Sending Out the Twelve

9Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.G1161G4779G846G1427G3101G4779G2532G1325G846G1411G1849G1909G3956G1140G2532G2323G3554 2He sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.G2532G649G846G2784G932G2316G2532G2390G770 3And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.G2532G2036G4314G846G142G3367G1519G3598G3383G4464G3383G4082G3383G740G3383G694G3383G2192G1417G5509G303 4"Whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart.G2532G3739G302G3614G1525G1519G1563G3306G2532G1564G1831 5"And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them."G2532G3745G302G1209G3361G1209G5209G1831G575G1565G4172G660G2532G2868G575G5216G4228G1519G3142G1909G846 6So they departed and went through the towns, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.G1161G1831G1330G2596G2968G2097G2532G2323G3837

Herod Seeks to See Jesus

7Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,G1161G2264G5076G191G3956G1096G5259G846G2532G1280G1223G3004G5259G5100G3754G2491G1453G1537G3498 8and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.G1161G5259G5100G3754G2243G5316G1161G243G3754G1520G744G4396G450 9Herod said, "John I have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things?" So he sought to see Him.G2532G2264G2036G2491G607G1473G607G1161G5101G2076G3778G4012G3739G1473G191G5108G2532G2212G1492G846

Feeding the Five Thousand

10And the apostles, when they had returned, told Him all that they had done. Then He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.G2532G652G5290G1334G846G3745G4160G2532G3880G846G5298G2596G2398G1519G2048G5117G4172G2564G966 11But when the multitudes knew it, they followed Him; and He received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.G1161G3793G1097G190G846G2532G1209G846G2980G846G4012G932G2316G2532G2390G2192G5532G2322 12When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a deserted place here."G1161G2250G756G2827G1161G4334G1427G2036G846G630G3793G630G2443G565G1519G2968G2532G68G2945G2647G2532G2147G1979G3754G2070G5602G1722G2048G5117 13But He said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people."G1161G2036G4314G846G1325G5210G846G5315G1161G2036G2254G3756G1526G4119G2228G4002G740G2532G1417G2486G1509G2249G4198G59G1033G1519G3956G5126G2992 14For there were about five thousand men. Then He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in groups of fifty."G1063G2258G5616G4000G435G1161G2036G4314G846G3101G2625G846G2625G303G4004G2828 15And they did so, and made them all sit down.G2532G4160G3779G2532G347G537G347 16Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.G1161G2983G4002G740G2532G1417G2486G308G1519G3772G2127G846G2532G2622G2532G1325G3101G3908G3793 17So they all ate and were filled, and twelve baskets of the leftover fragments were taken up by them.G2532G5315G2532G5526G3956G5526G2532G142G2801G4052G846G1427G2894

Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ

18And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"G2532G1096G1722G1511G2651G4336G846G3101G4895G846G2532G1905G846G3004G5101G3004G3793G3165G1511 19So they answered and said, "John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again."G1161G611G2036G2491G910G1161G243G2243G1161G243G3754G5100G744G4396G450 20He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said, "The Christ of God."G1161G2036G846G1161G5101G3004G5210G3165G1511G1161G4074G611G2036G5547G2316

Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection

21And He strictly warned and commanded them to tell this to no one,G1161G2008G846G3853G2036G3367G5124 22saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day."G2036G3754G5207G444G1163G3958G4183G2532G593G575G4245G2532G749G2532G1122G2532G615G2532G1453G5154G2250

Take Up the Cross and Follow Him

23Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.G1161G3004G4314G3956G1536G2309G2064G3694G3450G533G1438G2532G142G846G4716G2250G2596G2532G190G3427 24"For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.G1063G3739G302G2309G4982G846G5590G622G846G1161G3739G302G622G846G5590G1700G1752G3778G4982G846 25"For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost?G1063G5101G5623G444G5623G2770G3650G2889G1161G622G1438G2228G2210 26"For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels.G1063G3739G302G1870G3165G2532G1699G3056G5126G1870G5207G444G1870G3752G2064G1722G846G1391G2532G3962G2532G40G32 27"But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God."G1161G3004G5213G230G1526G5100G2476G5602G3739G1089G3364G1089G2288G2193G302G1492G932G2316

Jesus Transfigured on the Mount

28Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.G1161G1096G5616G3638G2250G3326G5128G3056G2532G3880G4074G2532G2491G2532G2385G305G1519G3735G4336 29As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening.G2532G1722G846G4336G1491G846G4383G1096G2087G2532G846G2441G3022G1823 30And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,G2532G2400G4814G846G1417G435G3748G2258G3475G2532G2243 31who appeared in glory and spoke of His decease which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.G3739G3700G1722G1391G3004G846G1841G3739G3195G4137G1722G2419 32But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who stood with Him.G1161G4074G2532G4862G846G2258G916G5258G1161G1235G1492G846G1391G2532G1417G435G4921G846 33Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"—not knowing what he said.G2532G1096G1722G846G1316G575G846G4074G2036G4314G2424G1988G2076G2570G2248G1511G5602G2532G4160G5140G4633G3391G4671G2532G3391G3475G2532G3391G2243G3361G1492G3739G3004 34While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud.G1161G846G5023G3004G1096G3507G2532G1982G846G1161G5399G1722G1565G1525G1519G3507 35And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!"G2532G1096G5456G1537G3507G3004G3778G2076G3450G27G5207G191G846 36When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.G2532G5456G1722G1096G2424G2147G3441G2532G846G4601G2532G518G3762G1722G1565G2250G3762G3739G3708

