¹Ary hoy Izy taminy: Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa: Misy ny sasany eto izay tsy mba hanandrana fahafatesana mandra-pahitany ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra tonga amin'ny hery.

¹And he said to them, `Verily I say to you, That there are certain of those standing here, who may not taste of death till they see the reign of God having come in power.`

²Ary nony afaka henemana, Jesosy dia naka an'i Petera sy Jakoba ary Jaona ka nitondra azy nitokana niakatra ho any an-tendrombohitra avo anankiray; dia niova tarehy teo anatrehany Izy,

²And after six days doth Jesus take Peter, and James, and John, and bringeth them up to a high mount by themselves, alone, and he was transfigured before them,

³ary ny fitafiany niova nanelatrelatra sady fotsy indrindra, ka tsy misy mpamotsy lamba ambonin'ny tany mahafotsy toy izany.

³and his garments became glittering, white exceedingly, as snow, so as a fuller upon the earth is not able to whiten [them].

⁴Ary Elia sy Mosesy niseho taminy ka niresaka tamin'i Jesosy.

⁴And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

⁵Ary niteny Petera ka nanao tamin'i Jesosy hoe: Raby ô, tsara raha mitoetra eto isika; ary aoka hanao lay telo izahay: ny anankiray ho Anao, ny anankiray ho an'i Mosesy, ary ny anankiray ho an'i Elia.

⁵And Peter answering saith to Jesus, `Rabbi, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elijah one:`

⁶Fa tsy fantany izay havaliny, satria efa raiki-tahotra izy rehetra.

⁶for he was not knowing what he might say, for they were greatly afraid.

⁷Ary nisy rahona niseho nanarona azy; ary dia nisy feo avy tao amin'ny rahona nanao hoe: Ity no Zanako malalako, Izy no henoy.

⁷And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son — the Beloved, hear ye him;`

⁸Ary niaraka tamin'izay, nony nijery manodidina izy ireo, dia tsy nisy hitany intsony na iza na iza afa-tsy Jesosy irery ihany, Izay teo aminy.

⁸and suddenly, having looked around, they saw no one any more, but Jesus only with themselves.

⁹Ary nony nidina avy teo an-tendrombohitra Izy, dia nandrara azy Jesosy mba tsy hilazalaza amin'olona izay zavatra efa hitany mandra-pitsangan'ny Zanak'olona amin'ny maty.

⁹And as they are coming down from the mount, he charged them that they may declare to no one the things that they saw, except when the Son of Man may rise out of the dead;

¹⁰Ary nitana izany teny izany izy ka nifampaka saina ny amin'izay hevitr'izany fitsanganana amin'ny maty izany.

¹⁰and the thing they kept to themselves, questioning together what the rising out of the dead is.

¹¹Dia nanontany an'i Jesosy izy ka nanao hoe: Lazain'ny mpanora-dalàna fa Elia tsy maintsy ho avy aloha.[Na: Nahoana no lazain']

¹¹And they were questioning him, saying, that the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first.

¹²Ary Izy nanao taminy hoe: Elia dia avy aloha ihany ka mampody ny zavatra rehetra. Ary ahoana kosa no nanoratana ny amin'ny Zanak'olona fa tsy maintsy mijaly mafy Izy ka hatao tsinontsinona?

¹²And he answering said to them, `Elijah indeed, having come first, doth restore all things; and how hath it been written concerning the Son of Man, that many things he may suffer, and be set at nought?

¹³Nefa lazaiko aminareo: Efa tonga Elia, sady nataon'ny olona taminy izay sitraky ny fony araka ny nanoratana azy.

¹³But I say to you, That also Elijah hath come, and they did to him what they willed, as it hath been written of him.`

¹⁴Ary nony tonga teo amin'ny mpianatra izy, dia nahita vahoaka betsaka manodidina azy sy mpanora-dalàna niady hevitra taminy.

¹⁴And having come unto the disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning with them,

¹⁵Ary niaraka tamin'izay, nony nahita Azy ny vahoaka rehetra, dia talanjona ka nihazakazaka nanatona sy niarahaba Azy.

¹⁵and immediately, all the multitude having seen him, were amazed, and running near, were saluting him.

¹⁶Ary Izy nanontany azy hoe: Inona no iadianareo hevitra amin'ireto?

¹⁶And he questioned the scribes, `What dispute ye with them?`

¹⁷Ary ny anankiray tamin'ny vahoaka namaly ka nanao hoe: Mpampianatra ô, nentiko ho etỳ aminao ny zanako-lahy, izay azom-panahy moana;

¹⁷and one out of the multitude answering said, `Teacher, I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;

¹⁸ary na aiza na aiza no ahazoany azy, dia ampihinjitrinjiriny izy, ary mandoa vory, dia mikitro-nify sady valaka dia valaka; ary niteny tamin'ny mpianatrao aho mba hamoaka izany; fa tsy hainy.

