  Mark Chapter 9 And Jesus was saying to them, truly, I say to
• 0:04
  you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not
• 0:07
  taste death until they see the Kingdom of God after it has come
• 0:11
  with power. Six days later Jesus took with
• 0:14
  him Peter and James and John and brought them up on a high
• 0:17
  mountain by themselves, and he was transfigured before them,
• 0:22
  and his garments became radiant and exceedingly white, as no
• 0:25
  launderer on earth can whiten them.
• 0:28
  Elijah appeared to them along with Moses, and they were
• 0:31
  talking with Jesus. Peter said to Jesus, Rabbi, it
• 0:35
  is good for us to be here. Let us make 3 tabernacles, one
• 0:39
  for you and one for Moses, and 1:00 for Elijah, for he did not
• 0:42
  know what to answer for. They became terrified.
• 0:46
  Then a cloud formed, overshadowing them, and a voice
• 0:49
  came out of the cloud. This is my beloved son, listen
• 0:53
  to him. All at once they looked around
• 0:56
  and saw no one with them anymore except Jesus alone.
• 1:00
  As they were coming down from the mountain, He gave them
• 1:02
  orders not to relate to anyone what they had seen until the Son
• 1:06
  of Man rose from the dead. They seized upon that statement,
• 1:10
  discussing with one another what rising from the dead meant.
• 1:14
  They asked him, saying, Why is it that the scribes say that
• 1:18
  Elijah must come first? And he said to them, Elijah does
• 1:22
  first come and restore all things, and yet how is it
• 1:25
  written of the Son of Man that he will suffer many things and
• 1:28
  be treated with contempt? But I say to you that Elijah has
• 1:33
  indeed come. And they did to him whatever
• 1:35
  they wished, just as it is written of him.
• 1:38
  When they came back to the disciples, they saw a large
• 1:40
  crowd around them and some scribes arguing with them.
• 1:44
  Immediately when the entire crowd saw him, they were amazed,
• 1:47
  began running up to greet him. And he asked them, What are you
• 1:50
  discussing with them? And one of the crowd answered
• 1:53
  him. Teacher, I brought you my son
• 1:56
  possessed with a spirit which makes him mute, and whenever it
• 1:59
  seizes him, it slams him to the ground, and he foams at the
• 2:02
  mouth and grinds his teeth and stiffens out.
• 2:05
  I told your disciples to cast it out, and they could not do it.
• 2:09
  And he answered them and said, Oh, unbelieving generation, how
• 2:12
  long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with
• 2:15
  you? Bring him to me.
• 2:18
  They brought the boy to him. When he saw him, immediately the
• 2:21
  Spirit threw him into a convulsion, and falling to the
• 2:24
  ground, he began rolling around and foaming at the mouth.
• 2:27
  And he asked his father, how long has this been happening to
• 2:30
  him? And he said, from childhood it
• 2:33
  has often thrown him both into the fire and into the water to
• 2:35
  destroy him. But if you can do anything, take
• 2:38
  pity on us and help us. And Jesus said to him, if you
• 2:42
  can, all things are possible to him who believes.
• 2:46
  Immediately the boy's father cried out and said, I do
• 2:49
  believe, help my own belief. When Jesus saw that a crowd was
• 2:53
  rapidly gathering, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to
• 2:56
  it, You deaf and mute spirit, I command you come out of him and
• 3:00
  do not enter him again. After crying out and throwing
• 3:03
  him into terrible convulsions, it came out and the boy became
• 3:06
  so much like a corpse that most of them said He is dead.
• 3:10
  But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him, and he got up.
• 3:14
  When he came into the house, his disciples began questioning him
• 3:16
  privately. Why could we not drive it out?
• 3:19
  And He said to them, This kind cannot come out by anything but
• 3:22
  prayer. From there they went out and
• 3:25
  began to go through Galilee. And He did not want and He did
• 3:28
  not want anyone to know about it.
• 3:30
  For He was teaching His disciples and telling them, The
• 3:32
  Son of Man is to be delivered into the hands of men, and they
• 3:35
  will kill Him, and when He has been killed He will rise three
• 3:38
  days later. But they did not understand this
• 3:41
  statement and they were afraid to ask Him.
• 3:44
  They came to Capernaum when He was in the house.
• 3:46
  He began to question them. What were you discussing on the
• 3:48
  way? But they kept silent, for on the
• 3:51
  way they had discussed with one another which of them was the
• 3:53
  greatest. Sitting down, he called the 12
• 3:56
  and said to them, If anyone wants to be first, he shall be
• 3:59
  the last of all and servant of all.
• 4:02
  Taking a child, he set him before them, and taking him in
• 4:05
  his arms, he said to them, Whoever receives one child like
• 4:08
  this in my name receives me, and whoever receives me does not
• 4:12
  receive me, but him who sent me. John said to him, Teacher, we
• 4:16
  saw someone casting out demons in your name.
• 4:19
  We tried to prevent him because he was not following us.
• 4:22
  But Jesus said, do not hinder him.
• 4:25
  For there is no one who will perform a miracle in my name and
• 4:28
  be able soon afterward to speak evil of me.
• 4:31
  For he who is not against us is for us.
• 4:33
  For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because of your
• 4:36
  name as followers of Christ, truly I say to you, he will not
• 4:40
  lose his reward. Whoever causes one of these
• 4:42
  little ones who believe to stumble, it would be better for
• 4:45
  him if with a heavy millstone hung around his neck, he had
• 4:48
  been cast into the sea. If your hand causes you to
• 4:51
  stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter
• 4:53
  life crippled than having two hands to go into hell, into the
• 4:57
  unquenchable fire where their worm does not die and the fire
• 5:01
  is not quenched. If your foot causes you to
• 5:03
  stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter
• 5:06
  life lame than having your two feet to be cast into hell where
• 5:10
  their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.
• 5:13
  If your eye causes you to stumble, throw it out.
• 5:16
  It is better for you to enter the Kingdom of God with one eye
• 5:19
  than having two eyes to be cast into hell where their worm does
• 5:22
  not die and the fire is not quenched.
• 5:25
  For everyone will be salted with fire.
• 5:28
  Salt is good, but if the salt becomes unsalty, with what will
• 5:32
  you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves and be
• 5:36
  at peace with one another.
