Mark mark one. The beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ,

the Son of God, as it is written in Isaiah

the prophet.

Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will

prepare your way. The voice of one crying in the wilderness.

Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

John appeared baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism

of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. And all the

country of Judea and all Jerusalem were going out to

him and were being baptized by him in the river Jordan,

confessing their sins. Now, John was clothed with camel's hair

and wore leather belt around his waist, and ate locusts

and wild honey.

And he preached, saying, after me comes he who is

mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am

not worthy to stoop down and untie.

I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize

you with the Holy Spirit.

In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and

was baptized by John in the Jordan. And when he

came up out of the water, immediately he saw the

heavens being torn open, and the spirit descending on him

like a dove, and a voice came from heaven. You

are my beloved son.

With you, I am well pleased.

The spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. And

he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan.

And he was with the wild animals, and the angels

were ministering to him. Now, after John was arrested, Jesus

came into Galilee, proclaiming the Gospel of God and saying.

The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is

at hand, and believe in the Gospel.

Passing alongside the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew,

the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea,

for they were fishermen, and Jesus said.

To them, follow me, and I will make you become

fishers of men.

And immediately they left their nets and followed him. And

going on a little farther, he saw James, the son

of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their

boat mending the nets. And immediately he called them, and

they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the

hired servants, and followed him, and they went into Capernaum,

and immediately on the Sabbath he entered the synagogue and

was teaching. And they were astonished at his teaching, for

he taught them as one who had authority, and not

as the scribes. And immediately there was in their synagogue

a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,

what have.

You to do with us, Jesus, have you come to

descloy us? I know who you are, the Holy One

of God.

But Jesus rebuked him, saying.

Be silent and come out of him.

And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with

a loud voice, came out of him. And they were

all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, what is.

This a new teaching with authority?

He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.

And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the

surrounding region of Galilee. And immediately he left the synagogue

and entered the house of Simon and Andrew with James

and John. Now Simon's mother in law lay ill with

a fever, and immediately they told him about her, and

he came and took her by the hand and lifted

her up, and the fever left her, and she began

to serve them. That evening at sundown, they brought to

him all who were sick or oppressed by demons, and

the whole city was gathered together at the door, and

he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and

cast out many demons. And he would not permit the

demons to speak, because they knew him. And rising very

early in the morning, while it was still dark, he

departed and went out to a desolate place, and there

he prayed. And Simon and those who were with him

searched for him, and they found him and said.

To him, everyone is looking for you.

And he said to them, let.

Us go on to the next towns, that I may

preach there also, for that is why I came out.

And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues

and casting out demons. And a leper came to him,

imploring him, and kneeling, said to him.

If you will, you can make me clean.

Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched

him him and said to him, I will be clean,

And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean,

and Jesus sternly charged him and sent him away at once,

and said to him, see.

That you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself

to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses

commanded for a proof to them.

But he went out and began to talk freely about it,

and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no

longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places,

and people were coming to him from every quarter mark two.

And when he returned to Capernaum after some days, it

was reported that he was at home, and many were

gathered together, so that there there was no more room,

not even at the door, and he was preaching the

word to them. And they came, bringing to him a

paralytic carried by four men, And when they could not

get near him because of the crowd, they removed the

roof above him, and when they had made an opening,

they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay.

And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic.

Son, your sins are forgiven now.

Some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts, why.

Does this man speak like that, he's thluspheming.

Who can forgive sins but God alone. And immediately Jesus,

perceiving in his spirit that they thus question within themselves,

said to them.

Why do you question these things in your hearts? Which

is easier to say to the paralytic, your sins are forgiven,

or to say, rise, take up your bed and walk,

But that you may know that the son of Man

and has authority on earth to forgive sins. He said

to the paralytic, I say to you, rise, pick up

your bed, and go home.

And he rose and immediately picked up his bed and

went out before them, all so that they were all

amazed and glorified God, saying.

We never saw anything like this.

He went out again beside the sea, and all the

crowd was coming to him, and he was teaching them.

And as he passed by, he saw Levi, the son

of Alpheus, sitting at the tax booth, and.

He said to him, follow me.

And he rose and followed him. And as he reclined

at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners

were reclining with Jesus and his disciples, for there were

many who followed him, and the scribes of the Pharisees,

when they saw that he was eating with sinners and

tax collectors, said to his disciples.

Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?

And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, those

who are well have no need of a physician, but

those who are sick.

I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.

Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting, and people

came and said to him, why do John's disciples and

the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do

not fast? And Jesus said to them.

Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?

As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they

cannot fast. The days will come when the bridegroom is

taken away from them, and then they will fast in

that day. No one shows a piece of unshrunk cloth

on an old garment. If he does, the patch tears

away from it the new from the old, and a

worst tear is made. And no one puts new wine

into old wine skins. If he does, the wine will

burst the skins, and the wine is destroyed. And so skins,

but new wine is for fresh wine skins.

One sabbath he was going through the grain fields, and

as they made their way, his disciples began to pluck

heads of grain, and the Pharisees were saying to him.

Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on

the Sabbath.

And he said to them, have you never read.

What David did when he was in need and was hungry?

He and those who were with him, How he entered

the House of God in the time of Abiath or

the high priest and ate the bread of the presence,

which it is not lawful for any but the priest

to eat, and also gave it to those who were

with him.

And he said to them, the Sabbath.

Was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So

the son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.

Mark three. Again, he entered the synagogue, and a man

was there with a withered hand, And they watched Jesus

to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath,

so that they might accuse him. And he said to

the man with the withered hand, come here, And he

said to them, is it lawful.

On the sabbath to do good, or to do harm,

to save life, or to kill you.

But they were silent, and he looked around at them

with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said, to.

The man, stretch out your hand.

He stretched it out, and his hand was restored. The

Pharisees went out and immediately held counsel with the Herodians

against him, how to destroy him. Jesus withdrew with his

disciples to the sea, and a great crowd followed from

Galilee and Judea, and Jerusalem, and in Jumea, and from

beyond the Jordan, and from around Tire and Sidon. When

the great crowd heard all that he was doing, they

came to him, and he told his disciples to have

a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest

they crush him. For he had healed many, so that

all who had diseases pressed around him to touch him.

And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down

before him and cried out, and he strictly ordered them

not to make him known. And he went up on

the mountain and called to him those whom he desired,

and they came to him, and he appointed twelve whom

he also named apostles, so that they might be with him,

and he might send them out to preach and have

authority to cast out demons. He appointed the twelve Simon,

to whom he gave the name Peter, James the son

of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James, to whom

he gave the name Boenerges, that is, sons of Thunder,

Andrew and Philip, and Bart follow you, and Matthew and

Thomas and James the son of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and

Simon the Canaanean, and Judas is Scariot, who betrayed him.

