¹And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.

¹እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ በዚህ ከቆሙት ሰዎች የእግዚአብሔር መንግሥት በኃይል ስትመጣ እስኪያዩ ድረስ፥ ሞትን የማይቀምሱ አንዳንዶች አሉ አላቸው።

²And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.

²ከስድስት ቀንም በኋላ ኢየሱስ ጴጥሮስንና ያዕቆብን ዮሐንስንም ይዞ ወደ ረጅም ተራራ ብቻቸውን አወጣቸው። በፊታቸውም ተለወጠ፥ ልብሱም አንጸባረቀ፤

³And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.

³አጣቢም በምድር ላይ እንደዚያ ሊያነጣው እስከማይችል በጣም ነጭ ሆነ።

⁴And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.

⁴ኤልያስና ሙሴም ታዩአቸው፥ ከኢየሱስም ጋር ይነጋገሩ ነበር።

⁵And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

⁵ጴጥሮስም መልሶ ኢየሱስን። መምህር ሆይ፥ በዚህ መሆን ለእኛ መልካም ነውና አንድ ለአንተ አንድም ለሙሴ አንድም ለኤልያስ ሦስት ዳሶች እንሥራ አለው።

⁶For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.

⁶እጅግ ስለ ፈሩ የሚለውን አያውቅም ነበር።

⁷And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

⁷ደመናም መጥቶ ጋረዳቸው፥ ከደመናውም። የምወደው ልጄ ይህ ነው፥ እርሱን ስሙት የሚል ድምፅ መጣ።

⁸And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.

⁸ድንገትም ዞረው ሲመለከቱ ከእነርሱ ጋር ከኢየሱስ ብቻ በቀር ማንንም አላዩም።

⁹And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.

⁹ከተራራውም ሲወርዱ የሰው ልጅ ከሙታን እስኪነሣ ድረስ ያዩትን ለማንም እንዳይነግሩ አዘዛቸው።

¹⁰And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.

¹⁰ቃሉንም ይዘው። ከሙታን መነሣት ምንድር ነው? እያሉ እርስ በርሳቸው ተጠያየቁ።

¹¹And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?

¹¹እነርሱም። ኤልያስ አስቀድሞ ሊመጣ እንዲገባው ጻፎች ስለ ምን ይላሉ? ብለው ጠየቁት።

¹²And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

¹²እርሱም መልሶ። ኤልያስማ አስቀድሞ ይመጣል ሁሉንም ያቀናናል፤ ስለ ሰው ልጅም እንዴት ተብሎ ተጽፎአል? ብዙ መከራ እንዲቀበል እንዲናቅም።

¹³But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

¹³ነገር ግን እላችኋለሁ፥ ኤልያስ ደግሞ መጥቶአል፥ ስለ እርሱም እንደ ተጸፈ የወደዱትን ሁሉ አደረጉበት አላቸው።

¹⁴And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.

¹⁴ወደ ደቀ መዛሙርቱም በመጣ ጊዜ ብዙ ሕዝብ ሲከብቡአቸው ጻፎችም ከእነርሱ ጋር ሲከራከሩ አየ።

¹⁵And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

¹⁵ወዲያውም ሕዝቡ ሁሉ ባዩት ጊዜ ደነገጡ፥ ወደ እርሱም ሮጠው እጅ ነሡት።

¹⁶And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

¹⁶ጻፎችንም። ስለ ምን ከእነርሱ ጋር ትከራከራላችሁ? ብሎ ጠየቃቸው።

¹⁷And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;

¹⁷ከሕዝቡ አንዱ መልሶ። መምህር ሆይ፥ ዲዳ መንፈስ ያደረበትን ልጄን ወደ አንተ አምጥቼአለሁ፤

¹⁸And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.

¹⁸በያዘውም ስፍራ ሁሉ ይጥለዋል፤ አረፋም ይደፍቃል፥ ጥርሱንም ያፋጫል ይደርቃልም፤ እንዲያወጡለትም ለደቀ መዛሙርትህ ነገርኋቸው፥ አልቻሉምም አለው።

¹⁹He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

¹⁹እርሱም መልሶ። የማታምን ትውልድ ሆይ፥ እስከመቼ ከእናንተ ጋር እኖራለሁ? እስከ መቼስ እታገሣችኋለሁ? ወደ እኔ አምጡት አላቸው።

²⁰And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

²⁰ወደ እርሱም አመጡት። እርሱንም ባየ ጊዜ ያ መንፈስ ወዲያው አንፈራገጠው፤ ወደ ምድርም ወድቆ አረፋ እየደፈቀ ተንፈራፈረ።

²¹And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

²¹አባቱንም። ይህ ከያዘው ስንት ዘመን ነው? ብሎ ጠየቀው። እርሱም። ከሕፃንነቱ ጀምሮ ነው፤

²²And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

²²ብዙ ጊዜም ሊያጠፋው ወደ እሳትም ወደ ውኃም ጣለው፤ ቢቻልህ ግን እዘንልን እርዳንም አለው።

²³Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

²³ኢየሱስም። ቢቻልህ ትላለህ፤ ለሚያምን ሁሉ ይቻላል አለው።

²⁴And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

²⁴ወዲያውም የብላቴናው አባት ጮኾ። አምናለሁ፤ አለማመኔን እርዳው አለ።

²⁵When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

²⁵ኢየሱስም ሕዝቡ እንደ ገና ሲራወጥ አይቶ ርኵሱን መንፈስ ገሠጸና። አንተ ዲዳ ደንቆሮም መንፈስ፥ እኔ አዝሃለሁ፥ ከእርሱ ውጣ እንግዲህም አትግባበት አለው።

²⁶And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

²⁶ጮኾም እጅግም አንፈራግጦት ወጣ፤ ብዙዎችም። ሞተ እስኪሉ ድረስ እንደ ሙት ሆነ።

²⁷But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

²⁷ኢየሱስ ግን እጁን ይዞ አስነሣው ቆመም።

²⁸And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?

