Mark 8
Names of God Bible
Jesus Feeds Four Thousand(A)
8 About that time there was once again a large crowd with nothing to eat. Yeshua called his disciples and said to them, 2 “I feel sorry for the people. They have been with me three days now and have nothing to eat. 3 If I send them home before they’ve eaten, they will become exhausted on the road. Some of them have come a long distance.”
4 His disciples asked him, “Where could anyone get enough bread to feed these people in this place where no one lives?”
5 Yeshua asked them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?”
They answered, “Seven.”
6 He ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground. He took the seven loaves and gave thanks to God. Then he broke the bread and gave it to his disciples to serve to the people. 7 They also had a few small fish. He blessed them and said that the fish should also be served to the people. 8 The people ate as much as they wanted. The disciples picked up the leftover pieces and filled seven large baskets. 9 About four thousand people were there. Then he sent the people on their way.
10 After that, Yeshua and his disciples got into a boat and went into the region of Dalmanutha.
The Pharisees Ask for a Sign from Heaven(B)
11 The Pharisees went to Yeshua and began to argue with him. They tested him by demanding that he perform a miraculous sign from heaven.
12 With a deep sigh he asked, “Why do these people demand a sign? I can guarantee this truth: If these people are given a sign, it will be far different than what they want!”
13 Then he left them there.
The Yeast of the Pharisees(C)
He got into a boat again and crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee. 14 The disciples had forgotten to take any bread along and had only one loaf with them in the boat.
15 Yeshua warned them, “Be careful! Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!”
16 They had been discussing with one another that they didn’t have any bread.
17 Yeshua knew what they were saying and asked them, “Why are you discussing the fact that you don’t have any bread? Don’t you understand yet? Don’t you catch on? Are your minds closed? 18 Are you blind and deaf? Don’t you remember? 19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets did you fill with leftover pieces?”
They told him, “Twelve.”
20 “When I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many large baskets did you fill with leftover pieces?”
They answered him, “Seven.”
21 He asked them, “Don’t you catch on yet?”
Jesus Gives Sight to a Blind Man
22 As they came to Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man to Yeshua. They begged Yeshua to touch him. 23 Yeshua took the blind man’s hand and led him out of the village. He spit into the man’s eyes and placed his hands on him. Yeshua asked him, “Can you see anything?”
24 The man looked up and said, “I see people. They look like trees walking around.”
25 Then Yeshua placed his hands on the man’s eyes a second time, and the man saw clearly. His sight was normal again. He could see everything clearly even at a distance. 26 Yeshua told him when he sent him home, “Don’t go into the village.”
Peter Declares His Belief about Jesus(D)
27 Then Yeshua and his disciples went to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say I am?”
28 They answered him, “Some say you are John the Baptizer, others Elijah, still others one of the prophets.”
29 He asked them, “But who do you say I am?”
Peter answered him, “You are the Messiah!”
30 He ordered them not to tell anyone about him.
Jesus Foretells That He Will Die and Come Back to Life(E)
31 Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man would have to suffer a lot. He taught them that he would be rejected by the leaders, the chief priests, and the experts in Moses’ Teachings. He would be killed, but after three days he would come back to life. 32 He told them very clearly what he meant.
Peter took him aside and objected to this. 33 Yeshua turned, looked at his disciples, and objected to what Peter said. Yeshua said, “Get out of my way, Satan! You aren’t thinking the way God thinks but the way humans think.”
What It Means to Follow Jesus(F)
34 Then Yeshua called the crowd to himself along with his disciples. He said to them, “Those who want to follow me must say no to the things they want, pick up their crosses, and follow me. 35 Those who want to save their lives will lose them. But those who lose their lives for me and for the Good News will save them. 36 What good does it do for people to win the whole world yet lose their lives? 37 Or what should a person give in exchange for life? 38 If people are ashamed of me and what I say in this unfaithful and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of those people when he comes with the holy angels in his Father’s glory.”
