Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
彼得宣告耶稣是基督
27 耶稣和门徒前往凯撒利亚·腓立比境内的村庄。在路上，祂问门徒：“别人说我是谁？”
28 他们说：“有人说你是施洗者约翰，有人说你是以利亚，有人说你是众先知中的一位。”
29 耶稣又问他们：“那么，你们说我是谁？”
彼得回答说：“你是基督！”
30 耶稣吩咐他们不要泄露祂的身份。
耶稣预言自己的受难和复活
31 从此，耶稣便告诉他们，人子必须受许多苦，被长老、祭司长和律法教师弃绝，杀害，但必在三天之后复活。 32 耶稣清楚地把这些事告诉了他们，彼得就把祂拉到一边，劝阻祂。 33 耶稣转身看了看门徒，斥责彼得说：“撒旦，退到我后面去！因为你不考虑上帝的意思，只考虑人的意思。”
34 祂叫众人和门徒一起过来，对他们说：“如果有人要跟从我，就应当舍己，背起他的十字架跟从我。 35 因为想救自己生命的，必失去生命；但为了我和福音而失去生命的，必得到生命。 36 人就是赚得全世界，却丧失自己的生命，又有什么益处呢？ 37 他还能用什么换回生命呢？
38 “在这淫乱、罪恶的世代，如果有人以我和我的道为耻，人子在父的荣耀中与圣天使再来的时候，也要以他为耻。”
9 耶稣继续说：“我实在告诉你们，有些站在这里的人会在有生之年看见上帝的国带着能力降临。”
登山变象
2 六天后，耶稣带着彼得、雅各和约翰暗暗地登上一座高山。耶稣在他们面前改变了形象， 3 衣服变得洁白放光，世上找不到漂得那么白的布。 4 这时，以利亚和摩西在他们眼前出现，与耶稣谈话。 5 彼得对耶稣说：“老师，我们在这里真好！我们搭三座帐篷吧，一座给你，一座给摩西，一座给以利亚。”
6 其实彼得当时不知说什么才好，因为他们都很害怕。 7 就在这时候，有一朵云彩飘来遮住他们，云彩中有声音说：“这是我的爱子，你们要听从祂。” 8 门徒立刻四处观看，发现没有其他人，只有耶稣和他们在那里。
9 下山的时候，耶稣叮嘱他们在人子还没有从死里复活之前，不要把刚才看见的告诉别人。
10 门徒把这话谨记在心，彼此议论“从死里复活”这句话的意思。 11 他们问耶稣：“律法教师为什么说以利亚必须先来？”
12 耶稣回答说：“以利亚固然要先来复兴一切，但为什么圣经上说人子一定会饱受痛苦、遭人蔑视呢？ 13 其实我告诉你们，以利亚已经来了，人们却任意对待他，正如圣经的记载。”
治好污鬼附身的孩子
14 他们与其他门徒会合时，看见一大群人围住门徒，几个律法教师正在跟他们辩论。 15 大家一看到耶稣，都十分惊奇，立刻跑上去迎接祂。 16 耶稣问门徒：“你们跟他们辩论什么？”
17 人群中有一个人说：“老师，我带了我的儿子来找你，因为他被哑巴鬼附身。 18 每次鬼控制他，把他摔在地上，他就口吐白沫，咬牙切齿，全身僵硬。我请你的门徒赶走那鬼，他们却办不到。”
19 耶稣说：“唉，这不信的世代啊！我要跟你们在一起待多久，容忍你们多久呢？把他带到我这里吧。”
20 他们把那孩子带到耶稣面前。那鬼一见耶稣，就使孩子抽搐，倒在地上打滚，口吐白沫。 21 耶稣问孩子的父亲：“他这样子多久了？”孩子的父亲回答道：“他从小就这样， 22 鬼常常将他扔进火里或水里，要害他的命。如果你能，求你怜悯我们，帮助我们吧！”
23 耶稣说：“如果你能？对于相信的人，凡事都有可能！”
24 孩子的父亲立刻喊着说：“我信！但我信心不足，求你帮助我！”
25 耶稣看见人群都跑了过来，就斥责那污鬼：“你这个聋哑鬼，我命令你从他身上出来，不许再进去！”
26 那鬼发出喊叫，使孩子剧烈地抽搐了一阵，就出来了。孩子躺在地上一动也不动，大家都以为他死了。 27 但耶稣拉着他的手扶他起来，他就站了起来。
28 耶稣进屋后，门徒悄悄问祂：“我们为什么赶不走那鬼呢？”
29 耶稣说：“要赶走这类鬼只有靠祷告[a]。”
再次预言受难
30 他们离开那里，途经加利利。耶稣不想任何人知道祂的行踪， 31 因为祂在教导门徒。祂说：“人子将被交在人的手中，被他们杀害，但三天之后，祂必复活。” 32 门徒却不明白这句话的意思，又不敢问祂。
谁最伟大
33 他们回到迦百农的住所，耶稣问门徒：“你们一路上争论些什么？”
34 他们都沉默不语，因为刚才他们在争论谁最伟大。 35 耶稣坐下，叫十二个门徒过来，对他们说：“谁想为首，就该在众人中做最小的，做众人的仆人。” 36 祂领了一个小孩子来，叫他站在门徒中间，又抱起他，对他们说： 37 “任何人为我的缘故接待这样一个小孩子，就是接待我；凡接待我的，不单是接待我，也是接待差我来的那位。”
警戒犯罪
38 约翰对耶稣说：“老师，我们看见有人奉你的名赶鬼，就阻止他，因为他不是跟从我们的。”
39 耶稣说：“不要阻止他，因为没有人奉我的名行过神迹后，会很快毁谤我。 40 不反对我们的，就是支持我们的。 41 我实在告诉你们，若有人因为你们属于基督而给你们一杯水喝，他也必得到赏赐。
