MT-17:1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John
his brother,
and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
MT-17:2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did
shine as the sun,
and his raiment was white as the light.
MT-17:3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias
talking with
him.
MT-17:4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is
good for us to
be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one
for thee, and
one for Moses, and one for Elias.
MT-17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed
them: and
behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved
Son, in whom I
am well pleased; hear ye him.
MT-17:6 And when the disciples heard [it], they fell on their
face, and were
sore afraid.
MT-17:7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and
be not afraid.
MT-17:8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man,
save Jesus
only.
MT-17:9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged
them, saying,
Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again
from the dead.
MT-17:10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the
scribes that
Elias must first come?
MT-17:11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly
shall first come,
and restore all things.
MT-17:12 But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and
they knew him
not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise
shall also the Son
of man suffer of them.
MT-17:13 Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them
of John the
Baptist.
MT-17:14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came
to him a
[certain] man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
MT-17:15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is a lunatic, and
sore vexed: for
ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
MT-17:16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not
cure him.
MT-17:17 Then 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.
MT-17:18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of
him: and the
child was cured from that very hour.
MT-17:19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why
could not we
cast him out?
MT-17:20 And 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.
MT-17:21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and
fasting.
MT-17:22 And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them,
The Son of man
shall be betrayed into the hands of men:
MT-17:23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be
raised again.
And they were exceeding sorry.
MT-17:24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that
received tribute
[money] came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay
tribute?
MT-17:25 He 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?
MT-17:26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto
him, Then are
the children free.
MT-17:27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou
to the sea, and
cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and
when thou hast
opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take,
and give unto
them for me and thee.
