Mark 6
1 And he went forth from thence, and cometh into his own city, —and his disciples follow him.
He went out from there. He came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.
2 And, when it was Sabbath, he began to be teaching in the synagogue, and, the greater part, as they heard, were being struck with astonishment, saying—Whence hath this man these things?—and—What the wisdom which hath been given to this man?—and—Such mighty works as these, through his hands, are coming to pass!
When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things?” and, “What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?
3 Is not, this, the carpenter? the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?—and they were finding cause of stumbling in him.
Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judah, and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” So they were offended at him.
4 And Jesus was saying unto them—A prophet is not without honour, save in his own city and among his kinsfolk, and in his house;
Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honour, except in his own country, and amongst his own relatives, and in his own house.”
5 and he could not, there, do so much as a single mighty work, —save, on a few sick, he laid his hands and cured them.
He could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages in a circuit, teaching.
He marvelled because of their unbelief. He went around the villages teaching.
7 And he calleth near the twelve, and began to be sending them forth two and two, —and was giving them authority over the impure spirits:
He called to himself the twelve, and began to send them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits.
8 and charged them that they should take, nothing, for a journey, save a staff only, —no bread, no satchel, no copper, for the belt;
He commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a staff only: no bread, no wallet, no money in their purse,
9 but having bound on light sandals, and not to put on, two tunics;
but to wear sandals, and not put on two tunics.
10 and he was saying unto them—Wheresoever ye shall enter into a house, there, abide, until ye go forth from thence;
He said to them, “Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.
11 And, whatsoever place shall not welcome you nor hearken unto you, when ye are going forth from thence, shake off the dust that is under you feet, for a witness against them.
Whoever will not receive you nor hear you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them. Assuredly, I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgement than for that city!”
12 And they went forth and made proclamation, in order that men should repent;
They went out and preached that people should repent.
13 and, many demons, were they casting out, —and were anointing with oil, many sick, and were curing them.
They cast out many demons, and anointed many with oil who were sick and healed them.
14 And King Herod heard, —for, famous, had become his name; and he was saying—John the Immerser hath arisen from among the dead, and, for this cause, are the powers working mightily in him;
King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, “John the Baptiser has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.”
15 But, others, were saying—It is Elijah, and, others were saying—A prophet, like one of the prophets!
But others said, “He is Elijah.” Others said, “He is a prophet, or like one of the prophets.”
16 But, when Herod heard, he was saying—He whom I beheaded—John, the same, hath been raised.
But Herod, when he heard this, said, “This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead.”
17 For, Herod himself, had sent and secured John and bound him in prison, for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, —for, her, had he married,
For Herod himself had sent out and arrested John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, for he had married her.
18 For John had been saying to Herod—It is not allowed thee, to have, the wife of thy brother.
For John had said to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”
19 And, Herodias, was cherishing [a grudge] against him, and wishing, to slay him, —and could not;
Herodias set herself against him and desired to kill him, but she couldn’t,
20 for, Herod, stood in fear of John, knowing him to be a man righteous and holy, —and was keeping him safe; and, when he heard him, he paid earnest heed, and, with pleasure, used to listen to him.
for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he did many things, and he heard him gladly.
21 And, an opportune day arriving, when Herod on his birthday made a feast for his nobles, and for the rulers of thousands and for the first men of Galilee,
Then a convenient day came when Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.
22 when the daughter of this very Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those reclining together, and, the king, said unto the damsel—Ask me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee;
When the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young lady, “Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you.”
23 and he took an oath to her—Whatsoever thou shalt ask me, I will give thee, unto half my kingdom.
He swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”
24 And, going out, she said unto her mother—What shall I ask? and she said—The head of John the Immerser;
She went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?” She said, “The head of John the Baptiser.”
25 And, coming in straightway, with hast, unto the king, she asked, saying—I desire, that, forthwith, thou give me, upon a charger, the head of John the Immerser.
She came in immediately with haste to the king and requested, “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptiser on a platter.”
26 And, though the king was, very grieved, yet, by reason of the oaths, and of them who were reclining, he would not refuse her.
The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths and of his dinner guests, he didn’t wish to refuse her.