42 “但若有人使这样一个小信徒失足犯罪，他的下场比把大磨石挂在他脖子上扔到海里还要惨。 43 如果你一只手使你犯罪，就砍掉它！ 44 拖着残废的身体进入永生，胜过双手健全却落入地狱不灭的火中。 45 倘若你一只脚使你犯罪，就砍掉它！瘸着腿进入永生， 46 胜过双脚健全却被丢进地狱！ 47 如果你的一只眼睛使你犯罪，就剜掉它！独眼进上帝的国，胜过双目健全却被丢进地狱。 48 在那里，
“‘虫是不死的，
火是不灭的。’
49 “每个人都要被火炼，像被盐腌一样。 50 盐是好东西，但如果失去咸味，怎能使它再咸呢？你们里面要有盐，要彼此和睦。”
论婚姻
10 耶稣离开那里，来到犹太地区和约旦河东岸，人群又聚集到祂那里。耶稣像往常一样教导他们。 2 一些法利赛人想试探耶稣，就来问祂：“男人可以休妻吗？” 3 耶稣反问道：“摩西怎么吩咐你们的？”
4 他们说：“摩西准许人写休书休妻。”
5 耶稣说：“摩西因为你们心硬，才给你们写了这条诫命。 6 太初创造时，‘上帝造了男人和女人。’ 7 ‘因此，人要离开父母，与妻子结合， 8 二人成为一体。’这样，夫妻不再是两个人，而是一体了。 9 因此，上帝配合的，人不可分开。”
10 回到屋里后，门徒追问耶稣这件事。 11 耶稣说：“任何人休妻另娶，就是对妻子不忠，是犯通奸罪。 12 同样，妻子若离弃丈夫另嫁，也是犯通奸罪。”
祝福孩童
13 有人带着小孩子来要让耶稣摸一摸，门徒却责备他们。 14 耶稣看见后很生气，对门徒说：“让小孩子到我这里来，不要阻止他们，因为上帝的国属于这样的人。 15 我实在告诉你们，人若不像小孩子一样接受上帝的国，绝不能进去。” 16 于是，耶稣抱起小孩子，把手按在他们身上，为他们祝福。
永生的代价
17 耶稣正要上路，有一个人跑来跪在祂跟前，问祂：“良善的老师，我该做什么才能承受永生？”
18 耶稣说：“你为什么称呼我‘良善的老师’呢？只有上帝是良善的。 19 你知道‘不可杀人，不可通奸，不可偷盗，不可作伪证，不可欺诈，要孝敬父母’这些诫命。”
20 那人说：“老师，我从小就遵行这些诫命。”
21 耶稣望着他，心中爱他，便说：“你还有一件事没有做，就是变卖你所有的产业，送给穷人，你必有财宝存在天上，然后你还要来跟从我。”
22 那人听了，脸色骤变，便沮丧地走了，因为他有许多产业。 23 耶稣看看周围的人，对门徒说：“有钱人进上帝的国真难啊！”
24 门徒听了感到惊奇，耶稣便再次对他们说：“孩子们，[b]进上帝的国多么难啊！ 25 骆驼穿过针眼比有钱人进上帝的国还容易呢！”
26 门徒更加惊奇，便议论说：“这样，谁能得救呢？”
27 耶稣看着他们说：“对人而言，这不可能，但对上帝而言，凡事都可能。”
28 彼得说：“你看，我们已经撇下一切来跟从你了。”
29 耶稣说：“我实在告诉你们，任何人为了我和福音而撇下房屋、弟兄、姊妹、父母、儿女或田地， 30 今世必在房屋、弟兄、姊妹、父母、儿女或田地方面获得百倍的回报，来世必得永生。当然他也会受到迫害。 31 然而，许多为首的将要殿后，殿后的将要为首。”
耶稣第三次预言自己的受难
32 在前往耶路撒冷的路上，耶稣走在众人前面，门徒感到惊奇，其他跟随的人也很害怕。
耶稣把十二个门徒叫到一旁，再把自己将要遭遇的事告诉他们，说： 33 “听着，我们现在前往耶路撒冷，人子将被交在祭司长和律法教师的手中，他们要判祂死刑，把祂交给外族人。 34 他们会嘲弄祂，向祂吐唾沫，鞭打祂，杀害祂。但是，三天之后祂必复活！”
雅各与约翰的请求
35 西庇太的两个儿子雅各和约翰上前对耶稣说：“老师，请你答应我们一个要求。”
36 耶稣问：“什么要求？”
37 他们说：“在你的荣耀中，求你让我们一个坐在你右边，一个坐在你左边。”
38 耶稣说：“你们不知道自己在求什么。我要喝的那杯，你们能喝吗？我要受的洗，你们能受吗？”
39 他们说：“我们能。”
耶稣说：“我要喝的那杯，你们也要喝；我所受的洗，你们也要受。 40 不过谁坐在我的左右不是我来定，而是为谁预备的，就让谁坐。”
41 其他十个门徒听见这事后，很生雅各和约翰的气。 42 于是，耶稣把他们叫来，对他们说：“你们知道，外族人有君王统治他们，有大臣管理他们， 43 但你们不可这样。你们中间谁要当首领，谁就要做大家的仆人； 44 谁要居首位，谁就要做大家的奴仆。 45 因为就连人子也不是来受人服侍，而是来服侍人，并且牺牲性命，作许多人的赎价。”
治好瞎子巴底买
46 耶稣和门徒来到耶利哥。当耶稣和门徒及众人出城的时候，遇见一个瞎眼的乞丐坐在路旁乞讨，他的名字叫巴底买，是底买的儿子。 47 巴底买一听到经过的是拿撒勒人耶稣，就喊道：“大卫的后裔耶稣啊，可怜我吧！”
48 许多人都责备他，叫他不要吵，但他却更加大声喊道：“大卫的后裔啊，可怜我吧！”
49 耶稣停下脚步，叫人带他过来。
他们就对瞎子巴底买说：“好了，起来吧，祂叫你呢。”
50 巴底买丢下外衣，跳了起来，走到耶稣面前。
51 耶稣问他：“你要我为你做什么？”
瞎子说：“老师，我想能够看见。”
52 耶稣说：“回去吧！你的信心救[c]了你。”那人立刻得见光明，在路上跟从了耶稣。
骑驴进耶路撒冷
