Markus 3
Bibelen på hverdagsdansk
Jesus helbreder en mand på sabbatten(A)
3 Jesus og disciplene gik ind i en synagoge, og dér var der en mand med en forkrøblet hånd. 2 Farisæerne holdt øje med Jesus for at se, om han ville helbrede manden på en sabbat, for så havde de noget at anklage ham for.
3 Jesus sagde nu til manden med den forkrøblede hånd: „Rejs dig op og stå her i midten.” 4 Derefter spurgte han forsamlingen: „Hvad siger Guds lov? Skal hviledagen bruges til noget godt eller til noget ondt, til at redde liv eller til at ødelægge liv?” Men ingen svarede. 5 Jesus så rundt på forsamlingen, vred og bedrøvet over deres stenhårde hjerter. Så sagde han til manden: „Ræk hånden frem!” Det gjorde han—og straks blev hånden rask.
6 Farisæerne rejste sig øjeblikkeligt og forlod synagogen. Kort efter mødtes de med herodianerne for at drøfte, hvordan de kunne få skaffet Jesus af vejen.
Masser af mennesker flokkes om Jesus
7 Jesus og hans disciple gik nu ned mod søen, og en masse mennesker fulgte efter dem. De fleste kom fra Galilæa, men mange kom helt fra Judæa, 8 Jerusalem, Idumæa og fra landet på den anden side af Jordanfloden—ja, endog helt fra Tyrus og Sidon. De store undere, Jesus gjorde, rygtedes vidt omkring, og folk kom strømmende for at se, hvad der foregik. 9 Jesus gav sine disciple besked på at holde en båd klar, så han kunne gå om bord i den, hvis han blev for voldsomt trængt af folkeskaren på bredden. 10 For han helbredte så mange mennesker, at de syge pressede på fra alle sider for at røre ved ham. 11 Når de, som var plaget af dæmoner, så ham, faldt de på knæ foran ham og skreg: „Du er Guds Søn!” 12 Men Jesus forbød dem strengt at røbe, hvem han var.
Jesus udvælger de 12 apostle(B)
13 En dag gik Jesus op på en bakketop for at bede. Deredter kaldte han på de disciple, som han ønskede, og de kom til ham. 14 På den måde gjorde han 12 af sine disciple til apostle. De skulle stå i lære hos ham, så han senere kunne sende dem ud med fuldmagt til at forkynde det glædelige budskab 15 og til at uddrive onde ånder. 16 Her er navnene på de 12: Simon, som Jesus senere gav navnet Peter; 17 Jakob og Johannes, der var sønner af Zebedæus (de blev kaldt „Tordensønnerne”); 18 Andreas; Filip; Bartolomæus; Mattæus; Thomas; Jakob, søn af Alfæus; Taddæus; Simon Frihedskæmper[a] 19 og Judas Iskariot, der senere forrådte Jesus.
Jesus under falsk anklage(C)
20 Når Jesus og hans disciple gik hjem, fulgte der ofte så mange mennesker med ind i huset, at de ikke engang kunne komme til at spise. 21 Da hans familie hørte om det, tog de af sted for at få fat i ham, for de mente, at han var gået fra forstanden.
22 Nogle skriftlærde, der var kommet helt fra Jerusalem, gik rundt og sagde: „Jesus står i ledtog med Satan,[b] de onde ånders fyrste. Det er derfor, han kan uddrive de onde ånder!”
23 Jesus kaldte dem til sig og talte til dem i billeder: 24 „Hvordan kan Satan uddrive sine egne onde ånder?” spurgte han. „Et land, som ligger i krig med sig selv, kan ikke bestå, 25 og et hjem, der er i splid med sig selv, går snart i opløsning. 26 Hvis Satan nu er begyndt at kæmpe mod sine egne, så er han kommet i krig med sig selv, og det er ude med ham.
27 Man kan ikke bare bryde ind i en stærk mands hus og tage, hvad han har. Man må først binde ham. Derefter kan man tage, hvad han har i sit hus.
28 Det siger jeg jer: Mennesker kan få tilgivelse for al deres synd og al deres gudsbespottelse, 29 men hvis de håner Helligånden, så er der ingen tilgivelse længere. Det er en synd med evige konsekvenser.” 30 Det sagde Jesus til dem, fordi de påstod, at det var ved Satans kraft og ikke ved Helligåndens kraft, han uddrev de onde ånder.
De, der gør Guds vilje, hører Jesus til(D)
31-32 Nu kom så Jesu mor og brødre til det overfyldte hus, hvor han underviste. De sendte bud ind til ham og bad ham komme udenfor. „Din mor og dine brødre står udenfor og vil tale med dig,” sagde de, der sad nærmest ved ham. 33 „Hvem er i virkeligheden min mor og mine brødre?” spurgte Jesus og lod blikket glide rundt på den forsamling, der sad omkring ham: 34 „Min mor og mine brødre sidder her! 35 For den, der gør Guds vilje, er min bror eller søster eller mor.”

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.”
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.”

English Standard Version
A Man with a Withered Hand
3 (A)Again (B)he entered the synagogue, and a man was there with a withered hand. 2 And (C)they watched Jesus,[a] to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse him. 3 And he said to the man with the withered hand, “Come here.” 4 And he said to them, (D)“Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent. 5 And he (E)looked around at them with anger, grieved at (F)their hardness of heart, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” (G)He stretched it out, and his hand was restored. 6 (H)The Pharisees went out and immediately (I)held counsel with (J)the Herodians against him, how to destroy him.
A Great Crowd Follows Jesus
7 (K)Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and (L)a great crowd followed, from Galilee and Judea 8 and Jerusalem and (M)Idumea and from beyond the Jordan and from around (N)Tyre and Sidon. When the great crowd heard all that he was doing, they came to him. 9 And he told his disciples to (O)have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they (P)crush him, 10 for (Q)he had healed many, so that all who had (R)diseases pressed around him (S)to touch him. 11 (T)And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they (U)fell down before him and cried out, “You are (V)the Son of God.” 12 And (W)he strictly ordered them not to make him known.
The Twelve Apostles
13 (X)And he went up on the mountain and called to him those (Y)whom he desired, and they came to him. 14 (Z)And he appointed twelve (whom he also named apostles) so that they might be with him and he might send them out to preach 15 (AA)and have authority to cast out demons. 16 He appointed the twelve: (AB)Simon (to whom (AC)he gave the name Peter); 17 (AD)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, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and (AE)Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot,[b] 19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
20 Then he went (AF)home, and the crowd gathered again, (AG)so that they could not even eat. 21 (AH)And when (AI)his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, “He (AJ)is out of his mind.”
Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit
22 And (AK)the scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, (AL)“He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “by the prince of demons he casts out the demons.” 23 (AM)And he called them to him 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 will not be able to stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end. 27 But (AN)no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. (AO)Then indeed he may plunder his house.
28 (AP)“Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter, 29 but whoever (AQ)blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”— 30 for they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”
Jesus' Mother and Brothers
31 (AR)And his mother and his (AS)brothers came, and standing outside they sent to him and called him. 32 And a crowd was sitting around him, and they said to him, “Your mother and your brothers[c] are outside, seeking you.” 33 And he answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?” 34 And (AT)looking about at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 35 (AU)For whoever (AV)does the will of God, he is my brother and sister and mother.”
