马可福音 8
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
使四千人吃饱
8 在那些日子里，又一次，有一大群人，他们没有什么东西吃。耶稣召来门徒们，对他们说： 2 “我怜悯这群人，因为他们与我在一起已经三天了，也没有什么东西吃。 3 如果我让他们饿着肚子回家，他们会在路上晕倒，因为有些人从远处而来。”
4 他的门徒们回答：“在这旷野，从哪里能得食物让这些人吃饱呢？”
5 耶稣问他们：“你们有多少饼呢？”
他们回答说：“七个。” 6 耶稣就吩咐众人坐在地上，于是拿起这七个饼，祝谢以后，掰开，不断递给他的门徒们，让他们分发。门徒们就分给众人； 7 他们还有几条小鱼，耶稣祝福了，就吩咐把它们也分给众人。 8 他们吃了，并且吃饱了。然后，他们把剩下的碎块收拾起来，装满了[a]七个筐子。 9 当时约有四千人[b]。耶稣遣散了他们， 10 随即与他的门徒们一起上船，来到达玛努达[c]地区。
法利赛人与希律的酵
11 有些法利赛人出来，开始和耶稣辩论。他们试探耶稣，向他要求一个从天上来的神迹。 12 耶稣灵里深深地叹息，就说：“这世代为什么在寻求神迹呢？我确实地告诉你们：绝不会有神迹赐给这世代。” 13 于是他就离开他们，又上船往对岸去。
14 门徒们忘了带饼，船上除了一个饼，再没有别的了。 15 耶稣吩咐他们说：“你们要注意，要当心法利赛人的酵母和希律的酵母。”
16 门徒们因为没有饼，就彼此讨论。 17 耶稣知道了，就问他们：“你们为什么讨论没有饼的事呢？你们还不明白，还不领悟，还是硬着心吗？ 18 你们有眼睛却看不见，有耳朵却听不见吗？[d]难道不记得吗？ 19 当我掰开那五个饼给五千人的时候，你们收拾的碎块装满了几个篮子呢？”
门徒们回答说：“十二个。”
20 “那七个饼给四千人的时候，你们收拾的碎块装满了几个筐子呢？”
门徒们回答说：“七个。”
21 耶稣对他们说：“你们还不领悟吗？”
开盲人的眼睛
22 他们来到伯赛达，有人带来一个瞎眼的，恳求耶稣摸他。 23 耶稣牵着瞎眼之人的手，领他到村子外面，吐唾沫在他的眼睛上，按手在他身上，问他：“你是否看见什么？”
24 他抬头一看，说：“我看见一些人！看起来好像树在走路！”
25 然后耶稣又按手在他的眼睛上，他就看得清清楚楚了。他痊愈了，就清楚地看见了一切。 26 耶稣叫他回家，并说：“不要进这村子[e]。”
彼得认耶稣为基督
27 耶稣和他的门徒们往凯撒里亚菲利彼的那些村庄去。在路上，耶稣问他的门徒们，说：“人们说我是谁？”
28 他们回答他，说：“是施洗者[f]约翰，有的说是以利亚，也有的说是先知中的一位。”
29 耶稣又问他们：“那么你们呢？你们说我是谁？”
彼得回答说：“你是基督！”
30 耶稣就告诫他们不要把有关他的事告诉任何人。
预言受难与复活
31 耶稣开始教导他们说：“人子必须受很多苦害，被长老们、祭司长们和经文士们弃绝，并且被杀，然后在第三天要复活。” 32 耶稣公开地讲这些事，彼得把耶稣拉到一边，开始劝阻他。
33 但耶稣转过身，看了看他的门徒们，就斥责彼得，说：“撒旦，退到我后面去！因为你不是思想神的事，而是思想人的事。”
背起你的十字架
34 于是，耶稣把众人和他的门徒们一起召来，对他们说：“如果有人想要跟从我，他就当舍弃自己，背起自己的十字架，然后跟从我。 35 因为凡想要保全[g]自己生命的，将失去生命；凡为我和福音的缘故失去自己生命的，将保全[h]生命。 36 一个人就是赚得了全世界，却赔上了自己的生命[i]，到底有什么益处呢？ 37 人到底能拿什么来换回自己的生命[j]呢？ 38 在这淫乱、罪恶的世代，一个人如果以我和我的话为耻，当人子在他父的荣耀中，与圣天使们一起来临的时候，也要以这个人为耻。”

Jesus Feeds Four Thousand
(Matthew 15.32-39)
8 One day another large crowd gathered around Jesus. They had not brought along anything to eat. So Jesus called his disciples together and said, 2 “I feel sorry for these people. They have been with me for three days, and they don't have anything to eat. 3 Some of them live a long way from here. If I send them away hungry, they might faint on their way home.”