11 耶稣和门徒将近耶路撒冷，快到橄榄山附近的伯法其和伯大尼两个村庄时，祂派了两个门徒， 2 对他们说：“你们去前面的村庄，一进村就会看见一头从来没有人骑过的驴驹拴在那里，你们把它解开牵来。 3 若有人问你们为什么这样做，就说，‘主要用它，很快会把它送回来。’” 4 他们进了村子，果然看见有一头驴驹拴在街道旁一户人家的门外，就上前解开它。 5 旁边站着的几个人就问他们：“你们为什么要解开这头驴驹？”
6 门徒依照耶稣的吩咐回答，那些人就让他们牵走了。 7 他们把驴驹牵到耶稣面前，将自己的外衣搭在驴背上，耶稣就骑了上去。 8 很多人把衣服铺在路上，有人将田间的树枝砍下来铺在路上。 9 大家前呼后拥，高声欢呼：
“和散那[d]！
奉主名来的当受称颂！
10 那将要来临的我祖大卫的国度当受称颂！
和散那归于至高之处的上帝！”
11 耶稣进了耶路撒冷，来到圣殿，巡视各处。那时天色已晚，耶稣便和十二门徒出城前往伯大尼。
咒诅无花果树
12 第二天，他们离开伯大尼后，耶稣饿了。 13 祂远远看见有一棵枝叶茂盛的无花果树，就走过去找果子吃。到了树下，却什么也找不到，只有满树的叶子，因为当时不是收无花果的季节。 14 祂对那棵树说：“愿无人再吃你的果子！”祂的门徒都听见了这句话。
洁净圣殿
15 他们来到耶路撒冷后，耶稣进入圣殿，赶走了里面做买卖的人，推翻了兑换钱币之人的桌子和卖鸽子之人的凳子， 16 不准人抬着货物穿过圣殿。 17 祂教导他们说：“圣经上不是记载‘我的殿必称为万民祷告的殿’吗？你们竟把它变成了贼窝。”
18 祭司长和律法教师听到这番话后，就策划如何杀害耶稣，只是有些怕祂，因为百姓都对祂的教导感到惊奇。 19 到了傍晚，耶稣和门徒去了城外。
无花果树的教训
20 早上，他们又经过那棵无花果树，看见它连根都枯了。 21 彼得想起昨天发生的事，就对耶稣说：“老师，你看！昨天你咒诅的无花果树已经枯了。”
22 耶稣说：“要对上帝有信心。 23 我实在告诉你们，不论何人，只要有信心，毫不疑惑，就是对这座山说，‘从这里挪开，投进大海里！’也必定为他成就。 24 所以我告诉你们，你们祷告时无论求什么，只要相信已经得到了，就必得到。 25 你们站着祷告的时候，若想起有人得罪了你们，就要饶恕他。这样，你们天上的父也会饶恕你们的过犯。 26 你们如果不饶恕别人，你们天上的父也不会饶恕你们的过犯。[e]”
质问耶稣的权柄
27 他们再次回到耶路撒冷。耶稣在圣殿里行走的时候，祭司长、律法教师和长老上前质问祂： 28 “你凭什么权柄做这些事？谁授权给你了？”
29 耶稣说：“我也要问你们一个问题，你们回答了，我就告诉你们我凭什么权柄做这些事。 30 约翰的洗礼是从天上来的还是从人来的？请回答我！”
31 他们彼此议论说：“如果我们说‘是从天上来的’，祂一定会问，‘那你们为什么不信他？’ 32 如果我们说‘是从人来的’，又怕触怒百姓，因为他们都相信约翰真的是先知。” 33 于是，他们回答说：“我们不知道。”耶稣说：“我也不告诉你们我凭什么权柄做这些事。”
凶狠的佃户
12 耶稣用比喻对他们说：“有人开辟了一个葡萄园，在四周筑起篱笆，又在园中挖了一个榨酒池，建了一座瞭望台，然后把葡萄园租给佃户，就出远门了。
2 “到葡萄成熟时，园主派一个奴仆去收取他该得的一份。 3 那些佃户却捉住那个奴仆，打了他一顿，使他空手而归。
4 “园主又差另一个奴仆去。这一次，佃户不但侮辱他，还把他打得头破血流。 5 园主再派一个奴仆前往，他们却把他杀掉了。园主后来派去的人不是挨打，就是被杀。 6 最后只剩下园主的爱子，园主就派他去，以为那些佃户会尊重他的儿子。 7 这班佃户却彼此商量说，‘这个就是园主的继承人。来吧！我们杀掉他，产业就归我们了。’
8 “于是他们抓住他，杀了他，把他抛到葡萄园外。 9 那么，园主会采取什么行动呢？他必定会来杀掉这些佃户，把葡萄园转给别人。 10 圣经上说，
“‘工匠丢弃的石头已成了房角石。
11 这是主的作为，
在我们看来奇妙莫测。’
你们没有读过这经文吗？”
12 他们听出这比喻是针对他们说的，就想逮捕耶稣，但又害怕百姓，只好先离开了。
纳税给凯撒的问题
13 后来，他们派了几个法利赛人和希律党人到耶稣那里，企图利用祂所说的话设计陷害祂。
14 他们上前对耶稣说：“老师，我们知道你诚实无伪，不看人的情面，因为你不以貌取人，而是按真理传上帝的道。那么，向凯撒纳税对不对呢？ 15 我们该不该纳呢？”耶稣看破他们的阴谋，就说：“你们为什么试探我呢？拿一个银币来给我看。”
16 他们就拿来一个银币，耶稣问他们：“上面刻的是谁的像和名号？”
他们说：“凯撒的。”
17 耶稣说：“属于凯撒的东西应该给凯撒，属于上帝的东西应该给上帝。”
他们听了这话，都很惊奇。
论复活
18 撒都该人向来不相信有复活的事，他们来问耶稣： 19 “老师，摩西为我们写下律例，如果一个人死了，遗下妻子，又没有儿女，他的兄弟就当娶嫂嫂，替哥哥传宗接代。 20 有弟兄七人，老大结了婚，没有孩子就死了。 21 二弟把大嫂娶过来，也没有生孩子就死了，三弟也是一样， 22 七个人都没有留下孩子。最后，那女人也死了。 23 那么，到复活的时候，她将是谁的妻子呢？因为七个人都娶过她。”
