+
+THE HOLY GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO ST. MARK
+
+St. Mark, the disciple and interpreter of St. Peter (saith St. Jerome),
+according to what he heard from Peter himself, wrote at Rome a brief
+Gospel at the request of the Brethren, about ten years after our lord's
+Ascension; which when Peter had heard, he approved of it and with his
+authority published it to the church to be read. Baronius and others say
+that the original was written in Latin: but the more general opinion is
+that the Evangelist wrote it in Greek.
+
+
+Mark Chapter 1
+
+The preaching of John the Baptist. Christ is baptized by him. He calls
+his disciples and works many miracles.
+
+1:1. The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
+
+1:2. As it is written in Isaias the prophet: Behold I send my angel
+before thy face, who shall prepare the way before thee.
+
+1:3. A voice of one crying in the desert: Prepare ye the way of the
+Lord; make straight his paths.
+
+1:4. John was in the desert, baptizing and preaching the baptism of
+penance, unto remission of sins.
+
+1:5. And there went out to him all the country of Judea and all they of
+Jerusalem and were baptized by him in the river of Jordan, confessing
+their sins.
+
+1:6. And John was clothed camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his
+loins: and he ate locusts and wild honey.
+
+1:7. And he preached, saying: There cometh after me one mightier than I,
+the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
+
+1:8. I have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the
+Holy Ghost.
+
+1:9. And it came to pass, in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of
+Galilee and was baptized by John in Jordan.
+
+1:10. And forthwith coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens open
+and the Spirit as a dove descending and remaining on him.
+
+1:11. And there came a voice from heaven: Thou art my beloved Son; in
+thee I am well pleased.
+
+1:12. And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the desert.
+
+1:13. And he was in the desert forty days and forty nights, and was
+tempted by Satan. And he was with beasts: and the angels ministered to
+him.
+
+1:14. And after that John was delivered up, Jesus came in Galilee,
+preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
+
+1:15. And saying: The time is accomplished and the kingdom of God is at
+hand. Repent and believe the gospel:
+
+1:16. And passing by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his
+brother, casting nets into the sea for they were fishermen.
+
+1:17. And Jesus said to them: Come after me; and I will make you to
+become fishers of men.
+
+1:18. And immediately leaving their nets, they followed him.
+
+1:19. And going on from thence a little farther, he saw James the son of
+Zebedee and John his brother, who also were mending their nets in the
+ship:
+
+1:20. And forthwith he called them. And leaving their father Zebedee in
+the ship with his hired men, they followed him.
+
+1:21. And they entered into Capharnaum: and forthwith upon the sabbath
+days going into the synagogue, he taught them.
+
+1:22. And they were astonished at his doctrine. For he was teaching them
+as one having power, 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: What have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou
+come to destroy us? I know who thou art, the Holy One of God.
+
+1:25. And Jesus threatened him, saying: Speak no more, and go out of the
+man.
+
+1:26. And the unclean spirit, tearing him and crying out with a loud
+voice, went out of him.
+
+1:27. And they were all amazed insomuch that they questioned among
+themselves, saying: What thing is this? What is this new doctrine? For
+with power he commandeth even the unclean spirits: and they obey him.
+
+1:28. And the fame of him was spread forthwith into all the country of
+Galilee.
+
+1:29. And immediately going out of the synagogue they came into the
+house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
+
+1:30. And Simon's wife's mother lay in a fit of a fever: and forthwith
+they tell him of her.
+
+1:31. And coming to her, he lifted her up, taking her by the hand; and
+immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
+
+1:32. And when it was evening, after sunset, they brought to him all
+that were ill and 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 troubled with divers diseases. And
+he cast out many devils: and he suffered them not to speak, because they
+knew him.
+
+1:35. And rising very early, going out, he went into a desert place: and
+there he prayed.
+
+1:36. And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
+
+1:37. And when they had found him, they said to him: All seek for thee.
+
+1:38. And he saith to them: Let us go into the neighbouring towns and
+cities, that I may preach there also; for to this purpose am I come.
+
+1:39. And he was preaching in their synagogues and in all Galilee and
+casting out devils.
+
+1:40. And there came a leper to him, beseeching him and kneeling down,
+said to him: If thou wilt thou canst make me clean.
+
+1:41. And Jesus, having compassion on him, stretched forth his hand and
+touching him saith to him: I will. Be thou made clean.
+
+1:42. And when he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him:
+and he was made clean.
+
+1:43. And he strictly charged him and forthwith sent him away.
+
+1:44. And he saith to him: See thou tell no one; but go, shew thyself to
+the high priest and offer for thy cleansing the things that Moses
+commanded, for a testimony to them.
+
+1:45. But he being gone out, began to publish and to blaze abroad the
+word: so that he could not openly go into the city, but was without in
+desert places. And they flocked to him from all sides.
+
+Mark Chapter 2
+
+Christ heals the sick of the palsy. He calls Matthew and excuses his
+disciples.
+
+2:1. And again he entered into Capharnaum after some days.
+
+2:2. And it was heard that he was in the house. And many came together,
+so that there was no room: no, not even at the door. And he spoke to
+them the word.
+
+2:3. And they came to him, bringing one sick of the palsy, who was
+carried by four.
+
+2:4. And when they could not offer him unto him for the multitude, they
+uncovered the roof where he was: and opening it, they let down the bed
+wherein the man sick of the palsy lay.
+
+2:5. And when Jesus had seen their faith, he saith to the sick of the
+palsy: Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
+
+2:6. And there were some of the scribes sitting there and thinking in
+their hearts:
+
+2:7. Why doth this man speak thus? He blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins,
+but God only?
+
+2:8. Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit that they so thought
+within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your
+hearts?
+
+2:9. Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are
+forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed and walk?
+
+2:10. But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to
+forgive sins (he saith to the sick of the palsy):
+
+2:11. I say to thee: Arise. Take up thy bed and go into thy house.
+
+2:12. And immediately he arose and, taking up his bed, went his way in
+the sight of all: so that all wondered and glorified God, saying: We
+never saw the like.
+
+2:13. And he went forth again to the sea side: and all the multitude
+came to him. And he taught them.
+
+2:14. And when he was passing by, he saw Levi, the son of Alpheus,
+sitting at the receipt of custom; and he saith to him: Follow me. And
+rising up, he followed him.
+
+2:15. And it came to pass as he sat at meat in his house, many Publicans
+and sinners sat down together with Jesus and his disciples. For they,
+with Jesus who also followed him. For they were many, who also followed
+him.
+
+2:16. And the scribes and the Pharisees, seeing that he ate with
+publicans and sinners, said to his disciples: Why doth your master eat
+and drink with publicans and sinners?
+
+2:17. Jesus hearing this, saith to them: They that are well have no need
+of a physician, but they that are sick. For I came not to call the just,
+but sinners.
+
+2:18. And the disciples of John and the Pharisees used to fast. And
+they come and say to him: Why do the disciples of John and of the
+Pharisees fast; but thy disciples do not fast?
+
+2:19. And Jesus saith to them: Can the children of the marriage fast, as
+long as the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom
+with them, they cannot fast.
+
+2:20. But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away
+from them: and then they shall fast in those days.
+
+2:21. No man seweth a piece of raw cloth to an old garment: otherwise
+the new piecing taketh away from the old, and there is made a greater
+rent.
+
+2:22. And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: otherwise the wine
+will burst the bottles, and both the wine will be spilled and the
+bottles will be lost. But new wine must be put into new bottles.
+
+2:23. And it came to pass again, as the Lord walked through the corn
+fields on the sabbath, that his disciples began to go forward and to
+pluck the ears of corn.
+
+2:24. And the Pharisees said to him: Behold, why do they on the sabbath
+day that which is not lawful?
+
+2:25. And he said to them: Have you never read what David did when he
+had need and was hungry, himself and they that were with him?
+
+2:26. How he went into the house of God, under Abiathar the high priest,
+and did eat the loaves of proposition, which was not lawful to eat but
+for the priests, and gave to them who were with him?
+
+2:27. And he said to them: The sabbath was made for man, and not man for
+the sabbath.
+
+2:28. Therefore the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath also.
+
+Mark Chapter 3
+
+Christ heals the withered hand. He chooses the twelve. He confutes the
+blasphemy of the Pharisees.
+
+3:1. And he entered again into the synagogue: and there was a man there
+who had a withered hand.
+
+3:2. And they watched him whether he would heal on the sabbath days,
+that they might accuse him.
+
+3:3. And he said to the man who had the withered hand: Stand up in the
+midst.
+
+3:4. And he saith to them: Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days,
+or to do evil? To save life, or to destroy? But they held their peace.
+
+3:5. And looking round about on them with anger, being grieved for the
+blindness of their hearts, he saith to the man: Stretch forth thy hand.
+And he stretched it forth: and his hand was restored unto him.
