马可福音 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
施洗者约翰预备道路
1 有关上帝的儿子耶稣基督的福音是这样开始的。
2 以赛亚先知书上说：
“看啊，
我要差遣我的使者在你前面为你预备道路。
3 他在旷野大声呼喊，
‘预备主的道，
修直祂的路。’”
4 果然，约翰出现了，他在旷野劝人悔改，接受洗礼，使罪得到赦免。 5 犹太全境和耶路撒冷的居民都到约翰面前承认他们的罪，在约旦河里接受他的洗礼。
6 约翰身穿骆驼毛的衣服，腰束皮带，吃的是蝗虫和野蜜。 7 他传道说：“在我之后，有一位能力比我更大的要来，我连弯腰替祂解鞋带也不配。 8 我是用水给你们施洗，但祂要用圣灵给你们施洗。”
耶稣受洗
9 那时，耶稣从加利利的拿撒勒来约旦河接受约翰的洗礼。 10 耶稣从水中一上来，就看见天开了，圣灵好像鸽子一样降在祂身上， 11 从天上有声音说：“你是我的爱子，我甚喜悦你。”
耶稣受试探
12 圣灵随即催促祂到旷野。 13 祂在旷野受撒旦的试探四十天。祂与野兽在一起，有天使服侍祂。
呼召四渔夫
14 约翰被捕后，耶稣来到加利利宣讲上帝的福音，说： 15 “时候到了，上帝的国临近了，你们要悔改，相信福音。”
16 耶稣沿着加利利湖边走，看见两个渔夫——西门和他的弟弟安得烈正在湖上撒网捕鱼。 17 耶稣对他们说：“来跟从我！我要使你们成为得人的渔夫。” 18 他们立刻抛下渔网，跟从了耶稣。
19 耶稣往前走了不远，又看见西庇太的两个儿子雅各和约翰正在船上补网， 20 便立刻呼召他们。他们就辞别父亲和船上的工人，跟从了耶稣。
传道赶鬼
21 他们到了迦百农，耶稣在安息日去会堂里讲道。 22 那里的人都很吃惊，因为祂教导他们时像个有权柄的人，不像律法教师。 23 当时会堂里有一个被污鬼附身的人喊道： 24 “拿撒勒的耶稣啊，我们和你有什么关系？你是来毁灭我们吗？我知道你是谁，你是上帝的圣者！”
25 耶稣责备它说：“住口，从他身上出来！”
26 污鬼使那人抽搐了一阵，大叫一声，就出来了。 27 在场的人十分惊讶，彼此议论说：“这是怎么回事？真是充满权柄的新教导啊！竟然连污鬼都服从祂的命令。” 28 于是，耶稣的名声立刻传遍了整个加利利。
医病赶鬼
29 耶稣同雅各和约翰离开会堂，来到西门和安得烈家。 30 当时西门的岳母正发烧，躺在床上，他们立刻把这事告诉耶稣。 31 耶稣走到她的床边，拉着她的手扶她起来，她的烧立刻退了，便起来服侍他们。
32 日落之后，有人把病人和被鬼附身的人都带来见耶稣。 33 全城的人都聚在门前。 34 耶稣医好了许多患各种疾病的人，又赶出很多鬼。祂不准鬼说话，因为鬼认识祂。
在加利利传道
35 第二天清早，天还没亮，耶稣就起来独自走到旷野去祷告。 36 西门和同伴们四处寻找耶稣， 37 找到了，便对祂说：“大家都在找你呢！”
38 耶稣却回答说：“我们到附近的乡镇去吧，我也好在那里传道，因为我就是为这事来的。”
39 于是，耶稣走遍加利利，在各会堂传道，赶鬼。
治好麻风病人
40 有一次，一个患麻风病的人来到耶稣面前，跪下央求：“只要你肯，一定能使我洁净。”
41 耶稣动了慈心，就伸手摸他，说：“我肯，你洁净了吧！” 42 那人的麻风病立即消失了，他就洁净了。 43 耶稣让他回去并郑重地叮嘱： 44 “不要把这事告诉别人，要去让祭司察看你的身体，并照摩西的规定献祭，向众人证明你已经洁净了。”
45 但那人离开之后，却到处传扬这件事，以致耶稣无法再公开进城。祂只能待在城外的旷野，可是人们仍从各处来找祂。
马可福音 1
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
施洗約翰(A)
1 神的兒子（有些抄本無“ 神的兒子”一句）耶穌基督福音的開始。
2 正如以賽亞先知的書上寫著：
“看哪，我差遣我的使者在你面前，
預備你的道路；
3 在曠野有呼喊者的聲音：
‘預備主的道，
修直他的路！’”
