Matthew 17

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	VULGATA
1 And after six days, Jesus took Peter and James and his brother John, and he led them onto a lofty mountain separately.	1 Et post dies sex assumit Jesus Petrum, et Jacobum, et Joannem fratrem ejus, et ducit illos in montem excelsum seorsum :
2 And he was transfigured before them. And his face shined brightly like the sun. And his garments were made white like snow.	2 et transfiguratus est ante eos. Et resplenduit facies ejus sicut sol : vestimenta autem ejus facta sunt alba sicut nix.
3 And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, speaking with him.	3 Et ecce apparuerunt illis Moyses et Elias cum eo loquentes.
4 And Peter responded by saying to Jesus: “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you are willing, let us make three tabernacles here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”	4 Respondens autem Petrus, dixit ad Jesum : Domine, bonum est nos hic esse : si vis, faciamus tria tabernacula, tibi unum, Moysi unum, et Eliæ unum.
5 And while he was still speaking, behold, a shining cloud overshadowed them. And behold, there was a voice from the cloud, saying: “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”	5 Adhuc eo loquente, ecce nubes lucida obumbravit eos. Et ecce vox de nube, dicens : Hic est Filius meus dilectus, in quo mihi bene complacui : ipsum audite.
6 And the disciples, hearing this, fell prone on their face, and they were very afraid.	6 Et audientes discipuli ceciderunt in faciem suam, et timuerunt valde.
7 And Jesus drew near and touched them. And he said to them, “Rise up and do not be afraid.”	7 Et accessit Jesus, et tetigit eos : dixitque eis : Surgite, et nolite timere.
8 And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.	8 Levantes autem oculos suos, neminem viderunt, nisi solum Jesum.
9 And as they were descending from the mountain, Jesus instructed them, saying, “Tell no one about the vision, until the Son of man has risen from the dead.”	9 Et descendentibus illis de monte, præcepit eis Jesus, dicens : Nemini dixeritis visionem, donec Filius hominis a mortuis resurgat.
10 And his disciples questioned him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that it is necessary for Elijah to arrive first?”	10 Et interrogaverunt eum discipuli, dicentes : Quid ergo scribæ dicunt, quod Eliam oporteat primum venire ?
11 But in response, he said to them: “Elijah, indeed, shall arrive and restore all things.	11 At ille respondens, ait eis : Elias quidem venturus est, et restituet omnia.
12 But I say to you, that Elijah has already arrived, and they did not recognize him, but they did whatever they wanted to him. So also shall the Son of man suffer from them.”	12 Dico autem vobis, quia Elias jam venit, et non cognoverunt eum, sed fecerunt in eo quæcumque voluerunt. Sic et Filius hominis passurus est ab eis.
13 Then the disciples understood that he had spoken to them about John the Baptist.	13 Tunc intellexerunt discipuli, quia de Joanne Baptista dixisset eis.
14 And when he had arrived at the multitude, a man approached him, falling to his knees before him, saying: “Lord, take pity on my son, for he is an epileptic, and he suffers harm. For he frequently falls into fire, and often also into water.	14 Et cum venisset ad turbam, accessit ad eum homo genibus provolutus ante eum, dicens : Domine, miserere filio meo, quia lunaticus est, et male patitur : nam sæpe cadit in ignem, et crebro in aquam.
15 And I brought him to your disciples, but they were not able to cure him.”	15 Et obtuli eum discipulis tuis, et non potuerunt curare eum.
16 Then Jesus responded by saying: “What an unbelieving and perverse generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I endure you? Bring him here to me.”	16 Respondens autem Jesus, ait : O generatio incredula, et perversa, quousque ero vobiscum ? usquequo patiar vos ? Afferte huc illum ad me.
17 And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.	17 Et increpavit illum Jesus, et exiit ab eo dæmonium, et curatus est puer ex illa hora.
18 Then the disciples approached Jesus privately and said, “Why were we unable to cast him out?”	18 Tunc accesserunt discipuli ad Jesum secreto, et dixerunt : Quare nos non potuimus ejicere illum ?
19 Jesus said to them: “Because of your unbelief. Amen I say to you, certainly, if you will have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it shall move. And nothing will be impossible for you.	19 Dixit illis Jesus : Propter incredulitatem vestram. Amen quippe dico vobis, si habueritis fidem sicut granum sinapis, dicetis monti huic : Transi hinc illuc, et transibit, et nihil impossibile erit vobis.
20 But this kind is not cast out, except through prayer and fasting.”	20 Hoc autem genus non ejicitur nisi per orationem et jejunium.
21 And when they were conversing together in Galilee, Jesus said to them: “The Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.	21 Conversantibus autem eis in Galilæa, dixit illis Jesus : Filius hominis tradendus est in manus hominum :
22 And they will kill him, but he will rise again on the third day.” And they were extremely saddened.	22 et occident eum, et tertia die resurget. Et contristati sunt vehementer.
23 And when they had arrived at Capernaum, those who collected the half shekel approached Peter, and they said to him, “Doesn’t your Teacher pay the half shekel?”	23 Et cum venissent Capharnaum, accesserunt qui didrachma accipiebant ad Petrum, et dixerunt ei : Magister vester non solvit didrachma ?
24 He said, “Yes.” And when he had entered into the house, Jesus went before him, saying: “How does it seem to you, Simon? The kings of the earth, from whom do they receive tribute or the census tax: from their own sons or from foreigners?”	24 Ait : Etiam. Et cum intrasset in domum, prævenit eum Jesus, dicens : Quid tibi videtur Simon ? reges terræ a quibus accipiunt tributum vel censum ? a filiis suis, an ab alienis ?
25 And he said, “From foreigners.” Jesus said to him: “Then the sons are free.	25 Et ille dixit : Ab alienis. Dixit illi Jesus : Ergo liberi sunt filii.
26 But so that we may not become an obstacle to them: go to the sea, and cast in a hook, and take the first fish that is brought up, and when you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take it and give it to them, for me and for you.”	26 Ut autem non scandalizemus eos, vade ad mare, et mitte hamum : et eum piscem, qui primus ascenderit, tolle : et aperto ore ejus, invenies staterem : illum sumens, da eis pro me et te.