A Boy Is Healed

37Now it happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.G1161G1096G1722G1836G2250G846G2718G575G3735G4183G3793G4876G846 38Suddenly a man from the multitude cried out, saying, "Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, for he is my only child.G2532G2400G435G575G3793G310G3004G1320G1189G4675G1914G1909G3450G5207G3754G2076G3427G3439 39"And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth, and it departs from him with great difficulty, bruising him.G2532G2400G4151G2983G846G2532G1810G2896G2532G4682G846G876G3326G2532G4937G846G3425G672G575G846 40"So I implored Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."G2532G1189G4675G3101G2443G1544G846G1544G2532G1410G3756 41Then Jesus answered and said, "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here."G1161G2424G611G2036G5599G571G2532G1294G1074G2193G4219G2071G4314G5209G2532G430G5216G4317G4675G5207G5602 42And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father.G1161G846G4334G2089G4334G1140G4486G846G4486G2532G4952G1161G2424G2008G169G4151G2532G2390G3816G2532G591G846G591G846G3962

Jesus Again Predicts His Death

43And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while everyone marveled at all the things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,G1161G1605G3956G1605G1909G3168G2316G1161G2296G3956G1909G3956G3739G2424G4160G2036G4314G846G3101 44"Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men."G5128G3056G5087G1519G5210G5216G3775G1063G5207G444G3195G3860G1519G5495G444 45But they did not understand this saying, and it was hidden from them so that they did not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.G1161G50G5124G4487G2532G2258G3871G575G846G3363G143G846G3363G2532G5399G2065G846G4012G5127G4487

Who Is the Greatest?

46Then a dispute arose among them as to which of them would be greatest.G1161G1525G1261G1722G846G5101G302G846G1498G3187 47And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a little child and set him by Him,G1161G2424G1492G1261G846G2588G1949G3813G2476G846G3844G1438 48and said to them, "Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great."G2532G2036G846G3739G1437G1209G5124G3813G1909G3450G3686G1209G1691G2532G3739G1437G1209G1691G1209G649G3165G1063G5225G3398G1722G5213G3956G3778G2071G3173

Jesus Forbids Sectarianism

49Now John answered and said, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us."G1161G2491G611G2036G1988G1492G5100G1544G1140G1909G4675G3686G2532G2967G846G3754G190G3756G3326G2257 50But Jesus said to him, "Do not forbid him, for he who is not against us is on our side."G2532G2424G2036G4314G846G2967G3361G1063G3739G2076G3756G2596G2257G2076G5228G2257

A Samaritan Village Rejects the Savior

51Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem,G1161G1096G1722G2250G4845G846G354G2532G846G4741G846G4383G4198G1519G2419 52and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him.G2532G649G32G4253G846G4383G2532G4198G1525G1519G2968G4541G5620G2090G846 53But they did not receive Him, because His face was set for the journey to Jerusalem.G2532G1209G3756G1209G846G3754G846G4383G2258G4198G1519G2419 54And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?"G1161G846G3101G2385G2532G2491G1492G2036G2962G2309G2036G4442G2597G575G3772G2532G355G846G2532G5613G2243G4160 55But He turned and rebuked them, and said, "You do not know what manner of spirit you are of.G1161G4762G2008G846G2532G2036G1492G3756G3634G4151G5210G2075 56"For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives but to save them." And they went to another village.G1063G5207G444G2064G3756G2064G622G444G5590G235G4982G2532G4198G1519G2087G2968

The Cost of Discipleship

57Now it happened as they journeyed on the road, that someone said to Him, "Lord, I will follow You wherever You go."G1161G1096G846G4198G1722G3598G5100G2036G4314G846G2962G190G4671G3699G302G565 58And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."G2532G2424G2036G846G258G2192G5454G2532G4071G3772G2682G1161G5207G444G2192G3756G4226G2827G2776 59Then He said to another, "Follow Me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."G1161G2036G4314G2087G190G3427G1161G2036G2962G2010G3427G4412G565G2290G3450G3962 60Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God."G1161G2424G2036G846G863G3498G2290G1438G3498G1161G565G4771G1229G932G2316 61And another also said, "Lord, I will follow You, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house."G1161G2087G2532G2036G2962G190G4671G1161G2010G3427G4412G657G1519G3450G3624 62But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."G1161G2424G2036G4314G846G3762G1911G846G5495G1909G723G2532G991G1519G3694G2076G2111G1519G932G2316
