Matthew 17:1-19:2 And after sixe dayes, Iesus tooke Peter, and Iames and Iohn his brother, and brought them vp into an hie mountaine apart,

Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And after sixe dayes, Iesus tooke Peter, and Iames and Iohn his brother, and brought them vp into an hie mountaine apart, ² And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the Sunne, and his clothes were as white as the light. ³ And beholde, there appeared vnto them Moses, and Elias, talking with him. ⁴ Then answered Peter, and saide to Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here: if thou wilt, let vs make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. ⁵ While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloude shadowed them: and beholde, there came a voyce out of the cloude, saying, This is that my beloued Sonne, in whom I am well pleased: heare him. ⁶ And when the disciples heard that, they fell on their faces, and were sore afraide. ⁷ Then Iesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraide. ⁸ And when they lifted vp their eyes, they sawe no man, saue Iesus onely. ⁹ And as they came downe from the moutaine, Iesus charged them, saying, Shewe the vision to no man, vntil the Sonne of man rise againe from the dead. ¹⁰ And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the Scribes that Elias must first come? ¹¹ And Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Certeinely Elias must first come, and restore all thinges. ¹² But I say vnto you that Elias is come alreadie, and they knewe him not, but haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they would: likewise shall also the Sonne of man suffer of them. ¹³ Then the disciples perceiued that he spake vnto them of Iohn Baptist. ¹⁴ And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certaine man, and fell downe at his feete, ¹⁵ And saide, Master, haue pitie on my sonne: for he is lunatike, and is sore vexed: for oft times he falleth into the fire, and oft times into the water. ¹⁶ And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not heale him. ¹⁷ Then Iesus answered, and said, O generation faithlesse, and crooked, how long now shall I be with you! howe long nowe shall I suffer you! bring him hither to me. ¹⁸ And Iesus rebuked the deuill, and he went out of him: and the childe was healed at that houre. ¹⁹ Then came the disciples to Iesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? ²⁰ And Iesus said vnto them, Because of your vnbeliefe: for verely I say vnto you, if ye haue faith as much as is a graine of mustarde seede, ye shall say vnto this mountaine, Remooue hence to yonder place, and it shall remoue: and nothing shalbe vnpossible vnto you. ²¹ Howbeit this kinde goeth not out, but by prayer and fasting. ²² And they being in Galile, Iesus said vnto them, The Sonne of man shall be deliuered into the handes of men, ²³ And they shall kill him, but the thirde day shall he rise againe: and they were very sorie. ²⁴ And when they were come to Capernaum, they that receiued polle money, came to Peter, and sayd, Doeth not your Master pay polle money? ²⁵ He sayd, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Iesus preuented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? Of whome doe the Kings of the earth take tribute, or polle money? of their children, or of strangers? ²⁶ Peter sayd vnto him, Of strangers. Then said Iesus vnto him, Then are the children free. ²⁷ Neuerthelesse, lest we should offend them: goe to the sea, and cast in an angle, and take the first fish that commeth vp, and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt finde a piece of twentie pence: that take, and giue it vnto them for me and thee. ¹⁸ ¹ The same time the disciples came vnto Iesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdome of heauen? ² And Iesus called a litle childe vnto him, and set him in the mids of them, ³ And sayd, Verely I say vnto you, except ye be conuerted, and become as litle children, ye shall not enter into the kingdome of heauen. ⁴ Whosoeuer therefore shall humble himselfe as this litle childe, the same is the greatest in the kingdome of heauen. ⁵ And whosoeuer shall receiue one such litle childe in my name, receiueth me. ⁶ But whosoeuer shall offend one of these litle ones which beleeue in me, it were better for him, that a milstone were hanged about his necke, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. ⁷ Wo be vnto the world because of offences: for it must needes be that offences shall come, but wo be to that man by whome the offence commeth. ⁸ Wherefore, if thy hand or thy foote cause thee to offend, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life, halt, or maimed, then hauing two hands, or two feete, to be cast into euerlasting fire. ⁹ And if thine eye cause thee to offende, plucke it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, then hauing two eyes to be cast into hell fire. ¹⁰ See that ye despise not one of these litle ones: for I say vnto you, that in heauen their Angels alwayes behold the face of my Father which is in heauen. ¹¹ For the Sonne of man is come to saue that which was lost. ¹² How thinke ye? If a man haue an hundreth sheepe, and one of them be gone astray, doeth he not leaue ninetie and nine, and go into the mountaines, and seeke that which is gone astray? ¹³ And if so be that he finde it, verely I say vnto you, he reioyceth more of that sheepe, then of the ninetie and nine which went not astray: ¹⁴ So is it not ye wil of your Father which is in heauen, that one of these litle ones should perish. ¹⁵ Moreouer, if thy brother trespasse against thee, goe and tell him his fault betweene thee and him alone: if he heare thee, thou hast wonne thy brother. ¹⁶ But if he heare thee not, take yet with thee one or two, that by the mouth of two or three witnesses euery worde may be confirmed. ¹⁷ And if he refuse to heare them, tell it vnto the Church: and if he refuse to heare the Church also, let him be vnto thee as an heathen man, and a Publicane. ¹⁸ Verely I say vnto you, Whatsoeuer ye bind on earth, shall be bound in heauen: and whatsoeuer ye loose on earth, shalbe loosed in heauen. ¹⁹ Againe, verely I say vnto you, that if two of you shall agree in earth vpon any thing, whatsoeuer they shall desire, it shall be giuen them of my Father which is in heauen. ²⁰ For where two or three are gathered together in my Name, there am I in the mids of them. ²¹ Then came Peter to him, and said, Master, howe oft shall my brother sinne against me, and I shall forgiue him? vnto seuen times? ²² Iesus said vnto him, I say not to thee, Vnto seuen times, but, Vnto seuentie times seuen times. ²³ Therefore is the kingdome of heauen likened vnto a certaine King, which would take an account of his seruants. ²⁴ And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought vnto him, which ought him ten thousand talents. ²⁵ And because he had nothing to pay, his Lord commanded him to be solde, and his wife, and his children, and all that he had, and the dette to be payed. ²⁶ The seruant therefore fell downe, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, refraine thine anger toward me, and I will pay thee all. ²⁷ Then that seruants Lord had compassion, and loosed him, and forgaue him the dette. ²⁸ But when the seruant was departed, hee found one of his felow seruants, which ought him an hundred pence, and he layde hands on him, and thratled him, saying, Pay me that thou owest. ²⁹ Then his fellow seruant fell downe at his feete, and besought him, saying, Refraine thine anger towards me, and I will pay thee all. ³⁰ Yet he would not, but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the dette. ³¹ And when his other felowe seruants sawe what was done, they were very sory, and came, and declared vnto their Lord all that was done. ³² Then his Lord called him vnto him, and sayd to him, O euil seruant, I forgaue thee all that dette, because thou prayedst me. ³³ Oughtest not thou also to haue had pitie on thy fellowe seruant, euen as I had pitie on thee? ³⁴ So his Lord was wroth, and deliuered him to the tormentours, till he should pay all that was due to him. ³⁵ So likewise shall mine heauenly Father doe vnto you, except ye forgiue from your hearts, eche one to his brother their trespasses. ¹⁹ ¹ And it came to passe, that when Iesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galile, and came into ye coasts of Iudea beyond Iordan. ² And great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