+
+3:6. And the Pharisees going out, immediately made a consultation with
+the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
+
+3:7. But Jesus retired with his disciples to the sea; and a great
+multitude followed him from Galilee and Judea,
+
+3:8. And from Jerusalem, and from Idumea and from beyond the Jordan. And
+they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, hearing the things which
+he did, came to him.
+
+3:9. And he spoke to his disciples that a small ship should wait on him,
+because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.
+
+3:10. For he healed many, so that they pressed upon him for to touch
+him, as many as had evils.
+
+3:11. And the unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him:
+and they cried, saying:
+
+3:12. Thou art the Son of God. And he strictly charged them that they
+should not make him known.
+
+3:13. And going up into a mountain, he called unto him whom he would
+himself: and they came to him.
+
+3:14. And he made that twelve should be with him, and that he might send
+them to preach.
+
+3:15. And he gave them power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils.
+
+3:16. And to Simon he gave the name Peter:
+
+3:17. And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and
+he named them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder.
+
+3:18. And Andrew and Philip, and Bartholomew and Matthew, and Thomas and
+James of Alpheus, and Thaddeus and Simon the Cananean:
+
+3:19. And Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
+
+3:20. And they come to a house, and the multitude cometh together again,
+so that they could not so much as eat bread.
+
+3:21. And when his friends had heard of it, they went out to lay hold on
+him. For they said: He is become mad.
+
+3:22. And the scribes who were come down from Jerusalem, said: He hath
+Beelzebub, and by the prince of devils he casteth out devils.
+
+3:23. And after he had called them together, he said to them in
+parables: How can Satan cast out Satan?
+
+3:24. And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot
+stand.
+
+3:25. And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
+
+3:26. And if Satan be risen up against himself, he is divided, and
+cannot stand, but hath an end.
+
+3:27. No man can enter into the house of a strong man and rob him of his
+goods, unless he first bind the strong man, and then shall he plunder
+his house.
+
+3:28. Amen I say to you that all sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of
+men, and the blasphemies wherewith they shall blaspheme:
+
+3:29. But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost, shall never
+have forgiveness, but shall be guilty of an everlasting sin.
+
+3:30. Because they said: He hath an unclean spirit.
+
+3:31. And his mother and his brethren came; and standing without, sent
+unto him, calling him.
+
+3:32. And the multitude sat about him; and they say to him: Behold thy
+mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.
+
+3:33. And answering them, he said: Who is my mother and my brethren?
+
+3:34. And looking round about on them who sat about him, he saith:
+Behold my mother and my brethren.
+
+3:35. For whosoever shall do the will of God, he is my brother, and my
+sister, and mother.
+
+Mark Chapter 4
+
+The parable of the sower. Christ stills the tempest at sea.
+
+4:1. And again he began to teach by the sea side; and a great multitude
+was gathered together unto him, so that he went up into a ship and sat
+in the sea: and all the multitude was upon the land by the sea side.
+
+4:2. And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them in
+his doctrine:
+
+4:3. Hear ye: Behold, the sower went out to sow.
+
+4:4. And whilst he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the birds of
+the air came and ate it up.
+
+4:5. And other some fell upon stony ground, where it had not much earth;
+and it shot up immediately, because it had no depth of earth.
+
+4:6. And when the sun was risen, it was scorched; and because it had no
+root, it withered away.
+
+4:7. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up, and choked it,
+and it yielded no fruit.
+
+4:8. And some fell upon good ground; and brought forth fruit that grew
+up, and increased and yielded, one thirty, another sixty, and another a
+hundred.
+
+4:9. And he said: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
+
+4:10. And when he was alone, the twelve that were with him asked him the
+parable.
+
+4:11. And he said to them: To you it is given to know the mystery of the
+kingdom of God: but to them that are without, all things are done in
+parables:
+
+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.
+
+That seeing they may see, etc... in punishment of their wilfully
+shutting their eyes, (St. Matt. 13. 15,) God justly withdrew those
+lights and graces, which otherwise he would have given them, for their
+effectual conversion.
+
+4:13. And he saith to them: Are you ignorant of this, parable? and how
+shall you know all parables?
+
+4:14. He that soweth, soweth the word.
+
+4:15. And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown, and as
+soon as they have heard, immediately Satan cometh and taketh away the
+word that was sown in their hearts.
+
+4:16. And these likewise are they that are sown on the stony ground: who
+when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
+
+4:17. And they have no root in themselves, but are only for a time: and
+then when tribulation and persecution ariseth for the word they are
+presently scandalized.
+
+4:18. And others there are who are sown among thorns: these are they
+that hear the word,
+
+4:19. And the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and
+the lusts after other things entering in choke the word, and it is made
+fruitless.
+
+4:20. And these are they who are sown upon the good ground, who hear the
+word, and receive it, and yield fruit, the one thirty, another sixty,
+and another a hundred.
+
+4:21. And he said to them: Doth a candle come in to be put under a
+bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?
+
+4:22. For there is nothing hid, which shall not be made manifest:
+neither was it made secret, but that it may come abroad.
+
+4:23. If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
+
+4:24. And he said to them: Take heed what you hear. In what measure you
+shall mete, it shall be measured to you again, and more shall be given
+to you.
+
+4:25. For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not,
+that also which he hath shall be taken away from him.
+
+4:26. And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast
+seed into the earth,
+
+4:27. And should sleep, and rise, night and day, and the seed should
+spring, and grow up whilst he knoweth not.
+
+4:28. For the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade,
+then the ear, afterwards the full corn in the ear.
+
+4:29. And when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the
+sickle, because the harvest is come.
+
+4:30. And he said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? or to what
+parable shall we compare it?
+
+4:31. It is as a grain of mustard seed: which when it is sown in the
+earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth:
+
+4:32. And when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all
+herbs, and shooteth out great branches, so that the birds of the air may
+dwell under the shadow thereof.
+
+4:33. And with many such parables, he spoke to them the word, according
+as they were able to hear.
+
+4:34. And without parable he did not speak unto them; but apart, he
+explained all things to his disciples.
+
+4:35. And he saith to them that day, when evening was come: Let us pass
+over to the other side.
+
+4:36. And sending away the multitude, they take him even as he was in
+the ship: and there were other ships with him.
+
+4:37. And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the
+ship, so that the ship was filled.
+
+4:38. And he was in the hinder part of the ship, sleeping upon a pillow;
+and they awake him, and say to him: Master, doth, it not concern thee
+that we perish?
+
+4:39. And rising up, he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea: Peace, be
+still. And the wind ceased: and there was made a great calm.
+
+4:40. And he said to them: Why are you fearful? have you not faith yet?
+And they feared exceedingly: and they said one to another: Who is this
+(thinkest thou) that both wind and sea obey him?
+
+Mark Chapter 5
+
+Christ casts out a legion of devils: he heals the issue of blood, and
+raises the daughter of Jairus to life.
+
+5:1. And they came over the strait of the sea, into the country of the
+Gerasens.
+
+5:2. And as he went out of the ship, immediately there met him out of
+the monuments a man with an unclean spirit,
+
+5:3. Who had his dwelling in the tombs, and no man now could bind him,
+not even with chains.
+
+5:4. For having been often bound with fetters and chains, he had burst
+the chains, and broken the fetters in pieces, and no one could tame him.
+
+5:5. And he was always day and night in the monuments and in the
+mountains, crying and cutting himself with stones.
+
+5:6. And seeing Jesus afar off, he ran and adored him.
+
+5:7. And crying with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with thee,
+Jesus the Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God that thou
+torment me not.
+
+5:8. For he said unto him: Go out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
+
+5:9. And he asked him: What is thy name? And he saith to him: My name is
+Legion, for we are many.
+
+5:10. And he besought him much, that he would not drive him away out of
+the country.
+
+5:11. And there was there near the mountain a great herd of swine,
+feeding.
+
+5:12. And the spirits besought him, saying: Send us into the swine, that
+we may enter into them.
+
+5:13. And Jesus immediately gave them leave. And the unclean spirits
+going out, entered into the swine: and the herd with great violence was
+carried headlong into the sea, being about two thousand, were stifled in
+the sea.
+
+5:14. And they that fed them fled, and told it in the city and in the
+fields. And they went out to see what was done:
+
+5:15. And they came to Jesus, and they see him that was troubled with
+the devil, sitting, clothed, and well in his wits, and they were afraid.
+
+5:16. And they that had seen it, told them, in what manner he had been
+dealt with who had the devil; and concerning the swine.
+
+5:17. And they began to pray him that he would depart from their coasts.
+
+5:18. And when he went up into the ship, he that had been troubled with
+the devil, began to beseech him that he might be with him.
+
+5:19. And he admitted him not, but saith him: Go into thy house to thy
+friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and
+hath had mercy thee.
+
+5:20. And he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great
+things Jesus had done for him: and all men wondered.
+
+5:21. And when Jesus had passed again in the ship over the strait, a
+great multitude assembled together unto him, and he was nigh unto the
+sea.
+
+5:22. And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue named Jairus:
+and seeing him, falleth down at his feet.
