MAR 1:1  The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;

MAR 1:2  As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before
 thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

MAR 1:3  The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the
 Lord, make his paths straight.

MAR 1:4  John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of
 repentance for the remission of sins.

MAR 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.

MAR 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;

MAR 1:7  And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the
 latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

MAR 1:8  I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with
 the Holy Ghost.

MAR 1:9  And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of
 Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

MAR 1:10  And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens
 opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

MAR 1:11  And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son,
 in whom I am well pleased.

MAR 1:12  And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:14  Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee,
 preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

MAR 1:15  And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand:
 repent ye, and believe the gospel.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:17  And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to
 become fishers of men.

MAR 1:18  And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:20  And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee
 in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.

MAR 1:21  And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he
 entered into the synagogue, and taught.

MAR 1:22  And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one
 that had authority, and not as the scribes.

MAR 1:23  And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he
 cried out,

MAR 1:24  Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of
 Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One
 of God.

MAR 1:25  And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

MAR 1:26  And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud
 voice, he came out of him.

MAR 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 commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

MAR 1:28  And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region
 round about Galilee.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:30  But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him
 of her.

MAR 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.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:33  And all the city was gathered together at the door.

MAR 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.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:36  And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

MAR 1:37  And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for
 thee.

MAR 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.

MAR 1:39  And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast
 out devils.

MAR 1:40  And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to
 him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

MAR 1:41  And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched
 him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

MAR 1:42  And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from
 him, and he was cleansed.

MAR 1:43  And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;

MAR 1:44  And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way,
 shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which
 Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

MAR 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.

MAR 2:1  And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised
 that he was in the house.

MAR 2:2  And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was
 no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached
 the word unto them.

MAR 2:3  And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was
 borne of four.

MAR 2:4  And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they
 uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let
 down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

MAR 2:5  When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son,
 thy sins be forgiven thee.

MAR 2:6  But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning
 in their hearts,

MAR 2:7  Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God
 only?

MAR 2:8  And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so
 reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in
 your hearts?

MAR 2:9  Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be
 forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

MAR 2:10  But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to
 forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

MAR 2:11  I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into
 thine house.

MAR 2:12  And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them
 all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never
 saw it on this fashion.

MAR 2:13  And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude
 resorted unto him, and he taught them.

MAR 2:14  And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the
 receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed
 him.

MAR 2:15  And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many
 publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for
 there were many, and they followed him.

MAR 2:16  And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and
 sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh
 with publicans and sinners?

MAR 2:17  When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no
 need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the
 righteous, but sinners to repentance.

MAR 2:18  And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they
 come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees
 fast, but thy disciples fast not?

MAR 2:19  And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast,
 while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with
 them, they cannot fast.

MAR 2:20  But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from
 them, and then shall they fast in those days.

MAR 2:21  No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the
 new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made
 worse.

MAR 2:22  And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth
 burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred:
 but new wine must be put into new bottles.

MAR 2:23  And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the
 sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of
 corn.

MAR 2:24  And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath
 day that which is not lawful?

MAR 2:25  And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had
 need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?

MAR 2:26  How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high
 priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the
 priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

MAR 2:27  And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for
 the sabbath:

MAR 2:28  Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

MAR 3:1  And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there
 which had a withered hand.

MAR 3:2  And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day;
 that they might accuse him.

MAR 3:3  And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.

MAR 3:4  And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days,
 or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.

MAR 3:5  And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved
 for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine
 hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

MAR 3:6  And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the
 Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

MAR 3:7  But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great
 multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,

MAR 3:8  And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they
 about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great
 things he did, came unto him.

MAR 3:9  And he spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him
 because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.

MAR 3:10  For he had healed many; insomuch that they pressed upon him for to
 touch him, as many as had plagues.

MAR 3:11  And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and
 cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

MAR 3:12  And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.

MAR 3:13  And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would:
 and they came unto him.

MAR 3:14  And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he
 might send them forth to preach,

MAR 3:15  And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:

MAR 3:16  And Simon he surnamed Peter;

MAR 3:17  And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he
 surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:

MAR 3:18  And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and
 James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,

MAR 3:19  And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an
 house.

MAR 3:20  And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so
 much as eat bread.

