< Mark 1 >

1 Here is the beginning of the good news about Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
THE beginning of the Gospel of Jeshu Meshicha, the Son of Aloha.
2 Just as the prophet Isaiah wrote, “I'm sending my messenger ahead of you to prepare your way.
As it is written in Eshaia the prophet: Behold, I send my angel before thy face, Who shall make straight thy way.
3 A voice is calling in the desert, ‘Prepare the Lord's way! Make his paths straight.’”
The voice which crieth in the desert, Prepare the way of the Lord, Make level his paths.
4 John came, baptizing in the desert, announcing a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
Juchanon was in the desert, baptizing, and proclaiming the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 Everybody from the country of Judea and from Jerusalem went to him. They admitted their sins publicly and were baptized in the Jordan River.
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.
6 John wore clothes made of camel hair, with a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
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.
7 This is what he had to say: “After me someone is coming who is greater than I am. I'm not worthy to bend down and untie his sandals.
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.
8 I baptized you in water but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.”
I have baptized you with waters; but he shall baptize you with the Spirit of Holiness.
9 Then Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan River.
And it was in those days that Jeshu came from Natsrath of Galila, and was baptized in Jurdan by Juchanon.
10 As Jesus came out of the water, he saw the heavens split apart and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him.
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.
11 A voice from heaven said, “You are my son, the one I love. I am very pleased with you.”
And the voice was from the heavens, Thou art my Son, the Beloved: in thee I have delighted.
12 Right after this the Spirit sent him away into the desert
And immediately the Spirit led him forth into the desert.
13 where he was tempted by Satan for forty days. He was with the wild animals, and angels took care of him.
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.
14 Later, after John was arrested, Jesus went to Galilee, announcing God's good news.
BUT after Juchanon was delivered up, Jeshu came to Galila, and proclaimed the annunciation of the kingdom of Aloha.
15 “The time predicted has come,” he said. “God's kingdom has arrived! Repent and believe in the good news.”
And he said, The time is complete; the kingdom of Aloha cometh: repent, and believe the gospel.
16 As he was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, Jesus saw Simon and his brother Andrew throwing a net into the water, for they made their living by fishing.
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.
17 “Come and follow me,” he told them, “and I will have you fishing for people.”
And Jeshu said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of the sons of men.
18 They left their nets at once and followed him.
And at once they forsook their nets, and went after him.
19 He went a little farther and saw James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee. They were in a boat mending their nets.
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.
20 Immediately he called them to follow him, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired workers, and followed Jesus.
And he called them; and forthwith they left Zabdai their father with the hirelings, and went after him.
21 They left for Capernaum, and on Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and taught there.
And when they were come to Kapher-nachum, he forthwith taught on the sabbaths in their assemblies.
22 The people were amazed at his teaching, for he spoke with authority, unlike the religious teachers.
And they wondered at his doctrine; for he taught them as having power, and not as their Sophree.
23 Suddenly, right there in the synagogue, a man with an evil spirit started shouting out,
And there was in their assembly a man who had an unclean spirit: and he cried
24 “Jesus of Nazareth, why are you bothering us? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are! You're God's Holy One!”
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.
25 Jesus interrupted the evil spirit, telling him, “Be quiet! Come out of him.”
And Jeshu restrained him, and said, Close thy mouth, and come forth from him.
26 The evil spirit screamed, threw the man into convulsions, and came out of him.
And the impure spirit threw him down, and cried with a high voice, and went forth from him.
27 Everyone was amazed at what happened. “What is this?” they asked each other. “What is this new teaching that has such authority? Even evil spirits do what he tells them!”
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.
28 News about him spread quickly throughout the whole region of Galilee.
And his fame soon went out through all the region of Galila.
29 Then they left the synagogue and went to the home of Simon and Andrew, along with James and John.
And he proceeded from the assembly, and came to the house of Shemun and Andreas with Jacub and Juchanon.
30 Simon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, so they told Jesus about her.
And the mother-in-law of Shemun was lying in a fever; and they told him concerning her.
31 He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever immediately left her. Then she made them a meal.
And he approached, took her by her hand; and she arose, and at once the fever left her, and she served them.
32 After sunset that evening, those who were sick and demon-possessed were brought to Jesus.
Then in the evening at sun-setting they brought to him all those who were grievously affected and demoniacs.
33 The whole of the town gathered outside.
And the whole city was assembled at the gate:
34 He healed many people who had various diseases, and threw out many demons. He did not permit the demons to speak, for they knew who he was.
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.
35 Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and went alone to a quiet place to pray.
AND in the morning he arose long before (day), and went into a solitude, and there prayed.
36 Simon and the others went to search for him.
And Shemun and (they) who (were) with him sought for him;
37 When they found him, they told him, “Everybody's looking for you.”
and when they had found him, they said to him, All men are seeking thee.
38 But Jesus replied, “We have to go to the other towns around here so that I can tell them the good news as well—for that's why I came.”
He said to them, Proceed you to the neighbouring towns and cities; for there also I will preach, because for this am I come.
39 So he went all over Galilee, speaking in the synagogues and expelling demons.
And he preached in all their assemblies in all Galila, and cast out devils.
40 A leper came to him asking for help. The man kneeled down before Jesus, saying, “Please, if you're willing, you can heal me!”
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.
41 With compassion Jesus reached out and touched the man, and said, “I am willing. Be healed!”
And Jeshu had compassion on him, and stretched forth his hand, touched him, and said, I will, be clean.
42 The leprosy left him immediately, and he was healed.
And in that very hour his leprosy went from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Jesus sent him away with a strong warning.
And he restrained him, and led him forth,
44 “Make sure you don't tell anybody anything about this,” he told him. “Go to the priest and show yourself to him. Give the offering which is required by the law of Moses for such cleansing, so that people will have proof.”
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.
45 But the healed leper went out and told everyone what had happened. As a result Jesus could not openly go into the cities anymore, but had to stay out in the country where people came to him from everywhere around.
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.
