Mark 1
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
Beginning of the glad-message of Jesus Christ.
2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, which shall prepare your way before you.
According as it is written in Isaiah the prophet—Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way, —
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
A voice of one crying aloud—In the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight, be making his paths.
4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
John the Immerser came, in the wilderness, proclaiming an immersion of repentance for remission of sins;
5 And there went out to him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
and there were going out unto him all the Judaea country and all they of Jerusalem, and were being immersed by him in the Jordan river, openly confessing their sins;
6 And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
and John was clothed with camel’s-hair and a leathern girdle about his loins, and was eating locusts and wild honey;
7 And preached, saying, There comes one mightier than I after me, the lace of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
and he proclaimed, saying—He that is mightier than I cometh after [me], of whom I am not worthy to stoop and unloose the strap of his sandals:
8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
I, have immersed you, with water, —He, will immerse you, with the Holy Spirit.
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
And it came to pass, in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed into the Jordan by John;
10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending on him:
And, straightway, as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rending asunder, and, the Spirit, as a dove, descending unto him;
11 And there came a voice from heaven, saying, You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
and a voice [came] out of the heavens—Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, —In thee, I delight.
12 And immediately the spirit drives him into the wilderness.
And, straightway, the Spirit urgeth him forth into the wilderness;
13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.
and he was in the wilderness, forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts, —and, the messengers, were ministering unto him.
14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the glad-message of God,
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel.
[and saying]—The season is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God hath drawn near, —Repent ye, and have faith in the glad-message.
16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
And, passing by near the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea, —for they were fishers;
17 And Jesus said to them, Come you after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
and Jesus said unto them—Come after me, and I will make you become fishers of men;
18 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.
and, straightway, leaving the nets, they followed him.
19 And when he had gone a little farther there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.
And, going forward a little, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, and them who were in the boat putting in order the nets;
20 And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
and, straightway, he called them, —and, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat, with the hired men, they came away after him.
21 And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
And they journey into Capernaum. And, straightway, on the Sabbath, entering into the synagogue, he began teaching;
22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
and they were being struck with astonishment at his teaching, —for he was teaching them as one having authority, and, not as the Scribes.
23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
And, straightway, there was in their synagogue, a man in an impure spirit, —and he cried out aloud,
24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with you, you Jesus of Nazareth? are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy One of God.
saying—What have we in common with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee, who thou art, The Holy One of God.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold your peace, and come out of him.
And Jesus rebuked him, [saying]—Be silenced, and come forth out of him!
26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
And the impure spirit, tearing him, and calling out with a loud voice, came forth out of him;
27 And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commands he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
and they were amazed, one and all, so that they began to discuss among themselves, saying—What is this? New teaching! With authority, to the impure spirits also, he giveth orders, and they obey him!
28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
And forth went the report of him, straightway, on every hand, into the surrounding country of Galilee.
29 And immediately, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
And, straightway, out of the synagogue, going forth, he went unto the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 But Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever, and immediately they tell him of her.
Now, the mother-in-law of Simon, was lying in a fever, and, straightway, they speak to him concerning her;
31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
and, coming near, he raised her up, grasping her hand, —and the fever left her, and she began ministering unto them.
32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought to him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
And, evening arriving, when the sun went in, they were bearing unto him all who were sick, and them who were demonized;
33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
and all the city was gathered unto the door;
34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
and he cured many that were sick with divers diseases, and, many demons, he cast out, and suffered not the demons to be talking, —because they knew him [to be Christ].
35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
And, very early by night arising, he went out [and departed] into a desert place, and, there, was praying;
36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
and Simon, and they who were with him, went in quest of him,
37 And when they had found him, they said to him, All men seek for you.
and found him, and say unto him—All, are seeking thee;
38 And he said to them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
and he saith unto them—Let us be going elsewhere, into the neighbouring country-towns, in order that, there also, I may be making proclamation, —for, to this end, came I forth;
39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
and he came, making proclamation, into their synagogues, throughout the whole of Galilee, —and, was casting the demons out.
40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him, If you will, you can make me clean.
And there cometh unto him, a leper, beseeching him and [kneeling], —saying unto him—If thou be willing, thou canst cleanse me;
41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and says to him, I will; be you clean.
and, moved with compassion, he stretched forth the hand, and touched him, and saith unto him—I am willing, Be cleansed!
42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
and, straightway, the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed;
43 And he straightly charged him, and immediately sent him away;
and, strictly charging him, straightway, he urged him forth;
44 And says to him, See you say nothing to any man: but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
and saith unto him—Mind! unto no one, say aught, —but withdraw, thyself, show unto the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what things Moses enjoined, for a witness unto them.
45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
But, he, going forth, began to be proclaiming many things, and blazing abroad the story, so that, no longer, was it possible for him, openly, into a city, to enter, —but, outside, in desert places, [was he], and they were coming unto him from every quarter.