+
+5:23. And he besought him much, saying: My daughter is at the point of
+death, come, lay thy hand upon her, that she may be safe, and may live.
+
+5:24. And he went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they
+thronged him.
+
+5:25. And a woman who was under an issue of blood twelve years,
+
+5:26. And had suffered many things from many physicians; and had spent
+all that she had, and was nothing the better, but rather worse,
+
+5:27. When she had heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind him, and
+touched his garment.
+
+5:28. For she said: If I shall touch but his garment, I shall be whole.
+
+5:29. And forthwith the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt
+in her body that she was healed of the evil.
+
+5:30. And immediately Jesus knowing in himself the virtue that had
+proceeded from him, turning to the multitude, said: Who hath touched my
+garments?
+
+5:31. And his disciples said to him: Thou seest the multitude thronging
+thee, and sayest thou who hath touched me?
+
+5:32. And he looked about to see her who had done this.
+
+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.
+
+5:34. And he said to her: Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go
+in peace, and be thou whole of thy disease.
+
+5:35. While he was yet speaking, some come from the ruler of the
+synagogue's house, saying: Thy daughter is dead: why dost thou trouble
+the master any further?
+
+5:36. But Jesus having heard the word that was spoken, saith to the
+ruler of the synagogue: Fear not, only believe.
+
+5:37. And he admitted not any man to follow him, but Peter, and James,
+and John the brother of James.
+
+5:38. And they cone to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he
+seeth a tumult, and people weeping and wailing much.
+
+5:39. And going in, he saith to them Why make you this ado, and weep?
+the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
+
+5:40. And they laughed him to scorn. But he having put them all out,
+taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with
+him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.
+
+5:41. And taking the damsel by the hand, he saith to her: Talitha cumi,
+which is, being interpreted: Damsel (I say to thee) arise.
+
+5:42. And immediately the damsel rose up, and walked: and she was twelve
+years old: and they were astonished with a great astonishment.
+
+5:43. And he charged them strictly that no man should know it: and
+commanded that something should be given her to eat.
+
+Mark Chapter 6
+
+Christ teaches at Nazareth: he sends forth the twelve apostles: he feeds
+five thousand with five loaves; and walks upon the sea.
+
+6:1. And going out from thence, he went into his own country; and his
+disciples followed him.
+
+6:2. And when the Sabbath was come, he began to teach in the synagogue:
+and many hearing him were in admiration at his doctrine, saying: How
+came this man by all these things? and what wisdom is this that is given
+to him, and such mighty works as are wrought by his hands?
+
+6:3. Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James,
+and Joseph, and Jude, and Simon? are not also his sisters here with us?
+And they were scandalized in regard of him.
+
+6:4. And Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honour, but in his
+own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred.
+
+6:5. And he could not do any miracles there, only that he cured a few
+that were sick, laying his hands upon them.
+
+He could not... Not for want of power, but because he would not work
+miracles in favour of obstinate and incredulous people, who were
+unworthy of such favours.
+
+6:6. And he wondered because of their unbelief, and he went through the
+villages round about teaching.
+
+6:7. And he called the twelve; and began to send them two and two, and
+gave them power over unclean spirits.
+
+6:8. And he commanded them that they should take nothing for the way,
+but a staff only; no scrip, no bread, nor money in their purse,
+
+6:9. But to be shod with sandals, and that they should not put on two
+coats.
+
+6:10. And he said to them: Wheresoever you shall enter into an house,
+there abide till you depart from that place.
+
+6:11. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you; going forth
+from thence, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony to them.
+
+6:12. And going forth they preached men should do penance:
+
+6:13. And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that
+were sick, and healed them.
+
+6:14. And king Herod heard, (for his name was made manifest,) and he
+said: John the Baptist is risen again from dead, and therefore mighty
+works shew forth themselves in him.
+
+6:15. And others said: It is Elias. But others said: It is a prophet, as
+one of the prophets.
+
+6:16. Which Herod hearing, said: John whom I beheaded, he is risen again
+from the dead.
+
+6:17. For Herod himself had sent and apprehended John, and bound him
+prison for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because
+he had married her.
+
+6:18. For John said to Herod: It is not lawful for thee to have thy
+brother's wife.
+
+6:19. Now Herodias laid snares for him: and was desirous to put him to
+death and could not.
+
+6:20. For Herod feared John, knowing him to be a just and holy man: and
+kept him, and when he heard him, did many things: and he heard him
+willingly.
+
+And kept him... That is, from the designs of Herodias; and for fear of
+the people, would not put him to death, though she sought it; and
+through her daughter she effected her wish.
+
+6:21. And when a convenient day was come, Herod made a supper for his
+birthday, for the princes, and tribunes, and chief men of Galilee.
+
+6:22. And when the daughter of the same Herodias had come in, and had
+danced, and pleased Herod, and them that were at table with him, the
+king said to the damsel: Ask of me what thou wilt, and I will give it
+thee.
+
+6:23. And he swore to her: Whatsoever thou shalt ask I will give thee,
+though it be the half of my kingdom.
+
+6:24. Who when she was gone out, said to her mother, What shall I ask?
+But her mother said: The head of John the Baptist.
+
+6:25. And when she was come in immediately with haste to the king, she
+asked, saying: I will that forthwith thou give me in a dish, the head of
+John the Baptist.
+
+6:26. And the king was struck sad. Yet because of his oath, and because
+of them that were with him at table, he would not displease her:
+
+6:27. But sending an executioner, he commanded that his head should be
+brought in a dish.
+
+6:28. And he beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head in a dish:
+and gave to the damsel, and the damsel gave it her mother.
+
+6:29. Which his disciples hearing came, and took his body, and laid it
+in a tomb.
+
+6:30. And the apostles coming together unto Jesus, related to him all
+things that they had done and taught.
+
+6:31. And he said to them: Come apart into a desert place, and rest a
+little. For there were many coming and going: and they had not so much
+as time to eat.
+
+6:32. And going up into a ship, they went into a desert place apart.
+
+6:33. And they saw them going away, and many knew: and they ran flocking
+thither foot from all the cities, and were there before them.
+
+6:34. And Jesus going out saw a great multitude: and he had compassion
+on them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and he began
+to teach them many things.
+
+6:35. And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came to him,
+saying: This is a desert place, and the hour is now past:
+
+6:36. Send them away, that going into the next villages and towns, they
+may buy themselves meat to eat.
+
+6:37. And he answering said to them: Give you them to eat. And they said
+to him: Let us go and buy bread for two hundred pence, and we will give
+them to eat.
+
+6:38. And he saith to them: How many loaves have you? go and see. And
+when they knew, they say: Five, and two fishes.
+
+6:39. And he commanded them that they should make them all sit down by
+companies upon the green grass.
+
+6:40. And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
+
+6:41. And when he had taken the five loaves, and the two fishes: looking
+up to heaven, he blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave to his
+disciples to set before them: and the two fishes he divided among them
+all.
+
+6:42. And they all did eat, and had their fill.
+
+6:43. And they took up the leavings, twelve full baskets of fragments,
+and of the fishes.
+
+6:44. And they that did eat, were five thousand men.
+
+6:45. And immediately he obliged his disciples to go up into the ship,
+that they might go before him over the water to Bethsaida, whilst he
+dismissed the people.
+
+6:46. And when he had dismissed them, he went up to the mountain to
+pray,
+
+6:47. And when it was late, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and
+himself alone on the land.
+
+6:48. And seeing them labouring in rowing, (for the wind was against
+them,) and about the fourth watch of the night, he cometh to them
+walking upon the sea, and he would have passed by them.
+
+6:49. But they seeing him walking upon the sea, thought it was an
+apparition, and they cried out.
+
+6:50. For they all saw him, and were troubled bled. And immediately he
+spoke with them, and said to them: Have a good heart, it is I, fear ye
+not.
+
+6:51. And he went up to them into the ship, and the wind ceased: and
+they were far more astonished within themselves:
+
+6:52. For they understood not concerning the loaves; for their heart was
+blinded.
+
+6:53. And when they had passed over, they came into the land of
+Genezareth, and set to the shore.
+
+6:54. And when they were gone out of the ship, immediately they knew
+him:
+
+6:55. And running through that whole country, they began to carry about
+in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.
+
+6:56. And whithersoever he entered, into towns or into villages or
+cities, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they
+might touch but the hem of his garment: and as many as touched him were
+made whole.
+
+Mark Chapter 7
+
+Christ rebukes the Pharisees. He heals the daughter of the woman of
+Chanaan; and the man that was deaf and dumb.
+
+7:1. And there assembled together unto him the Pharisees and some of the
+scribes, coming from Jerusalem.
+
+7:2. And when they had seen some of his disciples eat bread with common,
+that is, with unwashed hands, they found fault.
+
+7:3. For the Pharisees and all the Jews eat not without often washing
+their hands, holding the tradition of the ancients.
+
+7:4. And when they come from the market, unless they be washed, they eat
+not: and many other things there are that have been delivered to them to
+observe, the washings of cups and of pots and of brazen vessels and of
+beds.
