WEB·Mark 9

¹He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see God’s Kingdom come with power.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G3004^(G5707) unto them^G846, Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 there be^G1526^(G5748) some^G5100 of them that stand^G2476^(G5761) here^G5602, which^G3748 shall^G1089 not^G3364 taste^G1089^(G5667) of death^G2288, till^G2193^G302 they have seen^G1492^(G5632) the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 come^G2064^(G5756) with^G1722 power^G1411.

² After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.

KJVAnd^G2532 after^G3326 six^G1803 days^G2250 Jesus^G2424 taketh^G3880^(G5719) with him Peter^G4074, and^G2532 James^G2385, and^G2532 John^G2491, and^G2532 leadeth^G399 them^G846 up^G399^(G5719) into^G1519 an high^G5308 mountain^G3735 apart^G2596^G2398 by themselves^G3441: and^G2532 he was transfigured^G3339^(G5681) before^G1715 them^G846.

³ His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

KJVAnd^G2532 his^G846 raiment^G2440 became^G1096^(G5633) shining^G4744^(G5723), exceeding^G3029 white^G3022 as^G5613 snow^G5510; so as^G3634 no^G3756 fuller^G1102 on^G1909 earth^G1093 can^G1410^(G5736) white^G3021^(G5658) them.

⁴ Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.

KJVAnd^G2532 there appeared^G3700^(G5681) unto them^G846 Elias^G2243 with^G4862 Moses^G3475: and^G2532 they were^G2258^(G5713) talking^G4814^(G5723) with Jesus^G2424.

⁵ Peter answered Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

KJVAnd^G2532 Peter^G4074 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G3004^(G5719) to Jesus^G2424, Master^G4461, it is^G2076^(G5748) good^G2570 for us^G2248 to be^G1511^(G5750) here^G5602: and^G2532 let us make^G4160^(G5661) three^G5140 tabernacles^G4633; one^G3391 for thee^G4671, and^G2532 one^G3391 for Moses^G3475, and^G2532 one^G3391 for Elias^G2243.

⁶ For he didn’t know what to say, for they were very afraid.

KJVFor^G1063 he wist^G1492^(G5715) not^G3756 what^G5101 to say^G2980^(G5661); for^G1063 they were sore^G2258^(G5713) afraid^G1630.

⁷ A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”

KJVAnd^G2532 there was^G1096^(G5633) a cloud^G3507 that overshadowed^G1982^(G5723) them^G846: and^G2532 a voice^G5456 came^G2064^(G5627) out of^G1537 the cloud^G3507, saying^G3004^(G5723), This^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) my^G3450 beloved^G27 Son^G5207: hear^G191^(G5720) him^G846.

⁸ Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them any more, except Jesus only.

KJVAnd^G2532 suddenly^G1819, when they had looked round about^G4017^(G5671), they saw^G1492^(G5627) no man^G3762 any more^G3765, save^G235 Jesus^G2424 only^G3441 with^G3326 themselves^G1438.

⁹ As they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no one what things they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

KJVAnd^G1161 as they^G846 came down^G2597^(G5723) from^G575 the mountain^G3735, he charged^G1291^(G5668) them^G846 that^G2443 they should tell^G1334^(G5667) no man^G3367 what things^G3739 they had seen^G1492^(G5627), till^G1508^G3752 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 were risen^G450^(G5632) from^G1537 the dead^G3498.

¹⁰ They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the “rising from the dead” meant.

KJVAnd^G2532 they kept^G2902^(G5656) that saying^G3056 with^G4314 themselves^G1438, questioning one with another^G4802^(G5723) what^G5101 the rising^G450^(G5629) from^G1537 the dead^G3498 should mean^G2076^(G5748).

¹¹ They asked him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

KJVAnd^G2532 they asked^G1905^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Why^G3754 say^G3004^(G5719) the scribes^G1122 that^G3754 Elias^G2243 must^G1163^(G5748) first^G4412 come^G2064^(G5629)?

