Luke 9:3-31

³And he said to them, Nothing take ye in the way, neither a staff or a rod, nor scrip, neither bread, nor money, and neither have ye two coats.

⁴And into whatever house ye enter, dwell ye there, and go ye not out from thence.

⁵And whoever receive not you or whoever shall not receive you, go ye out of that city, and shake ye off the powder of your feet into witnessing on them.

⁶And they went forth, and went about by castles, preaching or evangelizing and healing everywhere.

⁷And Herod the tetrarch or prince of the fourth part, heard all the things that were done of him, and he doubted, for that it was said of some men, that John was risen from death;

⁸and of some men, that Elijah had appeared; but of others, that one of the old prophets was risen.

⁹And Herod said, I have beheaded John; and who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.

¹⁰And the apostles turned again, and told to him all things that they had done. And he took them, and went beside into a desert place, that is called Bethsaida.

¹¹And when the people knew this, they followed him. And he received them, and spake to them of the kingdom of God; and he healed them that had need of cure.

¹²And the day began to bow down, and the twelve came, and said to him, Leave the people, that they go, and turn into the castles and towns, that be about, that they find meat, for we be here in a desert place.

¹³And he said to them, Give ye to them to eat. And they said, There be not to us more than five loaves and two fishes, but peradventure that we go, and buy meats to all this people or for all the company.

¹⁴And the men were almost five thousand. And he said to his disciples, Make ye them to sit to meat by companies, a fifty together.

¹⁵And they did so, and they made all men sit to or at the meat.

¹⁶And when he had taken the five loaves and two fishes, he beheld into heaven, and blessed them, and brake, and dealed to his disciples, that they should set or put forth before the companies.

¹⁷And all men ate, and were full-filled or were filled; and that that left to them of broken meats was taken up, twelve coffins.

¹⁸And it was done, when he was alone praying, his disciples were with him, and he asked them, and said, Whom say the people that I am?

¹⁹And they answered, and said, John Baptist, others say Elijah, and or but others say, one prophet of the former is risen.

²⁰And he said to them, But whom say ye that I am? Simon Peter answered, and said, The Christ of God.

²¹And he blaming them, commanded them that they should say to no man,

²²and said these things, For it behooveth man’s Son to suffer many things, and to be reproved of the elder men, and of the princes of priests, and of the scribes, and to be slain, and the third day to rise again.

²³And he said to all men, If any man will come after me, deny he himself, and take he his cross every day, and pursue he me.

²⁴For he that will make his life safe shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for me, shall make it safe.

²⁵And what profiteth it to a man, if he win all the world, and lose himself, and do impairing of himself or to himself.

²⁶For whoso shameth me and my words, man’s Son shall shame him, when he cometh in his majesty, and of the Father’s, and of the holy angels.

²⁷And I say to you, verily there be some standing here, which shall not taste death, till they see the realm of God.

²⁸And it was done after these words almost eight days, and he took Peter and James and John, and he ascended into an hill, to pray.

²⁹And while he prayed, the like-ness of his face was changed, and his clothing was white shining.

³⁰And lo! two men spake with him, and Moses and Elijah

³¹were seen in majesty; and they said his going out, which he should fulfill in Jerusalem.
