< Mark 1 >
1 A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, Son of God.
Ἀρχὴ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου Ἰησοῦ ⸀χριστοῦ
2 As it has been written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.
⸀Καθὼςγέγραπται ἐν ⸂τῷ Ἠσαΐᾳ τῷ προφήτῃ· ⸀Ἰδοὺ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, ὃς κατασκευάσει τὴν ὁδόν ⸀σου·
3 A voice of one calling in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the LORD, Make His paths straight.”
φωνὴ βοῶντος ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ· Ἑτοιμάσατε τὴν ὁδὸν κυρίου, εὐθείας ποιεῖτε τὰς τρίβους αὐτοῦ,
4 John came immersing in the wilderness, and proclaiming an immersion of conversion for forgiveness of sins,
ἐγένετο Ἰωάννης ⸀ὁβαπτίζων ἐν τῇ ⸀ἐρήμῳκηρύσσων βάπτισμα μετανοίας εἰς ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν.
5 and there were going forth to him all the region of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and they were all immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
καὶ ἐξεπορεύετο πρὸς αὐτὸν πᾶσα ἡ Ἰουδαία χώρα καὶ οἱ Ἱεροσολυμῖται ⸂πάντες, καὶ ἐβαπτίζοντο⸃ ⸂ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Ἰορδάνῃ ποταμῷ⸃ ἐξομολογούμενοι τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν.
6 And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and a girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
⸂καὶ ἦν ὁ Ἰωάννης ἐνδεδυμένος τρίχας καμήλου καὶ ζώνην δερματίνην περὶ τὴν ὀσφὺν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔσθων ἀκρίδας καὶ μέλι ἄγριον.
7 and he proclaimed, saying, “He comes—who is mightier than I—after me, of whom I am not worthy—having stooped down—to loose the strap of His sandals;
καὶ ἐκήρυσσεν λέγων· Ἔρχεται ὁ ἰσχυρότερός μου ὀπίσω μου, οὗ οὐκ εἰμὶ ἱκανὸς κύψας λῦσαι τὸν ἱμάντα τῶν ὑποδημάτων αὐτοῦ·
8 I indeed immersed you in water, but He will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.”
⸀ἐγὼἐβάπτισα ⸀ὑμᾶςὕδατι, αὐτὸς δὲ βαπτίσει ὑμᾶς ⸀ἐνπνεύματι ἁγίῳ.
9 And it came to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by John in the Jordan;
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις ἦλθεν Ἰησοῦς ἀπὸ Ναζαρὲτ τῆς Γαλιλαίας καὶ ἐβαπτίσθη ⸂εἰς τὸν Ἰορδάνην ὑπὸ Ἰωάννου.
10 and immediately coming up from the water, He saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit coming down on Him as a dove;
καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςἀναβαίνων ⸀ἐκτοῦ ὕδατος εἶδεν σχιζομένους τοὺς οὐρανοὺς καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα ⸀ὡςπεριστερὰν καταβαῖνον ⸀εἰςαὐτόν·
11 and a voice came out of the heavens, “You are My Son, the Beloved, in whom I delighted.”
καὶ φωνὴ ἐγένετο ἐκ τῶν οὐρανῶν· Σὺ εἶ ὁ υἱός μου ὁ ἀγαπητός, ἐν ⸀σοὶεὐδόκησα.
12 And immediately the Spirit puts Him forth into the wilderness,
Καὶ εὐθὺς τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτὸν ἐκβάλλει εἰς τὴν ἔρημον.
13 and He was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan, and He was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to Him.
καὶ ⸀ἦνἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ⸂τεσσεράκοντα ἡμέρας πειραζόμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ Σατανᾶ, καὶ ἦν μετὰ τῶν θηρίων, καὶ οἱ ἄγγελοι διηκόνουν αὐτῷ.
14 And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God,
⸂Καὶ μετὰ τὸ παραδοθῆναι τὸν Ἰωάννην ἦλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὴν Γαλιλαίαν κηρύσσων τὸ ⸀εὐαγγέλιοντοῦ θεοῦ
15 and saying, “The time has been fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God has come near, convert and believe in the good news.”
καὶ λέγων ὅτι Πεπλήρωται ὁ καιρὸς καὶ ἤγγικεν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ· μετανοεῖτε καὶ πιστεύετε ἐν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ.
