3 · kai Jesus entered eiserchomai again palin into eis a ho synagogue synagōgē, and kai a man anthrōpos with echō a withered xērainō · ho hand cheir was eimi there ekei. 2 And kai they were watching paratēreō him autos carefully to see if ei he would heal therapeuō him autos on the ho Sabbath sabbaton, so hina they could accuse katēgoreō him autos. 3 And kai he said legō to the ho man anthrōpos who ho had echō the ho withered xēros hand cheir, “ Get egeirō up and step eis · ho forward mesos.” 4 And kai he said legō to them autos, “Is it lawful on the ho Sabbath sabbaton to do poieō good agathos or ē to do evil kakopoieō, to save sōzō life psychē or ē to destroy apokteinō it?” But de they ho remained silent siōpaō. 5 And kai after looking periblepō around at them autos in meta anger orgē, grieved syllypeō at epi the ho hardness pōrōsis of ho their autos heart kardia, he said legō to the ho man anthrōpos, “ Stretch ekteinō out your ho hand cheir.” And kai he stretched ekteinō out his autos hand cheir and kai it was restored apokathistēmi. · ho 6 So kai the ho Pharisees Pharisaios went exerchomai out immediately and began didōmi plotting symboulion with meta · ho Herodians hērōidianoi against kata him autos, as to how hopōs they might do apollymi away with him autos.

7 But kai · ho Jesus Iēsous withdrew anachōreō with meta · ho his autos disciples mathētēs to pros the ho lake thalassa, and kai there followed akoloutheō a large polys crowd plēthos from apo · ho Galilee Galilaia and kai from apo · ho Judea Ioudaia, 8 and kai from apo Jerusalem Hierosolyma, and kai from apo · ho Idumea Idoumaia and kai beyond peran the ho Jordan Iordanēs and kai around peri Tyre Tyros and kai Sidon Sidōn a large polys crowd plēthos came erchomai to pros him autos when they heard akouō about the things hosos he had done poieō. 9 And kai he told legō · ho his autos disciples mathētēs to hina make ready proskartereō a small ploiarion boat for him autos because dia of the ho crowd ochlos, so hina that they would not mē crush thlibō him autos. 10 For gar he had healed therapeuō many polys, so hōste that all who hosos had echō diseases mastix were pressing epipiptō around him autos so hina they could touch haptō him autos. 11 And kai the ho unclean akathartos spirits pneuma, · ho whenever hotan they saw theōreō him autos, fell prospiptō down before him autos and kai cried krazō out , saying legō, “ You sy are eimi the ho Son hyios of ho God theos!” 12 But kai he warned epitimaō them autos repeatedly polys not mē to make poieō him autos known phaneros.

13 And kai he went anabainō up into eis the ho mountain oros and kai called proskaleō those hos whom he himself autos wanted thelō, and kai they came aperchomai to pros him autos. 14 And kai he appointed poieō twelve dōdeka ( whom hos he onomazō also kai named onomazō apostles apostolos) so hina that they might be eimi with meta him autos and kai so hina that he might send apostellō them autos out to preach kēryssō 15 and kai have echō authority exousia to drive ekballō out · ho demons daimonion. 16 · kai He appointed poieō the ho twelve dōdeka: · kai Peter Petros (the name onoma he gave epitithēmi to ho Simon Simōn); 17 · kai James Iakōbos the ho son of ho Zebedee Zebedaios, · kai John Iōannēs the ho brother adelphos of ho James Iakōbos · kai ( he gave epitithēmi to them autos the name onoma Boanerges Boanērges, that hos is eimi, Sons hyios of Thunder brontē); 18 · kai Andrew Andreas, · kai Philip Philippos, · kai Bartholomew Bartholomaios, · kai Matthew, · kai Thomas Thōmas, · kai James Iakōbos the ho son of ho Alphaeus Halphaios, · kai Thaddaeus Thaddaios, · kai Simon Simōn the ho Canaanite Kananaios; 19 and kai Judas Ioudas Iscariot Iskariōth, who hos betrayed paradidōmi him autos.

