on the Scriptures Together
Mark
1:16-39
[16]
Passing alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the
brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
[17] And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become
fishers of men.” [18] And immediately they left their nets and
followed him. [19] And going on a little farther, he saw James the
son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending
the nets. [20] And immediately he called them, and they left their
father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants and followed him.
[21]
And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath he
entered the synagogue and was teaching. [22] And they were astonished
at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not
as the scribes. [23] And immediately there was in their synagogue a
man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out, [24] “What have you
to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know
who you are—the Holy One of God.” [25] But Jesus rebuked him,
saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” [26] And the unclean
spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of
him. [27] And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among
themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority!
He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” [28] And
at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding
region of Galilee.
[29]
And immediately he left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon
and Andrew, with James and John. [30] Now Simon's mother-in-law lay
ill with a fever, and immediately they told him about her. [31] And
he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever
left her, and she began to serve them.
[32]
That evening at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or
oppressed by demons. [33] And the whole city was gathered together at
the door. [34] And he healed many who were sick with various
diseases, and cast out many demons. And he would not permit the
demons to speak, because they knew him.
[35]
And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he
departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed. [36]
And Simon and those who were with him searched for him, [37] and they
found him and said to him, “Everyone is looking for you.” [38]
And he said to them, “Let us go on to the next towns, that I may
preach there also, for that is why I came out.” [39] And he went
throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out
demons.
