< Mark 8 >
1 In those days, there being again a great multitude, and they having nothing to eat, he called the disciples to him, and saith to them,
In those days, there being, again a large multitude, and they not having any thing to eat, calling near the disciples, he saith unto them—
2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have remained with me now three days, and they have nothing to eat.
I am moved with compassion towards the multitude, because, already three days, abide they with me, and they have nothing to eat;
3 And if I send them away fasting to their houses, they will faint on the road; and some of them have come from altar.
and, if dismiss them fasting unto their home, they will be exhausted in the way, —and, certain of them, are, from afar.
4 And his disciples answered him, Whence can ally one satisfy these men with bread here in a wilderness?
And his disciples answered him—Whence shall any one be able, here, to fill, these, with bread, in a desert?
5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
And he was questioning them—How many loaves have ye? and they said—Seven.
6 And he ordered the multitude to lie down on the ground; and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and broke, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they set them before the multitude.
And he sendeth word to the multitude, to fall back upon the ground. And, taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he brake, and was giving unto his disciples, that they might be setting before them; and they set before the multitude.
7 And they had a few small fishes; and having blessed them, he set them before them.
And they had a few small fishes; and, blessing them, he bade them set, these also, before them.
8 And they ate, and were filled; and they took up of the fragments that remained, seven baskets.
And they did eat, and were filled, and took up remainders of broken pieces, seven hampers.
9 And they were about four thousand; and he sent them away.
Now they were about four thousand; and he dismissed them.
10 And immediately going on board the boat with his disciples, he came into the region of Dalmanutha.
And, straightway, entering into the boat with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha;
11 And the Pharisees came out, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, trying him.
and forth came the Pharisees, and began discussing with him, seeking of him, a sign from the heaven, testing him.
12 And sighing deeply in his spirit, he saith, Why doth this generation seek for a sign? Truly do I say to you, A sign will not he given to this generation.
And, deeply sighing in his spirit, he saith—Why, doth this generation seek, a sign? Verily, I say—there shall, not be given, to this generation, a sign.
13 And leaving them, he again went on board and crossed to the other side.
And leaving them, again, embarking, he departed unto the other side.
14 And they had forgotten to take bread, and had not in the boat with them more than one loaf.
And they forgot to take loaves, and, save one loaf, they had nothing with them in the boat.
15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and the leaven of Herod.
And he began charging them, saying—Mind! beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod!
16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.
And they began deliberating one with another, because they had no loaves.
17 And knowing it, he saith to them, Why are ye reasoning, because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet perceive nor understand? Have ye your mind still blinded?
And, taking note, he saith unto them—Why do ye deliberate, because ye have no, loaves? Not yet perceive ye, neither understand, —keep ye your hearts, hardened?
18 Having eyes, do ye not see? and having ears, do ye not hear? And do ye not remember,
Eyes having, see ye not? and ears having, hear ye not? and remember ye not
19 when I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, and how many baskets full of fragments ye took up? They say to him, Twelve.
when, the five loaves, I brake unto the five thousand, how many baskets, full of broken pieces, ye took up? They say unto him—Twelve, —
20 When also the seven among the four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did ye take up? And they say, Seven.
When the seven, unto the four thousand, how many hampers, full measure, of broken pieces, ye took up? And they say unto him—Seven. And he was saying unto them—
21 And he said to them, Do ye not yet understand?
Not yet, do ye understand?
22 And they come to Bethsaida. And they bring to him a blind man, and beseech him to touch him.
And they come into Bethsaida. And they bring unto him one blind, and beseech him that him, he would touch.
23 And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him out of the village; and spitting on his eyes, and putting his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
And, laying hold of the hand of the blind man, he brought him forth outside the village, and, spitting into his eyes, laying his hands upon him, he was asking him—Anything, seest thou?
24 And he looked up, and said, I can see men, for I see them as trees, walking.
and, looking up, he was saying—I see men, because, like trees, I behold them walking
25 Then he again put his hands on his eyes, and he saw clearly, and was restored, and saw all things distinctly.
Then again, put he his hands upon his eyes, and he saw clearly, and was restored, and was seeing distinctly, in broad splendour, all things together.
26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Go not into the village.
And he sent him away unto his house, saying—Not even into the village, mayest thou enter.
27 And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?
And forth went Jesus and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea of Philip. And, in the way, he was questioning his disciples, saying unto them—Who, are men saying that I am?
28 And they answered him, saying, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, One of the prophets.
And they answered him, saying—John the Immerser, and, others, Elijah, —and, others, One of the prophets.
29 And he asked them, But who do ye say that I am? Peter answering saith to him, Thou art the Christ.
And, he, went on to question them—But, who, say, ye, that I am? Peter, answering, saith unto him—Thou, art, the Christ.
30 And he strictly charged them to tell no one concerning him.
And he straitly charged them, that, no one, they should tell concerning him.
31 And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days rise again;
And he began to be teaching them—The Son of Man, must needs suffer many things, and be rejected by the Elders and the High-priests and the Scribes, —and be slain; and, after three days, arise.
32 and he told them this plainly. And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him.
And, openly, was he speaking the word. And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him.
33 But he turning about and looking at his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith, Get thee behind me, Satan! for thy thoughts are not on the things of God, but on those of men.
But, he, turning round and looking upon his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith—Withdraw behind me, Satan! because thou art not regarding the things, of God, but the things, of men.
34 And calling the multitude to him with his disciples also, he said to them, Whoever chooseth to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
And, calling near the multitude with his disciples, he said unto them—If anyone willeth, after me, to come, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and be following me.
35 For whoever chooseth to save his life, will lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for the sake of me and of the glad tidings, will save it.
For, whosoever willeth, his own life, to save, shall lose it, but, whosoever shall lose his life for the sake [of me and] of the glad-message, shall save it;
36 For what doth it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?
For, what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and be made to forfeit his life?
37 For what can a man give as an exchange for his life?
For what can a man, give, in exchange for his life?
38 For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will also the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
For, whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also, will be ashamed, of him, whensoever he shall come, in the glory of his Father, with the holy messengers.