20 Then kai Jesus went erchomai to eis his house oikos, and kai again palin a crowd ochlos gathered synerchomai, so hōste that they autos were not mē even mēde able dynamai to eat esthiō a meal artos. 21 And kai when his autos family ho heard akouō this, they went exerchomai out to take charge krateō of him autos, for gar people were saying legō, “ He is out of his mind existēmi.” 22 And kai the ho scribes grammateus who ho came down katabainō from apo Jerusalem Hierosolyma were saying legō, “ He has echō Beelzebul Beelzeboul in him,” and kai “ By en the ho prince archōn of ho demons daimonion he drives ekballō out · ho demons daimonion.” 23 So kai he called proskaleō them autos together and began speaking legō to them autos in en parables parabolē: “ How pōs can dynamai Satan Satanas drive out ekballō Satan Satanas? 24 · kai If ean a kingdom basileia is divided merizō against epi itself heautou, that ekeinos kingdom basileia cannot ou dynamai stand histēmi. · ho 25 And kai if ean a house oikia is divided merizō against epi itself heautou, that ekeinos house oikia cannot ou dynamai · ho stand histēmi. 26 And kai if ei · ho Satan Satanas rises anistēmi against epi himself heautou and kai is divided merizō, he cannot ou stand histēmi but alla is coming to echō an end telos. 27 But alla no one oudeis can dynamai enter eiserchomai the ho house oikia of the ho strong ischuros man and carry off diarpazō · ho his autos possessions skeuos unless ean mē first prōton he ties up deō the ho strong ischuros man ; · kai then tote he can rob diarpazō · ho his autos house oikia.

New King James Version

Healing on the Sabbath(A)

3 And (B)He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand. 2 So they (C)watched Him closely, whether He would (D)heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might [a]accuse Him. 3 And He said to the man who had the withered hand, [b]“Step forward.” 4 Then He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they kept silent. 5 And when He had looked around at them with anger, being grieved by the (E)hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored [c]as whole as the other. 6 (F)Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with (G)the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

A Great Multitude Follows Jesus(H)

7 But Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea. And a great multitude from Galilee followed Him, (I)and from Judea 8 and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and those from Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how (J)many things He was doing, came to Him. 9 So He told His disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him because of the multitude, lest they should crush Him. 10 For He healed (K)many, so that as many as had afflictions pressed about Him to (L)touch Him. 11 (M)And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cried out, saying, (N)“You are the Son of God.” 12 But (O)He sternly warned them that they should not make Him known.

The Twelve Apostles(P)

13 (Q)And He went up on the mountain and called to Him those He Himself wanted. And they came to Him. 14 Then He appointed twelve, [d]that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach, 15 and to have [e]power [f]to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons: 16 [g]Simon, (R)to whom He gave the name Peter; 17 James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, to whom He gave the name Boanerges, that is, “Sons of Thunder”; 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite; 19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. And they went into a house.

A House Divided Cannot Stand(S)

20 Then the multitude came together again, (T)so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21 But when His (U)own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, (V)for they said, “He is out of His mind.”

22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, (W)“He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the (X)ruler of the demons He casts out demons.”

23 (Y)So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. 27 (Z)No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

The Unpardonable Sin(AA)

28 (AB)“Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; 29 but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation”— 30 because they (AC)said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Jesus’ Mother and Brothers Send for Him(AD)

31 (AE)Then His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him. 32 And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers [h]are outside seeking You.”

33 But He answered them, saying, “Who is My mother, or My brothers?” 34 And He looked around in a circle at those who sat about Him, and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 35 For whoever does the (AF)will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.”

New American Bible (Revised Edition)

Chapter 3

A Man with a Withered Hand. 1 [a]Again he entered the synagogue.(A) There was a man there who had a withered hand. 2 They watched him closely to see if he would cure him on the sabbath so that they might accuse him. 3 He said to the man with the withered hand, “Come up here before us.” 4 Then he said to them, “Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than to destroy it?” But they remained silent. 5 Looking around at them with anger and grieved at their hardness of heart, he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out and his hand was restored.(B) 6 [b]The Pharisees went out and immediately took counsel with the Herodians against him to put him to death.

The Mercy of Jesus. 7 [c]Jesus withdrew toward the sea with his disciples.(C) A large number of people [followed] from Galilee and from Judea. 8 Hearing what he was doing, a large number of people came to him also from Jerusalem, from Idumea, from beyond the Jordan, and from the neighborhood of Tyre and Sidon. 9 He told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not crush him. 10 He had cured many and, as a result, those who had diseases were pressing upon him to touch him.(D) 11 [d]And whenever unclean spirits saw him they would fall down before him and shout, “You are the Son of God.”(E) 12 He warned them sternly not to make him known.

The Mission of the Twelve. 13 (F)He went up the mountain[e] and summoned those whom he wanted and they came to him. 14 (G)He appointed twelve [whom he also named apostles] that they might be with him[f] and he might send them forth to preach 15 and to have authority to drive out demons: 16 [g][he appointed the twelve:] Simon, whom he named Peter; 17 James, son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, whom he named Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder;(H) 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus, Simon the Cananean, 19 and Judas Iscariot who betrayed him.