Mark 8
English Standard Version
Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand
8 (A)In those days, when again a great crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat, he called his disciples to him and said to them, 2 (B)“I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat. 3 And if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way. And some of them have come from far away.” 4 And his disciples answered him, “How can one feed these people with bread here in this desolate place?” 5 And he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, (C)“Seven.” 6 And he directed the crowd to sit down on the ground. And he took the seven loaves, and (D)having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; and they set them before the crowd. 7 And they had a few small fish. And (E)having blessed them, he said that these also should be set before them. 8 And (F)they ate and were satisfied. And they took up the broken pieces left over, (G)seven baskets full. 9 And there were about four thousand people. And he sent them away. 10 And immediately he got into (H)the boat with his disciples and went to the district of (I)Dalmanutha.[a]
The Pharisees Demand a Sign
11 (J)The Pharisees came and began to argue with him, (K)seeking from him (L)a sign from heaven (M)to test him. 12 And (N)he sighed deeply (O)in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say to you, no sign will be given to this generation.” 13 And (P)he left them, got into the boat again, and went to the other side.
The Leaven of the Pharisees and Herod
14 Now they had forgotten to bring bread, and they had only one loaf with them in the boat. 15 And he cautioned them, saying, “Watch out; (Q)beware of (R)the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of (S)Herod.”[b] 16 And they began discussing with one another the fact that they had no bread. 17 And (T)Jesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why are you discussing the fact that you have no bread? (U)Do you not yet perceive (V)or understand? (W)Are your hearts hardened? 18 (X)Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear? And do you not remember? 19 When I broke (Y)the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They said to him, “Twelve.” 20 “And (Z)the seven for the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” And they said to him, “Seven.” 21 And he said to them, “Do you not yet understand?”
Jesus Heals a Blind Man at Bethsaida
22 And they came (AA)to Bethsaida. And some people brought to him a blind man and begged him to touch him. 23 And (AB)he took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village, and when (AC)he had (AD)spit on his eyes and (AE)laid his hands on him, he asked him, “Do you see anything?” 24 And he looked up and said, “I see people, but they look like trees, walking.” 25 Then Jesus[c] laid his hands on his eyes again; and he opened his eyes, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. 26 And he sent him to his home, saying, (AF)“Do not even enter the village.”
Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ
27 (AG)And Jesus went on with his disciples to the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?” 28 And they told him, (AH)“John the Baptist; and others say, (AI)Elijah; and others, one of the prophets.” 29 And he asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered him, (AJ)“You are (AK)the Christ.” 30 (AL)And he strictly charged them to tell no one about him.
Jesus Foretells His Death and Resurrection
31 (AM)And he began to teach them that (AN)the Son of Man must (AO)suffer many things and (AP)be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed, and (AQ)after three days rise again. 32 And he said this (AR)plainly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. 33 But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, (AS)“Get behind me, Satan! For you (AT)are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.”
34 And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let him (AU)deny himself and (AV)take up his cross and follow me. 35 For (AW)whoever would save his life[d] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake (AX)and the gospel's will save it. 36 (AY)For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? 37 For (AZ)what can a man give in return for his soul? 38 For (BA)whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this (BB)adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed (BC)when he comes in the glory of his Father with (BD)the holy angels.”
Marcos 8
Biblia del Jubileo
8 ¶ En aquellos días, como otra vez hubo gran multitud, y no tenían qué comer, Jesús llamó a sus discípulos, y les dijo:
2 Tengo misericordia de la multitud, porque ya hace tres días que están conmigo; y no tienen qué comer.
3 Si los envío en ayunas a sus casas, desmayarán en el camino; porque algunos de ellos han venido de lejos.
4 Sus discípulos le respondieron: ¿De dónde podrá alguien saciar a éstos de pan aquí en el desierto?
5 Y les preguntó: ¿Cuántos panes tenéis? Y ellos dijeron: Siete.
6 Entonces mandó a la multitud que se recostara en tierra; y tomando los siete panes, habiendo dado gracias, partió, y dio a sus discípulos que pusieran delante; y los pusieron delante a la multitud.