¹² He said to them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. How is it written about the Son of Man, that he should suffer many things and be despised?

KJVAnd^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) and told^G2036^(G5627) them^G846, Elias^G2243 verily^G3303 cometh^G2064^(G5631) first^G4412, and restoreth^G600^(G5719) all things^G3956; and^G2532 how^G4459 it is written^G1125^(G5769) of^G1909 the Son^G5207 of man^G444, that^G2443 he must suffer^G3958^(G5632) many things^G4183, and^G2532 be set at nought^G1847^(G5686).

¹³ But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him.”

KJVBut^G235 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 Elias^G2243 is^G2064 indeed^G2532 come^G2064^(G5754), and^G2532 they have done^G4160^(G5656) unto him^G846 whatsoever^G3745 they listed^G2309^(G5656), as^G2531 it is written^G1125^(G5769) of^G1909 him^G846.

¹⁴ Coming to the disciples, he saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning them.

KJVAnd^G2532 when he came^G2064^(G5631) to^G4314 his disciples^G3101, he saw^G1492^(G5627) a great^G4183 multitude^G3793 about^G4012 them^G846, and^G2532 the scribes^G1122 questioning^G4802^(G5723) with them^G846.

¹⁵ Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.

KJVAnd^G2532 straightway^G2112 all^G3956 the people^G3793, when they beheld^G1492^(G5631) him^G846, were greatly amazed^G1568^(G5681), and^G2532 running to^G4370^(G5723) him saluted^G782^(G5711) him^G846.

¹⁶ He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”

KJVAnd^G2532 he asked^G1905^(G5656) the scribes^G1122, What^G5101 question ye^G4802^(G5719) with^G4314 them^G846?

¹⁷ One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

KJVAnd^G2532 one^G1520 of^G1537 the multitude^G3793 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), Master^G1320, I have brought^G5342^(G5656) unto^G4314 thee^G4571 my^G3450 son^G5207, which hath^G2192^(G5723) a dumb^G216 spirit^G4151;

¹⁸ and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”

KJVAnd^G2532 wheresoever^G3699^G302 he taketh^G2638^(G5632) him^G846, he teareth^G4486^(G5719) him^G846: and^G2532 he foameth^G875^(G5719), and^G2532 gnasheth^G5149^(G5719) with his^G846 teeth^G3599, and^G2532 pineth away^G3583^(G5743): and^G2532 I spake^G2036^(G5627) to thy^G4675 disciples^G3101 that^G2443 they should cast^G1544 him^G846 out^G1544^(G5632); and^G2532 they could^G2480^(G5656) not^G3756.

¹⁹ He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

KJVHe answereth^G611^(G5679) him^G846, and^G1161 saith^G3004^(G5719), O^G5599 faithless^G571 generation^G1074, how long^G2193^G4219 shall I be^G2071^(G5704) with^G4314 you^G5209? how long^G2193^G4219 shall I suffer^G430^(G5695) you^G5216? bring^G5342^(G5720) him^G846 unto^G4314 me^G3165.

²⁰ They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.

KJVAnd^G2532 they brought^G5342^(G5656) him^G846 unto^G4314 him^G846: and^G2532 when he saw^G1492^(G5631) him^G846, straightway^G2112 the spirit^G4151 tare^G4682^(G5656) him^G846; and^G2532 he fell^G4098^(G5631) on^G1909 the ground^G1093, and wallowed^G2947^(G5709) foaming^G875^(G5723).

²¹ He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has been happening to him?” He said, “From childhood.

KJVAnd^G2532 he asked^G1905^(G5656) his^G846 father^G3962, How long^G4214 is it^G2076^(G5748) ago^G5550 since^G5613 this^G5124 came^G1096^(G5754) unto him^G846? And^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627), Of a child^G3812.

