Mác 6
New Vietnamese Bible
Đức Giê-su Trở Về Na-xa-rét(A)
6 Đức Giê-su rời khỏi nơi đó trở về quê hương, các môn đệ cùng theo Ngài. 2 Đến ngày Sa-bát, Ngài bắt đầu giảng dạy trong hội đường, nhiều người nghe Ngài giảng nên ngạc nhiên hỏi: “Nhờ đâu ông này được như vậy? Sao ông ấy sáng suốt đến thế? Sao ông ấy có thể làm được những phép lạ như vậy? 3 Ông này chẳng phải là người thợ mộc, con trai bà Ma-ri, anh em với Gia-cơ, Giô-sép, Giu-đa và Si-môn sao? Các em ông ấy chẳng ở giữa vòng chúng ta đây sao?” Vì thế họ bực tức với Ngài.
4 Đức Giê-su bảo họ: “Có tiên tri nào được tôn trọng tại quê hương, giữa vòng bà con, và nhà mình đâu!” 5 Tại đó Ngài không thể làm được việc quyền năng nào, ngoại trừ đặt tay chữa lành một vài người bệnh. 6 Chúa ngạc nhiên vì lòng không tin của họ.
Công Tác Của Mười Hai Sứ Đồ(B)
Đức Giê-su đi khắp các làng quanh đó giảng dạy. 7 Ngài gọi mười hai sứ đồ đến, sai họ đi từng toán hai người và ban cho họ quyền uy trên các tà linh.
8 Ngài truyền bảo họ đừng mang gì theo khi đi đường, ngoại trừ một cây gậy; không lương thực, không túi xách, không một đồng xu giắt lưng,[a] nhưng chỉ mang dép 9 và đừng mặc hai áo choàng. 10 Ngài dặn: “Hễ nhà nào các con vào hãy cứ ở đó cho đến khi ra đi. 11 Nơi nào không tiếp hoặc không chịu nghe lời các con, hãy ra khỏi chỗ đó, phủi bụi nơi chân mình để làm bằng chứng cảnh cáo[b] họ.”
12 Các sứ đồ lên đường, truyền giảng Phúc Âm, kêu gọi người ta ăn năn hối cải. 13 Họ đuổi nhiều quỷ, xức dầu và chữa lành nhiều người bệnh.
Cái Chết Của Giăng Báp-tít(C)
14 Vua Hê-rốt nghe đồn về Đức Giê-su vì danh tiếng Ngài đồn ra khắp nơi. Một số người nói: “Giăng chết rồi mà nay sống lại, nên mới làm được những phép lạ ấy.”
15 Một số khác bảo: “Đấy là Ê-li,” một số khác nữa nói: “Đây là một tiên tri cũng như các tiên tri của Chúa.”
16 Nhưng khi nghe vậy, vua Hê-rốt bảo rằng: “Đây chính là Giăng mà ta đã truyền chém, nay sống lại.”
17 Số là vua Hê-rốt đã sai bắt Giăng xiềng vào ngục, vì cớ Hê-rô-đia, vợ của Phi-líp, em vua và vua đã cưới nàng. 18 Vì Giăng đã can vua không nên lấy Hê-rô-đia, vợ Phi-líp, em mình, một việc làm trái luật. 19 Nên bà Hê-rô-đia căm giận muốn giết Giăng nhưng không làm gì được. 20 Vì vua Hê-rốt sợ Giăng, biết ông là người chính trực và thánh thiện, nên tìm cách bảo vệ ông. Vua rất thích nghe lời Giăng, dù mỗi khi nghe, Vua thường bối rối.
21 Thời cơ đã đến: Nhân lễ sinh nhật, vua Hê-rốt mở tiệc thết triều thần, bá quan văn võ và các thân hào, nhân sĩ miền Ga-li-lê. 22 Con gái bà Hê-rô-đia vào trình diễn một vũ khúc làm vua Hê-rốt và các khách dự tiệc say mê, nên vua bảo nàng rằng: “Con muốn gì, cứ xin trẫm sẽ ban cho.” 23 Vua lại còn thề: “Con xin gì trẫm cũng ban, dù cả nửa giang san cũng được.”
24 Cô gái liền ra hỏi mẹ: “Con nên xin gì đây?” Mẹ cô bảo: “Cái đầu của Giăng Báp-tít.”
25 Cô gái vội vã trở vào, tâu với vua: “Xin bệ hạ cái đầu của Giăng Báp-tít để trên mâm.”
26 Vua rất buồn, nhưng đã lỡ thề trước mặt quan khách nên không thể từ chối. 27 Vua liền sai một đao phủ, truyền đem đầu Giăng đến. Người ấy vào ngục chém đầu Giăng, 28 rồi để đầu trên mâm mà đem cho cô gái, và cô gái trao lại cho mẹ. 29 Hay tin ấy, các môn đệ của Giăng đến lấy thi hài người về chôn cất.
