Mark 11:15-33
151ThenG2532 they cameG2064 to JerusalemG2414. And He enteredG1525 the templeG2413 and beganG757 to driveG1544 out thoseG3588 who were buyingG59 and sellingG4453 in the templeG2413, and overturnedG2690 the tablesG5132 of the moneyG2855 changersG2855 and the seatsG2515 of thoseG3588 who were sellingG4453 2dovesG4058; 16and He would not permitG863 anyoneG5100 to carryG1308 3merchandiseG4632 throughG1223 the templeG2413. 17And He began to teachG1321 and sayG3004 to them, “Is it not writtenG1125, ‘4My houseG3624 shall be calledG2564 a houseG3624 of prayerG4335 for allG3956 the nationsG1484’? 5But you have madeG4160 it a robbers’G3027 6denG4693.” 18The chiefG749 priestsG749 and the scribesG1122 heardG191 this, and 7began seekingG2212 howG4459 to destroyG622 Him; for they were afraidG5399 of Him, for 8the wholeG3956 crowdG3793 was astonishedG1605 at His teachingG1322.
199WhenG3752 eveningG3796 cameG1096, 10they would goG1607 out of the cityG4172.
2011As they were passingG3899 by in the morningG4404, they sawG3708 the figG4808 treeG4808 witheredG3583 from the rootsG4491 up. 21Being remindedG363, PeterG4074 saidG3004 to Him, “12RabbiG4461, lookG2396, the figG4808 treeG4808 whichG3739 You cursedG2672 has witheredG3583.” 22And JesusG2424 answeredG611 sayingG3004 to them, “13HaveG2192 faithG4102 in GodG2316. 2314TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, whoeverG3739G302 saysG3004 to thisG3778 mountainG3735, ‘Be takenG142 up and castG906 into the seaG2281,’ and does not doubtG1252 in his heartG2588, but believesG4100 that whatG3739 he saysG2980 is going to happenG1096, it will be granted him. 24ThereforeG1223G3778 I sayG3004 to you, 15allG3956 thingsG3956 for whichG3745 you prayG4336 and askG154, believeG4100 that you have receivedG2983 them, and they will be granted you. 25WheneverG3752 you 16standG4739 prayingG4336, 17forgiveG863, ifG1487 you haveG2192 anythingG5100 againstG2596 anyoneG5100, soG2443 that your FatherG3962 whoG3588 is in heavenG3772 will alsoG2532 forgiveG863 you your transgressionsG3900. 26[1819But ifG1487 you do not forgiveG863, neitherG3761 will your FatherG3962 whoG3588 is in heavenG3772 forgiveG863 your transgressionsG3900.”]
27They cameG2064 againG3825 to JerusalemG2414. 20And as He was walkingG4043 in the templeG2413, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the scribesG1122 and the eldersG4245 cameG2064 to Him, 28and began sayingG3004 to Him, “By whatG4169 authorityG1849 are You doingG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778, orG2228 whoG5101 gaveG1325 You thisG3778 authorityG1849 to doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778?” 29And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “I will askG1905 you oneG1520 questionG3056, and you answerG611 Me, and then I will tellG3004 you by whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778. 30Was the baptismG908 of JohnG2491 from heavenG3772, orG2228 from menG444? AnswerG611 Me.” 31They began reasoningG1260 amongG4314 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004, “IfG1437 we sayG3004, ‘From heavenG3772,’ He will sayG3004, ‘ThenG3767 whyG1223G5101 did you not believeG4100 him?’ 32But 21shall we sayG3004, ‘From menG444’?”--they were afraidG5399 of the peopleG3793, for everyoneG537 consideredG2192 JohnG2491 to have beenG1510 a realG3689 prophetG4396. 33AnsweringG611 JesusG2424, they saidG3004, “We do not knowG3609.” And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “NorG3761 22will I tellG3004 you by whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778.”
