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.

Mark 10
Legacy Standard Bible

Teaching About Divorce

10 (A)And standing up, He *went from there to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan; crowds *gathered around Him again, and, (B)according to His custom, He once more began to teach them.

2 And some Pharisees came up to Jesus, testing Him, and began to question Him whether it was lawful for a man to [a]divorce a wife. 3 And He answered and said to them, “What did Moses command you?” 4 And they said, “(C)Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and [b]send her away.” 5 But Jesus said to them, “[c](D)Because of your hardness of heart he wrote for you this commandment. 6 But (E)from the beginning of creation, God (F)made them male and female. 7 (G)For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother[d], 8 (H)and the two shall become one flesh; so they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”

10 And in the house the disciples began questioning Him about this again. 11 And He *said to them, “(I)Whoever [e]divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her; 12 and (J)if she herself [f]divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery.”

Jesus Blesses Little Children

13 (K)And they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, “Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; (L)for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 15 Truly I say to you, (M)whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all.” 16 And He (N)took them in His arms and began blessing them, laying His hands on them.

The Rich Young Ruler

17 (O)And as He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and (P)knelt before Him, and began asking Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to (Q)inherit eternal life?” 18 And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. 19 You know the commandments, ‘(R)Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” 20 And he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept (S)all these things from my youth up.” 21 And looking at him, Jesus loved him and said to him, “One thing you lack: go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have (T)treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22 But at these words [g]he was saddened, and he went away grieving, for he was one who owned much property.

23 And Jesus, looking around, *said to His disciples, “(U)How hard it will be for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God!” 24 And the disciples (V)were amazed at His words. But Jesus *answered again and *said to them, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! 25 (W)It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” 26 And they were even more astonished, saying to [h]Him, “[i]Then who can be saved?” 27 Looking at them, Jesus *said, “(X)With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.”

28 (Y)Peter began to say to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You.” 29 Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, (Z)there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel’s sake, 30 [j]except one who will receive one hundred times as much now in [k]the present age—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with persecutions—and in (AA)the age to come, eternal life. 31 But (AB)many who are first will be last, and the last, first.”

Jesus Again Foretells His Death and Resurrection

32 (AC)And they were on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking on ahead of them; and they (AD)were amazed, and those who followed were fearful. And again He took the twelve aside and began to tell them what was going to happen to Him: 33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and (AE)the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and will deliver Him over to the Gentiles. 34 And they will mock Him and (AF)spit on Him, and flog Him and kill Him, and three days later He will rise again.”

A Request for Status

35 (AG)Then James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, *came up to Jesus, saying to Him, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask of You.” 36 And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?” 37 And they said to Him, “[l]Grant that we (AH)may sit, one on Your right and one on Your left, in Your glory.” 38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able (AI)to drink the cup that I drink, or (AJ)to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?” 39 And they said to Him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink (AK)you shall drink; and you shall be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized. 40 But to sit on My right or on My left, this is not Mine to give; (AL)but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”

41 (AM)And hearing this, the ten began to feel indignant with James and John. 42 And calling them to Himself, Jesus *said to them, “You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great men exercise authority over them. 43 But it is not this way among you, (AN)but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant; 44 and whoever wishes to be first among you shall be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man (AO)did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His [m]life a ransom for many.”

Bartimaeus Regains His Sight

46 (AP)Then they *came to Jericho. And (AQ)as He was leaving Jericho with His disciples and a large crowd, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road. 47 And when he heard that it was Jesus the (AR)Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, (AS)Son of David, have mercy on me!” 48 And many were sternly telling him to be quiet, but he kept crying out all the more, “(AT)Son of David, have mercy on me!” 49 And Jesus stopped and said, “Call him here.” So they *called the blind man, saying to him, “(AU)Take courage, get up! He is calling for you.” 50 And throwing off his outer garment, he jumped up and came to Jesus. 51 And Jesus answered him and said, “What do you want Me to do for you?” And the blind man said to Him, “[n](AV)Rabboni, I want to regain my sight!” 52 And Jesus said to him, “Go; (AW)your faith has [o]saved you.” Immediately he regained his sight and began following Him on the road.

