Mark:4-5




rkjnt@Mark:4:1 @ And again he began to teach by the seaside: and a great multitude gathered around him, so that he entered into a boat, and sat in it; and the whole multitude was on the shore.

rkjnt@Mark:4:2 @ And he taught them many things by parables, and said to them in his teaching,

rkjnt@Mark:4:3 @ Listen; Behold, a sower went out to sow:

rkjnt@Mark:4:4 @ And it came to pass, as he sowed, some seed fell by the wayside, and the birds of the air came and devoured it.

rkjnt@Mark:4:5 @ And some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil:

rkjnt@Mark:4:6 @ But when the sun came up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

rkjnt@Mark:4:7 @ And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

rkjnt@Mark:4:8 @ And other seed fell on good ground, and yielded fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some a hundredfold.

rkjnt@Mark:4:9 @ And he said to them, He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

rkjnt@Mark:4:10 @ And when he was alone, those who were about him with the twelve asked him about the parable.

rkjnt@Mark:4:11 @ And he said to them, To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to those who are outside, all these things are done in parables:

rkjnt@Mark:4:12 @ That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven.

rkjnt@Mark:4:13 @ And he said to them, Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?

rkjnt@Mark:4:14 @ The sower sows the word.

rkjnt@Mark:4:15 @ And these are the ones by the wayside, where the word is sown; when they have heard, Satan comes immediately, and takes away the word that was sown in them.

rkjnt@Mark:4:16 @ And likewise, these are the ones who are like seed sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

rkjnt@Mark:4:17 @ But have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution arises for the word's sake, they immediately fall away.

rkjnt@Mark:4:18 @ And these are the ones who are like seed sown among thorns; they hear the word,

rkjnt@Mark:4:19 @ And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lust for other things enter in, and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

rkjnt@Mark:4:20 @ And these are the ones who are like seed sown on good ground; they hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundredfold.

rkjnt@Mark:4:21 @ And he said to them, Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a lampstand?

rkjnt@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing hidden, which shall not be revealed; nor is anything kept secret that shall not come to light.

rkjnt@Mark:4:23 @ If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.

rkjnt@Mark:4:24 @ And he said to them, Take heed what you hear: with the measure you use, it shall be measured to you: and more besides.

rkjnt@Mark:4:25 @ For he who has, to him shall more be given: and he who has not, from him shall be taken even that which he has.

rkjnt@Mark:4:26 @ And he said, The kingdom of God is like a man who casts seed upon the ground;

rkjnt@Mark:4:27 @ And goes to sleep and rises, night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows up, though he does not know how.

rkjnt@Mark:4:28 @ For the earth brings forth fruit by itself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full grain in the ear.

rkjnt@Mark:4:29 @ But when the grain is ripe, immediately he puts the sickle to it, because the harvest has come.

rkjnt@Mark:4:30 @ And he said, To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? or what parable shall we use for it?

rkjnt@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a grain of mustard seed, which is the smallest seed planted in the ground:

rkjnt@Mark:4:32 @ But when it is sown, it grows up, and becomes greater than all garden herbs, and shoots out great branches; so that the birds of the air may nest under the shadow of it.

rkjnt@Mark:4:33 @ And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.

rkjnt@Mark:4:34 @ And he did not speak to them without a parable: and when they were alone, he explained all things to his disciples.

rkjnt@Mark:4:35 @ And the same day, when evening had come, he said to them, Let us pass over to the other side.

rkjnt@Mark:4:36 @ And when they had sent the multitude away, they took him just as he was in the boat. And there were also with him other boats.

rkjnt@Mark:4:37 @ And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was almost swamped.

rkjnt@Mark:4:38 @ And he was in the stern, asleep on a pillow: and they awoke him, and said to him, Teacher, do you not care that we perish?

rkjnt@Mark:4:39 @ And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

rkjnt@Mark:4:40 @ And he said to them, Why are you so fearful? how is it that you have no faith?

rkjnt@Mark:4:41 @ And they were exceedingly fearful, and said to one another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

rkjnt@Mark:5:1 @ And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Garasenes.

