1
ThenG1161 he calledG4779 his twelveG1427 disciplesG3101 together,G4779 and gaveG1325 them powerG1411 and authorityG1849 overG1909 allG3956 devils,G1140 and to cureG2323 diseases.G3554
2
And he sentG649 them to preachG2784 the kingdomG932 of God,G2316 and to healG2390 the sick.G770
3
And he saidG2036 to them, TakeG142 nothingG3367 for yourG3588 journey,G3598 neitherG3383 staves,G4464 norG3383 money,G4082 neitherG3383 bread,G740 neitherG3383 money;G694 neitherG3383 haveG2192 twoG1417 coatsG5509 apiece.G303
4
And whateverG3739 G302 houseG3614 you enterG1525 into,G1519 thereG1563 abide,G3306 and thereG1564 depart.G1831
5
And whoeverG3745 G302 will not receiveG1209 you, when you goG1831 out of that city,G4172 shakeG660 offG660 the veryG2532 dustG2868 from yourG5216 feetG4228 for a testimonyG3142 againstG1909 them.
6
And they departed,G1831 and wentG1330 throughG2596 the towns,G2968 preachingG2097 the gospel,G2097 and healingG2323 everyG3837 where.G3837
7
NowG1161 HerodG2264 the tetrarchG5076 heardG191 of allG3956 that was doneG1096 by him: and he was perplexed,G1280 becauseG1223 that it was saidG3004 of some,G5100 that JohnG2491 was risenG1453 from the dead;G3498
8
And of some,G5100 that EliasG2243 had appeared;G5316 and of others,G243 that oneG1520 of the oldG744 prophetsG4396 was risenG450 again.G450
9
And HerodG2264 said,G2036 JohnG2491 have I beheaded:G607 but whoG5101 is this,G3778 of whomG3739 I hearG191 suchG3634 things? And he desiredG2212 to seeG1492 him.
10
And the apostles,G652 when they were returned,G5290 toldG1334 him allG3745 that they had done.G4160 And he tookG3880 them, and wentG5298 asideG5298 privatelyG2596 G2398 intoG1519 a desertG2048 placeG5117 belonging to the cityG4172 calledG2564 Bethsaida.G966
11
And the people,G3793 when they knewG1097 it, followedG190 him: and he receivedG1209 them, and spokeG2980 to them of the kingdomG932 of God,G2316 and healedG2390 them that hadG2192 needG5532 of healing.G2322
12
And when the dayG2250 beganG756 to wearG2827 away, thenG1161 cameG4334 the twelve,G1427 and saidG2036 to him, SendG630 the multitudeG3793 away,G630 that they may goG565 intoG1519 the townsG2968 and countryG68 roundG2943 about,G2945 and lodge,G2647 and getG2147 victuals:G1979 for we are hereG5602 in a desertG2048 place.G5117
13
But he saidG2036 to them, GiveG1325 you them to eat.G5315 And they said,G2036 We haveG2076 noG3756 moreG4119 but fiveG4002 loavesG740 and twoG1417 fishes;G2486 exceptG1509 we should goG4198 and buyG59 meatG1033 for allG3956 thisG5126 people.G2992
14
For they were aboutG5616 fiveG4000 thousandG4000 men.G435 And he saidG2036 to his disciples,G3101 MakeG2625 them sitG2625 downG2625 by fiftiesG4004 in a company.G2828
15
And they didG4160 so,G3779 and madeG347 them allG537 sitG347 down.G347
16
ThenG1161 he tookG2983 the fiveG4002 loavesG740 and the twoG1417 fishes,G2486 and lookingG308 up to heaven,G3772 he blessedG2127 them, and broke,G2622 and gaveG1325 to the disciplesG3101 to setG3908 beforeG3908 the multitude.G3793
17
And they did eat,G5315 and were allG3956 filled:G5526 and there was takenG142 up of fragmentsG2801 that remainedG4052 to them twelveG1427 baskets.G2894
18
And it cameG1096 to pass, as he was aloneG2651 praying,G4336 his disciplesG3101 were with him: and he askedG1905 them, saying,G3004 WhomG5101 sayG3004 the peopleG3793 that I am?G1511
19
They answeringG611 said,G2036 JohnG2491 the Baptist;G910 but someG243 say,G2036 Elias;G2243 and othersG243 say, that oneG5100 of the oldG744 prophetsG4396 is risenG450 again.G450
20
He saidG2036 to them, But whomG5101 sayG3004 you that I am?G1511 PeterG4074 answeringG611 said,G2036 The ChristG5547 of God.G2316
21
And he straightly chargedG2008 them, and commandedG3853 them to tellG2036 noG3367 manG3367 that thing;
22
Saying,G2036 The SonG5207 of manG444 mustG1163 sufferG3958 manyG4183 things, and be rejectedG593 of the eldersG4245 and chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribes,G1122 and be slain,G615 and be raisedG1453 the thirdG5154 day.G2250
23
And he saidG3004 to them all,G3956 IfG1487 anyG5100 man willG2309 comeG2064 afterG3694 me, let him denyG533 himself,G1438 and takeG142 up his crossG4716 daily,G2596 G2250 and followG190 me.
