Mark 10
1 Jesus then rose from there and went to the region of Judea, traveling through the region beyond the Jordan, and crowds gathered around him again. And again he taught them, as he was accustomed to do.
And having risen from there, He comes to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again multitudes come together to Him, and as He had been accustomed, again He was teaching them.
2 Then some Pharisees came up to Jesus and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned Him if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting Him,
3 He answered them, “What did Moses command you?”
and He answering said to them, “What did Moses command you?”
4 They said, “Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of divorce and send her away.”
And they said, “Moses permitted to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.”
5 But Jesus answered them, “Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.
And Jesus answering said to them, “For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,
6 But from the beginning of creation, God ‘made them male and female.’
but from the beginning of the creation God made them a male and a female;
7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,
on this account will a man leave his father and mother, and will cleave to his wife,
8 and the two will become one flesh.’ So then, they are no longer two, but one flesh.
and they will be—the two—for one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh;
9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
what God therefore joined together, do not let man separate.”
10 When they were back in the house, Jesus' disciples asked him about the same subject.
And in the house His disciples again questioned Him of the same thing,
11 So he said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.
and He says to them, “Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, commits adultery against her;
12 And if a woman divorces her husband and gets married to another, she commits adultery.”
and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she commits adultery.”
13 Now people were bringing children to Jesus so that he might touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.
And they were bringing to Him children that He might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,
14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the little children come to me; do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and He said to them, “Permit the children to come to Me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the Kingdom of God;
15 Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will certainly not enter it.”
truly I say to you, whoever may not receive the Kingdom of God as a child—he may not enter into it”;
16 And taking the children in his arms, he laid his hands on them and blessed them.
and having taken them in His arms, having put [His] hands on them, He was blessing them.
17 As he was setting out on the road, a man ran up, knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
And as He is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to Him, was questioning Him, “Good Teacher, what may I do that I may inherit continuous life?” (aiōnios g166)
18 Jesus said to him, “Why do yoʋ call me good? No one is good except God alone.
And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one [is] good except one—God;
19 Yoʋ know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not give false testimony, Do not defraud, Honor yoʋr father and mother.’”
you have known the commands: You may not commit adultery, You may not murder, You may not steal, You may not bear false witness, You may not defraud, Honor your father and mother.”
20 The man answered him, “Teacher, I have kept all these commandments from the time I was a young boy.”
And he answering said to Him, “Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth.”
21 As Jesus looked at him, he felt love for the man and said to him, “One thing yoʋ lack: Go and sell all that yoʋ have and give to the poor, and yoʋ will have treasure in heaven. Then take up yoʋr cross and come follow me.”
And Jesus having looked on him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: go away, whatever you have—sell, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come, follow Me, having taken up the cross.”
22 But the man was dejected by what Jesus said and went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions.
And he—gloomy at the word—went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.
23 Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it will be for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!”
And Jesus having looked around, says to His disciples, “How hardly will they who have riches enter into the Kingdom of God!”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how difficult it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!
And the disciples were astonished at His words, and Jesus again answering says to them, “Children, how hard it is to those trusting on riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”
It is easier for a camel to enter through the eye of the needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”
26 They were completely astonished at this and said to one another, “Who then can be saved?”
And they were astonished beyond measure, saying to themselves, “And who is able to be saved?”
27 Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”
And Jesus, having looked on them, says, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.”
28 Peter began to say to him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed yoʋ.”
And Peter began to say to Him, “Behold, we left all, and we followed You.”
29 Jesus answered, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house, brothers, sisters, father, mother, wife, children, or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the gospel,
And Jesus answering said, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for My sake, and for the good news’,
31 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.”
and many first will be last, and the last first.”
32 Now they were on the road going up to Jerusalem. Jesus was walking ahead of them, and they were amazed. But as they followed they became afraid. Again he took the twelve aside and began to tell them what was going to happen to him:
And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the Twelve, He began to tell them the things about to happen to Him:
33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn him to death and hand him over to the Gentiles.
“Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they will condemn Him to death, and will deliver Him to the nations,
34 They will mock him, flog him, spit on him, and kill him. But on the third day he will rise again.”
and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him, and the third day He will rise again.”
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him and said, “Teacher, we want yoʋ to do for us whatever we ask.”
And there come near to Him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, “Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, You may do for us”;
36 So he said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
and He said to them, “What do you wish Me to do for you?”
37 They said to him, “Grant that one of us may sit on yoʋr right and the other on yoʋr left in yoʋr glory.”
And they said to Him, “Grant to us that, one on Your right hand and one on Your left, we may sit in Your 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, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
and Jesus said to them, “You have not known what you ask; are you able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the immersion that I am immersed with—to be immersed?”
39 They said to him, “We are able.” Then Jesus said to them, “You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with,
And they said to Him, “We are able”; and Jesus said to them, “Of the cup indeed that I drink of, you will drink, and with the immersion that I am immersed with, you will be immersed;
40 but to sit on my right and on my left is not mine to give, but is for those for whom it has been prepared.”
but to sit on My right and on My left is not Mine to give, but—to those for whom it has been prepared.”
41 When the ten heard this, they started becoming indignant with James and John.
And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,
42 So Jesus called them over and said to them, “You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them.
but Jesus having called them near, says to them, “You have known that they who are considered to rule the nations exercise lordship over them, and their great ones exercise authority on them;
43 But it shall not be so among you. Instead, whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant,
but not so will it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he will be your minister,
44 and whoever wants to be first among you must be a slave to all.
and whoever of you may will to become first, he will be servant of all;
45 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
for even the Son of Man did not come to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give His life [as] a ransom for many.”
46 Then they came to Jericho. Now as Jesus was leaving Jericho, along with his disciples and a large crowd, the blind man Bartimaeus, son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road begging.
And they come to Jericho, and as He is going forth from Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus—Bartimaeus the blind—was sitting beside the way begging,
47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!”
and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, “The Son of David—Jesus! Deal kindly with me”;
48 Many people began rebuking him, telling him to be silent, but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
and many were rebuking him that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, “Son of David, deal kindly with me.”
49 Then Jesus stopped and asked for him to be called over. So they called out to the blind man and said to him, “Take courage and get up; he is calling for yoʋ.”
And Jesus having stood, He commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, “Take courage, rise, He calls you”;
50 Throwing off his cloak, he rose and came to Jesus.
and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, came to Jesus.
51 Then Jesus said to him, “What do yoʋ want me to do for yoʋ?” The blind man said to him, “Rabboni, I want to receive my sight.”
And answering, Jesus says to him, “What do you will I may do to you?” And the blind man said to Him, “Rabboni, that I may see again”;
52 Jesus said to him, “Go; yoʋr faith has healed yoʋ.” Immediately he received his sight and began following Jesus on the road.
and Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has saved you”: and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
