馬可福音 10

1 耶穌從那裡動身，來到約旦河東的猶太境內。許多人又聚集到他那裡，他像平常一樣教導他們。2 有法利賽人前來試探耶穌，問他：“丈夫可以休妻嗎？”3 耶穌回答：“摩西吩咐你們的是甚麼呢？”4 他們說：“摩西准許‘人寫了休書就可以休妻’。”5 耶穌說：“因為你們的心硬，摩西才寫這條例給你們。6 但從起初創造的時候，　神是‘造男造女’。7 ‘因此人要離開父母，與妻子連合，8 二人成為一體了。’這樣，他們不再是兩個人，而是一體的了。9 所以　神所配合的，人不可分開。”10 回到屋子裡，門徒再提起這件事來問他。11 他對他們說：“誰休妻另娶，誰就是犯姦淫，得罪了妻子。

12 如果妻子棄夫另嫁，也是犯了姦淫。”
13 有人帶著小孩子到耶穌跟前，要他觸摸他們；門徒卻責備那些人。14 耶穌看見了就生氣，對門徒說：“讓小孩子到我這裡來，不要禁止他們，因為　神的國是屬於這樣的人的。15 我實在告訴你們，凡是不像小孩子一樣接受　神的國的，絕對不能進去。”

16 於是耶穌把小孩子抱起來，為他們按手祝福。
有錢的人難進　神的國

17 耶穌又開始他的行程。那時，有一個人跑過來，跪在他面前，問他說：“良善的老師，我當作甚麼，才可以承受永生？”18 耶穌對他說：“你為甚麼稱我是良善的？除了　神一位以外，沒有良善的。19 誡命你是知道的：不可殺人，不可姦淫，不可偷盜，不可作假證供，不可欺詐，當孝敬父母。”20 他對耶穌說：“老師，這一切我從小都遵守了。”21 耶穌看著他，就愛他，對他說：“你還缺少一件：去變賣你所有的，分給窮人，就必定有財寶在天上，而且你要來跟從我。”

22 那人聽見這話，就變了臉色，憂憂愁愁地走了，因為他的財產很多。
23 耶穌周圍觀看，對門徒說：“富有的人要進　神的國，是多麼難哪！”24 門徒都希奇他的話，耶穌又對他們說：“孩子們哪，要進　神的國，是多麼困難！25 駱駝穿過針眼，比有錢的人進　神的國還容易呢！”26 門徒就更加驚奇，彼此說：“這樣，誰可以得救呢？”27 耶穌看著他們，說：“在人不能，在　神卻不然，因為在　神凡事都能。”28 彼得對他說：“你看，我們已經捨棄了一切，而且來跟從你了。”29 耶穌說：“我實在告訴你們，人為著我和福音捨棄了房屋、弟兄、姊妹、母親、父親、兒女、田地，30 沒有不在今生得百倍─就是房屋、弟兄、姊妹、母親、兒女、田地，同時要受迫害─在來世還要得永生。

31 然而許多在前的將要在後，在後的將要在前。”
第三次預言受難及復活

32 在上耶路撒冷的路途中，耶穌走在前面，門徒希奇，跟從的人也害怕。耶穌又把十二門徒帶到一邊，把自己將要遭遇的事告訴他們，33 說：“我們現在上耶路撒冷去，人子要被交給祭司長和經學家，他們要定他的罪，並且把他交給外族人。

34 他們要凌辱他，向他吐唾沫，鞭打他，殺害他，三天以後，他要復活。”
35 西庇太的兒子雅各、約翰，來到耶穌跟前，對他說：“老師，我們無論向你求甚麼，願你為我們作成。”36 耶穌說：“要我為你們作甚麼？”37 他們說：“在你的榮耀裡，讓我們一個坐在你的右邊，一個坐在你的左邊。”38 耶穌說：“你們不知道你們求的是甚麼。我喝的杯，你們能喝嗎？我受的洗，你們能受嗎？”39 他們說：“能。”耶穌說：“我喝的杯，你們固然要喝；我受的洗，你們也要受。40 只是坐在我的左右，不是我可以賜的，而是　神預備賜給誰，就賜給誰。”41 其他十個門徒聽見了，就向雅各、約翰生氣。42 耶穌把他們叫過來，對他們說：“你們知道各國都有被尊為元首的統治他們，也有官長管轄他們。43 但你們中間卻不要這樣；誰想在你們中間為大的，就要作你們的僕役，44 誰想在你們中間為首的，就要作大家的奴僕。

