Mark 3
- 1And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was there a man having his hand dried up.
- 2And they watched him if he would heal him on the sabbath, that they might accuse him.
- 3And he says to the man who had his hand dried up, Rise up [supplied: and come] into the midst.
- 4And he says to them, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill? But they were silent.
- 5And looking round upon them with anger, distressed at the hardening of their heart, he says to the man, Stretch out thy hand. And he stretched [supplied: it] out, and his hand was restored.
- 6And the Pharisees going out straightway with the Herodians took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.
- 7And Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea; and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,
- 8and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea and beyond the Jordan; and they of around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, having heard what things he did, came to him.
- 9And he spoke to his disciples, in order that a little ship should wait upon him on account of the crowd, that they might not press upon him.
- 10For he healed many, so that they beset him that they might touch him, as many as had plagues.
- 11And the unclean spirits, when they beheld him, fell down before him, and cried saying, *Thou* art the Son of God.
- 12And he rebuked them much, that they might not make him manifest.
- 13And he goes up into the mountain, and calls whom he himself would, and they went to him.
- 14And he appointed twelve that they might be with him, and that he might send them to preach,
- 15and to have power [supplied: to heal diseases, and] to cast out demons.
- 16And he gave to Simon the surname of Peter;
- 17and James the [supplied: son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, and he gave them the surname of Boanerges, that is, Sons of thunder;
- 18and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the [supplied: son] of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean,
- 19and Judas Iscariote, who also delivered him up. And they come to [supplied: the] house.
- 20And again a crowd comes together, so that they cannot even eat bread.
- 21And his relatives having heard [supplied: of it] went out to lay hold on him, for they said, He is out of his mind.
- 22And the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebub, and, By the prince of the demons he casts out demons.
- 23And having called them to [supplied: him], he said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?
- 24And if a kingdom has become divided against itself, that kingdom cannot subsist.
- 25And if a house has become divided against itself, that house cannot subsist.
- 26And if Satan rise up against himself, and is divided, he cannot subsist, but has an end.
- 27But no one can, having entered into his house, plunder the goods of the strong [supplied: man] unless he first bind the strong [supplied: man], and then he will plunder his house.
- 28Verily I say unto you, that all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and all the injurious speeches [supplied: with] which they may speak injuriously;
- 29but whosoever shall speak injuriously against the Holy Spirit, to eternity has no forgiveness; but lies under the guilt of an everlasting sin;
- 30-- because they said, He has an unclean spirit.
- 31And his brethren and his mother come, and standing without sent to him calling him.
- 32And a crowd sat around him. And they said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek thee without.
- 33And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother or my brethren?
- 34And looking around in a circuit at those that were sitting around him, he says, Behold my mother and my brethren:
- 35for whosoever shall do the will of God, *he* is my brother, and sister, and mother.