MAR 3:21  And when his friends heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him:
 for they said, He is beside himself.

MAR 3:22  And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath
 Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.

MAR 3:23  And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can
 Satan cast out Satan?

MAR 3:24  And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot
 stand.

MAR 3:25  And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

MAR 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot
 stand, but hath an end.

MAR 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods,
 except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.

MAR 3:28  Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of
 men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:

MAR 3:29  But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never
 forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.

MAR 3:30  Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.

MAR 3:31  There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without,
 sent unto him, calling him.

MAR 3:32  And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy
 mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.

MAR 3:33  And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?

MAR 3:34  And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said,
 Behold my mother and my brethren!

MAR 3:35  For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and
 my sister, and mother.

MAR 4:1  And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered
 unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the
 sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

MAR 4:2  And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his
 doctrine,

MAR 4:3  Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

MAR 4:4  And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the
 fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

MAR 4:5  And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and
 immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

MAR 4:6  But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root,
 it withered away.

MAR 4:7  And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and
 it yielded no fruit.

MAR 4:8  And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and
 increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an
 hundred.

MAR 4:9  And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

MAR 4:10  And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked
 of him the parable.

MAR 4:11  And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery
 of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are
 done in parables:

MAR 4:12  That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may
 hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and
 their sins should be forgiven them.

MAR 4:13  And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye
 know all parables?

MAR 4:14  The sower soweth the word.

MAR 4:15  And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when
 they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was
 sown in their hearts.

MAR 4:16  And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when
 they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

MAR 4:17  And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time:
 afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake,
 immediately they are offended.

MAR 4:18  And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the
 word,

MAR 4:19  And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the
 lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh
 unfruitful.

MAR 4:20  And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the
 word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and
 some an hundred.

MAR 4:21  And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel,
 or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

MAR 4:22  For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was
 any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

MAR 4:23  If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

MAR 4:24  And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye
 mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be
 given.

MAR 4:25  For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from
 him shall be taken even that which he hath.

MAR 4:26  And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed
 into the ground;

MAR 4:27  And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring
 and grow up, he knoweth not how.

MAR 4:28  For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then
 the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

MAR 4:29  But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the
 sickle, because the harvest is come.

MAR 4:30  And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with
 what comparison shall we compare it?

MAR 4:31  It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the
 earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

MAR 4:32  But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all
 herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may
 lodge under the shadow of it.

MAR 4:33  And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were
 able to hear it.

MAR 4:34  But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were
 alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

MAR 4:35  And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us
 pass over unto the other side.

MAR 4:36  And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he
 was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

MAR 4:37  And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the
 ship, so that it was now full.

MAR 4:38  And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and
 they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

MAR 4:39  And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be
 still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

MAR 4:40  And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have
 no faith?

MAR 4:41  And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of
 man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

MAR 5:1  And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country
 of the Gadarenes.

MAR 5:2  And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out
 of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

MAR 5:3  Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no,
 not with chains:

MAR 5:4  Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the
 chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces:
 neither could any man tame him.

MAR 5:5  And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs,
 crying, and cutting himself with stones.

MAR 5:6  But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

MAR 5:7  And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee,
 Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment
 me not.

MAR 5:8  For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

MAR 5:9  And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name
 is Legion: for we are many.

MAR 5:10  And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the
 country.

MAR 5:11  Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine
 feeding.

MAR 5:12  And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that
 we may enter into them.

MAR 5:13  And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went
 out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep
 place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the
 sea.

MAR 5:14  And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the
 country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

MAR 5:15  And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the
 devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and
 they were afraid.

MAR 5:16  And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was
 possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.

MAR 5:17  And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.

MAR 5:18  And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with
 the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

MAR 5:19  Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy
 friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath
 had compassion on thee.

MAR 5:20  And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things
 Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

MAR 5:21  And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side,
 much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.

MAR 5:22  And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus
 by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,

MAR 5:23  And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the
 point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be
 healed; and she shall live.

MAR 5:24  And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged
 him.

MAR 5:25  And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

MAR 5:26  And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all
 that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

MAR 5:27  When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched
 his garment.

MAR 5:28  For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

MAR 5:29  And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt
 in her body that she was healed of that plague.