²² Often it has cast him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”

KJVAnd^G2532 ofttimes^G4178 it hath cast^G906^(G5627) him^G846 into^G2532^G1519 the fire^G4442, and^G2532 into^G1519 the waters^G5204, to^G2443 destroy^G622^(G5661) him^G846: but^G235 if^G1536 thou canst^G1410^(G5736) do any thing^G1536, have compassion^G4697^(G5679) on^G1909 us^G2248, and help^G997^(G5657) us^G2254.

²³ Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

KJV^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, If^G1487 thou canst^G1410^(G5736) believe^G4100^(G5658), all things^G3956 are possible^G1415 to him^G846 that believeth^G4100^(G5723).

²⁴ Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”

KJVAnd^G2532 straightway^G2112 the father^G3962 of the child^G3813 cried out^G2896^(G5660), and said^G3004^(G5707) with^G3326 tears^G1144, Lord^G2962, I believe^G4100^(G5719); help thou^G997^(G5720) mine^G3450 unbelief^G570.

²⁵ When Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again!”

KJVWhen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 saw^G1492^(G5631) that^G3754 the people^G3793 came running together^G1998^(G5719), he rebuked^G2008^(G5656) the foul^G169 spirit^G4151, saying^G3004^(G5723) unto him^G846, Thou dumb^G216 and^G2532 deaf^G2974 spirit^G4151, I^G1473 charge^G2004^(G5719) thee^G4671, come^G1831^(G5628) out of^G1537 him^G846, and^G2532 enter^G1525^(G5632) no more^G3371 into^G1519 him^G846.

²⁶ After crying out and convulsing him greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead, so much that most of them said, “He is dead.”

KJVAnd^G2532 the spirit cried^G2896^(G5660), and^G2532 rent^G4682^(G5660) him^G846 sore^G4183, and came out of him^G1831^(G5627): and^G2532 he was^G1096^(G5633) as^G5616 one dead^G3498; insomuch^G5620 that^G3754 many^G4183 said^G3004^(G5721), He is dead^G599^(G5627).

²⁷ But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him up; and he arose.

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 took^G2902^(G5660) him^G846 by the hand^G5495, and lifted^G1453 him^G846 up^G1453^(G5656); and^G2532 he arose^G450^(G5627).

²⁸ When he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”

KJVAnd^G2532 when he^G846 was come^G1525^(G5631) into^G1519 the house^G3624, his^G846 disciples^G3101 asked^G1905^(G5707) him^G846 privately^G2596^G2398, Why^G3754 could^G1410^(G5675) not^G3756 we^G2249 cast^G1544 him^G846 out^G1544^(G5629)?

²⁹ He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing but by prayer and fasting.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, This^G5124 kind^G1085 can^G1410^(G5736) come forth^G1831^(G5629) by^G1722 nothing^G3762, but^G1508 by^G1722 prayer^G4335 and^G2532 fasting^G3521.

³⁰ They went out from there and passed through Galilee. He didn’t want anyone to know it,

KJVAnd^G2532 they departed^G1831^(G5631) thence^G1564, and passed^G3899^(G5711) through^G1223 Galilee^G1056; and^G2532 he would^G2309^(G5707) not^G3756 that^G2443 any man^G5100 should know^G1097^(G5632) it.

³¹ for he was teaching his disciples, and said to them, “The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, on the third day he will rise again.”

KJVFor^G1063 he taught^G1321^(G5707) his^G846 disciples^G3101, and^G2532 said^G3004^(G5707) unto them^G846,^G3754 The Son^G5207 of man^G444 is delivered^G3860^(G5743) into^G1519 the hands^G5495 of men^G444, and^G2532 they shall kill^G615^(G5692) him^G846; and^G2532 after that he is killed^G615^(G5685), he shall rise^G450^(G5698) the third^G5154 day^G2250.

³² But they didn’t understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.

KJVBut^G1161 they understood not^G50^(G5707) that saying^G4487, and^G2532 were afraid^G5399^(G5711) to ask^G1905^(G5658) him^G846.

³³ He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you arguing among yourselves on the way?”

