Mark 1
1¶ The beginning of the gospel of Jesus, the Christ, Son of God,
2as it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
3The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord; make his paths straight.
4John baptized in the wilderness and preached the baptism of repentance for remission of sins.
5And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea and those of Jerusalem and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
6John was clothed with camel’s hair and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he ate locusts and wild honey
7and preached, saying, There comes one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
8I indeed have baptized you with water, but he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit.
9¶ And it came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth a city of Galilee and was baptized of John in the Jordan.
10And as soon as he was come out of the water, John saw the heavens opened and the Spirit like a dove descending and resting upon him;
11and there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my dear Son, in whom I delight.
12And immediately the Spirit drove him into the wilderness.
13And he was there in the wilderness forty days and forty nights and was tempted of Satan and was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered unto him.
14¶ Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God
15and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent ye and believe the gospel.
16Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea, for they were fishers.
17And Jesus said unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
18And straightway they forsook their nets and followed him.
19And when he had gone a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.
20And straightway he called them; and leaving their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, they went after him.
21And they entered into Capernaum, and straightway on the sabbath days he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22And they marvelled at his learning, for he taught them as one that had power with him, and not as the scribes.
23¶ And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
24saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
25And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent, and come out of him.
26And the unclean spirit tore him and cried with a loud voice and came out of him.
27And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? What new doctrine is this? for he commands the unclean spirits with power, and they obey him.
28And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
29¶ And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30But Simon’s mother-in-law lay sick of a fever, and soon they told him of her.
31And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up; and the fever left her by and by, and she ministered unto them.
32In the evening, when the sun was down, they brought unto him all that were diseased and those that were possessed with devils.
33And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34And he healed many that were sick of diverse diseases and cast out many devils and suffered not the devils to speak because they knew him.
35And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out and departed into a solitary place and prayed there.
36And Simon and those that were with him followed after him.
37And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.
38And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns that I may preach there also, for truly I came forth for that purpose.
39And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee and cast out devils.
40¶ And a leper came to him, beseeching him and kneeling down to him and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41And Jesus, having mercy on him, put forth his hand and touched him and said unto him, I will; be thou clean.
42And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was clean.
43And he straitly charged him and forthwith sent him away
44and said unto him, See thou say nothing to any man, but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45But he went out and began to publish it much and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places; and they came to him from every quarter.

The Baptism of Jesus
9In # Mt 3:13-17; Lk 3:21-23 those days Jesus came from Nazareth # Mt 2:23; 4:13; 21:11; Lk 1:26; 2:4,39,51; 4:16; Jn 1:45-46 in Galilee # Mt 17:22 and was baptized in the Jordan by John. 10As soon as He came up out of the water, He saw the heavens # Mt 24:35; Lk 12:33; Ac 17:24; Eph 6:9; Rv 21:10 being torn open and the Spirit descending to Him like a dove. 11And a voice # Jn 5:37 came from heaven: # Rv 14:13
You are My beloved # Lk 20:13; Eph 1:6; Phm 1 Son; # Ps 2:7
I take delight # Is 42:1 in You! # Or In You I am well pleased
The Temptation of Jesus
12Immediately # Mt 4:1-11; Lk 4:1-13 the Spirit # Jn 1:33 drove # 3Jn 10 Him into the wilderness. # Mt 3:1; Rv 12:6 13He was in the wilderness 40 days, being tempted # Jms 1:13 by Satan. # Mt 4:1,10; Ac 13:10 He was with the wild animals, # Rv 6:8 and the angels # Mt 13:49; Ac 5:19; Rv 14:6 began to serve Him.
Ministry in Galilee
14After # Mt 4:17; Jn 4:45 John was arrested, # Mt 3:12; Lk 3:20; 9:7-9; Jn 3:24 Jesus went to Galilee, # Mt 17:22 preaching # Mk 13:10 the good news # Other mss add of the kingdom # Or gospel # Mk 1:1 of God: # Either from God or about God # Rm 15:16; 1Th 2:2,8-9 15“The time # Ps 37:39; Lk 20:10; Jn 7:8 is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God # Mt 3:2; 6:33; 12:28; 19:24; 21:31,43; Mk 4:11; 9:1; 10:14; 12:34; 14:25; 15:43 has come # Mk 9:1 near. # Rm 13:11; 1Pt 4:7 Repent # Ac 3:19; 26:20 and believe # Mk 11:24; Jn 3:16; Ac 10:43; Rm 10:9; 1Pt 1:8-10 in the good news! ”
The First Disciples
16As # Mt 4:18-22; Lk 5:1-11 He was passing along by the Sea of Galilee, # Mt 4:18; 15:29; Jn 6:1 He saw Simon # Mt 16:17 and Andrew, # Jn 6:8 Simon’s brother. They were casting a net into the sea, # Mk 7:31 since they were fishermen.