24
For whoeverG3739 G302 willG2309 saveG4982 his lifeG5590 shall loseG622 it: but whoeverG3739 G302 will loseG622 his lifeG5590 for my sake,G1752 the sameG3778 shall saveG4982 it.
25
For whatG5101 is a manG444 advantaged,G5623 if he gainG2770 the wholeG3650 world,G2889 and loseG622 himself,G1438 orG2228 be castG2210 away?G2210
26
For whoeverG3739 G302 shall be ashamedG1870 of me and of my words,G3056 of him shall the SonG5207 of manG444 be ashamed,G1870 whenG3752 he shall comeG2064 in his own glory,G1391 and in his Father's,G3962 and of the holyG40 angels.G32
27
But I tellG3004 you of a truth,G230 there be someG5100 standingG2476 here,G5602 whichG3739 shall not tasteG1089 of death,G2288 tillG2193 they seeG1492 the kingdomG932 of God.G2316
28
And it cameG1096 to pass aboutG5616 an eightG3638 daysG2250 afterG3326 theseG5128 sayings,G3056 he tookG3880 PeterG4074 and JohnG2491 and James,G2385 and wentG305 up intoG1519 a mountainG3735 to pray.G4336
29
And as he prayed,G4336 the fashionG1491 of his countenanceG4383 was altered,G1096 G2097 and his raimentG2441 was whiteG3022 and glistering.G1823
30
And, behold,G2400 there talkedG4814 with him twoG1417 men,G435 whichG3748 were MosesG3475 and Elias:G2243
31
WhoG3739 appearedG3700 in glory,G1391 and spokeG3004 of his deceaseG1841 whichG3739 he shouldG3195 accomplishG4137 atG1722 Jerusalem.G2419
32
But PeterG4074 and they that were with him were heavyG916 with sleep:G5258 and when they were awake,G1235 they sawG1492 his glory,G1391 and the twoG1417 menG435 that stoodG4921 with him.
33
And it cameG1096 to pass, as they departedG1316 from him, PeterG4074 saidG2036 to Jesus,G2424 Master,G1988 it is goodG2570 for us to be here:G5602 and let us makeG4160 threeG5140 tabernacles;G4633 oneG3391 for you, and oneG3391 for Moses,G3475 and oneG3391 for Elias:G2243 not knowingG1492 whatG3739 he said.G3004
34
While he thusG5023 spoke,G3004 there cameG1096 a cloud,G3507 and overshadowedG1982 them: and they fearedG5399 as they enteredG1525 intoG1519 the cloud.G3507
35
And there cameG1096 a voiceG5456 out of the cloud,G3507 saying,G3004 ThisG3778 is my belovedG27 Son:G5207 hearG191 him.
36
And whenG1722 G3588 the voiceG5456 was past,G1096 JesusG2424 was foundG2147 alone.G3441 And they keptG4601 it close,G4601 and toldG518 noG3762 manG3762 in thoseG1565 daysG2250 anyG3762 of those things whichG3739 they had seen.G3708
37
And it cameG1096 to pass, that onG1722 the nextG1836 day,G2250 when they were comeG2718 downG2718 from the hill,G3735 muchG4183 peopleG3793 metG4876 him.
38
And, behold,G2400 a manG435 of the companyG3793 criedG310 out, saying,G3004 Master,G1320 I beseechG1189 you, lookG1914 on my son:G5207 for he is myG3427 onlyG3439 child.G3439
39
And, see,G2400 a spiritG4151 takesG2983 him, and he suddenlyG1810 criesG2896 out; and it tearsG4682 him that he foamsG876 again,G3326 and bruisingG4937 him hardlyG3425 departsG672 from him.
40
And I soughtG1189 your disciplesG3101 to castG1544 him out; and they couldG1410 not.
