Mark

7 Mark

7.1

And there are gathered together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, who had come from Jerusalem,

7.2

and had seen that some of his disciples ate their bread with defiled, that is, unwashen, hands.

7.3

(For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands diligently, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders;

7.4

and `when they come' from the market-place, except they bathe themselves, they eat not; and many other things there are, which they have received to hold, washings of cups, and pots, and brasen vessels.)

7.5

And the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with defiled hands?

7.6

And he said unto them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoreth me with their lips, But their heart is far from me.

7.7

But in vain do they worship me, Teaching `as their' doctrines the precepts of men.

7.8

Ye leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.

7.9

And he said unto them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition.

7.10

For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother; and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die the death:

7.11

but ye say, If a man shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is Corban, that is to say, Given `to God';

7.12

ye no longer suffer him to do aught for his father or his mother;

7.13

making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.

7.14

And he called to him the multitude again, and said unto them, Hear me all of you, and understand:

7.15

there is nothing from without the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.

7.16

`If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.'

7.17

And when he was entered into the house from the multitude, his disciples asked of him the parable.

7.18

And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Perceive ye not, that whatsoever from without goeth into the man, `it' cannot defile him;

7.19

because it goeth not into his heart, but into his belly, and goeth out into the draught? `This he said', making all meats clean.

7.20

And he said, That which proceedeth out of the man, that defileth the man.

7.21

For from within, out of the heart of men, evil thoughts proceed, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries,

7.22

covetings, wickednesses, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, railing, pride, foolishness:

7.23

all these evil things proceed from within, and defile the man.

7.24

And from thence he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered into a house, and would have no man know it; and he could not be hid.

7.25

But straightway a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet.

7.26

Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. And she besought him that he would cast forth the demon out of her daughter.

7.27

And he said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs.

7.28

But she answered and saith unto him, Yea, Lord; even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

7.29

And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the demon is gone out of thy daughter.

7.30

And she went away unto her house, and found the child laid upon the bed, and the demon gone out.

7.31

And again he went out from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.

7.32

And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to lay his hand upon him.

7.33

And he took him aside from the multitude privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue;

7.34

and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

7.35

And his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.

7.36

And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it.

7.37

And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh even the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

8 Mark

8.1

In those days, when there was again a great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them,

8.2

I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat:

8.3

and if I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way; and some of them are come from far.

8.4

And his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able to fill these men with bread here in a desert place?

8.5

And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

8.6

And he commandeth the multitude to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and having given thanks, he brake, and gave to his disciples, to set before them; and they set them before the multitude.

8.7

And they had a few small fishes: and having blessed them, he commanded to set these also before them.

8.8

And they ate, and were filled: and they took up, of broken pieces that remained over, seven baskets.

8.9

And they were about four thousand: and he sent them away.

8.10

And straightway he entered into the boat with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

8.11

And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, trying him.

8.12

And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.

8.13

And he left them, and again entering into `the boat' departed to the other side.

8.14

And they forgot to take bread; and they had not in the boat with them more than one loaf.

8.15

And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.

8.16

And they reasoned one with another, saying, We have no bread.

8.17

And Jesus perceiving it saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? do ye not yet perceive, neither understand? have ye your heart hardened?

8.18

Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?

8.19

When I brake the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.

8.20

And when the seven among the four thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces took ye up? And they say unto him, Seven.

8.21

And he said unto them, Do ye not yet understand?

8.22

And they come unto Bethsaida. And they bring to him a blind man, and beseech him to touch him.

8.23

And he took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village; and when he had spit on his eyes, and laid his hands upon him, he asked him, Seest thou aught?

8.24

And he looked up, and said, I see men; for I behold `them' as trees, walking.

8.25

Then again he laid his hands upon his eyes; and he looked stedfastly, and was restored, and saw all things clearly.

8.26

And he sent him away to his home, saying, Do not even enter into the village.

8.27

And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi: and on the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?

8.28

And they told him, saying, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but others, One of the prophets.

8.29

And he asked them, But who say ye that I am? Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.

8.30

And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.

8.31

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.

8.32

And he spake the saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.

8.33

But he turning about, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith, Get thee behind me, Satan; for thou mindest not the things of God, but the things of men.

8.34

And he called unto him the multitude with his disciples, and said unto them, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

8.35

For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it.