MAR 5:30  And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of
 him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

MAR 5:31  And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging
 thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

MAR 5:32  And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

MAR 5:33  But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her,
 came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

MAR 5:34  And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in
 peace, and be whole of thy plague.

MAR 5:35  While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's
 house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master
 any further?

MAR 5:36  As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the
 ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.

MAR 5:37  And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John
 the brother of James.

MAR 5:38  And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth
 the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

MAR 5:39  And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this
 ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.

MAR 5:40  And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he
 taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with
 him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

MAR 5:41  And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi;
 which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.

MAR 5:42  And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age
 of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

MAR 5:43  And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and
 commanded that something should be given her to eat.

MAR 6:1  And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his
 disciples follow him.

MAR 6:2  And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue:
 and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these
 things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such
 mighty works are wrought by his hands?

MAR 6:3  Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and
 Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they
 were offended at him.

MAR 6:4  But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his
 own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.

MAR 6:5  And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon
 a few sick folk, and healed them.

MAR 6:6  And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about
 the villages, teaching.

MAR 6:7  And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two
 and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;

MAR 6:8  And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey,
 save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:

MAR 6:9  But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.

MAR 6:10  And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an
 house, there abide till ye depart from that place.

MAR 6:11  And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart
 thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them.
 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha
 in the day of judgment, than for that city.

MAR 6:12  And they went out, and preached that men should repent.

MAR 6:13  And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were
 sick, and healed them.

MAR 6:14  And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he
 said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty
 works do shew forth themselves in him.

MAR 6:15  Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet,
 or as one of the prophets.

MAR 6:16  But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded:
 he is risen from the dead.

MAR 6:17  For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound
 him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had
 married her.

MAR 6:18  For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy
 brother's wife.

MAR 6:19  Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed
 him; but she could not:

MAR 6:20  For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an
 holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard
 him gladly.

MAR 6:21  And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a
 supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee;

MAR 6:22  And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and
 pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask
 of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.

MAR 6:23  And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give
 it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.

MAR 6:24  And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And
 she said, The head of John the Baptist.

MAR 6:25  And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked,
 saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the
 Baptist.

MAR 6:26  And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for
 their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.

MAR 6:27  And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head
 to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,

MAR 6:28  And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the
 damsel gave it to her mother.

MAR 6:29  And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his
 corpse, and laid it in a tomb.

MAR 6:30  And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told
 him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.

MAR 6:31  And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert
 place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had
 no leisure so much as to eat.

MAR 6:32  And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.

MAR 6:33  And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot
 thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.

MAR 6:34  And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with
 compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and
 he began to teach them many things.

MAR 6:35  And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and
 said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:

MAR 6:36  Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and
 into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.

MAR 6:37  He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say
 unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them
 to eat?

MAR 6:38  He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when
 they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.

MAR 6:39  And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the
 green grass.

MAR 6:40  And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.

MAR 6:41  And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked
 up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his
 disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.

MAR 6:42  And they did all eat, and were filled.

MAR 6:43  And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the
 fishes.

MAR 6:44  And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.

MAR 6:45  And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the
 ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away
 the people.

MAR 6:46  And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.

MAR 6:47  And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he
 alone on the land.

MAR 6:48  And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto
 them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking
 upon the sea, and would have passed by them.

MAR 6:49  But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been
 a spirit, and cried out:

MAR 6:50  For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked
 with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.

MAR 6:51  And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they
 were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.

MAR 6:52  For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart
 was hardened.

MAR 6:53  And when they had passed over, they came into the land of
 Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.

MAR 6:54  And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,

MAR 6:55  And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry
 about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.

MAR 6:56  And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or
 country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might
 touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him
 were made whole.

MAR 7:1  Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes,
 which came from Jerusalem.

MAR 7:2  And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that
 is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.

MAR 7:3  For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft,
 eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

MAR 7:4  And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not.
 And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the
 washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.

MAR 7:5  Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples
 according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

MAR 7:6  He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you
 hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but
 their heart is far from me.

MAR 7:7  Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the
 commandments of men.

MAR 7:8  For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men,
 as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.

MAR 7:9  And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God,
 that ye may keep your own tradition.

MAR 7:10  For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth
 father or mother, let him die the death:

MAR 7:11  But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban,
 that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he
 shall be free.