+
+7:5. And the Pharisees and scribes asked him: Why do not thy disciples
+walk according to the tradition of the ancients, but they eat bread with
+common hands?
+
+7:6. But he answering, said to them: Well did Isaias prophesy of you
+hypocrites, as it is written: This people honoureth me with their lips,
+but their heart is far from me.
+
+7:7. And in vain do they worship me, teaching doctrines and precepts of
+men.
+
+Doctrines and precepts of men... See the annotations, Matt. 15. 9, 11.
+
+7:8. For leaving the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men,
+the washing of pots and of cups: and many other things you do like to
+these.
+
+7:9. And he said to them: Well do you make void the commandment of God,
+that you may keep your own tradition.
+
+7:10. For Moses said: Honour thy father and thy mother. And He that
+shall curse father or mother, dying let him die.
+
+7:11. But you say: If a man shall say to his father or mother, Corban
+(which is a gift) whatsoever is from me shall profit thee.
+
+7:12. And further you suffer him not to do any thing for his father or
+mother,
+
+7:13. Making void the word of God by your own tradition, which you have
+given forth. And many other such like things you do.
+
+7:14. And calling again the multitude unto him, he said to them: Hear ye
+me all and understand.
+
+7:15. There is nothing from without a man that entering into him can
+defile him. But the things which come from a man, those are they that
+defile a man.
+
+7:16. If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
+
+7:17. And when he was come into the house from the multitude, his
+disciples asked him the parable.
+
+7:18. And he saith to them: So are you also without knowledge?
+Understand you not that every thing from without entering into a man
+cannot defile him:
+
+7:19. Because it entereth not into his heart but goeth into his belly
+and goeth out into the privy, purging all meats?
+
+7:20. But he said that the things which come out from a man, they defile
+a man.
+
+7:21. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
+adulteries, fornications, murders,
+
+7:22. Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil
+eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.
+
+7:23. All these evil things come from within and defile a man.
+
+7:24. And rising from thence he went into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon:
+and entering into a house, he would that no man should know it. And he
+could not be hid.
+
+7:25. For a woman as soon as she heard of him, whose daughter had an
+unclean spirit, came in and fell down at his feet.
+
+7:26. For the woman was a Gentile, a Syrophenician born. And she
+besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
+
+7:27. Who said to her: suffer first the children to be filled: for it is
+not good to take the bread of the children and cast it to the dogs.
+
+7:28. But she answered and said to him: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also
+eat under the table of the crumbs of the children.
+
+7:29. And he said to her: For this saying, go thy way. The devil is gone
+out of thy daughter.
+
+7:30. And when she was come into her house, she found the girl lying
+upon the bed and that the devil was gone out.
+
+7:31. And again going out of the coasts of Tyre, he came by Sidon to the
+sea of Galilee, through the midst the of the coasts of Decapolis.
+
+7:32. And they bring to him one deaf and dumb: and they besought him
+that he would lay his hand upon him.
+
+7:33. And taking him from the multitude apart, he put his fingers into
+his ears: and spitting, he touched his tongue.
+
+7:34. And looking up to heaven, he groaned and said to him: Ephpheta,
+which is, Be thou opened.
+
+7:35. And immediately his ears were opened and the string of his tongue
+was loosed and he spoke right.
+
+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 did they publish it.
+
+7:37. And so much the more did they wonder, saying: He hath done all
+things well. He hath made both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak.
+
+Mark Chapter 8
+
+Christ feeds four thousand. He gives sight to a blind man. He foretells
+his passion.
+
+8:1. In those days again, when there was great multitude and they had
+nothing to eat; calling his disciples together, he saith to them:
+
+8:2. I have compassion on the multitude, for behold they have now been
+with me three days and have nothing to eat.
+
+8:3. And if I shall send them away fasting to their home, they will
+faint in the way: for some of them came from afar off.
+
+8:4. And his disciples answered him: From whence can any one fill them
+here with bread in the wilderness?
+
+8:5. And he asked them: How many loaves have ye? Who said: Seven.
+
+8:6. And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground. And taking
+the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke and gave to his disciples for
+to set before them. And they set them before the people.
+
+8:7. And they had a few little fishes: and he blessed them and commanded
+them to be set before them.
+
+8:8. And they did eat and were filled: and they took up that which was
+left of the fragments, seven baskets.
+
+8:9. And they that had eaten were about four thousand. And he sent them
+away.
+
+8:10. And immediately going up into a ship with his disciples, he came
+into the parts of Dalmanutha.
+
+8:11. And the Pharisees came forth and began to question with him,
+asking him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
+
+8:12. And sighing deeply in spirit, he saith: Why doth this generation
+seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, a sign shall not be given to this
+generation.
+
+8:13. And leaving them, he went up again into the ship and passed to the
+other side of the water.
+
+8:14. And they forgot to take bread: and they had but one loaf with them
+in the ship.
+
+8:15. And he charged them saying: Take heed and beware of the leaven of
+the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herod.
+
+8:16. And they reasoned among themselves, saying: Because we have no
+bread.
+
+8:17. Which Jesus knowing, saith to them: Why do you reason, because you
+have no bread? Do you not yet know nor understand? Have you still your
+heart blinded?
+
+8:18. Having eyes, see you not? And having ears, hear you not? Neither
+do you remember?
+
+8:19. When I broke the five loves among five thousand, how many baskets
+full of fragments took you up? They say to him: Twelve.
+
+8:20. When also the seven loaves among four thousand, how many baskets
+of fragments took you up? And they say to him: Seven.
+
+8:21. And he said to them: How do you not yet understand?
+
+8:22. And they came to Bethsaida: and they bring to him a blind man. And
+they besought him that he would touch him.
+
+8:23. And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him out of the town.
+And spitting upon his eyes, laying his hands on him, he asked him if he
+saw any thing.
+
+8:24. And looking up, he said: I see men, as it were trees, walking.
+
+8:25. After that again he laid his hands upon his eyes: and he began to
+see and was restored, so that he saw all things clearly.
+
+8:26. And he sent him into his house, saying: Go into thy house, and if
+thou enter into the town, tell nobody.
+
+8:27. And Jesus went out, and his disciples into the towns of Caesarea
+Philippi. And in the way, he asked his disciples, saying to them: Whom
+do men say that I am?
+
+8:28. Who answered him, saying: John the Baptist; but some Elias, and
+others as one of the prophets.
+
+8:29. Then he saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Peter
+answering said to him: Thou art the Christ.
+
+8:30. And he strictly charged them that they should not tell any man of
+him.
+
+8:31. And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many
+things and be rejected by the ancients and by the high priests and the
+scribes: and be killed and after three days rise again.
+
+8:32. And he spoke the word openly. And Peter taking him began to rebuke
+him.
+
+8:33. Who turning about and seeing his disciples, threatened Peter,
+saying: Go behind me, Satan, because thou savourest not the things that
+are of God but that are of men.
+
+8:34. And calling the multitude together with his disciples, he said to
+them: If any man will follow me, let him deny himself and take up his
+cross and follow me.
+
+8:35. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever
+shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel shall save it.
+
+8:36. For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and
+suffer the loss of his soul?
+
+8:37. Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul:
+
+8:38. For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, in this
+adulterous and sinful generation: the Son of man also will be ashamed of
+him, when he shall come in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
+
+8:39. And he said to them: Amen f say to you that there are some of them
+that stand here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of
+God coming in power.
+
+Mark Chapter 9
+
+Christ is transfigured. He casts out the dumb spirit. He teaches
+humility and to avoid scandal.
+
+9:1. 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 was
+transfigured before them.
+
+9:2. And his garments became shining and exceeding white as snow, so as
+no fuller upon earth can make white.
+
+9:3. And there appeared to them Elias with Moses: and they were talking
+with Jesus.
+
+9:4. And Peter answering, said to Jesus: Rabbi, it is good for us to be
+here. And let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for
+Moses, and one for Elias.
+
+9:5. For he knew not what he said: for they were struck with fear.
+
+9:6. And there was a cloud overshadowing them. And a voice came out of
+the cloud, saying: This is my most beloved Son. Hear ye him.
+
+9:7. And immediately looking about, they saw no man any more, but Jesus
+only with them.
+
+9:8. And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them not to
+tell any man what things they had seen, till the Son of man shall be
+risen again from the dead.
+
+9:9. And they kept the word to themselves; questioning together what
+that should mean, when he shall be risen from the dead.
+
+9:10. And they asked him, saying: Why then do the Pharisees and scribes
+say that Elias must come first?
+
+9:11. Who answering, said to then: Elias, when he shall come first,
+shall restore all things; and as it is written of the Son of man that he
+must suffer many things and be despised.
+
+9:12. But I say to you that Elias also is come (and they have done to
+him whatsoever they would), as it is written of him.
+
+9:13. And coming to his disciples he saw a great multitude about them
+and the scribes disputing with them.
+
+9:14. And presently all the people, seeing Jesus, were astonished and
+struck with fear: and running to him, they saluted him.
