3:1 And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there who had his hand withered.
3:2 And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day; that they might accuse him. 3:3 And he says to the man who had his hand withered, Stand in the middle [of the synagogue]. 3:4 And he says to them, Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a soul, or to kill? But they held their peace. 3:5 And when he had looked around on them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their heart, he says to the man, Stretch forth [your] hand. And he stretched it forth; and his hand was restored. 3:6 And the Pharisees went out, and right away with the Herodians gave counsel against him, how they might destroy him. 3:7 And Jesus with his disciples withdrew to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed; and from Judea, 3:8 and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him. 3:9 And he spoke to his disciples, that a little boat should wait on him because of the crowd, lest they should throng him: 3:10 for he had healed many; insomuch that as many as had plagues pressed on him that they might touch him. 3:11 And the unclean spirits, whenever they looked at him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, You are the Son of God. 3:12 And he charged them much that they should not make him known. 3:13 And he goes up into the mountain, and calls to him whom he himself wanted; and they went to him. 3:14 And he appointed twelve, whom he also named apostles, that they might be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, 3:15 and to have authority to cast out demons. 3:16 And he appointed the twelve: and he gave the name Peter to Simon; 3:17 and James the [son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he gave them the name Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder: 3:18 and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, 3:19 and Judas Iscariot, who also delivered him up. 3:20 And he comes into a house. And the multitude comes together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread. 3:21 And when his friends heard it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself. 3:22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebul, and, By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons. 3:23 And he called them to him, and said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? 3:24 And if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom can't stand. 3:25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 3:26 And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he can't stand, but has an end. 3:27 But no one can enter into the house of the strong [man], and spoil his goods, except he first binds the strong [man]; and then he will spoil his house. 3:28 Truly I say to you+, All their sins will be forgiven to the sons of men, and their blasphemies by whichever they will blaspheme: 3:29 but whoever will blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin: 3:30 because they said, He has an unclean spirit. 3:31 And his mother and his brothers come; and, standing outside, they sent to him, calling him. 3:32 And a multitude was sitting about him; and they say to him, Look, your mother and your brothers and your sisters outside seek for you. 3:33 And he answers them, and says, Who is my mother and my brothers? 3:34 And looking around on those who sat around him, he says, Here are my mother and my brothers. 3:35 For whoever will do the will of God, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. |
