Luke 9

The Darby Translation DBY

1 And having called together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases,

2 and sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.

3 And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; nor to have two body-coats apiece.

4 And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide and thence go forth.

5 And as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a witness against them.

6 And going forth they passed through the villages, announcing the glad tidings and healing everywhere.

7 And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things which were done [by him], and was in perplexity, because it was said by some that John was risen from among [the] dead,

8 and by some that Elias had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

9 And Herod said, John *I* have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things? and he sought to see him.

10 And the apostles having returned related to him whatever they had done. And he took them and withdrew apart into [a desert place of] a city called Bethsaida.

11 But the crowds knowing [it] followed him; and he received them and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those that had need of healing.

12 But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and [into] the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place.

13 And he said to them, Give *ye them to eat. And they said, We have not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless *we* should go and buy food for all this people;

14 for they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in companies by fifties.

15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

16 And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven he blessed them, and broke and gave to the disciples to set before the crowd.

17 And they all ate and were filled; and there was taken up of what had remained over and above to them in fragments twelve hand-baskets.

18 And it came to pass as he was praying alone, his disciples were with him, and he asked them saying, Who do the crowds say that I am?

19 But they answering said, John the baptist; but others, Elias; and others, that one of the old prophets has risen again.

20 And he said to them, But *ye*, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

21 But, earnestly charging them, he enjoined [them] to say this to no man,

22 saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

23 And he said to [them] all, If any one will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me;

24 for whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, *he* shall save it.

25 For what shall a man profit if he shall have gained the whole world, and have destroyed, or come under the penalty of the loss of himself?

26 For whosoever shall have been ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he shall come in his glory, and [in that] of the Father, and of the holy angels.

27 But I say unto you of a truth, There are some of those standing here who shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God.

28 And it came to pass after these words, about eight days, that taking Peter and John and James he went up into a mountain to pray.

29 And as he prayed the fashion of his countenance became different and his raiment white [and] effulgent.

30 And lo, two men talked with him, who were Moses and Elias,

31 who, appearing in glory, spoke of his departure which he was about to accomplish in Jerusalem.

32 But Peter and those with him were oppressed with sleep: but having fully awoke up they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.

33 And it came to pass as they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

34 But as he was saying these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed them, and they feared as they entered into the cloud:

35 and there was a voice out of the cloud saying, *This* is my beloved Son: hear him.

36 And as the voice was [heard] Jesus was found alone: and *they* kept silence, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.

37 And it came to pass on the following day, when they came down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.

38 And lo, a man from the crowd cried out saying, Teacher, I beseech thee look upon my son, for he is mine only child:

39 and behold, a spirit takes him, and suddenly he cries out, and it tears him with foaming, and with difficulty departs from him after crushing him.

40 And I besought thy disciples that they might cast him out, and they could not.

41 And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you and suffer you? Bring hither thy son.

42 But as he was yet coming, the demon tore him and dragged him all together. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child and gave him back to his father.

43 And all were astonished at the glorious greatness of God. And as all wondered at all the things which [Jesus] did, he said to his disciples,

44 Do *ye* let these words sink into your ears. For the Son of man is about to be delivered into men's hands.

45 But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them that they should not perceive it. And they feared to ask him concerning this saying.

46 And a reasoning came in amongst them, who should be [the] greatest of them.

47 And Jesus, seeing the reasoning of their heart, having taken a little child set it by him,

48 and said to them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receives me, and whosoever shall receive me receives him that sent me. For he who is the least among you all, *he* is great.

49 And John answering said, Master, we saw some one casting out demons in thy name, and we forbad him, because he follows not with us.

50 And Jesus said to him, Forbid [him] not, for he that is not against you is for you.

51 And it came to pass when the days of his receiving up were fulfilled, that *he* stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.

52 And he sent messengers before his face. And having gone they entered into a village of the Samaritans that they might make ready for him.

53 And they did not receive him, because his face was [turned as] going to Jerusalem.

54 And his disciples James and John seeing [it] said, Lord, wilt thou that we speak [that] fire come down from heaven and consume them, as also Elias did?

55 But turning he rebuked them [and said, Ye know not of what spirit ye are].

56 And they went to another village.

57 And it came to pass as they went in the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wheresoever thou goest, Lord.

58 And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes and the birds of the heaven roosting-places, but the Son of man has not where he may lay his head.

59 And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me to go first and bury my father.

60 But Jesus said to him, Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, but do *thou* go and announce the kingdom of God.

61 And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid adieu to those at my house.

62 But Jesus said to him, No one having laid his hand on [the] plough and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God.

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 Jesus called the twelve apostles together and gave them power and authority over every demon and power and authority to cure diseases.

2 He sent them to spread the message about the kingdom of God and to cure the sick.

3 He told them, "Don't take anything along on the trip. Don't take a walking stick, traveling bag, any food, money, or a change of clothes.

4 When you go into a home, stay there until you're ready to leave.

5 If people don't welcome you, leave that city, and shake its dust off your feet as a warning to them."

6 The apostles went from village to village, told the Good News, and cured the sick everywhere.

7 Herod the ruler heard about everything that was happening. He didn't know what to make of it. Some people were saying that John had come back to life.

