Meditating
on the Scriptures Together
Mark
1:1-15
[1]
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
[2]
As it is written in Isaiah the prophet,
“Behold,
I send my messenger before your face,
who
will prepare your way,
[3]
the voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare
the way of the Lord,
make
his paths straight,’”
[4]
John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism
of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. [5] And all the country of
Judea and all Jerusalem were going out to him and were being baptized
by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. [6] Now John was
clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist
and ate locusts and wild honey. [7] And he preached, saying, “After
me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am
not worthy to stoop down and untie. [8] I have baptized you with
water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
[9]
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by
John in the Jordan. [10] And when he came up out of the water,
immediately he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit
descending on him like a dove. [11] And a voice came from heaven,
“You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”
[12]
The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. [13] And he
was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. And he was
with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him.
[14]
Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the
gospel of God, [15] and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the
kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.”
