Darby Bible Translation

New Living Translation

  • The Transfiguration

    And after six days Jesus takes with [him] Peter, and James, and John his brother, and brings them up into a high mountain apart.
  • The Transfiguration

    Six days later Jesus took Peter and the two brothers, James and John, and led them up a high mountain to be alone.
  • And he was transfigured before them. And his face shone as the sun, and his garments became white as the light;
  • As the men watched, Jesus’ appearance was transformed so that his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as light.
  • and lo, Moses and Elias appeared to them talking with him.
  • Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared and began talking with Jesus.
  • And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good we should be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles: for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elias.
  • Peter exclaimed, “Lord, it’s wonderful for us to be here! If you want, I’ll make three shelters as memorialsa — one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
  • While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, *This* is my beloved Son, in whom I have found my delight: hear him.
  • But even as he spoke, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy. Listen to him.”
  • And the disciples hearing [it] fell upon their faces, and were greatly terrified.
  • The disciples were terrified and fell face down on the ground.
  • And Jesus coming to [them] touched them, and said, Rise up, and be not terrified.
  • Then Jesus came over and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.”
  • And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus alone.
  • And when they looked up, Moses and Elijah were gone, and they saw only Jesus.
  • And as they descended from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, until the Son of man be risen up from among [the] dead.
  • As they went back down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Don’t tell anyone what you have seen until the Son of Manb has been raised from the dead.”
  • And [his] disciples demanded of him saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first have come?
  • Then his disciples asked him, “Why do the teachers of religious law insist that Elijah must return before the Messiah comes?c
  • And he answering said to them, Elias indeed comes first and will restore all things.
  • Jesus replied, “Elijah is indeed coming first to get everything ready.
  • But I say unto you that Elias has already come, and they have not known him, but have done unto him whatever they would. Thus also the Son of man is about to suffer from them.
  • But I tell you, Elijah has already come, but he wasn’t recognized, and they chose to abuse him. And in the same way they will also make the Son of Man suffer.”
  • Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the baptist.
  • Then the disciples realized he was talking about John the Baptist.
  • Jesus Heals a Boy with a Demon

    And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying,

  • Jesus Heals a Demon-Possessed Boy

    At the foot of the mountain, a large crowd was waiting for them. A man came and knelt before Jesus and said,
  • Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is lunatic, and suffers sorely; for often he falls into the fire and often into the water.
  • “Lord, have mercy on my son. He has seizures and suffers terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water.
  • And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.
  • So I brought him to your disciples, but they couldn’t heal him.”
  • And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to me.
  • Jesus said, “You faithless and corrupt people! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.”
  • And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out from him, and the boy was healed from that hour.
  • Then Jesus rebuked the demon in the boy, and it left him. From that moment the boy was well.
  • Then the disciples, coming to Jesus apart, said [to him], Why were not *we* able to cast him out?
  • Afterward the disciples asked Jesus privately, “Why couldn’t we cast out that demon?”
  • And he says to them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard [seed], ye shall say to this mountain, Be transported hence there, and it shall transport itself; and nothing shall be impossible to you.
  • “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.d
    Jesus Again Predicts His Death

  • Jesus Again Predicts Death, Resurrection

    And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into [the] hands of men,
  • After they gathered again in Galilee, Jesus told them, “The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of his enemies.
  • and they shall kill him; and the third day he shall be raised up. And they were greatly grieved.
  • He will be killed, but on the third day he will be raised from the dead.” And the disciples were filled with grief.
  • The Temple Tax

    And when they came to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your teacher not pay the didrachmas?

  • Payment of the Temple Tax

    On their arrival in Capernaum, the collectors of the Temple taxe came to Peter and asked him, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the Temple tax?”
  • He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What dost thou think, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive custom or tribute? from their own sons or from strangers?
  • “Yes, he does,” Peter replied. Then he went into the house.
    But before he had a chance to speak, Jesus asked him, “What do you think, Peter?f Do kings tax their own people or the people they have conquered?g
  • Peter says to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.
  • “They tax the people they have conquered,” Peter replied.
    “Well, then,” Jesus said, “the citizens are free!
  • But that we may not be an offence to them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take the first fish that comes up, and when thou hast opened its mouth thou wilt find a stater; take that and give it to them for me and thee.
  • However, we don’t want to offend them, so go down to the lake and throw in a line. Open the mouth of the first fish you catch, and you will find a large silver coin.h Take it and pay the tax for both of us.”
