\subsection{Mark 9}
\VS{1} And he saying to them: 
Truly I say to you that there are some of [those] standing here who will \negd{not} taste%
\footnote{the sense is not ``taste a little bit'', rather ``experience something cognitively or emotionally, come to know something''} 
of death until they see the Kingdom of God be come in power. 

\subsubsection{The Transfiguration}
\VS{2} And after six days \Iesous takes \Petros and \Iakob\fnIakob{} and \Ioannes, 
and he leads them to [a] high mountain privately alone. And he was transformed before them. 
\VS{3} And his garments became shining very white, 
such as the launderer on Earth is not able thus to whiten. 
\VS{4} And there was seen by them \Elias with \Moses, 
and he was speaking together with \Iesous. 
\VS{5} And answering \Petros says to \Iesous: 
Rabbi, it is good we are here, and let us make three 
shelters%
\footnote{or ``booths'', ``shelters'', referring to the temporary booths constructed in the celebration of the feast of Tabernacles.},
one for you and one for \Moses and one for \Elias. 
\VS{6} For he had not known what he should answer. For they became terrified. 
\VS{7} And [a] cloud came to pass overshadowing them, 
and [a] voice came to pass out of the cloud; 
This is my agape-beloved son, Be hearing him. 
\VS{8} And suddenly having looked [about] they no longer saw anything except \Iesous alone with them. 

\VS{9} And when they were coming down from the mountain, 
he ordered them that to no one what they saw should they recount, 
except when the son of man go up out of the clouds. 
\VS{10} And they laid hold of the word to them, 
debating what is the going up out of the clouds. 

\VS{11} And they asked him saying: Why do the scribes say the \Elias must first come? 
\VS{12} But he said to them: 
\Elias indeed having come first will set everything in order. 
And how is it written [about] the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{}, 
in order that many [things] he should suffer and should be treated with contempt? 
\VS{13} But I say to you that \Elias has come, 
and they did to him how much they wanted, just as it is written [about] him.

\subsubsection{The Disciples' Failure to Heal}
\VS{14} And having come to the disciples they saw [a] great crowd around them 
and scribes debating with them. 
\VS{15} And immediately all the crowd when they saw him were amazed, 
and running up were clinging to him. 
\VS{16} And he asked them, What do you debate with them? 
\VS{17} And one out of the crowd answered him: 
Teacher, I brought my son to you, having [a] mute spirit, 
\VS{18} and whenever he overtakes him, he throws him down, 
and froths at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and wither; 
and I spoke to your disciples in order that they cast him out, 
and they had not the strength. 
\VS{19} But answering he says to them: 
O untrusting\fnPistis{} generation, until when will I be with you? 
Until when will I endure you? Be bringing him to me. 
\VS{20} And they brought him to him. 
And when the spirit saw him, immediately he convulsed him, 
and having thrown [him] on the ground\fnGe{} he was rolling, frothing at the mouth. 
\VS{21} And he asked his father, How long [a] time is as this come to pass to him? 
But he said: From childhood. 
\VS{22} And often even into fire he threw him and into the waters 
in order that he should destroy him; 
but if you are able, help him, having had compassion upon him. 
\VS{23} But \Iesous said to him: 
If you are able, everything [is] possible to the [one] trusting. 
\VS{24} Straightway the father of the child having cried out, with tears%
\footnote{``with tears'' D\koine{} \vulgate{}; omit: \papyrus{45}\sinaiticus{}B} 
was saying: I trusting, Be helping my lack-of-trust. 

\VS{25} And when \Iesous saw that [the] crowd came running together, 
he rebuked the unclean spirit saying: 
Mute and deaf spirit, 
I command you, come out of him and no longer may you enter into him. 
\VS{26} And having cried out and greatly convulsed, 
he went out, and he became as dead, so that many said that he died. 
\VS{27} But \Iesous having laid hold of his hand raised him, and he stood. 

\VS{28} And when he entered into the house his disciples privately asked him: 
Why were we not able to cast it out? 
\VS{29} And he said to them: 
This type is able to come out of no one except by prayer and fasting%
\footnote{``and fasting'' \papyrus{45} DW\koine{}\hesychian{} \vulgate{} all; omit: \sinaiticus{}B}. 

\subsubsection{Second Prediction of \Iesous' Death and Resurrection}
\VS{30} And having gone out from there they were proceeding [about] \Galileias, 
and he did not want that anyone know. 
\VS{31} For he was teaching his disciples, and was saying to them that: 
The Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{} will be delivered up into the hands of people\fnAnthropos{}, 
and they will kill him, and having been killed with three days he will arise. 
\VS{32} But they were ignorant of the word\fnRema{}, and were fearing to ask him.

\subsubsection{Questions about the Greatest}
\VS{33} And they came to \Kapernaoum. 
And having come to pass in [a] house he asked them, 
What were you considering in the road? 
\VS{34} But they were being silent, 
for they had been reasoning with each other in the road who [is] greater. 
\VS{35} And having sat he called the twelve and says to them: 
Whoever would be first, he will be last of all and servant of all. 
\VS{36} And having taken [a] child he stood him in their midst, and taking him in his arms he said to them, 
\VS{37} Whoever receives one of such children in my name receives me; 
and whoever receive me, receives not me but the [one] having sent me. 

\subsubsection{On \Iesous's Side}
\VS{38} \Ioannes said to him: 
Teacher, we saw someone in your name casting out demons, who follows us not, 
and we forbid him, for he did not follow us. 
\VS{39} But \Iesous said: 
Be not forbidding him, for there is no one who does [a] power in my name 
and is able at once to speak badness of me;  % TODO
\VS{40} For whoever is not against us is for us. 
\VS{41} For whoever give you [a] cup of water in [my] name, 
because you are of the Anointed\fnChristos{} [One], 
truly I say to you that he will \negd{not} lose\fnApollumi{} his reward. 

\VS{42} And whoever should stumble one of these little [ones]believing, 
it is good to him rather to wear [a] donkey's millstone around his neck and be cast into the sea. 
\VS{43} And if your hand stumble you, cut it off; 
It is good [that] deformed you enter into \zoe{}-life\fnZoe{} 
than having your two hands depart into Gehenna\fnGehenna{}, 
into the inextinguishable fire, 
\VS{44} where their worm does not die and the fire does not extinguish. 
\VS{45} And if your foot stumble you, cut it off, 
It is good [that] you enter into \zoe{}-life\fnZoe{} crippled 
than having your two feet be thrown into Gehenna\fnGehenna{} into the inextinguishable fire, 
\VS{46} \footnote{include vs. 44,46: D\koine{} \vulgate{} most; omit vs. 44,46: \sinaiticus{}BW} 
where their worms not die and the fire does not extinguish. 
\VS{47} And if your eye stumble you, cast it out, 
for it is good [that] one-eyed you enter into the Kingdom of God 
than having two eyes be thrown into Gehenna\fnGehenna{}, 
\VS{48} where their worm does not die and the fire does not extinguish. 
\VS{49} For all will be salted in\footnote{or ``by''} fire. 
\VS{50} The salt is good. But if the salt become saltless, 
with what will you season it? Be having in yourselves salt and be having peace with one another.
