New International Version
Psalm 105-106
New International Version
Psalm 105(A)
1 Give praise to the Lord,(B) proclaim his name;(C)
make known among the nations what he has done.
2 Sing to him,(D) sing praise to him;(E)
tell of all his wonderful acts.(F)
3 Glory in his holy name;(G)
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
4 Look to the Lord and his strength;
seek his face(H) always.
5 Remember the wonders(I) he has done,
his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,(J)
6 you his servants, the descendants of Abraham,(K)
his chosen(L) ones, the children of Jacob.
7 He is the Lord our God;
his judgments are in all the earth.
8 He remembers his covenant(M) forever,
the promise he made, for a thousand generations,
9 the covenant he made with Abraham,(N)
the oath he swore to Isaac.
10 He confirmed it(O) to Jacob as a decree,
to Israel as an everlasting covenant:(P)
11 “To you I will give the land of Canaan(Q)
as the portion you will inherit.”(R)
12 When they were but few in number,(S)
few indeed, and strangers in it,(T)
13 they wandered from nation to nation,(U)
from one kingdom to another.
14 He allowed no one to oppress(V) them;
for their sake he rebuked kings:(W)
15 “Do not touch(X) my anointed ones;
do my prophets(Y) no harm.”
16 He called down famine(Z) on the land
and destroyed all their supplies of food;
17 and he sent a man before them—
Joseph, sold as a slave.(AA)
18 They bruised his feet with shackles,(AB)
his neck was put in irons,
19 till what he foretold(AC) came to pass,
till the word(AD) of the Lord proved him true.
20 The king sent and released him,
the ruler of peoples set him free.(AE)
21 He made him master of his household,
ruler over all he possessed,
22 to instruct his princes(AF) as he pleased
and teach his elders wisdom.(AG)
23 Then Israel entered Egypt;(AH)
Jacob resided(AI) as a foreigner in the land of Ham.(AJ)
24 The Lord made his people very fruitful;
he made them too numerous(AK) for their foes,
25 whose hearts he turned(AL) to hate his people,
to conspire(AM) against his servants.
26 He sent Moses(AN) his servant,
and Aaron,(AO) whom he had chosen.(AP)
27 They performed(AQ) his signs(AR) among them,
his wonders(AS) in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness(AT) and made the land dark—
for had they not rebelled against(AU) his words?
29 He turned their waters into blood,(AV)
causing their fish to die.(AW)
30 Their land teemed with frogs,(AX)
which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.
31 He spoke,(AY) and there came swarms of flies,(AZ)
and gnats(BA) throughout their country.
32 He turned their rain into hail,(BB)
with lightning throughout their land;
33 he struck down their vines(BC) and fig trees(BD)
and shattered the trees of their country.
34 He spoke,(BE) and the locusts came,(BF)
grasshoppers(BG) without number;(BH)
35 they ate up every green thing in their land,
ate up the produce of their soil.
36 Then he struck down all the firstborn(BI) in their land,
the firstfruits of all their manhood.
37 He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold,(BJ)
and from among their tribes no one faltered.
38 Egypt was glad when they left,
because dread of Israel(BK) had fallen on them.
39 He spread out a cloud(BL) as a covering,
and a fire to give light at night.(BM)
40 They asked,(BN) and he brought them quail;(BO)
he fed them well with the bread of heaven.(BP)
41 He opened the rock,(BQ) and water gushed out;
it flowed like a river in the desert.
42 For he remembered his holy promise(BR)
given to his servant Abraham.
43 He brought out his people with rejoicing,(BS)
his chosen ones with shouts of joy;
44 he gave them the lands of the nations,(BT)
and they fell heir to what others had toiled(BU) for—
45 that they might keep his precepts
and observe his laws.(BV)
Psalm 106(BX)
2 Who can proclaim the mighty acts(CB) of the Lord
or fully declare his praise?
3 Blessed are those who act justly,(CC)
who always do what is right.(CD)
4 Remember me,(CE) Lord, when you show favor(CF) to your people,
come to my aid(CG) when you save them,
5 that I may enjoy the prosperity(CH) of your chosen ones,(CI)
that I may share in the joy(CJ) of your nation
and join your inheritance(CK) in giving praise.
6 We have sinned,(CL) even as our ancestors(CM) did;
we have done wrong and acted wickedly.(CN)
7 When our ancestors were in Egypt,
they gave no thought(CO) to your miracles;
they did not remember(CP) your many kindnesses,
and they rebelled by the sea,(CQ) the Red Sea.[c]
8 Yet he saved them(CR) for his name’s sake,(CS)
to make his mighty power(CT) known.
9 He rebuked(CU) the Red Sea, and it dried up;(CV)
he led them through(CW) the depths as through a desert.
10 He saved them(CX) from the hand of the foe;(CY)
from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.(CZ)
11 The waters covered(DA) their adversaries;
not one of them survived.
12 Then they believed his promises
and sang his praise.(DB)
13 But they soon forgot(DC) what he had done
and did not wait for his plan to unfold.(DD)
14 In the desert(DE) they gave in to their craving;
in the wilderness(DF) they put God to the test.(DG)
15 So he gave them(DH) what they asked for,
but sent a wasting disease(DI) among them.
16 In the camp they grew envious(DJ) of Moses
and of Aaron, who was consecrated to the Lord.