²⁸ወደ ቤትም ከገባ በኋላ ደቀ መዛሙርቱ። እኛ ልናወጣው ያልቻልን ስለ ምንድር ነው? ብለው ብቻውን ጠየቁት።

²⁹And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

²⁹ይህ ወገን በጸሎትና በጦም ካልሆነ በምንም ሊወጣ አይችልም አላቸው።

³⁰And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.

³⁰ከዚያም ወጥተው በገሊላ በኩል አለፉ፤ ደቀ መዛሙርቱንም ያስተምር ስለ ነበር ማንም ያውቅ ዘንድ አልወደደም፤ ለእነርሱም። የሰው ልጅ በሰዎች እጅ አልፎ ይሰጣል፥ ይገድሉትማል፥ ተገድሎም በሦስተኛው ቀን ይነሣል ይላቸው ነበር።

³¹For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.

³²እነርሱም ነገሩን አላስተዋሉም፥ እንዳይጠይቁትም ፈሩ።

³²But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

³³ወደ ቅፍርናሆምም መጣ። በቤትም ሆኖ። በመንገድ እርስ በርሳችሁ ምን ተነጋገራችሁ? ብሎ ጠየቃቸው።

³³And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?

³⁴እነርሱ ግን በመንገድ። ከሁሉ የሚበልጥ ማን ይሆን? ተባብለው ነበርና ዝም አሉ።

³⁴But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.

³⁵ተቀምጦም አሥራ ሁለቱን ጠርቶ። ሰው ፊተኛ ሊሆን ቢወድ ከሁሉ በኋላ የሁሉም አገልጋይ ይሁን አላቸው።

³⁵And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

³⁶ሕፃንም ይዞ በመካከላቸው አቆመው አቅፎም።

³⁶And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,

³⁷እንደዚህ ካሉ ሕፃናት አንዱን በስሜ የሚቀበል ሁሉ እኔን ይቀበላል፤ የሚቀበለኝም ሁሉ የላከኝን እንጂ እኔን አይቀበልም አላቸው።

³⁷Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

³⁸ዮሐንስ መልሶ። መምህር ሆይ፥ አንድ ሰው በስምህ አጋንንትን ሲያወጣ አየነው፥

³⁸And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.

³⁹ስለማይከተለንም ከለከልነው አለው። ኢየሱስ ግን አለ። በስሜ ተአምር ሠርቶ በቶሎ በእኔ ላይ ክፉ መናገር የሚችል ማንም የለምና አትከልክሉት፤

³⁹But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.

⁴⁰የማይቃወመን እርሱ ከእኛ ጋር ነውና።

⁴⁰For he that is not against us is on our part.

⁴¹የክርስቶስ ስለ ሆናችሁ በስሜ ጽዋ ውኃ የሚያጠጣችሁ ሁሉ፥ ዋጋው እንዳይጠፋበት እውነት እላችኋለሁ።

⁴¹For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.

⁴²በእኔም ከሚያምኑት ከእነዚህ ከታናናሾቹ አንዱን የሚያሰናክል ሁሉ ትልቅ የወፍጮ ድንጋይ በአንገቱ ታስሮ ወደ ባሕር ቢጣል ይሻለው ነበር።

⁴²And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

⁴³እጅህ ብታሰናክልህ ቍረጣት፤ ሁለት እጅ ኖሮህ ትላቸው ወደማይሞትበት እሳቱም ወደማይጠፋበት ወደ ገሃነም ወደማይጠፋ እሳት ከመሄድ ጕንድሽ ሆነህ ወደ ሕይወት መግባት ይሻላል።

⁴³And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

⁴⁵እግርህ ብታሰናክልህ ቍረጣት፤ ሁለት እግር ኖሮህ ትላቸው ወደማይሞትበት እሳቱም ወደማይጠፋበት ወደ ገሃነም ወደማይጠፋ እሳት ከመጣል አንካሳ ሆነህ ወደ ሕይወት መግባት ይሻልሃል።

⁴⁴Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

⁴⁷ዓይንህ ብታሰናክልህ አውጣት፤ ሁለት ዓይን ኖሮህ ትላቸው ወደማይሞትበት እሳቱም ወደማይጠፋበት ወደ ገሃነመ እሳት ከመጣል አንዲት ዓይን ኖራህ ወደ እግዚአብሔር መንግሥት መግባት ይሻልሃል።

⁴⁵And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

⁴⁹ሰው ሁሉ በእሳት ይቀመማልና፥ መሥዋዕትም ሁሉ በጨው ይቀመማል።

⁴⁶Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

⁵⁰ጨው መልካም ነው፤ ጨው ግን አልጫ ቢሆን በምን ታጣፍጡታላችሁ? በነፍሳችሁ ጨው ይኑርባችሁ፥ እርስ በርሳችሁም ተስማሙ።

⁴⁷And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:

⁴⁸Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

⁴⁹For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.

⁵⁰Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
