Mark 8
Lexham English Bible
The Feeding of Four Thousand
8 In those days there was[a] again a large crowd, and they did not have[b] anything they could eat. Summoning the disciples, he said to them, 2 “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have remained with me three days already and do not have anything to eat. 3 And if I send them away hungry to their homes they will give out on the way, and some of them have come from far away.” 4 And his disciples answered him, “Where is anyone able to feed these people with bread here in the desert?” 5 And he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” So they said, “Seven.” 6 And he commanded the crowd to recline for a meal on the ground, and taking the seven loaves, after he[c] had given thanks he broke them[d] and began giving[e] them[f] to his disciples so that they could set them[g] before them.[h] And they set them[i] before the crowd. 7 And they had a few small fish, and after[j] giving thanks for them, he said to set these before them also. 8 And they ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the broken pieces that were left, seven baskets full. 9 Now there were about four thousand. And he sent them away. 10 And immediately he got into the boat with his disciples and[k] went to the district of Dalmanutha.
Pharisees Demand a Sign
11 And the Pharisees came and began to argue with him, demanding from him a sign from heaven in order to[l] test him. 12 And sighing deeply in his spirit, he said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I say to you, no sign will be given to this generation!” 13 And he left them, got into the boat[m] again, and[n] went to the other side.
Beware the Leaven of the Pharisees and Herod
14 And they had forgotten to take bread, and except for one loaf, they did not have any[o] with them in the boat. 15 And he ordered them, saying, “Watch out! Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod!” 16 And they began to discuss with one another that they had no bread. 17 And knowing this,[p] he said to them, “Why are you discussing that you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive or understand? Have your hearts been hardened? 18 Although you[q] have eyes, do you not see? And although you[r] have ears, do you not hear? And do you not remember? 19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand how many baskets full of broken pieces did you pick up?” They said to him, “Twelve.” 20 “When I also[s] broke[t] the seven loaves[u] for the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you pick up?” And they said to him, “Seven.” 21 And he said to them, “Do you not yet understand?”
A Blind Man Healed at Bethsaida
22 And they came to Bethsaida. And they brought to him a blind man and implored him that he would touch him. 23 And he took hold of the blind man’s hand and[v] led him outside the village, and after[w] spitting in his eyes, he placed his hands on him and[x] asked him, “Do you see anything?” 24 And looking up he said, “I see people, for I see them[y] like trees walking around.” 25 Then he placed his[z] hands on his eyes again, and he opened his eyes and was cured, and could see everything clearly. 26 And he sent him to his home, saying, “Do not even go into the village.”
Peter’s Confession at Caesarea Philippi
27 And Jesus and his disciples went out to the villages of Caesarea Philippi, and on the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, “Who do people say that I am?” 28 And they told him, saying, “John the Baptist, and others Elijah, and others that you are one of the prophets.” 29 And he asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered and[aa] said to him, “You are the Christ!” 30 And he warned them that they should tell no one about him.
Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection
31 And he began to teach them that it was necessary for the Son of Man to suffer many things and to be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and to be killed, and after three days to rise. 32 And he was speaking openly about the subject, and Peter took him aside and[ab] began to rebuke him. 33 But turning around and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan, because you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but the things of people!”
Taking Up One’s Cross to Follow Jesus
34 And summoning the crowd together with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone wants to come[ac] after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life on account of me and of the gospel will save it. 36 For what does it benefit a person to gain the whole world and forfeit his life? 37 For what can a person give in exchange for his life? 38 For whoever is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”

Nouvo Testaman: Vèsyon Kreyòl Fasil
Jezi bay plis pase 4,000 moun manje
(Mat 15:32-39)
8 Yon lòt fwa ankò, yon gwo foul moun te rasanble epi yo pa t gen anyen pou yo manje. Lè sa a, Jezi rele disip li yo, li di yo. 2 “Kè m fè m mal pou moun yo, yo la avè m depi twa jou epi kounyea, yo pa gen anyen pou yo manje. 3 Mwen pa ka voye yo lakay yo tou grangou. Si yo ale konsa, yo ka tonbe feblès nan wout. Anpil ladan yo rete lwen isit la.”
4 Disip Jezi yo reponn li: “Nan zòn sa a, ki kote nou pral jwenn ase manje pou nou bay tout moun sa yo?”
5 Jezi mande yo: “Konbyen pen nou genyen?”
Yo reponn li: “Nou genyen sèt pen.”
6 Jezi mande moun yo pou yo chita atè a. Apre sa, li pran sèt pen yo epi li remèsye Bondye pou yo. Li kase pen yo epi li bay disip li yo pou yo sèvi foul la. 7 Disip yo te gen kèk ti pwason tou. Jezi di Bondye mèsi pou ti pwason yo epi li mande disip yo pou yo separe yo bay moun yo tou.
8 Tout moun yo manje vant deboutonnen. Lè disip yo ranmase moso ki rete yo, yo jwenn sèt panye. 9 Te gen apeprè 4,000 moun la. Apre sa Jezi voye yo al lakay yo. 10 Tousuit apre sa, Jezi monte nan yon bato ak disip li yo epi yo ale nan yon zòn ki rele Dalmanita.
