1    ^noteAnd he said to them, Amen I say to you, that there be some of them that stand here, vvhich shal not tast of death, vntil they see the kingdom of God comming in povver.

2    ^noteAnd after six daies Iesvs taketh Peter and Iames and Iohn: and bringeth them alone into a high mountaine apart, and vvas transfigured before them.

3   And his garments vvere made glistering and vvhite excedingly as snovv, the like vvhereof a fuller cannot make vvhite vpon the earth.

4   And there appeared to them ^note09Q0631 Elias vvith Moyses: and they vvere talking vvith Iesvs.

5   And Peter ansvvering, said to Iesvs, Rabbi, it is good for vs to be here: and let vs make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moyses, and one for Elias.

6   For he knevv not vvhat he said: for they vvere frighted vvith feare:

7   and there vvas a cloude ouershadovving them, and a voice came out of the cloude, saying, This is my Sonne most deere: heare ye him.

8   And immediatly looking about, they savv no man any more but Iesvs only vvith them.

9   And as they desc&ebar;ded from the mountaine, he commaunded them that they should not tel any man vvhat things they had seen: but vvhen the Sonne of man shal be risen againe from the dead.

10   And they kept in the vvord vvith them selues: questioning together vvhat that should be, when he shal be risen from the dead.

11   And they asked him, saying, what say the Pharisees then and the Scribes, that ^note Elias must come first?

12   Who ansvvering said to them, Elias vvhen he commeth first, shal restore al things: and ^note hovv it is vvritten of the Sonne of man, that he shal suffer many things and be contemned.

13   But I say to you that09Q0632 Elias also is come (and they haue done to him vvhatsoeuer they vvould) as it is vvritten of him.

14   And ^note c&obar;ming to his Disciples, he savv a great multitude about them, and the Scribes questioning vvith them.

15   And forthvvith al the people seeing Iesvs, vvas astonied, and much afraid: and running to him, saluted him.

16   And he asked them, what do you question of among you? ^note

17   And one of the multitude ansvvering, said, Maister, I haue brought my sonne to thee, hauing a dumme spirit,

18   Who, vvheresoeuer he taketh him, dasheth him, and he fometh, and gnasheth vvith the teeth, and vvithereth: and I spake to thy Disciples to cast him out, and they could not.

19   Who ansvvering them,

said, O incredulous generation, hovv long shal I be vvith you? hovv long shal I suffer you? bring him vnto me.

20   And they brought him. And vvhen he had seen him, immediatly the spirit troubled him: and being throvven vpon the ground, he tumbled foming.

21   And he asked his father, Hovv long time is it since this hath chaunced vnto him? But he said, From his infancie:

22   and often times hath he cast him into fire and into vvaters, to destroy him. but if thou canst any thing, helpe vs, hauing compassion on vs.

23   And Iesus said to him, if thou canst beleeue, al things are possible to him that beleeueth.

24   And incontinent the father of the boy crying out, vvith teares said, I do beleeue Lord: helpe my incredulity.

25   And vvhen Iesvs savv the people running together, he threatened the vncleane spirit, saying to him, Deafe and dumme spirit, I commaunde thee, goe out of him, and enter not any more into him.

26   And crying out, and greatly tearing him, he vvent out of him, and he became as dead, so that many said, That he is dead.

27   But Iesvs holding his hand, lifted him vp: and he rose.

28   And vvhen he vvas entred into the house, his Disciples secretely asked him, why could not vve cast him out?

29   And he said to them, This kinde can goe out by nothing, but ^note by prayer and fasting. &cross4;

30   And ^note departing thence they passed by Galilee, neither vvould he that any man should knovv.

31   And he taught his Disciples, and said to them, That the Sonne of man shal be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shal kil him, and being killed the third day he shal rise againe.

32   But they knevv not the vvord: and they vvere afraid to aske him.

33   And ^note they came to Capharnaum. Vvho, vvhen he vvas in the house, asked them, what did you treate of in the vvay?

34   But they held their peace. for in the vvay they had disputed among them selues, vvhich of them should be the greater.

35   And sitting dovvne, he called the Tvvelue, and saith to them, If any man vvil be first, he shal be last of al, and the minister of al.

36   And taking a childe, he set him in the middes of them. Vvhom vvhen he had embraced, he said to them,

37   Vvhosoeuer shal receiue one of such children in my name, receiueth me. and vvhosoeuer shal receiue me, receiueth not me, but him that sent me.

38    ^noteIohn ansvvered him, saying, Maister vve savv one casting out deuils09Q0633 in thy name, vvho folovveth not vs, and vve

prohibited him.

39   But Iesvs said, Do not prohibit him. for there is no man that doth a miracle in my name, and can soone speake il of me.

40   for he that is not against you, is for you.

41   For vvhosoeuer shal giue you to drinke a cuppe of vvater in my name, because you are Christs: amen I say to you, he shal not lose his ^note revvard.

42   And vvhosoeuer shal ^note scandalize one of these litle ones beleeuing in me: it is good for him rather if a milstone vvere put about his necke, and he vvere cast into the sea.

43   And if thy hand scandalize thee, cut it of. it is good for thee to enter into life, maimed, then hauing tvvo hands to goe into hel, into the fire vnquen cheable,

44   vvhere their vvorme dieth not, and the fire quencheth not.

45   And if thy foote scandalize thee, choppe it of. it is good for thee to enter into life euerlasting, lame, rather then hauing tvvo feete, to be cast into the hel of vnquencheable fire,

46   vvhere their vvorme dieth not, and the fire quencheth not.

47   And if thine eye scandalize thee, cast it out. it is good for thee vvith one eve to enter into the kingdom of God, rather then hauing tvvo eies, to be cast into the hel of fire,

48   vvhere their vvorme dieth not, and the fire quencheth not.

49   For euery one shal be salted vvith fire: and ^note euery victime shal be salted vvith salt.

50   Salt is good. but if the salt shal be vnseasoned: vvhervvith vvil you season it? Haue salt in you, and haue peace among you.