8.36

For what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?

8.37

For what should a man give in exchange for his life?

8.38

For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of man also shall be ashamed of him, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

9 Mark

9.1

And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There are some here of them that stand `by', who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God come with power.

9.2

And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them;

9.3

and his garments became glistering, exceeding white, so as no fuller on earth can whiten them.

9.4

And there appeared unto them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.

9.5

And Peter answereth and saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

9.6

For he knew not what to answer; for they became sore afraid.

9.7

And there came a cloud overshadowing them: and there came a voice out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son: hear ye him.

9.8

And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any more, save Jesus only with themselves.

9.9

And as they were coming down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, save when the Son of man should have risen again from the dead.

9.10

And they kept the saying, questioning among themselves what the rising again from the dead should mean.

9.11

And they asked him, saying, `How is it' that the scribes say that Elijah must first come?

9.12

And he said unto them, Elijah indeed cometh first, and restoreth all things: and how is it written of the Son of man, that he should suffer many things and be set at nought?

9.13

But I say unto you, that Elijah is come, and they have also done unto him whatsoever they would, even as it is written of him.

9.14

And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning with them.

9.15

And straightway all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

9.16

And he asked them, What question ye with them?

9.17

And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I brought unto thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit;

9.18

and wheresoever it taketh him, it dasheth him down: and he foameth, and grindeth his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast it out; and they were not able.

9.19

And he answereth them and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him unto me.

9.20

And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him grievously; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

9.21

And he asked his father, How long time is it since this hath come unto him? And he said, From a child.

9.22

And oft-times it hath cast him both into the fire and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.

9.23

And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst! All things are possible to him that believeth.

9.24

Straightway the father of the child cried out, and said, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

9.25

And when Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

9.26

And having cried out, and torn him much, he came out: and `the boy' became as one dead; insomuch that the more part said, He is dead.

9.27

But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.

9.28

And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, `How is it' that we could not cast it out?

9.29

And he said unto them, This kind can come out by nothing, save by prayer.

9.30

And they went forth from thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.

9.31

For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered up into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and when he is killed, after three days he shall rise again.

9.32

But they understood not the saying, and were afraid to ask him.

9.33

And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house he asked them, What were ye reasoning on the way?

9.34

But they held their peace: for they had disputed one with another on the way, who `was' the greatest.

9.35

And he sat down, and called the twelve; and he saith unto them, If any man would be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.

9.36

And he took a little child, and set him in the midst of them: and taking him in his arms, he said unto them,

9.37

Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

9.38

John said unto him, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followed not us.

9.39

But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man who shall do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

9.40

For he that is not against us is for us.

9.41

For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink, because ye are Christ's, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.

9.42

And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it were better for him if a great millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

9.43

And if thy hand cause thee to stumble, cut it off: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed, rather than having thy two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire.

9.44

`where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.'

9.45

And if thy foot cause thee to stumble, cut it off: it is good for thee to enter into life halt, rather than having thy two feet to be cast into hell.

9.46

`where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.'

9.47

And if thine eye cause thee to stumble, cast it out: it is good for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell;

9.48

where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

9.49

For every one shall be salted with fire.

9.50

Salt is good: but if the salt have lost its saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.

10 Mark

10.1

And he arose from thence and cometh into the borders of Judaea and beyond the Jordan: and multitudes come together unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.

10.2

And there came unto him Pharisees, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away `his' wife? trying him.

10.3

And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?

10.4

And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.

10.5

But Jesus said unto them, For your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.

10.6

But from the beginning of the creation, Male and female made he them.

10.7

For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife;

10.8

and the two shall become one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh.

10.9

What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

10.10

And in the house the disciples asked him again of this matter.

10.11

And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her:

10.12

and if she herself shall put away her husband, and marry another, she committeth adultery.

10.13

And they were bringing unto him little children, that he should touch them: and the disciples rebuked them.

10.14

But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me; forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.

10.15

Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.

10.16

And he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.

10.17

And as he was going forth into the way, there ran one to him, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

10.18

And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good save one, `even' God.

10.19

Thou knowest the commandments, Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor thy father and mother.

10.20

And he said unto him, Teacher, all these things have I observed from my youth.

10.21

And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

10.22

But his countenance fell at the saying, and he went away sorrowful: for he was one that had great possessions.