+
+9:15. And he asked them: What do you question about among you?
+
+9:16. And one of the multitude, answering, said: Master, I have brought
+my son to thee, having a dumb spirit.
+
+9:17. Who, wheresoever he taketh him, dasheth him: and he foameth and
+gnasheth with the teeth and pineth away. And I spoke to thy disciples to
+cast him out: and they could not.
+
+9:18. Who answering them, said: O incredulous generation, how long shall
+I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him unto me.
+
+9:19. And they brought him. And when he had seen him, immediately the
+spirit troubled him and being thrown down upon the ground, he rolled
+about foaming.
+
+9:20. And he asked his father: How long time is it since this hath
+happened unto him? But he sad: From his infancy.
+
+9:21. And oftentimes hath he cast him into the fire and into the waters
+to destroy him. But if thou canst do any thing, help us, having
+compassion on us.
+
+9:22. And Jesus saith to him: If thou canst believe, all things are
+possible to him that believeth.
+
+9:23. And immediately the father of the boy crying out, with tears said:
+I do believe, Lord. Help my unbelief.
+
+9:24. And when Jesus saw the multitude running together, he threatened
+the unclean spirit, saying to him: Deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee,
+go out of him and enter not any more into him.
+
+9:25. And crying out and greatly tearing him, he went our of him. And
+he became as dead, so that many said: He is dead.
+
+9:26. But Jesus taking him by the hand, lifted him up. And he arose.
+
+9:27. And when he was come into the house, his disciples secretly asked
+him: Why could not we cast him out?
+
+9:28. And he said to them: This kind can go out by nothing, but by
+prayer and fasting.
+
+9:29. And departing from thence, they passed through Galilee: and he
+would not that any man should know it.
+
+9:30. And he taught his disciples and said to them: The Son of man shall
+be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after
+that he is killed, he shall rise again the third day.
+
+9:31. But they understood not the word: and they were afraid to ask him.
+
+9:32. And they came to Capharnaum. And when they were in the house, he
+asked them: What did you treat of in the way?
+
+9:33. But they held their peace, for in the way they had disputed among
+themselves, which of them should be the greatest.
+
+9:34. And sitting down, he called the twelve and saith to them: If any
+man desire to be first, he shall be the last of all and be minister of
+all.
+
+9:35. And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them. Whom when he
+had embraced, he saith to them:
+
+9:36. Whosoever shall receive one such child as this in my name
+receiveth me. And whosoever shall receive me receiveth not me but him
+that sent me.
+
+9:37. John answered him, saying: Master, we saw one casting out devils
+in thy name, who followeth not us: and we forbade him.
+
+9:38. But Jesus said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a
+miracle in my name and can soon speak ill of me.
+
+9:39. For he that is not against you is for you.
+
+9:40. For whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water in my name,
+because you belong to Christ: amen I say to you, he shall not lose his
+reward.
+
+9:41. And whosoever shall scandalize one of these little ones that
+believe in me: it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about
+his neck and he were cast into the sea.
+
+9:42. And if thy hand scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee
+to enter into life, maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into
+unquenchable fire:
+
+9:43. Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
+
+9:44. And if thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee
+to enter lame into life everlasting than having two feet to be cast into
+the hell of unquenchable fire:
+
+9:45. Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
+
+9:46. And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out: it is better for
+thee with one eye to enter into the kingdom of God than having two eyes
+to be cast into the hell of fire:
+
+9:47. Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.
+
+9:48. For every one shall be salted with fire: and every victim shall be
+salted with salt.
+
+9:49. Salt is good. But if the salt become unsavoury, wherewith will you
+season it? Have salt in you: and have peace among you.
+
+Mark Chapter 10
+
+Marriage is not to be dissolved. The danger of riches. The ambition of
+the sons of Zebedee. A blind man is restored to his sight.
+
+10:1. And rising up from thence, he cometh into the coast of Judea
+beyond the Jordan: and the multitude flocked to him again. And as he was
+accustomed, he taught them again.
+
+10:2. And the Pharisees coming to him asked him, tempting him: Is it
+lawful for a man to put away his wife?
+
+10:3. But he answering, saith to them: What did Moses command you?
+
+10:4. Who said: Moses permitted to write a bill of divorce and to put
+her away.
+
+10:5. To whom Jesus answering, said: Because of the hardness of your
+heart, he wrote you that precept.
+
+10:6. But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and
+female.
+
+10:7. For this cause, a man shall leave his father and mother and shall
+cleave to his wife.
+
+10:8. And they two shall be in one flesh. Therefore now they are not
+two, but one flesh.
+
+10:9. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.
+
+10:10. And in the house again his disciples asked him concerning the
+same thing.
+
+10:11. And he saith to them: Whosoever shall put away his wife and marry
+another committeth adultery against her.
+
+10:12. And if the wife shall put away her husband and be married to
+another, she committeth adultery.
+
+10:13. And they brought to him young children, that he might touch them.
+And the disciples rebuked them that brought them.
+
+10:14. Whom when Jesus saw, he was much displeased and saith to them:
+Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not: for of
+such is the kingdom of God.
+
+10:15. Amen I say to you, whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God
+as a little child shall not enter into it.
+
+10:16. And embracing them and laying his hands upon them, he blessed
+them.
+
+10:17. And when he was gone forth into the way, a certain man, running
+up and kneeling before him, asked him: Good Master, what shall I do that
+I may receive life everlasting?
+
+10:18. And Jesus said to him: Why callest thou me good? None is good but
+one, that is God.
+
+None is good... Of himself entirely and essentially, but God alone; men
+may be good also, but only by participation of God's goodness.
+
+10:19. Thou knowest the commandments: Do not commit adultery, do not
+kill, do not steal, bear not false witness, do no fraud, honour thy
+father and mother.
+
+10:20. But he answering, said to him: Master, all these things I have
+observed from my youth.
+
+10:21. And Jesus, looking on him, loved him and said to him: One thing
+is wanting unto thee. Go, sell whatsoever thou hast and give to the
+poor: and thou shalt have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.
+
+10:22. Who being struck sad at that saying, went away sorrowful: for he
+had great possessions.
+
+10:23. And Jesus looking round about, saith to his disciples: How hardly
+shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
+
+10:24. And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus again
+answering, saith to them: Children, how hard is it for them that trust
+in riches to enter into the kingdom of God?
+
+10:25. It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than
+for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
+
+10:26. Who wondered the more, saying among themselves: Who then can be
+saved?
+
+10:27. And Jesus looking on them, saith with men it is impossible; but
+not with God. For all things are possible with God.
+
+10:28. And Peter began to say unto him: Behold, we have left all things
+and have followed thee.
+
+10:29. Jesus answering said: Amen I say to you, there is no man who hath
+left house or brethren or sisters or father or mother or children or
+lands, for my sake and for the gospel,
+
+10:30. Who shall not receive an hundred times as much, now in this time:
+houses and brethren and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with
+persecutions: and in the world to come life everlasting.
+
+10:31. But many that are first shall be last: and the last, first.
+
+10:32. And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem: and Jesus went
+before them. And they were astonished and following were afraid. And
+taking again the twelve, he began to tell them the things that should
+befall him.
+
+10:33. Saying: Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be
+betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes and ancients. And they
+shall condemn him to death and shall deliver him to the Gentiles.
+
+10:34. And they shall mock him and spit on him and scourge him and kill
+him: and the third day he shall rise again.
+
+10:35. And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying:
+Master, we desire that whatsoever we shall ask, thou wouldst do it for
+us.
+
+10:36. But he said to them: What would you that I should do for you?
+
+10:37. And they said: Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy right hand
+and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
+
+10:38. And Jesus said to them: You know not what you ask. Can you drink
+of the chalice that I drink of or be baptized with the baptism wherewith
+I am baptized?
+
+10:39. But they said to him: We can. And Jesus saith to them: You shall
+indeed drink of the chalice that I drink of; and with the baptism
+wherewith I am baptized you shall be baptized.
+
+10:40. But to sit on my right hand or on my left is not mine to give to
+you, but to them for whom it is prepared.
+
+10:41. And the ten, hearing it, began to be much displeased at James and
+John.
+
+10:42. But Jesus calling them, saith to them: You know that they who
+seem to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them: and their princes have
+power over them.
+
+10:43. But it is not so among you: but whosoever will be greater shall
+be your minister.
+
+10:44. And whosoever will be first among you shall be the servant of
+all.
+
+10:45. For the Son of man also is not come to be ministered unto: but to
+minister and to give his life a redemption for many.
+
+10:46. And they came to Jericho. And as he went out of Jericho with his
+disciples and a very great multitude, Bartimeus the blind man, the son
+of Timeus, sat by the way side begging.
+
+10:47. Who when he had heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, began to cry
+out and to say: Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.
+
+10:48. And many rebuked him, that he might hold his peace; but he cried
+a great deal the more: Son of David, have mercy on me.
