Mark 6:1-6
Wycliffe Bible
6 And he went out from thence, and went into his own country; and his disciples followed him.
2 And when the sabbath was come, Jesus began to teach in a synagogue. And many heard him, and wondered in his teaching, and said, Of whence cometh to this [man] all these things? and what is the wisdom that is given to him, and such works of power which be made by his hands? [And the sabbath made, he began to teach in a synagogue. And many hearing wondered in his teaching, saying, Of whence be all these things to this man? and what is the wisdom which is given to him, and such virtues that be made by his hands?]
3 Whether this is not a carpenter [Whether this is not the smith, or carpenter], the son of Mary, the brother of James and of Joseph and of Judas and of Simon? whether [and] his sisters be not here with us? And they were offended in him.
4 And Jesus said to them, That a prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his kin, and in his house.
5 And he might not do there any work of power [any virtue], save that he healed a few sick men, laying on them his hands.
6 And he wondered for the unbelief of them. And he went about castles on each side, and taught [And he went about castles in compass, teaching].

Mark 6:1-6
New Matthew Bible
Christ sends his apostles to heal people who were diseased. Of John and Herod. Of the five loaves and two fishes, and of the walking on the sea.
6 And he departed from there and went into his own country, and his disciples followed him. 2 And when the Sabbath day came, he began to teach in the synagogue. And many who heard him were astonished and said, Where does he have these things from? And what wisdom is this that is given to him? And such miracles that are wrought by his hands! 3 Is this not that carpenter – Mary’s son, the brother of James and Joses, and of Judas and Simon? And are his sisters not here with us?
And they were offended by him. 4 And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honour but in his own country, and among his own kin, and among those who are of the same household. 5 And he could show no miracles there, except he laid his hands upon a few sick folk and healed them. 6 And he marvelled at their unbelief.
And he went about by the towns that lay on every side, teaching.

Mark 6:1-6
1599 Geneva Bible
6 3 Christ preaching in his country, his own condemn him. 6 The unbelief of the Nazarites. 7 The Apostles are sent. 13 They cast out devils: they anoint the sick with oil. 14 Herod’s opinion of Christ. 18 The cause of John’s imprisonment. 22 Dancing. 27 John beheaded, 29 buried. 30 The Apostles return from preaching. 34 Christ teacheth in the desert. 37 He feedeth the people with five loaves. 48 The Apostles are troubled on the sea. 56 The sick that touch Christ’s garment, are healed.
1 And (A)[a]he departed thence, and came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.
2 And when the Sabbath was come, he began to teach in the Synagogue, and many that heard him, were astonied, and said, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this that is given unto him, that even such [b]great works are done by his hands?
3 Is not this that carpenter Mary’s son, the brother of James and Joses, and of Judas and Simon? and are not his [c]sisters here with us? And they were offended in him.
4 And Jesus said unto them, A (B)Prophet is not without [d]honor, but in his own country, and among his own kindred, and in his own house.
5 And he [e]could there do no great works, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
6 And he marveled at their unbelief, (C)and went about by the towns on every side, teaching.

Authorized (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 he went round about the villages, teaching.
