Mark 3
1 Another time He went into the synagogue, and there was a man there with a withered hand.
Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πάλιν εἰς συναγωγήν, καὶ ἦν ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος, ἐξηραμμένην ἔχων τὴν χεῖρα.
2 So they watched Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him.
Καὶ παρετήρουν αὐτὸν, εἰ τοῖς Σάββασιν θεραπεύσει αὐτόν, ἵνα κατηγορήσωσιν αὐτοῦ.
3 Well, He says to the man with the withered hand, “Come out in the middle!”
Καὶ λέγει τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τῷ τὴν χεῖρα ἔχοντι ξηράν, “Ἔγειρε εἰς τὸ μέσον.”
4 Then He said to them: “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent.
Καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, “Ἔξεστιν τοῖς Σάββασιν ἀγαθοποιῆσαι ἢ κακοποιῆσαι, ψυχὴν σῶσαι ἢ ἀποκτεῖναι;” Οἱ δὲ ἐσιώπων.
5 After looking around at them with anger, being grieved at the hardness of their hearts, He says to the man, “Stretch out your hand!” So he stretched, and his hand was restored as healthy as the other!
Καὶ περιβλεψάμενος αὐτοὺς μετʼ ὀργῆς, συλλυπούμενος ἐπὶ τῇ πωρώσει τῆς καρδίας αὐτῶν, λέγει τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ, “Ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρα σου.” Καὶ ἐξέτεινεν, καὶ ἀπεκατεστάθη ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ.
6 Then the Pharisees went straight out, and with the Herodians started hatching a plot against Him, how they might destroy Him.
Καὶ ἐξελθόντες, οἱ Φαρισαῖοι εὐθὺς μετὰ τῶν Ἡρῳδιανῶν συμβούλιον ἐποίησαν κατʼ αὐτοῦ, ὅπως αὐτὸν ἀπολέσωσιν.
7 Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea; and a large crowd from Galilee followed Him—also from Judea,
Καὶ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς μετὰ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ, ἀνεχώρησεν πρὸς τὴν θάλασσαν· καὶ πολὺ πλῆθος ἀπὸ τῆς Γαλιλαίας ἠκολούθησεν, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰουδαίας,
8 from Jerusalem, from Idumea and beyond Jordan; even those around Tyre and Sidon. A huge crowd came to Him, having heard the sorts of things He kept doing.
καὶ ἀπὸ Ἱεροσολύμων, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰδουμαίας, καὶ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, καὶ περὶ Τύρον καὶ Σιδῶνα, πλῆθος πολύ ἀκούοντες ὅσα ἐποίει, ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτόν.
9 So He told His disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him because of the crowd, lest they should press in on Him.
Καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἵνα πλοιάριον προσκαρτερῇ αὐτῷ διὰ τὸν ὄχλον, ἵνα μὴ θλίβωσιν αὐτόν.
10 Because He had healed many, so that as many as had afflictions were pushing toward Him so as to touch Him.
Πολλοὺς γὰρ ἐθεράπευσεν, ὥστε ἐπιπίπτειν αὐτῷ, ἵνα αὐτοῦ ἅψωνται ὅσοι εἶχον μάστιγας.
11 And the unclean spirits—whenever one saw Him, he would fall down before Him and cry out, saying, “You are the son of God!”
Καὶ τὰ πνεύματα τὰ ἀκάθαρτα, ὅταν αὐτὸν ἐθεώρουν, προσέπιπτον αὐτῷ καὶ ἔκραζον λέγοντα, ὅτι “Σὺ εἶ ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.”
12 And He kept giving them strict orders that they should not make Him known.
Καὶ πολλὰ ἐπετίμα αὐτοῖς ἵνα μὴ αὐτὸν φανερὸν ποιήσωσιν.
13 He went up on the mountain and summoned those whom He wanted, and they came to Him.
Καὶ ἀναβαίνει εἰς τὸ ὄρος, καὶ προσκαλεῖται οὓς ἤθελεν αὐτός, καὶ ἀπῆλθον πρὸς αὐτόν.
14 He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach
Καὶ ἐποίησεν δώδεκα, οὓς καὶ ἀποστόλους ὠνόμασεν, ἵνα ὦσιν μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἵνα ἀποστέλλῃ αὐτοὺς κηρύσσειν
15 —also to have authority to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons:
καὶ ἔχειν ἐξουσίαν ἐκβάλλειν τὰ δαιμόνια.
