MARK ยท Chapter 9
9:1 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some
of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have
seen the kingdom of God come with power.
9:2 And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John,
and leads them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was
transfigured before them.
9:3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as
no launderer on earth can white them.
9:4 And there appeared unto them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking
with Jesus.
9:5 And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us
to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for
Moses, and one for Elijah.
9:6 For he knows not what to say; for they were sore afraid.
9:7 And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came
out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
9:8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man
any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
9:9 And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they
should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were
risen from the dead.
9:10 And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning
one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
9:11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elijah must
first come?
9:12 And he answered and told them, Elijah verily comes first, and
restores all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must
suffer many things, and be set at nothing.
9:13 But I say unto you, That Elijah is indeed come, and they have
done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
9:14 And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about
them, and the scribes questioning with them.
9:15 And immediately all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly
amazed, and running to him saluted him.
9:16 And he asked the scribes, What question all of you with them?
9:17 And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought
unto you my son, which has a dumb spirit;
9:18 And where ever he takes him, he tears him: and he foams, and gnashes
with his teeth, and pins away: and I spoke to your disciples that they
should cast him out; and they could not.
9:19 He answers him, and says, O faithless generation, how long shall
I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
9:20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, immediately
the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed
foaming.
9:21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto
him? And he said, Of a child.
9:22 And frequently it has cast him into the fire, and into the waters,
to destroy him: but if you can do any thing, have compassion on us, and
help us.
9:23 Jesus said unto him, If you can believe, all things are possible
to him that believes.
9:24 And immediately the father of the child cried out, and said with
tears, Lord, I believe; help you mine unbelief.
9:25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked
the foul spirit, saying unto him, You dumb and deaf spirit,
I charge you, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
9:26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him:
and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.
9:27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
9:28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately,
Why could not we cast him out?
9:29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but
by prayer and fasting.
9:30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would
not that any man should know it.
9:31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man
is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after
that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.
9:32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid
to ask him.
9:33 And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them,
What was it that all of you disputed among yourselves by the way?
9:34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among
themselves, who should be the greatest.
9:35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and says unto them, If
any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant
of all.
9:36 And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when
he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
9:37 Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receives
me: and whosoever shall receive me, receives not me, but him that sent
me.
9:38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out
devils in your name, and he follows not us: and we forbad him, because
he follows not us.
9:39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall
do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
9:40 For he that is not against us is on our part.
9:41 For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name,
because all of you belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not
lose his reward.
9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe
in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck,
and he were cast into the sea.
9:43 And if your hand offend you, cut it off: it is better for you
to enter into life physically disabled, than having two hands to go into
hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
9:44 Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.
9:45 And if your foot offend you, cut it off: it is better for you
to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into
the fire that never shall be quenched:
9:46 Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.
9:47 And if your eye offend you, pluck it out: it is better for you
to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to
be cast into hell fire:
9:48 Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.
9:49 For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall
be salted with salt.
9:50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltiness, wherewith
will all of you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one
with another.
