MARK ยท Chapter 1
1:1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
1:2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before
your face, which shall prepare your way before you.
1:3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare all of you the
way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
1:4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance
for the remission of sins.
1:5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of
Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing
their sins.
1:6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a
skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
1:7 And preached, saying, There comes one mightier than I after me,
the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you
with the Holy Spirit.
1:9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth
of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
1:10 And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens
opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
1:11 And there came a voice from heaven, saying, You are my beloved
Son, in whom I am well pleased.
1:12 And immediately the spirit drives him into the wilderness.
1:13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan;
and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
1:14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee,
preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at
hand: repent all of you, and believe the gospel.
1:16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew
his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
1:17 And Jesus said unto them, Come all of you after me, and I will
make you to become fishers of men.
1:18 And immediately they forsook their nets, and followed him.
1:19 And when he had gone a little farther thence, he saw James the
son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending
their nets.
1:20 And immediately he called them: and they left their father Zebedee
in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
1:21 And they went into Capernaum; and immediately on the sabbath day
he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
1:22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as
one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
1:23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit;
and he cried out,
1:24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with you, you Jesus of
Nazareth? are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy
One of God.
1:25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold your peace, and come out of
him.
1:26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried
with a loud voice, he came out of him.
1:27 And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among
themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for
with authority commands he even the unclean spirits, and they
do obey him.
1:28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region
round about Galilee.
1:29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they
entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
1:30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and soon they tell
him of her.
1:31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately
the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
1:32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that
were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
1:33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
1:34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast
out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew
him.
1:35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went
out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
1:36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
1:37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek
for you.
1:38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may
preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
1:39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and
cast out devils.
1:40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down
to him, and saying unto him, If you will, you can make me clean.
1:41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched
him, and says unto him, I will; be you clean.
1:42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed
from him, and he was cleansed.
1:43 And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
1:44 And says unto him, See you say nothing to any man: but go your
way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things
which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
1:45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad
the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into
the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every
quarter.