17“Follow Me,” # Mt 4:19 Jesus told them, “and I will make you fish for # Lit you to become fishers of, # Mt 4:18-19; Lk 5:2 people! ” # Mt 4:19 18Immediately they left their nets and followed # Lk 5:11; Jn 8:12 Him. # Lk 18:28 19Going on a little farther, He saw James # Ac 12:2 the son of Zebedee # Jn 21:2 and his brother John. # Jn 21:7 They were in their boat mending their nets. 20Immediately He called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed Him. # Lk 18:28
Driving Out an Unclean Spirit
21Then # Lk 4:31-35 they went into Capernaum, # Lk 10:15 and right away He entered the synagogue # Mk 3:1; Jms 2:2 on the Sabbath # Mk 2:23; Lk 13:10 and began to teach. # Mt 28:20; Ac 4:2; 2Tm 4:11 22They were astonished # Mk 6:2 at His teaching # Mt 7:28; 22:33; Mk 11:18; Lk 4:32; Ac 2:42; 17:19 because, unlike the scribes, # Mt 2:4 He was teaching them as one having authority.
23Just then a man with an unclean # 2Co 6:17 spirit # Lk 11:24 was in their synagogue. # Jms 2:2 He cried out, # Other mss add to the beginning of v. 24: “Leave us alone. 24“What do You have to do with us, # Lit What to us and to You Jesus — Nazarene? # Mk 14:67 Have You come to destroy # Jn 6:27 us? I know who You are — the Holy # 1Co 7:14 One of God! ” # Lk 4:34; Jn 6:69; Eph 4:30
25But Jesus rebuked # 2Tm 4:2 him and said, “Be quiet, # Or Be muzzled # Mt 22:12 and come out of him! ” 26And the unclean spirit convulsed him, # Mk 9:26; Lk 9:39 shouted with a loud voice, and came out of him.
27Then they were all amazed, # Mk 10:24,32 so they began to argue # Mk 8:11 with one another, saying, “What is this? A new teaching # Mk 11:18; Ac 2:42 with authority! # Other mss read What is this? What is this new teaching? For with authority # Jd 25 He commands even the unclean # 2Co 6:17 spirits, # Lk 11:24 and they obey Him.” 28News about Him then spread throughout the entire vicinity of Galilee. # Mt 17:22
Healings at Capernaum
29As # Mt 8:14-15; Lk 4:38-39 soon as they left the synagogue, # Jms 2:2 they went into Simon # Mt 16:17 and Andrew’s # Jn 6:8 house # Mk 9:33 with James # Ac 12:2 and John. # Jn 21:7 30Simon’s mother-in-law was lying in bed with a fever, and they told Him about her at once. 31So He went to her, took her by the hand, and raised her up. # Mk 5:41 The fever # Lk 4:38 left her, # Other mss add at once and she began to serve # Phm 13 them. # Rm 12:13
32When # Mt 8:16-17; Lk 4:40-41 evening came, after the sun had set, they began bringing to Him all those who were sick # Lk 5:31 and those who were demon-possessed. # Mt 9:32 33The whole town was assembled at the door, 34and He healed # Ac 8:7 many who were sick with various diseases # Ac 19:12 and drove out # 3Jn 10 many demons. # Rv 9:20; 18:2 But He would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew Him. # Mk 3:11-12; 5:7
Preaching in Galilee
35Very # Mt 4:23-25; Lk 4:42-44 early in the morning, while it was still dark, He got up, went out, and made His way to a deserted place. # Mt 14:13; Mk 6:31-32; Lk 4:42; 9:12; Rv 12:6 And He was praying # Mt 5:44; Ac 12:12 there. 36Simon # Mt 16:17 and his companions went searching for Him. 37They found Him and said, “Everyone’s looking for You! ”
38And He said to them, “Let’s go on to the neighboring villages so that I may preach # Mk 1:4 there too. This is why I have come.” 39So He went into all of Galilee, # Mt 17:22 preaching in their synagogues # Mk 3:1 and driving out demons.
A Man Cleansed
40Then # Mt 8:2-4; Lk 5:12-14 a man with a serious skin disease # Mt 11:5 came to Him and, on his knees, # Other mss omit on his knees # Mt 17:14 begged Him: “If You are willing, You can make me clean.” # 1Jn 1:7
41Moved with compassion, # Lk 15:20 Jesus reached out His hand and touched # Jn 20:17 him. “I am willing,” He told him. “Be made clean.” 42Immediately the disease # Lk 5:12 left him, and he was healed. # Lit made clean 43Then He sternly warned # Mt 9:30; Mk 14:5; Jn 11:33,38 him and sent him away # 3Jn 10 at once, 44telling him, “See that you say nothing to anyone; # Mk 5:43; 7:36; 8:26,30; 9:9; 16:8; Lk 5:14 but go and show # Rv 1:1 yourself to the priest, # Ac 4:1 and offer # Heb 5:1; 8:3 what Moses prescribed for your cleansing, # Lv 13–14; Heb 1:3 as a testimony # Mk 6:11; 1Tm 2:6 to them.” 45Yet he went out and began to proclaim # Mk 1:4; Jn 18:32 it widely and to spread the news, # Mk 4:14 with the result that Jesus could no longer enter a town openly. But He was out in deserted places, and they would come to Him from everywhere.