7 Tenían también unos pocos pececillos; y los bendijo, y mandó que también los pusieran delante.
8 Y comieron, y se saciaron; y levantaron de los pedazos que habían sobrado, siete canastas.
9 Y eran los que comieron, como cuatro mil; y los despidió.
10 ¶ Luego entrando en el barco con sus discípulos, vino a la región de Dalmanuta.
11 Y vinieron los fariseos, y comenzaron a altercar con él, demandándole señal del cielo, tentándole.
12 Y gimiendo de su espíritu, dice: ¿Por qué pide señal esta generación? De cierto os digo que no se dará señal a esta generación.
13 Y dejándolos, volvió a entrar en el barco, y se fue a la otra ribera.
14 Y se habían olvidado de tomar pan, y no tenían sino un pan consigo en el barco.
15 Y les mandó, diciendo: Mirad, guardaos de la levadura de los fariseos, y de la levadura de Herodes.
16 Y altercaban los unos con los otros diciendo: Pan no tenemos.
17 Y como Jesús lo entendió, les dice: ¿Qué altercáis, porque no tenéis pan? ¿No consideráis ni entendéis? ¿Aún tenéis ciego vuestro corazón?
18 ¿Teniendo ojos no veis, y teniendo oídos no oís? ¿Y no os acordáis?
19 Cuando partí los cinco panes entre cinco mil, ¿cuántas canastas llenas de los pedazos alzasteis? Y ellos dijeron: Doce.
20 Y cuando los siete panes entre cuatro mil, ¿cuántas canastas llenas de los pedazos alzasteis? Y ellos dijeron: Siete.
21 Y les dijo: ¿Cómo aún no entendéis?
22 ¶ Y vino a Betsaida; y le traen un ciego, y le ruegan que le tocara.
23 Entonces, tomando la mano del ciego, le sacó fuera de la aldea; y escupiendo en sus ojos, y poniéndole las manos encima, le preguntó si veía algo.
24 Y él mirando, dijo: Veo los hombres, pues veo que andan como árboles.
25 Luego le puso otra vez las manos sobre sus ojos, y le hizo que mirara; y fue sano, y vio de lejos y claramente a todos.
26 Y le envió a su casa, diciendo: No entres en la aldea, ni lo digas a nadie en la aldea.
27 ¶ Salió Jesús y sus discípulos por las aldeas de Cesarea de Filipo. Y en el camino preguntó a sus discípulos, diciéndoles: ¿Quién dicen los hombres que soy yo?
28 Ellos respondieron: Juan Bautista; y otros, Elías; y otros: Alguno de los profetas.
29 Entonces él les dice: Y vosotros, ¿quién decís que soy yo? Y respondiendo Pedro, le dice: ¡Tú eres el Cristo!
30 Y les mandó que no hablaran esto de él a ninguno.
31 Y comenzó a enseñarles, que convenía que el Hijo del hombre padeciera mucho, y ser reprobado de los ancianos, y de los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y de los escribas; y ser muerto, y resucitar después de tres días.
32 Y claramente decía esta palabra. Entonces Pedro le tomó, y le comenzó a reprender.
33 Y él, volviéndose y mirando a sus discípulos, riñó a Pedro, diciendo: Apartate de mí, Satanás; porque no sabes las cosas que son de Dios, sino las que son de los hombres.
34 Y llamando a la multitud con sus discípulos, les dijo: Cualquiera que quisiere venir en pos de mí, niéguese a sí mismo, y tome su madero, y sígame.
35 Porque el que quisiere salvar su vida, la perderá; y el que perdiere su vida por causa de mí y del Evangelio, éste la salvará.
36 Porque ¿qué aprovechará al hombre, si ganare todo el mundo, y perdiere su alma?
37 ¿O qué recompensa dará el hombre por su alma?
38 Porque el que se avergonzare de mí y de mis palabras en esta generación adulterina y pecadora, el Hijo del hombre se avergonzará también de él, cuando vendrá en la gloria de su Padre con los santos ángeles.
