Mark 9:7-38

⁷And there was made a cloud overshadowing them; and a voice came out of the cloud, and said, This is my most dearworthy Son, hear ye him (or listen to him).

⁸And anon they beheld about, and saw no more any man, no but Jesus only with them. (And at once they looked about, and saw no one there, except Jesus with them.)

⁹And when they came down from the hill, he commanded them, that they should not tell to any man those things that they had seen, but when (or until) man’s Son hath risen again from death, +or no but when (or until) man’s Son hath risen from (the) dead.

¹⁰And they held the word at themselves (or And they held the word within themselves), seeking what this should be, when he had risen again from death or when he hath risen from (the) dead.

¹¹And they asked him, and said, What then say the Pharisees and the scribes, that it behooveth Elias to come first. (And they asked him, Why then do the Pharisees and the scribes say, that it behooveth Elijah to come first.)

¹²And he answered, and said to them, When Elias cometh (or When Elijah shall come), he shall first restore all things; and as it is written of man’s Son, that he suffer many things, and be despised.

¹³And I say to you that Elias is come, and they did to him whatever things they would, as it is written of him. (And I tell you that Elijah hath come, and they did whatever they wanted to do to him, as it is written about him.)

¹⁴And he coming to his disciples, saw a great company about them, and the scribes disputing with them.

¹⁵And anon all the people seeing Jesus, was astonied, and they dreaded; and they running to (him), greeted him. (And at once all the people seeing Jesus, were astonished, and they had fearful reverence; and running to him, they greeted him.)

¹⁶And he asked them, What (thing) dispute ye among you?

¹⁷And one of the company answered, and said, Master, (or Teacher), I have brought to thee my son, that hath a dumb spirit;

¹⁸and wherever he taketh him, he hurtleth him down, and he foameth, and beateth together with (his) teeth, and waxeth dry (or and then groweth dry). And I said to thy disciples, that they should cast him out, and they might not.

¹⁹And he answered to them, and said, A! thou generation out of belief, or O! thou generation unbelieveful, (or O thou unbelieving, or unfaithful, generation!), how long shall I be among you, how long shall I suffer you? Bring ye him to me.

²⁰And they brought him. And when he had seen him, anon the spirit troubled him (or at once the spirit troubled him); and he was thrown down to the ground, and wallowed, and foamed.

²¹And he asked his father, How long is it, since this hath befallen to him? And he said, From childhood;

²²and oft he hath put him into the fire, and into water, to lose him (or to destroy him); but if thou mayest (do) anything, help us, and have mercy on us.

²³And Jesus said to him, If thou mayest believe (or If thou can believe), all things be possible to a man that believeth.

²⁴And anon (or And at once) the father of the child cried with tears, and said, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

²⁵And when Jesus had seen the people running together, he menaced the unclean spirit (or he threatened the unclean spirit), and said to him, Thou deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee, go out from him, and enter no more into him.

²⁶And he crying, and much wrenching him, went out from him; and he was made as dead, so that many said, that he was dead.

²⁷And Jesus held his hand, and lifted him up; and he rose.

²⁸And when he had entered into an house, his disciples asked him privily, Why might not we cast him out? (And when he had entered into a house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could we not throw him out?)

²⁹And he said to them, This kind in nothing may go out or This kind may not go out in anything, no but in prayer and fasting. (And he said to them, This kind cannot be made to go out, except by prayer and fasting.)

³⁰And they went from thence, and went forth into Galilee; and they would not, that any man knew, or and he would not, that any man know, (or and he did not want, that anyone knew that he was there).

³¹And he taught his disciples, and said to them, For man’s Son shall be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall slay him, and he slain shall rise again on the third day.

³²And they knew not the (meaning of the) word(s), and dreaded to ask him (or and feared to ask him).

³³And they came to Capernaum. And when they were in the house, he asked them, What treated ye in the way? (or What did ye discuss on the way?)

³⁴And they were still; for they disputed among themselves in the way, who of them should be the greatest. (And they were silent; for they had argued among themselves on the way, who of them was the greatest.)

³⁵And he sat, and called the twelve, and said to them, If any man will be the first among you, he shall be the last of all, and the minister or the servant of all.

³⁶And he took a child, and set him in the middle or in the midst of them; and when he had embraced him, he said to them,

³⁷Whoever receiveth one of such children in my name, he receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, he receiveth not me alone, but him that sent me.

³⁸John answered to him, and said, Master, we saw one casting out fiends in thy name, which (pur)sueth not us, and we have forbidden him. (John answered to him, and said, Teacher, we saw one throwing out devils and demons in thy name, and he followeth not us, and we have forbidden him.)
