马可福音 10

休妻的问题

（太19．1－12；路16．18）

1 耶稣从那里起身，来到犹太的境内，约旦河的东边。众人又聚集到他那里，他又照常教导他们。 2 有法利赛人来问他说：“男人休妻合不合法？”意思是要试探他。 3 耶稣回答他们说：“摩西吩咐你们的是什么？” 4 他们说：“摩西准许写了休书就可以休妻。” 5 耶稣对他们说：“摩西因为你们的心硬，所以写这诫命给你们。 6 但从起初创造的时候，上帝造人是造男造女。 7 因此，人要离开他的父母，与妻子结合t， 8 二人成为一体。既然如此，夫妻不再是两个人，而是一体的了。 9 所以，上帝配合的，人不可分开。” 10 他们到了屋里，门徒又问他这事。 11 耶稣对他们说：“凡休妻另娶的，就是犯奸淫，辜负他的妻子； 12 妻子若离弃丈夫另嫁，也是犯奸淫了。”

耶稣为小孩祝福

（太19．13－15；路18．15－17）

13 有人带着小孩子来见耶稣，要他摸他们，门徒就责备那些人。 14 耶稣看见就很生气，对门徒说：“让小孩到我这里来，不要阻止他们，因为在上帝国的正是这样的人。 15 我实在告诉你们，凡要接受上帝国的，若不像小孩子，绝不能进去。” 16 于是他抱着小孩子，给他们按手，为他们祝福。

财主寻求永生

（太19．16－30；路18．18－30）

17 耶稣刚上路的时候，有一个人跑来，跪在他面前，问他：“善良的老师，我该做什么事才能承受永生？” 18 耶稣对他说：“你为什么称我是善良的？除了上帝一位之外，再没有善良的。 19 诫命你是知道的：‘不可杀人；不可奸淫；不可偷盗；不可作假见证；不可亏负人；当孝敬父母。’” 20 他对耶稣说：“老师，这一切我从小都遵守了。” 21 耶稣看着他，就爱他，对他说：“你还缺少一件：去变卖你所有的，分给穷人，就必有财宝在天上；然后来跟从我。” 22 他听见这话，脸就变了色，忧忧愁愁地走了，因为他的产业很多。

23 耶稣看了看周围，对门徒说：“有钱财的人进上帝的国是何等的难哪！” 24 门徒对他的话非常惊奇。耶稣又对他们说：“孩子们，t要进上帝的国是何等的难哪！ 25 骆驼穿过针眼比财主进上帝的国还容易呢！” 26 门徒就更为惊讶，彼此对问：“这样，谁能得救呢？” 27 耶稣看着他们，说：“在人不能，在上帝却不然，因为在上帝凡事都能。” 28 彼得就对他说：“看哪，我们已经撇下一切跟从你了。” 29 耶稣说：“我实在告诉你们，凡为我和福音撇下房屋，或是兄弟、姊妹、父亲、母亲、儿女、田地， 30 没有不在今世得百倍的，就是房屋、兄弟、姊妹、母亲、儿女、田地，并且要受迫害，在来世得永生。 31 然而，有许多在前的，将要在后；在后的，将要在前。”

耶稣第三次预言受难和复活

（太20．17－19；路18．31－34）

32 他们行路上耶路撒冷去。耶稣在前头走，他们很惊讶，跟从的人也害怕。耶稣又叫十二使徒来，把自己将要遭遇的事告诉他们， 33 说：“看哪，我们上耶路撒冷去，人子将被交给祭司长和文士；他们要定他死罪，又交给外邦人。 34 他们要戏弄他，向他吐唾沫，鞭打他，杀害他；三天后，他要复活。”

为首与为仆

（太20．20－28）

35  西庇太的儿子雅各和约翰进前来，对耶稣说：“老师，我们无论求你什么，愿你为我们做。” 36 耶稣对他们说：“要我为你们做什么？” 37 他们对他说：“在你的荣耀里，请赐我们一个坐在你右边，一个坐在你左边。” 38 耶稣对他们说：“你们不知道所求的是什么。我所喝的杯，你们能喝吗？我所受的洗，你们能受吗？” 39 他们对他说：“我们能。”耶稣对他们说：“我所喝的杯，你们要喝；我所受的洗，你们也要受。 40 可是坐在我的左右，不是我可以赐的，而是为谁预备就赐给谁。” 41 其余十个门徒听见，就对雅各和约翰很生气。 42 耶稣叫了他们来，对他们说：“你们知道，外邦人有君王作主治理他们，有大臣操权管辖他们。 43 但是在你们中间，不可这样。你们中间谁愿为大，就要作你们的用人； 44 在你们中间谁愿为首，就要作众人的仆人。 45 因为人子来，并不是要受人的服事，乃是要服事人，并且要舍命作多人的赎价。”

治好盲人巴底买

（太20．29－34；路18．35－43）

46 他们到了耶利哥。耶稣同门徒并许多人离开耶利哥的时候，有一个讨饭的盲人，是底买的儿子巴底买，坐在路旁。 47 他听见是拿撒勒的耶稣，就喊了起来，说：“大卫之子耶稣啊，可怜我吧！” 48 有许多人责备他，不许他作声，他却越发喊着：“大卫之子啊，可怜我吧！” 49 耶稣就站住，说：“叫他过来。”他们就叫那盲人，对他说：“放心，起来！他在叫你啦。” 50 盲人就丢下衣服，跳起来，走到耶稣那里。 51 耶稣回答他说：“你要我为你做什么？”盲人对他说：“拉波尼t，我要能看见。” 52 耶稣对他说：“你去吧！你的信救了你。”盲人立刻看得见，就在路上跟随耶稣。

MARK 10

Teaching about Divorce

(Matthew 19.1-12; Luke 16.18)

1 After Jesus left, he went to Judea and then on to the other side of the Jordan River. Once again large crowds came to him, and as usual, he taught them.
2 Some Pharisees wanted to test Jesus. So they came up to him and asked if it was right for a man to divorce his wife.