Then he went home, and the crowd gathered again so

that they could not even eat. And when his family

heard it, they went out to seize him, for they

were saying he is out of his mind. And the

scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying.

He is possessed by Beelsible and by the prince of demons.

He casts out the demons, And he called them to

him and said to them in parables.

How can Satan cast out Satan. If a kingdom is

divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a

house is divided against itself, that house will not be

able to stand. And if Satan has risen up against

himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming

to an end. But no one can enter a strong

man's house and plunder his goods unless he first binds

he's the strong man, then indeed he may plunder his house. Truly,

I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the

children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter. But whoever

blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is

guilty of an eternal sin.

For they were saying, he has an unclean spirit. And

his mother and his brothers came and standing outside, they

sent to him and called him, and a crowd was

sitting around him, and they said to.

Him, your mother and your brothers are outside seeking you.

And he answered them, who are my mother and my brothers?

And looking about at those who sat around him, he said.

Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does

the will of God, he is my brother and sister

and mother.

Mark four. Again, he began to teach beside the sea,

and a very large crowd gathered about him, so that

he got into a boat and sat in it on

the sea, and the whole crowd was beside the sea

on the land, and he was teaching them many things

in parables. And in his teaching he said to.

Them, listen. A sewer went out to sew, and as

he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the

birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground,

where it did not have much soil, and immediately it

sprang up, since it had no depth of soil. And

when the sun rose, it was scorched, and since it

had no route, it withered away. Other seed fell among thorns,

and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it

yielded no grain. And other seeds fell into good soil

and produced grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold,

and sixty fold and a hundredfold.

And he said, he who has ears to hear, let

him hear. And when he was alone, those around him

with the twelve asked him about the parables.

And he said to them, to you has been given

the secret of the Kingdom of God. But for those outside,

everything is in parables, so that they may indeed see

but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand,

lest they should turn and be forgiven.

And he said to them, do you.

Not understand this parable, How then will you understand all

the parables? The sower sows the word, and these are

the ones along the path where the word is sown.

When they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the

word that is sown in them. And these are the

ones son on rocky ground, the ones who, when they

hear the word immediately receive it with joy, and they

have no root in themselves, but endure for a while.

Then when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word,

immediately they fall away. And others are the ones sown

among thorns. They are those who hear the word. But

the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches,

and the desires for other things enter in and choke

the word, and it proves unfruitful. But those that were

sown on the good soil are the ones who hear

the word and accept it and bear fruit thirtyfold and

sixtyfold and one hundredfold.

And he said to them.

Is a lamp brought in to be put under a

basket or under a bed, and not on a stand,

For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest. Nor

is anything secret except to come to light. If anyone

has ears to hear, let him hear.

And he said to them, pay.

Attention to what you hear. With the measure you use,

it will be measured to you, and still more will

be added to you. For to the one who has

more will be given, and from the one who has not,

even what he has will be taken away. And he said,

the Kingdom of God is as if a man should

scatter seed on the ground. He sleeps and rises night

and day, and the seed sprouts and grows. He knows

not how the earth produces by itself, first the blade,

then the ear, then the full grain in the air.

But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts

in the sickle, because the harvest has come. And he said,

with what can we compare the Kingdom of God, Or

what parable shall we use for it. It is like

a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown on the ground,

is the smallest of all the seeds on earth. Yet

when it is sown, it grows up and becomes larger

than all the garden plants, and puts out large branches,

so that the birds of the air can make nests

in its shade.

With many such parables. He spoke the word to them

as they were able to hear it. He did not

speak to them without a parable, but privately to his

own disciples he explained everything. On that day, when evening

had come, he said to them.

Let us go across to the other side.

And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in

the boat just as he was, and other boats were

with him, and a great windstorm arose, and the waves

were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was

already feeling. But he was in the stern, asleep on

the cushion. And they woke him and said to.

Him, teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?

And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to

the sea, peace be still, And the wind ceased, and

there was a great calm. He said to them, why

are you so afraid? Have you still no faith? And

they were filled with great fear and said to one another,

who then.

Is this that even the wind and the sea obey him?

Mark five. They came to the other side of the sea,

to the country of the garrisons, and when Jesus had

stepped out of the boat. Immediately there met him out

of the tombs, a man with an unclean spirit. He

lived among the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore,

not even with the chain, for he had often been

bound with shackles and chains. But he wrenched the chains apart,

and he broke the shackles in pieces. No one had

the strength to subdue him. Night and day among the

tombs and on the mountains, he was always crying out

and cutting himself with stones. And when he saw Jesus

from Afar, he ran and fell down before him, and

crying out with a loud voice, he said, what have.

You to do with me, Jesus, son of the most

High God?

Liet true, you, my God, did not torment me, for

he was saying to him.

Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.

And Jesus asked him, what is your name?

He replied, my name is name, oh many, And.

He begged him earnestly not to send them out of

the country. Now a great herd of pigs was feeding

there on the hillside, and they begged him, saying so

he gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out

and entered the pigs and the herd, numbering about two thousand,

rushed down the steep bank into the sea and were

drowned in the sea. The herdsmen fled and told it

in the city and in the country, and people came

to see what it was that had happened. And they

came to Jesus and saw the demon possess man, the

one who had had the legion, sitting there, clothed and

in his right mind, and they were afraid. And those

who had seen it described to them what had happened

to the demon possessed man and to the pigs, and

they began to beg Jesus to depart from their region.

As he was getting into the boat, the man who

had been possessed with demons begged him that he might

be with him, and he did not permit him, but

said to him.

Go home to your friends and tell them how much

the Lord has done for you, and how he has

had mercy on you.

And he went away and began to proclaim in the

de capitalists how much Jesus had done for him, and

everyone marveled. And when Jesus had crossed again in the

boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered about him,

and he was beside the sea. Then came one of

the rulers of the synecon j Iris by name, and

seeing him, he fell at his feet and implored him earnestly, saying,

my little daughter is at the point of death.

Come and lay your hands on him, so that she

may be made well and live.

And he went with him, and a great crowd followed

him and thronged about him. And there was a woman

who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years,

and who had suffered much under many physicians, and had

spent all that she had, and was no better, but

rather grew worse. She had heard the reports about Jesus

and came up behind him in the crowd and touched

his garment, for she said, why touchy, his garment be

made well? And immediately the flow of blood dried up,

and she felt in her body that she was healed

of her disease. And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power

had gone out from him, immediately turned up in the

crowd and said.

