< Mark 6 >
1 And he went forth from thence, and cometh into his own city, —and his disciples follow him.
AND Jeshu went forth from thence, and came to his city; and his disciples adhered to him.
2 And, when it was Sabbath, he began to be teaching in the synagogue, and, the greater part, as they heard, were being struck with astonishment, saying—Whence hath this man these things?—and—What the wisdom which hath been given to this man?—and—Such mighty works as these, through his hands, are coming to pass!
And when it was shabath, he began to teach in the house of the congregation: and many who heard wondered, and said, Whence to him are these? and what is this wisdom which hath been given him, that miracles such as these by his hands should be done?
3 Is not, this, the carpenter? the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?—and they were finding cause of stumbling in him.
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mariam, and the brother of Jacub, and of Josi, and of Jehuda, and of Shemun? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended with him.
4 And Jesus was saying unto them—A prophet is not without honour, save in his own city and among his kinsfolk, and in his house;
And Jeshu said to them, No prophet is despised, unless in his own city, and among his kinsfolk, and in his own house.
5 and he could not, there, do so much as a single mighty work, —save, on a few sick, he laid his hands and cured them.
And he could not do there any miracle, except that upon a few sick he laid his hands, and healed them
6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages in a circuit, teaching.
And he wondered at the defectiveness of their faith. AND he itinerated through the villages, teaching.
7 And he calleth near the twelve, and began to be sending them forth two and two, —and was giving them authority over the impure spirits:
And he called his twelve, and began to send them two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits to cast them out.
8 and charged them that they should take, nothing, for a journey, save a staff only, —no bread, no satchel, no copper, for the belt;
And he instructed them to take nothing for the journey, except a staff only; not a wallet, nor bread, nor brass in their purses;
9 but having bound on light sandals, and not to put on, two tunics;
but be shod with sandals, and not to be clothed with two tunics.
10 and he was saying unto them—Wheresoever ye shall enter into a house, there, abide, until ye go forth from thence;
And he said to them, Into whatsoever house you enter, there be until you go forth from thence.
11 And, whatsoever place shall not welcome you nor hearken unto you, when ye are going forth from thence, shake off the dust that is under you feet, for a witness against them.
And every one who will not receive you, nor hear you, when you are going out from thence, beat off the dust that is beneath your feet for their testimony. And Amen I say to you, That it shall be more tolerable for Sadum and for Amura in the day of the judgment, than for that city.
12 And they went forth and made proclamation, in order that men should repent;
And they went forth, and preached that they should repent.
13 and, many demons, were they casting out, —and were anointing with oil, many sick, and were curing them.
And many devils they cast out, and anointed with oil the sick, and healed many.
14 And King Herod heard, —for, famous, had become his name; and he was saying—John the Immerser hath arisen from among the dead, and, for this cause, are the powers working mightily in him;
AND Herodes the king heard concerning Jeshu, for his name had become known; and he said, Juchanon the Baptizer hath risen from among the dead; therefore works of power are wrought by him.
15 But, others, were saying—It is Elijah, and, others were saying—A prophet, like one of the prophets!
Others said, He is Elia; and others, A prophet as one from the prophets.
16 But, when Herod heard, he was saying—He whom I beheaded—John, the same, hath been raised.
But when Herodes heard, he said, It is Juchanon whom I beheaded; he hath risen from among the dead.
17 For, Herod himself, had sent and secured John and bound him in prison, for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, —for, her, had he married,
For Herodes had sent and had taken Juchanon, and had cast him into the house of the bound, on account of Herodia, wife of Philipos his brother, whom he had taken.
18 For John had been saying to Herod—It is not allowed thee, to have, the wife of thy brother.
For Juchanon had said to Herodes, It is not lawful to thee to take the wife of thy brother.
19 And, Herodias, was cherishing [a grudge] against him, and wishing, to slay him, —and could not;
But Herodia herself was adverse to him, and wished to kill him, but she could not.
20 for, Herod, stood in fear of John, knowing him to be a man righteous and holy, —and was keeping him safe; and, when he heard him, he paid earnest heed, and, with pleasure, used to listen to him.
For Herodes feared Juchanon, because he knew that he was a man righteous and holy, and he protected him, and was many (times) hearing him, doing, and hearing him favourably.
21 And, an opportune day arriving, when Herod on his birthday made a feast for his nobles, and for the rulers of thousands and for the first men of Galilee,
And there was a notable day when Herodes, in the house of his nativity, (b'beth yaldeh, ) made a feast to his chiefs and kiliarchs and the heads of Galila;
22 when the daughter of this very Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those reclining together, and, the king, said unto the damsel—Ask me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee;
and the daughter of Herodia came in (and) danced; and she pleased Herodes and them who reclined with him. And the king said to the damsel, Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will give to thee.
23 and he took an oath to her—Whatsoever thou shalt ask me, I will give thee, unto half my kingdom.
And he sware to her, Whatever thou shalt ask (of) me, I will give thee, unto the dividing of my kingdom.
24 And, going out, she said unto her mother—What shall I ask? and she said—The head of John the Immerser;
Then went she out and said to her mother, What shall I ask of him? She saith to her, The head of Juchanon the Baptizer.
25 And, coming in straightway, with hast, unto the king, she asked, saying—I desire, that, forthwith, thou give me, upon a charger, the head of John the Immerser.
And immediately she entered with solicitude unto the king, and saith to him, I will this hour that thou give me, upon a dish, the head of Juchanon the Baptizer.
26 And, though the king was, very grieved, yet, by reason of the oaths, and of them who were reclining, he would not refuse her.
And greatly grieved was the king; but, for the sake of the oath, and the sake of the guests, he could not deprive her.