MAR 7:12  And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;

MAR 7:13  Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which
 ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

MAR 7:14  And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them,
 Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:

MAR 7:15  There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can
 defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile
 the man.

MAR 7:16  If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

MAR 7:17  And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples
 asked him concerning the parable.

MAR 7:18  And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye
 not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it
 cannot defile him;

MAR 7:19  Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth
 out into the draught, purging all meats?

MAR 7:20  And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.

MAR 7:21  For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
 adulteries, fornications, murders,

MAR 7:22  Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil
 eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

MAR 7:23  All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

MAR 7:24  And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and
 Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could
 not be hid.

MAR 7:25  For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit,
 heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:

MAR 7:26  The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought
 him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

MAR 7:27  But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is
 not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.

MAR 7:28  And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the
 table eat of the children's crumbs.

MAR 7:29  And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone
 out of thy daughter.

MAR 7:30  And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and
 her daughter laid upon the bed.

MAR 7:31  And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto
 the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.

MAR 7:32  And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in
 his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.

MAR 7:33  And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into
 his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;

MAR 7:34  And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha,
 that is, Be opened.

MAR 7:35  And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue
 was loosed, and he spake plain.

MAR 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;

MAR 7:37  And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things
 well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

MAR 8:1  In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to
 eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,

MAR 8:2  I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me
 three days, and have nothing to eat:

MAR 8:3  And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint
 by the way: for divers of them came from far.

MAR 8:4  And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these
 men with bread here in the wilderness?

MAR 8:5  And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

MAR 8:6  And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the
 seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set
 before them; and they did set them before the people.

MAR 8:7  And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set
 them also before them.

MAR 8:8  So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat
 that was left seven baskets.

MAR 8:9  And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them
 away.

MAR 8:10  And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came
 into the parts of Dalmanutha.

MAR 8:11  And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking
 of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.

MAR 8:12  And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this
 generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be
 given unto this generation.

MAR 8:13  And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the
 other side.

MAR 8:14  Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they
 in the ship with them more than one loaf.

MAR 8:15  And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the
 Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.

MAR 8:16  And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no
 bread.

MAR 8:17  And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye
 have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart
 yet hardened?

MAR 8:18  Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not
 remember?

MAR 8:19  When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets
 full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.

MAR 8:20  And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of
 fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.

MAR 8:21  And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?

MAR 8:22  And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and
 besought him to touch him.

MAR 8:23  And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town;
 and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if
 he saw ought.

MAR 8:24  And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.

MAR 8:25  After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look
 up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.

MAR 8:26  And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town,
 nor tell it to any in the town.

MAR 8:27  And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea
 Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do
 men say that I am?

MAR 8:28  And they answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others,
 One of the prophets.

MAR 8:29  And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter
 answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.

MAR 8:30  And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.

MAR 8:31  And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many
 things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and
 scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

MAR 8:32  And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to
 rebuke him.

MAR 8:33  But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked
 Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things
 that be of God, but the things that be of men.

MAR 8:34  And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also,
 he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and
 take up his cross, and follow me.

MAR 8:35  For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall
 lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

MAR 8:36  For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and
 lose his own soul?

MAR 8:37  Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

MAR 8:38  Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this
 adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be
 ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

MAR 9:1  And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some
 of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen
 the kingdom of God come with power.

MAR 9:2  And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and
 John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he
 was transfigured before them.

MAR 9:3  And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no
 fuller on earth can white them.

MAR 9:4  And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking
 with Jesus.

MAR 9:5  And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be
 here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and
 one for Elias.

MAR 9:6  For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.

MAR 9:7  And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out
 of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

MAR 9:8  And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any
 more, save Jesus only with themselves.

MAR 9:9  And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they
 should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen
 from the dead.

MAR 9:10  And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with
 another what the rising from the dead should mean.

MAR 9:11  And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first
 come?

MAR 9:12  And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and
 restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must
 suffer many things, and be set at nought.

MAR 9:13  But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done
 unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

MAR 9:14  And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about
 them, and the scribes questioning with them.

MAR 9:15  And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly
 amazed, and running to him saluted him.

MAR 9:16  And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

MAR 9:17  And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought
 unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;

MAR 9:18  And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and
 gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that
 they should cast him out; and they could not.