Who touched my garments?

And his disciples said to him, you say the crowd

pressing around you, and yet you say, who touched me,

and he looked round to see who had done it.

But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came

in fear and trembling, and fell down before him and

told him the whole truth.

And he said to her, daughter, your faith has made

you well. Go in peace and be healed of your disease.

While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's

house some who said it your daughter is dead. Why

troubled the teacher any further, But overhearing what they said,

Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue.

Do not fear, only believe.

And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter

and James, and John, the brother of James. They came

to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and

Jesus saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. And

when he had entered, he said to them.

Why are you making a commotion and weepingly? The child

is not dead, but sleeping.

And they laughed at him. But he put them all

outside and took the child's father and mother and those

who were with him, and went in where the child was.

Taking her by the hand, he.

Said to her, Talitha coomi, which means little girl, I

say to you, arise.

And immediately the girl got up and began walking, for

she was twelve years of age. And they were immediately

overcome with amazement. And he strictly charged them that no

one should know this, and told them to give her

something to eat. Mark six. He went away from there

and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him,

And on the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue,

and many who heard him were astonished, saying.

Where did this man get these things? What is the

wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done

by his hands?

Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and

brother of James, and Josephs and Judas and Simon.

And are not his sisters here with us? And they

took offense at him, and Jesus said.

To them, a prophet is not without honor except in

his hometown and among his relatives, and in his own household.

And he could do no mighty work there, except that

he laid his hands on a few sick people and

healed them. And he marveled because of their unbelief. And

he went about among the villages teaching, and he called

the twelve and began to send them out two by two,

and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. He charged

them to take nothing for their journey except to staff,

no bread, no bag, no money in their belts, but

to wear sandals and not put on two tunics. And

he said to them.

Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you depart

from there, and if any place will not receive you,

and they will not listen to you when you leave,

shake off the dust that is on your feet as

a testimony against them.

So they went out and proclaimed that people should repent,

and they cast out many demons and anointed with oil

many who were sick, and healed them. King Herod heard

of it, for Jesus' name had become known.

Some said John the Baptist has been raised from the dead.

That is why these miraculous powers aren't working him.

But others said he is a lie gene, and others

said he.

Is a prophet, like one of the prophets of all.

But when Herod heard of it, he said, John, who

might beheaded, has been raised. For it was Herod who

had sent and seized John and bound him in prison

for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, because

he had married her. For John had been saying to Herod.

It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.

And Herodias had a grudge against him and wanted to

put him to death, but she could not, for Herod

feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man,

and he kept him safe. When he heard him, he

was greatly perplexed, and yet he heard him gladly. But

an opportunity came when Herod, on his birthday, gave a

banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading

men of Galilee. For when Herodia's daughter came in and danced,

she pleased Herod and his guests. And the king said

to the girl, ask.

Me for whatever you wish, and I will give it

to you.

And he vowed to her, whatever.

You asked me, I will give you up to the

path of my kingdom.

And she went out and said to her mother for

what should I ask, and she said.

The head of John the Baptist.

And she came in immediately with haste to the king

and asked, saying, I.

Want you to give me at once the head of

John the Baptist on a platter.

And the king was exceedingly sorry, but because of his

oaths and his guests, he did not want to break

his word to her. And immediately the king sent an

executioner with orders to bring John's head. He went and

beheaded him in the prison and brought his head on

a platter and gave it to the girl, and the

girl gave it to her mother. When his disciples heard

of it, they came and took his body and laid

it in the tomb. The apostles returned to Jesus and

told him all that they had done, and talked, and

he said to them.

Come away by yourselves to a desolate place, and rest awhile.

For many were coming and going, and they had no

leisure even to eat. And they went away in the

boat to a desolate place by themselves. Now many saw

them going and recognize them, and they ran there on

foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them.

When he went ashore, he saw a great crowd, and

he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep

without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.

And when it grew late. His disciples came to him

and said, this.

Is a desolate place, and the hour is now late.

Send them away to go into the surrounding countryside and

villages and buy themselves something to eat.

But he answered them, you.

Give them something to eat.

And they said to him, shall we go and buy

two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to

them to eat? And he said to them, how many

loaves do you have? Go and see, And when they

had found out, they.

Said five and two fish.

Then he commanded them all to sit down in groups

on the green grass. So they sat down in groups,

by hundreds and by fifties, and taking the five loaves

and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and

said a blessing, and broke the loaves and gave them

to the disciples to set before the people. And he

divided the two fish among them all, and they all

ate and were satisfied. And they took up twelve baskets

full of broken pieces and of the fish, And those

who ate the loaves were five thousand men. Immediately he

made his disciples get into the boat and go before

him to the other side to Bethsaeta. While he dismissed

the crowd, and after he had taken leave of them,

he went up on the mountain to pray. And when

evening came, the boat was out on the sea and

he was alone on the land, and he saw that

they were making headway pain for the wind was against them.

And about the fourth watch of the night he came

to them walking on the sea. He meant to pass

by them, but when they saw him walking on the sea,

they thought it was a ghost and cried out. For

they all saw him and were terrified. But immediately he

spoke to them and said, take heart, it is I.

Do not be afraid.

And he got into the boat with them, and the

wind ceased, and they were utterly astounded, for they did

not understand about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.

When they had crossed over, they came to land at

Genesseret and moored to the shore, and when they got

out of the boat, the people immediately recognized him and

ran about the whole region and began to bring the

sick people on their beds to wherever they heard he was.

And wherever he came in villages, cities or countryside, they

laid the sick in the market places, and implored him

that they might touch even the fringe of his gold arment.

And as many as touched it were made well. Mark seven. Now,

when the Pharisees gathered to him with some of the

scribes who had come from Jerusalem, they saw that some

of his disciples ate with hands that were defiled, that is, unwashed.

For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat

unless they wash their hands, holding to the tradition of

the elders. And when they come from the marketplace, they

do not eat unless they wash. And there are many

other traditions that they observe, such as the washing of

cups and pots, and copper vessels, and dining couches. And

the Pharisees and the scribes asked.

Him, why do your disciples not walk according to the

tradition of the elders, but eat with defiled hands?

And he said to them.

Well, did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites? As it is

written this people honors me with their lips, but their

heart is far from me. In vain do they worship

me teaching his doctrines the commandments of men, You leave

the commandment of God and hold to the tradition of men.