Chúa Hóa Bánh Cho Năm Ngàn Người Ăn(D)
30 Các sứ đồ nhóm họp cùng Đức Giê-su và tường trình cho Ngài mọi điều họ đã thực hiện và dạy. 31 Ngài bảo họ rằng: “Các con hãy lui vào nơi thanh vắng để nghỉ ngơi một chút.” Vì kẻ đi người lại đông đúc, đến nỗi họ không có thì giờ ăn uống.
32 Ngài và các môn đệ lên thuyền đi đến một nơi thanh vắng. 33 Nhiều người thấy vậy và nhận biết chỗ đó nên từ các thành thị kéo nhau chạy bộ tới trước. 34 Vừa ra khỏi thuyền, Ngài thấy đoàn dân đông đúc thì động lòng thương xót, vì họ như chiên không có người chăn. Ngài bắt đầu dạy họ nhiều điều.
35 Trời đã xế chiều, các môn đệ đến thưa với Ngài rằng: “Đây là nơi vắng vẻ và đã gần tối, 36 xin Thầy cho dân chúng về để họ vào các làng xóm quanh đây mua gì để ăn.”
37 Nhưng Ngài đáp: “Chính các con hãy cho họ ăn.” Môn đệ thưa: “Chúng con phải đi mua đến hai trăm đồng đê-na-ri[c] bánh cho họ ăn sao?”
38 Ngài bảo: “Các con đi xem thử ở đây có bao nhiêu bánh?” Khi đã xem xét xong, họ thưa: “Có năm cái bánh và hai con cá.”
39 Ngài truyền cho các môn đệ bảo dân chúng ngồi thành từng nhóm trên cỏ xanh. 40 Họ ngồi xuống từng nhóm, nhóm thì một trăm, nhóm thì năm mươi. 41 Đức Giê-su cầm năm cái bánh và hai con cá, ngước mắt lên trời, cảm tạ Đức Chúa Trời rồi bẻ bánh đưa cho các môn đệ để phân phát cho dân chúng, Ngài cũng chia hai con cá cho mọi người. 42 Ai nấy đều ăn no nê. 43 Bánh và cá còn thừa đựng đầy mười hai giỏ. 44 Trong số người ăn có khoảng năm ngàn người đàn ông.
Chúa Đi Trên Mặt Biển(E)
45 Đức Giê-su liền truyền cho các môn đệ lên thuyền, qua phía thành Bết-sai-đa trước, rồi Ngài giải tán dân chúng. 46 Khi họ đã ra về, Ngài lên núi cầu nguyện.
47 Tối đến, thuyền ra giữa biển, còn một mình Ngài trên bờ. 48 Ngài thấy các môn đệ chèo chống vất vả vì gió ngược. Khoảng bốn giờ sáng đêm ấy Ngài đi bộ trên mặt biển đến cùng họ và định vượt qua họ. 49 Các môn đệ thấy Ngài đi trên mặt biển thì tưởng là ma nên kêu la thất thanh, 50 vì ai nấy đều trông thấy và hoảng sợ.
Nhưng Ngài liền bảo họ: “Hãy yên tâm, Ta đây, đừng sợ!” 51 Ngài vừa bước lên thuyền với họ thì gió lặng yên. Mọi người đều kinh ngạc, 52 vì họ vẫn không hiểu phép lạ hóa bánh và lòng họ còn cứng cỏi.
Chúa Chữa Bệnh Tại Ghê-nê-sa-rết(F)
53 Qua bờ bên kia, Đức Giê-su và các môn đệ cặp bến Ghê-nê-sa-rết. 54 Vừa ra khỏi thuyền, dân chúng đã nhận biết Ngài. 55 Họ chạy ngược xuôi khắp vùng, hễ nghe Ngài ở đâu thì khiêng những người bệnh nằm trên cáng đến đó. 56 Bất cứ nơi nào Ngài đến, dù làng mạc, thành phố hay thôn quê, người ta đều đem người bệnh lại các khu họp chợ và nài xin Ngài cho họ chỉ sờ vào gấu áo Ngài. Bao nhiêu người sờ đến Ngài, đều được lành cả.
Mark 6
New King James Version
Jesus Rejected at Nazareth(A)
6 Then (B)He went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples followed Him. 2 And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were (C)astonished, saying, (D)“Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands! 3 Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and (E)brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?” So they (F)were offended at Him.
