1Po šiestich dňoch vzal Ježiš so sebou Petra, Jakuba a jeho brata Jána a vyšli na vysoký vrch, aby boli sami.2Zrazu učeníci spozorovali, že sa Ježišov vzhľad zmenil. Tvár mu oslepujúco žiarila ako slnko a odev mu zbelel ako sneh.3Vtom uvideli Mojžiša a Eliáša, ako sa s ním zhovárajú.4Peter zvolal: „Pane, ako je nám tu dobre. Ak chceš, postavíme vám tu tri prístrešia, jeden tebe, druhý Mojžišovi, tretí Eliášovi, a zostaneme tu.“5Kým to však dopovedal, zahalil ich oblak a počuli hlas: „Toto je môj milovaný Syn, moje potešenie, toho poslúchajte!“6Keď to učeníci počuli, padli tvárou na zem a veľmi sa báli.7Ježiš k nim prišiel, dotkol sa ich a povedal: „Vstaňte a nebojte sa!“8Keď sa rozhliadli, videli iba Ježiša.9Ako zostupovali z vrchu, rozkázal im: „Nikomu nevravte, čo ste videli, kým nevstanem z mŕtvych!“10Učeníci sa ho spytovali: „Prečo učitelia Zákona zdôrazňujú, že pred príchodom Mesiáša má prísť Eliáš?“11Ježiš im odpovedal: „Majú pravdu. On má prísť a všetko pripraviť.12Ale ja vám hovorím, že Eliáš už prišiel, ale oni ho nespoznali a veľmi zle s ním zaobchádzali. Aj pre mňa chystajú iba utrpenie.“13Vtedy učeníci pochopili, že hovorí o Jánovi Krstiteľovi.
Uzdravenie námesačného chlapca
14Na úpätí vrchu čakal na nich veľký zástup. Nejaký muž si kľakol pred Ježiša a prosil ho:15„Pane, zľutuj sa nad mojím synom! Je námesačný a hrozne trpí. Neraz padne do ohňa alebo do vody.16Priviedol som ho k tvojim učeníkom, ale nevedeli mu pomôcť.“17Ježiš si vzdychol: „Čo je to s vami? Neveríte a prekážate Božej moci. Dokedy mám mať s vami trpezlivosť? Priveďte mi ho sem!“18Potom Ježiš prikázal démonovi, ktorý zapríčinil chorobu, aby z chlapca vyšiel. A od tej chvíle bol chlapec zdravý.19Keď potom učeníci s Ježišom osameli, spýtali sa ho: „Prečo sme ho my nemohli uzdraviť?“20Ježiš im odpovedal: „Lebo málo veríte. Ak budete mať vieru aspoň ako horčičné semienko a poviete tomuto vrchu: ‚Posuň sa!‘, poslúchne vás. Nič pre vás nebude nemožné.21Ale vyháňanie tohto druhu démonov vyžaduje opravdivú modlitbu a pôst.22Keď prišli do Galiley, Ježiš im povedal: „Mám byť vydaný do rúk tých, ktorí ma zabijú.23Ale na tretí deň vstanem z mŕtvych.“ Učeníkov to veľmi zarmútilo.
Chrámová daň
24V Kafarnaume prišli k Petrovi výbercovia chrámovej dane a spýtali sa: „Tvoj Majster neplatí daň?“25„Platí,“ odpovedal Peter.Len čo vošiel do domu, skôr ako otvoril ústa, predišiel ho Ježiš otázkou: „Čo myslíš, Peter, od koho vyberajú králi a panovníci dane a poplatky? Od synov alebo od cudzích?“26„Od cudzích,“ odpovedal Peter.„Tak vidíš,“ povedal Ježiš, „synovia sú oslobodení od tejto povinnosti.27Ale nebudem ich zbytočne dráždiť. Choď k jazeru, hoď udicu a prvej rybe, ktorú chytíš, otvor ústa. Nájdeš v nich mincu. Zanes im ju a tá bude stačiť na poplatok za nás oboch.“
English Standard Version
The Transfiguration
1And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.2And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light.3And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him.4And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.”5He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son,* with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.”6When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified.7But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.”8And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.9And as they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Tell no one the vision, until the Son of Man is raised from the dead.”10And the disciples asked him, “Then why do the scribes say that first Elijah must come?”11He answered, “Elijah does come, and he will restore all things.12But I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they pleased. So also the Son of Man will certainly suffer at their hands.”13Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.
Jesus Heals a Boy with a Demon
14And when they came to the crowd, a man came up to him and, kneeling before him,15said, “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he has seizures and he suffers terribly. For often he falls into the fire, and often into the water.16And I brought him to your disciples, and they could not heal him.”17And Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me.”18And Jesus rebuked the demon,* and it* came out of him, and the boy was healed instantly.*19Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”20He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”*
Jesus Again Foretells Death, Resurrection
22As they were gathering* in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men,23and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day.” And they were greatly distressed.
The Temple Tax
24When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax went up to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the tax?”25He said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?”26And when he said, “From others,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free.27However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel.* Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself.”