And he said to them, you have a.

Fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order

to establish your tradition. For Moses said, honor your father

and your mother, and whoever reviles father or mother must

surely die. But you say, if a man tells his

father or his mother whatever you would have gained from

me is corbin that is given to God, then you

no longer permit him to do anything for his father

or mother, thus making void the word of God by

your tradition that you have handed down. And many such

things you do.

And he called the people to him again and said

to them, hear.

Me, all of you, and understand. There is nothing outside

a person that by going into him, can defile him.

But the things that come out of a person are

what defile him.

And when he had entered the house and left the people,

his disciples asked him about the parable. And he said

to them.

Then are you also without understanding? Do you not see

that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile him,

since it enters not his heart but his stomach and

is expelled.

Thus he declared all foods clean, and he said.

What comes out of a person is what defiles him.

For from within, out of the heart of man come

evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness.

All these evil things come from within, and they defile

a person.

And from there he arose and went away to the

region of Tire and Sidon. And he entered a house

and did not want anyone to know. Yet he could

not be hidden. But immediately a woman, whose little daughter

had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and

fell down at his feet. Now the woman was a gentile,

a siren Phoenician by birth, and she begged him to

cast the demon out of her daughter.

And he said to her, let the children be fed first,

for it is not right to take the children's bread

and throw it to the dogs.

But she answered him.

Yes, Lord, Yet even the dogs under the table eat

the children's crumbs.

And he said to her, for this statement, you may

go your way. The demon has left your daughter.

And she went home and found the child lying in bed,

and the demon gong. Then he returned from the region

of Tire and went through Sidon to the sea of Galilee,

in the region of the Decapitis, and they brought to

him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment,

and they begged him to lay his hand on him,

and taking him aside from the crowd privately, he put

his fingers into his ears, and after spitting, touched his tongue,

and looking up to Heaven, he sighed and said to

him Ephatha, that is.

Be opened.

And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and

he spoke plainly. And Jesus charged them to tell no one.

But the more he charged them, the more zealously they

proclaimed it. And they were astonished beyond measure, saying he has.

Done all things well. He even makes the death here

in the mute.

Speak Mark eight. In those days, when again a great

crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat, he

called his disciples to him and said to them.

I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been

with me now three days and have nothing to eat.

And if I send them away hungry to their homes,

they will faint on the way. And some of them

have come from far away.

And his disciples answered him.

How can one feed these people with bread here in

this desolate place?

And he asked them, how many loaves do you have?

They said seven, And he directed the crowd to sit

down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves,

and having given things, he broke them and gave them

to his disciples to set before the people. And they

set them before the crowd. And they had a few

small fish, and having blessed them, he said that these

also should be set before them. And they ate and

were satisfied, and they took up the broken pieces left

over seven basketsful, and there were about four thousand people,

and he sent them away, And immediately he got into

the boat with his disciples and went to the district

of Dalmanuthah. The pharisees came and began to argue with him,

seeking from him a sign from heaven to test him.

And he sighed deeply in his spirit and said.

Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say

to you, no sign will be given to this generation.

And he left them, got into the boat again and

went to the other side. Now they had forgotten to

bring bread, and they had only one loaf with them

in the boat. And he cautioned them, saying.

Watch out, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and

the leaven of Herod.

And they began discussing with one another the fact that

they had no bread, and Jesus, aware of this, said

to them.

Why are you discussing the fact that you have no bread?

Do you not yet perceive or understand? Are your hearts hardened?

Having eyes do you not see? And having ears do

you not hear? And do you not remember? When I

broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many

baskets full of broken pieces did.

You take up? They said to him twelve?

And the seven for the four thousand? How many baskets

full of broken pieces did you take up?

And they said to him seven. And he said to them.

Do you not yet understand?

And they came to beth Sayda, and some people brought

to him a blind man and begged him to touch him.

And he took the blind man by the hand and

led him out of the village. And when he had

spit on his eyes and laid his hands on him, he.

Asked him, do you see anything?

And he looked up and said, I see man.

But they looked like tre walking.

Then Jesus laid his hands on his eyes again, and

he opened his eyes. His sight was restored, and he

saw everything clearly, and he sent him to his home, saying.

Do not even enter the village.

And Jesus went on with his disciples to the villages

of Cesarea Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples.

Who do people say that I am?

And they told him John the Baptist, and others say Elijah,

and others one of the prophets.

And he asked them, but who do you say that

I am?

Peter answered him, you are the Christ. And he strictly

charged them to tell no one about him. 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 killed, and

after three days rise again. And he said this plainly,

and Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him,

But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said.

Get behind me, Satan, for you are not setting your

mind on the things of God, but on the things

of man.

And calling the crowd to him with his disciples.

He said to them, if anyone would come after me,

let him deny himself and take up his cross and

follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it.

But whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospels,

will save it. For what does it profit a man

to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? For

what can a man give in return for his soul?

For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words

in this adulterous and sinful generation of him, will the

son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in

the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

Mark nine. And he said to them.

Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here

who will not taste death until they see the Kingdom

of God after it has come with power.

And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and

James and John and led them up a high mountain

by themselves, and he was transfigured before them, and his

clothes became radiant, intensely white, as no one on earth

could bleach them. And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses,

and they were talking with Jesus. And Peter said to Jesus, Rabbi.

It is good that we are here. Let us make

three tenths.

One for you and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

For he did not know what to say, for they

were terrified, and a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice

came out of the cloud.

This is my beloved son. Listen to him.

And suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them,

but Jesus only. And as they were coming down the mountain,

he charged them to tell no one what they had

seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what this

rising from the dead might mean. And they asked him,

why do.

The scribes say that first Elijah must come?

And he said to them, Elijah does come first to

restore all things? And how is it written of the

son of Man that he should suffer many things and

be treated with contempt? But I tell you that Elijah

has come. And they did to him whatever they pleased,

as it is written of him.

And when they came to the disciples, they saw great

crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them. And immediately

all the crowd when they saw him were great amazed,

and ran up to him and greeted him.

And he asked them, what are you arguing about with them?

And someone from the crowd answered.

Him, teacher, I brought my son to you, for he

has a spirit that makes him mute, and whenever it

seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and

grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your

disciples that cast it out, and they were not able.

And he answered them, oh, faithless generation, how long am

I to be with you? How long am I to

bear with you? Bring him to me?

And they brought the boy to him, and when the

spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy and he

fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

And Jesus asked his father.

How long has this been happening to him?

And he said from childhood?