4 But Jesus said to them, (G)“A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house.” 5 (H)Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them. 6 And (I)He marveled because of their unbelief. (J)Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.
Sending Out the Twelve(K)
7 (L)And He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out (M)two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirits. 8 He commanded them to take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts— 9 but (N)to wear sandals, and not to put on two tunics.
10 (O)Also He said to them, “In whatever place you enter a house, stay there till you depart from that place. 11 (P)And [a]whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, (Q)shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. [b]Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!”
12 So they went out and preached that people should repent. 13 And they cast out many demons, (R)and anointed with oil many who were sick, and healed them.
John the Baptist Beheaded(S)
14 (T)Now King Herod heard of Him, for His name had become well known. And he said, “John the Baptist is risen from the dead, and therefore (U)these powers are at work in him.”
15 (V)Others said, “It is Elijah.”
And others said, “It is [c]the Prophet, (W)or like one of the prophets.”
16 (X)But when Herod heard, he said, “This is John, whom I beheaded; he has been raised from the dead!” 17 For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife; for he had married her. 18 Because John had said to Herod, (Y)“It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”
19 Therefore Herodias [d]held it against him and wanted to kill him, but she could not; 20 for Herod (Z)feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and he protected him. And when he heard him, he [e]did many things, and heard him gladly.
21 (AA)Then an opportune day came when Herod (AB)on his birthday gave a feast for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee. 22 And when Herodias’ daughter herself came in and danced, and pleased Herod and those who sat with him, the king said to the girl, “Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you.” 23 He also swore to her, (AC)“Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom.”
24 So she went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?”
And she said, “The head of John the Baptist!”
25 Immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, “I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”
26 (AD)And the king was exceedingly sorry; yet, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he did not want to refuse her. 27 Immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in prison, 28 brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother. 29 When his disciples heard of it, they came and (AE)took away his corpse and laid it in a tomb.
Feeding the Five Thousand(AF)
30 (AG)Then the apostles gathered to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught. 31 (AH)And He said to them, “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” For (AI)there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat. 32 (AJ)So they departed to a deserted place in the boat by themselves.
33 But [f]the multitudes saw them departing, and many (AK)knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to Him. 34 (AL)And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like (AM)sheep not having a shepherd. So (AN)He began to teach them many things. 35 (AO)When the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said, “This is a deserted place, and already the hour is late. 36 Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves [g]bread; for they have nothing to eat.”
37 But He answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.”
And they said to Him, (AP)“Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”
38 But He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.”
And when they found out they said, (AQ)“Five, and two fish.”
39 Then He (AR)commanded them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in ranks, in hundreds and in fifties. 41 And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He (AS)looked up to heaven, (AT)blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divided among them all. 42 So they all ate and were filled. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of fragments and of the fish. 44 Now those who had eaten the loaves were [h]about five thousand men.
Jesus Walks on the Sea(AU)
45 (AV)Immediately He [i]made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He sent the multitude away. 46 And when He had sent them away, He (AW)departed to the mountain to pray. 47 Now when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea; and He was alone on the land. 48 Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and (AX)would have passed them by. 49 And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed it was a (AY)ghost, and cried out; 50 for they all saw Him and were troubled. But immediately He talked with them and said to them, (AZ)“Be[j] of good cheer! It is I; do not be (BA)afraid.” 51 Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind (BB)ceased. And they were greatly (BC)amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled. 52 For (BD)they had not understood about the loaves, because their (BE)heart was hardened.
Many Touch Him and Are Made Well(BF)
53 (BG)When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and anchored there. 54 And when they came out of the boat, immediately [k]the people recognized Him, 55 ran through that whole surrounding region, and began to carry about on beds those who were sick to wherever they heard He was. 56 Wherever He entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged Him that (BH)they might just touch the (BI)hem of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made well.

Mark 6
King James Version
6 And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him.
2 And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.
4 But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
5 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
7 And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;
8 And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:
9 But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
10 And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place.
11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
12 And they went out, and preached that men should repent.
13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.
14 And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
15 Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.
16 But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.
17 For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her.
18 For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.
19 Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:
20 For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.
21 And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee;
22 And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
23 And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.
24 And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.
25 And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.
26 And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.
27 And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother.
29 And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
30 And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32 And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.
33 And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.
34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
35 And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:
36 Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.
37 He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?
38 He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.
39 And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass.
40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.
41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.
42 And they did all eat, and were filled.
43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.
44 And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.
45 And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.
46 And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.
47 And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land.
48 And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them.
49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:
50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
51 And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.
52 For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.
53 And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
54 And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,
55 And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.
56 And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.
