治好手枯的人(A)

耶稣又进了会堂,在那里有一个人,他的一只手枯干了。 众人窥探他会不会在安息日医治那个人,好去控告他。 耶稣对那一只手枯干了的人说:“起来,站在当中!” 又对他们说:“在安息日哪一样是可以作的呢:作好事还是坏事?救命还是害命?”他们一声不响。 耶稣怒目环视他们,因他们的心刚硬而难过,就对那人说:“伸出手来!”他把手一伸,手就复原了。 法利赛人出来,立刻和希律党人商量怎样对付耶稣,好除掉他。

许多人到海边找耶稣(B)

耶稣和门徒退到海边去,一大群从加利利来的人跟着他; 还有许多人听见他所作的一切事,就从犹太、耶路撒冷、以土迈、约旦河外和推罗、西顿一带地方来到他跟前。 因为人多,耶稣就吩咐门徒为他预备一只小船,免得众人拥挤他。 10 他医好了许多人,所以凡有病的都挤过来要摸他。 11 污灵每次看到他,就仆倒在他面前,大声喊叫说:“你是 神的儿子!” 12 耶稣再三严厉地吩咐他们,不要把他的身分张扬出去。

选立十二使徒(C)

13 耶稣上了山,呼召自己所要的人,他们就来了。 14 他选立了十二个人,称他们为使徒(有些抄本无“称他们为使徒”一句),要他们跟自己常在一起,好差遣他们去传道, 15 又有权柄赶鬼。 16 他选立的十二个人是:西门(耶稣给他起名叫彼得), 17 西庇太的儿子雅各,和雅各的弟弟约翰(耶稣给他们二人起名叫半尼其,就是“雷子”的意思), 18 安得烈、腓力、巴多罗迈、马太、多马、亚勒腓的儿子雅各、达太、激进派的西门, 19 以及加略人犹大,就是出卖耶稣的那个人。

亵渎圣灵的罪不得赦免(D)

20 耶稣进了屋子,群众又聚了来,以致他们连饭都不能吃, 21 那些和他在一起的人听见了,就出来抓住他,因为他们说他癫狂了。

22 从耶路撒冷下来的经学家说:“他有别西卜附在身上!”又说:“他靠着鬼王赶鬼。” 23 耶稣把他们叫来,用比喻对他们说:“撒但怎能赶逐撒但呢? 24 一国若自相纷争,那国就站立不住; 25 一家若自相纷争,那家就站立不住。 26 如果撒但自相攻打纷争,不但站立不住,而且还要灭亡。 27 谁都不能进入壮汉的家,抢夺他的财物,除非先把壮汉捆绑起来,才可以抢劫他的家。 28 我实在告诉你们,世人的一切罪和一切亵渎的话,都可以得到赦免; 29 但亵渎圣灵的,就永世不得赦免,他还要担当罪恶到永远。” 30 耶稣说这话,是因为他们说他有污灵附在身上。

谁是耶稣的母亲和弟兄(E)

31 耶稣的母亲和弟弟来了,站在外面,传话给他,叫他出来。 32 有许多人正围坐在耶稣身边,他们告诉他:“你看,你的母亲和弟弟(有些抄本在此有“妹妹”一词)在外面找你。” 33 耶稣回答他们:“谁是我的母亲,我的弟兄呢?” 34 于是四面观看那些围坐的人,说:“你们看,我的母亲!我的弟兄! 35 凡遵行 神旨意的,就是我的弟兄姊妹和母亲了。”

耶稣在安息日里为人治病

耶稣又来到了犹太会堂。那里有个人的手残废了。 一些犹太人想抓住把柄来控告耶稣,就密切地注视着他,看他是否为这个人治病。 耶稣对那个手残的人说∶“你站到大家面前来!”

接着他对众人说∶“在安息日,人应该做好事呢,还是应该做坏事?应该救人呢,还是应该杀人?”但是没人作声。

耶稣气愤地看着这些人们。他很为他们的顽固而忧伤,耶稣对残手人说∶“把手伸出来。”那人一伸手,手便被治好了。 法利赛人离开了,他们去和希律党人定计,想法杀掉耶稣。

众人跟随耶稣

耶稣和门徒们离开当地到加利利湖去。很多人跟随着他们,这些人来自加利利、犹太地、 耶路撒冷、以土买、约旦河对岸和推罗、西顿等地。这些人都是听说了耶稣所作所为来跟随他的。 因为人多,耶稣让门徒为他准备一条小船,以免受到拥挤。 10 耶稣为很多人治好了病,结果,凡是有病的人都拼命朝他身边挤,想要触摸他。 11 邪灵只要一见到耶稣,就匍匐在他面前,大叫道∶“你是上帝之子!” 12 耶稣厉声警告他们,不许他们告诉人们他是谁。

