10So the disciples asked him, "Why, then, do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?" | 10And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come? |
11He answered them, "Elijah is indeed coming and will restore all things. | 11And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. |
12But I tell you that Elijah has already come, yet people did not recognize him and treated him just as they pleased.

Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. |

17Jesus replied, "You unbelieving and perverted generation! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to me!" | 17Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me. |
18Then Jesus rebuked the demon and it came out of him, and the boy was healed that very hour. | 18And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour. |
19Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and asked, "Why couldn't we drive it out?" | 19Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? |
20He told them, "Because of your lack of faith. I tell all of you with certainty, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you. | 20And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: 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. |

25He answered, "Yes." When Peter went home, Jesus spoke to him first and asked him, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings on the earth collect tolls or tributes? From their own subjects, or from foreigners?" | 25He 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"From foreigners," he replied. So Jesus told him, "In that case, the subjects are exempt. | 26Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free. |
