- Jesus withdrew to the sea with His disciples; and a great multitude from Galilee followed; and also from Judea,
- and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon, a great number of people heard of all that He was doing and came to Him.
- And He told His disciples that a boat should stand ready for Him because of the crowd, so that they would not crowd Him;
- for He had healed many, with the result that all those who had afflictions pressed around Him in order to touch Him.
- Whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, they would fall down before Him and shout, "You are the Son of God!"
|
- But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,
- And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great things he did, came unto him.
- And he spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.
- For he had healed many; insomuch that they pressed upon him for to touch him, as many as had plagues.
- And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.
|
- And He earnestly warned them not to tell who He was.
- And He went up on the mountain and summoned those whom He Himself wanted, and they came to Him.
- And He appointed twelve, so that they would be with Him and that He could send them out to preach,
- and to have authority to cast out the demons.
- And He appointed the twelve: Simon (to whom He gave the name Peter),
|
- And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.
- And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would: and they came unto him.
- And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,
- And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:
- And Simon he surnamed Peter;
|
- and James, the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James (to them He gave the name Boanerges, which means, "Sons of Thunder");
- and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot;
- and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Him.
- And He came home, and the crowd gathered again, to such an extent that they could not even eat a meal.
- When His own people heard of this, they went out to take custody of Him; for they were saying, "He has lost His senses."
|
- And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:
- And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
- And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.
- And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.
- And when his friends heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.
|
- The scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, "He is possessed by Beelzebul," and "He casts out the demons by the ruler of the demons."
- And He called them to Himself and began speaking to them in parables, "How can Satan cast out Satan?
- "If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
- "If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.
- "If Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but he is finished!
|
- And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.
- And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?
- And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
- And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
- And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.
|
- "But no one can enter the strong man's house and plunder his property unless he first binds the strong man, and then he will plunder his house.
- "Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter;
- but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"--
- because they were saying, "He has an unclean spirit."
- Then His mother and His brothers arrived, and standing outside they sent word to Him and called Him.
|
- No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
- Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
- But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.
- Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
- There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him.
|
- A crowd was sitting around Him, and they said to Him, "Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are outside looking for You."
- Answering them, He said, "Who are My mother and My brothers?"
- Looking about at those who were sitting around Him, He said, "Behold My mother and My brothers!
- "For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother and sister and mother."
|
- And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.
- And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?
- And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
- For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
