Mark 1
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God;

2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.

9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth to Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan.

16 Now as he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
And passing along by the Lake of Galil, he saw Shim'on and Andrew the brother of Shim'on casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
17 And Jesus said to them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
And Yeshua said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
18 And immediately they forsook their nets, and followed him.
And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
19 And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.
And going on a little further, he saw Jacob the son of Zavdai, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.

24 Saying, Let [us] alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
saying, "What do we have to do with you, Yeshua of Natzeret? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
And Yeshua rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth [his] hand, and touched him, and saith to him, I will; be thou clean.
