Luke 9:31-62

³¹were seen in (their) majesty; and they said (of) his going out, which he should fulfill in Jerusalem. (were seen in their glory; and they spoke of his death, yea, of his destiny, which he would fulfill in Jerusalem.)

³²And Peter, and they that were with him, were heavy of sleep, or were grieved, or heavied, with sleep, and they waking saw his majesty, and the two men that stood with him, (or but awakening they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him).

³³And it was done, when they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, Commander, it is good that we be here, and make we here three tabernacles, one to thee, and one to Moses, and one to Elias. And he knew not what he should say. (And it was done, when they had left him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here, and we shall make here three tents, or three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. And he did not know what he should say.)

³⁴But while he spake these things, a cloud was made, and overshadowed them; and they dreaded (or and they feared), when they entered into the cloud.

³⁵And a voice was made out of the cloud, and said, This is my dearworthy Son, hear ye him (or listen to him).

³⁶And while the voice was made, Jesus was found alone. And they were still, and to no man said in those days any of those things, that they had seen, or And they held (their) peace, and said to no man in those days aught of those things that they had seen. (And after the voice was heard, Jesus was there alone. And they were silent, and did not tell anyone in those days, about anything that they had seen.)

³⁷But it was done in the day (pur)suing, when they came down of the hill, much people met them. (But it was done on the following day, when they came down from the hill, that many people met them.)

³⁸And lo! a man of the company cried, and said, Master, I beseech thee, behold my son, for I have no more; (And behold! a man among the people cried, and said, Teacher, I beseech thee, look at my son, for I have no other child;)

³⁹and lo! a spirit taketh him, and suddenly he crieth, and hurtleth him down, and draweth him with foam or with froth, and scarcely he goeth away (before) drawing him all to pieces.

⁴⁰And I prayed thy disciples, that they should cast him out, and they might not. (And I beseeched thy disciples, that they should throw out the spirit, but they could not do it.)

⁴¹And Jesus answered and said to them, A! unfaithful generation and wayward (or O unfaithful and wayward generation!), how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? bring hither thy son.

⁴²And when he came nigh, the devil hurtled him down, and wrenched him. And Jesus blamed the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and yielded him (back) to his father, (or And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, yea, the demon, and healed the child, and gave him back to his father).

⁴³And all men wondered greatly in the greatness of God. And when all men wondered in all (the) things that he did, he said to his disciples, (And everyone wondered greatly at the greatness of God. And when everyone wondered at all the things that he did, he said to his disciples,)

⁴⁴Put ye these words in your hearts, for it is to come, that man’s Son be betrayed into the hands of men.

⁴⁵And they knew not this word, and it was hid before them, that they feeled it not; and they dreaded to ask him of this word. (But they did not know what this meant, and it was hidden to them, so that they could not perceive or understand it; and they feared to ask him about these words.)

⁴⁶But a thought entered into them, who of them should be (the) greatest.

⁴⁷And Jesus, seeing the thoughts of the heart(s) of them, (or And Jesus, knowing the thoughts in their hearts), took a child, and setted him beside him;

⁴⁸and said to them, Whoever receiveth this child in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me; for he that is (the) least among you all, is the greatest.

⁴⁹And John answered and said, Commander, we saw a man casting out fiends in thy name, and we have forbidden him, for he (pur)sueth not thee with us. (And John said, Master, we saw a man throwing out devils and demons in thy name, and we have forbidden him, for he followeth not thee with us.)

⁵⁰And Jesus said to him, Do not ye forbid (him), for he that is not against us, is for us.

⁵¹And it was done, when the days of his taking up were fulfilled (or when it would soon be the day that he would be taken up into heaven), he set fast his face, to go to Jerusalem,

⁵²and sent messengers before his sight. And they went, and entered into a city of Samaritans, to make ready to him (or to prepare it for him).

⁵³And they received not him, for the face of him was going into Jerusalem.

⁵⁴And when James and John, his disciples, saw (that), they said, Lord, wilt thou that we say, that fire come down from heaven, and waste them, as Elias did? (And when James and John, his disciples, saw that, they said, Lord, desirest thou that we command, that fire come down from heaven, and destroy them, like Elijah did?)

⁵⁵And he turned, and blamed them (or and rebuked them), and said, Ye know not, whose spirits ye be;

⁵⁶for man’s Son came not to lose men’s souls, but to save them. And they went into another castle. (for man’s Son came not to destroy men’s souls, but to savethem. And so they went to another village.)

⁵⁷And it was done, when they walked in the way, a man said to him, I shall (pur)sue thee, whither ever thou shalt go. (And it was done, when they walked on the way, a man said to him, I shall follow thee, wherever thou shalt go.)

⁵⁸And Jesus said to him, Foxes have dens or ditches, and (the) birds of the air have nests, but man’s Son hath not where he shall rest his head.

⁵⁹And he said to another, (Pur)Sue thou me. And he said, Lord, suffer me first to go, and bury my father. (And he said to another, Follow me. And he said, Lord, first allow me to go, and bury my father.)

⁶⁰And Jesus said to him, Suffer that dead men bury their dead men; but go thou, and tell (everyone about) the kingdom of God. (And Jesus said to him, Allow the dead to bury their dead; but thou go, and tell everyone about the Kingdom of God.)

⁶¹And another said, Lord, I shall (pur)sue thee, but first suffer me to leave (in peace) all things that be at home or but first suffer me to tell to them that be at home. (And another said, Lord, I shall follow thee, but first allow me to say good-bye to all who be at home.)

⁶²And Jesus said to him, No man that putteth his hand to the plough, and beholding backward, is able to the kingdom of God. (And Jesus said to him, No man who putteth his hand to the plow, and looking backward, is fit for the Kingdom of God.)
