¹وبعد ستة ايام اخذ يسوع بطرس ويعقوب ويوحنا اخاه وصعد بهم الى جبل عال منفردين.

¹And after six days Jesus takes with [him] Peter, and James, and John his brother, and brings them up into a high mountain apart.

²وتغيّرت هيئته قدّامهم واضاء وجهه كالشمس وصارت ثيابه بيضاء كالنور.

²And he was transfigured before them. And his face shone as the sun, and his garments became white as the light;

³واذا موسى وايليا قد ظهرا لهم يتكلمان معه.

³and lo, Moses and Elias appeared to them talking with him.

⁴فجعل بطرس يقول ليسوع يا رب جيد ان نكون ههنا. فان شئت نصنع هنا ثلاث مظال. لك واحدة ولموسى واحدة ولايليا واحدة.

⁴And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good we should be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles: for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elias.

⁵وفيما هو يتكلم اذا سحابة نيرة ظللتهم وصوت من السحابة قائلا هذا هو ابني الحبيب الذي به سررت. له اسمعوا.

⁵While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, *This* is my beloved Son, in whom I have found my delight: hear him.

⁶ولما سمع التلاميذ سقطوا على وجوههم وخافوا جدا.

⁶And the disciples hearing [it] fell upon their faces, and were greatly terrified.

⁷فجاء يسوع ولمسهم وقال قوموا ولا تخافوا.

⁷And Jesus coming to [them] touched them, and said, Rise up, and be not terrified.

⁸فرفعوا اعينهم ولم يروا احدا الا يسوع وحده

⁸And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus alone.

⁹وفيما هم نازلون من الجبل اوصاهم يسوع قائلا لا تعلموا احدا بما رأيتم حتى يقوم ابن الانسان من الاموات.

⁹And as they descended from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, until the Son of man be risen up from among [the] dead.

¹⁰وسأله تلاميذه قائلين فلماذا يقول الكتبة ان ايليا ينبغي ان يأتي اولا.

¹⁰And [his] disciples demanded of him saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first have come?

¹¹فاجاب يسوع وقال لهم ان ايليا يأتي اولا ويردّ كل شيء.

¹¹And he answering said to them, Elias indeed comes first and will restore all things.

¹²ولكني اقول لكم ان ايليا قد جاء ولم يعرفوه بل عملوا به كل ما ارادوا. كذلك ابن الانسان ايضا سوف يتألم منهم.

¹²But I say unto you that Elias has already come, and they have not known him, but have done unto him whatever they would. Thus also the Son of man is about to suffer from them.

¹³حينئذ فهم التلاميذ انه قال لهم عن يوحنا المعمدان

¹³Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the baptist.

¹⁴ولما جاءوا الى الجمع تقدم اليه رجل جاثيا له

¹⁴And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying,

¹⁵وقائلا يا سيد ارحم ابني فانه يصرع ويتألم شديدا. ويقع كثيرا في النار وكثيرا في الماء.

¹⁵Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is lunatic, and suffers sorely; for often he falls into the fire and often into the water.

¹⁶واحضرته الى تلاميذك فلم يقدروا ان يشفوه.

¹⁶And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.

¹⁷فاجاب يسوع وقال ايها الجيل غير المؤمن الملتوي. الى متى اكون معكم. الى متى احتملكم. قدموه اليّ ههنا.

¹⁷And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to me.

¹⁸فانتهره يسوع فخرج منه الشيطان فشفي الغلام من تلك الساعة.

¹⁸And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out from him, and the boy was healed from that hour.

¹⁹ثم تقدم التلاميذ الى يسوع على انفراد وقالوا لماذا لم نقدر نحن ان نخرجه.

¹⁹Then the disciples, coming to Jesus apart, said [to him], Why were not *we* able to cast him out?

²⁰فقال لهم يسوع لعدم ايمانكم. فالحق اقول لكم لو كان لكم ايمان مثل حبة خردل لكنتم تقولون لهذا الجبل انتقل من هنا الى هناك فينتقل ولا يكون شيء غير ممكن لديكم.

²⁰And he says to them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard [seed], ye shall say to this mountain, Be transported hence there, and it shall transport itself; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

²¹واما هذا الجنس فلا يخرج الا بالصلاة والصوم

²¹But this kind does not go out but by prayer and fasting.

²²وفيما هم يترددون في الجليل قال لهم يسوع. ابن الانسان سوف يسلم الى ايدي الناس

²²And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into [the] hands of men,

²³فيقتلونه وفي اليوم الثالث يقوم. فحزنوا جدا

²³and they shall kill him; and the third day he shall be raised up. And they were greatly grieved.

²⁴ولما جاءوا الى كفر ناحوم تقدم الذين ياخذون الدرهمين الى بطرس وقالوا أما يوفي معلمكم الدرهمين.

²⁴And when they came to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your teacher not pay the didrachmas?

²⁵قال بلى. فلما دخل البيت سبقه يسوع قائلا ماذا تظن يا سمعان. ممن ياخذ ملوك الارض الجباية او الجزية أمن بنيهم ام من الاجانب.

²⁵He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What dost thou think, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive custom or tribute? from their own sons or from strangers?

²⁶قال له بطرس من الاجانب. قال له يسوع فاذا البنون احرار.

²⁶Peter says to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.

²⁷ولكن لئلا نعثرهم اذهب الى البحر وألق صنارة والسمكة التي تطلع اولا خذها ومتى فتحت فاها تجد استارا فخذه واعطهم عني وعنك

²⁷But that we may not be an offence to them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take the first fish that comes up, and when thou hast opened its mouth thou wilt find a stater; take that and give it to them for me and thee.