KJVAnd^G2532 he came^G2064^(G5627) to^G1519 Capernaum^G2584: and^G2532 being^G1096^(G5637) in^G1722 the house^G3614 he asked^G1905^(G5707) them^G846, What^G5101 was it that ye disputed^G1260^(G5711) among^G4314 yourselves^G1438 by^G1722 the way^G3598?

³⁴ But they were silent, for they had disputed with one another on the way about who was the greatest.

KJVBut^G1161 they held their peace^G4623^(G5707): for^G1063 by^G1722 the way^G3598 they had disputed^G1256^(G5675) among^G4314 themselves^G240, who^G5101 should be the greatest^G3187.

³⁵ He sat down and called the twelve; and he said to them, “If any man wants to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he sat down^G2523^(G5660), and called^G5455^(G5656) the twelve^G1427, and^G2532 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, If any man^G1536 desire^G2309^(G5719) to be^G1511^(G5750) first^G4413, the same shall be^G2071^(G5704) last^G2078 of all^G3956, and^G2532 servant^G1249 of all^G3956.

³⁶ He took a little child and set him in the middle of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,

KJVAnd^G2532 he took^G2983^(G5631) a child^G3813, and set^G2476^(G5656) him^G846 in^G1722 the midst^G3319 of them^G846: and^G2532 when he had taken^G1723 him^G846 in his arms^G1723^(G5666), he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846,

³⁷ “Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, doesn’t receive me, but him who sent me.”

KJVWhosoever^G3739^G1437 shall receive^G1209^(G5667) one^G1520 of such^G5108 children^G3813 in^G1909 my^G3450 name^G3686, receiveth^G1209^(G5736) me^G1691: and^G2532 whosoever^G3739^G1437 shall receive^G1209^(G5667) me^G1691, receiveth^G1209^(G5736) not^G3756 me^G1691, but^G235 him that sent^G649^(G5660) me^G3165.

³⁸ John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone who doesn’t follow us casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow us.”

KJVAnd^G1161 John^G2491 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Master^G1320, we saw^G1492^(G5627) one^G5100 casting out^G1544^(G5723) devils^G1140 in thy^G4675 name^G3686, and^G3739 he followeth^G190^(G5719) not^G3756 us^G2254: and^G2532 we forbad^G2967^(G5656) him^G846, because^G3754 he followeth^G190^(G5719) not^G3756 us^G2254.

³⁹ But Jesus said, “Don’t forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627), Forbid^G2967^(G5720) him^G846 not^G3361: for^G1063 there is^G2076^(G5748) no man^G3762 which^G3739 shall do^G4160^(G5692) a miracle^G1411 in^G1909 my^G3450 name^G3686, that^G2532 can^G1410^(G5695) lightly^G5035 speak evil^G2551^(G5658) of me^G3165.

⁴⁰ For whoever is not against us is on our side.

KJVFor^G1063 he that^G3739 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 against^G2596 us^G2257 is^G2076^(G5748) on^G5228 our^G2257 part^G5228.

⁴¹ For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name because you are Christ’s, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.

KJVFor^G1063 whosoever^G3739^G302 shall give^G4222 you^G5209 a cup^G4221 of water^G5204 to drink^G4222^(G5661) in^G1722 my^G3450 name^G3686, because^G3754 ye belong^G2075^(G5748) to Christ^G5547, verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, he shall^G622 not^G3364 lose^G622^(G5661) his^G846 reward^G3408.

⁴² “Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he were thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.

⁴³ If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire,

WEB·Mark 8

¹In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to himself and said to them,

KJVIn^G1722 those^G1565 days^G2250 the multitude^G3793 being^G5607^(G5752) very great^G3827, and^G2532 having^G2192^(G5723) nothing^G3361^G5101 to eat^G5315^(G5632), Jesus^G2424 called^G4341^(G5666) his^G846 disciples^G3101 unto him, and saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846,

² “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat.

