Mark 9 (NET)

Mark 9:1¹And he said to them, “I tell you the truth, there are some standing here who will not experience death before they see the kingdom of God come with power.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:2²Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John and led them alone up a high mountain privately. And he was transfigured before them,Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:3³and his clothes became radiantly white, more so than any launderer in the world could bleach them.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:4⁴Then Elijah appeared before them along with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:5⁵So Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters —one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:6⁶(For they were afraid, and he did not know what to say.)Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:7⁷Then a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came from the cloud, “This is my one dear Son. Listen to him!”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:8⁸Suddenly when they looked around, they saw no one with them any more except Jesus.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:9⁹As they were coming down from the mountain, he gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:10¹⁰They kept this statement to themselves, discussing what this rising from the dead meant.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:11¹¹Then they asked him, “Why do the experts in the law say that Elijah must come first?”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:12¹²He 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?Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:13¹³But I tell you that Elijah has certainly come, and they did to him whatever they wanted, just as it is written about him.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:14¹⁴When they came to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and experts in the law arguing with them.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:15¹⁵When the whole crowd saw him, they were amazed and ran at once and greeted him.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:16¹⁶He asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:17¹⁷A member of the crowd said to him, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that makes him mute.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:18¹⁸Whenever 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.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:19¹⁹He answered them, “You unbelieving generation! How much longer must I be with you? How much longer must I endure you? Bring him to me.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:20²⁰So they brought the boy to him. When the spirit saw him, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell on the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:21²¹Jesus asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:22²²It has often thrown him into fire or water to destroy him. But if you are able to do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:23²³Then Jesus said to him, “‘If you are able?’ All things are possible for the one who believes.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:24²⁴Immediately the father of the boy cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:25²⁵Now 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.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:26²⁶It shrieked, threw him into terrible convulsions, and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He is dead!”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:27²⁷But Jesus gently took his hand and raised him to his feet, and he stood up.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:28²⁸Then, after he went into the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:29²⁹He told them, “This kind can come out only by prayer.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:30³⁰They went out from there and passed through Galilee. But Jesus did not want anyone to know,Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:31³¹for he was teaching his disciples and telling them, “The Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:32³²But they did not understand this statement and were afraid to ask him.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:33³³Then they came to Capernaum. After Jesus was inside the house he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:34³⁴But they were silent, for on the way they had argued with one another about who was the greatest.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:35³⁵After 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.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:36³⁶He took a little child and had him stand among them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:37³⁷“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.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:38³⁸John 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.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:39³⁹But 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.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:40⁴⁰For whoever is not against us is for us.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:41⁴¹For I tell you the truth, whoever gives you a cup of water because you bear Christ’s name will never lose his reward.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:42⁴²“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.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:43⁴³If 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.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:45⁴⁵If 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.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:47⁴⁷If 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,Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:48⁴⁸where their worm never dies and the fire is never quenched.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:49⁴⁹Everyone will be salted with fire.Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s

Mark 9:50⁵⁰Salt 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.”Copy LinkCopy VerseKJV+Strong’s