Kèk moun gen dout sou otorite Jezi
(Mat 16:1-4; Lik 11:16, 29)
11 Farizyen yo vin kote Jezi epi yo kòmanse poze l kesyon. Yo mande li pou l fè yon mirak ki bay prèv Bondye avè l. 12 Jezi fè yon gwo soupi epi li di: “Poukisa nou menm moun sa yo n ap mande mirak kòm siy? M a p di nou verite a: Pa gen yon mirak k ap fèt ki pral pwouve anyen pou nou.” 13 Apre sa, Jezi kite yo epi li monte nan ti bato a, li ale lòtbò rivyè a.
Disip Jezi yo mal konprann li
(Mat 16:5-12)
14 Disip yo te genyen yon pen avèk yo nan kannòt la. Yo te bliye pote pen. 15 Jezi avèti yo: “Pran prekosyon ak ledven Farizyen yo ansanm ak ledven Ewòd la.”
16 Disip yo t ap diskite sou siyifikasyon pawòl la epi yo t ap di: “Se poutèt nou pa gen pen ki fè l ap di sa.”
17 Jezi te konnen sou kisa disip yo t ap pale. Alò, li mande yo: “Sou Kisa n ap pale konsa? Paske nou pa gen pen? Nou poko konprann toujou? Èske se fèmen n ap esye fèmen lespri nou pou pa konprann sa m ap eseye di nou? 18 Èske nou gen je ki pa kapab wè? Èske nou gen zòrèy ki pa kapab tande? Epi èske nou pa sonje sa m te fè lè nou pa t gen ase pen an? 19 Lè mwen te separe senk pen pou 5,000 moun nan, èske nou sonje tou konbyen panye nou te ranpli ak mòso ki te rete yo?”
Disip yo reponn li: “Nou te plen douz (12) panye.”
20 E lè m te separe 7 pen pou 4,000 moun nan, konbyen panye nou te ranpli ak rès pen yo pa t manje yo? Yo reponn li: “Nou te ranpli sèt panye.”
21 Lè sa a, Jezi di yo: “Nou pa ka konprann toujou?”
Jezi geri yon avèg nan vil Bètsayida
22 Jezi ak disip li yo te ale nan vil Bètsayida, yon gwoup moun te mennen ba li yon avèg epi yo mande Jezi pou li touche li. 23 Konsa, Jezi pran men nonm nan epi li sòti deyò vil la ak li. Apre sa, li krache nan je li, li mete men sou li epi li di l: “Èske ou wè kounye y a?”
24 Nonm nan gade epi li di: “Wi mwen wè moun, men yo sanble ak pyebwa k ap mache.”
25 Jezi mete men li sou je nonm nan ankò. Nonm nan ouvri je l byen laj, li te kapab wè ankò. Li te wè tout bagay byen klè. 26 Jezi voye nonm nan retounen lakay li. Li di li: “Pa antre nan vil la.”
Pyè konnen kilès Jezi ye
(Mat 16:13-20; Lik 9:18-21)
27 Jezi ak disip li yo ale nan vil yo ki nan zòn Sezare Filip la. Sou wout la Jezi mande disip li yo: “Ki lès nou tande yo di mwen ye?”
28 Yo reponn li: “Kèk moun di ou se Janbatis, yon lòt gwoup di ou se Eli. Gen lòt menm ankò ki di tou ou se youn nan pwofèt yo.”
29 Lè sa a, Jezi di yo: “E nou menm, kilès nou di mwen ye?”
Pyè reponn li: “Ou se Kris la.”
30 Jezi di disip li yo pou yo pa di okenn moun kilès li ye.
Jezi di li gen pou l mouri
(Mat 16:21-28; Lik 9:22-27)
31 Lè sa a, Jezi kòmanse ap anseye disip li yo Pitit Lòm nan gen pou l soufri anpil bagay. Ansyen yo ki nan tèt pèp Jwif la, sakrifikatè yo ansanm ak eskrib yo gen pou meprize l epi touye l. Men sou twa jou l ap leve vivan ankò. 32 Li di yo sa byen klè.
Men, Pyè pran Jezi sou kote pou l rale zòrèy li. 33 Men, Jezi fè yon vire, li gade disip li yo epi li repouse Pyè konsa: “Rale kò w sou mwen, Satan![a] Lide nan tèt ou pa gen anyen pou wè ak volonte Bondye, yo plis sou sa lèzòm ta vle.”
34 Apre sa, Jezi rele foul la ak disip li yo, epi li di yo: “Si yon moun vle swiv mwen fòk li bliye pwòp tèt li, fòk li pote kwa l epi swiv mwen.” 35 Paske nenpòt moun ki vle sove lavi li, l ap pèdi l. Men moun ki pèdi lavi l pou mwen ak levanjil la, l ap sove lavi li. 36 Ki sa li t ap itil yon nonm pou l ta gen lemonn antye si l ap pèdi pwòp lavi l? 37 Kisa yon moun ka bay an echanj pou lavi li. 38 Nenpòt moun ki wont di li ak mwen, nan tan pèvès, plen ak peche sa a, ki wont pale pawòl mwen, mwen menm tou m ap wont li lè m retounen ak tout bèl laglwa mwen, ak bèl laglwa papa m ansanm ak anj li yo.