27 And the king, straightway, sending off a guard, gave orders to bring his head.
Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard and commanded to bring John’s head; and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 And, departing, he beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a charger, and gave it unto the damsel—and, the damsel, gave it unto her mother.
and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.
29 And, hearing of it, his disciples went and took away his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
When his disciples heard this, they came and took up his corpse and laid it in a tomb.
30 And the apostles gather themselves together unto Jesus, and reported unto him all things, as many as they had done, and as many as they had taught.
The apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
31 And he saith unto them—Come, ye yourselves, apart, into a desert place, and rest yourselves a little. For they who were coming and they who were going were many, and, not even to eat, were they finding fitting opportunity.
He said to them, “Come away into a deserted place, and rest awhile.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32 And they departed, in the boat, into a desert place, apart.
They went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
33 And many saw them going away, and took note of it, and, afoot, from all the cities, ran they together thither, —and outwent them.
They saw them going, and many recognised him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to him.
34 And, coming forth, he saw, a great multitude, and was moved with compassion towards them, because they were like sheep having no shepherd, and he began to be teaching them many things.
Jesus came out, saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
35 And, already, a late hour, having arrived, his disciples came unto him and were saying, A desert, is the place, and it is, already, a late hour:
When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him and said, “This place is deserted, and it is late in the day.
36 dismiss them, that, departing into the surrounding hamlets and villages, they may buy themselves something to eat.
Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.”
37 But, he, answering said to them—Ye, give them, to eat. And they say unto him—Shall we depart and buy two hundred denaries’ worth of loaves, and give them to eat?
But he answered them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”
38 And, he, saith unto them—How many loaves, have ye? Go, see! And, getting to know, they say—Five, and, two fishes.
He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go see.” When they knew, they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39 And he gave them orders, that all should be made recline, in parties, upon, the green grass.
He commanded them that everyone should sit down in groups on the green grass.
40 And they fell back, in companies, by hundreds and by fifties.
They sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
41 And, taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up into heaven, he blessed, and brake up the loaves, and began giving unto the disciples, that they might set before them, and, the two fishes, divided he, unto all.
He took the five loaves and the two fish; and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves, and he gave to his disciples to set before them, and he divided the two fish amongst them all.
42 And they did all eat, and were filled.
They all ate and were filled.
43 And they took up broken pieces, twelve baskets, full measure, and from the fishes.
They took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and also of the fish.
44 And they who did eat the loaves were, five thousand men.
Those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.
45 And, straightway, constrained he his disciples to enter into the boat, and be going forward to the other side, unto Bethsaida, —while, he, was dismissing the multitude.
Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself sent the multitude away.
46 And, bidding them farewell, he departed into the mountain to pray.
After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.
47 And, when, evening, came, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and, he alone, on the land.
When evening had come, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
48 And, seeing them distressed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night, he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, —and was wishing to pass by them.
Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have passed by them,
49 But, they, seeing him, upon the sea, walking, supposed that it was an apparition, and cried out aloud;
but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;
50 for, all, saw him, and were troubled. But, he, straightway, talked with them, and saith unto them—Take courage! it is, I—be not afraid!
for they all saw him and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them and said to them, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
51 And he went up unto them, into the boat, —and the wind lulled. And, exceedingly, within themselves, were they astonished;
He got into the boat with them; and the wind ceased, and they were very amazed amongst themselves, and marvelled;
52 for they understood not by the loaves, —but their, heart, had been, hardened.
for they hadn’t understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.
53 And crossing over unto the land, they came unto Gennesaret, and cast anchor near.
When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore.
54 And, when they had, come forth, out of the boat, straightway, recognizing him,
When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognised him,
55 the people ran round the whole of that country, and began to be carrying round, upon couches, them who were sick, wherever they heard that he was.
and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick on their mats to where they heard he was.
56 And, wheresoever he was entering into villages, or into cities, or into hamlets, in the marketplaces, laid they the sick, and were beseeching him, that, only the fringe of his mantle, they might touch, and, as many soever as touched it, were being made well.
Wherever he entered—into villages, or into cities, or into the country—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.