And it is often cast him into fire and into

water to destroy him. But if you can do anything,

have compassion on us and help us.

And Jesus said to him.

If you can, all things are possible for one who believes.

Immediately, the father of the child cried out and said.

I believe.

Help my unbelief, and when Jesus saw that a crowd

came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it,

you mute.

And deaf spirit, I command you come out of him

and never enter him again.

And after crying out and conversing him terribly, it came out,

and the boy was like a corpse, so that most

of them said.

He is dead.

But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up,

and he arose. And when he had entered the house,

his disciples asked him privately, why could we not cast

it out? And he said to them.

This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.

They went from there and passed through Galilee, and he

did not want any one to know, for he was

teaching his disciples, saying to them.

The son of Man is going to be delivered into

the hands of men, and they will kill him. And

when he is killed, after three days, he will rise.

But they did not understand the saying and were afraid

to ask him. And they came to Capernaium, and when

he was in the house, he asked.

Them, what were you discussing on the way.

But they kept silent, for on the way, they had

argued with one another about who was the greatest. And

he sat down and called the twelve. And he said

to them, if.

Any one would be first, he must be last of

all and servant of all.

And he took a child and put him in the

midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he

said to them.

Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me.

And whoever receives me receives not me, but him who

sent me.

John said to him, Teacher, we.

Saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we

tried to stop him because he was not following us.

But Jesus said, do not stop him, for no one

who does a mighty work in my name will be

able soon afterward to speak evil of me. For the

one who is not against.

Us is for us.

For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a

cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ,

will by no means lose his reward. Whoever causes one

of these little ones who believe in me to sin,

it would be better for him if a great millstone

were hung around his neck and he were thrown into

the sea. And if your hand causes you to sin,

cut it off. It is better for you to enter

life crippled than with two hands to go to Hell,

to the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you

to sin, cut it off. It is better for you

to enter life lame than with two feet to be

thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to sin,

tear it out. It is better for you to enter

the Kingdom of God with one eye than with two

eyes to be thrown into hell, where their worm does

not die and the fire is not quenched, for everyone

will be salted with fire. Salt is good, but if

the salt has lost its saltiness, how will you make

it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at

peace with one another?

Mark ten. And he left there and went to the

region of Judea and beyond the Jordan, and the crowds

gathered to him again and again, as was his custom.

He talked them, and Pharisees came up, and in order

to test him, asked.

Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?

He answered them, what did Moses command you?

They said, Moses allowed a man to write a certificate

of divorce and to send her away.

And Jesus said to them, because of your hardness of

heart he wrote to this commandment. But from the beginning

of creation God made them male and female. Therefore a

man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast

to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.

So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What

therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.

And in the house, the disciples asked him again about

this matter, and he said to them.

Whoever divorces his wife and marries another, commits adultery against her.

And if she divorces her husband and marries another, she

commits adultery.

And they were bringing children to him that he might

touch them, and the disciples reput them. But when Jesus

saw it, he was indictant and said to them.

Let the children come to me. Do not hinder them,

for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I

say to you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of

God like a child shall not enter it.

And he took them in his arms and blessed them,

laying his hands on them. And as he was setting

out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt

before him and asked him.

Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?

And Jesus said to him.

Why do you call me good? No one is good

except God alone. You know the commandments. Do not murder,

do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear

false witness, do not defraud. Honor your father and mother.

And he said to him, teacher, all these I have

kept from my youth. And Jesus, looking at him, loved

him and said to him.

You lack one thing, go sell all that you have

and give to the poor, and you will have treasure

in heaven, and come follow me.

Disheartened by the saying, he went away sorrowful, for he

had great possessions. And Jesus looked around and said to

his disciples.

How difficult it will be for those who have wealth

to enter the Kingdom of God.

And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus

said to them again.

Children, how difficult it is to enter the Kingdom of God.

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.

And they were exceedingly astonished, and said.

To him, then, who can be saved.

Jesus looked at them and.

Said, with man it is impossible, but not with God,

for all things are possible with God.

Peter began to say to him.

See, we have left every and followed you.

Jesus said, truly, I say to you, there is no

one who has left house or brothers, or sisters, or

mother or father, or children, or lands for my sake

and for the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold

now in this time houses and brothers and sisters, and

mothers and children, and lands with persecutions, and in the

age to come eternal life. But many who are first

will be last, and the last first.

And they were on the road going up to Jerusalem,

and Jesus was walking ahead of them, and they were amazed,

and those who followed were afraid, and taking the twelve again,

he began to tell them what was to happen to him.

Saying, see, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the

Son of Men will be delivered over to the chief

priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to

death and deliver him over to the gentiles, and they

will mock him and spit on him, and flog him

and kill him, and after three days he will rise.

And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up

to him and said to him.

Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we

ask of you.

And he said to them, what do you want me

to do for you you?

And they said to him, grant us to sit one

at your right hand and one at your left in

your glory.

Jesus said to them.

You do not know what you are asking me. Are

you able to drink the cup that I drink? Or

to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized.

And they said to him, we are able. And Jesus

said to them, the.

Cup that I drink, you will drink, and with the

baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized.

But to sit at my right hand or at my

left is not mine to grant, but it is for

those for whom it has been prepared.

And when the tin heard it, they began to be

indignant at James and John, and Jesus called them to

him and said, to them, you know that those.

Who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them,

and their great ones exercise authority over them. But it

shall not be so among you. But whoever would be

great among you must be your servant, and whoever would

be first among you must be slave of all. For

even the son of Man came not to be served,

but to serve, and to give his life as a

ransom for many.

And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving

Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimius, a

blind beggar, the son of Timeeas, was sitting by the roadside,

and when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth,

he began to cry out and say.

Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me.

And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent, but

he cried out all the more, sha.

Have mercy on me.

And Jesus stopped and said, call him. And they called

the blind man, saying to him.

Take heart, get up, he is calling you.

And throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came

to Jesus. And Jesus said to him, what do you

want me to do for you? And the blind man

said to him rabbi, let me recover my sight, and

Jesus said to him, go your way.

Your faith has made you well.

And immediately he recovered his side and followed him on

the way. Mark eleven. Now, when they drew near to Jerusalem,

to beth Fiji, and at the Mount of Olives, Jesus

sent two of his disciples and said to.

Them, go into the village in front of you, and

immediately as you enter it, you will find a cold

tide on which no one has ever sat. Untie it

and bring it. If anyone says to you, why are

you doing this, say the Lord has need of it,

and we'll send it back here immediately.

And they went away and found a colt tied at

a door outside in the street, and they untied it,

and some of those standing there said to them.

