Mark 9:1-27 ▼

1 And he saide vnto them: Ueryly I say vnto you, ther be some of them that stande here, whiche shall not taste of death, tyll they haue seene ye kyngdome of God come, with power.

2 And after sixe dayes, Iesus taketh Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and leadeth them vp into an hye mountayne, out of the way, alone: and he was transfigured before them.

3 And his rayment dyd shyne, & became very whyte, euen as snowe: so whyte, as no fuller can make vpon the earth.

4 And there appeared vnto them Elias, with Moyses: And they talked with Iesu.

5 And Peter aunswered, and sayth to Iesu: Maister, here is good beyng for vs, let vs make also three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moyses, and one for Elias.

6 For he wist not what he saide, for they were afrayde.

7 And there was a cloude that shadowed them: and a voyce came out of the cloude, saying, This is my beloued sonne, heare hym.

8 And sodenly, when they had loked rounde about, they sawe no man, more then Iesus only, with them.

9 And as they came downe from the hyll, he charged them, that they should tell no man those thynges that they had seene, tyll the sonne of man were rysen from the dead agayne.

10 And they kept that saying with them, and demaunded one of another, what the rysing from the dead againe, should meane?

11 And they asked hym, saying: Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?

12 He aunswered, and sayde vnto them: Elias veryly when he commeth firste, restoreth all thynges: And the sonne of man, as it is written of hym, shall suffer many thynges, & be set at naught.

13 But I saye vnto you, that Elias is come, & they haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they would, as it is writte of him.

14 And when he came to his disciples, he sawe much people about them, and the scribes disputyng with them.

15 And strayghtway all the people, whe they behelde hym, were amased, & ran to hym, and saluted hym.

16 And he asked the scribes, what dispute ye with them?

17 And one of the companie aunswered, & sayde: Maister, I haue brought vnto thee my sonne, whiche hath a dumbe spirite:

18 And whensoeuer he taketh hym, he teareth hym, & he fometh, and gnasheth with his teeth, & pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples, that they should cast hym out, and they coulde not.

19 He aunswereth hym, and sayth: O faythlesse nation, howe long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? Bryng hym vnto me.

20 And they brought him vnto him: And when he sawe hym, strayghtway the spirite tare hym: And he fell downe on the grounde, wallowyng and fomyng.

21 And he asketh his father, howe longe it is a go sence this came vnto hym? And he sayde, of a chylde.

22 And oft tymes it hath cast hym into the fire, and into the water, to destroye hym: But yf thou canst do any thyng, haue mercy on vs, and helpe vs.

23 Iesus sayde vnto hym: this thyng yf thou cans beleue, all thynges are possible to hym that beleueth.

24 And strayghtwaye the father of the childe cryed with teares, saying: Lorde I beleue, helpe thou mine vnbeliefe.

25 When Iesus sawe that the people came runnyng together, he rebuked the foule spirite, saying vnto hym: Thou dumbe and deafe spirite, I charge thee come out of hym, and enter no more into hym.

26 And the spirite, when he had cryed and rent him sore, came out of hym: and he was as one that had ben dead, insomuch that many sayde, he is dead.

27 But Iesus caught hym by the hande, and lyft hym vp: and he rose.
