Mark 9:2-32

²And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, and leadeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them.

³And his garments became glistening, very white, so as no fuller on earth can whiten.

⁴And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.

⁵And Peter answering saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

⁶For he knew not what to answer; for they were struck with terror.

⁷And there came a cloud overshadowing them; and a voice came out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son; hear him.

⁸And suddenly looking round, they no longer saw any one but Jesus alone with themselves.

⁹And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them to give no account of what they had seen to any one, till the Son of man should have risen from the dead.

¹⁰And they kept these words in mind, questioning one another what rising from the dead might mean.

¹¹And they asked him, saying, How is it that the Pharisees and scribes say that Elijah must come first?

¹²And he said to them, Elijah cometh first, and restoreth all things. And how hath it been written of the Son of man? that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

¹³But I say to you that Elijah hath come, and they have done to him whatever they would; as it hath been written concerning him.

¹⁴And coming to the disciples, they saw a great multitude about them, and scribes debating with them.

¹⁵And immediately the whole multitude on seeing him was struck with awe, and running to him, saluted him.

¹⁶And he asked them, About what are ye debating with them?

¹⁷And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit.

¹⁸And wherever it seizeth hold of him, it throweth him down; and he foameth and gnasheth his teeth; and he pineth away. And I spoke to thy disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.

¹⁹He answereth and saith to them, O unbelieving generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.

²⁰And they brought him to him. And as soon as he saw him, the spirit convulsed him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed, foaming.

²¹And he asked his father, How long hath it been thus with him? And he said, From a child;

²²and it hath often cast him both into fire, and into water, to destroy him; but if thou art able to do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

²³Jesus said to him, If thou art able? All things are possible for him that believeth.

²⁴The father of the child immediately cried out and said, I believe; help thou my unbelief.

²⁵And Jesus seeing that the multitude came running together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

²⁶And uttering a cry, and convulsing him much, it came out of him. And he became as one dead; so that very many said, He is dead.

²⁷But Jesus, taking hold of his hand, raised him, and he stood up.

²⁸And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast it out?

²⁹And he said to them, This kind can go out by nothing, except by prayer.

³⁰And departing thence, they passed through Galilee; and he would not that any one should know it.

³¹For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he hath been put to death, after three days he will rise again.

³²But they understood not what he said, and were afraid to ask him.