4 The disciples said, “This place is like a desert. Where can we find enough food to feed such a crowd?”
5 Jesus asked them how much food they had. They replied, “Seven small loaves of bread.”[a]
6 After Jesus told the crowd to sit down, he took the seven loaves and gave thanks. He then broke the loaves and handed them to his disciples, who passed them out to the crowd. 7 They also had a few little fish, and after Jesus had blessed these, he told the disciples to pass them around.
8-9 The crowd of about 4,000 people ate all they wanted, and the leftovers filled seven large baskets.
As soon as Jesus had sent the people away, 10 he got into the boat with the disciples and crossed to the territory near Dalmanutha.[b]
A Sign from Heaven
(Matthew 16.1-4)
11 (A) The Pharisees came out and started an argument with Jesus. They wanted to test him by asking for a sign from heaven. 12 (B) Jesus groaned and said, “Why are you always looking for a sign? I can promise you that you will not be given one!” 13 Then he left them. He again got into a boat and crossed over to the other side of the lake.
The Yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod
(Matthew 16.5-12)
14 The disciples had forgotten to bring any bread, and they had only one loaf with them in the boat. 15 (C) Jesus warned them, “Watch out! Guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod.”[c]
16 The disciples talked this over and said to each other, “He must be saying this because we don't have any bread.”
17 Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you talking about not having any bread? Don't you understand? Are your minds still closed? 18 (D) Are your eyes blind and your ears deaf? Don't you remember 19 how many baskets of leftovers you picked up when I fed those 5,000 people with only five small loaves of bread?”
“Yes,” the disciples answered. “There were twelve baskets.”
20 Jesus then asked, “And how many baskets of leftovers did you pick up when I broke seven small loaves of bread for those 4,000 people?”
“Seven,” they answered.
21 “Don't you know what I am talking about by now?” Jesus asked.
Jesus Heals a Blind Man at Bethsaida
22 As Jesus and his disciples were going into Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch the man. 23 Jesus took him by the hand and led him out of the village, where he spit into the man's eyes. He placed his hands on the blind man and asked him if he could see anything. 24 The man looked up and said, “I see people, but they look like trees walking around.”
25 Once again Jesus placed his hands on the man's eyes, and this time the man stared. His eyes were healed, and he saw everything clearly. 26 Jesus said to him, “You may return home now, but don't go into the village.”
Who Is Jesus?
(Matthew 16.13-20; Luke 9.18-21)
27 Jesus and his disciples went to the villages near the town of Caesarea Philippi. As they were walking along, he asked them, “What do people say about me?”
28 (E) The disciples answered, “Some say you are John the Baptist or maybe Elijah.[d] Others say you are one of the prophets.”
29 (F) Then Jesus asked, “But who do you say I am?”
“You are the Messiah!” Peter replied.
30 Jesus warned the disciples not to tell anyone about him.
Jesus Speaks about His Suffering and Death
(Matthew 16.21-28; Luke 9.22-27)
31 Jesus began telling his disciples what would happen to him. He said, “The nation's leaders, the chief priests, and the teachers of the Law of Moses will make the Son of Man suffer terribly. He will be rejected and killed, but three days later he will rise to life.” 32 Then Jesus explained clearly what he meant.
Peter took Jesus aside and told him to stop talking like that. 33 But when Jesus turned and saw the disciples, he corrected Peter. He said to him, “Satan, get away from me! You are thinking like everyone else and not like God.”
34 (G) Jesus then told the crowd and the disciples to come closer, and he said:
If any of you want to be my followers, you must forget about yourself. You must take up your cross and follow me. 35 (H) If you want to save your life,[e] you will destroy it. But if you give up your life for me and for the good news, you will save it. 36 What will you gain, if you own the whole world but destroy yourself? 37 What could you give to get back your soul?
38 Don't be ashamed of me and my message among these unfaithful and sinful people! If you are, the Son of Man will be ashamed of you when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
Mark 8
King James Version
8 In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:
3 And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.
4 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?
5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
6 And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people.
7 And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
8 So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.
9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
10 And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
11 And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
12 And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.
13 And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.
14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.
15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.
17 And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?
18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
19 When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
20 And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
21 And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.
23 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
25 After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
27 And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?
28 And they answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.
29 And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.
30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
31 And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
33 But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
