\subsection{\Matthew 17}
|
|
\subsubsection{The Transfiguration}
|
|
\VS{1} And after six days \Iesous took \Petros and \Jacob\fnJacob{}
|
|
and \John his brother and brought them up to [a] high mountain by themselves.
|
|
\VS{2} And he was transformed before them, and his face shown as the sun,
|
|
his garment became white as light.
|
|
\VS{3} And behold \Moses and \Elias were seen by them conversing with him.
|
|
\VS{4} But \Petros answering said to \Iesous{}:
|
|
Lord, it is good\footnote{or ``beautiful''} [that] we are here.
|
|
If you wish, we will build three shelters, one for you and one for \Moses and one for \Elias.
|
|
\VS{5} While he was yet speaking behold [a] radiant cloud overshadowed them,
|
|
and behold [a] voice out of the cloud said: This is my agape-beloved son with whom I am well-pleased.
|
|
Be hearing him.
|
|
\VS{6} And when the disciples heard they fell on their faces and feared greatly.
|
|
\VS{7} And \Iesous came and grasping them said:
|
|
Rise and be not fearing.
|
|
\VS{8} And when they lifted up their eyes they saw nothing except \Iesous himself only.
|
|
|
|
\VS{9} And while coming down the mountain \Iesous commanded them saying:
|
|
Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{} rises out of [the] dead.
|
|
\VS{10} And the disciples asked him saying:
|
|
Why therefore do the scribes say the \Elias must come first?
|
|
\VS{11} And
|
|
answering he said: \Elias indeed comes and restores\footnote{or ``reestablishes''} everything.
|
|
\VS{12} But I say to you that \Elias already
|
|
came and they did not know him, but did with him whatever they wished. Thus
|
|
also is the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{} about to be suffering by them.
|
|
\VS{13} Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them concerning \John the Baptizer.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Disciples's Failure to Heal}
|
|
\VS{14} And when they came to the crowd [a] man came to him kneeling before him
|
|
\VS{15} and saying: Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is insane%
|
|
\footnote{literally ``moon-struck'' --- ``epilepsy''?}
|
|
and suffers badly.
|
|
For often he falls into the fire and often into the water.
|
|
\VS{16} And I brought him to your disciples and they were unable to heal him.
|
|
\VS{17} \Iesous answering said: O unbelieving and perverted nation,
|
|
how long will I be with you? How long will I endure you? Be bringing him here to me.
|
|
\VS{18} And \Iesous rebuked him and the demon came out from him
|
|
and the child was healed from that hour.
|
|
\VS{19} Then when the disciples came to \Iesous privately they said:
|
|
Why were we unable to cast it out?
|
|
\VS{20} So he says to them: Because of your untrust\footnote{``untrust'' DW\koine{} \vulgate{};
|
|
``little-trust'' \sinaiticus{}B}.
|
|
Truly I say to you, if you have trust like [a] grain of mustard,
|
|
you will say to this mountain:
|
|
Go from here to there, and it will go, and nothing will be impossible to you.
|
|
\VS{21} \footnote{vs 21: DW\koine{} \vulgate{}; omit the verse: B\sinaiticus{} few}
|
|
But this type does not go out except in prayer and fasting.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Second Prediction of \Iesous's Death and Resurrection}
|
|
\VS{22} When they came together in \Galilee \Iesous said to them:
|
|
The Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{} is about to be delivered into the hands of people.
|
|
\VS{23} And they will kill him, and on the third day he will arise.
|
|
And they were greatly disturbed.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Temple Tax}
|
|
\VS{24} When they came into \Kapernaoum the [ones] collecting double-drachmas\fnDrachma{} came to \Petros and said:
|
|
Doesn't your teacher pay [the] double-drachma [tax]?
|
|
\VS{25} He says: Yes. And when they came to the house \Iesous came before him saying:
|
|
How does it seem to you \Simon? From which do the kings of the earth collect taxes or tolls?
|
|
From his sons or from the strangers\footnote{or ``foreigners"}?
|
|
\VS{26} So when he said: From the strangers\footnote{or ``foreigners"},
|
|
\Iesous said to him: Therefore the sons are exempt.
|
|
\VS{27} But in order that we not cause them to stumble,
|
|
having gone to the sea throw [a] fishhook and take the first fish you bring up,
|
|
and opening its mouth you will find [a] stater\fnStater{}.
|
|
Taking this give [it] to them for me and you.
