< 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 from there, and came to the border of Judaea, on the other side the Jordan. And great multitudes came to him there; and again he instructed them, as he was accustomed.
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, tempting him, inquired if it were lawful for a man to divorce his wife.
3 But, he, answering, said unto them—What unto you did, Moses, command?
He said to them: What did Moses command you?
4 And, they, said—Moses permitted, to write, a roll of dismissal, and to divorce.
They said: Moses permitted us to write a bill of divorce, and send her away.
5 But, Jesus, said unto them—In view of your hardness of heart, wrote he for you this commandment;
Jesus answered and said to them: On account of the hardness of your heart, Moses wrote you this precept.
6 But, from the beginning of creation, male and female, made he [them];
But, from the beginning, God made them a male and a female.
7 For this cause, shall a man leave behind his father and mother,
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and adhere to his wife:
8 and, the two, shall become, one flesh; so that, no longer, are they two, but, one flesh.
and they two shall be one flesh. Wherefore they are not two, but one flesh.
9 What then, God, hath yoked together, let, a man, not put asunder.
What therefore God hath conjoined, let not man separate.
10 And, [coming] into the house again, the disciples, concerning this, were questioning him;
And in the house, the disciples asked him again of this 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 shall divorce his wife, and take another, committeth adultery.
12 And, if, she, divorcing her husband, marry another, she committeth adultery.
And if a woman shall leave her husband, and marry another, she committeth 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 he said to them, Suffer little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for of those like them 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, That whoever doth not receive the kingdom of God, like a little child, shall not enter 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, and laid his hand 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 walked in the way, one ran and fell upon his knees, and asked him, and said: Good Teacher, what must I do, to inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
18 And, Jesus, said unto him—Why callest thou me, good? None, is good, save one—God.
Jesus saith to him: Why callest thou me good? There is none good, but one, 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.
Thou knowest the commandments; thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not give false testimony, thou shalt not defraud; honor thy father and thy mother.
20 And, he, said unto him—Teacher! all these things, have I kept, from my youth.
And he answered, and said to him: Teacher, all these have I kept from my childhood.
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 looked on him, and loved him, and said to him: One thing thou lackest. Go, sell all that thou possessest, and give to the poor, and there will be a treasure for thee in heaven; and take thy cross, and come after me.
22 And, he, becoming gloomy because of the word, departed sorrowing, for he was holding, many possessions.
And he was made sad by that speech, and went away sorrowing: for he possessed great riches.
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 upon his disciples, and said to them: How hard for those who possess wealth, to 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 the disciples wondered at the remark. And Jesus, replied again, and said to them: My children, how hard it is, for those who trust in riches, to enter into 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 enter the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
26 And, they, were being exceedingly struck with astonishment, saying unto him—Who, then, can, be saved?
And they wondered the more, and said among themselves: Who can obtain life!
27 Looking at them, Jesus saith—With men, impossible, but not, with God; for, all things, are possible, with God
And Jesus looked on them again, and said to them: With men, this is not possible, but with God it is; for with God all things are possible.
28 Peter began to be saying unto him—Lo! we, have left all, and followed thee!
And Cephas began to say: Lo, we have left every thing, and have cleaved to 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,
Jesus answered and said: Verily I say to you, There is no man that leaveth houses, or brothers or sisters, or father or mother, or wife or children, for my sake, and for the sake of my tidings,
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 will not receive a hundredfold, here in the present time, houses, and brothers and sisters, and mothers and children, and lands, with persecution; and in the world to come eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 But, many, shall be—first-last, and [the] Last-first.
But many are first, who will be last; and last, who will be 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 as they were in the way, going up to Jerusalem, Jesus went before them: and they were amazed, and walked after him with trembling. And he took his twelve, and began to tell them what was 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 to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be delivered up to the chief priests and the Scribes; and they will condemn him to die, and will deliver him over 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 mock him, and will scourge him, and will spit in his face, and will kill him; and on the third day he will arise.
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 to him: Teacher, we desire that thou wouldst do for us all that we ask.
36 But, he, said unto them—What desire ye, I should do for you?
He saith to them: What would ye, that I should 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 say to him: Grant to us, that one may sit on thy right hand, and the other 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?
But he said to them: Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup, of which I drink? and to be baptized with the baptism, that I am baptized with?
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 say to him: We are able. Jesus saith to them: The cup that I drink, ye will drink, and the baptism that I am baptized with, ye will be baptized with:
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 that ye should sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine o give, except 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 murmur against 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;
And Jesus called them, and said to them: Ye know, that they who are accounted chiefs of the nations, are their lords; and their great men have 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 he that would be great among you, must be a servitor to you.
44 And, whosoever desireth, among you, to be, first, shall be, servant of all;
And he of you that would be first, must be servant to every one.
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.
And also the Son of man came, not to be served, but to serve; 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 Jesus went out of Jericho, he and his disciples and a great multitude; Timeus, the son of Timeus, a blind man, was sitting by the side of the way, and 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 he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarean; and he began to cry out, and to say: Thou 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 might be silent. But he cried out the more, and said: Thou 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, and directed him to be called. And they called the blind man, and said to him: Take courage: arise, he calleth thee.
50 And, he, throwing off his mantle—springing to his feet, came unto Jesus.
And the blind man cast off his garment and arose, and went 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.
Jesus said to him: What wilt thou, that I do for thee? And the blind man said to him: Rabbi, that I may have 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; thy faith hath procured thee life. And immediately his sight was restored; and he followed after him.
