalemG2419. 32NowG1161 PeterG4074 and his companionsG3588G4862 26had beenG1510 overcomeG916 with sleepG5258; but when they were fullyG1235 awakeG1235, they sawG3708 His gloryG1391 and the twoG1417 menG435 who were standingG4921 with Him. 33And as 27theseG846 two men were leavingG1316 Him, PeterG4074 saidG3004 to JesusG2424, “28MasterG1988, it is goodG2570 that we are hereG5602; and 29let’s makeG4160 threeG5140 30tabernaclesG4633: oneG1520 for You, oneG1520 for MosesG3475, and oneG1520 for ElijahG2243”--31not realizingG3609 whatG3739 he was sayingG3004. 34But while he was sayingG3004 thisG3778, a cloudG3507 32formedG1096 and began to overshadowG1982 them; and they wereG5399 afraidG5399 as they enteredG1525 the cloudG3507. 35And then 33a voiceG5456 cameG1096 from the cloudG3507, sayingG3004, “34ThisG3778 is My SonG5207, My ChosenG1586 One; listenG191 to Him!” 36And whenG1722 the voiceG5456 35had spokenG1096, JesusG2424 was foundG2147 aloneG3441. And 36they keptG4601 silentG4601, and reportedG518 to noG3762 oneG3762 in thoseG1565 daysG2250 anyG3762 of the things whichG3739 they had seenG3708.

3737On the nextG1836 dayG2250, when they cameG2718 downG2718 from the mountainG3735, a largeG4183 crowdG3793 metG4876 Him. 38And a manG435 from the crowdG3793 shoutedG994, sayingG3004, “TeacherG1320, I begG1189 You to lookG1914 at my sonG5207, becauseG3754 he is my onlyG3439 son, 39and a spiritG4151 seizesG2983 him and he suddenlyG1810 screamsG2896, and it throwsG4682 him intoG4682 a convulsionG4682 with foamingG876 at the mouth; and onlyG3433 withG3433 difficultyG3433 does it leaveG672 him, maulingG4937 him as it leavesG672. 40And I beggedG1189 Your disciplesG3101 to castG1544 it outG1544, and they couldG1410 not.” 41And JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “YouG5599 unbelievingG571 and perverseG1294 generationG1074, howG2193 longG2193G4219 shall I be with you and putG430 upG430 with you? BringG4317 your sonG5207 hereG5602.” 42NowG1161 while he was stillG2089 approachingG4334, the demonG1140 slammedG4486 him toG4486 theG4486 groundG4486 and threwG4952 him intoG4952 aG4952 convulsionG4952. But JesusG2424 rebukedG2008 the uncleanG169 spiritG4151, and healedG2390 the boyG3816 and gaveG591 him backG591 to his fatherG3962. 43And they were allG3956 amazedG1605 at the 3839greatnessG3168 of GodG2316.

40But while everyoneG3956 wasG2296 astonishedG2296 at allG3956 that He was doingG4160, He saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, 44“As for you, let theseG3778 wordsG3056 sinkG5087 into your earsG3775: 41for the SonG5207 of ManG444 isG3195 goingG3195 toG3195 be 42handedG3860G5495 overG3860 to menG444.” 45But 43they 44did not understandG50 thisG3778 statementG4487, and it was concealedG3871 from them soG2443 thatG2443 they would not comprehendG143 it; and they wereG5399 afraidG5399 to askG2065 Him aboutG4012 thisG3778 statementG4487.