4 照這話，施洗的約翰在曠野出現了，傳講悔改的洗禮，使罪得赦。 5 猶太全地和全耶路撒冷的人，都出來到他那裡去，承認自己的罪，在約旦河裡受了他的洗。 6 約翰身穿駱駝毛的衣服，腰束皮帶，吃的是蝗蟲和野蜜。 7 他傳講說：“有一位在我以後來的，能力比我大，我就是彎腰給他解鞋帶都沒有資格。 8 我用水給你們施洗，他卻要用聖靈給你們施洗。”
耶穌受洗(B)
9 那時候耶穌從加利利的拿撒勒來，在約旦河裡受了約翰的洗。 10 他從水裡一上來，就看見天裂開了，聖靈仿佛鴿子降在他身上。 11 又有聲音從天上來說：“你是我的愛子，我喜悅你。”
耶穌受試探(C)
12 聖靈隨即催促耶穌到曠野去。 13 他在那裡四十天，受撒但的試探，和野獸在一起，有天使來服事他。
在加利利傳道(D)
14 約翰被捕以後，耶穌來到加利利，宣講 神的福音， 15 說：“時候到了， 神的國近了，你們應當悔改，相信福音。”
呼召四個門徒(E)
16 耶穌沿著加利利海邊行走，看見西門和他弟弟安得烈在海上撒網；他們是漁夫。 17 耶穌就對他們說：“來跟從我，我要使你們成為得人的漁夫。” 18 他們立刻撇下網，跟從了他。 19 耶穌稍往前走，看見西庇太的兒子雅各，和雅各的弟弟約翰，正在船上整理魚網， 20 他立即呼召他們。他們撇下父親西庇太和雇工在船上，就跟從他去了。
在迦百農趕出污靈(F)
21 他們到了迦百農，耶穌隨即在安息日進入會堂教導人。 22 大家對他的教訓都很驚奇，因為他教導他們，像一個有權柄的人，不像經學家。 23 就在那時，會堂裡有一個被污靈附著的人，喊叫起來， 24 說：“拿撒勒人耶穌，我們跟你有甚麼關係呢？你來毀滅我們嗎？我知道你是誰，你是 神的聖者。” 25 耶穌斥責他說：“住口！從他身上出來！” 26 污靈使那人抽瘋，大聲喊叫，就從他身上出來了。 27 眾人都很驚訝，於是彼此對問說：“這是怎麼一回事？是個有權能的新道理啊！他吩咐污靈，污靈竟服從了他！” 28 耶穌的名聲立刻傳遍了加利利一帶。
治病趕鬼(G)
29 他們一出會堂，就和雅各、約翰到西門和安得烈的家裡去。 30 西門的岳母正在發燒躺著，他們立刻告訴耶穌。 31 耶穌走到她面前，拉著她的手，扶她起來，熱就退了，她就服事他們。 32 到了黃昏，有人不斷把生病的和被鬼附的，都帶到耶穌面前。 33 全城的人都聚集在門口。 34 耶穌醫好了各樣的病，也趕出許多的鬼，並且不許鬼說話，因為鬼認識他。
在加利利傳道趕鬼(H)
35 次日凌晨，天還沒有亮，耶穌起身出去，來到荒野的地方，在那裡禱告。 36 西門和那些跟他在一起的人就去尋找耶穌。 37 他們找到了，就對他說：“大家都在找你呢！” 38 耶穌對他們說：“我們到鄰近的鄉鎮去吧，我也好在那裡傳道，因為我就是為這事而來的。” 39 於是他走遍加利利全地，在他們的會堂裡傳道，並且趕鬼。
治好痲風病人(I)
40 有一個患痲風的人，來到耶穌跟前，跪下求他說：“如果你肯，必能使我潔淨。” 41 耶穌動了憐憫的心，就伸手摸他，說：“我肯，你潔淨了吧！” 42 痲風立刻離開了他，他就潔淨了。 43 耶穌打發那人離開以前，嚴厲地吩咐他， 44 說：“你千萬不可把這事告訴任何人，你只要去給祭司檢查，並且照著摩西所規定的，為你得潔淨獻祭，好向大家作證。” 45 但那人出來，竟任意傳講，就把這事傳開了，以致耶穌不能再公開進城，只好留在外邊荒野的地方；然而還是有人從各處到他那裡去。
Mark 1
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
I. The Preparation for the Public Ministry of Jesus[a]
Chapter 1
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ [the Son of God].[b]
The Preaching of John the Baptist. 2 (A)As it is written in Isaiah the prophet:[c](B)
“Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you;
he will prepare your way.
