¹And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

¹ከስድስት ቀንም በኋላ ኢየሱስ ጴጥሮስንና ያዕቆብን ወንድሙንም ዮሐንስን ይዞ ወደ ረጅም ተራራ ብቻቸውን አወጣቸው።

²And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

²በፊታቸውም ተለወጠ፥ ፊቱም እንደ ፀሐይ በራ፥ ልብሱም እንደ ብርሃን ነጭ ሆነ።

³And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

³እነሆም፥ ሙሴና ኤልያስ ከእርሱ ጋር ሲነጋገሩ ታዩአቸው።

⁴Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

⁴ጴጥሮስም መልሶ ኢየሱስን። ጌታ ሆይ፥ በዚህ መሆን ለእኛ መልካም ነው፤ ብትወድስ፥ በዚህ ሦስት ዳስ አንዱን ለአንተ አንዱንም ለሙሴ አንዱንም ለኤልያስ እንሥራ አለ።

⁵While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

⁵እርሱም ገና ሲናገር፥ እነሆ፥ ብሩህ ደመና ጋረዳቸው፥ እነሆም፥ ከደመናው። በእርሱ ደስ የሚለኝ የምወደው ልጄ ይህ ነው፤ እርሱን ስሙት የሚል ድምፅ መጣ።

⁶And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

⁶ደቀ መዛሙርቱም ሰምተው በፊታቸው ወደቁ እጅግም ፈርተው ነበር።

⁷And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

⁷ኢየሱስም ቀርቦ ዳሰሳቸውና። ተነሡ አትፍሩም አላቸው።

⁸And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

⁸ዓይናቸውንም አቅንተው ሲያዩ ከኢየሱስ ብቻ በቀር ማንንም አላዩም።

⁹And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

⁹ከተራራውም በወረዱ ጊዜ ኢየሱስ። የሰው ልጅ ከሙታን እስኪነሣ ድረስ ያያችሁትን ለማንም አትንገሩ ብሎ አዘዛቸው።

¹⁰And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?

¹⁰ደቀ መዛሙርቱም። እንግዲህ ጻፎች። ኤልያስ አስቀድሞ ሊመጣ ይገባዋል ስለ ምን ይላሉ? ብለው ጠየቁት።

¹¹And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.

¹¹ኢየሱስም መልሶ። ኤልያስማ አስቀድሞ ይመጣል ሁሉንም ያቀናል፤

¹²But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.

¹²ነገር ግን እላችኋለሁ፥ ኤልያስ ከዚህ በፊት መጣ፤ የወደዱትንም ሁሉ አደረጉበት እንጂ አላወቁትም፤ እንዲሁም ደግሞ የሰው ልጅ ከእነርሱ መከራ ይቀበል ዘንድ አለው አላቸው።

¹³Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

¹³በዚያን ጊዜ ደቀ መዛሙርቱ ስለ መጥምቁ ስለ ዮሐንስ እንደ ነገራቸው አስተዋሉ።

¹⁴And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,

¹⁴ወደ ሕዝቡም ሲደርሱ አንድ ሰው ወደ እርሱ ቀረበና ተንበርክኮ። ጌታ ሆይ፥ ልጄን ማርልኝ፥ በጨረቃ እየተነሣበት ክፉኛ ይሣቀያልና፤

¹⁵Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

¹⁵ብዙ ጊዜ በእሳት ብዙ ጊዜም በውኃ ይወድቃልና።

¹⁶And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.

¹⁶ወደ ደቀ መዛሙርትህም አመጣሁት ሊፈውሱትም አቃታቸው አለው።

¹⁷Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.

¹⁷ኢየሱስም መልሶ። የማታምን ጠማማ ትውልድ ሆይ፥ እስከ መቼ ከእናንተ ጋር እኖራለሁ? እስከ መቼስ እታገሣችኋለሁ? ወደዚህ ወደ እኔ አምጡት አለ።

¹⁸And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.

¹⁸ኢየሱስም ገሠጸው ጋኔኑም ከእርሱ ወጣ፥ ብላቴናውም ከዚያች ሰዓት ጀምሮ ተፈወሰ።

¹⁹Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?

¹⁹ከዚህ በኋላ ደቀ መዛሙርቱ ብቻቸውን ወደ ኢየሱስ ቀረቡና። እኛ ልናወጣው ያልቻልን ስለ ምን ነው? አሉት።

²⁰And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

²⁰ኢየሱስም። ስለ እምነታችሁ ማነስ ነው፤ እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ የሰናፍጭ ቅንጣት የሚያህል እምነት ቢኖራችሁ፥ ይህን ተራራ። ከዚህ ወደዚያ እለፍ ብትሉት ያልፋል፤ የሚሳናችሁም ነገር የለም።

²¹Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

²¹ይህ ዓይነት ግን ከጸሎትና ከጦም በቀር አይወጣም አላቸው።

²²And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:

²²በገሊላም ሲመላለሱ ኢየሱስ። የሰው ልጅ በሰዎች እጅ አልፎ ይሰጥ ዘንድ አለው፥ ይገድሉትማል፥

²³And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.

²³በሦስተኛውም ቀን ይነሣል አላቸው። እጅግም አዘኑ።

²⁴And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

²⁴ወደ ቅፍርናሆምም በመጡ ጊዜ ግብር የሚቀበሉ ሰዎች ወደ ጴጥሮስ ቀረቡና። መምህራችሁ ሁለቱን ዲናር*ፍ1* አይገብርምን? አሉት።

²⁵He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?

²⁵አዎን ይገብራል አለ። ወደ ቤትም በገባ ጊዜ ኢየሱስ አስቀድሞ። ስምዖን ሆይ፥ ምን ይመስልሃል? የምድር ነገሥታት ቀረጥና ግብር ከማን ይቀበላሉ? ከልጆቻቸውን ወይስ ከእንግዶች? አለው።

²⁶Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.

²⁶ጴጥሮስም። ከእንግዶች ባለው ጊዜ ኢየሱስ። እንኪያስ ልጆቻቸው ነጻ ናቸው።

²⁷Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

²⁷ነገር ግን እንዳናሰናክላቸው፥ ወደ ባሕር ሂድና መቃጥን ጣል፥ መጀመሪያም የሚወጣውን ዓሣ ውሰድና አፉን ስትከፍት እስታቴር*ፍ2* ታገኛለህ፤ ያን ወስደህ ስለ እኔና ስለ አንተ ስጣቸው አለው።