MAR 9:19  He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I
 be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

MAR 9:20  And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the
 spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

MAR 9:21  And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him?
 And he said, Of a child.

MAR 9:22  And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to
 destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help
 us.

MAR 9:23  Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible
 to him that believeth.

MAR 9:24  And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with
 tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

MAR 9:25  When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the
 foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come
 out of him, and enter no more into him.

MAR 9:26  And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he
 was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

MAR 9:27  But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

MAR 9:28  And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him
 privately, Why could not we cast him out?

MAR 9:29  And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by
 prayer and fasting.

MAR 9:30  And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would
 not that any man should know it.

MAR 9:31  For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is
 delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he
 is killed, he shall rise the third day.

MAR 9:32  But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

MAR 9:33  And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What
 was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?

MAR 9:34  But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among
 themselves, who should be the greatest.

MAR 9:35  And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any
 man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

MAR 9:36  And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he
 had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,

MAR 9:37  Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth
 me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

MAR 9:38  And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils
 in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth
 not us.

MAR 9:39  But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a
 miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.

MAR 9:40  For he that is not against us is on our part.

MAR 9:41  For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name,
 because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his
 reward.

MAR 9:42  And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in
 me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he
 were cast into the sea.

MAR 9:43  And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to
 enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire
 that never shall be quenched:

MAR 9:44  Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

MAR 9:45  And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to
 enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the
 fire that never shall be quenched:

MAR 9:46  Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

MAR 9:47  And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to
 enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast
 into hell fire:

MAR 9:48  Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

MAR 9:49  For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be
 salted with salt.

MAR 9:50  Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will
 ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.

MAR 10:1  And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the
 farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was
 wont, he taught them again.

MAR 10:2  And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man
 to put away his wife? tempting him.

MAR 10:3  And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?

MAR 10:4  And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to
 put her away.

MAR 10:5  And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart
 he wrote you this precept.

MAR 10:6  But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

MAR 10:7  For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to
 his wife;

MAR 10:8  And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain,
 but one flesh.

MAR 10:9  What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

MAR 10:10  And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.

MAR 10:11  And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry
 another, committeth adultery against her.

MAR 10:12  And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to
 another, she committeth adultery.

MAR 10:13  And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them:
 and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.

MAR 10:14  But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them,
 Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such
 is the kingdom of God.

MAR 10:15  Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of
 God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.

MAR 10:16  And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and
 blessed them.

MAR 10:17  And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and
 kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may
 inherit eternal life?

MAR 10:18  And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none
 good but one, that is, God.

MAR 10:19  Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill,
 Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and
 mother.

MAR 10:20  And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed
 from my youth.

MAR 10:21  Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing
 thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the
 poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the
 cross, and follow me.

MAR 10:22  And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had
 great possessions.

MAR 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!

MAR 10:24  And the disciples were astonished 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!

MAR 10:25  It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for
 a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

MAR 10:26  And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves,
 Who then can be saved?

MAR 10:27  And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but
 not with God: for with God all things are possible.

MAR 10:28  Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have
 followed thee.

MAR 10:29  And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man
 that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife,
 or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,

MAR 10:30  But he shall receive an 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.

MAR 10:31  But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.

MAR 10:32  And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went
 before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid.
 And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should
 happen unto him,

MAR 10:33  Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be
 delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall
 condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:

MAR 10:34  And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon
 him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

MAR 10:35  And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying,
 Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.

MAR 10:36  And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?

MAR 10:37  They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right
 hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.

MAR 10:38  But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink
 of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am
 baptized with?

MAR 10:39  And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall
 indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am
 baptized withal shall ye be baptized:

MAR 10:40  But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give;
 but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.

MAR 10:41  And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with
 James and John.

MAR 10:42  But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they
 which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them;
 and their great ones exercise authority upon them.

MAR 10:43  But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among
 you, shall be your minister:

MAR 10:44  And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.

MAR 10:45  For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to
 minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

MAR 10:46  And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his
 disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus,
 sat by the highway side begging.

MAR 10:47  And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry
 out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

MAR 10:48  And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the
 more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

MAR 10:49  And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call
 the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.

MAR 10:50  And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.

