Mark 9 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

The Transfiguration

(Mat 16:28—17:13; Luk 9:27–36; 2Pe 1:16–18 )

And Jesus was saying^G3004 to them, “Truly^G281 I say^G3004 to you, there are some^G5100 of those^G3588 who are standing^G2476 here^G5602 who^G3748 will not taste^G1089 death^G2288 until^G2193 they see^G3708 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 when it has come^G2064 with power^G1411.”

Mar 9:2

And six^G1803 days^G2250 later^G3326 Jesus^G2424 *took^G3880 with Him Peter^G4074, [fn]James^G2385, and John^G2491, and *brought^G399 them up^G399 on a high^G5308 mountain^G3735 by themselves^G2398^G3441. And He was [fn]transfigured^G3339 before^G1715 them;

Mar 9:3

Mar 9:3and His garments became radiant and exceedingly white, as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

Mar 9:4

Mar 9:4And Elijah appeared to them along with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.

Mar 9:5

Mar 9:5Peter responded and *said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good that we are here; let’s make three [fn]tabernacles, one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

Mar 9:6

Mar 9:6For he did not know how to reply; for they became terrified.

Mar 9:7

Mar 9:7Then a cloud [fn]formed, overshadowing them, and a voice [fn]came out of the cloud: “This is My beloved Son; [fn]listen to Him!”

Mar 9:8

Mar 9:8And suddenly they looked around and saw no one with them anymore, except Jesus alone.

Mar 9:9

As they were coming^G2597 down^G2597 from the mountain^G3735, He gave^G1291 them orders^G1291 not to relate^G1334 to anyone^G3367 what^G3739 they had seen^G3708, [fn]until^G1487^G3361^G3752 the Son^G5207 of Man^G444 rose^G450 from the dead^G3498.

Mar 9:10

Mar 9:10They [fn]seized upon [fn]that statement, discussing with one another [fn]what rising from the dead meant.

Mar 9:11

Mar 9:11And they asked Him, saying, “Why is it that the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

Mar 9:12

Mar 9:12And He said to them, “Elijah does come first and he restores all things. And yet how is it written of the Son of Man that He will suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

Mar 9:13

Mar 9:13“But I say to you that Elijah has [fn]indeed come, and they did to him whatever they wanted, just as it is written of him.”

All Things Possible

(Mat 17:14–21; Luk 9:37–42 )

Mar 9:14

And when they came^G2064 back to the other disciples^G3101, they saw^G3708 a large^G4183 crowd^G3793 around^G4012 them, and some scribes^G1122 arguing^G4802 with them.

Mar 9:15

Mar 9:15Immediately, when the entire crowd saw Him, they were amazed and began running up to greet Him.

Mar 9:16

Mar 9:16And He asked them, “What are you disputing with them?”

Mar 9:17

Mar 9:17And one person from the crowd answered Him, “Teacher, I brought You my son, because he has a spirit that makes him unable to speak;

Mar 9:18

Mar 9:18and [fn]whenever it seizes him, it slams him to the ground, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth and becomes stiff. And I told Your disciples so that they would cast it out, but they could not do it.”

Mar 9:19

Mar 9:19And He answered them and *said, “O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me!”

Mar 9:20

Mar 9:20And they brought [fn]the boy to Him. When he saw Him, the spirit immediately threw him into convulsions, and falling to the ground, he began rolling around and foaming at the mouth.

Mar 9:21

Mar 9:21And He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.

Mar 9:22

Mar 9:22“It has often thrown him both into the fire and into the water to kill him. But if You can do anything, take pity on us and help us!”

Mar 9:23

Mar 9:23But Jesus said to him, “‘If You can’? All things are possible for the one who believes.”

Mar 9:24

Mar 9:24Immediately the boy’s father cried out and said, “I do believe; help my unbelief!”

Mar 9:25

Mar 9:25When Jesus saw that a crowd was [fn]rapidly gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I [fn]command you, come out of him and do not enter him [fn]again!”

Mar 9:26

Mar 9:26And after crying out and throwing him into terrible convulsions, it came out; and the boy became so much like a corpse that most of them said, “He is dead!”

Mar 9:27

Mar 9:27But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him, and he got up.

Mar 9:28

Mar 9:28When He came into the house, His disciples began asking Him privately, “Why is it that we could not cast it out?”

Mar 9:29

Mar 9:29And He said to them, “This kind cannot come out by anything except prayer.”

Death and Resurrection Foretold

Mar 9:30

And from^G2547 there^G2547 they went^G1831 out^G1831 and began to go^G3899 through^G1223 Galilee^G1056, and He did not want^G2309 anyone^G5100 to know^G1097 about it.

Mar 9:31

Mar 9:31For He was teaching His disciples and telling them, “The Son of Man is to be [fn]handed over to men, and they will kill Him; and when He has been killed, He will rise three days later.”

Mar 9:32

Mar 9:32But they [fn]did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him.

(Mat 18:1–5; Luk 9:46–48 )

Mar 9:33

They came^G2064 to Capernaum^G2584; and when He was in the house^G3614, He began to question^G1905 them: “What^G5101 were you discussing^G1260 on the way^G3598?”

Mar 9:34

Mar 9:34But they kept silent, for on the way they had discussed with one another which of them was the greatest.

Mar 9:35

Mar 9:35And sitting down, He called the twelve and *said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.”

Mar 9:36

Mar 9:36And He took a child and placed him among them, and taking him in His arms, He said to them,

Mar 9:37

Mar 9:37“Whoever [fn]receives [fn]one child like this in My name [fn]receives Me; and whoever [fn]receives Me does not [fn]receive Me, but Him who sent Me.”

Dire Warnings

(Mat 10:40–42; Luk 9:49, 50 )

Mar 9:38

John^G2491 said^G5346 to Him, “Teacher^G1320, we saw^G3708 someone^G5100 casting^G1544 out^G1544 demons^G1140 in Your name^G3686, and we tried to prevent^G2967 him because^G3754 he was not following^G190 us.”

Mar 9:39

Mar 9:39But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him, for there is no one who will perform a miracle in My name, and be able soon afterward to speak evil of Me.

Mar 9:40

Mar 9:40“For the one who is not against us is [fn]for us.

Mar 9:41

Mar 9:41“For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink [fn]because of your name as followers of Christ, truly I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.

(Mat 18:6–9; Luk 17:1, 2 )

Mar 9:42

“Whoever^G3739 causes^G4624 one^G1520 of these^G3778 [fn]little^G3398 ones^G3398 who believe^G4100 in Me to^G4624 [fn]sin^G4624, it is better^G2570^G3123 for him if^G1487 a heavy^G3684 millstone^G3458 is hung^G4029 around^G4012 his neck^G5137 and he [fn]is thrown^G906 into the sea^G2281.

Mar 9:43

Mar 9:43“And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed, than, having your two hands, to go into [fn]hell, into the unquenchable fire.

Mar 9:44

Mar 9:44 [fn]

Mar 9:45

Mar 9:45“And if your foot is causing you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life without a foot, than, having your two feet, to be thrown into [fn]hell.

Mar 9:46

Mar 9:46 [fn]

Mar 9:47

Mar 9:47“And if your eye is causing you to sin, throw it away; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, than, having two eyes, to be thrown into [fn]hell,

Mar 9:48

Mar 9:48where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT EXTINGUISHED.

Mar 9:49

Mar 9:49“For everyone will be salted with fire.

Mar 9:50

Mar 9:50“Salt is good; but if the salt becomes unsalty, with what will you [fn]make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”