27 And the king, straightway, sending off a guard, gave orders to bring his head.
But the king despatched at once a sentinel, and commanded that he should bring the head of Juchanon. And he went and cut off the head of Juchanon in the house of the bound,
28 And, departing, he beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a charger, and gave it unto the damsel—and, the damsel, gave it unto her mother.
and brought (it) in a dish and gave to the damsel, and the damsel herself gave to her mother.
29 And, hearing of it, his disciples went and took away his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
And his disciples heard and went, took up his corpse, and laid it in the place of the buried.
30 And the apostles gather themselves together unto Jesus, and reported unto him all things, as many as they had done, and as many as they had taught.
AND the disciples gathered unto Jeshu, and told him all whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
31 And he saith unto them—Come, ye yourselves, apart, into a desert place, and rest yourselves a little. For they who were coming and they who were going were many, and, not even to eat, were they finding fitting opportunity.
And he said to them, Come and let us go into the desert alone, and rest a little while; for there were multitudes going and coming, (so that) they had not space even to eat;
32 And they departed, in the boat, into a desert place, apart.
and they went to a wilderness district in a vessel by themselves.
33 And many saw them going away, and took note of it, and, afoot, from all the cities, ran they together thither, —and outwent them.
And many saw them as they went, and knew them; and into the waste ran they from all the cities, and were there before him.
34 And, coming forth, he saw, a great multitude, and was moved with compassion towards them, because they were like sheep having no shepherd, and he began to be teaching them many things.
And Jeshu coming forth beheld the great assemblies, and had compassion upon them, they being like sheep which had no shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
35 And, already, a late hour, having arrived, his disciples came unto him and were saying, A desert, is the place, and it is, already, a late hour:
And when much time had passed, the disciples came to him and said to him, This place is waste, and the time is great;
36 dismiss them, that, departing into the surrounding hamlets and villages, they may buy themselves something to eat.
send them away to go to the farms around us and into the villages, and buy for themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.
37 But, he, answering said to them—Ye, give them, to eat. And they say unto him—Shall we depart and buy two hundred denaries’ worth of loaves, and give them to eat?
But he said to them, Give you them to eat. They said to him, Shall we go and buy bread for two hundred dinoreen, and give them to eat?
38 And, he, saith unto them—How many loaves, have ye? Go, see! And, getting to know, they say—Five, and, two fishes.
But he said, Go see how many loaves you have here; and when they had seen, they said to him, Five loaves and two fishes.
39 And he gave them orders, that all should be made recline, in parties, upon, the green grass.
And he directed that they should make them all recline in companies upon the herbage;
40 And they fell back, in companies, by hundreds and by fifties.
and they reclined in companies, by hundreds and by fifties.
41 And, taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up into heaven, he blessed, and brake up the loaves, and began giving unto the disciples, that they might set before them, and, the two fishes, divided he, unto all.
And he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the bread, and gave to his disciples to set before them: and those two fishes they divided among them all,
42 And they did all eat, and were filled.
and they all did eat and were satisfied.
43 And they took up broken pieces, twelve baskets, full measure, and from the fishes.
And they took up the broken pieces, twelve baskets full, and from the fishes.
44 And they who did eat the loaves were, five thousand men.
Now they who had eaten bread were five thousand men.
45 And, straightway, constrained he his disciples to enter into the boat, and be going forward to the other side, unto Bethsaida, —while, he, was dismissing the multitude.
And immediately he constrained his disciples to ascend into the bark, and to go before him across to Beth-tsaida, while he dismissed the assemblies;
46 And, bidding them farewell, he departed into the mountain to pray.
and when he had sent them away, he went to a mountain to pray.
47 And, when, evening, came, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and, he alone, on the land.
BUT when it was eventide, the bark was in the midst of the sea, and himself alone upon the land.
48 And, seeing them distressed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night, he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, —and was wishing to pass by them.
And he saw them that they were distressed with rowing; for the wind was against them. And in the fourth watch of the night Jeshu came to them walking upon the waters, (as though) he willed to pass by them:
49 But, they, seeing him, upon the sea, walking, supposed that it was an apparition, and cried out aloud;
but they beheld him walking upon the waters, and thought it was a spectre, and they cried out;
50 for, all, saw him, and were troubled. But, he, straightway, talked with them, and saith unto them—Take courage! it is, I—be not afraid!
for all saw him and were afraid. But he immediately spoke to them and said to them, Take heart, I am, fear not.
51 And he went up unto them, into the boat, —and the wind lulled. And, exceedingly, within themselves, were they astonished;
And he ascended to them into the ship, and the wind was still: and they wondered greatly, and were astonished among themselves.
52 for they understood not by the loaves, —but their, heart, had been, hardened.
For they understood not from that bread, because their heart was gross.
53 And crossing over unto the land, they came unto Gennesaret, and cast anchor near.
And when they had crossed over, they came to the land of Genesar.
54 And, when they had, come forth, out of the boat, straightway, recognizing him,
And when they had gone forth from the bark, the men of the place at once recognised him.
55 the people ran round the whole of that country, and began to be carrying round, upon couches, them who were sick, wherever they heard that he was.
And they ran throughout all that land, and began to bring those who were greatly afflicted, bearing them on couchettes, to where they heard that he was.
56 And, wheresoever he was entering into villages, or into cities, or into hamlets, in the marketplaces, laid they the sick, and were beseeching him, that, only the fringe of his mantle, they might touch, and, as many soever as touched it, were being made well.
And wherever he entered, into villages and cities, they placed the sick in the streets, and besought from him that they might touch only the edge of his mantle; and all they who touched him were healed.