MAR 10:51  And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should
 do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my
 sight.

MAR 10:52  And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole.
 And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.

MAR 11:1  And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at
 the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,

MAR 11:2  And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you:
 and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon
 never man sat; loose him, and bring him.

MAR 11:3  And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord
 hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.

MAR 11:4  And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without
 in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.

MAR 11:5  And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye,
 loosing the colt?

MAR 11:6  And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let
 them go.

MAR 11:7  And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him;
 and he sat upon him.

MAR 11:8  And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down
 branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.

MAR 11:9  And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying,
 Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:

MAR 11:10  Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name
 of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.

MAR 11:11  And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he
 had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he
 went out unto Bethany with the twelve.

MAR 11:12  And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:

MAR 11:13  And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he
 might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but
 leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.

MAR 11:14  And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee
 hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.

MAR 11:15  And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and
 began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the
 tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;

MAR 11:16  And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through
 the temple.

MAR 11:17  And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall
 be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of
 thieves.

MAR 11:18  And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they
 might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished
 at his doctrine.

MAR 11:19  And when even was come, he went out of the city.

MAR 11:20  And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried
 up from the roots.

MAR 11:21  And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the
 fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.

MAR 11:22  And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

MAR 11:23  For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this
 mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt
 in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come
 to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

MAR 11:24  Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye
 pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

MAR 11:25  And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any:
 that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

MAR 11:26  But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in
 heaven forgive your trespasses.

MAR 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,

MAR 11:28  And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who
 gave thee this authority to do these things?

MAR 11:29  And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one
 question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these
 things.

MAR 11:30  The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.

MAR 11:31  And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From
 heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?

MAR 11:32  But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men
 counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.

MAR 11:33  And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus
 answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these
 things.

MAR 12:1  And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a
 vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and
 built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.

MAR 12:2  And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might
 receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.

MAR 12:3  And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.

MAR 12:4  And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast
 stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.

MAR 12:5  And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others;
 beating some, and killing some.

MAR 12:6  Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last
 unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.

MAR 12:7  But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come,
 let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be our's.

MAR 12:8  And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

MAR 12:9  What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and
 destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.

MAR 12:10  And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders
 rejected is become the head of the corner:

MAR 12:11  This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

MAR 12:12  And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they
 knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went
 their way.

MAR 12:13  And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the
 Herodians, to catch him in his words.

MAR 12:14  And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that
 thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of
 men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to
 Caesar, or not?

MAR 12:15  Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their
 hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see
 it.

MAR 12:16  And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and
 superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

MAR 12:17  And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that
 are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at
 him.

MAR 12:18  Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no
 resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

MAR 12:19  Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his
 wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his
 wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

MAR 12:20  Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying
 left no seed.

MAR 12:21  And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the
 third likewise.

MAR 12:22  And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died
 also.

MAR 12:23  In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife
 shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

MAR 12:24  And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because
 ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

MAR 12:25  For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are
 given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

MAR 12:26  And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the
 book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of
 Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

MAR 12:27  He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye
 therefore do greatly err.

MAR 12:28  And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning
 together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is
 the first commandment of all?

MAR 12:29  And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear,
 O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

MAR 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: this is the
 first commandment.

MAR 12:31  And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
 as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

MAR 12:32  And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the
 truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

MAR 12:33  And to love him with all the heart, and with all the
 understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love
 his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and
 sacrifices.

MAR 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.

MAR 12:35  And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say
 the scribes that Christ is the son of David?

MAR 12:36  For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord,
 Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

MAR 12:37  David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his
 son? And the common people heard him gladly.

MAR 12:38  And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which
 love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,

MAR 12:39  And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at
 feasts:

MAR 12:40  Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers:
 these shall receive greater damnation.

MAR 12:41  And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people
 cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

MAR 12:42  And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites,
 which make a farthing.

MAR 12:43  And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I
 say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which
 have cast into the treasury:

MAR 12:44  For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did
 cast in all that she had, even all her living.

MAR 13:1  And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto
 him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!

MAR 13:2  And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings?
 there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown
 down.

MAR 13:3  And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter
 and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

MAR 13:4  Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when
 all these things shall be fulfilled?

MAR 13:5  And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive
 you:

MAR 13:6  For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall
 deceive many.

