CHAPTER 7
Mark 7:1
1 Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which
came from Jerusalem.
Mark 7:2
2 And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to
say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault. Mark 7:3
3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat
not, holding the tradition of the elders. Mark 7:4
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. Mark 7:5
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?
Mark 7:6
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.
Mark 7:7
7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments
of men.
Mark 7:8
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. Mark 7:9
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye
may keep your own tradition.
Mark 7:10
10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father
or mother, let him die the death: Mark 7:11
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.
Mark 7:12
12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother; Mark
7:13
13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have
delivered: and many such like things do ye. Mark 7:14
14 And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken
unto me every one of you, and understand: Mark 7:15
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.
Mark 7:16
16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear. Mark 7:17
17 And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked
him concerning the parable.
Mark 7:18
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;
Mark 7:19
19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out
into the draught, purging all meats? Mark 7:20
20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. Mark
7:21
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
adulteries, fornications, murders,
Mark 7:22
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye,
blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
Mark 7:23
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man. Mark 7:24
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.
Mark 7:25
25 For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of
him, and came and fell at his feet: Mark 7:26
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. Mark 7:27
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. Mark 7:28
28 And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table
eat of the children's crumbs. Mark 7:29
29 And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of
thy daughter.
Mark 7:30
30 And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her
daughter laid upon the bed.
Mark 7:31
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. Mark 7:32
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. Mark 7:33
33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his
ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue; Mark 7:34
34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that
is, Be opened.
Mark 7:35
35 And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was
loosed, and he spake plain.
Mark 7:36
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; Mark 7:37
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. CHAPTER 8
Mark 8:1
1 In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat,
Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them, Mark 8:2
2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three
days, and have nothing to eat: Mark 8:3
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. Mark 8:4
4 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with
bread here in the wilderness?
Mark 8:5
5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven. Mark 8:6
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. Mark 8:7
7 And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them
also before them.
Mark 8:8
8 So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that
was left seven baskets.
Mark 8:9
9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
Mark 8:10
10 And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into
the parts of Dalmanutha.
Mark 8:11
11 And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of
him a sign from heaven, tempting him. Mark 8:12
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.
Mark 8:13
13 And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other
side.
Mark 8:14
14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship
with them more than one loaf.
Mark 8:15
15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the
Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod. Mark 8:16
16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.
Mark 8:17
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?
Mark 8:18
18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not
remember?
Mark 8:19
19 When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of
fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve. Mark 8:20
20 And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments
took ye up? And they said, Seven. Mark 8:21
21 And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand? Mark 8:22
22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and
besought him to touch him.
Mark 8:23
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.
Mark 8:24
24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. Mark 8:25
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. Mark 8:26
26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor
tell it to any in the town.
Mark 8:27
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?
Mark 8:28
28 And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One
of the prophets.
Mark 8:29
29 And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and
saith unto him, Thou art the Christ. Mark 8:30
30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him. Mark 8:31
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. Mark 8:32
32 And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke
him.
Mark 8:33
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. Mark 8:34
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.
Mark 8:35
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. Mark 8:36
36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose
his own soul?
Mark 8:37
37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Mark 8:38
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. CHAPTER 9
Mark 9:1
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.
Mark 9:2
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.
Mark 9:3
3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on
earth can white them.
Mark 9:4
4 And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with
Jesus.
Mark 9:5
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.
Mark 9:6
6 For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. Mark 9:7
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. Mark 9:8
8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more,
save Jesus only with themselves.
Mark 9:9
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.
Mark 9:10
10 And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another
what the rising from the dead should mean. Mark 9:11
11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?
Mark 9:12
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.
Mark 9:13
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. Mark 9:14
14 And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and
the scribes questioning with them. Mark 9:15
15 And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed,
and running to him saluted him. Mark 9:16
16 And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them? Mark 9:17
17 And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto
thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; Mark 9:18
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. Mark 9:19
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. Mark 9:20
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. Mark 9:21
21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And
he said, Of a child.
Mark 9:22
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.
Mark 9:23
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him
that believeth.
Mark 9:24
24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears,
Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. Mark 9:25
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. Mark 9:26
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. Mark 9:27
27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. Mark 9:28
28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why
could not we cast him out?
Mark 9:29
29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer
and fasting.
Mark 9:30
30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that
any man should know it.
Mark 9:31
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. Mark 9:32
32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him. Mark 9:33
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? Mark 9:34
34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among
themselves, who should be the greatest. Mark 9:35
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. Mark
9:36
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, Mark 9:37
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. Mark 9:38
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.
Mark 9:39
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. Mark 9:40
40 For he that is not against us is on our part. Mark 9:41
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. Mark
9:42
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.
Mark 9:43
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:
Mark 9:44
44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Mark 9:45
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:
Mark 9:46
46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Mark 9:47
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:
Mark 9:48
48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Mark 9:49
49 For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be
salted with salt.
Mark 9:50
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. CHAPTER 10
Mark 10:1
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.
Mark 10:2
2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put
away his wife? tempting him.
Mark 10:3
3 And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? Mark 10:4
4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her
away.
Mark 10:5
5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he
wrote you this precept.
Mark 10:6
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. Mark
10:7
7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his
wife;
Mark 10:8
8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one
flesh.
Mark 10:9
9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. Mark 10:10
10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. Mark
10:11
11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry
another, committeth adultery against her. Mark 10:12
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she
committeth adultery.
Mark 10:13
13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his
disciples rebuked those that brought them. Mark 10:14
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.
Mark 10:15
15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a
little child, he shall not enter therein. Mark 10:16
16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
Mark 10:17
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?
Mark 10:18
18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but
one, that is, God.
Mark 10:19
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.
Mark 10:20
20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from
my youth.
Mark 10:21
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.
Mark 10:22
22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great
possessions.
Mark 10:23
23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly
shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! Mark 10:24
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! Mark 10:25
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. Mark 10:26
26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then
can be saved?
Mark 10:27
27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with
God: for with God all things are possible. Mark 10:28
28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed
thee.
Mark 10:29
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, Mark 10:30
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. Mark 10:31
31 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first. Mark 10:32
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,
Mark 10:33
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: Mark 10:34
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. Mark 10:35
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. Mark 10:36
36 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you? Mark 10:37
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. Mark 10:38
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?
Mark 10:39
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:
Mark 10:40
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. Mark 10:41
41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and
John.
Mark 10:42
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. Mark 10:43
43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you,
shall be your minister:
Mark 10:44
44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. Mark
10:45
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. Mark 10:46
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. Mark 10:47
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. Mark 10:48
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. Mark 10:49
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. Mark
10:50
50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus. Mark 10:51
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. Mark
10:52
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.