+
+10:49. And Jesus, standing still, commanded him to be called. And they
+call the blind man, saying to him: Be of better comfort. Arise, he
+calleth thee.
+
+10:50. Who casting off his garment leaped up and came to him.
+
+10:51. And Jesus answering, said to him: What wilt thou that I should do
+to thee? And the blind man said to him: Rabboni. That I may see.
+
+10:52. And Jesus saith to him: Go thy way. Thy faith hath made thee
+whole. And immediately he saw and followed him in the way.
+
+Mark Chapter 11
+
+Christ enters into Jerusalem upon an ass. He curses the barren fig tree
+and drives the buyers and sellers out of the temple.
+
+11:1. And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania, at
+the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,
+
+11:2. And saith to them: Go into the village that is over against you,
+and immediately at your coming in thither, you shall find a colt tied,
+upon which no man yet hath sat. Loose him and bring him.
+
+11:3. And if any man shall say to you: What are you doing? Say ye that
+the Lord hath need of him. And immediately he will let him come hither.
+
+11:4. And going their way, they found the colt tied before the gate
+without, in the meeting of two ways. And they loose him.
+
+11:5. And some of them that stood there said to them: What do you
+loosing the colt?
+
+11:6. Who said to them as Jesus had commanded them. And they let him go
+with them.
+
+11:7. And they brought the colt to Jesus. And they lay their garments on
+him: and he sat upon him.
+
+11:8. And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down
+boughs from the trees and strewed them in the way.
+
+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.
+
+11:10. Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that cometh: Hosanna
+in the highest.
+
+11:11. And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple: and having viewed
+all things round about, when now the eventide was come, he went out to
+Bethania with the twelve.
+
+11:12. And the next day when they came out from Bethania, he was hungry.
+
+11:13. And when he had seen afar off a fig tree having leaves, he came,
+if perhaps he might find any thing on it. And when he was come to it, he
+found nothing but leaves. For it was not the time for figs.
+
+11:14. And answering he said to it: May no man hereafter eat fruit of
+thee any more for ever! And his disciples heard it.
+
+11:15. And they came to Jerusalem. And when he was entered into the
+temple, he began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple:
+and over threw the tables of the moneychangers and the chairs of them
+that sold doves.
+
+11:16. And he suffered not that any man should carry a vessel through
+the temple.
+
+11:17. And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written: My house shall
+be called the house of prayer to all nations, but you have made it a den
+of thieves.
+
+11:18. Which when the chief priests and the scribes had heard, they
+sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because the
+whole multitude was in admiration at his doctrine.
+
+11:19. And when evening was come, he went forth out of the city.
+
+11:20. And when they passed by in the morning they saw the fig tree
+dried up from the roots.
+
+11:21. And Peter remembering, said to him: Rabbi, behold the fig tree
+which thou didst curse is withered away.
+
+11:22. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Have the faith of God.
+
+11:23. Amen I say to you that whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be
+thou removed and be cast into the sea, and shall not stagger in his
+heart, but be believe that whatsoever he saith shall be done; it shall
+be done unto him.
+
+11:24. Therefore I say unto you, all things, whatsoever you ask when ye
+pray, believe that you shall receive: and they shall come unto you.
+
+11:25. And when you shall stand to pray, forgive, if you have aught
+against any man: that your Father also, who is in heaven, may forgive
+you your sins.
+
+11:26. But if you will not forgive, neither will your father that is in
+heaven forgive you your sins.
+
+11:27. And they come again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the
+temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the
+ancients.
+
+11:28. And they say to him: By what authority dost thou these things?
+And who hath given thee this authority that thou shouldst do these
+things?
+
+11:29. And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one word.
+And answer you me: and I will tell you by what authority I do these
+things.
+
+11:30. The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.
+
+11:31. But they thought with themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven;
+he will say, Why then did you not believe him?
+
+11:32. If we say, From men, we fear the people. For all men counted John
+that he was a prophet indeed.
+
+11:33. And they answering, say to Jesus: We know not. And Jesus
+answering, saith to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do
+these things.
+
+Mark Chapter 12
+
+The parable of the vineyard and husbandmen. Caesar's right to tribute.
+The Sadducees are confuted. The first commandment. The widow's mite.
+
+12:1. And he began to speak to them in parables: A certain man planted a
+vineyard and made a hedge about it and dug a place for the winefat and
+built a tower and let it to husbandmen: and went into a far country.
+
+12:2. And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant to receive
+of the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
+
+12:3. Who, having laid hands on him, beat and sent him away empty.
+
+12:4. And again he sent to them another servant: and him they wounded in
+the head and used him reproachfully.
+
+12:5. And again he sent another, and him they killed: and many others,
+of whom some they beat, and others they killed.
+
+12:6. Therefore, having yet one son, most dear to him, he also sent him
+unto them last of all, saying: They will reverence my son.
+
+12:7. But the husbandmen said one to another: This is the heir. Come
+let us kill him and the inheritance shall be ours.
+
+12:8. And laying hold on him, they killed him and cast him out of the
+vineyard.
+
+12:9. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and
+destroy those husbandmen and will give the vineyard to others.
+
+12:10. And have you not read this scripture, The stone which the
+builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:
+
+12:11. By the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes.
+
+12:12. And they sought to lay hands on him: but they feared the people.
+For they knew that he spoke this parable to them. And leaving him, they
+went their way.
+
+12:13. And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians:
+that they should catch him in his words.
+
+12:14. Who coming, say to him: Master, we know that thou art a true
+speaker and carest not for any 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 shall we not give it?
+
+12:15. Who knowing their wiliness, saith to them: Why tempt you me?
+Bring me a penny that I may see it.
+
+12:16. And they brought it him. And he saith to them: Whose is this
+image and inscription? They say to him, Caesar's.
+
+12:17. And Jesus answering, said to them: Render therefore to Caesar the
+things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's. And they
+marvelled at him.
+
+12:18. And there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no
+resurrection. And they asked him, saying:
+
+12:19. Master, Moses wrote unto us that if any man's brother die and
+leave his wife behind him and leave no children, his brother should take
+his wife and raise up seed to his brother.
+
+12:20. Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife and died
+leaving no issue.
+
+12:21. And the second took her and died: and neither did he leave any
+issue. And the third in like manner.
+
+12:22. And the seven all took her in like manner and did not leave
+issue. Last of all the woman also died.
+
+12:23. In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise again, whose
+wife shall she be of them? For the seven had her to wife.
+
+12:24. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Do ye not therefore err,
+because you know not the scriptures nor the power of God?
+
+12:25. For when they shall rise again from the dead, they shall neither
+marry, nor be married, but are as the angels in heaven.
+
+12:26. And as concerning the dead that they rise again have you not read
+in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spoke to him, saying: I am the
+God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?
+
+12:27. He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You therefore
+do greatly err.
+
+12:28. And there came one of the scribes that had heard them reasoning
+together, and seeing that he had answered them well, asked him which was
+the first commandment of all.
+
+12:29. And Jesus answered him: The first commandment of all is, Hear, O
+Israel: the Lord thy God is one God.
+
+12:30. And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and
+with thy whole soul and with thy whole mind and with thy whole strength.
+This is the first commandment.
+
+12:31. And the second is like to it: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
+thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these.
+
+12:32. And the scribe said to him: Well, Master, thou hast said in truth
+that there is one God and there is no other besides him.
+
+12:33. And that he should be loved with the whole heart and with the
+whole understanding and with the whole soul and with the whole strength.
+And to love one's neighbour as one's self is a greater thing than all
+holocausts and sacrifices.
+
+12:34. And Jesus seeing that he had answered wisely, said to him: Thou
+art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him
+any question.
+
+12:35. And Jesus answering, said, teaching in the temple: How do the
+scribes say that Christ is the son of David?
+
+12:36. For David himself saith by the Holy Ghost: The Lord said to my
+Lord: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool.
+
+12:37. David therefore himself calleth him Lord. And whence is he then
+his son? And a great multitude heard him gladly.
+
+12:38. And he said to them in his doctrine: Beware of the scribes, who
+love to walk in long robes and to be saluted in the marketplace,
+
+12:39. And to sit in the first chairs in the synagogues and to have the
+highest places at suppers:
+
+12:40. Who devour the houses of widows under the pretence of long
+prayer. These shall receive greater judgment.
+
+12:41. And Jesus sitting over against the treasury, beheld how the
+people cast money into the treasury. And many that were rich cast in
+much.
+
+12:42. And there came a certain poor widow: and she cast in two mites,
+which make a farthing.
+
+12:43. And calling his disciples together, he saith to them: Amen I say
+to you, this poor widow hath cast in more than all they who have cast
+into the treasury.
+
+12:44. For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want
+cast in all she had, even her whole living.
+
+Mark Chapter 13
+
+Christ foretells the destruction of the temple and the signs that shall
+forerun the day of judgment.
+
+13:1. And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said
+to him: Master, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are
+here.
+
+13:2. And Jesus answering, said to him: Seest thou all these great
+buildings? There shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not
+be thrown down.
