Mark 1
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua the Messiah, the Son of God.
2 Even as it is written in Isaiah the prophet, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way;
As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight;
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
4 John came, who baptized in the wilderness and preached the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins.

5 And there went out unto him all the country of Judæa, and all they of Jerusalem; and they were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

8 I baptized you in water; but he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit.
I immersed you in water, but he will immerse you in the Ruach ha-Kodesh."
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in the Jordan.
And it happened in those days, that Yeshua came from Natzeret of Galil, and was immersed by John in the Jordan.
10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rent asunder, and the Spirit as a dove descending upon him:
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Ruach descending on him like a dove.
11 and a voice came out of the heavens, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased.
And a voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased."
12 And straightway the Spirit driveth him forth into the wilderness.
And immediately the Ruach drove him out into the wilderness.
13 And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted of Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

15 and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe in the gospel.

16 And passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net in the sea; for they were fishers.
And passing along by the Lake of Galil, he saw Shim'on and Andrew the brother of Shim'on casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
And Yeshua said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
18 And straightway they left the nets, and followed him.
And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
19 And going on a little further, he saw James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending the nets.
And going on a little further, he saw Jacob the son of Zavdai, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.

24 saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus thou Nazarene? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
saying, "What do we have to do with you, Yeshua of Natzeret? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
And Yeshua rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
26 And the unclean spirit, tearing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

37 and they found him, and say unto him, All are seeking thee.