24 耶稣说：“你们弄错了，因为你们不明白圣经，也不知道上帝的能力。 25 死人复活之后，将不娶也不嫁，就像天上的天使一样。 26 关于死人复活的事，你们没有读过摩西书有关火中荆棘的记载吗？上帝对摩西说，‘我是亚伯拉罕的上帝，以撒的上帝，雅各的上帝。’ 27 上帝不是死人的上帝，而是活人的上帝。你们大错了！”
最大的诫命
28 有一位律法教师听到他们的辩论，觉得耶稣的回答很精彩，就走过去问道：“诫命中哪一条最重要呢？”
29 耶稣回答道：“最重要的诫命是，‘听啊，以色列！主——我们的上帝是独一的主。 30 你要全心、全情、全意、全力爱主——你的上帝’； 31 其次就是‘要爱邻如己’。再也没有任何诫命比这两条更重要了。”
32 那位律法教师说：“老师，你说的对，上帝只有一位，除祂以外，别无他神。 33 我们要全心、全意、全力爱祂，又要爱邻如己。这样做比献什么祭都好。”
34 耶稣见他答得很有智慧，就告诉他：“你离上帝的国不远了。”此后，没人再敢问耶稣问题了。
基督的身份
35 耶稣在圣殿里教导的时候，问道：“律法教师为什么说基督是大卫的后裔呢？ 36 大卫自己曾经受圣灵的感动，说，
“‘主对我主说，
你坐在我的右边，
等我使你的仇敌伏在你脚下。’
37 既然大卫自己称基督为主，基督又怎能是大卫的后裔呢？”百姓听得津津有味。 38 耶稣又教导他们，说：“你们要提防律法教师，他们爱穿着长袍招摇过市，喜欢人们在大街上问候他们， 39 又喜欢会堂里的上座和宴席中的首位。 40 他们侵吞寡妇的财产，还假意做冗长的祷告。这种人必受到更严厉的惩罚。”
穷寡妇的奉献
41 然后，耶稣走到圣殿的奉献箱对面坐下，看大家怎样奉献。很多财主奉献了大量的钱。 42 后来一个穷寡妇来了，投进了相当于一文钱的两个小铜钱。 43 耶稣叫门徒来，说：“我实在告诉你们，这位穷寡妇比其他人奉献的都多， 44 因为他们不过奉献了自己剩余的，但这穷寡妇却奉献了她赖以为生的。”
预言圣殿被毁
13 耶稣走出圣殿的时候，有一个门徒对祂说：“老师，你看！这是多么大的石头，多么宏伟的建筑啊！”
2 耶稣说：“你看见这宏伟的建筑了吗？将来它要被完全拆毁，找不到两块叠在一起的石头。”
3 耶稣面向圣殿坐在橄榄山上，彼得、雅各、约翰和安得烈私下来问祂： 4 “请告诉我们，这些事什么时候会发生？有什么预兆？”
5 耶稣对他们说：“你们要小心，免得被人迷惑。 6 将有很多人冒我的名来，说，‘我是基督’，欺骗许多人。
7 “你们听见战争爆发、战讯频传时，不要惊慌，因为这些事必然发生，只是末日还没有到。
8 “民族将与民族互斗，国家将与国家相争，各处将有地震和饥荒。这些只是灾难[f]的开始。
9 “你们要小心，因为你们将被送上法庭，将在会堂里受鞭打，又将为了我的缘故在官长和君王面前做见证。 10 不过，福音一定要先传遍天下。 11 你们被拘捕，受审讯的时候，不用预先考虑怎样辩解，到时候赐给你们什么话，你们就说什么话，因为那时候说话的不是你们自己，而是圣灵。
12 “那时，人必把自己的弟兄置于死地，父亲必把儿子置于死地，儿女必反叛父母，置他们于死地。 13 你们将为我的名而被众人憎恨，但坚忍到底的必定得救。
大灾难
14 “当你们看见‘那带来毁灭的可憎之物’站在不当站的地方时（读者须会意），住在犹太地区的人要逃到山上去； 15 在屋顶上的人不要下来，不要进房屋收拾行李； 16 在田间的人不要回家取外衣。 17 那时，孕妇和哺育婴儿的母亲们可就遭殃了！ 18 你们要祈求上帝使这些事不要在冬天发生， 19 因为那是上帝创造天地以来空前绝后的大灾难。 20 如果主不缩短灾期，恐怕没有人能活命，但为了祂所拣选的子民，祂已经缩短灾期。 21 那时，如果有人对你们说，‘看啊！基督在这里’，或说，‘基督在那里’，你们不要相信。 22 因为假基督和假先知将出现，行各种神迹奇事，如果可能，甚至会迷惑上帝拣选的子民。 23 你们要小心，我已经把一切预先告诉你们了。
人子降临
24 “大灾难过后，
太阳昏暗，
月亮无光，
25 星宿陨落，
天体震动。
26 那时，世人必看到人子驾着云、带着极大的能力和荣耀降临。 27 祂必差遣天使从四面八方、天涯海角招聚祂拣选的人。
28 “你们可以从无花果树学个道理。当无花果树发芽长叶的时候，你们就知道夏天快来了。 29 同样，当你们看见这些事情发生时，就知道人子快来了，就在门口。 30 我实在告诉你们，这个世代还没有过去，这一切都要发生。 31 天地都要过去，我的话却永远长存。
32 “但没有人知道那日子和时辰何时来到，连天上的天使和人子都不知道，只有天父知道。 33 你们要小心，警醒祷告，因为你们不知道那日子何时来到。
34 “这就好像一个人在出远门之前，把家中的事交给仆人，让他们各做各的工作，又吩咐守门的人要警醒。 35 所以你们要警醒，因为你们不知道主人什么时候回来，可能是黄昏，可能是夜半，也可能是黎明或早上。 36 别让他突然回来时看到你们在睡觉。 37 我劝你们也劝所有的人，要警醒！”