What are you doing untying the colt?

And they told them what Jesus had said, and they

let them go. And they brought the colt to Jesus

and threw their cloaks on it, and he sat on it.

And many spread their cloaks on the road, and other

spread leafy branches that they had cut from the fields.

And those who went before and those who followed were shouting.

Usa, bless it is.

The law, blesses it is the cunning kingdom of our

father David.

And he entered Jerusalem and went into the temple, and

when he had looked around at everything, as it was

already late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.

On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he

was hungry, and seeing in the distance of fig tree

and leaf, he went to see if he could find

anything on it. When he came to it, he found

nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

And he said to it, may no one ever eat

fruit from you again?

And his disciples heard it, and they came to Jerusalem.

And he entered the temple and began to drive out

those who sold and those who bought in the temple.

And he overturned the tablers of the money changers, and

the seats of those who sold pidgets. And he would

not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple. And

he was teaching them and saying to them.

Oh, is it not written my house shall be called

a house of prayer for all the nations, But you

have made it a den of robbers.

And the chief priests and the scribes heard it and

were seeking a way to destroy him, for they feared

him because all the crowd was astonished at his teaching.

And when evening came, they went out of the city.

As they passed by in the morning, they saw the

fig tree withered away to its roots. And Peter remembered

and said to him.

Rabbi, look the fig tree that you cursed has withered.

And Jesus answered them, have faith in God.

Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain

be taken up and thrown into the sea, and does

not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he

says will come to pass, it will be done for him. Therefore,

I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that

you have received it, and it will be yours. And

whenever you stand praying, forgive if you have anything against anyone,

so that your Father also, who is in heaven, may

forgive you your true passes.

And they came again to Jerusalem, and as he was

walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes

and the elders came to him, and they said to him.

By what authority are you doing these things? Or who

gave you this authority to do that?

Jesus said to them.

I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I

will tell you by what authority I do these things?

Was the baptism of John? From heaven or from man?

Answer me?

And they disgusted with one another, saying, if we say

from heaven, he will say, why then did you not

believe him?

But shall we say from man?

They were afraid of the people, for they all held

that John really was a prophet, So they answered Jesus,

we do not know. And Jesus said to.

Them, neither will I tell you by what authority I

do these things.

Mark twelve, And he began to speak to them in parables.

A man planted a vineyard and put a fence around it,

and dug a pit for the wine press, and built

a tower, and leased it to tenants, and went into

another country. When the season came, he sent a servant

to the tenants to get from them some of the

fruit of the vineyard, and they took him and beat

him and sent him away empty handed. Again, he sent

to them another servant, and they struck him on the

head and treated him shamefully. And he sent another, and

him they killed, And so with many others, some they

beat and some they killed. He had still one other,

a beloved son. Finally he sent him to them, saying,

they will respect my son. But those tenants said to

one another.

This is the heir.

Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.

And they took him and killed him and threw him

out of the vineyard. What will the owner of the

vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants and

give the vineyard to others. Have you not read this scripture?

The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

This was the Lord's doing. And it is marvelous in

our eyes.

And they were seeking to arrest him, but feared the people,

for they perceived that he had told the parable against them.

So they left him and went away. And they sent

to him some of the Pharisees and some of the

Herodians to trap him in his talk. And they came

and said to.

Him, teacher, we know that you are true and do

not care about anyone's opinion, for you are not swayed

by appearances, but truly teach the way of God.

You see it lawful to.

Pay taxes to Caesar or not.

Should we pay them?

Or should we not?

But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, why put

me to the test.

Bring me a denarius, and let me look at it.

And they brought one, and he said to them.

Whose likeness an inscription is this?

They said to him Caesar. Jesus said to them, render.

To Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God

the things that are God's.

And they marveled at him. And sadducees came to him,

who say that there is no resurrection, And they asked

him a question.

Saying, Teacher Moses wrote for us that if a man's

brother dies and leaves a wife but leaves no child,

the man must take the widow and raise up offspring

for his brother.

There were seven brothers.

The first took a wife, and when he died, left

no offspring, and the second took her and died, leaving

no offspring, and the third likewise, and the seven left

no offspring. Last of all, the woman also died in

the resurrection. When they rise again, whose wife.

Will she be?

For the seven had her as wife.

Jesus said to them, is this not the reason you

are wrong, because you know neither the scriptures nor the

power of God. For when they rise from the dead,

they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are

like angels in heaven. And as for the dead being raised,

have you not read in the Book of Moses, in

the passage about the bush, how God spoke to him, saying,

I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac,

and the.

God of Jacob.

He is not God of the dead, but of the living.

You are quite wrong.

And one of the scribes came up and heard them

disputing with one another, and, seeing that he answered them well,

asked him.

Which commandment is the most important of all.

Jesus answered, the most important is hero Israel, the Lord,

our God. The Lord is one, and you shall love

the Lord your God with all your heart and with

all your soul, and with all your mind, and with

all your strength. The second is this, you shall love

your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater

than these.

And the scribe said to him.

You are right, teacher. You have truly said that he

is one, and there is no other besides him, And

to love him with all the heart and with all

the understanding and with all the strength, and to love

one's neighbor as oneself is much more than all hole

burnt offerings and sacrifices.

And when Jesus saw that, he answered wisely.

He said to him, you are not far from the

Kingdom of God.

And after that no one dared to ask him any

more questions. And as Jesus taught in the temple, he said.

How can the scribe say that the Christ is the

son of David? David himself and the Holy Spirit declared

the Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right

hand until I put your enemies under your feet. David

himself calls him Lord, so how is he his son?

And the great throng heard him gladly, And in his

teaching he.

Said, beware of the scribes who like to walk around

in long robes and like greetings in the marketplaces, and

have the best seats in the synagogues and the places

of honor at feasts, who devour widow's houses and for

a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.

And he sat down opposite the treasury and watched the

people putting money into the offering box. Many rich people

put in large sums, and a poor widow came and

put in two small copper coins, which make a penny.

And he called his disciples to him and said.

To them, truly, I say to you, this poor widow

has put in more than all those who are contributing

to the offering box. For they all contributed out of

their abundance. But she, out of her poverty, has put

in everything she had, all she had to live.

On Mark thirteen, and as he came out of the temple,

one of his disciples said to him.

Look, teacher, what wonderful stones, and what wonderful buildings.

And Jesus said to him, do you.

See these gray buildings? There will not be left here

one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.

And as he sat on the mount of Olives opposite

the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked

him privately.

