Mark 10
1 He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Crowds came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.
And He arose from thence and came into the coasts of Judea, through the country beyond Jordan: and the people resorted to Him again; and, as He was wont, He taught them again.
2 Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"
And the pharisees came to Him and asked Him, "if it were lawful for a man to put away his wife," tempting Him.
3 He answered, "What did Moses command you?"
And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
4 They said, "Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her."
And they said, Moses permitted a man to write a bill of divorce, and to put her away.
5 But Jesus said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
And Jesus replied, He wrote this precept on account of your cruel tempers:
6 But from the beginning of the creation, he made them male and female.
but from the beginning of the world, God created them male and female.
7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother,
8 and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
and be joined to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh: so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no one separate."
Therefore let not man separate what God hath joined together.
10 In the house, the disciples asked him again about the same matter.
And when they were in the house his disciples asked Him again about it:
11 He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her.
and He told them, Whoever putteth away his wife and marrieth another, committeth adultery against her.
12 If she herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits adultery."
And if a woman be divorced from her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked them.
And they brought to Him little children that He might touch them: and the disciples rebuked those that brought them.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me. Do not forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Which Jesus observing, was much displeased, and said to them, Let the children come to me; and hinder them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.
15 Truly I tell you, whoever will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it."
Verily I tell you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall by no means enter into it.
16 And he took them in his arms, laying his hands on them, and blessed them.
And He took them in his arms, and put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
17 As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do that I may inherit everlasting life?" (aiōnios g166)
And as he went out into the way, there came one running and kneeling to Him, and asked Him, Good master, what shall I do, that I may inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
18 Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
And Jesus said unto him, Why dost thou call me good? there is none good, but one, that is God.
19 You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery,' 'Do not murder,' 'Do not steal,' 'Do not give false testimony,' 'Do not defraud,' 'Honor your father and mother.'"
Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour thy father and thy mother.
20 And he said to him, "Teacher, I have kept all these things from my youth."
And he answered and said unto Him, Master, all these have I kept from my youth.
21 Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross."
Then Jesus looked upon him with affection, and said to him, One thing thou wantest; go, sell all that thou hast, and give it to the poor; and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross and follow me.
22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
But he was sad at that saying, and went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.
23 Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God."
And Jesus looking round about saith to his disciples, How difficultly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God.
And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus repeating it, saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them, that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich person to enter into the Kingdom of God."
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, "Then who can be saved?"
And they were exceedingly amazed, saying one to another, Who then can be saved?
27 Jesus, looking at them, said, "With humans it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God."
But Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.
28 Peter began to tell him, "Look, we have left everything, and have followed you."
Then Peter said to Him, Behold we have left all, and followed thee.
29 Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,
And Jesus answered and said, Verily I tell you, there is no one that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children,
31 But many who are first will be last; and the last first."
But many that are first shall be last, and the last first.
32 They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.
And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed at it, and afraid to follow Him. And again taking the twelve aside, He began to tell them what things should befal Him,
33 "Look, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to foreigners.
saying, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and the scribes, and they will condemn Him to death, and deliver Him to the Gentiles;
34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. After three days he will rise again."
and they will insult Him, and scourge Him, and spit upon Him, and put Him to death: but on the third day He shall rise again.
35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, and said to him, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask."
Then come to Him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, Master, we desire that thou wouldest do for us what we shall request:
36 He said to them, "What do you want me to do for you?"
and He said to them, What do ye desire me to do for you?
37 They said to him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory."
they said unto Him, Grant that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy glory.
38 But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"
But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink of the cup, that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
39 And they said to him, "We are able." And Jesus said to them, "You will drink the cup I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
And they said, We can. And Jesus said unto them, The cup indeed which I drink, ye shall drink of; and with the baptism, that I am baptized with, shall ye be baptized:
40 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared."
but to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, but for whom it is prepared.
41 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant towards James and John.
And when the other ten heard it, they were provoked at James and John.
42 Jesus summoned them, and said to them, "You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
But Jesus called them to Him, and said unto them, Ye know that those who rule among the Gentiles, lord it over them, and their grandees exercise authority upon them.
43 But it will not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.
But it shall not be so among you: but whoever would be great among you shall be your minister;
44 And whoever wants to be first among you must be slave of all.
and whoever of you would be first shall be servant of all.
45 For the Son of Man also did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
For the Son of man came not to be ministred unto, but to minister and to give his life a ransom for many.
46 They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
And they came to Jericho: and as He was going out of Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, sat by the way-side begging.
47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me."
And hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
48 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he shouted all the louder, "Son of David, have mercy on me."
And many rebuked him, that he might hold his peace: but he cried out so much the more, Thou son of David, have pity on me.
49 Jesus stood still, and said, "Call him." They called the blind man, saying to him, "Cheer up. Get up. He is calling you."
And Jesus stopt, and ordered him to be called: so they called the blind man, and said to him, Be of good courage, rise up, He calleth thee.
50 He, casting away his coat, jumped up, and came to Jesus.
And he threw off his outer garment, and arose, and came to Jesus.
51 Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said to him, "Rabboni, that I may see again."
And Jesus said to him, What dost thou desire that I should do for thee? And the blind man said to Him, Lord, that I may recover my sight.
52 Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight, and followed him on the road.
And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way, thy faith has cured thee. And he immediately recovered his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
