Mark 10
1 And having risen from there, He comes to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again multitudes come together to Him, and as He had been accustomed, again He was teaching them.
On leaving that place Jesus came into the borders of Judea, on the other side of the Jordan, Once more the people flocked about him, and again, as usual, he began teaching them.
2 And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned Him if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting Him,
Presently some Pharisees came up and tested him, by asking if it was lawful for a man to divorce his wife.
3 and He answering said to them, “What did Moses command you?”
"What did Moses command you?" he replied,
4 And they said, “Moses permitted to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.”
"Moses," said they, "permitted a man to draw up a bill of separation and divorce her."
5 And Jesus answering said to them, “For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,
But Jesus said to them. "Moses gave you that command because of the hardness of your hearts;
6 but from the beginning of the creation God made them a male and a female;
but from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
7 on this account will a man leave his father and mother, and will cleave to his wife,
"For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh;
8 and they will be—the two—for one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh;
so that they are no more two, but one flesh.
9 what God therefore joined together, do not let man separate.”
What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder."
10 And in the house His disciples again questioned Him of the same thing,
When indoors the disciples began to question Jesus again about this, and he said.
11 and He says to them, “Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, commits adultery against her;
"Any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her;
12 and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she commits adultery.”
and if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery."
13 And they were bringing to Him children that He might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,
Now people were bringing little children to Jesus for him to touch them; but the disciples rebuked them.
14 and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and He said to them, “Permit the children to come to Me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the Kingdom of God;
Jesus was indignant when he saw it, and said. "Let the little children come to me. Do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such.
15 truly I say to you, whoever may not receive the Kingdom of God as a child—he may not enter into it”;
I tell you true that unless a man receives the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not even enter it."
16 and having taken them in His arms, having put [His] hands on them, He was blessing them.
Then he took them in his arms, and laid his hand upon them in blessing.
17 And as He is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to Him, was questioning Him, “Good Teacher, what may I do that I may inherit continuous life?” (aiōnios g166)
As he started to go forth into the road, a man came running up to him, and knelt down before him. "Good Teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?" (aiōnios g166)
18 And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one [is] good except one—God;
Jesus said to him. "Why do you call me ‘good’? No one is good save one, God himself.
19 you have known the commands: You may not commit adultery, You may not murder, You may not steal, You may not bear false witness, You may not defraud, Honor your father and mother.”
You know the commandments. Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not cheat, honor your father and mother."
20 And he answering said to Him, “Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth.”
"Teacher," he answered, "I have observed all these from my youth."
21 And Jesus having looked on him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: go away, whatever you have—sell, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come, follow Me, having taken up the cross.”
Jesus loved him as he looked at him, and said. "One thing you lack. Go, sell all you have and give to the poor; and you shall have wealth in heaven; and come, follow me."
22 And he—gloomy at the word—went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.
But his face fell at these words, and he went away saddened, for he was one who had great wealth.
23 And Jesus having looked around, says to His disciples, “How hardly will they who have riches enter into the Kingdom of God!”
Then Jesus looked round on his disciples and said, "How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter into the kingdom of God!"
24 And the disciples were astonished at His words, and Jesus again answering says to them, “Children, how hard it is to those trusting on riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!
The disciples were amazed at his words. Jesus looked around and said again to them.
25 It is easier for a camel to enter through the eye of the needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”
"My sons, how hard it is for those who trust in money to enter the kingdom of God. It is easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven."
26 And they were astonished beyond measure, saying to themselves, “And who is able to be saved?”
"Then who can be saved?" they said to themselves astonished beyond measure.
27 And Jesus, having looked on them, says, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.”
When he had looked at them, Jesus said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God."
28 And Peter began to say to Him, “Behold, we left all, and we followed You.”
"But we," Peter began to say, "we have left our all and have followed you."
29 And Jesus answering said, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for My sake, and for the good news’,
"I tell you solemnly," said Jesus, "that there is no man who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for my sake and the gospel’s,
31 and many first will be last, and the last first.”
But many who are first shall be last, and the last, first."
32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the Twelve, He began to tell them the things about to happen to Him:
They were still on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus led the way; and they were amazed, and some, although they followed, were afraid. Then once more he took the Twelve, and began to tell them what was about to befall him.
33 “Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they will condemn Him to death, and will deliver Him to the nations,
"See," said he, "we are going up to Jerusalem and the Son of man will be betrayed to the high priests and the Scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will hand him over to the Gentiles,
34 and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him, and the third day He will rise again.”
who will mock him, spit upon him, flog him, and put him to death; and after three days he will rise again."
35 And there come near to Him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, “Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, You may do for us”;
Presently there came up to him Jamesand John, the sons of Zebedee, and said, "Teacher, we wish you would do for us whatever we ask you."
36 and He said to them, “What do you wish Me to do for you?”
"What is it you want me to do for you?" said he.
37 And they said to Him, “Grant to us that, one on Your right hand and one on Your left, we may sit in Your glory”;
They answered, "Allow us to sit, one at your right hand, and the other at your left hand, in your glory."
38 and Jesus said to them, “You have not known what you ask; are you able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the immersion that I am immersed with—to be immersed?”
"You know not what you are asking," said Jesus. "Can you drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"
39 And they said to Him, “We are able”; and Jesus said to them, “Of the cup indeed that I drink of, you will drink, and with the immersion that I am immersed with, you will be immersed;
They answered him, "We can." "You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with shall you be baptized,
40 but to sit on My right and on My left is not Mine to give, but—to those for whom it has been prepared.”
but a seat upon my right hand or my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been reserved."
41 And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,
When they heard this the ten began to be indignant at Jamesand John, so Jesus called them to him and said.
42 but Jesus having called them near, says to them, “You have known that they who are considered to rule the nations exercise lordship over them, and their great ones exercise authority on them;
"You know that those who are regarded as rulers among the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones make them feel their authority.
43 but not so will it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he will be your minister,
Not so shall it be among you. On the contrary whoever would become great among you shall be your servant;
44 and whoever of you may will to become first, he will be servant of all;
and whoever among you would be first, shall be slave of all,
45 for even the Son of Man did not come to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give His life [as] a ransom for many.”
and justly, for even the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life, a ransom for many."
46 And they come to Jericho, and as He is going forth from Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus—Bartimaeus the blind—was sitting beside the way begging,
Then they reached Jericho; and as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimeus, the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting beside the road.
47 and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, “The Son of David—Jesus! Deal kindly with me”;
Hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began shouting and saying, "Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me!"
48 and many were rebuking him that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, “Son of David, deal kindly with me.”
and many kept rebuking him and telling him to be quiet, but he only shouted much louder, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"
49 And Jesus having stood, He commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, “Take courage, rise, He calls you”;
Then Jesus stood still, saying, "Call him." So they called the blind man, and said, "Courage, rise, he is calling you."
50 and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, came to Jesus.
The man threw off his cloak, sprang to his feet, and came to Jesus.
51 And answering, Jesus says to him, “What do you will I may do to you?” And the blind man said to Him, “Rabboni, that I may see again”;
"What do you want me to do?" said Jesus, addressing him. And the blind man answered, "O Rabboni, that I might receive my sight!"
52 and Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has saved you”: and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
"Go," said Jesus, "your own faith has saved you," and immediately he received his sight, and began to follow Jesus along the road.