¹⁸and wherever it doth seize him, it doth tear him, and he foameth, and gnasheth his teeth, and pineth away; and I spake to thy disciples that they may cast it out, and they were not able.`

¹⁹Ary Jesosy namaly azy hoe: Ry taranaka tsy mino, mandra-pahoviana no hitoerako aminareo? Mandra-pahoviana no handeferako aminareo? Ento etỳ amiko izy.

¹⁹And he answering him, said, `O generation unbelieving, till when shall I be with you? till when shall I suffer you? bring him unto me;`

²⁰Dia nentiny teo aminy izy; fa nony nahita an'i Jesosy izy, dia nampifanintontsintona ny tenany niaraka tamin'izay ny fanahy. Dia lavo tamin'ny tany izy sady nitsinkasinkasina sy nandoa vory.

²⁰and they brought him unto him, and he having seen him, immediately the spirit tare him, and he, having fallen upon the earth, was wallowing — foaming.

²¹Ary Jesosy nanontany an-drainy hoe: Hoatrinona izay no nahatongavan'izao taminy? Ary hoy izy: Hatry ny fony izy mbola zaza.

²¹And he questioned his father, `How long time is it since this came to him?` and he said, `From childhood,

²²Ary nazerany matetika tao anaty afo sy tao anaty rano izy hamonoany azy; fa raha mba misy hainao, dia mamindrà fo aminay, ka vonjeo izahay.

²²and many times also it cast him into fire, and into water, that it might destroy him; but if thou art able to do anything, help us, having compassion on us.`

²³Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Hainao hoe? Ny zavatra rehetra dia hain'ny mino.

²³And Jesus said to him, `If thou art able to believe! all things are possible to the one that is believing;`

²⁴Ary niaraka tamin'izay dia niantso ny rain-drazazalahy ka nanao hoe: Mino aho; vonjeo mba ho afaka amin'ny tsi-finoako.[Ampio hoe: sady nandrotsa-dranomaso].

²⁴and immediately the father of the child, having cried out, with tears said, `I believe, sir; be helping mine unbelief.`

²⁵Ary nony hitan'i Jesosy fa nihazakazaka nanatona azy ny vahoaka, dia niteny mafy ny fanahy maloto Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry fanahy moana sy marenina! Izaho mandidy anao: Mivoaha aminy, ka aza miditra ao anatiny intsony.

²⁵Jesus having seen that a multitude doth run together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, `Spirit — dumb and deaf — I charge thee, come forth out of him, and no more thou mayest enter into him;`

²⁶Ary rehefa ninananana izy sady nampifanintontsintona mafy ilay zazalahy, dia nivoaka taminy; ary efa toy ny maty, ka dia nataon'ny maro hoe: Maty.

²⁶and having cried, and rent him much, it came forth, and he became as dead, so that many said that he was dead,

²⁷Fa Jesosy nandray ny tànany ka nanarina azy; dia nitsangana izy.

²⁷but Jesus, having taken him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose.

²⁸Ary rehefa tonga tao an-trano Jesosy, dia nanontany Azy mangingina ny mpianany hoe: izahay tsy nahavoaka azy.[Na:Nahoana izahay no]

²⁸And he having come into the house, his disciples were questioning him by himself — `Why were we not able to cast it forth?`

²⁹Ary hoy Izy taminy: Iny karazana iny tsy mba azo avoaka na amin'inona na amin'inona, afa-tsy amin'ny fivavahana ihany.[Ampio hoe: sy ny fifadian-kanina].

²⁹And he said to them, `This kind is able to come forth with nothing except with prayer and fasting.`

³⁰Dia niala teo izy ka nizotra namaky an'i Galilia, ary tsy tian'i Jesosy ho fantatry ny olona izany.

³⁰And having gone forth thence, they were passing through Galilee, and he did not wish that any may know,

³¹Fa nampianatra ny mpianany Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ny Zanak'olona dia hatolotra eo an-tànan'ny olona ka hovonoiny; ary rehefa voavono Izy, dia hitsangana rehefa afaka hateloana.

³¹for he was teaching his disciples, and he said to them, `The Son of Man is being delivered to the hands of men, and they shall kill him, and having been killed the third day he shall rise,`

³²Fa izy ireo tsy nahafantatra izany teny izany sady natahotra hanontany Azy.

³²but they were not understanding the saying, and they were afraid to question him.

³³Ary tonga tao Kapernaomy izy; ary rehefa mby tao an-trano Jesosy, dia nanontany ny mpianany hoe: Inona no niadianareo hevitra teny an-dalana?