KJVI have compassion^G4697^(G5736) on^G1909 the multitude^G3793, because^G3754 they have^G4357 now^G2235 been^G4357^(G5719) with me^G3427 three^G5140 days^G2250, and^G2532 have^G2192^(G5719) nothing^G3756^G5101 to eat^G5315^(G5632):

³ If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.”

KJVAnd^G2532 if^G1437 I send^G630 them^G846 away^G630^(G5661) fasting^G3523 to^G1519 their own^G846 houses^G3624, they will faint^G1590^(G5701) by^G1722 the way^G3598: for^G1063 divers^G5100 of them^G846 came^G2240^(G5758) from far^G3113.

⁴ His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?”

KJVAnd^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, From whence^G4159 can^G1410^(G5695) a man^G5100 satisfy^G5526^(G5658) these^G5128 men with bread^G740 here^G5602 in^G1909 the wilderness^G2047?

⁵ He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he asked^G1905^(G5707) them^G846, How many^G4214 loaves^G740 have ye^G2192^(G5719)? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Seven^G2033.

⁶ He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.

KJVAnd^G2532 he commanded^G3853^(G5656) the people^G3793 to sit down^G377^(G5629) on^G1909 the ground^G1093: and^G2532 he took^G2983^(G5631) the seven^G2033 loaves^G740, and gave thanks^G2168^(G5660), and brake^G2806^(G5656), and^G2532 gave^G1325^(G5707) to his^G846 disciples^G3101 to^G2443 set before^G3908^(G5632) them; and^G2532 they did set them before^G3908^(G5656) the people^G3793.

⁷ They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.

KJVAnd^G2532 they had^G2192^(G5707) a few^G3641 small fishes^G2485: and^G2532 he blessed^G2127^(G5660), and commanded^G2036^(G5627) to set^G3908 them^G846 also^G2532 before^G3908^(G5629) them.

⁸ They ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.

KJVSo^G1161 they did eat^G5315^(G5627), and^G2532 were filled^G5526^(G5681): and^G2532 they took up^G142^(G5656) of the broken^G2801 meat that was left^G4051 seven^G2033 baskets^G4711.

⁹ Those who had eaten were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.

KJVAnd^G1161 they that had eaten^G5315^(G5631) were^G2258^(G5713) about^G5613 four thousand^G5070: and^G2532 he sent^G630 them^G846 away^G630^(G5656).

¹⁰ Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.

KJVAnd^G2532 straightway^G2112 he entered^G1684^(G5631) into^G1519 a ship^G4143 with^G3326 his^G846 disciples^G3101, and came^G2064^(G5627) into^G1519 the parts^G3313 of Dalmanutha^G1148.

¹¹ The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven and testing him.

KJVAnd^G2532 the Pharisees^G5330 came forth^G1831^(G5627), and^G2532 began^G756^(G5662) to question^G4802^(G5721) with him^G846, seeking^G2212^(G5723) of^G3844 him^G846 a sign^G4592 from^G575 heaven^G3772, tempting^G3985^(G5723) him^G846.

¹² He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he sighed deeply^G389^(G5660) in his^G846 spirit^G4151, and saith^G3004^(G5719), Why^G5101 doth^G1934 this^G3778 generation^G1074 seek after^G1934^(G5719) a sign^G4592? verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, There shall no^G1487 sign^G4592 be given^G1325^(G5701) unto this^G5026 generation^G1074.

¹³ He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.

KJVAnd^G2532 he left^G863^(G5631) them^G846, and entering^G1684^(G5631) into^G1519 the ship^G4143 again^G3825 departed^G565^(G5627) to^G1519 the other side^G4008.

¹⁴ They forgot to take bread; and they didn’t have more than one loaf in the boat with them.

KJVNow^G2532 the disciples had forgotten^G1950^(G5633) to take^G2983^(G5629) bread^G740, neither^G2532^G3756 had^G2192^(G5707) they in^G1722 the ship^G4143 with^G3326 them^G1438 more than^G1508 one^G1520 loaf^G740.

