Mark 2:1

When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.

Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

He went out again by the seaside. All the multitude came to him, and he taught them.

Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,

“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.

Immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even around the door; and he spoke the word to them.

He entered again into the synagogue, and there was a man there who had his hand withered.

When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things?” and, “What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?

Again he departed from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the sea of Galilee, through the middle of the region of Decapolis.

The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.

He entered into a boat, and crossed over, and came into his own city.

The report of this went out into all that land.

But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.

Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

When Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great multitude was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.

He said to them, “You come apart into a deserted place, and rest awhile.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

“Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

he left Judea and departed into Galilee.

This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.

A great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he did on those who were sick.

Now Ephron was sitting in the middle of the children of Heth. Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the children of Heth, even of all who went in at the gate of his city, saying,

“Moreover concerning the foreigner, who is not of your people Israel, when he comes out of a far country for your name’s sake

I will remember Yah’s deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old.

“Son of man, tell the prince of Tyre, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, ‘I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the middle of the seas;’ yet you are man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God—

Nebuchadnezzar the king, to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied to you.

When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

“Don’t give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

When he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him,

Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.

When he got into a boat, his disciples followed him.

When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”

You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until today.

Now the centurion, and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, “Truly this was the Son of God.”

So they took the money and did as they were told. This saying was spread abroad among the Jews, and continues until today.

They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.

The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.

At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.

But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places. People came to him from everywhere.

Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples, and a great multitude followed him from Galilee, from Judea,

from Jerusalem, from Idumaea, beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, “John the Baptizer has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.”

From there he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. He entered into a house, and didn’t want anyone to know it, but he couldn’t escape notice.

One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.

When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”

Soldiers also asked him, saying, “What about us? What must we do?” He said to them, “Extort from no one by violence, neither accuse anyone wrongfully. Be content with your wages.”

He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. He entered, as was his custom, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

News about him went out into every place of the surrounding region.

When it was day, he departed and went into an uninhabited place, and the multitudes looked for him, and came to him, and held on to him, so that he wouldn’t go away from them.

Behold, men brought a paralyzed man on a cot, and they sought to bring him in to lay before Jesus.

All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.

Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet, and begged him to come into his house,

Behold, a man from the crowd called out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.

You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades.

He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.

The law and the prophets were until John. From that time the Good News of God’s Kingdom is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.

When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.

Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”

Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

As the lame man who was healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.

All who heard him were amazed, and said, “Isn’t this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests!”

There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years, because he was paralyzed.

Paul, as was his custom, went in to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

When they had tied him up with thongs, Paul asked the centurion who stood by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and not found guilty?”

Paul summoned one of the centurions, and said, “Bring this young man to the commanding officer, for he has something to tell him.”

He called to himself two of the centurions, and said, “Prepare two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, with seventy horsemen, and two hundred men armed with spears, at the third hour of the night.”

When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to shore.

Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, “Unless these stay in the ship, you can’t be saved.”

But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stopped them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should throw themselves overboard first to go toward the land;

for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,

For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”

When this sound was heard, the multitude came together and were bewildered, because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.
