Mark 10
Young's Literal Translation
10 And having risen thence, he doth come to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again do multitudes come together unto him, and, as he had been accustomed, again he was teaching them.
2 And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned him, if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting him,
3 and he answering said to them, `What did Moses command you?'
4 and they said, `Moses suffered to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.'
5 And Jesus answering said to them, `For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,
6 but from the beginning of the creation, a male and a female God did make them;
7 on this account shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife,
8 and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh; so that they are no more two, but one flesh;
9 what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.'
10 And in the house again his disciples of the same thing questioned him,
11 and he saith to them, `Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, doth commit adultery against her;
12 and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she committeth adultery.'
13 And they were bringing to him children, that he might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,
14 and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and he said to them, `Suffer the children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
15 verily I say to you, whoever may not receive the reign of God, as a child -- he may not enter into it;'
16 and having taken them in his arms, having put [his] hands upon them, he was blessing them.
17 And as he is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to him, was questioning him, `Good teacher, what may I do, that life age-during I may inherit?'
18 And Jesus said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one [is] good except One -- God;
19 the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Thou mayest not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.'
20 And he answering said to him, `Teacher, all these did I keep from my youth.'
21 And Jesus having looked upon him, did love him, and said to him, `One thing thou dost lack; go away, whatever thou hast -- sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me, having taken up the cross.'
22 And he -- gloomy at the word -- went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.
23 And Jesus having looked round, saith to his disciples, `How hardly shall they who have riches enter into the reign of God!'
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words, and Jesus again answering saith to them, `Children, how hard is it to those trusting on the riches to enter into the reign of God!
25 It is easier for a camel through the eye of the needle to enter, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.'
26 And they were astonished beyond measure, saying unto themselves, `And who is able to be saved?'
27 And Jesus, having looked upon them, saith, `With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.'
28 And Peter began to say to him, `Lo, we left all, and we followed thee.'
29 And Jesus answering said, `Verily I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my sake, and for the good news',
30 who may not receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, with persecutions, and in the age that is coming, life age-during;
31 and many first shall be last, and the last first.'
32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the twelve, he began to tell them the things about to happen to him,
33 -- `Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the nations,
34 and they shall mock him, and scourge him, and spit on him, and kill him, and the third day he shall rise again.'
35 And there come near to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, `Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, thou mayest do for us;'
36 and he said to them, `What do ye wish me to do for you?'
37 and they said to him, `Grant to us that, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, we may sit in thy glory;'
38 and Jesus said to them, `Ye have not known what ye ask; are ye able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized with -- to be baptized?'
39 And they said to him, `We are able;' and Jesus said to them, `Of the cup indeed that I drink of, ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with, ye shall be baptized;
40 but to sit on my right and on my left, is not mine to give, but -- to those for whom it hath been prepared.'
41 And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,
42 but Jesus having called them near, saith to them, `Ye have known that they who are considered to rule the nations do exercise lordship over them, and their great ones do exercise authority upon them;
43 but not so shall it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he shall be your minister,
44 and whoever of you may will to become first, he shall be servant of all;
45 for even the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'
46 And they come to Jericho, and as he is going forth from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus -- Bartimaeus the blind -- was sitting beside the way begging,
47 and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, `The Son of David -- Jesus! deal kindly with me;'
48 and many were rebuking him, that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, `Son of David, deal kindly with me.'
49 And Jesus having stood, he commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, `Take courage, rise, he doth call thee;'
50 and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, did come unto Jesus.
51 And answering, Jesus saith to him, `What wilt thou I may do to thee?' and the blind man said to him, `Rabboni, that I may see again;'
52 and Jesus said to him, `Go, thy faith hath saved thee:' and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
Mark 10
King James Version
10 And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
3 And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.
11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
17 And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?
18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.
19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.
21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.
29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
31 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,
33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:
34 And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.
36 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
37 They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
38 But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
39 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
40 But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and John.
42 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:
44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
Markus 10
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
Jesus talar om äktenskap och skilsmässa
10 Sedan lämnade Jesus Kafarnaum och gick söderut mot den judiska gränsen och in i området öster om Jordan. Som vanligt samlades stora folkskaror omkring honom, och som vanligt talade han till dem om Guds rike.
2 Några fariseer kom och frågade honom: Tillåter du skilsmässa? Deras enda ärende var förstås att sätta fast honom.
3 Vad sa Mose om skilsmässa? svarade Jesus dem.
4 Han hade ingenting emot det, utan sa att allt en man behöver göra är att skriva ett skiljebrev till sin hustru. Sedan kan han skicka iväg henne.
5 Och varför sa Mose det? undrade Jesus. Jag kan tala om det för er. Det var en eftergift för att ni har så onda och hårda hjärtan.