¹⁵ He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he charged^G1291^(G5710) them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Take heed^G3708^(G5720), beware^G991^(G5720) of^G575 the leaven^G2219 of the Pharisees^G5330, and^G2532 of the leaven^G2219 of Herod^G2264.

¹⁶ They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”

KJVAnd^G2532 they reasoned^G1260^(G5711) among^G4314 themselves^G240, saying^G3004^(G5723), It is because^G3754 we have^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 bread^G740.

¹⁷ Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Don’t you perceive yet or understand? Is your heart still hardened?

KJVAnd^G2532 when Jesus^G2424 knew^G1097^(G5631) it, he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Why^G5101 reason ye^G1260^(G5736), because^G3754 ye have^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 bread^G740? perceive ye^G3539^(G5719) not yet^G3768, neither^G3761 understand^G4920^(G5719)? have ye^G2192^(G5719) your^G5216 heart^G2588 yet^G2089 hardened^G4456^(G5772)?

¹⁸ Having eyes, don’t you see? Having ears, don’t you hear? Don’t you remember?

KJVHaving^G2192^(G5723) eyes^G3788, see ye^G991^(G5719) not^G3756? and^G2532 having^G2192^(G5723) ears^G3775, hear ye^G191^(G5719) not^G3756? and^G2532 do ye^G3421 not^G3756 remember^G3421^(G5719)?

¹⁹ When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”

KJVWhen^G3753 I brake^G2806^(G5656) the five^G4002 loaves^G740 among^G1519 five thousand^G4000, how many^G4214 baskets^G2894 full^G4134 of fragments^G2801 took ye up^G142^(G5656)? They say^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Twelve^G1427.

²⁰ “When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”

KJVAnd^G1161 when^G3753 the seven^G2033 among^G1519 four thousand^G5070, how many^G4214 baskets^G4711 full^G4138 of fragments^G2801 took ye up^G142^(G5656)? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Seven^G2033.

²¹ He asked them, “Don’t you understand yet?”

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G3004^(G5707) unto them^G846, How^G4459 is it that ye do^G4920 not^G3756 understand^G4920^(G5719)?

²² He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.

KJVAnd^G2532 he cometh^G2064^(G5736) to^G1519 Bethsaida^G966; and^G2532 they bring^G5342^(G5719) a blind man^G5185 unto him^G846, and^G2532 besought^G3870^(G5719) him^G846 to^G2443 touch^G680^(G5672) him^G846.

²³ He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spat on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.

KJVAnd^G2532 he took^G1949^(G5637) the blind man^G5185 by the hand^G5495, and led^G1806^(G5627) him^G846 out of^G1854 the town^G2968; and^G2532 when he had spit^G4429^(G5660) on^G1519 his^G846 eyes^G3659, and put^G2007^(G5631) his hands^G5495 upon him^G846, he asked^G1905^(G5707) him^G846 if^G1536 he saw^G991^(G5719) ought^G1536.

²⁴ He looked up, and said, “I see men, but I see them like walking trees.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he looked up^G308^(G5660), and said^G3004^(G5707),^G3754 I see^G991^(G5719) men^G444 as^G5613^G3708^(G5719) trees^G1186, walking^G4043^(G5723).

²⁵ Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.

KJVAfter^G1534 that he put^G2007^(G5656) his hands^G5495 again^G3825 upon^G1909 his^G846 eyes^G3788, and^G2532 made^G4160^(G5656) him^G846 look up^G308^(G5658): and^G2532 he was restored^G600^(G5681), and^G2532 saw^G1689^(G5656) every man^G537 clearly^G5081.

²⁶ He sent him away to his house, saying, “Don’t enter into the village, nor tell anyone in the village.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he sent^G649 him^G846 away^G649^(G5656) to^G1519 his^G846 house^G3624, saying^G3004^(G5723), Neither^G3366 go^G1525^(G5632) into^G1519 the town^G2968, nor^G3366 tell^G2036^(G5632) it to any^G5100 in^G1722 the town^G2968.

