< Marcum 1 >
1 Initium Evangelii Iesu Christi, Filii Dei.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
2 Sicut scriptum est in Isaia propheta: Ecce ego mitto angelum meum ante faciem tuam, qui praeparabit viam tuam ante te.
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 Vox clamantis in deserto: Parate viam Domini, rectas facite semitas eius.
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
4 Fuit Ioannes in deserto baptizans, et praedicans baptismum poenitentiae in remissionem peccatorum.
John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 Et egrediebatur ad eum omnis Iudaeae regio, et Ierosolymitae universi, et baptizabantur ab illo in Iordanis flumine, confitentes peccata sua.
And there went out unto him all the land of Judæa, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Et erat Ioannes vestitus pilis camelorum, et zona pellicea circa lumbos eius, et locustas, et mel silvestre edebat.
And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
7 Et praedicabat dicens: veniet fortior post me: cuius non sum dignus procumbens solvere corrigiam calceamentorum eius.
And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
8 Ego baptizavi vos aqua, ille vero baptizabit vos Spiritu sancto.
I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
9 Et factum est: in diebus illis venit Iesus a Nazareth Galileae: et baptizatus est a Ioanne in Iordane.
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
10 Et statim ascendens de aqua, vidit caelos apertos, et Spiritum Sanctum tamquam columbam descendentem, et manentem in ipso.
And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
11 Et vox facta est de caelis: Tu es Filius meus dilectus, in te complacui.
And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 Et statim Spiritus expulit eum in desertum.
And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
13 Et erat in deserto quadraginta diebus, et quadraginta noctibus: et tentabatur a satana: eratque cum bestiis, et angeli ministrabant illi.
And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
14 Postquam autem traditus est Ioannes, venit Iesus in Galilaeam, praedicans Evangelium regni Dei,
Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 et dicens: Quoniam impletum est tempus, et appropinquavit regnum Dei: poenitemini, et credite Evangelio.
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
16 Et praeteriens secus Mare Galilaeae, vidit Simonem, et Andream fratrem eius, mittentes retia in mare, (erant enim piscatores)
Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
17 et dixit eis Iesus: Venite post me, et faciam vos fieri piscatores hominum.
And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
18 Et protinus relictis retibus, secuti sunt eum.
And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.
19 Et progressus inde pusillum, vidit Iacobum Zebedaei, et Ioannem fratrem eius, et ipsos componentes retia in navi:
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 ship mending their nets.
20 et statim vocavit illos. Et relicto patre suo Zebedaeo in navi cum mercenariis, secuti sunt eum.
And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Et ingrediuntur Capharnaum: et statim sabbatis ingressus in synagogam, docebat eos.
And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
22 Et stupebant super doctrina eius: erat enim docens eos, quasi potestatem habens, et non sicut Scribae.
And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Et erat in synagoga eorum homo in spiritu immundo: et exclamavit,
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 dicens: Quid nobis, et tibi Iesu Nazarene: venisti ante tempus perdere nos? scio quod sis, Sanctus Dei.
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.
25 Et comminatus est ei Iesus, dicens: Obmutesce, et exi de homine.
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26 Et discerpens eum spiritus immundus, et exclamans voce magna exiit ab eo.
And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
27 Et mirati sunt omnes, ita ut conquirerent inter se dicentes: Quidnam est hoc? quaenam doctrina haec nova? quia in potestate etiam spiritibus immundis imperat, et obediunt ei.
And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine [is] this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
28 Et processit rumor eius statim in omnem regionem Galilaeae.
And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
29 Et protinus egredientes de synagoga, venerunt in domum Simonis, et Andreae cum Iacobo, et Ioanne.
And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Decumbebat autem socrus Simonis febricitans: et statim dicunt ei de illa.
But Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.
31 Et accedens elevavit eam, apprehensa manu eius: et continuo dimisit eam febris, et ministrabat eis.
And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
32 Vespere autem facto cum occidisset sol, afferebant ad eum omnes male habentes, et daemonia habentes:
And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
33 et erat omnis civitas congregata ad ianuam.
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 Et curavit multos, qui vexabantur variis languoribus, et daemonia multa eiiciebat, et non sinebat ea loqui, quoniam sciebant eum.
And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
35 Et diluculo valde surgens, egressus abiit in desertum locum, ibique orabat.
And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
36 Et prosecutus est eum Simon, et qui cum illo erant.
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
37 Et cum invenissent eum, dixerunt ei: Quia omnes quaerunt te.
And when they had found him, they said unto him, All [men] seek for thee.
38 Et ait illis: Eamus in proximos vicos, et civitates, ut et ibi praedicem: ad hoc enim veni.
And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
39 Et erat praedicans in synagogis eorum, et in omni Galilaea, et daemonia eiiciens.
And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
40 Et venit ad eum leprosus deprecans eum: et genu flexo dicit ei: Si vis, potes me mundare.
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41 Iesus autem misertus eius, extendit manum suam: et tangens eum, ait illi: Volo: Mundare.
And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth [his] hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.
42 Et cum dixisset, statim discessit ab eo lepra, et mundatus est.
And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Et comminatus est ei, statimque eiecit illum:
And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
44 et dicit ei: Vide nemini dixeris: sed vade, ostende te principi sacerdotum, et offer pro emundatione tua, quae praecepit Moyses in testimonium illis.
And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45 At ille egressus coepit praedicare, et diffamare sermonem, ita ut iam non posset manifeste introire in civitatem, sed foris in desertis locis esset, et conveniebant ad eum undique.
But he went out, and began to publish [it] much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
