Matthew

耶稣改变形象

1过了六天，耶稣带着彼得、雅各，和雅各的兄弟约翰，暗暗地上了高山，

2就在他们面前变了形象，脸面明亮如日头，衣裳洁白如光。

3忽然，有摩西、以利亚向他们显现，同耶稣说话。

4彼得对耶稣说：「主啊，我们在这里真好！你若愿意，我就在这里搭三座棚，一座为你，一座为摩西，一座为以利亚。」

5说话之间，忽然有一朵光明的云彩遮盖他们，且有声音从云彩里出来，说：「这是我的爱子，我所喜悦的。你们要听他！」

6门徒听见，就俯伏在地，极其害怕。

7耶稣进前来，摸他们，说：「起来，不要害怕！」

8他们举目不见一人，只见耶稣在那里。

9下山的时候，耶稣吩咐他们说：「人子还没有从死里复活，你们不要将所看见的告诉人。」

10门徒问耶稣说：「文士为什么说以利亚必须先来？」

11耶稣回答说：「以利亚固然先来，并要复兴万事；

12只是我告诉你们，以利亚已经来了，人却不认识他，竟任意待他。人子也将要这样受他们的害。」

13门徒这才明白耶稣所说的是指着施洗的约翰。

治好被鬼附身的孩子

14耶稣和门徒到了众人那里，有一个人来见耶稣，跪下，

15说：「主啊，怜悯我的儿子！他害癫痫的病很苦，屡次跌在火里，屡次跌在水里。

16我带他到你门徒那里，他们却不能医治他。」

17耶稣说：「嗳！这又不信又悖谬的世代啊，我在你们这里要到几时呢？我忍耐你们要到几时呢？把他带到我这里来吧！」

18耶稣斥责那鬼，鬼就出来；从此孩子就痊愈了。

19门徒暗暗地到耶稣跟前，说：「我们为什么不能赶出那鬼呢？」

20耶稣说：「是因你们的信心小。我实在告诉你们，你们若有信心，像一粒芥菜种，就是对这座山说：『你从这边挪到那边』，它也必挪去；并且你们没有一件不能做的事了。

21至于这一类的鬼，若不祷告、禁食，他就不出来。」

耶稣第二次预言受难和复活

22他们还住在加利利的时候，耶稣对门徒说：「人子将要被交在人手里。

23他们要杀害他，第三日他要复活。」门徒就大大地忧愁。

缴纳殿税

24到了迦百农，有收丁税的人来见彼得，说：「你们的先生不纳丁税吗？」

25彼得说：「纳。」他进了屋子，耶稣先向他说：「西门，你的意思如何？世上的君王向谁征收关税、丁税？是向自己的儿子呢？是向外人呢？」

26彼得说：「是向外人。」耶稣说：「既然如此，儿子就可以免税了。

27但恐怕触犯他们，你且往海边去钓鱼，把先钓上来的鱼拿起来，开了它的口，必得一块钱，可以拿去给他们，作你我的税银。」

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

2And he was transfigured before them. And his face did shine as the sun: and his garments became white as snow.

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

4And Peter answering, said to 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.

5And as he was yet speaking, behold a bright cloud overshadowed them. And lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased: hear ye him.

6And the disciples hearing, fell upon their face, and were very much afraid.

7And Jesus came and touched them: and said to them, Arise, and fear not.

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

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

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

11But he answering, said to them: Elias indeed shall come, and restore all things.

12But I say to you, that Elias is already come, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they had a mind. So also the Son of man shall suffer from them.

13Then the disciples understood, that he had spoken to them of John the Baptist.

14And when he was come to the multitude, there came to him a man falling down on his knees before him, saying: Lord, have pity on my son, for he is a lunatic, and suffereth much: for he falleth often into the fire, and often into the water.

15And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.

16Then Jesus answered and said: O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.

17And Jesus rebuked him, and the devil went out of him, and the child was cured from that hour.

18Then came the disciples to Jesus secretly, and said: Why could not we cast him out?

19Jesus said to them: Because of your unbelief. For, amen I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Remove from hence hither, and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

20But this kind is not cast out but by prayer and fasting.

21And when they abode together in Galilee, Jesus said to them: The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:

22And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall rise again. And they were troubled exceedingly.

23And when they were come to Capharnaum, they that received the didrachmas, came to Peter and said to him: Doth not your master pay the didrachmas?

24He said: Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying: What is thy opinion, Simon? The kings of the earth, of whom do they receive tribute or custom? of their own children, or of strangers?

25And he said: Of strangers. Jesus said to him: Then the children are free.

26But that we may not scandalize them, go to the sea, and cast in a hook: and that fish which shall first come up, take: and when thou hast opened its mouth, thou shalt find a stater: take that, and give it to them for me and thee.