²⁷ Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 went out^G1831^(G5627), and^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101, into^G1519 the towns^G2968 of Caesarea^G2542 Philippi^G5376: and^G2532 by^G1722 the way^G3598 he asked^G1905^(G5707) his^G846 disciples^G3101, saying^G3004^(G5723) unto them^G846, Whom^G5101 do^G3004 men^G444 say^G3004^(G5719) that I^G3165 am^G1511^(G5750)?

²⁸ They told him, “John the Baptizer, and others say Elijah, but others, one of the prophets.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they answered^G611^(G5662), John^G2491 the Baptist^G910: but^G1161 some^G243 say, Elias^G2243; and^G2532 others^G243, One^G1520 of the prophets^G4396.

²⁹ He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he^G846 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, But^G1161 whom^G5101 say^G3004^(G5719) ye^G5210 that I^G3165 am^G1511^(G5750)? And^G1161 Peter^G4074 answereth^G611^(G5679) and saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Thou^G4771 art^G1488^(G5748) the Christ^G5547.

³⁰ He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.

KJVAnd^G2532 he charged^G2008^(G5656) them^G846 that^G2443 they should tell^G3004^(G5725) no man^G3367 of^G4012 him^G846.

³¹ He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

KJVAnd^G2532 he began^G756^(G5662) to teach^G1321^(G5721) them^G846, that^G3754 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 must^G1163^(G5748) suffer^G3958^(G5629) many things^G4183, and^G2532 be rejected^G593^(G5683) of^G575 the elders^G4245, and^G2532 of the chief priests^G749, and^G2532 scribes^G1122, and^G2532 be killed^G615^(G5683), and^G2532 after^G3326 three^G5140 days^G2250 rise again^G450^(G5629).

³² He spoke to them openly. Peter took him and began to rebuke him.

KJVAnd^G2532 he spake^G2980^(G5707) that saying^G3056 openly^G3954. And^G2532 Peter^G4074 took^G4355^(G5642) him^G846, and began^G756^(G5662) to rebuke^G2008^(G5721) him^G846.

³³ But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”

KJVBut^G1161 when he had turned about^G1994^(G5651) and^G2532 looked^G1492^(G5631) on his^G846 disciples^G3101, he rebuked^G2008^(G5656) Peter^G4074, saying^G3004^(G5723), Get thee^G5217^(G5720) behind^G3694 me^G3450, Satan^G4567: for^G3754 thou savourest^G5426^(G5719) not^G3756 the things that be of God^G2316, but^G235 the things that be of men^G444.

³⁴ He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

KJVAnd^G2532 when he had called^G4341^(G5666) the people^G3793 unto him with^G4862 his^G846 disciples^G3101 also, he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Whosoever^G3748 will^G2309^(G5719) come^G2064^(G5629) after^G3694 me^G3450, let him deny^G533^(G5663) himself^G1438, and^G2532 take up^G142^(G5657) his^G846 cross^G4716, and^G2532 follow^G190^(G5720) me^G3427.

³⁵ For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.

KJVFor^G1063 whosoever^G3739^G302 will^G2309^(G5725) save^G4982^(G5658) his^G846 life^G5590 shall lose^G622^(G5692) it^G846; but^G1161 whosoever^G3739^G302 shall lose^G622^(G5661) his^G846 life^G5590 for^G1752 my sake^G1700 and^G2532 the gospel's^G2098, the same^G3778 shall save^G4982^(G5692) it^G846.

³⁶ For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?

KJVFor^G1063 what^G5101 shall it profit^G5623^(G5692) a man^G444, if^G1437 he shall gain^G2770^(G5661) the whole^G3650 world^G2889, and^G2532 lose^G2210^(G5686) his own^G846 soul^G5590?

³⁷ For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