耶稣挑选他的十二名使徒

13 接着,耶稣登上了一座山,他召集他想要的那些人到他那里去,那些人来了。 14 耶稣挑选出十二个人,称他们为使徒 [a]。耶稣让他们与自己在一起,然后派他们出外传道, 15 而且都具有驱鬼的权力。 16 他挑选的十二个人是:西门(耶稣给他取名叫彼得)、 17 西庇太的儿子雅各和雅各的兄弟约翰(耶稣给他们取名叫半尼其,意为雷之子)、 18 安得烈、腓力、巴多罗买、马太、多马、亚勒腓的儿子雅各、达太和激进派的西门, 19 还有后来出卖耶稣的加略人犹大。

耶稣的力量来自上帝

20 然后,耶稣回到家乡。很多人又聚集在那里,人多的使耶稣和他的门徒们都没法吃饭。 21 耶稣家人听说这些事,就出来管他,因为人们说耶稣疯了。

22 从耶路撒冷来的律法师们说∶“他被别西卜附体,他是依仗这个魔王的力量驱鬼的!”

23 耶稣把他们叫到一起,用寓言来教导人们,他说∶“撒旦不会从人们身上驱逐自己的鬼。 24 如果一个王国与自己做对,就不能继续; 25 家庭自相分争,就不能持续。 26 如果撒旦与自己和他的子民做对,他就要末日临头。 27 除非先把壮汉捆起来,谁也休想闯进他家里抢夺他的财产。 28 实话告诉你们:人所犯的一切罪行和冒犯上帝的话都可以得到宽恕, 29 但是亵渎圣灵的人是永远得不到宽恕的,他永远有罪。”

30 耶稣说这番话,是因为那些律法师们说他被邪灵附体。

门徒是真正的家人

31 这时耶稣的母亲和兄弟们来了。他们站在屋子外面,叫人进门去找耶稣。 32 有很多人正围坐在耶稣身边,他们当中有人对耶稣说∶“快瞧,你的妈妈和兄弟姐妹在外边等你呢。”

33 耶稣答道∶“谁是我的母亲和兄弟?” 34 他环顾坐在屋里的人,说∶“我的母亲和兄弟就坐在我身边呢! 35 谁执行上帝的旨意,谁就是我的母亲和兄弟姐妹。”

治好手枯的人

耶穌又進了會堂,那裡有個人一隻手是萎縮的。 當時有好些人密切地監視耶穌,看祂是否會在安息日醫治這個人,好找藉口控告祂。

耶穌對那一隻手萎縮的人說:「起來,站在中間。」 然後問眾人:「在安息日應該行善還是作惡?救人還是害人?」他們都不吭聲。

耶穌生氣地看著四周這些人,為他們的心剛硬而感到極其難過。祂對那人說:「把手伸出來!」那人一伸手,手就立刻復原了。 法利賽人離開後,立刻和希律黨的人策劃怎樣除掉耶穌。

群眾跟隨耶穌

耶穌和門徒退到湖邊,有一大群人從加利利來跟隨祂。 還有很多人聽見耶穌所做的一切,就從猶太、耶路撒冷、以土買、約旦河東,甚至泰爾和西頓一帶來找祂。 耶穌見人多,就吩咐門徒為祂預備一條小船,以免人群擁擠祂。 10 因為祂醫好了很多人,凡有疾病的人都想擠過來摸祂。 11 每當污鬼看見祂,就俯伏在祂面前,大喊:「你是上帝的兒子!」 12 耶穌卻嚴厲地吩咐牠們不要洩露祂的身分。

選立十二使徒

13 耶穌上了山,把合自己心意的人召集到跟前, 14 從中選出十二個人,設立他們為使徒,讓他們跟隨自己,並且差遣他們出去傳道, 15 賜他們趕鬼的權柄。

16 這十二位使徒是:西門——耶穌給他取名叫彼得、 17 西庇太的兒子雅各和雅各的兄弟約翰——耶穌給他們取名叫「半尼其」,就是「雷霆之子」的意思、 18 安得烈、腓力、巴多羅買、馬太、多馬、亞勒腓的兒子雅各、達太、激進黨人西門、 19 及後來出賣耶穌的加略人猶大。

耶穌和別西卜

20 耶穌剛進家門,人群又聚集起來,以致祂和門徒連吃飯的時間也沒有。 21 祂的親屬聽見這個消息,就出來要拉住祂,因為人們說祂瘋了。

22 從耶路撒冷下來的律法教師說:「祂被別西卜附體。」又說:「祂是靠鬼王趕鬼。」

23 耶穌叫他們來,用比喻對他們說:「撒旦怎能驅逐撒旦呢? 24 一個國內部自相紛爭,必然崩潰。 25 一個家內部自相紛爭,必然破裂。 26 同樣,撒旦如果與自己為敵,自相紛爭,就站立不住,必然滅亡。 27 沒有人能進入壯漢家裡搶奪他的財物,除非先把那壯漢捆綁起來,才有可能搶劫他的家。

28 「我實在告訴你們,世人一切的罪和褻瀆的話都可以得到赦免, 29 唯有褻瀆聖靈的人永遠得不到赦免,他們要永遠擔罪。」 30 耶穌這樣說是因為他們誣衊祂被污鬼附身。