Markus 10
nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)

Jesus talar om äktenskap och skilsmässa

(Matt 19:1-9)

10 Sedan lämnade Jesus det området och gick mot Judeen och till andra sidan Jordan. Folkmassor samlades omkring honom igen, och som vanligt undervisade han dem.

2 Då kom några fariseer för att pröva Jesus och frågade: ”Har en man[a] rätt att skilja sig från sin hustru?”

3 Då sa Jesus: ”Vilka bestämmelser gav Mose er?”

4 De svarade: ”Mose tillät en man att ge ett intyg om skilsmässan och skicka iväg kvinnan.[b]”

5 ”Mose skrev den bestämmelsen”, fortsatte Jesus, ”därför att era hjärtan är hårda. 6 Men från skapelsens början skapade Gud dem till man och kvinna,[c] och 7 därför lämnar en man sin far och mor och håller sig till sin hustru, 8 så att de två blir ett kött.[d] De är alltså inte längre två utan en kropp. 9 Och vad Gud har förenat, får människan inte skilja åt.”

10 När de sedan kom hem, frågade hans lärjungar honom mer om detta. 11 Han sa då till dem: ”Den som skiljer sig från sin hustru och gifter sig med en annan är otrogen mot henne.[e] 12 Och om en frånskild kvinna gifter om sig med en annan, begår hon äktenskapsbrott.”

Jesus välsignar barnen

(Matt 19:13-15; Luk 18:15-17)

13 Några föräldrar kom nu till Jesus med sina barn för att han skulle röra vid dem. Men lärjungarna körde bort dem.

14 När Jesus såg det blev han arg och sa till dem: ”Låt barnen komma till mig, hindra dem inte, för Guds rike tillhör sådana som de. 15 Sannerligen säger jag er: den som inte tar emot Guds rike som ett barn kommer överhuvudtaget inte in dit.”

16 Så tog han barnen i famnen och lade händerna på dem och välsignade dem.

Jesus talar med en rik man

(Matt 19:16-30; Luk 18:18-30)

17 När han sedan skulle fortsätta sin väg, kom en man springande och föll på knä framför honom och sa: ”Gode Mästare, vad ska jag göra för att få evigt liv?”

18 ”Varför kallar du mig god?” frågade Jesus. ”Ingen är god förutom Gud. 19 Buden kan du: ’Du ska inte mörda, Du ska inte vara otrogen i ditt äktenskap, Du ska inte stjäla, Du ska inte vittna falskt. Du ska inte lura av någon det som är hans, Visa respekt för din far och mor.[f]’ ”

20 ”Mästare”, svarade mannen, ”allt detta har jag hållit ända sedan jag var ung.”

21 Då fylldes Jesus av kärlek och såg på honom och sa: ”Det är bara en sak som fattas dig. Gå och sälj allt du äger och ge pengarna åt de fattiga. Då ska du få en skatt i himlen. Kom sedan och följ mig.”

22 Men när mannen hörde det mörknade hans ansikte och han gick bedrövad bort, för han ägde mycket.

23 Jesus såg sig omkring och sa till sina lärjungar: ”Hur svårt är det inte för den som har pengar att komma in i Guds rike!”

24 Lärjungarna blev förskräckta över det han sa. Jesus upprepade: ”Mina barn, hur svårt är det inte att komma in i Guds rike! 25 Det är lättare för en kamel att komma igenom ett nålsöga än för en rik att komma in i Guds rike.”