Blasphemy of the Scribes. 20 [h]He came home.[i] Again [the] crowd gathered, making it impossible for them even to eat.(I) 21 When his relatives heard of this they set out to seize him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”(J) 22 The scribes who had come from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,”[j] and “By the prince of demons he drives out demons.”(K)

Jesus and Beelzebul. 23 Summoning them, he began to speak to them in parables, “How can Satan drive out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand; that is the end of him. 27 But no one can enter a strong man’s house to plunder his property unless he first ties up the strong man. Then he can plunder his house. 28 Amen, I say to you, all sins and all blasphemies that people utter will be forgiven them.(L) 29 But whoever blasphemes against the holy Spirit[k] will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin.” 30 For they had said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Jesus and His Family. 31 (M)His mother and his brothers arrived. Standing outside they sent word to him and called him. 32 A crowd seated around him told him, “Your mother and your brothers[l] [and your sisters] are outside asking for you.” 33 But he said to them in reply, “Who are my mother and [my] brothers?” 34 And looking around at those seated in the circle he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 35 [For] whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.”

Footnotes

  1. 3:1–5 Here Jesus is again depicted in conflict with his adversaries over the question of sabbath-day observance. His opponents were already ill disposed toward him because they regarded Jesus as a violator of the sabbath. Jesus’ question Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil? places the matter in the broader theological context outside the casuistry of the scribes. The answer is obvious. Jesus heals the man with the withered hand in the sight of all and reduces his opponents to silence; cf. Jn 5:17–18.
  2. 3:6 In reporting the plot of the Pharisees and Herodians to put Jesus to death after this series of conflicts in Galilee, Mark uses a pattern that recurs in his account of later controversies in Jerusalem (Mk 11:17–18; 12:13–17). The help of the Herodians, supporters of Herod Antipas, tetrarch of Galilee and Perea, is needed to take action against Jesus. Both series of conflicts point to their gravity and to the impending passion of Jesus.
  3. 3:7–19 This overview of the Galilean ministry manifests the power of Jesus to draw people to himself through his teaching and deeds of power. The crowds of Jews from many regions surround Jesus (Mk 3:7–12). This phenomenon prepares the way for creating a new people of Israel. The choice and mission of the Twelve is the prelude (Mk 3:13–19).
  4. 3:11–12 See note on Mk 1:24–25.
  5. 3:13 He went up the mountain: here and elsewhere the mountain is associated with solemn moments and acts in the mission and self-revelation of Jesus (Mk 6:46; 9:2–8; 13:3). Jesus acts with authority as he summoned those whom he wanted and they came to him.
  6. 3:14–15 He appointed twelve [whom he also named apostles] that they might be with him: literally “he made,” i.e., instituted them as apostles to extend his messianic mission through them (Mk 6:7–13). See notes on Mt 10:1 and 10:2–4.
  7. 3:16 Simon, whom he named Peter: Mark indicates that Simon’s name was changed on this occasion. Peter is first in all lists of the apostles (Mt 10:2; Lk 6:14; Acts 1:13; cf. 1 Cor 15:5–8).
  8. 3:20–35 Within the narrative of the coming of Jesus’ relatives (Mk 3:20–21) is inserted the account of the unbelieving scribes from Jerusalem who attributed Jesus’ power over demons to Beelzebul (Mk 3:22–30); see note on Mk 5:21–43. There were those even among the relatives of Jesus who disbelieved and regarded Jesus as out of his mind (Mk 3:21). Against this background, Jesus is informed of the arrival of his mother and brothers [and sisters] (Mk 3:32). He responds by showing that not family ties but doing God’s will (Mk 3:35) is decisive in the kingdom; cf. note on Mt 12:46–50.
  9. 3:20 He came home: cf. Mk 2:1–2 and see note on Mk 2:15.
  10. 3:22 By Beelzebul: see note on Mt 10:25. Two accusations are leveled against Jesus: (1) that he is possessed by an unclean spirit and (2) by the prince of demons he drives out demons. Jesus answers the second charge by a parable (Mk 3:24–27) and responds to the first charge in Mk 3:28–29.
  11. 3:29 Whoever blasphemes against the holy Spirit: this sin is called an everlasting sin because it attributes to Satan, who is the power of evil, what is actually the work of the holy Spirit, namely, victory over the demons.
  12. 3:32 Your brothers: see note on Mk 6:3.