MAR 13:7  And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not
 troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.

MAR 13:8  For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
 and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines
 and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

MAR 13:9  But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to
 councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought
 before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

MAR 13:10  And the gospel must first be published among all nations.

MAR 13:11  But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought
 beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever
 shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak,
 but the Holy Ghost.

MAR 13:12  Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father
 the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause
 them to be put to death.

MAR 13:13  And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that
 shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

MAR 13:14  But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by
 Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth
 understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

MAR 13:15  And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house,
 neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:

MAR 13:16  And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up
 his garment.

MAR 13:17  But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in
 those days!

MAR 13:18  And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.

MAR 13:19  For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the
 beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.

MAR 13:20  And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should
 be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened
 the days.

MAR 13:21  And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he
 is there; believe him not:

MAR 13:22  For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew
 signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

MAR 13:23  But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

MAR 13:24  But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be
 darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

MAR 13:25  And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in
 heaven shall be shaken.

MAR 13:26  And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with
 great power and glory.

MAR 13:27  And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his
 elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the
 uttermost part of heaven.

MAR 13:28  Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet
 tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:

MAR 13:29  So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass,
 know that it is nigh, even at the doors.

MAR 13:30  Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all
 these things be done.

MAR 13:31  Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

MAR 13:32  But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels
 which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

MAR 13:33  Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

MAR 13:34  For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his
 house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and
 commanded the porter to watch.

MAR 13:35  Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house
 cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

MAR 13:36  Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

MAR 13:37  And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

MAR 14:1  After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened
 bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him
 by craft, and put him to death.

MAR 14:2  But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the
 people.

MAR 14:3  And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at
 meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard
 very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.

MAR 14:4  And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said,
 Why was this waste of the ointment made?

MAR 14:5  For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and
 have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

MAR 14:6  And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a
 good work on me.

MAR 14:7  For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may
 do them good: but me ye have not always.

MAR 14:8  She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body
 to the burying.

MAR 14:9  Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached
 throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of
 for a memorial of her.

MAR 14:10  And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests,
 to betray him unto them.

MAR 14:11  And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him
 money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

MAR 14:12  And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the
 passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare
 that thou mayest eat the passover?

MAR 14:13  And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go
 ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water:
 follow him.

MAR 14:14  And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house,
 The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover
 with my disciples?

MAR 14:15  And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared:
 there make ready for us.

MAR 14:16  And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as
 he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

MAR 14:17  And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.

MAR 14:18  And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One
 of you which eateth with me shall betray me.

MAR 14:19  And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is
 it I? and another said, Is it I?

MAR 14:20  And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that
 dippeth with me in the dish.

MAR 14:21  The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to
 that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he
 had never been born.

MAR 14:22  And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake
 it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.

MAR 14:23  And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it
 to them: and they all drank of it.

MAR 14:24  And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which
 is shed for many.

MAR 14:25  Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the
 vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

MAR 14:26  And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of
 Olives.

MAR 14:27  And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me
 this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall
 be scattered.

MAR 14:28  But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

MAR 14:29  But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will
 not I.

MAR 14:30  And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day,
 even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

MAR 14:31  But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will
 not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.

MAR 14:32  And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to
 his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.

MAR 14:33  And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be
 sore amazed, and to be very heavy;

MAR 14:34  And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death:
 tarry ye here, and watch.

MAR 14:35  And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed
 that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

MAR 14:36  And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take
 away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

MAR 14:37  And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter,
 Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?

MAR 14:38  Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly
 is ready, but the flesh is weak.

MAR 14:39  And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.

MAR 14:40  And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes
 were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.

MAR 14:41  And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and
 take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is
 betrayed into the hands of sinners.

MAR 14:42  Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.

MAR 14:43  And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the
 twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief
 priests and the scribes and the elders.

MAR 14:44  And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever
 I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.

MAR 14:45  And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith,
 Master, master; and kissed him.

MAR 14:46  And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

MAR 14:47  And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant
 of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

MAR 14:48  And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a
 thief, with swords and with staves to take me?

MAR 14:49  I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but
 the scriptures must be fulfilled.

MAR 14:50  And they all forsook him, and fled.