誰是耶穌的親人

31 這時候,耶穌的母親和兄弟來了,他們站在外面,託人叫耶穌。 32 有許多人圍坐在耶穌身邊,他們告訴祂說:「看啊!你的母親和兄弟在外面找你。」

33 耶穌說:「誰是我的母親?誰是我的弟兄?」 34 然後祂望著周圍坐著的人說:「看啊!我的母親、我的弟兄在這裡。 35 凡遵行上帝旨意的人就是我的弟兄、姊妹和母親。」

Jesus makes a man well

Another time, Jesus went into the Jewish meeting place. A man was there. His hand was very small and weak, so he could not use it. Some Pharisees were watching Jesus carefully. They wanted to find a reason to say that Jesus was doing wrong things. It was the Jewish day of rest. So the Pharisees watched Jesus to see if he would make the man well on this day. Jesus said to the man, ‘Stand here in front of everyone.’

Then Jesus said to the Pharisees, ‘Is it right for us to do good things on our day of rest? Or should we do bad things? Should we save a person's life? Or should we kill people?’

Nobody said anything.

Jesus looked round at everybody. He felt angry with them. He also felt sad because they did not want to learn. Then he said to the man, ‘Lift up your hand.’ The man lifted his hand and it became well. He could use it again. The Pharisees left the meeting place immediately. They went to meet with some other people who were friends with the ruler, Herod.[a] The Pharisees talked with them about how they could kill Jesus.

Crowds follow Jesus

Jesus left that place and he went away to Lake Galilee with his disciples. A large crowd of people from Galilee followed them. Many people also came to him from Judea, from Jerusalem and from a region of Israel called Idumea. They also came from places on the other side of the Jordan River, and from the towns called Tyre and Sidon. Many people had heard about the things that Jesus was doing. That is why all these people came to him. The crowd was very large. So Jesus asked his disciples to prepare a small boat for him. They did this so that the people would not push against him. 10 Sick people were pushing to the front, because they were trying to touch him. They knew that he had made many people well. 11 Often, a person with a bad spirit saw Jesus. Then, the spirit caused the person to fall down on the ground in front of Jesus. The spirit caused that person to shout out, ‘You are the Son of God.’ 12 Jesus often had to say to the bad spirits, ‘You must not tell anyone who I am.’

Jesus chooses 12 apostles

13 Jesus went up a mountain. He chose some men and he asked them to go there with him. So they met together with him there. 14 He chose a group of 12 men. He called them his apostles.[b] He wanted them to be with him. And he would send them to teach people about God. 15 He gave these men authority to cause bad spirits to leave people. 16 These are the names of the 12 apostles:

Simon, (Jesus called him Peter).

17 James and John who were the sons of Zebedee. Jesus called them ‘Boanerges’. It means ‘men who are like thunder’.

18 Andrew,

Philip,

Bartholomew,

Matthew,[c]

Thomas,

James, who was the son of Alphaeus,

Thaddaeus,[d]

Simon the Zealot

19 and Judas Iscariot, who later gave Jesus to his enemies.

Jesus talks about Satan

20 Then Jesus went into a house. A crowd of people came together there again. There were so many people that Jesus and his disciples were not even able to eat. 21 People told his family what was happening. So they went to take him away with them. They thought that Jesus was crazy.[e]

22 Some teachers of God's Law came from Jerusalem. They said, ‘Jesus has a bad spirit called Beelzebul in him. That is Satan, the one who rules all the bad spirits. This man can send bad spirits out of people because Satan gives him authority.’[f]

23 So Jesus spoke to the teachers of God's Law. He said, ‘Come here and listen to me.’ He used stories to explain to them, ‘Satan would not fight against himself! 24 If armies in the same country start to fight each other, then they will destroy their own country. 25 And if the people in one family start to fight against each other, they will destroy their own family. 26 So Satan would not attack himself. If he did that, he would destroy his own power. That would be the end of him. 27 Nobody can easily go into the house of a strong man to rob him. To do that, he must first tie up the strong man. Then he can take away all that man's valuable things. 28 I tell you this: God can forgive all the wrong things that people do. He can also forgive people who say bad things against him. 29 But God will never forgive people who say bad things against the Holy Spirit. Those people will always be guilty of a terrible sin.’

30 Jesus said that to the teachers of God's Law, because they had said, ‘Jesus has a bad spirit in him.’

Jesus' mother and his brothers come to look for him

31 Then, Jesus' mother and his brothers arrived and they stood outside the house. They sent someone into the house with a message. They wanted Jesus to come out to speak to them. 32 A crowd of people was sitting around Jesus. Somebody said to him, ‘Look! Your mother and brothers are outside. They are looking for you.’

33 Jesus replied, ‘I will tell you who my mother and brothers really are.’

34 Then he looked at the people who were sitting around him. He said, ‘Look! Here are my mother and my brothers! 35 My brothers and sisters and my mother are the people who do what God wants.’[g]