rkjnt@Mark:5:2 @ And when he got out of the boat, immediately there met him from out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

rkjnt@Mark:5:3 @ Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not even with chains:

rkjnt@Mark:5:4 @ Because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and he had pulled apart the chains, and broken the fetters in pieces: no man could subdue him.

rkjnt@Mark:5:5 @ And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying out, and cutting himself with stones.

rkjnt@Mark:5:6 @ But when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed before him,

rkjnt@Mark:5:7 @ And cried out with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I implore you by God, that you do not torment me.

rkjnt@Mark:5:8 @ For he was saying to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.

rkjnt@Mark:5:9 @ And he was asking him, What is your name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

rkjnt@Mark:5:10 @ And he begged him much that he would not send them out of the country.

rkjnt@Mark:5:11 @ Now there was a great herd of swine feeding there on the hillside.

rkjnt@Mark:5:12 @ And all the devils begged him, saying, Send us to the swine, that we may enter into them.

rkjnt@Mark:5:13 @ And Jesus gave them permission. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (there were about two thousand;) and they were drowned in the sea.

rkjnt@Mark:5:14 @ And those who fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And people went out to see what it was that had happened.

rkjnt@Mark:5:15 @ And they came to Jesus, and saw the man who had been possessed by the devil, who had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

rkjnt@Mark:5:16 @ And those who saw it told what happened to the man who was possessed by the devil, and to the swine.

rkjnt@Mark:5:17 @ And they began to beg him to depart from their region.

rkjnt@Mark:5:18 @ And as he got into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the devil begged him that he might go with him.

rkjnt@Mark:5:19 @ Yet Jesus did not let him, but said to him, Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how he has had compassion on you.

rkjnt@Mark:5:20 @ And he departed, and began to proclaim in Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him: and all the people were amazed.

rkjnt@Mark:5:21 @ And when Jesus crossed over again by boat to the other side, many people gathered around him: and he was near the sea.

rkjnt@Mark:5:22 @ And, behold, there came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,

rkjnt@Mark:5:23 @ And begged him greatly, saying, My little daughter lies at the point of death: I beg you, come and lay your hands on her, that she may be healed and live.

rkjnt@Mark:5:24 @ And Jesus went with him; and many people followed him, and crowded him.

rkjnt@Mark:5:25 @ And a certain woman, who had a flow of blood for twelve years,

rkjnt@Mark:5:26 @ And had suffered many things from many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was not helped, but rather grew worse,

rkjnt@Mark:5:27 @ When she heard of Jesus, came in the crowd from behind, and touched his garment.

rkjnt@Mark:5:28 @ For she said, If I just touch his clothes, I shall be healed.

rkjnt@Mark:5:29 @ And immediately the flow of blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.

rkjnt@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus, immediately knowing that power had gone out of him, turned around in the crowd, and said, Who touched my clothes?

rkjnt@Mark:5:31 @ And his disciples said to him, You see the multitude crowding you, and you say, Who touched me?

rkjnt@Mark:5:32 @ And he looked around to see the woman who had done this thing.

rkjnt@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, knowing what had happened in her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

rkjnt@Mark:5:34 @ And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.

rkjnt@Mark:5:35 @ While he was speaking, messengers came from the ruler of the synagogue's house and said, Your daughter is dead: why trouble the Teacher further?

rkjnt@Mark:5:36 @ As soon as Jesus heard what was spoken, he said to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not be afraid, only believe.

rkjnt@Mark:5:37 @ And he allowed no man to follow him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

rkjnt@Mark:5:38 @ And he came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and saw the tumult, and those who wept and wailed greatly.

rkjnt@Mark:5:39 @ And when he had come in, he said to them, Why do you make this tumult, and weep? the child is not dead, but sleeps.

rkjnt@Mark:5:40 @ And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with him, and entered in where the child was.

rkjnt@Mark:5:41 @ And he took her by the hand, and said to her, Talitha cum; which means, Little girl, I say to you, arise.

rkjnt@Mark:5:42 @ And immediately the girl arose, and walked; for she was twelve years old. And they were completely astonished.

rkjnt@Mark:5:43 @ And he strictly ordered them that no one should know of this; and told them to give her something to eat.

rkjnt@Mark:6:1 @ And he went out from there, and came into his own country; and his disciples followed him.