45 因為人子來，不是要受人服事，而是要服事人，並且要捨命，作許多人的贖價。”
46 他們進了耶利哥。耶穌、門徒和一大群人從耶利哥出來的時候，有一個瞎眼的人，是底買的兒子，名叫巴底買，坐在路旁討飯。47 他聽見是拿撒勒人耶穌，就喊叫，說：“大衛的子孫耶穌啊，可憐我吧！”48 許多人斥責他，叫他不要出聲；他卻更加放聲喊叫：“大衛的子孫啊，可憐我吧！”49 耶穌就站住，說：“把他叫過來。”他們就叫那瞎眼的人，對他說：“放心吧，起來，他叫你了。”50 他就丟下衣服，跳起來，走到耶穌那裡。51 耶穌對他說：“你要我為你作甚麼呢？”瞎眼的人對他說：“拉波尼，我要能看見。”

52 耶穌說：“去吧，你的信使你痊愈了。”他立刻看見了，就在路上跟隨耶穌。

Mark 10

Divorce

1 Thent Jesust left that place and went to the region of Judea ands beyond the Jordan River.t Again crowds gathered to him, and again, as was his custom, he taught them.2 Then some Phariseesss came, and to test himt they asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce hist wife?”ts3 He answered them,t “What did Moses command you?”4 They said, “Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her.”ts5 But Jesus said to them, “He wrote this commandment for you because of your hard hearts.t6 But from the beginning of creation hesmade them male and female.s7 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother,s8 and the two will become one flesh.ss So they are no longer two, but one flesh.

9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
10 In the house once again, the disciples asked him about this.11 Sot he told them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.

12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”s

Jesus and Little Children

13 Nowt people were bringing little children to him for him to touch,t but the disciples scolded those who brought them.st14 But when Jesus saw this, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.s15 I tell you the truth,t whoever does not receives the kingdom of God like a childs will nevert enter it.”

16 After he took the children in his arms, he placed his hands on them and blessed them.

The Rich Man

17 Nowt as Jesusts was starting out on his way, someone ran up to him, fell on his knees, and said, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”s18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good?s No one is good except God alone.19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony,do not defraud, honor your father and mother.’”s20 The mant said to him, “Teacher, I have wholeheartedly obeyedt all these lawsts since my youth.”s21 As Jesus looked at him, he felt love for him and said, “You lack one thing. Go, sell whatever you have and give the moneyt to the poor, and you will have treasures in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 But at this statement, the mant looked sad and went away sorrowful, for he was very rich.t
23 Thent Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”24 The disciples were astonished at these words. But again Jesus said to them,t “Children, how hard it iss to enter the kingdom of God!25 It is easier for a camels to go through the eye of a needles than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”26 They were even more astonished and saidt to one another, “Thent who can be saved?”s

27 Jesus looked at them and replied, “This is impossible for mere humans,t but not for God; all things are possible for God.”
28 Peter began to speak to him, “Look,s we have left everything to follow you!”t29 Jesus said, “I tell you the truth,t there is no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for the sake of the gospel30 who will not receive in this aget a hundred times as much – homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, fields, all with persecutionst – and in the age to come, eternal life.s

31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Third Prediction of Jesus’ Death and Resurrection

32 They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem.s Jesus was going ahead of them, and they were amazed, but those who followed were afraid. He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them what was going to happen to him.33 “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and experts in the law.t They will condemn him to death and will turn him over to the Gentiles.

34 They will mock him, spit on him, flogt him severely, and kill him. Yett after three days,s he will rise again.”

The Request of James and John

35 Thent James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him and said, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”36 He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”37 They said to him, “Permit one of us to sit at your right hand and the other at your left in your glory.”38 But Jesus said to them, “You don’t know what you are asking! Are you able to drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I experience?”t39 They said to him, “We are able.”s Then Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism I experience,

40 but to sit at my right or at my left is not mine to give. It is for those for whom it has been prepared.”s
41 Nowt when the other tent heard this,t they became angry with James and John.42 Jesus called them and said to them, “You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in high positions use their authority over them.43 But it is not this way among you. Instead whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant,44 and whoever wants to be first among you must be the slavet of all.

45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransoms for many.”

Healing Blind Bartimaeus

46 They came to Jericho.s As Jesust and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to shout,t “Jesus, Son of David,s have mercys on me!”48 Many scoldedt him to get him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” Sot they called the blind man and said to him, “Have courage! Get up! He is calling you.”50 He threw off his cloak, jumped up, and came to Jesus.51 Thent Jesus said to him,t “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man replied, “Rabbi,t let me see again.”t

52 Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has healed you.” Immediately he regainedt his sight and followed him on the road.
