< Mark 1 >

1 THE beginning of the Gospel of Jeshu Meshicha, the Son of Aloha.
The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 As it is written in Eshaia the prophet: Behold, I send my angel before thy face, Who shall make straight thy way.
As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
3 The voice which crieth in the desert, Prepare the way of the Lord, Make level his paths.
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
4 Juchanon was in the desert, baptizing, and proclaiming the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
5 And all the region of Jehud and all the sons of Urishlem went out to him; and he baptized them in Jurdan the river, while they were confessing their sins.
And all the country of Judea went out to him and all those from Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
6 But Juchanon himself was clothed with a garment of the hair of camels, and engirded with a belt of leather upon his loins; and his food was locusts and wilderness honey.
And John was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 And he proclaimed and said, Behold, (One) cometh after me, who is mightier than I; he, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to bow myself to unloose.
And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 I have baptized you with waters; but he shall baptize you with the Spirit of Holiness.
I baptized you in water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit."
9 And it was in those days that Jeshu came from Natsrath of Galila, and was baptized in Jurdan by Juchanon.
And it happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 And as soon as he had ascended from the waters, he saw the heavens part asunder, and the Spirit, as a dove, descend upon him.
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 And the voice was from the heavens, Thou art my Son, the Beloved: in thee I have delighted.
And a voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased."
12 And immediately the Spirit led him forth into the desert.
And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
13 And he was there in the desert forty days, being tempted by Satana: and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.
He was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
14 BUT after Juchanon was delivered up, Jeshu came to Galila, and proclaimed the annunciation of the kingdom of Aloha.
Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God,
15 And he said, The time is complete; the kingdom of Aloha cometh: repent, and believe the gospel.
and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is near. Repent, and believe in the Good News."
16 And while he walked about the sea of Galila, he saw Shemun and Andreas his brother, who were casting nets into the sea: for they were fishers.
And passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 And Jeshu said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of the sons of men.
Jesus said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
18 And at once they forsook their nets, and went after him.
And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
19 And when he had passed on a little, he saw Jakub bar Zabdai and Juchanon his brother; and they also were in a vessel, preparing their nets.
And going on a little further, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 And he called them; and forthwith they left Zabdai their father with the hirelings, and went after him.
And immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 And when they were come to Kapher-nachum, he forthwith taught on the sabbaths in their assemblies.
And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 And they wondered at his doctrine; for he taught them as having power, and not as their Sophree.
And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 And there was in their assembly a man who had an unclean spirit: and he cried
And just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,
24 and said, What to us and to thee, Jeshu Natsroya? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of Aloha.
saying, "What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
25 And Jeshu restrained him, and said, Close thy mouth, and come forth from him.
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
26 And the impure spirit threw him down, and cried with a high voice, and went forth from him.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 And all wondered, and questioned one with another, Who is this? and what is this new doctrine? because with authority he commandeth the impure spirits, and they obey him.
And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."
28 And his fame soon went out through all the region of Galila.
And at once the news of him went out everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
29 And he proceeded from the assembly, and came to the house of Shemun and Andreas with Jacub and Juchanon.
And Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 And the mother-in-law of Shemun was lying in a fever; and they told him concerning her.
Now Simon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 And he approached, took her by her hand; and she arose, and at once the fever left her, and she served them.
And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
32 Then in the evening at sun-setting they brought to him all those who were grievously affected and demoniacs.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
33 And the whole city was assembled at the gate:
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 and he healed multitudes who were grievously affected with various diseases, and cast out many demons, and would not permit the demons to speak; for they knew him.
And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 AND in the morning he arose long before (day), and went into a solitude, and there prayed.
And early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
36 And Shemun and (they) who (were) with him sought for him;
And Simon and those who were with him followed after him;
37 and when they had found him, they said to him, All men are seeking thee.
and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
38 He said to them, Proceed you to the neighbouring towns and cities; for there also I will preach, because for this am I come.
And he said to them, "Let us go somewhere else into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason."
39 And he preached in all their assemblies in all Galila, and cast out devils.
And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.
40 And a leper came to him, and fell at his feet, and besought him, and said to him, If thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.
And a leper came to him, begging him, and knelt down and said to him, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
41 And Jeshu had compassion on him, and stretched forth his hand, touched him, and said, I will, be clean.
And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."
42 And in that very hour his leprosy went from him, and he was cleansed.
And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
43 And he restrained him, and led him forth,
And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
44 and said to him, See lest thou tell any one; but go, show thyself to the priests, and offer the oblation for thy purification as Musha commanded for their testimony.
and said to him, "See you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."
45 But he, when he was gone forth, began to announce it much, and so divulged the matter as that Jeshu could not go openly in the city, but was without in a solitary part: and they came to him from every place.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