+
+13:3. And as he sat on the mount of Olivet over against the temple,
+Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart:
+
+13:4. Tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign
+when all these things shall begin to be fulfilled?
+
+13:5. And Jesus answering, began to say to them: Take heed lest any man
+deceive you.
+
+13:6. For many shall come in my name saying, I am he: and they shall
+deceive many.
+
+13:7. And when you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, fear ye not.
+For such things must needs be: but the end is not yet.
+
+13:8. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom:
+and there shall be earthquakes in divers places and famines. These
+things are the beginning of sorrows.
+
+13:9. But look to yourselves. For they shall deliver you Up to councils:
+and in the synagogues you shall be beaten: and you shall stand before
+governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony unto them.
+
+13:10. And unto all nations the gospel must first be preached.
+
+13:11. And when they shall lead you and deliver you up, be not
+thoughtful beforehand what you shall speak: but whatsoever shall be
+given you in that hour, that speak ye. For it is not you that speak, but
+the Holy Ghost.
+
+13:12. And the brother shall betray his brother unto death, and the
+father his son; and children shall rise up against their parents and
+shall work their death.
+
+13:13. And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake. But he that
+shall endure unto the end, he shall be saved.
+
+13:14. And when you shall see the abomination of desolation, standing
+where it ought not (he that readeth let him understand): then let them
+that are in Judea flee unto the mountains.
+
+13:15. And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house
+nor enter therein to take any thing out of the house.
+
+13:16. And let him that shall be in the field not turn back to take up
+his garment.
+
+13:17. And woe to them that are with child and that give suck in those
+days.
+
+13:18. But pray ye that these things happen not in winter.
+
+13:19. For in those days shall be such tribulations as were not from the
+beginning of the creation which God created until now: neither shall be.
+
+13:20. And unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh should be
+saved: but, for the sake of the elect which he hath chosen, he hath
+shortened the days.
+
+13:21. And then if any man shall say to you: Lo, here is Christ. Lo, he
+is here: do not believe.
+
+13:22. For there will rise up false Christs and false prophets: and they
+shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce (if it were possible) even the
+elect.
+
+13:23. Take you heed therefore: behold, I have foretold you all things.
+
+13:24. But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be
+darkened and the moon shall not give her light.
+
+13:25. And the stars of heaven shall be falling down and the powers that
+are in heaven shall be moved.
+
+13:26. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds, with
+great power and glory.
+
+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.
+
+13:28. Now of the fig tree learn ye a parable. When the branch thereof
+is now tender and the leaves are come forth, you know that summer is
+very near.
+
+13:29. So you also when you shall see these things come to pass, know ye
+that it is very nigh, even at the doors.
+
+13:30. Amen, I say to you that this generation shall not pass until all
+these things be done.
+
+13:31. Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my word shall not pass
+away.
+
+13:32. But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in
+heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.
+
+Nor the Son... Not that the Son of God is absolutely ignorant of the day
+of judgment, but that he knoweth it not, as our teacher; that is, he
+knoweth it not so as to teach it to us, as not being expedient.
+
+13:33. Take ye heed, watch and pray. For ye know not when the time is.
+
+13:34. Even as a man who, going into a far country, left his house and
+gave authority to his servants over every work and commanded the porter
+to watch.
+
+13:35. Watch ye therefore (for you know not when the lord of the house
+cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cock crowing, or in the
+morning):
+
+13:36. Lest coming on a sudden, he find you sleeping.
+
+13:37. And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch.
+
+Mark Chapter 14
+
+The first part of the history of the passion of Christ.
+
+14:1. Now the feast of the pasch and of the Azymes was after two days:
+and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might by some wile
+lay hold on him and kill him.
+
+Azymes... That is, the feast of the unleavened bread.
+
+14:2. But they said: Not on the festival day, lest there should be a
+tumult among the people.
+
+14:3. And when he was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper, and
+was at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of
+precious spikenard. And breaking the alabaster box, she poured it out
+upon his head.
+
+14:4. Now there were some that had indignation within themselves and
+said: Why was this waste of the ointment made?
+
+14:5. For this ointment might have been sold for more than three hundred
+pence and given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
+
+14:6. But Jesus said: Let her alone. Why do You molest her? She hath
+wrought a good work upon me.
+
+14:7. For the poor you have always with you: and whensoever you will,
+you may do them good: but me you have not always.
+
+14:8. She hath done what she could: she is come beforehand to anoint my
+body for the burial.
+
+14:9. Amen, I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in
+the whole world, that also which she hath done shall be told for a
+memorial of her.
+
+14:10. And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests,
+to betray him to them.
+
+14:11. Who hearing it were glad: and they promised him they would give
+him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
+
+14:12. Now on the first day of the unleavened bread, when they
+sacrificed the pasch, the disciples say to him: Whither wilt thou that
+we go and prepare for thee to eat the pasch?
+
+14:13. And he sendeth two of his disciples and saith to them: Go ye into
+the city; and there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water.
+Follow him.
+
+14:14. And whithersoever he shall go in, say to the master of the house,
+The master saith, Where is my refectory, where I may eat the pasch with
+my disciples?
+
+14:15. And he will shew you a large dining room furnished. And there
+prepare ye for us.
+
+14:16. And his disciples went their way and came into the city. And
+they found as he had told them: and they prepared the pasch.
+
+14:17. And when evening was come, he cometh with the twelve.
+
+14:18. And when they were at table and eating, Jesus saith: Amen I say
+to you, one of you that eateth with me shall betray me.
+
+14:19. But they began to be sorrowful and to say to him, one by one: Is
+it I?
+
+14:20. Who saith to them: One of the twelve, who dippeth with me his
+hand in the dish.
+
+14:21. And the Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe
+to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed. It were better
+for him, if that man had not been born.
+
+14:22. And whilst they were eating, Jesus took bread; and blessing,
+broke and gave to them and said: Take ye. This is my body.
+
+14:23. And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them.
+And they all drank of it.
+
+14:24. And he said to them: This is my blood of the new testament, which
+shall be shed for many.
+
+14:25. Amen I say to you that I will drink no more of the fruit of the
+vine until that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God.
+
+14:26. And when they had sung an hymn, they went forth to the mount of
+Olives.
+
+14:27. And Jesus saith to them: You will all be scandalized in my regard
+this night. For it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep
+shall be dispersed.
+
+14:28. But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into
+Galilee.
+
+14:29. But Peter saith to him: Although all shall be scandalized in
+thee, yet not I.
+
+14:30. And Jesus saith to him: Amen I say to thee, to-day, even in this
+night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.
+
+Crow twice... The cocks crow at two different times of the night; viz.,
+about midnight for the first time; and then about the time commonly
+called the cock crowing; and this was the cock crowing our Saviour spoke
+of; and therefore the other Evangelists take no notice of the first
+crowing.
+
+14:31. But he spoke the more vehemently: Although I should die together
+with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner also said they all.
+
+14:32. And they came to a farm called Gethsemani. And he saith to his
+disciples: Sit you here, while I pray.
+
+14:33. And he taketh Peter and James and John with him: and he began to
+fear and to be heavy.
+
+14:34. And he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death. Stay
+you here and watch.
+
+14:35. And when he was gone forward a little, he fell flat on the
+ground: and he prayed that, if it might be, the hour might pass from
+him.
+
+14:36. And he saith: Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee:
+remove this chalice from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.
+
+14:37. And he cometh and findeth them sleeping. And he saith to Peter:
+Simon, sleepest thou? Couldst thou not watch one hour?
+
+14:38. Watch ye: and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit
+indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
+
+14:39. And going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.
+
+14:40. And when he returned, he found them again asleep (for their eyes
+were heavy): and they knew not what to answer him.
+
+14:41. And he cometh the third time and saith to them: Sleep ye now and
+take your rest. It is enough. The hour is come: behold the Son of man
+shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
+
+14:42. Rise up: let us go. Behold, he that will betray me is at hand.
+
+14:43. And while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the
+twelve: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the
+chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.
+
+14:44. And he that betrayed him had given them a sign, saying:
+Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he. Lay hold on him: and lead him away
+carefully.
+
+14:45. And when he was come, immediately going up to him he saith: Hail,
+Rabbi! And he kissed him.
+
+14:46. But they laid hands on him and held him.
+
+14:47. And one of them that stood by, drawing a sword, struck a servant
+of the chief priest and cut off his ear.
+
+14:48. And Jesus answering, said to them: Are you come out as to a
+robber, with swords and staves to apprehend me?
+
+14:49. I was daily with you in the temple teaching: and you did not lay
+hands on me. But that the scriptures may be fulfilled.
+
+14:50. Then his disciples, leaving him, all fled away.
+
+14:51. And a certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth cast
+about his naked body. And they laid hold on him.
+
+14:52. But he, casting off the linen cloth, fled from them naked.
+
+14:53. And they brought Jesus to the high priest. And all the priests
+and the scribes and the ancients assembled together.
