Luke 9:31-62

³¹and Moises and Helie weren seen in maieste; and thei sayn his goyng out, which he schulde fulfille in Jerusalem.

³²And Petre, and thei that weren with hym, weren heuy of sleep, and thei wakynge saien his majeste, and the twey men that stoden with hym.

³³And it was don, whanne thei departiden fro hym, Petir seide to Jhesu, Comaundour, it is good that we be here, and make we here thre tabernaclis, oon to thee, and oon to Moises, and oon to Elie. And he wiste not what he schulde seie.

³⁴But while he spak these thingis, a cloude was maad, and ouerschadewide hem; and thei dredden, whanne thei entriden in to the cloude.

³⁵And a vois was maad out of the cloude, and seide, This is my derworth sone, here ye hym.

³⁶And while the vois was maad, Jhesu was foundun aloone. And thei weren stille, and to no man seiden in tho daies ouyt of tho thingis, that thei hadden seyn.

³⁷But it was doon in the dai suynge, whanne thei camen doun of the hil, myche puple mette hem.

³⁸And lo! a man of the cumpany criede, and seide, Maister, Y biseche thee, biholde my sone, for Y haue no mo; and lo!

³⁹a spirit takith hym, and sudenli he crieth, and hurtlith doun, and to-drawith hym with fome, and vnneth he goith awei al to-drawynge hym.

⁴⁰And Y preiede thi disciplis, that thei schulden caste hym out, and thei myyten not.

⁴¹And Jhesus answerde and seide to hem, A! vnfeithful generacioun and weiward, hou long schal Y be at you, and suffre you? brynge hidur thi sone.

⁴²And whanne he cam nyy, the deuel hurtlide hym doun, and to-braidide hym. And Jhesus blamyde `the vnclene spirit, and heelide the child, and yeldide him to his fadir.

⁴³And alle men wondriden greetli in the gretnesse of God. And whanne alle men wondriden in alle thingis that he dide, he seide to hise disciplis,

⁴⁴Putte ye these wordis in youre hertis, for it is to come, that mannus sone be bitrayed in to the hondis of men.

⁴⁵And thei knewen not this word, and it was hid bifor hem, that thei feeliden it not; and thei dredden to axe hym of this word.

⁴⁶But a thouyt entride in to hem, who of hem schulde be grettest.

⁴⁷And Jhesu, seynge the thouytis of the herte of hem, took a child, and settide hym bisidis hym;

⁴⁸and seide to hem, Who euer resseyueth this child in my name, resseyueth me; and who euer resseyueth me, resseiueth him that sente me; for he that is leest among you alle, is the grettest.

⁴⁹And Joon answeride and seide, Comaundoure, we sayn a man castynge out feendis in thi name, and we han forbedun hym, for he sueth not thee with vs.

⁵⁰And Jhesus seide to hym, Nyle ye forbede, for he that is not ayens vs, is for vs.

⁵¹And it was don, whanne the daies of his takyng vp weren fulfillid, he settide faste his face, to go to Jerusalem,

⁵²and sente messangeris bifor his siyt. And thei yeden, and entriden in to a citee of Samaritans, to make redi to hym.

⁵³And thei resseyueden not hym, for the face `was of hym goynge in to Jerusalem.

⁵⁴And whanne James and Joon, hise disciplis, seyn, thei seiden, Lord, wolt thou that we seien, that fier come doun fro heuene, and waste hem?

⁵⁵And he turnede, and blamyde hem, and seide, Ye witen not, whos spiritis ye ben;

⁵⁶for mannus sone cam not to leese mennus soulis, but to saue. And thei wenten in to another castel.

⁵⁷And it was don, whanne thei walkeden in the weie, a man seide to hym, Y schal sue thee, whidur euer thou go.

⁵⁸And Jhesus seide to hym, Foxis han dennes, and briddis of the eir han nestis, but mannus sone hath not where he reste his heed.

⁵⁹And he seide to another, Sue thou me. And he seide, Lord, suffre me first to go, and birie my fadir.

⁶⁰And Jhesus seide to hym, Suffre that deede men birie hir deede men; but go thou, and telle the kyngdom of God.

⁶¹And another seide, Lord, Y schal sue thee, but first suffre me to leeue `alle thingis that ben at hoom.

⁶²And Jhesus seide to hym, No man that puttith his hoond to the plouy, and biholdynge bacward, is able to the rewme of God.