8 Others said that Elijah had appeared, and still others said that one of the prophets from long ago had come back to life.

9 Herod said, "I had John's head cut off. Who is this person I'm hearing so much about?" So Herod wanted to see Jesus.

10 The apostles came back and told Jesus everything they had done. He took them with him to a city called Bethsaida so that they could be alone.

11 But the crowds found out about this and followed him. He welcomed them, talked to them about the kingdom of God, and cured those who were sick.

12 Toward the end of the day, the twelve apostles came to him. They said to him, "Send the crowd to the closest villages and farms so that they can find some food and a place to stay. No one lives around here."

13 Jesus replied, "You give them something to eat." They said to him, "We have five loaves of bread and two fish. Unless we go to buy food for all these people, that's all we have."

14 (There were about five thousand men.) Then he told his disciples, "Have them sit in groups of about fifty."

15 So they did this.

16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, looked up to heaven, and blessed the food. He broke the loaves apart and kept giving them to the disciples to give to the crowd.

17 All of them ate as much as they wanted. When they picked up the leftover pieces, they filled twelve baskets.

18 Once when Jesus was praying privately and his disciples were with him, he asked them, "Who do people say I am?"

19 They answered, "Some say you are John the Baptizer, others Elijah, and still others say that one of the prophets from long ago has come back to life."

20 He asked them, "But who do you say I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Messiah, whom God has sent."

21 He ordered them not to tell this to anyone.

22 Jesus said that the Son of Man would have to suffer a lot. He would be rejected by the leaders, the chief priests, and the scribes. He would be killed, but on the third day he would come back to life.

23 He said to all of them, "Those who want to come with me must say no to the things they want, pick up their crosses every day, and follow me.

24 Those who want to save their lives will lose them. But those who lose their lives for me will save them.

25 What good does it do for people to win the whole world but lose their lives by destroying them?

26 If people are ashamed of me and what I say, the Son of Man will be ashamed of those people when he comes in the glory that he shares with the Father and the holy angels.

27 "I can guarantee this truth: Some people who are standing here will not die until they see the kingdom of God."

28 About eight days after he had said this, Jesus took Peter, John, and James with him and went up a mountain to pray.

29 While Jesus was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became dazzling white.

30 Suddenly, both Moses and Elijah were talking with him.

31 They appeared in heavenly glory and were discussing Jesus' approaching death and what he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem.

32 Peter and the men with him were sleeping soundly. When they woke up, they saw Jesus' glory and the two men standing with him.

33 As Moses and Elijah were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, "Teacher, it's good that we're here. Let's put up three tents--one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." Peter didn't know what he was saying.

34 While he was saying this, a cloud overshadowed them. They were frightened as they went into the cloud.

35 A voice came out of the cloud and said, "This is my Son, whom I have chosen. Listen to him!"

36 After the voice had spoken, they saw that Jesus was alone. The disciples said nothing, and for some time they told no one about what they had seen.

37 The next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a large crowd met Jesus.

38 A man in the crowd shouted, "Teacher, I beg you to look at my son. He's my only child.

39 Whenever a spirit takes control of him, he shrieks, goes into convulsions, and foams at the mouth. After a struggle, the spirit goes away, leaving the child worn out.

40 I begged your disciples to force the spirit out of him, but they couldn't do it."

41 Jesus answered, "You unbelieving and corrupt generation! How long must I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here!"

42 While he was coming [to Jesus], the demon knocked the boy to the ground and threw him into convulsions. Jesus ordered the evil spirit to leave. He cured the boy and gave him back to his father.

43 Everyone was amazed to see God's wonderful power. Everyone was amazed at all the things that Jesus was doing. So he said to his disciples,

44 "Listen carefully to what I say. The Son of Man will be betrayed and handed over to people."

45 They didn't know what he meant. The meaning was hidden from them so that they didn't understand it. Besides, they were afraid to ask him about what he had said.

46 A discussion started among them about who would be the greatest.

47 Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he took a little child and had him stand beside him.

48 Then he said to them, "Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me. Whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. The one who is least among all of you is the one who is greatest."

49 John replied, "Master, we saw someone forcing demons out of a person by using the power and authority of your name. We tried to stop him because he was not one of us."

50 Jesus said to him, "Don't stop him! Whoever isn't against you is for you."

51 The time was coming closer for Jesus to be taken to heaven. So he was determined to go to Jerusalem.

52 He sent messengers ahead of him. They went into a Samaritan village to arrange a place for him to stay.

53 But the people didn't welcome him, because he was on his way to Jerusalem.

54 James and John, his disciples, saw this. They asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to burn them up?"

55 But he turned and corrected them.

56 So they went to another village.

57 As they were walking along the road, a man said to Jesus, "I'll follow you wherever you go."

58 Jesus told him, "Foxes have holes, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to sleep."

59 He told another man, "Follow me!" But the man said, "Sir, first let me go to bury my father."

60 But Jesus told him, "Let the dead bury their own dead. You must go everywhere and tell about the kingdom of God."

61 Another said, "I'll follow you, sir, but first let me tell my family goodbye."

62 Jesus said to him, "Whoever starts to plow and looks back is not fit for the kingdom of God."
