< Mark 1 >

1 Beginning of the glad-message of Jesus Christ.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 According as it is written in Isaiah the prophet—Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way, —
Even as it is written in Isaiah the prophet, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way;
3 A voice of one crying aloud—In the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight, be making his paths.

4 John the Immerser came, in the wilderness, proclaiming an immersion of repentance for remission of sins;

And he preached, saying, There cometh after me he that is mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
8 I, have immersed you, with water, —He, will immerse you, with the Holy Spirit.
I baptized you in water; but he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit.
9 And it came to pass, in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed into the Jordan by John;
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in the Jordan.
10 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;
And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rent asunder, and the Spirit as a dove descending upon him:
11 and a voice [came] out of the heavens—Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, —In thee, I delight.
and a voice came out of the heavens, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased.
12 And, straightway, the Spirit urgeth him forth into the wilderness;
And straightway the Spirit driveth him forth into the wilderness.
13 and he was in the wilderness, forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts, —and, the messengers, were ministering unto him.

18 and, straightway, leaving the nets, they followed him.
And straightway they left the nets, and followed him.
19 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;
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 straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 And they journey into Capernaum. And, straightway, on the Sabbath, entering into the synagogue, he began teaching;

24 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.
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.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, [saying]—Be silenced, and come forth out of him!
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26 And the impure spirit, tearing him, and calling out with a loud voice, came forth out of him;
And the unclean spirit, tearing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 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!
And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he commandeth even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.
28 And forth went the report of him, straightway, on every hand, into the surrounding country of Galilee.

32 And, evening arriving, when the sun went in, they were bearing unto him all who were sick, and them who were demonized;
And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were sick, and them that were possessed with demons.
33 and all the city was gathered unto the door;

34 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].

36 and Simon, and they who were with him, went in quest of him,
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him;
37 and found him, and say unto him—All, are seeking thee;
and they found him, and say unto him, All are seeking thee.
38 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;

41 and, moved with compassion, he stretched forth the hand, and touched him, and saith unto him—I am willing, Be cleansed!
And being moved with compassion, he stretched forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou made clean.
42 and, straightway, the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed;

43 and, strictly charging him, straightway, he urged him forth;

44 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.
and saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45 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.
But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to spread abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
