Mark 1
1
The Kingdom Is Coming Now
1The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua ha-Mashiach, Ben-Elohim.
2As Isaiah the prophet has written, “Behold, I send My messenger before You, who will prepare Your way.
3The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way of Adonai, and make His paths straight.’”
4John appeared, immersing in the wilderness, proclaiming an immersion involving repentance for the removal of sins.
5All the Judean countryside was going out to him, and all the Jerusalemites. As they confessed their sins, they were being immersed by him in the Jordan River.
6John wore clothes made from camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
7“After me comes One who is mightier than I am,” he proclaimed. “I’m not worthy to stoop down and untie the strap of His sandals!
8I immersed you with water, but He will immerse you in the Ruach ha-Kodesh.”
The Spirit Rests on Yeshua
9In those days, Yeshua came from Natzeret in the Galilee and was immersed by John in the Jordan.
10Just as He was coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens ripping open and the Ruach as a dove coming down upon Him.
11And there came a voice from the heavens: “You are My Son, whom I love; with You I am well pleased!”
12That instant, the Ruach drives Him into the wilderness.
13He was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by satan. And He was with the wild beasts, and the angels were taking care of Him.
Fishermen Follow Him
14Now after John was put in jail, Yeshua came into the Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God.
15“Now is the fullness of time,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near! Turn away from your sins, and believe in the Good News!”
16Passing along by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Simon’s brother Andrew casting a net in the sea, for they were fishermen.
17And Yeshua said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men.”
18Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
19Going a little farther, He saw Jacob the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending the nets.
20Immediately He called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired hands and followed Him.
Demons Flee at His Command
21And they went into Capernaum. Right away, on Shabbat, He entered the synagogue and began to teach.
22And they were astounded at His teaching, for He was teaching them as one having authority and not as the Torah scholars.
23Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,
24“What have we to do with You, Yeshua of Natzeret? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are! You’re the Holy One of God!”
25Yeshua rebuked him, saying, “Quiet! Come out of him!”
26And the unclean spirit, after throwing the man into convulsions and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him.
27They were all so amazed that they asked among themselves, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”
28And immediately news about Him spread throughout the region surrounding Galilee.
The Hurting Become Whole
29As soon as they left the synagogue, they went with Jacob and John to the house of Simon and Andrew.
30Now Simon’s mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever. Right away, they told Yeshua about her.
31He came and raised her up by taking her hand. The fever left her, and she began to take care of them.
32When evening came, at sunset, the people brought to Him all the sick and those who were afflicted by demons.
33The whole town gathered together at the door.
34He healed many who were sick with various diseases and drove out many demons. And He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.
35Very early, while it was still night, Yeshua got up, left, and went away to a place in the wilderness; and there He was praying.
36Then Simon and those with him hunted for Yeshua.
37And when they found Him, they said to Him, “Everybody’s looking for You.”
38He said to them, “Let’s go somewhere else, to the neighboring towns, so that I may proclaim the message there also—this is what I came for.”
39And He went throughout all the Galilee, proclaiming the message in their synagogues and driving out demons.
40A man with tza'arat comes to Him, begging Him and falling on his knees, saying, “If You are willing, You can make me clean.”
41Moved with compassion, Yeshua stretched out His hand and touched him. He said, “I am willing. Be cleansed.”
42Immediately, the tza'arat left him, and he was cleansed.
43Yeshua sent him away at once, sternly warning him.
44He said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the kohen. Then, for your cleansing, offer what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
45But he went out and began to proclaim and spread the word, so much that Yeshua could no longer enter a town openly but had to stay out in wilderness areas. Still, they kept on coming to Him from everywhere.

Preaching of John the Baptist
1The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2As it is written in Isaiah the prophet:
“Behold, I send My messenger ahead of You,
Who will prepare Your way;
3The voice of one crying in the wilderness,
‘Make ready the way of the Lord,
Make His paths straight.’ ”
4John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness #Or proclaimingpreaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5And all the country of Judea was going out to him, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins. 6John was clothed with camel’s hair and wore a leather belt around his waist, and his diet was locusts and wild honey. 7And he was preaching, and saying, “After me One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to stoop down and untie the thong of His sandals. 8I baptized you #The Gr here can be translated in, with or bywith water; but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
The Baptism of Jesus
9In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10Immediately coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens opening, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him; 11and a voice came out of the heavens: “You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased.”
12Immediately the Spirit *impelled Him to go out into the wilderness. 13And He was in the wilderness forty days being tempted by Satan; and He was with the wild beasts, and the angels were ministering to Him.
Jesus Preaches in Galilee
14Now after John had been taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, 15and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.”
16As He was going along by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen. 17And Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” 18Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. 19Going on a little farther, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets. 20Immediately He called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went away to follow Him.
21They *went into Capernaum; and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach. 22They were amazed at His teaching; for He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. 23Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, 24saying, “What business do we have with each other, Jesus #Lit the Nazareneof Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!” 25And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!” 26Throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him. 27They were all amazed, so that they debated among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him.” 28Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere into all the surrounding district of Galilee.
Crowds Healed
29And immediately after they came out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30Now Simon’s mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever; and immediately they *spoke to Jesus about her. 31And He came to her and raised her up, taking her by the hand, and the fever left her, and she #Or servedwaited on them.
32When evening came, after the sun had set, they began bringing to Him all who were ill and those who were demon-possessed. 33And the whole city had gathered at the door. 34And He healed many who were ill with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He was not permitting the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.
35In the early morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house, and went away to a secluded place, and was praying there. 36Simon and his companions searched for Him; 37they found Him, and *said to Him, “Everyone is looking for You.” 38He *said to them, “Let us go somewhere else to the towns nearby, so that I may preach there also; for that is what I came for.” 39And He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out the demons.
40And a leper *came to Jesus, beseeching Him and falling on his knees before Him, and saying, “If You are willing, You can make me clean.” 41Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, and *said to him, “I am willing; be cleansed.” 42Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed. 43And He sternly warned him and immediately sent him away, 44and He *said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.” 45But he went out and began to proclaim it freely and to spread the news around, to such an extent that Jesus could no longer publicly enter a city, but #Lit wasstayed out in unpopulated areas; and they were coming to Him from everywhere.