3 (C)A voice of one crying out in the desert:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord,
make straight his paths.’”
4 John [the] Baptist appeared in the desert proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 People of the whole Judean countryside and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem were going out to him and were being baptized by him in the Jordan River as they acknowledged their sins. 6 John was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist.[d] He fed on locusts and wild honey. 7 And this is what he proclaimed: “One mightier than I is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals. 8 [e](D)I have baptized you with water; he will baptize you with the holy Spirit.”
The Baptism of Jesus. 9 (E)It happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John. 10 On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon him.[f] 11 (F)And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”
The Temptation of Jesus.[g] 12 At once the Spirit drove him out into the desert,(G) 13 and he remained in the desert for forty days, tempted by Satan. He was among wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.
II. The Mystery of Jesus
The Beginning of the Galilean Ministry. 14 (H)After John had been arrested,[h] Jesus came to Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God: 15 (I)“This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
The Call of the First Disciples.[i] 16 (J)As he passed by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting their nets into the sea; they were fishermen. 17 Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” 18 Then they abandoned their nets and followed him. 19 He walked along a little farther and saw James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They too were in a boat mending their nets. 20 Then he called them. So they left their father Zebedee in the boat along with the hired men and followed him.
The Cure of a Demoniac. 21 [j](K)Then they came to Capernaum, and on the sabbath he entered the synagogue and taught. 22 (L)The people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes. 23 [k]In their synagogue was a man with an unclean spirit; 24 [l]he cried out, “What have you to do with us,[m] Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!” 25 Jesus rebuked him and said, “Quiet! Come out of him!” 26 The unclean spirit convulsed him and with a loud cry came out of him. 27 All were amazed and asked one another, “What is this? A new teaching with authority. He commands even the unclean spirits and they obey him.” 28 His fame spread everywhere throughout the whole region of Galilee.
The Cure of Simon’s Mother-in-Law. 29 (M)On leaving the synagogue he entered the house of Simon and Andrew with James and John. 30 Simon’s mother-in-law lay sick with a fever. They immediately told him about her. 31 He approached, grasped her hand, and helped her up. Then the fever left her and she waited on them.
Other Healings. 32 When it was evening, after sunset, they brought to him all who were ill or possessed by demons. 33 The whole town was gathered at the door. 34 He cured many who were sick with various diseases, and he drove out many demons, not permitting them to speak because they knew him.
Jesus Leaves Capernaum. 35 (N)Rising very early before dawn, he left and went off to a deserted place, where he prayed. 36 Simon and those who were with him pursued him 37 and on finding him said, “Everyone is looking for you.” 38 He told them, “Let us go on to the nearby villages that I may preach there also. For this purpose have I come.” 39 So he went into their synagogues, preaching and driving out demons throughout the whole of Galilee.
The Cleansing of a Leper. 40 (O)A leper[n] came to him [and kneeling down] begged him and said, “If you wish, you can make me clean.” 41 Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand, touched him, and said to him, “I do will it. Be made clean.”(P) 42 The leprosy left him immediately, and he was made clean.(Q) 43 Then, warning him sternly, he dismissed him at once. 44 Then he said to him, “See that you tell no one anything, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses prescribed; that will be proof for them.”(R) 45 The man went away and began to publicize the whole matter. He spread the report abroad so that it was impossible for Jesus to enter a town openly. He remained outside in deserted places, and people kept coming to him from everywhere.
Footnotes
- 1:1–13 The prologue of the Gospel according to Mark begins with the title (Mk 1:1) followed by three events preparatory to Jesus’ preaching: (1) the appearance in the Judean wilderness of John, baptizer, preacher of repentance, and precursor of Jesus (Mk 1:2–8); (2) the baptism of Jesus, at which a voice from heaven acknowledges Jesus to be God’s Son, and the holy Spirit descends on him (Mk 1:9–11); (3) the temptation of Jesus by Satan (Mk 1:12–13).
- 1:1 The gospel of Jesus Christ [the Son of God]: the “good news” of salvation in and through Jesus, crucified and risen, acknowledged by the Christian community as Messiah (Mk 8:29; 14:61–62) and Son of God (Mk 1:11; 9:7; 15:39), although some important manuscripts here omit the Son of God.