3 Jesus asked them, “What does the Law of Moses say about this?”

4  t They answered, “Moses allows a man to write out divorce papers and send his wife away.”
5 Jesus replied, “Moses gave you this law because you are so heartless. 6 t But in the beginning God made a man and a woman. 7 t That's why a man leaves his father and mother and gets married. 8 He becomes like one person with his wife. Then they are no longer two people, but one.

9 And no one should separate a couple that God has joined together.”
10 When Jesus and his disciples were back in the house, they asked him about what he had said. 11 t He told them, “A man who divorces his wife and marries someone else is unfaithful to his wife.

12 A woman who divorces her husbandt and marries again is also unfaithful.”

Jesus Blesses Little Children

(Matthew 19.13-15; Luke 18.15-17)

13 Some people brought their children to Jesus so he could bless them by placing his hands on them. But his disciples told the people to stop bothering him.
14 When Jesus saw this, he became angry and said, “Let the children come to me! Don't try to stop them. People who are like these little children belong to the kingdom of God.t 15 t I promise you that you cannot get into God's kingdom, unless you accept it the way a child does.”

16 Then Jesus took the children in his arms and blessed them by placing his hands on them.

A Rich Man

(Matthew 19.16-30; Luke 18.18-30)

17 As Jesus was walking down a road, a man ran up to him. He knelt down, and asked, “Good teacher, what can I do to have eternal life?”
18 Jesus replied, “Why do you call me good? Only God is good.

19 t You know the commandments. ‘Do not murder. Be faithful in marriage. Do not steal. Do not tell lies about others. Do not cheat. Respect your father and mother.’ ”

20 The man answered, “Teacher, I have obeyed all these commandments since I was a young man.”

21 Jesus looked closely at the man. He liked him and said, “There's one thing you still need to do. Go sell everything you own. Give the money to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven. Then come with me.”

22 When the man heard Jesus say this, he went away gloomy and sad because he was very rich.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “It's hard for rich people to get into God's kingdom!” 24 The disciples were shocked to hear this. So Jesus told them again, “It's terribly hardt to get into God's kingdom!

25 In fact, it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to get into God's kingdom.”

26 Jesus' disciples were even more amazed. They asked each other, “How can anyone ever be saved?”

27 Jesus looked at them and said, “There are some things that people cannot do, but God can do anything.”

28 Peter replied, “Remember, we left everything to be your followers!”

29 Jesus told him:
You can be sure that anyone who gives up home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or land for me and for the good news 30 will be rewarded. In this world they will be given 100 times as many houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and pieces of land, though they will also be mistreated. And in the world to come, they will have eternal life.

31 t But many who are now first will be last, and many who are now last will be first.

Jesus Again //Tells about His Death

(Matthew 20.17-19; Luke 18.31-34)

32 The disciples were confused as Jesus led them toward Jerusalem, and his other followers were afraid. Once again, Jesus took the twelve disciples aside and told them what was going to happen to him. He said:
33 We are now on our way to Jerusalem where the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the teachers of the Law of Moses. They will sentence him to death and hand him over to foreigners, t

34 who will make fun of him and spit on him. They will beat him and kill him. But three days later he will rise to life.

The Request of James //and John

(Matthew 20.20-28)

35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, will you do us a favor?”
36 Jesus asked them what they wanted,

37 and they answered, “When you come into your glory, please let one of us sit at your right side and the other at your left.”t

38  t Jesus told them, “You don't really know what you're asking! Are you able to drink from the cupt that I must soon drink from or be baptized as I must be baptized?”t

39 “Yes, we are!” James and John answered.
Then Jesus replied, “You certainly will drink from the cup from which I must drink. And you will be baptized just as I must!

40 But it isn't for me to say who will sit at my right side and at my left. This is for God to decide.”
41 When the ten other disciples heard this, they were angry with James and John.

42 t But Jesus called the disciples together and said:
You know that those foreigners who call themselves kings like to order their people around. And their great leaders have full power over the people they rule. 43 t But don't act like them. If you want to be great, you must be the servant of all the others. 44 And if you want to be first, you must be everyone's slave.

45 t The Son of Man did not come to be a slave master, but a slave who will give his life to rescuet many people.

Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus

(Matthew 20.29-34; Luke 18.35-43)

46 Jesus and his disciples went to Jericho. And as they were leaving, they were followed by a large crowd. A blind beggar by the name of Bartimaeus son of Timaeus was sitting beside the road. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus from Nazareth, he shouted, “Jesus, Son of David, t have pity on me!”

48 Many people told the man to stop, but he shouted even louder, “Son of David, have pity on me!”

49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him over!”
They called out to the blind man and said, “Don't be afraid! Come on! He is calling for you.”

50 The man threw off his coat as he jumped up and ran to Jesus.

51 Jesus asked, “What do you want me to do for you?”
The blind man answered, “Master, t I want to see!”

52 Jesus told him, “You may go. Your eyes are healed because of your faith.”
At once the man could see, and he went down the road with Jesus.