10.23

And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

10.24

And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

10.25

It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

10.26

And they were astonished exceedingly, saying unto him, Then who can be saved?

10.27

Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.

10.28

Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.

10.29

Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for my sake, and for the gospel's sake,

10.30

but he shall receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.

10.31

But many `that are' first shall be last; and the last first.

10.32

And they were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going before them: and they were amazed; and they that followed were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were to happen unto him,

10.33

`saying', Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles:

10.34

and they shall mock him, and shall spit upon him, and shall scourge him, and shall kill him; and after three days he shall rise again.

10.35

And there come near unto him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying unto him, Teacher, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall ask of thee.

10.36

And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?

10.37

And they said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on `thy' left hand, in thy glory.

10.38

But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I drink? or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

10.39

And they said unto him, We are able. And Jesus said unto them, The cup that I drink ye shall drink; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:

10.40

but to sit on my right hand or on `my' left hand is not mine to give; but `it is for them' for whom it hath been prepared.

10.41

And when the ten heard it, they began to be moved with indignation concerning James and John.

10.42

And Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they who are accounted to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great ones exercise authority over them.

10.43

But it is not so among you: but whosoever would become great among you, shall be your minister;

10.44

and whosoever would be first among you, shall be servant of all.

10.45

For the Son of man also came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

10.46

And they come to Jericho: and as he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the way side.

10.47

And when he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

10.48

And many rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

10.49

And Jesus stood still, and said, Call ye him. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good cheer: rise, he calleth thee.

10.50

And he, casting away his garment, sprang up, and came to Jesus.

10.51

And Jesus answered him, and said, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? And the blind man said unto him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.

10.52

And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And straightway he received his sight, and followed him in the way.

11 Mark

11.1

And when they draw nigh unto Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,

11.2

and saith unto them, Go your way into the village that is over against you: and straightway as ye enter into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon no man ever yet sat; loose him, and bring him.

11.3

And if any one say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye, The Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him back hither.

11.4

And they went away, and found a colt tied at the door without in the open street; and they loose him.

11.5

And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?

11.6

And they said unto them even as Jesus had said: and they let them go.

11.7

And they bring the colt unto Jesus, and cast on him their garments; and he sat upon him.

11.8

And many spread their garments upon the way; and others branches, which they had cut from the fields.

11.9

And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, Hosanna; Blessed `is' he that cometh in the name of the Lord:

11.10

Blessed `is' the kingdom that cometh, `the kingdom' of our father David: Hosanna in the highest.

11.11

And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple; and when he had looked round about upon all things, it being now eventide, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.

11.12

And on the morrow, when they were come out from Bethany, he hungered.

11.13

And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find anything thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for it was not the season of figs.

11.14

And he answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And his disciples heard it.

11.15

And they come to Jerusalem: and he entered into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and them that bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;

11.16

and he would not suffer that any man should carry a vessel through the temple.

11.17

And he taught, and said unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? but ye have made it a den of robbers.

11.18

And the chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, for all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

11.19

And every evening he went forth out of the city.

11.20

And as they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.

11.21

And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Rabbi, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.

11.22

And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

11.23

Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he saith cometh to pass; he shall have it.

11.24

Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

11.25

And whensoever ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any one; that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

11.26

`But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your trespasses.'

11.27

And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders;

11.28

and they said unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? or who gave thee this authority to do these things?

11.29

And Jesus said unto them, I will ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

11.30

The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? answer me.

11.31

And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; He will say, Why then did ye not believe him?

11.32

But should we say, From men--they feared the people: for all verily held John to be a prophet.

11.33

And they answered Jesus and say, We know not. And Jesus saith unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

12 Mark

12.1

And he began to speak unto them in parables. A man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a pit for the winepress, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.

12.2

And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruits of the vineyard.

12.3

And they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.

12.4

And again he sent unto them another servant; and him they wounded in the head, and handled shamefully.

12.5

And he sent another; and him they killed: and many others; beating some, and killing some.

12.6

He had yet one, a beloved son: he sent him last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.

12.7

But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.

12.8

And they took him, and killed him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard.

12.9

What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.

12.10

Have ye not read even this scripture: The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner;

12.11

This was from the Lord, And it is marvellous in our eyes?