26 De blev ännu mer förskräckta och sa till varandra: ”Vem kan då bli räddad?”

27 Jesus såg på dem och sa: ”För människorna är det omöjligt, men inte för Gud, eftersom allting är möjligt för honom.”

28 Då sa Petrus till honom: ”Vi har lämnat allt för att följa dig.”

29 Jesus svarade: ”Sannerligen säger jag er: var och en som lämnar hus eller syskon eller föräldrar eller barn eller åkrar för min och evangeliets skull, 30 han ska få hundra gånger så mycket igen. Han ska få hus och syskon och mödrar och barn och åkrar redan här i tiden, mitt under förföljelser, och evigt liv i den kommande tidsåldern. 31 Många som är sist ska bli först, och många som är först ska bli sist.”

Jesus förutsäger för tredje gången att han ska dö

(Matt 20:17-19; Luk 18:31-33)

32 De var nu på väg upp till Jerusalem, och Jesus gick först. De var fulla av förundran, och de övriga som följde med var rädda.

Jesus samlade då de tolv och förklarade för dem vad som skulle hända med honom. 33 ”Vi är nu på väg till Jerusalem”, sa han. ”Där kommer Människosonen att bli förrådd och överlämnad till översteprästerna och de skriftlärda, och de ska döma honom till döden och överlämna honom till hedningarna[g]. 34 De ska sedan håna honom och spotta på honom, piska honom och till slut döda honom. Men efter tre[h] dagar ska han uppstå.”

Jakob och Johannes vill ha hedersplatserna

(Matt 20:20-28; Luk 22:24-27)

35 Då gick Jakob och Johannes, Sebedaios söner, fram till honom och sa: ”Mästare, vi vill be dig om en sak.”

36 ”Vad vill ni då att jag ska göra för er?” frågade han.

37 De sa: ”Låt oss få sitta en på höger och en på vänster sida om dig i din härlighet.”[i]

38 Men Jesus sa till dem: ”Ni vet inte vad ni ber om! Kan ni dricka den bägare som jag måste dricka? Kan ni bli döpta med det dop som jag måste döpas med?”[j]

39 ”Ja”, svarade de. ”Det kan vi!”

Då sa Jesus: ”Ni kommer att få dricka den bägare som jag dricker, och döpas med det dop som jag döps med, 40 men det är inte min sak att bestämma över platser på min högra och på min vänstra sida. De ges åt dem som de har beretts för.”

41 När de tio övriga hörde detta blev de upprörda över Jakob och Johannes. 42 Men Jesus kallade dem till sig och sa: ”Ni vet att de som betraktas som härskare regerar över folken och att stormännen utövar makt över dem. 43 Men så är det inte bland er. Den av er som vill bli stor måste vara de andras tjänare, 44 och den som vill vara den förste måste vara allas slav. 45 Människosonen har inte kommit för att bli tjänad utan för att tjäna och ge sitt liv till lösen för många.”

Jesus botar den blinde Bartimaios utanför Jeriko

(Matt 20:29-34; Luk 18:35-43)

46 De kom till Jeriko. Och när han och hans lärjungar och en stor skara folk var på väg ut från staden, satt en blind tiggare som hette Bartimaios (son till Timaios) vid vägkanten.

47 När Bartimaios fick höra att det var Jesus från Nasaret som kom, började han ropa: ”Jesus, Davids Son, förbarma dig över mig!”

48 Många försökte få honom att hålla tyst, men han ropade bara ännu högre: ”Davids Son, förbarma dig över mig!”

49 Jesus stannade och sa: ”Be honom komma hit!” Då ropade de på den blinda mannen och sa: ”Lugna ner dig. Res på dig och kom. Jesus ropar på dig.” 50 Bartimaios slängde av sig sin mantel och hoppade upp och kom fram till Jesus.

51 ”Vad vill du att jag ska göra för dig?” frågade Jesus.

”Rabbouni[k]”, sa den blinde, ”jag vill kunna se igen!”

52 Då sa Jesus till honom: ”Gå! Din tro har gjort dig frisk[l].” Och genast kunde mannen se. Sedan följde han efter Jesus på vägen.