谋害耶稣
14 再过两天就是逾越节和除酵节，祭司长和律法教师正暗暗地找机会拘捕、杀害耶稣。
2 他们说：“我们不能在节期那天下手，以免在百姓中引起骚乱。”
耶稣受膏
3 耶稣在伯大尼村患过麻风病的西门家里吃饭，有个女人带了一瓶极贵重的纯哪哒香膏进来，把玉瓶打破，将香膏倒在耶稣头上。 4 有些人生气地彼此议论说：“为什么这样浪费？ 5 这瓶香膏可以卖三百多个银币[g]来周济穷人。”他们就责备那女人。
6 耶稣说：“随她吧！何必为难她呢？她在我身上做的是一件美事。 7 因为你们身边总会有穷人，你们随时都可以帮助他们，可是你们身边不会总有我。 8 她做了自己能做的。她是为我的安葬做准备，提前用香膏抹了我的身体。 9 我实在告诉你们，无论福音传到世界哪个角落，人们都会传扬这女人的事迹，纪念她。”
犹大出卖耶稣
10 十二门徒当中的加略人犹大去见祭司长，要把耶稣出卖给他们。 11 他们听了喜出望外，答应给他酬金。于是犹大伺机出卖耶稣。
最后的晚餐
12 除酵节的第一天，就是宰杀逾越节羔羊的那天，门徒问耶稣：“我们该到什么地方为你准备逾越节的晚餐呢？”
13 耶稣就派了两个门徒，并嘱咐他们：“你们进城会看到一个人带着一瓶水迎面而来，你们就跟着他。 14 他进哪一家，你们也跟着进去，对那家的主人说，‘我们的老师问你，祂的客房在哪里，祂要和门徒在里面吃逾越节的晚餐。’ 15 主人会带你们到楼上一间布置整齐的大房间，你们就在那里准备吧。”
16 两个门徒出去，进了城，所遇见的果然和耶稣所说的一样。他们预备了逾越节的晚餐。
17 傍晚时分，耶稣带着十二门徒来了。 18 用餐的时候，耶稣说：“我实在告诉你们，你们中间有一个人要出卖我，他现在正和我同桌吃饭。”
19 他们听了都感到不安，一个一个地问耶稣：“不是我吧？” 20 耶稣说：“是你们十二个人中的一个，他现在正和我一起在盘子里蘸饼吃。 21 人子一定会受害，正如圣经的记载，但出卖人子的人有祸了，他还不如不生在这世上！”
22 他们吃的时候，耶稣拿起饼来，祝谢后，便掰开，分给门徒，说：“拿去吃吧！这是我的身体。”
Mark 8:27-14:22
New International Version
Mark 8:27-14:22
New International Version
Peter Declares That Jesus Is the Messiah(A)
27 Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”
28 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist;(B) others say Elijah;(C) and still others, one of the prophets.”
29 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
Peter answered, “You are the Messiah.”(D)
30 Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about him.(E)
Jesus Predicts His Death(F)
31 He then began to teach them that the Son of Man(G) must suffer many things(H) and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law,(I) and that he must be killed(J) and after three days(K) rise again.(L) 32 He spoke plainly(M) about this, and Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.
33 But when Jesus turned and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter. “Get behind me, Satan!”(N) he said. “You do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”
The Way of the Cross
34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.(O) 35 For whoever wants to save their life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.(P) 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37 Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man(Q) will be ashamed of them(R) when he comes(S) in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
9 And he said to them, “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see that the kingdom of God has come(T) with power.”(U)
The Transfiguration(V)(W)
2 After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John(X) with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. 3 His clothes became dazzling white,(Y) whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. 4 And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus.
5 Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(Z) it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 6 (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.)
7 Then a cloud appeared and covered them, and a voice came from the cloud:(AA) “This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to him!”(AB)
8 Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.
9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone(AC) what they had seen until the Son of Man(AD) had risen from the dead. 10 They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.
11 And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”
12 Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man(AE) must suffer much(AF) and be rejected?(AG) 13 But I tell you, Elijah has come,(AH) and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”
Jesus Heals a Boy Possessed by an Impure Spirit(AI)
14 When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them. 15 As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with wonder and ran to greet him.
16 “What are you arguing with them about?” he asked.
17 A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech. 18 Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but they could not.”
19 “You unbelieving generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.”
20 So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.(AJ)
21 Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has he been like this?”
“From childhood,” he answered. 22 “It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.”
