your heart yet hardened?
[18] Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not
remember?
[19] When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments
took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
[20] And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets
full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
[21] And he said unto them, How is it that ye do
not understand?
[22] And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought
him to touch him.
[23] And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he
had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
[24] And he looked up,
and said, I see men as trees, walking.
[25] After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made
him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
[26] And he sent him away to his house,
saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
[27] And Jesus went out, and his disciples,
into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do
men say that I am?
[28] And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of
the prophets.
[29] And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith
unto him, Thou art the Christ.
[30] And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
[31] And
he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders,
and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
[32] And he spake
that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
[33] But when he had turned about
and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not
the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
[34] And when he had called the people unto
him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and
take up his cross, and follow me.
[35] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall
lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
[36] For what shall it profit a man, if
he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
[37] Or what shall a man give in exchange for his
soul?
[38] Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful
generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father
with the holy angels.
Mark.9
[1] And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which
shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.
[2] And after six days
Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by
themselves: and he was transfigured before them.
[3] And his raiment became shining, exceeding white
as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.
[4] And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and
they were talking with Jesus.
[5] And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be
here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
[6] For he
wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.
[7] And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a
voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
[8] And suddenly, when they had
looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
[9] And as they came
down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till
the Son of man were risen from the dead.
[10] And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning
one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
[11] And they asked him, saying, Why say
the scribes that Elias must first come?
[12] And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and
restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set
at nought.
[13] But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever
they listed, as it is written of him.
[14] And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about
them, and the scribes questioning with them.
[15] And straightway all the people, when they beheld him,
were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.
[16] And he asked the scribes, What question
ye with them?
[17] And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my
son, which hath a dumb spirit;
[18] And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth,
and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him
out; and they could not.
[19] He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with
you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
[20] And they brought him unto him: and when he
saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
[21] And he