6-7 Men från början var det inte Guds väg. Han skapade dem som man och kvinna för att de hela livet skulle leva gifta med varandra. Därför ska en man lämna sina föräldrar,
8 och han och hans fru ska förenas så att de inte längre är två människor utan en enda.
9 Och ingen människa får skilja på det som Gud har fogat samman.
10 När han senare var ensam med lärjungarna i huset ville de veta mer om detta.
11 Han sa då till dem: När en man skiljer sig från sin hustru för att gifta sig med en annan kvinna, begår han äktenskapsbrott.
12 Och om en hustru flyttar ifrån sin man och gifter om sig är det hon som begår äktenskapsbrott.
Jesus välsignar barnen
13 Några mödrar kom en dag med sina barn till Jesus för att han skulle välsigna dem. Men lärjungarna körde bort dem.
14 När Jesus såg vad som hände blev han förargad på lärjungarna och sa till dem: Låt barnen komma till mig, för Guds rike tillhör dem. Och hindra dem inte.
15 Och det ska jag säga er att den som inte kommer till Gud som ett litet barn kommer helt enkelt inte in i hans rike.
16 Sedan tog han barnen i sina armar och lade händerna på deras huvuden och välsignade dem.
Jesus talar med en rik ung man
17 När han så skulle fortsätta sin väg kom en man springande och böjde knä framför honom och sa: Gode Mästare, vad ska jag göra för att få evigt liv?
18 Varför kallar du mig god? frågade Jesus. Det finns bara en enda som är god, och det är Gud.
19 Och hans bud kan du: 'Du ska inte döda, inte vara otrogen mot din hustru, inte stjäla, inte ljuga, inte bedra någon och du ska respektera din far och mor.'
20 Herre, jag har aldrig någonsin brutit ett enda av dessa bud, svarade mannen.
21 Jesus fylldes av kärlek till mannen när han såg på honom. Det är bara en sak till du kan göra, sa han. Sälj allt du äger och ge pengarna åt de fattiga. Då kommer du att få en skatt i himlen. Kom sedan och följ mig.
22 När mannen hörde det kände han sig träffad och gick bedrövad sin väg för han var mycket rik.
23 Jesus såg sig omkring och vände sig sedan till lärjungarna och sa: Hur svårt är det inte för den som har pengar att komma in i Guds rike!
24 Jesus såg att lärjungarna blev förfärade när de fick höra detta och han sa därför: Ja, för människor som äger mycket är det nästan omöjligt att komma dit.
25 Det är faktiskt lättare för en kamel att komma igenom ett nålsöga än för den som är rik att komma in i Guds rike.
26 Hans svar gjorde lärjungarna mycket fundersamma och de frågade: Vem i hela världen kan då bli frälst?
27 Jesus såg dem i ögonen och sa sedan: Ingen människa kan själv gå dit in, men när Gud griper in kan det ske, för allt är möjligt för Gud.
28 Då började Petrus tala om allt som han och de andra lämnat bakom sig. Vi har övergett allt för att följa dig, sa han.
29 Jesus svarade: Jag försäkrar er att alla som har gett upp något, hem, egendom, bröder, systrar, mor, far eller barn, därför att de älskar mig och vill berätta de goda nyheterna för andra,
30 de ska få det tillbaka hundra gånger om redan här i tiden, men de kommer också att bli förföljda! Och dessutom ska de få evigt liv i den tillkommande världen.
31 Men många människor, som har en framskjuten ställning, kommer då inte längre att ha något inflytande. I stället kommer många obetydliga människor att då bli de främsta.
Jesus förutsäger för tredje gången hur han ska dö
32 De var nu på väg till Jerusalem, och Jesus gick först. Lärjungarna och alla de övriga som gick med honom kände ångest och skräck.Jesus tog dem då åt sidan och började än en gång beskriva allt som skulle hända när de kom fram till Jerusalem.
33 När vi kommer dit, sa han, så kommer Människosonen att arresteras och bli överlämnad till översteprästerna och de judiska ledarna. De kommer att döma mig till döden och överlämna mig till romarna.
34 De kommer att håna mig och spotta på mig och piska mig och till sist döda mig. Men efter tre dagar ska jag återvända till livet.
Jesus talar om att tjäna andra
35 Då kom Jakob och Johannes, Sebedaios söner, fram till honom och sa: Mästare, vi vill be dig om en sak.
36 Vad då? frågade han.
37 Vi vill sitta närmast dig när vi kommer i ditt rike, sa de. Den ene till höger och den andre till vänster om dig!
38 Men Jesus svarade dem: Ni vet inte vad ni ber om! Kan ni bära det svåra lidande som väntar mig? Och kan ni ge era liv som jag måste göra?
39 Javisst, svarade de utan att tveka. Det kan vi!Då sa Jesus: Ja, ni kommer verkligen att få lida och ge era liv,
40 men trots det kan inte jag bestämma vem som en gång ska ha platserna till höger och vänster om mig. Det har Gud redan bestämt.