23 “‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.”(AK)
24 Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”
25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene,(AL) he rebuked the impure spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” he said, “I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”
26 The spirit shrieked, convulsed him violently and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He’s dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up.
28 After Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately,(AM) “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
29 He replied, “This kind can come out only by prayer.[b]”
Jesus Predicts His Death a Second Time(AN)
30 They left that place and passed through Galilee. Jesus did not want anyone to know where they were, 31 because he was teaching his disciples. He said to them, “The Son of Man(AO) is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him,(AP) and after three days(AQ) he will rise.”(AR) 32 But they did not understand what he meant(AS) and were afraid to ask him about it.
33 They came to Capernaum.(AT) When he was in the house,(AU) he asked them, “What were you arguing about on the road?” 34 But they kept quiet because on the way they had argued about who was the greatest.(AV)
35 Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”(AW)
36 He took a little child whom he placed among them. Taking the child in his arms,(AX) he said to them, 37 “Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.”(AY)
Whoever Is Not Against Us Is for Us(AZ)
38 “Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.”(BA)
39 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, 40 for whoever is not against us is for us.(BB) 41 Truly I tell you, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to the Messiah will certainly not lose their reward.(BC)
Causing to Stumble
42 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble,(BD) it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea.(BE) 43 If your hand causes you to stumble,(BF) cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell,(BG) where the fire never goes out.(BH) [44] [c] 45 And if your foot causes you to stumble,(BI) cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.(BJ) [46] [d] 47 And if your eye causes you to stumble,(BK) pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,(BL) 48 where
49 Everyone will be salted(BN) with fire.
50 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again?(BO) Have salt among yourselves,(BP) and be at peace with each other.”(BQ)
Divorce(BR)
10 Jesus then left that place and went into the region of Judea and across the Jordan.(BS) Again crowds of people came to him, and as was his custom, he taught them.(BT)
2 Some Pharisees(BU) 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.”(BV)
5 “It was because your hearts were hard(BW) that Moses wrote you this law,” Jesus replied. 6 “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’[f](BX) 7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,[g] 8 and the two will become one flesh.’[h](BY) 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.(BZ) 12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”(CA)
The Little Children and Jesus(CB)
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.(CC) 15 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”(CD) 16 And he took the children in his arms,(CE) placed his hands on them and blessed them.
The Rich and the Kingdom of God(CF)
17 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees(CG) before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(CH)
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.’[i]”(CI)
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,(CJ) and you will have treasure in heaven.(CK) Then come, follow me.”(CL)
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(CM) to enter the kingdom of God!”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is[j] to enter the kingdom of God!(CN) 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.”(CO)
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.”(CP)
28 Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!”(CQ)
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(CR) in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come(CS) eternal life.(CT) 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”(CU)
Jesus Predicts His Death a Third Time(CV)
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(CW) aside and told them what was going to happen to him. 33 “We are going up to Jerusalem,”(CX) he said, “and the Son of Man(CY) will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law.(CZ) 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(DA) and kill him.(DB) Three days later(DC) he will rise.”(DD)
The Request of James and John(DE)
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.”(DF)
38 “You don’t know what you are asking,”(DG) Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup(DH) I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?”(DI)
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,(DJ) 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,(DK) 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,(DL) and to give his life as a ransom for many.”(DM)
Blind Bartimaeus Receives His Sight(DN)
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,(DO) he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David,(DP) 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,(DQ) I want to see.”
52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.”(DR) Immediately he received his sight and followed(DS) Jesus along the road.
Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(DT)(DU)
11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany(DV) at the Mount of Olives,(DW) Jesus sent two of his disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden.(DX) Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’”
4 They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway.(DY) As they untied it, 5 some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” 6 They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. 7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. 8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. 9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,
“Hosanna![k]”
10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”(EA)
11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.(EB)
Jesus Curses a Fig Tree and Clears the Temple Courts(EC)(ED)(EE)
12 The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs.(EF) 14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.
15 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, 16 and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. 17 And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations’[m]?(EG) But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’[n]”(EH)
18 The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him,(EI) because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.(EJ)
19 When evening came, Jesus and his disciples[o] went out of the city.(EK)
20 In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. 21 Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi,(EL) look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”
22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly[p] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.(EM) 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.(EN) 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”(EO) [26] [q]
The Authority of Jesus Questioned(EP)
27 They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28 “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?”
29 Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!”
31 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘Of human origin’ …” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)(EQ)
33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”
Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
The Parable of the Tenants(ER)
12 Jesus then began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard.(ES) He put a wall around it, dug a pit for the winepress and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place. 2 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they seized him, beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 Then he sent another servant to them; they struck this man on the head and treated him shamefully. 5 He sent still another, and that one they killed. He sent many others; some of them they beat, others they killed.
