< Mark 1 >

1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, Son of God.
2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
As it has been written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
A voice of one calling in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the LORD, Make His paths straight.”
4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
John came immersing in the wilderness, and proclaiming an immersion of conversion for forgiveness 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 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.
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 girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
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 comes—who is mightier than I—after me, of whom I am not worthy—having stooped down—to loose the strap of His sandals;
8 I baptized you in water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit."
I indeed immersed you in water, but He will immerse you in 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, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by John in the Jordan;
10 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
and immediately coming up from the water, He saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit coming down on Him as a dove;
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, “You are My Son, the Beloved, in whom I delighted.”
12 And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
And immediately the Spirit puts 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 there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan, and He was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to Him.
14 Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God,
And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom 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 time has been fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God has come near, convert and believe in the good news.”
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 walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon, and his brother Andrew, casting a drag into 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 to them, “Come after Me, and I will make you to become fishers of men”;
18 And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
and immediately, having left their 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 having gone on there a little, He saw James of Zebedee, and his brother John, and they were in the boat refitting 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 immediately He called them, and having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after Him.
21 And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the Sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, He was teaching,
22 And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
and they were astonished at His teaching, for He was teaching them as 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 there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
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 [regards] us and You, Jesus the Nazarene? You came to destroy us; I have known You, who You are—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 unclean spirit having convulsed him, and having cried with a great 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 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!”
28 And at once the news of him went out everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
And the fame of Him went forth immediately to all the region 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 immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went into 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.
and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell Him about her,
31 And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
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.
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 having come, when the sun set, they brought to Him all who were ill and who were demoniacs,
33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
and the whole city was gathered together near 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 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.
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, it being yet night, having risen, He went forth, and went away to a desolate place, and was praying there;
36 And Simon and those who were with him followed after him;
and Simon and those with him went in quest of Him,
37 and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
and having found Him, they say to Him, “All seek You”;
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 says to them, “We may go into the next towns, that there also I may preach, for—for this I came forth.”
39 And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.
And He was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
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 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.”
41 And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."
And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him and says to him, “I will, be cleansed”;
42 And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
and He having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
43 And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
And having sternly charged him, immediately He put 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 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.”
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.
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.