- 1:2–3 Although Mark attributes the prophecy to Isaiah, the text is a combination of Mal 3:1; Is 40:3; Ex 23:20; cf. Mt 11:10; Lk 7:27. John’s ministry is seen as God’s prelude to the saving mission of his Son. The way of the Lord: this prophecy of Deutero-Isaiah concerning the end of the Babylonian exile is here applied to the coming of Jesus; John the Baptist is to prepare the way for him.
- 1:6 Clothed in camel’s hair…waist: the Baptist’s garb recalls that of Elijah in 2 Kgs 1:8. Jesus speaks of the Baptist as Elijah who has already come (Mk 9:11–13; Mt 17:10–12; cf. Mal 3:23–24; Lk 1:17).
- 1:8–9 Through the life-giving baptism with the holy Spirit (Mk 1:8), Jesus will create a new people of God. But first he identifies himself with the people of Israel in submitting to John’s baptism of repentance and in bearing on their behalf the burden of God’s decisive judgment (Mk 1:9; cf. Mk 1:4). As in the desert of Sinai, so here in the wilderness of Judea, Israel’s sonship with God is to be renewed.
- 1:10–11 He saw the heavens…and the Spirit…upon him: indicating divine intervention in fulfillment of promise. Here the descent of the Spirit on Jesus is meant, anointing him for his ministry; cf. Is 11:2; 42:1; 61:1; 63:9. A voice…with you I am well pleased: God’s acknowledgment of Jesus as his unique Son, the object of his love. His approval of Jesus is the assurance that Jesus will fulfill his messianic mission of salvation.
- 1:12–13 The same Spirit who descended on Jesus in his baptism now drives him into the desert for forty days. The result is radical confrontation and temptation by Satan who attempts to frustrate the work of God. The presence of wild beasts may indicate the horror and danger of the desert regarded as the abode of demons or may reflect the paradise motif of harmony among all creatures; cf. Is 11:6–9. The presence of ministering angels to sustain Jesus recalls the angel who guided the Israelites in the desert in the first Exodus (Ex 14:19; 23:20) and the angel who supplied nourishment to Elijah in the wilderness (1 Kgs 19:5–7). The combined forces of good and evil were present to Jesus in the desert. His sustained obedience brings forth the new Israel of God there where Israel’s rebellion had brought death and alienation.
- 1:14–15 After John had been arrested: in the plan of God, Jesus was not to proclaim the good news of salvation prior to the termination of the Baptist’s active mission. Galilee: in the Marcan account, scene of the major part of Jesus’ public ministry before his arrest and condemnation. The gospel of God: not only the good news from God but about God at work in Jesus Christ. This is the time of fulfillment: i.e., of God’s promises. The kingdom of God…Repent: see note on Mt 3:2.
- 1:16–20 These verses narrate the call of the first Disciples. See notes on Mt 4:18–22 and Mt 4:20.
- 1:21–45 The account of a single day’s ministry of Jesus on a sabbath in and outside the synagogue of Capernaum (Mk 1:21–31) combines teaching and miracles of exorcism and healing. Mention is not made of the content of the teaching but of the effect of astonishment and alarm on the people. Jesus’ teaching with authority, making an absolute claim on the hearer, was in the best tradition of the ancient prophets, not of the scribes. The narrative continues with events that evening (Mk 1:32–34; see notes on Mt 8:14–17) and the next day (Mk 1:35–39). The cleansing in Mk 1:40–45 stands as an isolated story.
- 1:23 An unclean spirit: so called because of the spirit’s resistance to the holiness of God. The spirit knows and fears the power of Jesus to destroy his influence; cf. Mk 1:32, 34; 3:11; 6:13.
- 1:24–25 The Holy One of God: not a confession but an attempt to ward off Jesus’ power, reflecting the notion that use of the precise name of an opposing spirit would guarantee mastery over him. Jesus silenced the cry of the unclean spirit and drove him out of the man.
- 1:24 What have you to do with us?: see note on Jn 2:4.
- 1:40 A leper: for the various forms of skin disease, see Lv 13:1–50 and the note on Lv 13:2–4. There are only two instances in the Old Testament in which God is shown to have cured a leper (Nm 12:10–15; 2 Kgs 5:1–14). The law of Moses provided for the ritual purification of a leper. In curing the leper, Jesus assumes that the priests will reinstate the cured man into the religious community. See also note on Lk 5:14.
Mark 1
King James Version
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
11 And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
18 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.
19 And when he had gone a little farther thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.
20 And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
27 And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.
31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.
38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.
42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
44 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
