Marcus 9

VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Et post dies sex assumit Jesus Petrum, et Jacobum, et Joannem, et ducit illos in montem excelsum seorsum solos, et transfiguratus est coram ipsis.	1 He also said to them, "Amen, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see that the kingdom of God has come in power."
2 Et vestimenta ejus facta sunt splendentia, et candida nimis velut nix, qualia fullo non potest super terram candida facere.	2 After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves. And he was transfigured before them,
3 Et apparuit illis Elias cum Moyse : et erant loquentes cum Jesu.	3 and his clothes became dazzling white, such as no fuller on earth could bleach them.
4 Et respondens Petrus, ait Jesu : Rabbi, bonum est nos hic esse : et faciamus tria tabernacula, tibi unum, et Moysi unum, et Eliæ unum.	4 Then Elijah appeared to them along with Moses, and they were conversing with Jesus.
5 Non enim sciebat quid diceret : erant enim timore exterriti.	5 Then Peter said to Jesus in reply, "Rabbi, it is good that we are here! Let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
6 Et facta est nubes obumbrans eos : et venit vox de nube, dicens : Hic est Filius meus carissimus : audite illum.	6 He hardly knew what to say, they were so terrified.
7 Et statim circumspicientes, neminem amplius viderunt, nisi Jesum tantum secum.	7 Then a cloud came, casting a shadow over them; then from the cloud came a voice, "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him."
8 Et descendentibus illis de monte, præcepit illis ne cuiquam quæ vidissent, narrarent : nisi cum Filius hominis a mortuis resurrexerit.	8 Suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone but Jesus alone with them.
9 Et verbum continuerunt apud se : conquirentes quid esset, cum a mortuis resurrexerit.	9 As they were coming down from the mountain, he charged them not to relate what they had seen to anyone, except when the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10 Et interrogabant eum, dicentes : Quid ergo dicunt pharisæi et scribæ, quia Eliam oportet venire primum ?	10 So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what rising from the dead meant.
11 Qui respondens, ait illis : Elias cum venerit primo, restituet omnia : et quomodo scriptum est in Filium hominis, ut multa patiatur et contemnatur.	11 Then they asked him, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"
12 Sed dico vobis quia et Elias venit (et fecerunt illi quæcumque voluerunt) sicut scriptum est de eo.	12 He told them, "Elijah will indeed come first and restore all things, yet how is it written regarding the Son of Man that he must suffer greatly and be treated with contempt?
13 Et veniens ad discipulos suos, vidit turbam magnam circa eos, et scribas conquirentes cum illis.	13 But I tell you that Elijah has come and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him."
14 Et confestim omnis populus videns Jesum, stupefactus est, et expaverunt, et accurrentes salutabant eum.	14 When they came to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and scribes arguing with them.
15 Et interrogavit eos : Quid inter vos conquiritis ?	15 Immediately on seeing him, the whole crowd was utterly amazed. They ran up to him and greeted him.
16 Et respondens unus de turba, dixit : Magister, attuli filium meum ad te habentem spiritum mutum :	16 He asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?"
17 qui ubicumque eum apprehenderit, allidit illum, et spumat, et stridet dentibus, et arescit : et dixi discipulis tuis ut ejicerent illum, et non potuerunt.	17 Someone from the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I have brought to you my son possessed by a mute spirit.
18 Qui respondens eis, dixit : O generatio incredula, quamdiu apud vos ero ? quamdiu vos patiar ? afferte illum ad me.	18 Wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive it out, but they were unable to do so."
19 Et attulerunt eum. Et cum vidisset eum, statim spiritus conturbavit illum : et elisus in terram, volutabatur spumans.	19 He said to them in reply, "O faithless generation, how long will I be with you? How long will I endure you? Bring him to me."
20 Et interrogavit patrem ejus : Quantum temporis est ex quo ei hoc accidit ? At ille ait : Ab infantia :	20 They brought the boy to him. And when he saw him, the spirit immediately threw the boy into convulsions. As he fell to the ground, he began to roll around and foam at the mouth.
21 et frequenter eum in ignem, et in aquas misit ut eum perderet : sed si quid potes, adjuva nos, misertus nostri.	21 Then he questioned his father, "How long has this been happening to him?" He replied, "Since childhood.
22 Jesus autem ait illi : Si potes credere, omnia possibilia sunt credenti.	22 It has often thrown him into fire and into water to kill him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us."
23 Et continuo exclamans pater pueri, cum lacrimis aiebat : Credo, Domine ; adjuva incredulitatem meam.	23 Jesus said to him, " 'If you can!' Everything is possible to one who has faith."
