Luke 9

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 Then calling together the twelve apostles, he gave them power and authority over all devils and to cure diseases.

2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.

3 And he said to them: Take nothing for your journey, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.

4 And whatsoever house you shall enter into, abide there and depart not from thence.

5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off even the dust of your feet, for a testimony against them.

6 And going out, they went about through the towns, preaching the gospel and healing every where.

7 Now Herod, the tetrarch, heard of all things that were done by him. And he was in a doubt, because it was said

8 By some that John was risen from the dead: but by other some, that Elias had appeared: and by others, that one of the old prophets was 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, when they were returned, told him all they had done. And taking them, he went aside into a desert place, apart, which belongeth to Bethsaida.

11 Which when the people knew, they followed him: and he received them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God and healed them who had need of healing.

12 Now the day began to decline. And the twelve came and said to him: Send away the multitude, that, going into the towns and villages round about, they may lodge and get victuals; for we are here in a desert place.

13 But he said to them: Give you them to eat. And they said: We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless perhaps, we should go and buy food for all this multitude.

14 Now there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples: Make them sit down by fifties in a company.

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

16 And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven and blessed them: and he broke and distributed to his disciples, to set before the multitude.

17 And they did all eat and were filled. And there were taken up of fragments that remained to them, twelve baskets.

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

19 But they answered and said: John the Baptist; but some say Elias: and others say that one of the former prophets is risen again.

20 And he said to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answering, said: The Christ of God.

21 But he strictly charging them, commanded they should tell this to no man.

22 Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes and be killed and the third day rise again.

23 And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: for he that shall lose his life for my sake shall save it.

25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world and lose himself and cast away himself?

26 For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him the Son of man shall be ashamed, when he shall come in his majesty and that of his Father and of the holy angels.

27 But I tell you of a truth: There are some standing here that shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God.

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

29 And whilst he prayed, the shape of his countenance was altered and his raiment became white and glittering.

30 And behold two men were talking with him. And they were Moses and Elias,

31 Appearing in majesty. And they spoke of his decease that he should accomplish in Jerusalem.

32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep. And waking, they saw his glory and the two men that stood with him.

33 And it came to pass that, as they were departing from him, Peter saith 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 And as he spoke these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed them. And they were afraid when they entered into the cloud.

35 And a voice came out of the cloud; saying: This is my beloved son. Hear him.

36 And whilst the voice was uttered Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace and told no man in those days any of these things which they had seen.

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

38 And behold a man among the crowd cried out, saying: Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only one.

39 And lo, a spirit seizeth him, and he suddenly crieth out, and he throweth him down and teareth him, so that he foameth; and bruising him, he hardly departeth from him.

40 And I desired thy disciples to cast him out: and they could not.

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

42 And as he was coming to him, the devil threw him down and tore him.

43 And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and cured the boy and restored him to his father.

44 And all were astonished at the mighty power of God. But while all wondered at all the things he did, he said to his disciples: Lay you up in your hearts these words, for it shall come to pass that the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

45 But they understood not this word: and it was hid from them, so that they perceived it not. And they were afraid to ask him concerning this word.

46 And there entered a thought into them, which of them should be greater.

47 But Jesus seeing the thoughts of their hearts, took a child and set him by him,

48 And said to them: Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me; and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me. For he that is the lesser among you all, he is the greater.

49 And John, answering, said: Master, we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name: and we forbade him, because he followeth 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 assumption were accomplishing, that he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.

52 And he sent messengers before his face: and going, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.

53 And they received him not, because his face was of one going to Jerusalem.

54 And when his disciples, James and John, had seen this, they said: Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven and consume them?

55 And turning, he rebuked them, saying: you know not of what spirit you are.

56 The Son of man came not to destroy souls, but to save. And they went into another town.

57 And it came to pass, as they walked in the way, that a certain man said to him: I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

58 Jesus said to him: The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air nests: but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

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

60 And Jesus said to him: Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.

61 And another said: I will follow thee, Lord; but let me first take my leave of them that are at my house.

62 Jesus said to him: No man putting his hand to 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."
