Mark 1
1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Beginning of the glad-message of Jesus Christ.
2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
According as it is written in Isaiah the prophet—Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way, —
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
A voice of one crying aloud—In the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight, be making his paths.
4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
John the Immerser came, in the wilderness, proclaiming an immersion of repentance for remission of sins;
5 And all the country of Judea went out to him and all those from Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
and there were going out unto him all the Judaea country and all they of Jerusalem, and were being immersed by him in the Jordan river, openly confessing their sins;
6 And John was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
and John was clothed with camel’s-hair and a leathern girdle about his loins, and was eating locusts and wild honey;
7 And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
and he proclaimed, saying—He that is mightier than I cometh after [me], of whom I am not worthy to stoop and unloose the strap of his sandals:
8 I baptized you in water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit."
I, have immersed you, with water, —He, will immerse you, with the Holy Spirit.
9 And it happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
And it came to pass, in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed into the Jordan by John;
10 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
And, straightway, as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rending asunder, and, the Spirit, as a dove, descending unto him;
11 And a voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased."
and a voice [came] out of the heavens—Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, —In thee, I delight.
12 And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
And, straightway, the Spirit urgeth him forth into the wilderness;
13 He was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
and he was in the wilderness, forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts, —and, the messengers, were ministering unto him.
14 Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God,
And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the glad-message of God,
15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is near. Repent, and believe in the Good News."
[and saying]—The season is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God hath drawn near, —Repent ye, and have faith in the glad-message.
16 And passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
And, passing by near the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea, —for they were fishers;
17 Jesus said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
and Jesus said unto them—Come after me, and I will make you become fishers of men;
18 And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
and, straightway, leaving the nets, they followed him.
19 And going on a little further, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
And, going forward a little, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, and them who were in the boat putting in order the nets;
20 And immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
and, straightway, he called them, —and, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat, with the hired men, they came away after him.
21 And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
And they journey into Capernaum. And, straightway, on the Sabbath, entering into the synagogue, he began teaching;
22 And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
and they were being struck with astonishment at his teaching, —for he was teaching them as one having authority, and, not as the Scribes.
23 And just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,
And, straightway, there was in their synagogue, a man in an impure spirit, —and he cried out aloud,
24 saying, "What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
saying—What have we in common with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee, who thou art, The Holy One of God.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
And Jesus rebuked him, [saying]—Be silenced, and come forth out of him!
26 And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
And the impure spirit, tearing him, and calling out with a loud voice, came forth out of him;
27 And 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."
and they were amazed, one and all, so that they began to discuss among themselves, saying—What is this? New teaching! With authority, to the impure spirits also, he giveth orders, and they obey him!
28 And at once the news of him went out everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
And forth went the report of him, straightway, on every hand, into the surrounding country of Galilee.
29 And Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
And, straightway, out of the synagogue, going forth, he went unto the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Now Simon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
Now, the mother-in-law of Simon, was lying in a fever, and, straightway, they speak to him concerning her;
31 And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
and, coming near, he raised her up, grasping her hand, —and the fever left her, and she began ministering unto them.
32 At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
And, evening arriving, when the sun went in, they were bearing unto him all who were sick, and them who were demonized;
33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
and all the city was gathered unto the door;
34 And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
and he cured many that were sick with divers diseases, and, many demons, he cast out, and suffered not the demons to be talking, —because they knew him [to be Christ].
35 And early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
And, very early by night arising, he went out [and departed] into a desert place, and, there, was praying;
36 And Simon and those who were with him followed after him;
and Simon, and they who were with him, went in quest of him,
37 and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
and found him, and say unto him—All, are seeking thee;
38 And he said to them, "Let us go somewhere else into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason."
and he saith unto them—Let us be going elsewhere, into the neighbouring country-towns, in order that, there also, I may be making proclamation, —for, to this end, came I forth;
39 And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.
and he came, making proclamation, into their synagogues, throughout the whole of Galilee, —and, was casting the demons out.
40 And a leper came to him, begging him, and knelt down and said to him, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
And there cometh unto him, a leper, beseeching him and [kneeling], —saying unto him—If thou be willing, thou canst cleanse me;
41 And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."
and, moved with compassion, he stretched forth the hand, and touched him, and saith unto him—I am willing, Be cleansed!
42 And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
and, straightway, the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed;
43 And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
and, strictly charging him, straightway, he urged him forth;
44 and said to him, "See you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."
and saith unto him—Mind! unto no one, say aught, —but withdraw, thyself, show unto the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what things Moses enjoined, for a witness unto them.
45 But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
But, he, going forth, began to be proclaiming many things, and blazing abroad the story, so that, no longer, was it possible for him, openly, into a city, to enter, —but, outside, in desert places, [was he], and they were coming unto him from every quarter.
