Mark 1
1 A beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Son of God!
The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua Messiah [Salvation Anointed one], the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·.
2 As it is written in the prophets —“Take note, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.”
As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you:
3 “A voice calling out: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make His paths straight!’”—
the voice of one crys out in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of MarYah [Master Yahweh]! Make his paths straight!’”
4 John started baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
John [Yah is gracious] came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching the mikvah ·ritual washing baptism· of teshuvah ·complete repentance· for forgiveness of abstract sins ·miss the marks·.
5 Well, the whole Judean countryside and the Jerusalemites started going out to him, and were all being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
All the country of Judea [Praise] and all those of Jerusalem [City of peace] went out to him. They were immersed by him in the Jordan [Descender] river, confessing their abstract sins ·miss the marks·.
6 Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist; and he was eating locusts and wild honey.
John [Yah is gracious] was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 And he was proclaiming: “After me my Superior is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with Holy Spirit.”
I immersed you in water, but he will mikvah ·baptise· you in Ruach haKodesh [Spirit, Breath of the Holiness].”
9 Well it happened in those days that Jesus came from Natsareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
In those days, Yeshua [Salvation] came from Nazareth [Branch, Separated one] of Galilee [District, Circuit], and was immersed by John [Yah is gracious] in the Jordan [Descender].
10 And immediately upon coming up from the water He saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon Him.
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and haRuach [the Spirit, Breath] descending on him like a dove.
11 And a Voice came from the heavens: “You are my Son, the beloved, in whom I am well pleased!”
A voice came out of the sky, “You are my agapetos ·beloved, esteemed· Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 Immediately the Spirit impelled Him into the wilderness.
Immediately haRuach [the Spirit, Breath] drove him out into the wilderness.
13 And He was there in the wilderness forty days being tested by Satan, and was with the wild animals; and the angels were ministering to Him.
He was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan [Adversary]. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
14 Now after John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom of God,
Now after John [Yah is gracious] was taken into custody, Yeshua [Salvation] came into Galilee [District, Circuit], preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom,
15 and saying: “The time has been fulfilled and the Kingdom of God has approached. Repent and believe in the Gospel.”
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Teshuvah ·Turn repent·, and trust in the Good News.”
16 Then, as He was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother, of Simon, casting a circular net onto the water, for they were fishermen.
Passing along by the sea of Galilee [District, Circuit], he saw Simeon [Hearing] and Andrew [Manly] the brother of Simeon [Hearing] casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 So Jesus said to them: “Come, follow me and I will turn you into fishers of men.”
Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”
18 At once they left their nets and followed Him.
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 And going on from there a little ways He saw James, son of Zebedee, and his brother John; they were in their boat mending their nets.
Going on a little further from there, he saw James son of Zebedee [Surplanter son of Yah Has Bestowed], and John [Yah is gracious], his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Right away He called them, and leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men they followed Him.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee [Bestowed by Yah], in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Then they went into Capernaum. The very next Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.
They went into Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], and immediately on the Sabbath ·To cease· day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 And they kept on being amazed at His teaching, because He was teaching them as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the Torah-Teachers.
23 Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
24 saying: “Hey, what do you want with us, Jesus Natsarene?! Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Yeshua [Salvation], you Nazarene [person from Branch, Separated one]? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: haKadosh Elohim [the Holy One of God]!”
25 So Jesus rebuked him saying: “Shut up and get out of him!”
Yeshua [Salvation] rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”
26 The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 And all were astounded, so that they questioned among themselves, saying: “What is this? What can this new doctrine be? Because with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
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 So His fame spread directly into the whole surrounding area of Galilee.
The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee [District, Circuit] and its surrounding area.
29 Immediately upon exiting the synagogue they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simeon [Hearing] and Andrew [Manly], with James [Surplanter] and John [Yah is gracious].
30 Simon's mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, so without delay they told Him about her.
Now Simeon [Hearing]’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 So He went and grasping her hand lifted her up; immediately the fever left her and she began to serve them.
He came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
32 That evening, when the sun had set, they started bringing to Him all who were sick and the demonized.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
33 So much so that the whole town was gathered at the door,
All the city was gathered together at the door.
34 and He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew He was Messiah.
He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Now very early, still night, He got up, slipped out, and went off to a solitary place, where He was praying.
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 Simon and those with him hunted for Him,
Simeon [Hearing] and those who were with him followed after him;
37 and upon finding Him they said to Him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
and they found him, and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 But He said to them: “Let us go to the neighboring towns, so I can preach there also; that is why I have come.”
He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.”
39 He was constantly preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and also casting out demons.
He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee [District, Circuit], preaching and casting out demons.
40 A leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling before Him and saying to Him, “If you want to, you are able to cleanse me.”
A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”
41 So being moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him: “I want to; be cleansed!”
Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”
42 And when He said this, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
When he had said this, immediately the tzara'at ·leprosy· departed from him, and he was made clean.
43 And He sent him away at once, sternly warning him,
He strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
44 by saying: “See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
and said to him, “See you say nothing to anybody; instead, as a testimony to the people, go and let the priest examine you, and make an offer for your cleansing, as Moses [Drawn out] commanded.”
45 However he went out and began to proclaim it freely, spreading the news, so that He was no longer able to enter a town openly, but remained outside in deserted places; yet they kept coming to Him from all over.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua [Salvation] could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