24 Et cum videret Jesus concurrentem turbam, comminatus est spiritui immundo, dicens illi : Surde et mute spiritus, ego præcipio tibi, exi ab eo : et amplius ne introëas in eum.	24 Then the boy's father cried out, "I do believe, help my unbelief!"
25 Et exclamans, et multum discerpens eum, exiit ab eo, et factus est sicut mortuus, ita ut multi dicerent : Quia mortuus est.	25 Jesus, on seeing a crowd rapidly gathering, rebuked the unclean spirit and said to it, "Mute and deaf spirit, I command you: come out of him and never enter him again!"
26 Jesus autem tenens manum ejus elevavit eum, et surrexit.	26 Shouting and throwing the boy into convulsions, it came out. He became like a corpse, which caused many to say, "He is dead!"
27 Et cum introisset in domum, discipuli ejus secreto interrogabant eum : Quare nos non potuimus ejicere eum ?	27 But Jesus took him by the hand, raised him, and he stood up.
28 Et dixit illis : Hoc genus in nullo potest exire, nisi in oratione et jejunio.	28 When he entered the house, his disciples asked him in private, "Why could we not drive it out?"
29 Et inde profecti prætergrediebantur Galilæam : nec volebat quemquam scire.	29 He said to them, "This kind can only come out through prayer."
30 Docebat autem discipulos suos, et dicebat illis : Quoniam Filius hominis tradetur in manus hominum, et occident eum, et occisus tertia die resurget.	30 They left from there and began a journey through Galilee, but he did not wish anyone to know about it.
31 At illi ignorabant verbum : et timebant interrogare eum.	31 He was teaching his disciples and telling them, "The Son of Man is to be handed over to men and they will kill him, and three days after his death he will rise."
32 Et venerunt Capharnaum. Qui cum domi essent, interrogabat eos : Quid in via tractabatis ?	32 But they did not understand the saying, and they were afraid to question him.
33 At illi tacebant : siquidem in via inter se disputaverunt : quis eorum major esset.	33 They came to Capernaum and, once inside the house, he began to ask them, "What were you arguing about on the way?"
34 Et residens vocavit duodecim, et ait illis : Si quis vult primus esse, erit omnium novissimus, et omnium minister.	34 But they remained silent. They had been discussing among themselves on the way who was the greatest.
35 Et accipiens puerum, statuit eum in medio eorum : quem cum complexus esset, ait illis :	35 Then he sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, "If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all."
36 Quisquis unum ex hujusmodi pueris receperit in nomine meo, me recipit : et quicumque me susceperit, non me suscipit, sed eum qui misit me.	36 Taking a child he placed it in their midst, and putting his arms around it he said to them,
37 Respondit illi Joannes, dicens : Magister, vidimus quemdam in nomine tuo ejicientem dæmonia, qui non sequitur nos, et prohibuimus eum.	37 "Whoever receives one child such as this in my name, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but the one who sent me."
38 Jesus autem ait : Nolite prohibere eum : nemo est enim qui faciat virtutem in nomine meo, et possit cito male loqui de me :	38 John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow us."
39 qui enim non est adversum vos, pro vobis est.	39 Jesus replied, "Do not prevent him. There is no one who performs a mighty deed in my name who can at the same time speak ill of me.
40 Quisquis enim potum dederit vobis calicem aquæ in nomine meo, quia Christi estis : amen dico vobis, non perdet mercedem suam.	40 For whoever is not against us is for us.
41 Et quisquis scandalizaverit unum ex his pusillis credentibus in me : bonum est ei magis si circumdaretur mola asinaria collo ejus, et in mare mitteretur.	41 Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward.
42 Et si scandalizaverit te manus tua, abscide illam : bonum est tibi debilem introire in vitam, quam duas manus habentem ire in gehennam, in ignem inextinguibilem,	42 "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe (in me) to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were put around his neck and he were thrown into the sea.
43 ubi vermis eorum non moritur, et ignis non extinguitur.	43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than with two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire.
44 Et si pes tuus te scandalizat, amputa illum : bonum est tibi claudum introire in vitam æternam, quam duos pedes habentem mitti in gehennam ignis inextinguibilis,	44
45 ubi vermis eorum non moritur, et ignis non extinguitur.	45 And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna.
46 Quod si oculus tuus scandalizat te, ejice eum : bonum est tibi luscum introire in regnum Dei, quam duos oculos habentem mitti in gehennam ignis,
47 ubi vermis eorum non moritur, et ignis non extinguitur.	47 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. Better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna,
48 Omnis enim igne salietur, et omnis victima sale salietur.	48 where 'their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.'
49 Bonum est sal : quod si sal insulsum fuerit, in quo illud condietis ? Habete in vobis sal, et pacem habete inter vos.	49 "Everyone will be salted with fire.
