< Mark 10 >

1 And, from thence, arising, he cometh into the bounds of Judaea and beyond the Jordan, —and there come together again, multitudes unto him, and, as he had been wont, again, was he teaching them.
And he arose and went thence into the borders of Judea, by the other side of the Jordan. And the multitudes again came together to him; and, as his custom was, he taught them again.
2 And Pharisees coming near were questioning him—whether it is allowed a husband to divorce a wife, testing him.
And the Pharisees came to him, and that they might tempt him, asked him the question: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife?
3 But, he, answering, said unto them—What unto you did, Moses, command?
He answered and said to them: What commandment did Moses give you?
4 And, they, said—Moses permitted, to write, a roll of dismissal, and to divorce.
They replied: Moses permitted us to write a bill of divorce, and put her away.
5 But, Jesus, said unto them—In view of your hardness of heart, wrote he for you this commandment;
And Jesus answered and said to them: On account of the hardness of your hearts, he wrote this commandment for you.
6 But, from the beginning of creation, male and female, made he [them];
But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.
7 For this cause, shall a man leave behind his father and mother,
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife;
8 and, the two, shall become, one flesh; so that, no longer, are they two, but, one flesh.
and the two shall be one flesh. So, then, they are no longer two, but one flesh.
9 What then, God, hath yoked together, let, a man, not put asunder.
Therefore, what God has joined together, let not man put asunder.
10 And, [coming] into the house again, the disciples, concerning this, were questioning him;
And in the house, his disciples again asked him about the same matter.
11 and he saith unto them—Whosoever shall divorce his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her;
And he said to them: Whoever puts away his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her;
12 And, if, she, divorcing her husband, marry another, she committeth adultery.
and if a woman puts away her husband, and is married to another, she commits adultery.
13 And they were bringing unto him children, that he might, touch, them, —the disciples, however, were rebuking them.
And they brought little children to him, that he might touch them: but his disciples rebuked those who brought them.
14 But Jesus, seeing it, was greatly displeased, and said unto them—Suffer the children to come unto me, —do not hinder them; for, of such, is the kingdom of God.
And when Jesus saw it, he was displeased, and said to them: Let the little children come to me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.
15 Verily, I say unto you—Whosoever shall not welcome the kingdom of God, as a child, in nowise shall enter thereinto.
Verily I say to you, Whoever will not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall not enter into it.
16 And, folding them in his arms, he was blessing them, having laid his hands upon them.
And he took them in his arms, laid his hands on them, and blessed them.
17 And, as he was going forth into a road, one, running, and kneeling before him, was questioning him—Good Teacher! what shall I do that, life age—abiding, I may inherit? (aiōnios g166)
And as he was going forth into the road, one ran and bowed the knee to him, and asked him: Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
18 And, Jesus, said unto him—Why callest thou me, good? None, is good, save one—God.
Jesus said to him: Why do you call me good? None is good but one, that is God.
19 The commandments, thou knowest, —Do not commit murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal; Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.
You know the commandments, You shall not commit adultery; You shall not kill; You shall not steal; You shall not give false testimony; You shall not defraud; Honor your father and mother.
20 And, he, said unto him—Teacher! all these things, have I kept, from my youth.
He answered and said to him: Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth.
21 And, Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said unto him—One thing, unto thee, is wanting; —Withdraw! whatsoever thou hast, sell, and give unto [the] destitute, —and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come! be following me.
And Jesus, looking on him, loved him, and said to him: One thing you lack; go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
22 And, he, becoming gloomy because of the word, departed sorrowing, for he was holding, many possessions.
But becoming sad at that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
23 And, looking around, Jesus saith unto his disciples—With what difficulty, shall, they who have money, enter, into the kingdom of God!
And Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples: With what difficulty will those who have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
24 And, the disciples, were in amazement, because of the words. But, Jesus, again answering, saith unto them—Children! how difficult, it is, to enter, into the kingdom of God!
And his disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus, answering again, said to them: Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!
25 It is, easier, for a camel, through the eye of a needle, to pass, than for, a rich man, into the kingdom of God, to enter.
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And, they, were being exceedingly struck with astonishment, saying unto him—Who, then, can, be saved?
And they were astonished beyond measure, and said among themselves: Who, then, can be saved?
27 Looking at them, Jesus saith—With men, impossible, but not, with God; for, all things, are possible, with God
Jesus looked on them and said: With men this is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.
28 Peter began to be saying unto him—Lo! we, have left all, and followed thee!
And Peter began to say to him: Behold, we have left all and followed thee.
