Mark 3
3
1 And again, he entered into the synagogue. And there was a man there who had a withered hand.
2 And they observed him, to see if he would cure on the Sabbaths, so that they might accuse him.
3 And he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Stand up in the middle."
4 And he said to them: "Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbaths, or to do evil, to give health to a life, or to destroy?" But they remained silent.
5 And looking around at them with anger, being very saddened over the blindness of their hearts, he said to the man, "Extend your hand." And he extended it, and his hand was restored to him.
6 Then the Pharisees, going out, immediately took counsel with the Herodians against him, as to how they might destroy him.
7 But Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea. And a great crowd followed him from Galilee and Judea,
8 and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea and across the Jordan. And those around Tyre and Sidon, upon hearing what he was doing, came to him in a great multitude.
9 And he told his disciples that a small boat would be useful to him, because of the crowd, lest they press upon him.
10 For he healed so many, that as many of them as had wounds would rush toward him in order to touch him.
11 And the unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell prostrate before him. And they cried out, saying,
12 "You are the Son of God." And he strongly admonished them, lest they make him known.
13 And ascending onto a mountain, he called to himself those whom he willed, and they came to him.
14 And he acted so that the twelve would be with him, and so that he might send them out to preach.
15 And he gave them authority to cure infirmities, and to cast out demons:
16 and he imposed on Simon the name Peter;
17 and also he imposed on James of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, the name 'Boanerges,' that is, 'Sons of Thunder;'
18 and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
20 And they went to a house, and the crowd gathered together again, so much so that they were not even able to eat bread.
21 And when his own had heard of it, they went out to take hold of him. For they said: "Because he has gone mad."
22 And the scribes who had descended from Jerusalem said, "Because he has Beelzebub, and because by the prince of demons does he cast out demons."
23 And having called them together, he spoke to them in parables: "How can Satan cast out Satan?
24 For if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom is not able to stand.
25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house is not able to stand.
26 And if Satan has risen up against himself, he would be divided, and he would not be able to stand; instead he reaches the end.
27 No one is able to plunder the goods of a strong man, having entered into the house, unless he first binds the strong man, and then he shall plunder his house.
28 Amen I say to you, that all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and the blasphemies by which they will have blasphemed.
29 But he who will have blasphemed against the Holy Spirit shall not have forgiveness in eternity; instead he shall be guilty of an eternal offense."
30 For they said: "He has an unclean spirit."
31 And his mother and brothers arrived. And standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.
32 And the crowd was sitting around him. And they said to him, "Behold, your mother and your brothers are outside, seeking you."
33 And responding to them, he said, "Who is my mother and my brothers?"
34 And looking around at those who were sitting all around him, he said: "Behold, my mother and my brothers.
35 For whoever has done the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister and mother."

Mark 3
1¶ And he entered again into the synagogue, and there was a man there who had a withered hand.
2And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day, that they might accuse him.
3So he said unto the man who had the withered hand, Stand forth.
4And he said unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days or to do evil? to save the person or to kill them? But they were silent.
5And looking round about on them with anger, being grieved for the blindness of their hearts, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out and his hand was restored whole as the other.
6And as the Pharisees went forth, they took counsel with the Herodians against him, to kill him.
7But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea
8and from Jerusalem and from Idumaea and from beyond Jordan. And those who dwell around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came unto him.
9And he spoke to his disciples that a small ship should wait on him because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.
10For he had healed many, insomuch that as many as had plagues pressed upon him to touch him.
11And the unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him and cried out, saying, Thou art the Son of God.
12And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.
13¶ And he went up to the mountain and called unto himself whom he would, and they came unto him.
14And he established twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach
15and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out devils:
16Simon, whom he gave the name Peter;
17and James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed them Boanerges, which is The sons of thunder;
18and Andrew and Philip and Bartholomew and Matthew and Thomas and James the son of Alphaeus and Thaddaeus and Simon the Canaanite
19and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him; and they came home.
20And the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.
21And when his friends and family heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him; for they said, He is beside himself.
22¶ But the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said that he had Beelzebub and that by the prince of the devils he cast out devils.
23And he called them unto him and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?
24If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot remain.
25And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot remain.
26And if Satan rises up against himself and is divided, he cannot remain, but has an end.
27No 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.
28Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men and whatever blasphemies with which they shall blaspheme,
29but whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit shall never have forgiveness but is obligated to eternal judgment,
30because they said, He has an unclean spirit.
31¶ There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him.
32The multitude was sitting all around him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brothers and sisters seek thee without.
33And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother or my brethren?
34And looking round about on those who sat about him, he said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
35For whosoever doeth the will of God, the same is my brother and my sister and my mother.