41 När de andra lärjungarna fick höra vad Jakob och Johannes hade bett om, blev de mycket upprörda.
42 Då kallade Jesus dem till sig och sa: Jag vet hur makthavarna här i världen förtrycker folk. Den som har makt använder den hänsynslöst.
43 Men på det viset får det inte vara bland er. Den som vill vara stor i Guds ögon måste tjäna andra.
44 Och den som vill vara den förste måste underordna sig alla andra.
45 För inte ens Människosonen är här för att låta sig tjänas, utan för att tjäna och med sitt liv befria många människor ur det ondas våld.
Jesus botar från blindhet
46 Så kom Jesus och lärjungarna till staden Jeriko.När de senare var på väg därifrån, följde en stor folkskara efter dem. Då satt en blind tiggare som hette Bartimaios, son till Timaios, vid vägkanten där Jesus gick förbi.
47 När Bartimaios fick höra att det var Jesus från Nasaret började han ropa: Jesus, Davids son, förbarma dig över mig!
48 Håll mun! skrek folk åt honom. Men han ropade bara högre, gång på gång. Davids son, förbarma dig över mig!
49 När Jesus hörde honom stannade han på vägen och sa: Be honom komma hit! De ropade då på den blinde mannen: Vilken tur du har, sa de. Res på dig och kom. Jesus ropar på dig.
50 Bartimaios slängde av sig sin mantel, hoppade upp och skyndade sig fram till Jesus.
51 Vad vill du att jag ska göra? frågade Jesus.Mästare, sa den blinde Bartimaios, jag vill se!
52 Då sa Jesus till honom: Gå! Din tro har botat dig. Och med detsamma kunde den blinde mannen se, och han följde efter Jesus på vägen.
Mark 10
New King James Version
Marriage and Divorce(A)
10 Then (B)He arose from there and came to the region of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And multitudes gathered to Him again, and as He was accustomed, He taught them again.
2 (C)The Pharisees came and asked Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” testing Him.
3 And He answered and said to them, “What did Moses command you?”
4 They said, (D)“Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to dismiss her.”
5 And Jesus answered and said to them, “Because of the hardness of your heart he wrote you this [a]precept. 6 But from the beginning of the creation, God (E)‘made them male and female.’ 7 (F)‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, 8 and the two shall become one flesh’; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”
10 In the house His disciples also asked Him again about the same matter. 11 So He said to them, (G)“Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. 12 And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”
Jesus Blesses Little Children(H)
13 (I)Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for (J)of such is the kingdom of God. 15 Assuredly, I say to you, (K)whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will (L)by no means enter it.” 16 And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them.
Jesus Counsels the Rich Young Ruler(M)
17 (N)Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I (O)do that I may inherit eternal life?”
18 So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, (P)God. 19 You know the commandments: (Q)‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ ”
20 And he answered and said to Him, “Teacher, all these things I have (R)kept from my youth.”
21 Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: Go your way, (S)sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have (T)treasure in heaven; and come, (U)take up the cross, and follow Me.”
22 But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
With God All Things Are Possible(V)
23 (W)Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!” 24 And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is [b]for those (X)who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a (Y)rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
26 And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, “Who then can be saved?”
27 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not (Z)with God; for with God all things are possible.”
28 (AA)Then Peter began to say to Him, “See, we have left all and followed You.”
29 So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother [c]or wife or children or [d]lands, for My sake and the gospel’s, 30 (AB)who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with (AC)persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life. 31 (AD)But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
Jesus a Third Time Predicts His Death and Resurrection(AE)
32 (AF)Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amazed. And as they followed they were afraid. (AG)Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him: 33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles; 34 and they will mock Him, and [e]scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again.”
Greatness Is Serving(AH)
35 (AI)Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask.”
36 And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?”
37 They said to Him, “Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory.”
38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the (AJ)cup that I drink, and be baptized with the (AK)baptism that I am baptized with?”
39 They said to Him, “We are able.”
So Jesus said to them, (AL)“You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized; 40 but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those (AM)for whom it is prepared.”
41 (AN)And when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeased with James and John. 42 But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, (AO)“You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43 (AP)Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. 44 And whoever of you desires to be first shall be slave of all. 45 For even (AQ)the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and (AR)to give His life a ransom for many.”
Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus(AS)
46 (AT)Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging. 47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, (AU)Son of David, (AV)have mercy on me!”
48 Then many warned him to be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
49 So Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called.
Then they called the blind man, saying to him, “Be of good cheer. Rise, He is calling you.”
50 And throwing aside his garment, he rose and came to Jesus.
51 So Jesus answered and said to him, “What do you want Me to do for you?”
The blind man said to Him, [f]“Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.”
52 Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way; (AW)your faith has [g]made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.
