Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be
of men.
[24] Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself,
and take up his cross, and follow me.
[25] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever
will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
[26] For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
[27] For the Son of man shall
come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his
works.
[28] Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they
see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
Matt.17
[1] And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an
high mountain apart,
[2] And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his
raiment was white as the light.
[3] And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with
him.
[4] Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us
make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
[5] While he yet spake,
behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my
beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
[6] And when the disciples heard it, they fell on
their face, and were sore afraid.
[7] And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not
afraid.
[8] And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
[9] And as they
came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of
man be risen again from the dead.
[10] And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes
that Elias must first come?
[11] And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come,
and restore all things.
[12] But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but
have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
[13] Then
the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
[14] And when they were come
to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
[15] Lord, have
mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the
water.
[16] And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
[17] Then Jesus answered and
said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you?
bring him hither to me.
[18] And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was
cured from that very hour.
[19] Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast
him out?
[20] And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have
faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and
it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
[21] Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by
prayer and fasting.
[22] And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be
betrayed into the hands of men:
[23] And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again.
And they were exceeding sorry.
[24] And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute
money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
[25] He saith, Yes. And when he was
come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings
of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
[26] Peter saith unto him, Of
strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.
[27] Notwithstanding, lest we should offend
them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou
hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
Matt.18
[1] At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
[2]
And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
[3] And said, Verily I say unto
you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
[4]
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of
heaven.
[5] And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
[6] But whoso shall
offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged
about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
[7] Woe unto the world because of