Tell us when will these things be and what will

be the.

Sign when all these things are about to be accomplished.

And Jesus began to say to them, see that no

one leads you astray.

Many will come in my name, saying I am he,

and they will lead many astray. And when you hear

of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed.

This must take place. But the end is not yet.

For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

There will be earthquakes in various places, there will be famines.

These are but the beginning of the birth pains. But

be on your guard, for they will deliver you over

to councils, and you will be beaten in synagogues, and

you will stand before governors and kings for my sake

to bear witness before them. And the Gospel must first

be proclaimed to all nations. And when they bring you

to trial and deliver you over, do not be anxious

beforehand what you are to say, but say whatever is

given you in that hour. For it is not you

who speak, but the Holy Spirit. And brother will deliver

brother over to death, and the father his child and

children will rise against parents and have them put to death.

And you will be hated by all for my namesake.

But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

But when you see the abomination of desolation standing where

he ought not to be, let the listener understand. Then

let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

Let the one who is on the housetop not go down,

nor enter his house to take anything out, and let

the one who is in the field not turn back

to take his cloak. And alas for women who are pregnant,

and for those who are nursing infants in those days,

pray that it may not happen in winter. For in

those days there will be such tribulation as has not

been from the beginning of the creation that God created

until now and never will be. And if the Lord

had not cut short the days, no human being would

be saved. But for the sake of the elect whom

he chose, he shortened the days. And then if anyone

says to you, look here is the Christ, or look

there he is, do not believe it, for false Christs

and false prophets will arise and perform signs and wonders

to lead astray, if possible, the elect. But be on guard.

I have told you all things beforehand. But in those

days after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and

the moon will not give its light, and the stars

will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the

heavens will be shaken, and then they will see the

Sun of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.

And then he will send out the angels and gather

his elect from the four winds, from the ends of

the earth to the ends of heaven. From the fig tree,

learn its lesson. As soon as its branch becomes tender

and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near.

So also, when you see these things taking place, you

know that he is near at the very gates. Truly,

I say to you, this generation will not pass away

until all these things take place. Heaven and earth will

pass away, but my words will not pass away. But

concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not

even the angels in heaven nor the sun, but only

the Father. Be on guard. Keep awake, for you do

not know when the time will come. It is like

a man going on a journey, when he leaves home

and puts his servants in charge, each with his work,

and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. Therefore, stay awake,

for you do not know when the master of the

house will come in the evening or at midnight, or

when the rooster crows, or in the morning. Lest he

comes suddenly and finds you asleep. And what I say

to you, I say to all stay awake.

Mark fourteen. It was now two days before the passover

and the feast of unloven bread, and the chief priests

and the scribes were seeking how to arrest him by

stealth and kill him, for they said.

Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar from

the people.

And while he was at Bethany, in the house of

Simon the Leper, as he was reclining at table, a

woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard,

very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it

over his head. There were some who said to themselves indignantly,

why was the oyment wasted like that?

For this oyment could have been sold for more than

three hundred DENARII am given.

To the poor. And they scolded her, But Jesus said.

Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her. She has

done a beautiful thing to me. For you always have

the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can

do good for them, but you will not always have me.

She has done what she could. She has anointed my

body beforehand, for burial. And truly, I say to you,

wherever the Gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what

she he is done will be told in memory of her.

Then Judas is Scariot, who was one of the twelve,

went to the chief priests in order to betray him

to them. And when they heard it, they were glad

and promised to give him money. And he sought an

opportunity to betray him. And on the first day of

unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the passover Lamb, his disciples

said to him.

Where will you have us go and prepare for you

to eat the Passover?

And he sent two of his disciples and said to them.

Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar

of water will meet you. Follow him, and wherever he enters,

say to the master of the house. The teacher says,

where is my guest room where I may eat the

Passover with my disciples. And he will show you a

large upper room furnished and ready there prepare for us.

And the disciples set out and went to the city

and found it just as he had told them, and

they prepared the passover. And when it was evening, he

came with the twelve. And as they were reclining at

table and eating, Jesus said.

Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me,

one who is eating with me.

They began to be sorrowful, and to say to him,

one after another, is it I? He said to them, it.

Is one of the twelve, one who is dipping bread

into the dish with me. For the Son of Man

goes as it is written of him. But woe to

that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed.

It would have been better for that man if he

had not been born.

And as they were eating, he took bread, and after

blessing it, broke it and gave it to them, and.

Said, take this is my body.

And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks,

he gave it to them, and they all drank of it.

And he said to them.

This is my blood of the Covenant, which is poured

out for many. Truly, I say to you, I will

not drink again of the fruit of the vine until

that day when I drink it new in the Kingdom

of God.

And when they had sung a hymn, they went out

to the Mount of Olives, and Jesus said.

To them, you will all fall away, for it is

written I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will

be scattered. But after I am raised up, I will

go before you to Galilee.

Peter said to him, even though they all fall away,

I will not.

And Jesus said to him, truly, I tell you this

very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny

me three times.

But he said emphatically, if I must die with you,

I will not deny you.

And they all said the same. And they went to

a place called Gathsimone, and he said to his disciples.

Sit here, will I pray?

And he took with him Peter and James and John,

and began to be greatly distressed and troubled. And he

said to them.

My soul is very sorrowful even to death. Remain here

and watch.

And going a little farther, he fell on the ground

and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might

pass from him.

And he said, Abah, Father, all things are possible for you.

Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will,

but what you will.

And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to.

Peter Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour?

Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation.

The spirit, indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words.

And again he came and found them sleeping, for their

eyes were very heavy, and they did not know what

to answer him. And he came the third time and

said to them.

Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough.

The hour has come. The son of Man is betrayed

into the hands of sinners. Rise, Let us be going.

See my betrayer is at hand.

And immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas came one

of the twelve, and with him a crowd with swords

and clubs from the chief priests and the scribes and

the elders. Now the betrayer had given them a sign saying,

the one I will kiss is the man.

Seize him and lead him away under guard.

And when he came, he went up to him at

once and said, Rabbi, And he kissed him. And they

laid hands on him and seized him. But one of

those who stood by true his sword and struck the

serpent of the high priest and cut off his ear,

and Jesus said to them, have.

You come out as against a robber with swords and

clubs to capture me? Day after day I was with

you in the temple teachings, and you did not seize me.

But let the scriptures be fulfilled.

