(28)And it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray. (29)And it came to pass, while he was praying, that the appearance of his countenance became changed, and his raiment white and glistening. (30)And, behold, two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah; (31)who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, which he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem. (32)But Peter and they who were with him were heavy with sleep; and awaking, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. (33)And it came to pass, that, as they were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus: Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah; not knowing what he said. (34)While he said this, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them; and they feared as they entered into the cloud. (35)And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying: This is my chosen Son; hear ye him. (36)And when the voice had come, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent, and told no one in those days any of the things which they had seen. (37)And it came to pass, on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met him. (38)And, behold, a man from the multitude cried, saying: Teacher, I beseech thee, look upon my son; for he is my only child. (39)And, behold, a spirit takes him, and he suddenly cries out; and it tears him with foaming, and hardly departs from him, bruising him. (40)And I entreated thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not. (41)And Jesus answering said: O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? Bring hither thy son. (42)And while he was yet coming, the demon threw him down, and tore him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and gave him back to his father. (43)And all were amazed at the mighty power of God. But while all were wondering at all things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples: (44)Do ye let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men. (45)But they understood not this saying, and it was hidden from them, that they perceived it not; and they feared to ask him concerning that saying. (46)And there arose in them the thought[9:46], which of them was greatest. (47)And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child and placed it by him, (48)and said to them: Whoever shall receive this child in my name, receives me; and whoever shall receive me, receives him who sent me; for he that is least among you all, the same is great. (49)And John answering said: Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbade him, because he follows not with us. (50)And Jesus said to him: Forbid him not; for he that is not against us is for us.
