< Mark 1 >
1 This is the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
The beginning of the evangel of Yahushua the Messiah, the Son of YHWH;
2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: “Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way.”
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him.’”
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of YHWH, make his paths straight.
4 John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 People went out to him from all of Jerusalem and the countryside of Judea. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.
And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 John was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.
And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
7 And he began to proclaim: “After me will come One more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
8 I baptize you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit.
9 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
And it came to pass in those days, that Yahushua came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
10 As soon as Jesus came up out of the water, He saw the heavens breaking open and the Spirit descending on Him like a dove.
And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
11 And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 At once the Spirit drove Jesus into the wilderness,
And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
13 and He was there for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and the angels ministered to Him.
And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
14 After the arrest of John, Jesus went into Galilee and proclaimed the gospel of God.
Now after that John was put in prison, Yahushua came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of YHWH,
15 “The time is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the gospel!”
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of YHWH is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
16 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
17 “Come, follow Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”
And Yahushua said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
18 And at once they left their nets and followed Him.
And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.
19 Going on a little farther, He saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat, mending their nets.
And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.
20 Immediately Jesus called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed Him.
And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Then Jesus and His companions went to Capernaum, and right away Jesus entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and began to teach.
And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
22 The people were astonished at His teaching, because He taught as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.
And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Suddenly a man with an unclean spirit cried out in the synagogue:
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 “What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Yahushua of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of YHWH.
25 But Jesus rebuked the spirit. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!”
And Yahushua rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26 At this, the unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions and came out with a loud shriek.
And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
27 All the people were amazed and began to ask one another, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”
And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
28 And the news about Jesus spread quickly through the whole region of Galilee.
And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
29 As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew.
And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Simon’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and they promptly told Jesus about her.
But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.
31 So He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever left her, and she began to serve them.
And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
32 That evening, after sunset, people brought to Jesus all who were sick and demon-possessed,
And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
33 and the whole town gathered at the door.
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 And He healed many who were ill with various diseases and drove out many demons. But He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.
And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
35 Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and slipped out to a solitary place to pray.
And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
36 Simon and his companions went to look for Him,
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
37 and when they found Him, they said, “Everyone is looking for You!”
And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.
38 But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come.”
And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
39 So He went throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.
And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
40 Then a leper came to Jesus, begging on his knees: “If You are willing, You can make me clean.”
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41 Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!”
And Yahushua, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.
42 And immediately the leprosy left him, and the man was cleansed.
And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Jesus promptly sent him away with a stern warning:
And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
44 “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45 But the man went out and openly began to proclaim and spread the news. Consequently, Jesus could no longer enter a town in plain view, but He stayed out in solitary places. Yet people came to Him from every quarter.
But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Yahushua could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
