Mark 1
1 Beginning of the glad-message of Jesus Christ.
A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, 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, —
As it hath been written in the prophets, 'Lo, I send My messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee,' —
3 A voice of one crying aloud—In the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight, be making his paths.
'A voice of one calling in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye his paths,' —
4 John the Immerser came, in the wilderness, proclaiming an immersion of repentance for remission of sins;
John came baptizing in the wilderness, and proclaiming a baptism of reformation — to remission of sins,
5 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;
and there were going forth to him all the region of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and they were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 and John was clothed with camel’s-hair and a leathern girdle about his loins, and was eating locusts and wild honey;
And John was clothed with camel's hair, and a girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
7 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:
and he proclaimed, saying, 'He doth come — who is mightier than I — after me, of whom I am not worthy — having stooped down — to loose the latchet of his sandals;
8 I, have immersed you, with water, —He, will immerse you, with the Holy Spirit.
I indeed did baptize you with water, but he shall baptize you with 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, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John at 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 immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit as a dove coming down 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 Son — the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
12 And, straightway, the Spirit urgeth him forth into the wilderness;
And immediately doth the Spirit put him forth to 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.
and he was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by the Adversary, and he was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to him.
14 And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the glad-message of God,
And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the reign of God,
15 [and saying]—The season is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God hath drawn near, —Repent ye, and have faith in the glad-message.
and saying — 'Fulfilled hath been the time, and the reign of God hath come nigh, reform ye, and believe in the good news.'
16 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;
And, walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers,
17 and Jesus said unto them—Come after me, and I will make you become fishers of men;
and Jesus said to them, 'Come ye after me, and I shall make you to become fishers of men;'
18 and, straightway, leaving the nets, they followed him.
and immediately, having left their nets, they 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 having gone on thence a little, he saw James of Zebedee, and John his brother, and they were in the boat refitting the nets,
20 and, straightway, he called them, —and, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat, with the hired men, they came away after him.
and immediately he called them, and, having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after him.
21 And they journey into Capernaum. And, straightway, on the Sabbath, entering into the synagogue, he began teaching;
And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, he was teaching,
22 and they were being struck with astonishment at his teaching, —for he was teaching them as one having authority, and, not as the Scribes.
and they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 And, straightway, there was in their synagogue, a man in an impure spirit, —and he cried out aloud,
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
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, 'Away! what — to us and to thee, Jesus the Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known 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, 'Be silenced, and come forth 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 having torn him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth 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, so as to reason among themselves, saying, 'What is this? what new teaching [is] this? that with authority also the unclean spirits he commandeth, and they obey him!'
28 And forth went the report of him, straightway, on every hand, into the surrounding country of Galilee.
And the fame of him went forth immediately to all the region, round about, of Galilee.
29 And, straightway, out of the synagogue, going forth, he went unto the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
And immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went to the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John,
30 Now, the mother-in-law of Simon, was lying in a fever, and, straightway, they speak to him concerning her;
and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell him about her,
31 and, coming near, he raised her up, grasping her hand, —and the fever left her, and she began ministering unto them.
and having come near, he raised her up, having laid hold of her hand, and the fever left her immediately, and she was ministering to them.
32 And, evening arriving, when the sun went in, they were bearing unto him all who were sick, and them who were demonized;
And evening having come, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all who were ill, and who were demoniacs,
33 and all the city was gathered unto the door;
and the whole city was gathered together near 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].
and he healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and many demons he cast forth, and was not suffering the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 And, very early by night arising, he went out [and departed] into a desert place, and, there, was praying;
And very early, it being yet night, having risen, he went forth, and went away to a desert place, and was there praying;
36 and Simon, and they who were with him, went in quest of him,
and Simon and those with him went in quest of him,
37 and found him, and say unto him—All, are seeking thee;
and having found him, they say to him, — 'All do seek 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;
and he saith to them, 'We may go to the next towns, that there also I may preach, for for this I came forth.'
39 and he came, making proclamation, into their synagogues, throughout the whole of Galilee, —and, was casting the demons out.
And he was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
40 And there cometh unto him, a leper, beseeching him and [kneeling], —saying unto him—If thou be willing, thou canst cleanse me;
and there doth come to him a leper, calling on him, and kneeling to him, and saying to him — 'If thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me.'
41 and, moved with compassion, he stretched forth the hand, and touched him, and saith unto him—I am willing, Be cleansed!
And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him, and saith to him, 'I will; be thou cleansed;'
42 and, straightway, the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed;
and he having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
43 and, strictly charging him, straightway, he urged him forth;
And having sternly charged him, immediately he put 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 to him, 'See thou mayest say nothing to any one, but go away, thyself shew to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony to 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.
And he, having gone forth, began to proclaim much, and to spread abroad the thing, so that no more he was able openly to enter into the city, but he was without in desert places, and they were coming unto him from every quarter.
