- Kapitel 9 -

(Matthew 17:1–13; Luke 9:28–36; 2 Peter 1:16–21)
1
Then Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.”
2
After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There He was transfigured before them.
3
His clothes became radiantly white, brighter than any launderer on earth could bleach them.
4
And Elijah and Moses appeared before them, talking with Jesus.
5
Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters (a)—one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
6
For they were all so terrified that Peter did not know what else to say.
7
Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him!”
8
Suddenly, when they looked around, they saw no one with them except Jesus.
9
As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus admonished them not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10
So they kept this matter to themselves, discussing what it meant to rise from the dead.
11
And they asked Jesus, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
12
He replied, “Elijah does indeed come first, and he restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected?
13
But I tell you that Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they wished, just as it is written about him.”

The Boy with an Evil Spirit

(Matthew 17:14–18; Luke 9:37–42)
14
When they returned to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.
15
As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were filled with awe and ran to greet Him.
16
“What are you disputing with them?” He asked.
17
Someone in the crowd replied, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a spirit that makes him mute.
18
Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid.(b) I asked Your disciples to drive it out, but they were unable.”
19
“O unbelieving generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to Me.”
20
So they brought him, and seeing Jesus, the spirit immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.
21
Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has this been with him?” “From childhood,” he said.
22
“It often throws him into the fire or into the water, trying to kill him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”
23
“If You can?” echoed Jesus. “All things are possible to him who believes!”
24
Immediately the boy’s father cried out,(c) “I do believe; help my unbelief!”
25
When Jesus saw that a crowd had come running, He rebuked the unclean spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” He said, “I command you to come out and never enter him again.”
26
After shrieking and convulsing him violently, the spirit came out. The boy became like a corpse, so that many said, “He is dead.”
27
But Jesus took him by the hand and helped him to his feet, and he stood up.
28
After Jesus had gone into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
29
Jesus answered, “This kind cannot come out, except by prayer.”(d)

The Second Prediction of the Passion

(Matthew 17:22–23; Luke 9:43–45)
30
Going on from there, they passed through Galilee. But Jesus did not want anyone to know,
31
because He was teaching His disciples. He told them, “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill Him, and after three days He will rise.”
32
But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.

The Greatest in the Kingdom

(Matthew 18:1–5; Luke 9:46–50)
33
Then they came to Capernaum. While Jesus was in the house, He asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?”
34
But they were silent, for on the way they had been arguing about which of them was the greatest.
35
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all and the servant of all.”
36
Then He had a little child stand among them. Taking the child in His arms, He said to them,
37
“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in My name welcomes Me, and whoever welcomes Me welcomes not only Me, but the One who sent Me.”
38
John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone else driving out demons in Your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not accompany us.”
39
“Do not stop him,” Jesus replied. “For no one who performs a miracle in My name can turn around and speak evil of Me.
40
For whoever is not against us is for us.
41
Indeed, if anyone gives you even a cup of water because you bear the name of Christ, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.

Temptations and Trespasses

(Matthew 18:6–9; Luke 17:1–4)
42
But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea.
43
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two hands and go into hell,(e) into the unquenchable fire.(f)
45
If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.(g)
47
And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,
48
where ‘their worm never dies, and the fire is never quenched.’(h)

Good Salt

(Matthew 5:13–16; Luke 14:34–35)
49
For everyone will be salted with fire.(i)
50
Salt is good, but if the salt loses its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”

1
He 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.”
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.
3
His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.
4
Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.
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.”
6
For he didn’t know what to say, for they were very afraid.
7
A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”
8
Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them any more, except Jesus only.
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.
10
They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the “rising from the dead” meant.
11
They asked him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
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?
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.”

The Boy with an Evil Spirit

(Matthew 17:14–18; Luke 9:37–42)
14
Coming to the disciples, he saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning them.
15
Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.
16
He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”
17
One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;
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.”
19
He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”
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.
21
He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has been happening to him?” He said, “From childhood.
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.”
23
Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
24
Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”
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!”
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.”
27
But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him up; and he arose.
28
When he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”
29
He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing but by prayer and fasting.”

The Second Prediction of the Passion

(Matthew 17:22–23; Luke 9:43–45)
30
They went out from there and passed through Galilee. He didn’t want anyone to know 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.”
32
But they didn’t understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.

The Greatest in the Kingdom

(Matthew 18:1–5; Luke 9:46–50)
33
He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you arguing among yourselves on the way?”
34
But they were silent, for they had disputed with one another on the way about who was the greatest.
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.”
36
He took a little child and set him in the middle of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,
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.”
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.”
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.
40
For whoever is not against us is on our side.
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.

Temptations and Trespasses

(Matthew 18:6–9; Luke 17:1–4)
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, (a) into the unquenchable fire,
44
‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ (b) (c)
45
If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, (d) into the fire that will never be quenched—
46
‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ (e)
47
If your eye causes you to stumble, throw it out. It is better for you to enter into God’s Kingdom with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna (f) of fire,
48
‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ (g)

Good Salt

(Matthew 5:13–16; Luke 14:34–35)
49
For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.
50
Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”