16 And walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon, and his brother Andrew, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers,
⸂Καὶ παράγων παρὰ τὴν θάλασσαν τῆς Γαλιλαίας εἶδεν Σίμωνα καὶ Ἀνδρέαν τὸν ⸀ἀδελφὸνΣίμωνος ⸀ἀμφιβάλλονταςἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ, ἦσαν γὰρ ἁλιεῖς·
17 and Jesus said to them, “Come after Me, and I will make you to become fishers of men”;
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Δεῦτε ὀπίσω μου, καὶ ποιήσω ὑμᾶς γενέσθαι ἁλιεῖς ἀνθρώπων.
18 and immediately, having left their nets, they followed Him.
καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςἀφέντες τὰ ⸀δίκτυαἠκολούθησαν αὐτῷ.
19 And having gone on there a little, He saw James of Zebedee, and his brother John, and they were in the boat refitting the nets,
καὶ ⸀προβὰςὀλίγον εἶδεν Ἰάκωβον τὸν τοῦ Ζεβεδαίου καὶ Ἰωάννην τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ καταρτίζοντας τὰ δίκτυα,
20 and immediately He called them, and having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after Him.
καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςἐκάλεσεν αὐτούς. καὶ ἀφέντες τὸν πατέρα αὐτῶν Ζεβεδαῖον ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ μετὰ τῶν μισθωτῶν ἀπῆλθον ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ.
21 And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the Sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, He was teaching,
Καὶ εἰσπορεύονται εἰς Καφαρναούμ. καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςτοῖς σάββασιν ⸂ἐδίδασκεν εἰς τὴν συναγωγήν.
22 and they were astonished at His teaching, for He was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
καὶ ἐξεπλήσσοντο ἐπὶ τῇ διδαχῇ αὐτοῦ, ἦν γὰρ διδάσκων αὐτοὺς ὡς ἐξουσίαν ἔχων καὶ οὐχ ὡς οἱ γραμματεῖς.
23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςἦν ἐν τῇ συναγωγῇ αὐτῶν ἄνθρωπος ἐν πνεύματι ἀκαθάρτῳ καὶ ἀνέκραξεν
24 saying, “What [regards] us and You, Jesus the Nazarene? You came to destroy us; I have known You, who You are—the Holy One of God.”
λέγων· ⸀Τίἡμῖν καὶ σοί, Ἰησοῦ Ναζαρηνέ; ἦλθες ἀπολέσαι ἡμᾶς; οἶδά σε τίς εἶ, ὁ ἅγιος τοῦ θεοῦ.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silenced, and come forth out of him,”
καὶ ἐπετίμησεν αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς λέγων· Φιμώθητι καὶ ἔξελθε ἐξ αὐτοῦ.
26 and the unclean spirit having convulsed him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth out of him,
καὶ σπαράξαν αὐτὸν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἀκάθαρτον καὶ ⸀φωνῆσανφωνῇ μεγάλῃ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ αὐτοῦ.
27 and they were all amazed, so as to reason among themselves, saying, “What is this? What new teaching [is] this? That with authority He also commands the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”
καὶ ἐθαμβήθησαν ⸀ἅπαντες ὥστε συζητεῖν ⸂πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς λέγοντας· Τί ἐστιν τοῦτο; ⸂διδαχὴ καινή· κατʼ ἐξουσίαν καὶ τοῖς πνεύμασι τοῖς ἀκαθάρτοις ἐπιτάσσει, καὶ ὑπακούουσιν αὐτῷ.
28 And the fame of Him went forth immediately to all the region of Galilee.
⸂καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἡ ἀκοὴ αὐτοῦ εὐθὺς ⸀πανταχοῦεἰς ὅλην τὴν περίχωρον τῆς Γαλιλαίας.
29 And immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John,
Καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςἐκ τῆς συναγωγῆς ⸂ἐξελθόντες ἦλθον εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν Σίμωνος καὶ Ἀνδρέου μετὰ Ἰακώβου καὶ Ἰωάννου.
30 and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell Him about her,
ἡ δὲ πενθερὰ Σίμωνος κατέκειτο πυρέσσουσα, καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςλέγουσιν αὐτῷ περὶ αὐτῆς.
31 and having come near, He raised her up, having laid hold of her hand, and the fever left her immediately, and she was ministering to them.
