Matthew 17
17
1And after sixe dayes, Iesus tooke Peter, and Iames and Iohn his brother, and brought them vp into an hie mountaine apart, 2And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the Sunne, and his clothes were as white as the light. 3And beholde, there appeared vnto them Moses, and Elias, talking with him. 4Then answered Peter, and saide to Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here: if thou wilt, let vs make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. 5While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloude shadowed them: and beholde, there came a voyce out of the cloude, saying, This is that my beloued Sonne, in whom I am well pleased: heare him. 6And when the disciples heard that, they fell on their faces, and were sore afraide. 7Then Iesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraide. 8And when they lifted vp their eyes, they sawe no man, saue Iesus onely. 9And as they came downe from the moutaine, Iesus charged them, saying, Shewe the vision to no man, vntil the Sonne of man rise againe from the dead. 10And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the Scribes that Elias must first come? 11And Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Certeinely Elias must first come, and restore all thinges. 12But I say vnto you that Elias is come alreadie, and they knewe him not, but haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they would: likewise shall also the Sonne of man suffer of them. 13Then the disciples perceiued that he spake vnto them of Iohn Baptist. 14And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certaine man, and fell downe at his feete, 15And saide, Master, haue pitie on my sonne: for he is lunatike, and is sore vexed: for oft times he falleth into the fire, and oft times into the water. 16And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not heale him. 17Then Iesus answered, and said, O generation faithlesse, and crooked, how long now shall I be with you! howe long nowe shall I suffer you! bring him hither to me. 18And Iesus rebuked the deuill, and he went out of him: and the childe was healed at that houre. 19Then came the disciples to Iesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? 20And Iesus said vnto them, Because of your vnbeliefe: for verely I say vnto you, if ye haue faith as much as is a graine of mustarde seede, ye shall say vnto this mountaine, Remooue hence to yonder place, and it shall remoue: and nothing shalbe vnpossible vnto you. 21Howbeit this kinde goeth not out, but by prayer and fasting. 22And they being in Galile, Iesus said vnto them, The Sonne of man shall be deliuered into the handes of men, 23And they shall kill him, but the thirde day shall he rise againe: and they were very sorie. 24And when they were come to Capernaum, they that receiued polle money, came to Peter, and sayd, Doeth not your Master pay polle money? 25He sayd, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Iesus preuented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? Of whome doe the Kings of the earth take tribute, or polle money? of their children, or of strangers? 26Peter sayd vnto him, Of strangers. Then said Iesus vnto him, Then are the children free. 27Neuerthelesse, lest we should offend them: goe to the sea, and cast in an angle, and take the first fish that commeth vp, and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt finde a piece of twentie pence: that take, and giue it vnto them for me and thee.

The Transfiguration
1 And after six days Jesus took along Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves. 2And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothing became bright as the light. 3And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with him. 4So Peter answered and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“answered”) has been translated as a finite verb said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we are here! If you want, I will make here three shelters, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 5While#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“speaking”) he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen to him!” 6And when#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“heard”) which is understood as temporal the disciples heard this,#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation they fell down on their faces and were extremely frightened. 7And Jesus came and touched them and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“touched”) has been translated as a finite verb said, “Get up and do not be afraid.” 8And when they#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“lifted up”) which is understood as temporal lifted up their eyes they saw no one except him—Jesus alone.

In the same way also the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.” 13Then the disciples understood that he had spoken to them about John the Baptist.
A Demon-possessed Boy Healed
14And when they#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“came”) came to the crowd, a man approached him, kneeling down before him 15and saying, “Lord, have mercy on my son, because he has seizures and suffers severely, for often he falls into the fire and often into the water. 16And I brought him to your disciples, and they were not able to heal him.” 17And Jesus answered and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“answered”) has been translated as a finite verb said, “O unbelieving and perverse generation! How long#Literally “until when” will I be with you? How long#Literally “until when” must I put up with you?

19Then the disciples approached Jesus privately and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“approached”) has been translated as a finite verb said, Why#Literally “for what” were we not able to expel it?” 20And he said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly I say to you, if you have faith like a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”#Most later Greek manuscripts add v. 21, “But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”