29 Jesus said—Verily, I say unto you—There is, no one, who hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for the sake of me, and [for the sake of] the glad-message,
And Jesus answering, said: Verily I say to you, There is no one that has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel,
30 who shall not receive a hundredfold, now, in this season, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, —with persecutions, and, in the age that is coming, life age-abiding. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who shall not receive a hundred-fold, now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions; and in the age to come, eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 But, many, shall be—first-last, and [the] Last-first.
But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
32 Now they were in the way, going up unto Jerusalem, and Jesus was going on before them, —and they were in amazement; and, they who followed, were in fear. And, taking unto himself, again, the twelve, he began to be saying unto them, as to the things about to befall him—
And they were in the road going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them; and they were amazed, and as they followed, they were afraid. And again taking the twelve aside, he began to tell them what was about to befall him.
33 Lo! we are going up unto Jerusalem; and, the Son of Man, will be delivered up, unto the Chief-priests and the Scribes, —and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him up unto the nations;
Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him to the Gentiles;
34 And they will mock him, and spit upon him, and scourge him, and, slay; —and, after three days, will he, arise.
and they will deride him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and kill him, and on the third day he will rise again.
35 And there come near unto him, James and John, the [two] sons of Zebedee, —saying unto him—Teacher! we desire, that, whatsoever we shall ask thee, thou wilt do for us.
And James and John the sons of Zebedee came to him, and said: Teacher, we desire you to do for us whatever we shall ask.
36 But, he, said unto them—What desire ye, I should do for you?
He said to them: What do you wish me to do for you?
37 And, they, said unto him—Grant us, that, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left, we may sit, in thy glory.
They said to him: Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left, in thy glory.
38 But, Jesus, said unto them—Ye know not what ye are asking: Are ye able to drink the cup that, I, am to drink? or to be immersed, with the immersion wherewith, I, am to be immersed?
Jesus said to them: You know not what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be immersed with the immersion with which I am immersed?
39 And, they, said unto him—We are able. And, Jesus, said unto them—The cup which, I, am to drink, ye shall drink, and, with the immersion wherewith, I, am to be immersed, shall ye be immersed;
They said to him: We are able. Jesus said to them: You shall drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be immersed with the immersion with which I am immersed.
40 But, to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, except unto them for whom it hath been prepared.
But to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give; but it shall be given to those for whom it is prepared.
41 And the ten, hearing, began to be sorely displeased, concerning James and John.
And when the ten heard it, they began to be displeased with James and John.
42 And Jesus, calling them near, saith unto them—Ye know that, they who think to rule the nations, lord it over them, and, their great ones, wield authority over them;
But Jesus called them to him, and said to them: You know that those who think they rule the Gentiles, act as lords over them; and their great men exercise authority over them.
43 But, not so, it is, among you. But, whosoever desireth to become, great, among you, shall be, your minister,
But it shall not be so among you. But whoever desires to be great among you, shall be your minister;
44 And, whosoever desireth, among you, to be, first, shall be, servant of all;
and whoever among you desires to be first, shall be servant of all.
45 For, even the Son of Man, came not to be ministered unto, but minister, —and to give his life, a ransom instead of many.
For the Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
46 And they come into Jericho. And, as he was journeying forth from Jericho, and his disciples, and a considerable multitude, the son of Timaeus, blind Bar-Timaeus, a beggar, was sitting beside the road.
And they came to Jericho: and as he was going out of Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimæus, the son of Timæus, was sitting on the roadside, begging.
47 And, hearing that it was, Jesus the Nazarene, he began to be crying aloud, and saying—O Son of David! Jesus! have mercy on me.
And when he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say: Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me!
48 And many were rebuking him, that he might hold his peace; but, he, so much the more, was crying aloud, O Son of David, have mercy on me.
And many rebuked him, that he should be silent. But he cried out yet the more: Son of David, have mercy on me!
49 And, coming to a stand, Jesus said—Call him! And they call the blind man, saying unto him—Take courage! rise! he calleth thee!
And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they called the blind man, and said to him: Take courage; arise, he calls you.
50 And, he, throwing off his mantle—springing to his feet, came unto Jesus.
And throwing away his mantle, he arose, and came to Jesus.
51 And, answering him, Jesus said—What desirest thou, I should do for thee? And, the blind man, said unto him—Rabboni! that may recover sight.
And Jesus answered and said to him: What do you wish me to do for you? The blind man said to him: Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.
52 And, Jesus, said unto him—Go thy way! thy faith, hath saved thee. And, straightway, he recovered sight, and was following him in the road.
And Jesus said to him: Go, your faith has saved you. And he immediately received his sight, and followed Jesus on the road.