17 The earth opened(DK) up and swallowed Dathan;(DL)
it buried the company of Abiram.(DM)
18 Fire blazed(DN) among their followers;
a flame consumed the wicked.
19 At Horeb they made a calf(DO)
and worshiped an idol cast from metal.
20 They exchanged their glorious God(DP)
for an image of a bull, which eats grass.
21 They forgot the God(DQ) who saved them,
who had done great things(DR) in Egypt,
22 miracles in the land of Ham(DS)
and awesome deeds(DT) by the Red Sea.
23 So he said he would destroy(DU) them—
had not Moses, his chosen one,
stood in the breach(DV) before him
to keep his wrath from destroying them.
24 Then they despised(DW) the pleasant land;(DX)
they did not believe(DY) his promise.
25 They grumbled(DZ) in their tents
and did not obey the Lord.
26 So he swore(EA) to them with uplifted hand
that he would make them fall in the wilderness,(EB)
27 make their descendants fall among the nations
and scatter(EC) them throughout the lands.
28 They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor(ED)
and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;
29 they aroused the Lord’s anger(EE) by their wicked deeds,(EF)
and a plague(EG) broke out among them.
30 But Phinehas(EH) stood up and intervened,
and the plague was checked.(EI)
31 This was credited to him(EJ) as righteousness
for endless generations(EK) to come.
32 By the waters of Meribah(EL) they angered the Lord,
and trouble came to Moses because of them;
33 for they rebelled(EM) against the Spirit(EN) of God,
and rash words came from Moses’ lips.[d](EO)
34 They did not destroy(EP) the peoples
as the Lord had commanded(EQ) them,
35 but they mingled(ER) with the nations
and adopted their customs.
36 They worshiped their idols,(ES)
which became a snare(ET) to them.
37 They sacrificed their sons(EU)
and their daughters to false gods.(EV)
38 They shed innocent blood,
the blood of their sons(EW) and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
and the land was desecrated by their blood.
39 They defiled themselves(EX) by what they did;
by their deeds they prostituted(EY) themselves.
40 Therefore the Lord was angry(EZ) with his people
and abhorred his inheritance.(FA)
41 He gave them into the hands(FB) of the nations,
and their foes ruled over them.
42 Their enemies oppressed(FC) them
and subjected them to their power.
43 Many times he delivered them,(FD)
but they were bent on rebellion(FE)
and they wasted away in their sin.
44 Yet he took note of their distress
when he heard their cry;(FF)
45 for their sake he remembered his covenant(FG)
and out of his great love(FH) he relented.(FI)
46 He caused all who held them captive
to show them mercy.(FJ)
47 Save us,(FK) Lord our God,
and gather us(FL) from the nations,
that we may give thanks(FM) to your holy name(FN)
and glory in your praise.
48 Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
Let all the people say, “Amen!”(FO)
Praise the Lord.

New International Version
Mark 10
New International Version
Divorce(A)
10 Jesus then left that place and went into the region of Judea and across the Jordan.(B) Again crowds of people came to him, and as was his custom, he taught them.(C)
2 Some Pharisees(D) came and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
3 “What did Moses command you?” he replied.
4 They said, “Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and send her away.”(E)
5 “It was because your hearts were hard(F) that Moses wrote you this law,” Jesus replied. 6 “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’[a](G) 7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,[b] 8 and the two will become one flesh.’[c](H) So they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
10 When they were in the house again, the disciples asked Jesus about this. 11 He answered, “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her.(I) 12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”(J)
The Little Children and Jesus(K)
13 People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.(L) 15 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”(M) 16 And he took the children in his arms,(N) placed his hands on them and blessed them.
The Rich and the Kingdom of God(O)
17 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees(P) before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(Q)
18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.’[d]”(R)
20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.”
21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor,(S) and you will have treasure in heaven.(T) Then come, follow me.”(U)
22 At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich(V) to enter the kingdom of God!”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is[e] to enter the kingdom of God!(W) 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”(X)
26 The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, “Who then can be saved?”
27 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.”(Y)
28 Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!”(Z)
29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundred times as much(AA) in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come(AB) eternal life.(AC) 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”(AD)
Jesus Predicts His Death a Third Time(AE)
32 They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and the disciples were astonished, while those who followed were afraid. Again he took the Twelve(AF) aside and told them what was going to happen to him. 33 “We are going up to Jerusalem,”(AG) he said, “and the Son of Man(AH) will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law.(AI) They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles, 34 who will mock him and spit on him, flog him(AJ) and kill him.(AK) Three days later(AL) he will rise.”(AM)
The Request of James and John(AN)
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”
36 “What do you want me to do for you?” he asked.
37 They replied, “Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.”(AO)
38 “You don’t know what you are asking,”(AP) Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup(AQ) I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?”(AR)
39 “We can,” they answered.
Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with,(AS) 40 but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”
41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John. 42 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 43 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,(AT) 44 and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,(AU) and to give his life as a ransom for many.”(AV)
Blind Bartimaeus Receives His Sight(AW)
46 Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples, together with a large crowd, were leaving the city, a blind man, Bartimaeus (which means “son of Timaeus”), was sitting by the roadside begging. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth,(AX) he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David,(AY) have mercy on me!”
48 Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.”
So they called to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.” 50 Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus.
51 “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked him.
The blind man said, “Rabbi,(AZ) I want to see.”
52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.”(BA) Immediately he received his sight and followed(BB) Jesus along the road.