12.12

And they sought to lay hold on him; and they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spake the parable against them: and they left him, and went away.

12.13

And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might catch him in talk.

12.14

And when they were come, they say unto him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest not for any one; for thou regardest not the person of men, but of a truth teachest the way of God: Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?

12.15

Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why make ye trial of me? bring me a denarius, that I may see it.

12.16

And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

12.17

And Jesus said unto them, Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's. And they marvelled greatly at him.

12.18

And there come unto him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

12.19

Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave a wife behind him, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

12.20

There were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed;

12.21

and the second took her, and died, leaving no seed behind him; and the third likewise:

12.22

and the seven left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.

12.23

In the resurrection whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

12.24

Jesus said unto them, Is it not for this cause that ye err, that ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?

12.25

For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as angels in heaven.

12.26

But as touching the dead, that they are raised; have ye not read in the book of Moses, in `the place concerning' the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying, I `am' the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

12.27

He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: ye do greatly err.

12.28

And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, What commandment is the first of all?

12.29

Jesus answered, The first is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one:

12.30

and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.

12.31

The second is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

12.32

And the scribe said unto him, Of a truth, Teacher, thou hast well said that he is one; and there is none other but he:

12.33

and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is much more than all whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices.

12.34

And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.

12.35

And Jesus answered and said, as he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that the Christ is the son of David?

12.36

David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.

12.37

David himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

12.38

And in his teaching he said, Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and `to have' salutations in the marketplaces,

12.39

and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts:

12.40

they that devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers; these shall receive greater condemnation.

12.41

And he sat down over against the treasury, and beheld how the multitude cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

12.42

And there came a poor widow, and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing.

12.43

And he called unto him his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow cast in more than all they that are casting into the treasury:

12.44

for they all did cast in of their superfluity; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, `even' all her living.

13 Mark

13.1

And as he went forth out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Teacher, behold, what manner of stones and what manner of buildings!

13.2

And Jesus said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left here one stone upon another, which shall not be thrown down.

13.3

And as he sat on the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

13.4

Tell us, when shall these things be? and what `shall be' the sign when these things are all about to be accomplished?

13.5

And Jesus began to say unto them, Take heed that no man lead you astray.

13.6

Many shall come in my name, saying, I am `he'; and shall lead many astray.

13.7

And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be not troubled: `these things' must needs come to pass; but the end is not yet.

13.8

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there shall be earthquakes in divers places; there shall be famines: these things are the beginning of travail.

13.9

But take ye heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in synagogues shall ye be beaten; and before governors and kings shall ye stand for my sake, for a testimony unto them.

13.10

And the gospel must first be preached unto all the nations.

13.11

And when they lead you `to judgment', and deliver you up, be not anxious beforehand what ye shall speak: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye; for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Spirit.

13.12

And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and the father his child; and children shall rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death.

13.13

And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.

13.14

But when ye see the abomination of desolation standing where he ought not (let him that readeth understand), then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains:

13.15

and let him that is on the housetop not go down, nor enter in, to take anything out his house:

13.16

and let him that is in the field not return back to take his cloak.

13.17

But woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck in those days!

13.18

And pray ye that it be not in the winter.

13.19

For those days shall be tribulation, such as there hath not been the like from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never shall be.

13.20

And except the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the elect's sake, whom he chose, he shortened the days.

13.21

And then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Christ; or, Lo, there; believe `it' not:

13.22

for there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, the elect.

13.23

But take ye heed: behold, I have told you all things beforehand.

13.24

But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

13.25

and the stars shall be falling from heaven, and the powers that are in the heavens shall be shaken.

13.26

And then shall they see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory.

13.27

And then shall he send forth the angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

13.28

Now from the fig tree learn her parable: when her branch is now become tender, and putteth forth its leaves, ye know that the summer is nigh;

13.29

even so ye also, when ye see these things coming to pass, know ye that he is nigh, `even' at the doors.

13.30

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, until all these things be accomplished.

13.31

Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

13.32

But of that day or that hour knoweth no one, not even the angels in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

13.33

Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

13.34

`It is' as `when' a man, sojourning in another country, having left his house, and given authority to his servants, to each one his work, commanded also the porter to watch.

13.35

Watch therefore: for ye know not when the lord of the house cometh, whether at even, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or in the morning;

13.36

lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

13.37

And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