16 namely Peter (a name He gave to Simon);
Καὶ ἐποίησεν τοὺς δώδεκα: καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ὄνομα τῷ Σίμωνι, Πέτρον,
17 James son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James (and a name He gave to them was Boanerges, that is, ‘Sons of thunder’);
καὶ Ἰάκωβον τὸν τοῦ Ζεβεδαίου, καὶ Ἰωάννην τὸν ἀδελφὸν τοῦ Ἰακώβου, καὶ ἐπέθηκεν αὐτοῖς ὀνόματα Βοανηργές, ὅ ἐστιν “Υἱοὶ βροντῆς”,
18 Andrew, Phillip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite;
καὶ Ἀνδρέαν, καὶ Φίλιππον, καὶ Βαρθολομαῖον, καὶ Ματθαῖον, καὶ Θωμᾶν, καὶ Ἰάκωβον τὸν τοῦ Ἁλφαίου, καὶ Θαδδαῖον, καὶ Σίμωνα τὸν Καναναῖον,
19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
καὶ Ἰούδαν Ἰσκαριώθ, ὃς καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτόν.
20 Then they went into a house; and again a multitude gathered, so that they were not even able to eat bread.
Καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς οἶκον, καὶ συνέρχεται πάλιν ὁ ὄχλος, ὥστε μὴ δύνασθαι αὐτοὺς μηδὲ ἄρτον φαγεῖν.
21 Well upon hearing this His family came to apprehend Him, because they were saying, “He is out of his mind!”
Καὶ ἀκούσαντες, οἱ παρʼ αὐτοῦ ἐξῆλθον κρατῆσαι αὐτόν, ἔλεγον γὰρ, ὅτι “Ἐξέστη.”
22 Then some scribes who had come down from Jerusalem started saying, “He has Beelzebul,” and “It is by the ruler of the demons that he casts out demons.”
Καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς, οἱ ἀπὸ Ἱεροσολύμων καταβάντες ἔλεγον, ὅτι “Βεελζεβοὺλ ἔχει”, καὶ, ὅτι “Ἐν τῷ ἄρχοντι τῶν δαιμονίων, ἐκβάλλει τὰ δαιμόνια.”
23 So summoning them He started saying to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan?
Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος αὐτοὺς, ἐν παραβολαῖς ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς, “Πῶς δύναται Σατανᾶς Σατανᾶν ἐκβάλλειν;
24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
Καὶ ἐὰν βασιλεία ἐφʼ ἑαυτὴν μερισθῇ, οὐ δύναται σταθῆναι ἡ βασιλεία ἐκείνη.
25 And if a household is divided against itself, that household cannot stand.
Καὶ ἐὰν οἰκία ἐφʼ ἑαυτὴν μερισθῇ, οὐ δυνήσεται ἡ οἰκία ἐκείνη σταθῆναι.
26 And if Satan has risen up against himself and become divided, he cannot stand, but is finished.
Καὶ εἰ ὁ Σατανᾶς ἀνέστη ἐφʼ ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἐμερίσθη, οὐ δύναται στῆναι, ἀλλὰ τέλος ἔχει.
27 No one can plunder the strong man's goods, invading his house, unless he first binds the strong man—then he may plunder the house.
Ἀλλʼ οὐ δύναται οὐδεὶς εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν τοῦ ἰσχυροῦ εἰσελθὼν τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ διαρπάσαι, ἐὰν μὴ πρῶτον τὸν ἰσχυρὸν δήσῃ, καὶ τότε τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ διαρπάσει.
28 “Assuredly I say to you: all the sins of the sons of men can be forgiven, including whatever blasphemies they may utter;
Ἀμὴν, λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι πάντα ἀφεθήσεται τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων τὰ ἁμαρτήματα καὶ αἱ βλασφημίαι, ὅσα ἐὰν βλασφημήσωσιν.
30 —because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”
ὅτι ἔλεγον, “Πνεῦμα ἀκάθαρτον ἔχει.”
31 Then His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him.
Καὶ ἔρχονται ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔξω στήκοντες, ἀπέστειλαν πρὸς αὐτὸν καλοῦντες αὐτόν.
32 A crowd was sitting around Him; so they said to Him, “Look, your mother and your brothers and your sisters are outside asking for you.”
Καὶ ἐκάθητο περὶ αὐτὸν ὄχλος, καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, “Ἰδοὺ, ἡ μήτηρ σου καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί σου, ἔξω ζητοῦσίν σε.”
33 He answered them saying, “Who is my mother or my brothers?”
Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς αὐτοῖς λέγει, “Τίς ἐστιν ἡ μήτηρ μου, καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί μου;”
34 And looking around at those seated in a circle around Him He said: “Behold my mother and my brothers!
Καὶ περιβλεψάμενος τοὺς περὶ αὐτὸν, κύκλῳ καθημένους λέγει, “Ἴδε, ἡ μήτηρ μου καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί μου!
35 Because whoever does the will of God, the same is my brother, my sister, my mother.”
Ὃς γὰρ ἂν ποιήσῃ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, οὗτος ἀδελφός μου καὶ ἀδελφὴ καὶ μήτηρ ἐστίν.”