41
And JesusG2424 answeringG611 said,G2036 O faithlessG571 and perverseG1294 generation,G1074 howG2193 longG2193 shall I be with you, and sufferG430 you? BringG4317 your sonG5207 here.G5602
42
And as he was yetG2089 a coming,G4334 the devilG1140 threwG4952 him down, and tareG4952 him. And JesusG2424 rebukedG2008 the uncleanG169 spirit,G4151 and healedG2390 the child,G3816 and deliveredG591 him againG591 to his father.G3962
43
And they were allG3956 amazedG1605 atG1909 the mightyG3168 powerG3168 of God.G2316 But while they wonderedG2296 everyG3956 oneG3956 atG1909 allG3956 things whichG3739 JesusG2424 did,G4160 he saidG2036 to his disciples,G3101
44
Let theseG5128 sayingsG3056 sinkG5087 down intoG1519 yourG5216 ears:G3775 for the SonG5207 of manG444 shall be deliveredG3860 intoG1519 the handsG5495 of men.G444
45
But they understoodG50 not thisG5127 saying,G4487 and it was hidG3871 from them, that they perceivedG143 it not: and they fearedG5399 to askG2065 him of that saying.G4487
46
ThenG1161 there aroseG1525 a reasoningG1261 amongG1722 them, whichG5101 of them should be greatest.G3187
47
And Jesus,G2424 perceivingG1492 the thoughtG1261 of their heart,G2588 tookG1949 a child,G3813 and setG2476 him by him,
48
And saidG2036 to them, WhoeverG3739 G1437 shall receiveG1209 thisG5124 childG3813 in my nameG3686 receivesG1209 me: and whoeverG3739 G1437 shall receiveG1209 me receivesG1209 him that sentG649 me: for he that is leastG3398 amongG1722 you all,G3956 the sameG3778 shall be great.G3173
49
And JohnG2491 answeredG611 and said,G2036 Master,G1988 we sawG1492 oneG5100 castingG1544 out devilsG1140 in your name;G3686 and we forbadeG2967 him, becauseG3754 he followsG190 not with us.
50
And JesusG2424 saidG2036 to him, ForbidG2967 him not: for he that is not againstG2596 us is for us.
51
And it cameG1096 to pass, whenG1722 G3588 the timeG2250 was comeG4845 that he should be receivedG354 up, he steadfastlyG4741 setG4741 his faceG4383 to goG4198 to Jerusalem,G2419
52
And sentG649 messengersG32 beforeG4253 his face:G4383 and they went,G4198 and enteredG1525 intoG1519 a villageG2968 of the Samaritans,G4541 to makeG2090 readyG2090 for him.
53
And they did not receiveG1209 him, becauseG3754 his faceG4383 was as though he would goG4198 to Jerusalem.G2419
54
And when his disciplesG3101 JamesG2385 and JohnG2491 sawG1492 this, they said,G2036 Lord,G2962 willG2309 you that we commandG2036 fireG4442 to comeG2597 downG2597 from heaven,G3772 and consumeG355 them, evenG2532 as EliasG2243 did?G4160
55
But he turned,G4762 and rebukedG2008 them, and said,G2036 You knowG1492 not whatG3634 mannerG3634 of spiritG4151 you are of.
56
For the SonG5207 of manG444 is not comeG2064 to destroyG622 men'sG444 lives,G5590 but to saveG4982 them. And they wentG4198 to anotherG2087 village.G2968
57
And it cameG1096 to pass, that, as they wentG4198 in the way,G3598 a certainG5100 man saidG2036 to him, Lord,G2962 I will followG190 you whereverG3699 G302 you go.G565
58
And JesusG2424 saidG2036 to him, FoxesG258 haveG2192 holes,G5454 and birdsG4071 of the airG3772 have nests;G2682 but the SonG5207 of manG444 hasG2192 not whereG4226 to layG2827 his head.G2776
59
And he saidG2036 to another,G2087 FollowG190 me. But he said,G2036 Lord,G2962 sufferG2010 me firstG4412 to goG565 and buryG2290 my father.G3962
60
JesusG2424 saidG2036 to him, LetG863 the deadG3498 buryG2290 their dead:G3498 but goG565 you and preachG1229 the kingdomG932 of God.G2316
61
And anotherG2087 alsoG2532 said,G2036 Lord,G2962 I will followG190 you; but letG2010 me firstG4412 go bidG657 them farewell,G657 which are atG1519 home at my house.G3624
62
And JesusG2424 saidG2036 to him, NoG3762 man,G3762 havingG5607 G1722 putG1911 his handG5495 to the plough,G723 and lookingG991 back,G3694 is fitG2111 for the kingdomG932 of God.G2316