MAR 14:51  And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth
 cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:

MAR 14:52  And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

MAR 14:53  And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were
 assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

MAR 14:54  And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high
 priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

MAR 14:55  And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against
 Jesus to put him to death; and found none.

MAR 14:56  For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed
 not together.

MAR 14:57  And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,

MAR 14:58  We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with
 hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.

MAR 14:59  But neither so did their witness agree together.

MAR 14:60  And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying,
 Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

MAR 14:61  But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest
 asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

MAR 14:62  And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the
 right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

MAR 14:63  Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any
 further witnesses?

MAR 14:64  Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned
 him to be guilty of death.

MAR 14:65  And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet
 him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the
 palms of their hands.

MAR 14:66  And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the
 maids of the high priest:

MAR 14:67  And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and
 said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

MAR 14:68  But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou
 sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.

MAR 14:69  And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by,
 This is one of them.

MAR 14:70  And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said
 again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and
 thy speech agreeth thereto.

MAR 14:71  But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of
 whom ye speak.

MAR 14:72  And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word
 that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me
 thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

MAR 15:1  And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation
 with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and
 carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

MAR 15:2  And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering
 said unto them, Thou sayest it.

MAR 15:3  And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered
 nothing.

MAR 15:4  And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold
 how many things they witness against thee.

MAR 15:5  But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

MAR 15:6  Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they
 desired.

MAR 15:7  And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had
 made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

MAR 15:8  And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had
 ever done unto them.

MAR 15:9  But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the
 King of the Jews?

MAR 15:10  For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

MAR 15:11  But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather
 release Barabbas unto them.

MAR 15:12  And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that
 I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?

MAR 15:13  And they cried out again, Crucify him.

MAR 15:14  Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they
 cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

MAR 15:15  And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto
 them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

MAR 15:16  And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and
 they call together the whole band.

MAR 15:17  And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and
 put it about his head,

MAR 15:18  And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

MAR 15:19  And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon
 him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

MAR 15:20  And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and
 put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

MAR 15:21  And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out
 of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

MAR 15:22  And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being
 interpreted, The place of a skull.

MAR 15:23  And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received
 it not.

MAR 15:24  And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting
 lots upon them, what every man should take.

MAR 15:25  And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

MAR 15:26  And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING
 OF THE JEWS.

MAR 15:27  And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right
 hand, and the other on his left.

MAR 15:28  And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered
 with the transgressors.

MAR 15:29  And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and
 saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,

MAR 15:30  Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

MAR 15:31  Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with
 the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

MAR 15:32  Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we
 may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

MAR 15:33  And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole
 land until the ninth hour.

MAR 15:34  And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi,
 Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast
 thou forsaken me?

MAR 15:35  And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he
 calleth Elias.

MAR 15:36  And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a
 reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will
 come to take him down.

MAR 15:37  And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

MAR 15:38  And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the
 bottom.

MAR 15:39  And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so
 cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

MAR 15:40  There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary
 Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

MAR 15:41  (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto
 him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.

MAR 15:42  And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that
 is, the day before the sabbath,

MAR 15:43  Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited
 for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the
 body of Jesus.

MAR 15:44  And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him
 the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.

MAR 15:45  And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

MAR 15:46  And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the
 linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a
 stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

MAR 15:47  And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was
 laid.

MAR 16:1  And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of
 James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint
 him.

MAR 16:2  And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came
 unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

MAR 16:3  And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from
 the door of the sepulchre?

MAR 16:4  And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it
 was very great.

MAR 16:5  And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the
 right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

MAR 16:6  And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth,
 which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they
 laid him.

MAR 16:7  But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before
 you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

MAR 16:8  And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they
 trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they
 were afraid.

MAR 16:9  Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared
 first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.

MAR 16:10  And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned
 and wept.

MAR 16:11  And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen
 of her, believed not.

MAR 16:12  After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they
 walked, and went into the country.

MAR 16:13  And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they
 them.

MAR 16:14  Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and
 upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they
 believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

MAR 16:15  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the
 gospel to every creature.

MAR 16:16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that
 believeth not shall be damned.

MAR 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall
 they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

MAR 16:18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it
 shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall
 recover.

MAR 16:19  So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into
 heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

MAR 16:20  And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with
 them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
