Mark 3
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.”

Marco 3
Nuova Riveduta 2006

Gesù guarisce l’uomo dalla mano paralizzata

3 (A)Poi entrò di nuovo nella sinagoga; là stava un uomo che aveva la mano paralizzata. 2 E l’osservavano per vedere se lo avrebbe guarito in giorno di sabato, per poterlo accusare. 3 Egli disse all’uomo che aveva la mano paralizzata: «Àlzati là nel mezzo!» 4 Poi domandò loro: «È permesso, in un giorno di sabato, fare del bene o fare del male? Salvare una persona o ucciderla?» Ma quelli tacevano. 5 Allora Gesù, guardatili tutt’intorno con indignazione, rattristato per la durezza del loro cuore, disse all’uomo: «Stendi la [tua] mano!» Egli la stese, e la sua mano tornò sana [come l’altra].

6 I farisei, usciti, tennero subito consiglio con gli erodiani contro di lui per farlo morire.

Numerose guarigioni

7 (B)Poi Gesù si ritirò con i suoi discepoli verso il mare; e una gran folla dalla Galilea {lo seguì}; e dalla Giudea, 8 da Gerusalemme, dall’Idumea[a] e da oltre il Giordano e dai dintorni di Tiro e Sidone, una gran folla, udendo quante cose egli faceva, andò da lui.[b] 9 Egli disse ai suoi discepoli che gli tenessero sempre pronta una barchetta per non farsi pigiare dalla folla. 10 Perché, avendone guariti molti, tutti quelli che avevano qualche malattia gli si precipitavano addosso per toccarlo. 11 E gli spiriti immondi, quando lo vedevano, si gettavano davanti a lui e gridavano: «Tu sei il Figlio di Dio!» 12 Ed egli ordinava loro con insistenza di non rivelare la sua identità.

Gesù sceglie i dodici apostoli

13 (C)Poi Gesù salì sul monte e chiamò a sé quelli che egli volle, ed essi andarono da lui. 14 Ne costituì dodici, ai quali diede anche il nome di apostoli[c], perché stessero con lui, 15 per mandarli a predicare e perché avessero il potere di [guarire le malattie e di] scacciare i demòni. 16 Costituì dunque i dodici, cioè: Simone, al quale[d] mise nome Pietro; 17 Giacomo, figlio di Zebedeo e Giovanni, fratello di Giacomo, ai quali pose nome Boanerges, che vuol dire figli del tuono; 18 Andrea, Filippo, Bartolomeo, Matteo, Tommaso, Giacomo, figlio d’Alfeo, Taddeo, Simone lo Zelota[e] 19 e Giuda Iscariota, quello che poi lo tradì.

Il peccato imperdonabile: la bestemmia contro lo Spirito Santo

20 (D)Poi entrò in una casa e la folla si radunò[f] di nuovo, così che egli e i suoi non potevano neppure mangiare.

21 I suoi parenti, udito ciò, vennero per prenderlo, perché dicevano: «È fuori di sé».

22 Gli scribi che erano scesi da Gerusalemme dicevano: «Egli ha Belzebù, e scaccia i demòni con l’aiuto del principe dei demòni». 23 Ma egli, chiamatili a sé, diceva loro in parabole: «Come può Satana scacciare Satana? 24 Se un regno è diviso in parti contrarie, quel regno non può reggere. 25 Se una casa è divisa in parti contrarie, quella casa non potrà reggere[g]. 26 Se dunque Satana insorge contro se stesso ed è diviso, non può reggere, ma deve finire. 27 D’altronde nessuno può entrare nella casa dell’uomo forte e rubargli la sua roba, se prima non avrà legato l’uomo forte; soltanto allora gli saccheggerà la casa. 28 In verità vi dico: ai figli degli uomini saranno perdonati tutti i peccati e qualunque bestemmia avranno proferita; 29 ma chiunque avrà bestemmiato contro lo Spirito Santo non ha perdono in eterno, ma è reo di un peccato eterno[h]». 30 Egli parlava così perché dicevano: «Ha uno spirito immondo».

La madre e i fratelli di Gesù

31 (E)Giunsero sua madre e i suoi fratelli; e, fermatisi fuori[i], lo mandarono a chiamare. 32 Una folla gli stava seduta intorno e gli dissero: «Ecco tua madre e i tuoi fratelli e le tue sorelle[j] là fuori che ti cercano». 33 Egli rispose loro: «Chi sono mia madre e i miei fratelli?» 34 Girando lo sguardo su coloro che gli sedevano intorno, disse: «Ecco mia madre e i miei fratelli! 35 Chiunque avrà fatto la volontà di Dio, mi è fratello, sorella e madre».