And they all left him and fled. And a young

man followed him with nothing but a linen cloth about

his body, and they seized him, but he left the

linen cloth and ran away naked. And they led Jesus

to the High Priest, and all the chief priests and

the elders and the scribes came together. And Peter had

followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of

the High Priest, and he was sitting with the guards

and warming himself at the fire. Now the chief priests

and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus to

put him to death, but they found none, for many

bore false witness against him. But their testimony did not agree,

and some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying.

We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that

is made with hands, and in three days I will

build another not made with hands.

Yet, even about this, their testimony did not agree, and

the High Priest stood up in the midst and asked, Jesus,

have you no answer to me?

What is it that these men testify against you?

But he remained silent and made no answer. Again, the

High Priest asked him.

Are you the Christ, the son of the blessed?

And Jesus said, I am, and you will see the

son of Man seated at the right hand of power

and coming with the clouds of heaven.

And the High Priest tore his garments and said, what were.

The witnesses do WEENI?

You have heard this blasphemy?

What is your decision? And they all condemned him as

deserving death, and some began to spit on him and

to cover his face and to strike him, saying to

him propside, and the guards received him with blows. And

as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the

servid girls of the High Priest came, and, seeing Peter

warming himself, she looked at him and said, you also

were with the nazarene Jesus.

But he denied it, sane, I neither know nor understand

what you mean.

And he went out into the gateway, and the rooster crowed,

and the servant girl saw him and began again to

say to the bystanders.

This man is one of them.

But again he denied it, and after a little while

the bystanders again said to Peter, certainly you.

Are one of them, for you are a galleon.

But he began to invoke a curse on himself and

to swear.

I do not know this man of whom you speak.

And immediately the rooster crowed a second time, and Peter

remembered how Jesus had said to him before the.

Rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.

And he broke down and wept. Mark fifteen. And as

soon as it was morning, the chief priest held a

consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council,

and they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered

him over to Pilot, And Pilot asked him, are you

the king of the Jews? And he answered him, you

have said so. And the chief priests accused him of

many things, and Pilot again asked him, have.

You no answer to make? See how many charges they

bring against you?

But Jesus made no further answers, so that Pilot was amazed.

Now at the feast he used to release for them

one prisoner for whom they asked. And among the rebels

in prison who had committed murder in the insurrection, there

was a man called Barabbas. And the crowd came out

and began to ask Pilot to do as he usually

did for them, and he answered them saying, do you want.

Me to release for you the King of the Jews.

For he perceived that it was out of enemy that

the chief priest had delivered him up. But the chief

Priest stirred up the crowd to have him released for

them balls instead, And Pilot again said to them.

Then, what would I do the man you call the

King of the Jews?

And they cried out again crucify Ham. And Pilots said

to them.

Whoa, what has he done?

But they shouted all the more prosify Ham. So Pilot,

wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and

having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified, and

the soldiers led him away inside the palace that is

the governor's headquarters, and they called together the whole battalion,

and they clothed him in a purple cloak, and twisting

together a crown of Florence, they put it on him,

and they began to.

Salute him, ha ha ha, hell King of the Jews.

And they were striking his head with a reed, and

spitting on him, and kneeling down in homage to him.

And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of

the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him,

and they led him out to crucify him. And they

compelled a passer by Simon of Cireni, who was coming

in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus,

to carry his cross, and they brought him to the

place called Golgotha, which means place of a skull, and

they offered him wine mixed with mern, but he did

not take it. And they crucified him and divided his

garments among them, casting lots for them to decide what

each should take. And it was the third hour when

they crucified him, and the inscription of the charge against

him read the King of the Jews. And with him

they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one

on his left, and those who passed by delighted him,

wagging their hands in saying, ha, ha, you.

Who would descry the temple and rebuild it in three days.

Save yourself and come down from the frost.

So also the chief priest with the scribes mocked him.

To one another, saying, well, he saved others, he could

not save himself. Let the Christ, the King of Israel,

come down now from the cross that we may see

and to.

Be Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.

And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness

over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at

the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice.

Eloi, ELOI.

Love sabuku, which means.

By God, by God, what.

You for sake, And some of the bystanders hearing it, said, behold,

he is calling Elijah. And someone ran and filled a

sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed, and

gave it to him to drink, saying, ah, wait, let

us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.

And Jesus uttered a loud cry and breathed his last,

and the curtain of the temple was torn in two

from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood

facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last,

he said.

Truly this man was the son of God.

There were also women looking on from a distance, among

whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of James

the Younger, and of Joseph, and Salooni. When he was

in Galilee, they followed him and ministered to him. And

there were also many other women who came up with

him to Jerusalem. And when evening had come, since it

was the day of preparation, that is, the day before

the Sabbath, Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the

council who was also himself looking for the Kingdom of God,

took courage and went to Pilot and asked for the

body of Jesus. Pilot was surprised to hear that he

should have already died, and summoning the centurion, he asked

him whether he was already dead, And when he learned

from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the

corpse to Joseph, and Joseph bought a linen shroud, and

taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and

laid him in a tomb that had been cut out

of the rock, and he rolled a stone against the

entrance of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother

of Joseph saw where he was laid, Mark sixteen. When

the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother

of James and Salomi bought spices so that they might

go and anoint him. And very early on the first

day of the week, when the sun had risen, they

went to the tomb, and they were saying to one another,

who will.

Roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the.

Tomb, And looking up, they saw that the stone had

been rolled back. It was very large, And entering the tomb,

they saw a young man sitting on the right side,

dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed, and

he said to them, do not be alarmed.

You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified.

He has risen.

He is not here see the place where they laid him.

But go tell his decid and Peter that he is

going before you to Galilee. There you will see him

just as he told you.

And they went out and fled from the tomb for

trembling an astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing

to anyone, for they were afraid. Now when he rose

early on the first day of the week, he appeared

first to Marry Magdalene, from whom he had cast out

seven demons. She went and told those who had been

with him, as they mourned and wept. But when they

heard that he was alive and had been seen by her,

they would not believe it. After these things, he appeared

in another form to two of them as they were

walking into the country, and they went back and told

the rest, but they did not believe them. Afterward, he

appeared to the eleven themselves as they were reclining at table,

and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart,

because they had not believed those who saw him. After

he had risen, and he said to them, go into.

All the world and proclaim the Gospel to the whole creation.

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever

does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will

accompany those who believe in my name. They will cast

out demons, they will speak in new tongues, they will

pick up serpents, with their hands, and if they drink

any deadly poison, it will not hurt them. They will

lay their hands on the sick and they will recover.

So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them,

was taken up into heaven and sat down at the

right hand of God. And they went out and preached everywhere,

while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message

by accompanying signs h
