11Then they asked him, "Why do the experts in the law say that Elijah must come first?"11And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?
12He said to them, "Elijah does indeed come first, and restores all things. And why is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be despised?12And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.
13But I tell you that Elijah has certainly come, and they did to him whatever they wanted, just as it is written about him." 13But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
14When they came to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and experts in the law arguing with them.14And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.
15When the whole crowd saw him, they were amazed and ran at once and greeted him.15And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.
16He asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?"16And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?
17A member of the crowd said to him, "Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that makes him mute.17And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;
18Whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, but they were not able to do so."18And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.
19He answered them, "You unbelieving generation! How much longer must I be with you? How much longer must I endure you? Bring him to me."19He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

23Then Jesus said to him, "'If you are able?' All things are possible for the one who believes."23Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
24Immediately the father of the boy cried out and said, "I believe; help my unbelief!" 24And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
25Now when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly gathering, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again."25When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26It shrieked, threw him into terrible convulsions, and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, "He is dead!"26And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

33Then they came to Capernaum. After Jesus was inside the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the way?"33And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
34But they were silent, for on the way they had argued with one another about who was the greatest.34But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.
35After he sat down, he called the twelve and said to them, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be last of all and servant of all."35And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
36He took a little child and had him stand among them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,36And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
37"Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me." 37Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
38John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him because he was not following us."38And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
39But Jesus said, "Do not stop him, because no one who does a miracle in my name will be able soon afterward to say anything bad about me.39But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
40For whoever is not against us is for us.40For he that is not against us is on our part.
41For I tell you the truth, whoever gives you a cup of water because you bear Christ's name will never lose his reward. 41For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.
42"If anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a huge millstone tied around his neck and to be thrown into the sea.42And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
43If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off! It is better for you to enter into life crippled than to have two hands and go into hell, to the unquenchable fire.43And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
4444Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off! It is better to enter life lame than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.45And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
4646Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47If your eye causes you to sin, tear it out! It is better to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,47And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:
48where their worm never dies and the fire is never quenched.48Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
49Everyone will be salted with fire.49For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
50Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with each other." 50Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