6 “He had one left to send, a son, whom he loved. He sent him last of all,(ET) saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
7 “But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 So they took him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9 “What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10 Haven’t you read this passage of Scripture:
“‘The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;(EU)
11 the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes’[r]?”(EV)
12 Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd;(EW) so they left him and went away.(EX)
Paying the Imperial Tax to Caesar(EY)
13 Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians(EZ) to Jesus to catch him(FA) in his words. 14 They came to him and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay the imperial tax[s] to Caesar or not? 15 Should we pay or shouldn’t we?”
But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” 16 They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
“Caesar’s,” they replied.
17 Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”(FB)
And they were amazed at him.
Marriage at the Resurrection(FC)
18 Then the Sadducees,(FD) who say there is no resurrection,(FE) came to him with a question. 19 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.(FF) 20 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died without leaving any children. 21 The second one married the widow, but he also died, leaving no child. It was the same with the third. 22 In fact, none of the seven left any children. Last of all, the woman died too. 23 At the resurrection[t] whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?”
24 Jesus replied, “Are you not in error because you do not know the Scriptures(FG) or the power of God? 25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.(FH) 26 Now about the dead rising—have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the account of the burning bush, how God said to him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’[u]?(FI) 27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
The Greatest Commandment(FJ)
28 One of the teachers of the law(FK) came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.[v] 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’[w](FL) 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[x](FM) There is no commandment greater than these.”
32 “Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him.(FN) 33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”(FO)
34 When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.”(FP) And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.(FQ)
Whose Son Is the Messiah?(FR)(FS)
35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts,(FT) he asked, “Why do the teachers of the law say that the Messiah is the son of David?(FU) 36 David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit,(FV) declared:
37 David himself calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?”
The large crowd(FX) listened to him with delight.
Warning Against the Teachers of the Law
38 As he taught, Jesus said, “Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted with respect in the marketplaces, 39 and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.(FY) 40 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”
The Widow’s Offering(FZ)
41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put(GA) and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.
43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. 44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”(GB)
The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times(GC)
13 As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!”
2 “Do you see all these great buildings?” replied Jesus. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”(GD)
3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives(GE) opposite the temple, Peter, James, John(GF) and Andrew asked him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?”
5 Jesus said to them: “Watch out that no one deceives you.(GG) 6 Many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many. 7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 8 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.
9 “You must be on your guard. You will be handed over to the local councils and flogged in the synagogues.(GH) On account of me you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them. 10 And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. 11 Whenever you are arrested and brought to trial, do not worry beforehand about what to say. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.(GI)
12 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.(GJ) 13 Everyone will hate you because of me,(GK) but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.(GL)
14 “When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation’[z](GM) standing where it[aa] does not belong—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let no one on the housetop go down or enter the house to take anything out. 16 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 17 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!(GN) 18 Pray that this will not take place in winter, 19 because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world,(GO) until now—and never to be equaled again.(GP)
20 “If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. 21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it.(GQ) 22 For false messiahs and false prophets(GR) will appear and perform signs and wonders(GS) to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 23 So be on your guard;(GT) I have told you everything ahead of time.
24 “But in those days, following that distress,
“‘the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light;
25 the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[ab](GU)
26 “At that time people will see the Son of Man coming in clouds(GV) with great power and glory. 27 And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens.(GW)
28 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 29 Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it[ac] is near, right at the door. 30 Truly I tell you, this generation(GX) will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.(GY) 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.(GZ)
The Day and Hour Unknown
32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.(HA) 33 Be on guard! Be alert[ad]!(HB) You do not know when that time will come. 34 It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants(HC) in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”(HD)
Jesus Anointed at Bethany(HE)(HF)(HG)
14 Now the Passover(HH) and the Festival of Unleavened Bread were only two days away, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were scheming to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him.(HI) 2 “But not during the festival,” they said, “or the people may riot.”
3 While he was in Bethany,(HJ) reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.(HK)
4 Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, “Why this waste of perfume? 5 It could have been sold for more than a year’s wages[ae] and the money given to the poor.” And they rebuked her harshly.
6 “Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. 7 The poor you will always have with you,[af] and you can help them any time you want.(HL) But you will not always have me. 8 She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial.(HM) 9 Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world,(HN) what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”
10 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve,(HO) went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.(HP) 11 They were delighted to hear this and promised to give him money. So he watched for an opportunity to hand him over.
The Last Supper(HQ)(HR)
12 On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb,(HS) Jesus’ disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”
13 So he sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him. 14 Say to the owner of the house he enters, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 15 He will show you a large room upstairs,(HT) furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”
16 The disciples left, went into the city and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.
17 When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. 18 While they were reclining at the table eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me—one who is eating with me.”
19 They were saddened, and one by one they said to him, “Surely you don’t mean me?”
20 “It is one of the Twelve,” he replied, “one who dips bread into the bowl with me.(HU) 21 The Son of Man(HV) will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”
22 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it(HW) and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”
