Matthew 17:7-17 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

7. But יהושע came near and touched them and said, “Rise, and do not be afraid.”

8. And having lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but יהושע only.

9. And as they were coming down from the mountain, יהושע commanded them, saying, “Do not mention the vision to anyone until the Son of Aḏam is raised from the dead.”

10. And His taught ones asked Him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Ěliyahu has to come first?”

11. And יהושע answering, said to them, “Ěliyahu is indeed coming first, and shall restore all matters.

12. “But I say to you that Ěliyahu has already come, and they did not recognise him but did to him whatever they wished. In this way the Son of Aḏam is also about to suffer by them.”

13. Then the taught ones understood that He had spoken to them about Yoḥanan the Immerser.

14. And when they came to the crowd, a man came up to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying,

15. “Master, have compassion on my son, for he is an epileptic and suffers badly, for he often falls into the fire and often into the water.

16. “And I brought him to Your taught ones, but they were unable to heal him.”

17. And יהושע answering, said, “O generation, unbelieving and perverted, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.”