³³And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he was questioning them, `What were ye reasoning in the way among yourselves?`

³⁴Fa tsy nahateny izy, satria efa niady hevitra teny an-dalana izy ny amin'izay lehibe indrindra.

³⁴and they were silent, for with one another they did reason in the way who is greater;

³⁵Ary rehefa tafapetraka Jesosy, dia niantso ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha misy te-ho voalohany, dia hatao farany amin'izy rehetra sy ho mpanompo'izy rehetra izy.

³⁵and having sat down he called the twelve, and he saith to them, `If any doth will to be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.`

³⁶Ary nandray zaza Izy ka nametraka azy teo afovoany; ary raha notrotroiny ilay zaza, dia hoy Izy tamin'ny mpianany:

³⁶And having taken a child, he set him in the midst of them, and having taken him in his arms, said to them,

³⁷Na zovy na zovy no mandray zaza iray tahaka itony amin'ny anarako, dia mandray Ahy; ary na zovy na zovy no mandray Ahy, dia tsy mandray Ahy, fa Izay naniraka Ahy.

³⁷`Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth not receive me, but Him who sent me.`

³⁸Ary hoy Jaona taminy: Mpampianatra ô, nahita olona anankiray namoaka demonia tamin'ny anaranao izahay, ka noraranay izy, satria tsy nanaraka antsika.

³⁸And John did answer him, saying, `Teacher, we saw a certain one in thy name casting out demons, who doth not follow us, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow us.`

³⁹Fa hoy Jesosy: Aza mandrara azy; fa tsy misy olona izay hanao asa lehibe amin'ny anarako ka hahateny ratsy Ahy vetivety.

³⁹And Jesus said, `Forbid him not, for there is no one who shall do a mighty work in my name, and shall be able readily to speak evil of me:

⁴⁰Fa izay tsy manohitra antsika dia momba antsika.

⁴⁰for he who is not against us is for us;

⁴¹Fa na iza na iza no manome anareo rano eran'ny kapoaka hosotroinareo, satria an'i Kristy ianareo, dia lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa fa tsy ho very ny valim-pitiany.

⁴¹for whoever may give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because ye are Christ`s, verily I say to you, he may not lose his reward;

⁴²Ary na iza na iza no mahatafintohina na iray aza amin'ireo madinika mino Ahy ireo, dia tsara ho azy, raha anantonana vato lehibe fikosoham-bary ny vozony, ka hatsipy ao anaty ranomasina izy.

⁴²and whoever may cause to stumble one of the little ones believing in me, better is it for him if a millstone is hanged about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea.

⁴³Ary raha ny tananao no manafintohina anao, tapaho izy; fa tsara ho anao ny hiditra kilemaina any amin'ny fiainana noho ny manana tanana roa, nefa hariana any amin'ny helo, dia any amin'ny afo tsy azo vonoina. [ Gr. Gehena]

⁴³`And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee maimed to enter into the life, than having the two hands, to go away to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable —

⁴⁴[ Ampio hoe: any amin'ny kankana tsy maty, ary ny afo tsy vonoina]

⁴⁴where there worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.

⁴⁵Ary raha ny tongotrao no manafintohina anao, tapaho izy; fa tsara ho anao ny hiditra mandringa any amin'ny fiainana noho ny manana tongotra roa, nefa hariana any amin'ny helo.

⁴⁵`And if thy foot may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into the life lame, than having the two feet to be cast to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable —

⁴⁶[Ampio hoe: any amin'ny afo tsy azo vonoina; any ny kankany tsy maty, ary ny afo tsy vonoina]

⁴⁶where there worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.

⁴⁷Ary raha ny masonao no manafintohina anao, esory hiala izy: fa tsara ho anao ny hiditra toka-maso amin'ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra noho ny manana maso roa, nefa hariana any amin'ny helo;

⁴⁷And if thine eye may cause thee to stumble, cast it out; it is better for thee one-eyed to enter into the reign of God, than having two eyes, to be cast to the gehenna of the fire —

⁴⁸any ny kankany tsy maty, ary ny afo tsy vonoina.

⁴⁸where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched;

⁴⁹Fa samy ho voasira amin'ny afo izy rehetra.[Ampio hoe: ary ny fanatitra rehetra samy ho voasira amin'ny fanasina]Tsara ny sira, fa raha tonga matsatso izy, inona no ho entinareo mampody ny tsirony? Aoka hisy sira ao anatinareo, ka mihavàna tsara ianareo.

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

⁵⁰Tsara ny sira, fa raha tonga matsatso izy, inona no ho entinareo mampody ny tsirony? Aoka hisy sira ao anatinareo, ka mihavàna tsara ianareo.

⁵⁰The salt [is] good, but if the salt may become saltless, in what will ye season [it]? Have in yourselves salt, and have peace in one another.`