καὶ προσελθὼν ἤγειρεν αὐτὴν κρατήσας τῆς ⸀χειρός καὶ ἀφῆκεν αὐτὴν ὁ ⸀πυρετός καὶ διηκόνει αὐτοῖς.
32 And evening having come, when the sun set, they brought to Him all who were ill and who were demoniacs,
Ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης, ὅτε ⸀ἔδυὁ ἥλιος, ἔφερον πρὸς αὐτὸν πάντας τοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας καὶ τοὺς δαιμονιζομένους·
33 and the whole city was gathered together near the door,
καὶ ⸂ἦν ὅλη ἡ πόλις ἐπισυνηγμένη πρὸς τὴν θύραν.
34 and He healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and He cast forth many demons, and was not permitting the demons to speak, because they knew Him.
καὶ ἐθεράπευσεν πολλοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας ποικίλαις νόσοις, καὶ δαιμόνια πολλὰ ἐξέβαλεν, καὶ οὐκ ἤφιεν λαλεῖν τὰ δαιμόνια, ὅτι ᾔδεισαν ⸀αὐτόν
35 And very early, it being yet night, having risen, He went forth, and went away to a desolate place, and was praying there;
Καὶ πρωῒ ἔννυχα λίαν ἀναστὰς ἐξῆλθεν καὶ ἀπῆλθεν εἰς ἔρημον τόπον κἀκεῖ προσηύχετο.
36 and Simon and those with him went in quest of Him,
καὶ ⸀κατεδίωξεναὐτὸν ⸀Σίμωνκαὶ οἱ μετʼ αὐτοῦ,
37 and having found Him, they say to Him, “All seek You”;
καὶ ⸂εὗρον αὐτὸν καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ ὅτι Πάντες ⸂ζητοῦσίν σε.
38 and He says to them, “We may go into the next towns, that there also I may preach, for—for this I came forth.”
καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· Ἄγωμεν ⸀ἀλλαχοῦεἰς τὰς ἐχομένας κωμοπόλεις, ἵνα καὶ ἐκεῖ κηρύξω, εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ ⸀ἐξῆλθον
39 And He was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
καὶ ⸀ἦλθενκηρύσσων ⸂εἰς τὰς συναγωγὰς αὐτῶν εἰς ὅλην τὴν Γαλιλαίαν καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια ἐκβάλλων.
40 and there comes to Him a leper, calling on Him, and kneeling to Him, and saying to Him, “If You may will, You are able to cleanse me.”
Καὶ ἔρχεται πρὸς αὐτὸν λεπρὸς παρακαλῶν αὐτὸν καὶ ⸀γονυπετῶνλέγων αὐτῷ ὅτι Ἐὰν θέλῃς δύνασαί με καθαρίσαι.
41 And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him and says to him, “I will, be cleansed”;
⸀καὶ⸀ὀργισθεὶςἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα ⸂αὐτοῦ ἥψατο καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· Θέλω, καθαρίσθητι·
42 and He having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
καὶ ⸀εὐθὺςἀπῆλθεν ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ ἡ λέπρα, καὶ ἐκαθαρίσθη.
43 And having sternly charged him, immediately He put him forth,
καὶ ἐμβριμησάμενος αὐτῷ ⸀εὐθὺςἐξέβαλεν αὐτόν,
44 and says to him, “See [that] you may say nothing to anyone, but go away, show yourself to the priest, and bring near for your cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony to them.”
καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· Ὅρα μηδενὶ μηδὲν εἴπῃς, ἀλλὰ ὕπαγε σεαυτὸν δεῖξον τῷ ἱερεῖ καὶ προσένεγκε περὶ τοῦ καθαρισμοῦ σου ἃ προσέταξεν Μωϋσῆς εἰς μαρτύριον αὐτοῖς.
45 And he, having gone forth, began to proclaim much, and to spread the thing abroad, so that He was no longer able to openly enter into the city, but He was outside in desolate places, and they were coming to Him from every quarter.
ὁ δὲ ἐξελθὼν ἤρξατο κηρύσσειν πολλὰ καὶ διαφημίζειν τὸν λόγον, ὥστε μηκέτι αὐτὸν δύνασθαι φανερῶς εἰς πόλιν εἰσελθεῖν, ἀλλὰ ἔξω ⸀ἐπʼἐρήμοις τόποις ἦν· καὶ ἤρχοντο πρὸς αὐτὸν ⸀πάντοθεν