+
+14:54. And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the high
+priest. And he sat with the servants at the fire and warmed himself.
+
+14:55. And the chief priests and all the council sought for evidence
+against Jesus, that they might put him to death: and found none.
+
+14:56. For many bore false witness against him: and their evidences were
+not agreeing.
+
+14:57. And some rising up, bore false witness against him, saying:
+
+14:58. We heard him say, I Will destroy this temple made with hands and
+within three days I will build another not made with hands.
+
+14:59. And their witness did not agree.
+
+14:60. And the high priest rising up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying:
+Answerest thou nothing to the things that are laid to thy charge by
+these men?
+
+14:61. But he held his peace and answered nothing. Again the high priest
+asked him and said to him: Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed
+God?
+
+14:62. And Jesus said to him: I am. And you shall see the Son of man
+sitting on the right hand of the power of God and coming with the clouds
+of heaven.
+
+14:63. Then the high priest rending his garments, saith: What need we
+any further witnesses?
+
+14:64. You have heard the blasphemy. What think you? Who all condemned
+him to be guilty of death.
+
+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 struck him with the
+palms their hands.
+
+14:66. Now when Peter was in the court below, there cometh one of the
+maidservants of the high priest.
+
+14:67. And when she had seen Peter warming himself looking on him, she
+saith: Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
+
+14:68. But he denied, saying: I neither know nor understand what thou
+sayest. And he went forth before the court; and the cock crew.
+
+14:69. And again a maidservant seeing him, began to say to the standers
+by: This is one of them.
+
+14:70. But he denied again. And after a, while they that stood by said
+again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a
+Galilean.
+
+14:71. But he began o curse and to swear, saying: I know not this man of
+whom you speak.
+
+14:72. And immediately the cock crew again. And Peter remembered the
+word that Jesus had said unto him: Before the cock crow twice, thou
+shalt thrice deny me. And he began to weep,
+
+Mark Chapter 15
+
+The continuation of the history of the passion.
+
+15:1. And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a
+consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council,
+binding Jesus, led him away and delivered him to Pilate.
+
+15:2. And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he
+answering, saith to him: Thou sayest it.
+
+15:3. And the chief priests accused him in many things.
+
+15:4. And Pilate again asked him, saying: Answerest thou nothing?
+Behold in how many things they accuse thee.
+
+15:5. But Jesus still answered nothing: so that Pilate wondered.
+
+15:6. Now on the festival day he was wont to release unto them one of
+the prisoners, whomsoever they demanded.
+
+15:7. And there was one called Barabbas, who was put in prison with some
+seditious men, who in the sedition had committed murder.
+
+15:8. And when the multitude was come up, they began to desire that he
+would do as he had ever done unto them.
+
+15:9. And Pilate answered them and said: Will you that I release to you
+the king of the Jews?
+
+15:10. For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up out of
+envy.
+
+15:11. But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather
+release Barabbas to them.
+
+15:12. And Pilate again answering, saith to them: What will you then
+that I do to the king of the Jews?
+
+15:13. But they again cried out: Crucify him.
+
+15:14. And Pilate saith to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they
+cried out the more: Crucify him.
+
+15:15. And so Pilate being willing to satisfy the people, released to
+them Barabbas: and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be
+crucified.
+
+15:16. And the soldiers led him away into the court of the palace: and
+they called together the whole band.
+
+15:17. And they clothed him with purple: and, platting a crown of
+thorns, they put it upon him.
+
+15:18. And they began to salute him: Hail, king of the Jews.
+
+15:19. And they struck his head with a reed: and they did spit on him.
+And bowing their knees, they adored him.
+
+15:20. And after they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him
+and put his own garments on him: and they led him out to crucify him.
+
+15:21. And they forced one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by coming out of
+the country, the father of Alexander and of Rufus, to take up his cross.
+
+15:22. And they bring him into the place called Golgotha, which being
+interpreted is, The place of Calvary.
+
+15:23. And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh. But he took
+it not.
+
+15:24. And crucifying him, they divided his garments, casting lots upon
+them, what every man should take.
+
+15:25. And it was the third hour: and they crucified him.
+
+The third hour... The ancient account divided the day into four parts,
+which were named from the hour from which they began; the first, third,
+sixth, and ninth hour. Our Lord was crucified a little before noon;
+before the third hour had quite expired; but when the sixth hour was
+near at hand.
+
+15:26. And the inscription of his cause was written over: THE KING OF
+THE JEWS.
+
+15:27. And with him they crucify two thieves: the one on his right hand,
+and the other on his left.
+
+15:28. And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith: And with the wicked
+he was reputed.
+
+15:29. And they that passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and
+saying: Vah, thou that destroyest the temple of God and in three days
+buildest it up again:
+
+15:30. Save thyself, coming down from the cross.
+
+15:31. In like manner also the chief priests, mocking, said with the
+scribes one to another: He saved others; himself he cannot save.
+
+15:32. Let Christ the king of Israel come down now from the cross, that
+we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him, reviled
+him.
+
+15:33. And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the
+whole earth until the ninth hour.
+
+15:34. And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying:
+Eloi, Eloi, lamma sabacthani? Which is, being interpreted: My God, My
+God, Why hast thou forsaken me?
+
+15:35. And some of the standers by hearing, said: Behold he calleth
+Elias.
+
+15:36. And one running and filling a sponge with vinegar and putting it
+upon a reed, gave him to drink, saying: Stay, let us see if Elias come
+to take him down.
+
+15:37. And Jesus, having cried out with a loud voice, gave up the ghost.
+
+15:38. And the veil of the temple was rent in two, from the top to the
+bottom.
+
+15:39. And the centurion who stood over against him, seeing that crying
+out in this manner he had given up the ghost said: Indeed this man was
+the son of God.
+
+15:40. And there were also women looking on afar off: among whom was
+Mary Magdalen and Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joseph and
+Salome,
+
+15:41. Who also when he was in Galilee followed him and ministered to
+him, and many other women that came up with him to Jerusalem.
+
+15:42. And when evening was now come (because it was the Parasceve, that
+is, the day before the sabbath),
+
+15:43. Joseph of Arimathea, a noble counsellor, who was also himself
+looking for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate and
+begged the body of Jesus.
+
+15:44. But Pilate wondered that he should be already dead. And sending
+for the centurion, he asked him if he were already dead.
+
+15:45. And when he had understood it by the centurion, he gave the body
+to Joseph.
+
+15:46. And Joseph, buying fine linen and taking him down, wrapped him up
+in the fine linen and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewed out of a
+rock. And he rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre.
+
+15:47. And Mary Magdalen and Mary the mother of Joseph, beheld where he
+was laid.
+
+Mark Chapter 16
+
+Christ's resurrection and ascension.
+
+16:1. And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalen and Mary the mother
+of James and Salome bought sweet spices, that coming, they might anoint
+Jesus.
+
+16:2. And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they
+come to the sepulchre, the sun being now risen.
+
+The sun being now risen... They set out before it was light, to go to
+the sepulchre; but the sun was risen when they arrived there. Or,
+figuratively, the sun here spoken of is the sun of justice, Christ Jesus
+our Lord, who was risen before their coming.
+
+16:3. And they said one to another: Who shall roll us back the stone
+from the door of the sepulchre?
+
+16:4. And looking, they saw the stone rolled back. For it was very
+great.
+
+16:5. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on
+the right side, clothed with a white robe: and they were astonished.
+
+16:6. Who saith to them: Be not affrighted, you seek Jesus of Nazareth,
+who was crucified. He is risen: he is not here. Behold the place where
+they laid him.
+
+16:7. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into
+Galilee. There you shall see him, as he told you.
+
+16:8. But they going out, fled from the sepulchre: for a trembling and
+fear had seized them. And they said nothing to any man: for they were
+afraid.
+
+16:9. But he rising early the first day of the week, appeared first to
+Mary Magdalen; out of whom he had cast seven devils.
+
+16:10. She went and told them that had been with him, who were mourning
+and weeping.
+
+16:11. And they hearing that he was alive and had been seen by her, did
+not believe.
+
+16:12. And after that he appeared in another shape to two of them
+walking, as they were going into the country.
+
+16:13. And they going told it to the rest: neither did they believe
+them.
+
+16:14. At length he appeared to the eleven as they were at table: and he
+upbraided them with their incredulity and hardness of heart, because
+they did not believe them who had seen him after he was risen again.
+
+16:15. And he said to them: Go ye into the whole world and preach the
+gospel to every creature.
+
+16:16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that
+believeth not shall he condemned.
+
+16:17. And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name they
+shall cast out devils. They shall speak with new tongues.
+
+16:18. They shall take up serpents: and if they shall drink any deadly
+thing, it shall not hurt them. They shall lay their hand upon the sick:
+and they shall recover.
+
+16:19. And the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up
+into heaven and sitteth on the right hand of God.
+
+16:20. But they going forth preached every where: the Lord working
+withal, and confirming the word with signs that followed.

+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,

+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers. If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