Mark 3
1599 Geneva Bible

3 1 The withered hand is healed. 6 The Pharisees consult with the Herodians. 10 Many are healed by touching Christ. 11 At his sight the devils fall down before him. 14 The twelve Apostles. 24 The kingdom divided against itself. 29 Blasphemy against the holy Ghost. 33 Christ’s parents.

1 And (A)[a]he entered again into the Synagogue, and there was a man which had a [b]withered hand.

2 And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

3 Then he said unto the man which had the withered hand, Arise: stand forth in the midst.

4 And he said to them, Is it lawful to do a good deed on the Sabbath day, or to do evil? to save the [c]life, or to kill? but they held their peace.

5 Then he looked round about on them [d]angrily, mourning also for the [e]hardness of their hearts, and said to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored, as whole as the other.

6 [f]And the Pharisees departed, and straightway gathered a council with the [g]Herodians against him, that they might destroy him.

7 But Jesus avoided with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude followed him from Galilee, and from Judea,

8 And from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and [h]beyond Jordan: and they that dwelled about Tyre and Sidon, when they had heard what great things he did, came unto him in great number.

9 And he commanded his disciples, that a little ship should [i]wait for him, because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.

10 For he had healed many, insomuch that they pressed upon him to touch him, as many as had [j]plagues.

11 And when the [k]unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

12 And he sharply rebuked them, to the end they should not utter him.

13 (B)Then he went up into a mountain, and called unto him whom he would, and they came unto him.

14 [l]And he [m]appointed twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them to preach.

15 And that they might have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:

16 And the first was Simon, and he named Simon, Peter,

17 Then James the son of Zebedee, and John James’ brother (and surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder.)

18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and [n]Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,

19 And Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him, and they came [o]home.

20 And the multitude assembled again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

21 [p]And when his [q]kinsfolks heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said that he was beside himself.

22 (C)And the Scribes which came down from Jerusalem, said, He hath Beelzebub, and through the prince of the devils he casteth out devils.

23 But he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan drive out Satan?

24 For if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

25 Or if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot continue.

26 So if [r]Satan make insurrection against himself, and be divided, he cannot endure, but is at an end.

27 No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and take away his goods, except he first bind that strong man, and then spoil his house.

28 (D)[s]Verily I say unto you, all sins shall be forgiven unto the children of men, and blasphemies, wherewith they blaspheme:

29 But he that blasphemeth against the holy Ghost, shall never have forgiveness, but is culpable of eternal damnation.

30 [t]Because they said, He had an unclean spirit.

31 (E)Then came his [u]brethren and mother and stood without, and sent unto him, and called him.

32 And the people sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother, and thy brethren seek for thee without.

33 But he answered them, saying, Who is my mother and my brethren?

34 [v]And he looked round about on them, which sat in compass about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren.

35 For whosoever doeth the will of God, he is my brother, my sister, and my mother.

Mark 3
New International Version

Jesus Heals on the Sabbath

3 Another time Jesus went into the synagogue,(A) and a man with a shriveled hand was there. 2 Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely(B) to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath.(C) 3 Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Stand up in front of everyone.”

4 Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent.

5 He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored. 6 Then the Pharisees went out and began to plot with the Herodians(D) how they might kill Jesus.(E)

Crowds Follow Jesus(F)

7 Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake, and a large crowd from Galilee followed.(G) 8 When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and the regions across the Jordan and around Tyre and Sidon.(H) 9 Because of the crowd he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, to keep the people from crowding him. 10 For he had healed many,(I) so that those with diseases were pushing forward to touch him.(J) 11 Whenever the impure spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.”(K) 12 But he gave them strict orders not to tell others about him.(L)

Jesus Appoints the Twelve(M)

13 Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him.(N) 14 He appointed twelve[a](O) that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach 15 and to have authority to drive out demons.(P) 16 These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter),(Q) 17 James son of Zebedee and his brother John (to them he gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of thunder”), 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot 19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Jesus Accused by His Family and by Teachers of the Law(R)(S)

20 Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered,(T) so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat.(U) 21 When his family[b] heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”(V)

22 And the teachers of the law who came down from Jerusalem(W) said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul!(X) By the prince of demons he is driving out demons.”(Y)

23 So Jesus called them over to him and began to speak to them in parables:(Z) “How can Satan(AA) drive out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come. 27 In fact, no one can enter a strong man’s house without first tying him up. Then he can plunder the strong man’s house.(AB) 28 Truly I tell you, people can be forgiven all their sins and every slander they utter, 29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of an eternal sin.”(AC)

30 He said this because they were saying, “He has an impure spirit.”

31 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers arrived.(AD) Standing outside, they sent someone in to call him. 32 A crowd was sitting around him, and they told him, “Your mother and brothers are outside looking for you.”

33 “Who are my mother and my brothers?” he asked.

34 Then he looked at those seated in a circle around him and said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 35 Whoever does God’s will is my brother and sister and mother.”
