¹DESPUES di y saes na jaane, si Jesus jacone si Pedro, yan si Santiago, yan si Juan cheluña, ya jacone julo gui un taquilo na finabeca, na sumajnge.

¹After six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.

²Ya jaaggo y jechuraña gui menanñija; ya y mataña manina calang y atdao; ya y magaguña apaca calang y manana.

²He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.

³Ya estagüe, na manmato güiya sija si Moises yan si Elias, na manguecuentos yan güiya.

³Behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them talking with him.

⁴Ya manope si Pedro, ilegña as Jesus: Señot, mauleg na mangaeguejit güine: yaguin malagojao, bae jufatinas güine tres na tabetnaculo; para jago y uno, para si Moises y uno, yan para si Elias y uno.

⁴Peter answered, and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let’s make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

⁵Anae cumuecuentos güe, estagüe, un malag na mapagajes jananujong gui jiloñija, ya, estagüe, un inagang gui mapagajes na ilegña; Estagüiya y Lajijo na maguflie, na guefyajo: ecungog güe.

⁵While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. Behold, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”

⁶Ya anae jajungog este y disipulo sija, manpodong gui jilo matañija ya mangosmaañao.

⁶When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.

⁷Ayo nae si Jesus mato ya manpinacha, ilegña: Fangajulo ya chamiyo fanmaaañao.

⁷Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up, and don’t be afraid.”

⁸Ya anae jajatsa y atadogñija, taya jalie na si Jesusja.

⁸Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.

⁹Ya anae manunog papa guine y finabeca, si Jesus mantinago ya ilegña: Chamiyo fanmañangangane ni jaye ni liniimiyo, asta qui y Lajin taotao esta cajulo gui entalo manmatae.

⁹As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Don’t tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”

¹⁰Ayo nae y disipuluña sija mafaesen güe ya ilegñija: Jafa nae na ilegñija y escriba sija na si Elias ufato finena?

¹⁰His disciples asked him, saying, “Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

¹¹Ya inepe as Jesus, ilegña: Magajet na si Elias ufato finena, ya ujananalo todo y güinaja.

¹¹Jesus answered them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore all things,

¹²Lao guajo sumangane jamyo, na si Elias esta mato, ya ti matungogüe: lao mafatinas guiya güiya todo y malagoñija. Taegüenaoja locue y Lajin taotao upadese nu sija.

¹² but I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they didn’t recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them.”

¹³Ayo nae y disipulo sija jatungo na mansinangane sija as Juan Bautista.

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

¹⁴¶ Ya anae manmato sija gui linajyan taotao, mato guiya güiya un taotao na dinimumuye güe ya ilegña:

¹⁴When they came to the multitude, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, saying,

¹⁵Señot, gaease ni lajijo; sa malango baba, ya gogosjapadese; sa megae nae podong gui guafe, yan megae nae podong gui janom.

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

¹⁶Ya guinin juchulie guato y disipulumo, lao tisiña manajomio.

¹⁶So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him.”

¹⁷Ya manope si Jesus, ilegña: O generasion na ti manjonggue yan manchatpayon! asta ngaean nae utafanjijitaja? asta ngaean nae jususungonja jamyo? Chulie yo fan mague.

¹⁷Jesus answered, “Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”

¹⁸Ya jalalatde si Jesus y anite, ya mapos gui malango, ya y patgon jomlo desde ayo na ora.

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

¹⁹Ayo nae manmato y disipulo sija gui as Jesus, ya ilegñija: Jafajam mina ti siña inyite juyong?

¹⁹Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, “Why weren’t we able to cast it out?”

²⁰Si Jesus ilegña nu sija: Pot diquique na jinengguenmiyo: sa magajet jusangane jamyo, na yanguin mangaejinenggue jamyo, calang y pepitas mostasa, injaalog ni este na jalom tano: Janao güine; ya ujanao, ya taya ti siña para jamyo.

²⁰He said to them, “Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

²¹(Lao este na classe ti jumanao juyong, yaguin ti y minauleg y tinayuyut.)

²¹ But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting.”

²²¶ Ya anae manmamocat guiya Galilea, ilegña si Jesus nu sija: Y Lajin taotao umaentrega gui canae y taotao sija;

²²While they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,

²³Ya umapuno; lao y mina tres na jaane, ucajulo. Ya sija ninafangostriste.

²³ and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up.” They were exceedingly sorry.

²⁴¶ Ya anae manmato guiya Capernaum, manmato gui as Pedro ayosija y manmangongobbla y medio siclo, y tributo, ya ilegñija: Ada ti manapapase y maestronmiyo y medio siclo y tributo?

²⁴When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma coins A didrachma is a Greek silver coin worth 2 drachmas, about as much as 2 Roman denarii, or about 2 days’ wages. It was commonly used to pay the half-shekel temple tax, because 2 drachmas were worth one half shekel of silver. came to Peter, and said, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the didrachma?”

²⁵Güiya ilegña: Junggan. Ya anae jumalom güe gui jalom guma, si Jesus, cuenentuse güe antes, ilegña: Jafa jinasosomo Simon? Y ray y tano sija, jaye jacocobbla tributo pat senso? y famaguonñija, pat y taotaojuyong?

²⁵He said, “Yes.” When he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?”

²⁶Ya anae ilegña, Y taotaojuyong; si Jesus ilegña nu güiya: Ayo nae y famaguon manlibre.

²⁶Peter said to him, “From strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Therefore the children are exempt.

²⁷Lao para mungajit fumatinas y tinempo para sija, Janao falag y tase, ya unyute y jagüet, ya y finenana na güijan na mato, cone; ya an unbaba y pachotña, unsoda y un siclo; chule este ya nae para guajo yan para jago.

²⁷ But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. A stater is a silver coin equivalent to four Attic or two Alexandrian drachmas, or a Jewish shekel: just exactly enough to cover the half-shekel temple tax for two people. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”
