Verse
Mark - ch 9 v 1 - 20
- And he said to them, Verily I say unto you, There are some of those standing here that shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God come in power.
- And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter and James and John, and takes them up on a high mountain by themselves apart. And he was transfigured before them:
- and his garments became shining, exceeding white as snow, such as fuller on earth could not whiten them.
- And there appeared to them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
- And Peter answering says to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good that we should be here; and let us make three tabernacles, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elias one.
- For he knew not what he should say, for they were filled with fear.
- And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
- And suddenly having looked around, they no longer saw any one, but Jesus alone with themselves.
- And as they descended from the mountain, he charged them that they should relate to no one what they had seen, unless when the Son of man should be risen from among the dead.
- And they kept that saying, questioning among themselves, what rising from among the dead was.
- And they asked him saying, Why do the scribes say that Elias must first have come?
- And he answering said to them, Elias indeed, having first come, restores all things; and how is it written of the Son of man that he must suffer much, and be set at nought:
- but I say unto you that Elias also is come, and they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him.
- And when he came to the disciples he saw a great crowd around them, and scribes disputing against them.
- And immediately all the crowd seeing him were amazed, and running to him, saluted him.
- And he asked them, What do ye question with them about?
- And one out of the crowd answered him, Teacher, I brought to thee my son, who has a dumb spirit;
- and wheresoever it seizes him it tears him, and he foams and gnashes his teeth, and he is withering away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they might cast him out, and they could not.
- But he answering them says, O unbelieving generation! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me.
- And they brought him to him. And seeing him the spirit immediately tore him; and falling upon the earth he rolled foaming.
