Mark 2

1AndG2532 againG3825 he enteredG1525 intoG1519 CapernaumG2584 afterG1223 some daysG2250; andG2532 it was noisedG191 thatG3754 he wasG1510 inG1519 the houseG3624.

2AndG2532 straightwayG2112 manyG4183 were gathered togetherG4863, insomuch thatG5620 there was no roomG3371 to receiveG5562 them, no, not so much asG3366 aboutG4314 the doorG3588G2374: andG2532 he preachedG2980 the wordG3588G3056 unto themG846.

3AndG2532 they comeG2064 untoG4314 himG846, bringingG5342 one sick of the palsyG3885, which was borneG142 ofG5259 fourG5064.

4AndG2532 when they couldG1410 notG3361 come nigh untoG4331 himG846 forG1223 the pressG3588G3793, they uncoveredG648 the roofG3588G4721 whereG3699 he wasG1510: andG2532 when they had brokenG1846 it upG1846, they let downG5465 the bedG3588G2895 whereinG1909G3739 the sick of the palsyG3885 layG2621.

5WhenG3708 JesusG3588G2424 sawG3708 theirG846 faithG3588G4102, he saidG3004 unto the sick of the palsyG3885, SonG5043, thyG4771 sinsG3588G266 be forgivenG863 theeG4771.

6ButG1161 there wereG1510 certainG5100 of the scribesG3588G1122 sittingG2521 thereG1563, andG2532 reasoningG1260 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG3588G2588,

7WhyG5101 dothG2980 thisG3778 man thusG3779 speakG2980 blasphemiesG988? whoG5101 canG1410 forgiveG863 sinsG266 butG1487G3361 GodG3588G2316 onlyG1520?

8AndG2532 immediatelyG2112 whenG1921 JesusG3588G2424 perceivedG1921 inG3588G4151 hisG846 spiritG3588G4151 thatG3754 theyG1260 soG3779 reasonedG1260 withinG1722 themselvesG1438, he saidG3004 unto themG846, WhyG5101 reason yeG1260 these thingsG3778 inG1722 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588?

9WhetherG5101 is itG1510 easierG2123 to sayG3004 to the sick of the palsyG3885, Thy sinsG3588G266 be forgivenG863 theeG4771; orG2228 to sayG3004, AriseG1453, andG2532 take upG142 thyG4771 bedG3588G2895, andG2532 walkG4043?

10ButG1161 thatG2443 ye may knowG1492 thatG3754 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 hathG2192 authorityG1849 onG1909 earthG3588G1093 to forgiveG863 sinsG266, (he saithG3004 to the sick of the palsyG3885,)

11I sayG3004 unto theeG4771, AriseG1453, andG2532 take upG142 thyG4771 bedG3588G2895, andG2532 go thy wayG5217 intoG1519 thineG4771 houseG3588G3624.

12AndG2532 immediatelyG2112 he aroseG1453, took upG142 the bedG3588G2895, andG2532 went forthG1831 beforeG1726 them allG3956; insomuch thatG5620 they were allG3956 amazedG1839, andG2532 glorifiedG1392 GodG3588G2316, sayingG3004, WeG3708 neverG3763 sawG3708 it on this fashionG3779.

13AndG2532 he went forthG1831 againG3825 byG3844 the sea sideG3588G2281; andG2532 allG3956 the multitudeG3588G3793 resortedG2064 untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 he taughtG1321 themG846.

14AndG2532 as he passed byG3855, he sawG3708 LeviG3018 theG3588 son of AlphæusG3588G256 sittingG2521 atG1909 the receipt of customG3588G5058, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, FollowG190 meG1473. AndG2532 heG190 arose andG450 followedG190 himG846.

15AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, asG1722 JesusG846 sat at meatG2621 inG1722 hisG846 houseG3588G3614, manyG4183 publicansG5057 andG2532 sinnersG268 satG4873 alsoG2532 togetherG4873 with JesusG3588G2424 andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101: forG1063 there wereG1510 manyG4183, andG2532 they followedG190 himG846.

16AndG2532 when the scribesG3588G1122 andG2532 PhariseesG3588G5330 sawG3708 himG846 eatG2068 withG3326 publicansG3588G5057 andG2532 sinnersG268, they saidG3004 untoG3588G3101 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, How is itG5101 thatG3754 he eatethG2068 andG2532 drinkethG4095 withG3326 publicansG3588G5057 andG2532 sinnersG268?

17WhenG191 JesusG3588G2424 heardG191 it, he saithG3004 unto themG846, They that are wholeG2480 haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 of the physicianG2395, butG235 they that areG2192 sickG2560: I cameG2064 notG3756 to callG2564 the righteousG1342, butG235 sinnersG268 toG1519 repentanceG3341.

18AndG2532 the disciplesG3588G3101 of JohnG2491 andG2532 of the PhariseesG3588G5330 usedG1510 to fastG3522: andG2532 they comeG2064 andG2532 sayG3004 unto himG846, WhyG1223G5101 do the disciplesG3588G3101 of JohnG2491 andG2532 of the PhariseesG3588G5330 fastG3522, butG1161 thyG4674 disciplesG3101 fastG3522 notG3756?

19AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, CanG3361G1410 the childrenG3588G5207 of the bridechamberG3588G3567 fastG3522, whileG1722G3739 the bridegroomG3588G3566 isG1510 withG3326 themG846? as long asG5550G3745 they haveG2192 the bridegroomG3588G3566 withG3326 themG1438, they cannotG3756G1410 fastG3522.

20ButG1161 the daysG2250 will comeG2064, whenG3752 the bridegroomG3588G3566 shall be taken awayG522 fromG575 themG846, andG2532 thenG5119 shall they fastG3522 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG3588G2250.

21No manG3762 alsoG2532 sewethG1976 a pieceG1915 of newG46 clothG4470 onG1909 anG2440 oldG3820 garmentG2440: elseG1161G1487G3361 the new pieceG2537 that filledG3588G4138 itG846 upG3588G4138 taketh away fromG142 the oldG3820, andG2532 the rentG4978 is madeG1096 worseG5501.

22AndG2532 no manG3762 puttethG906 newG3501 wineG3631 intoG1519 oldG3820 bottlesG779: elseG1487G1161G3361 theG3588G3631 newG3501 wineG3588G3631 doth burstG4486 the bottlesG3588G779, andG2532 the wineG3588G3631 is spilledG1632, andG2532 the bottlesG3588G779 will be marredG622: butG235 newG3501 wineG3631 must be putG992 intoG1519 newG2537 bottlesG779.

23AndG2532 it came to passG1096, thatG3899 heG846 wentG3899 throughG1223 the grainfieldsG4702 onG1722 the sabbath dayG3588G4521; andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 beganG756, as they wentG3598, to pluckG4160G5089 the heads of grainG3588G4719.

24AndG2532 the PhariseesG3588G5330 saidG3004 unto himG846, BeholdG3708, whyG5101 do theyG4160 onG1722 the sabbath dayG3588G4521 that whichG3739 isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832?

25AndG2532 heG846 saidG3004 unto themG846, Have yeG314 neverG3763 readG314 whatG5101 DavidG1138 didG4160, whenG3753 he hadG2192 needG5532, andG2532 was an hungredG3983, heG846, andG2532 they that wereG3588 withG3326 himG846?

26HowG4459 he wentG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3588G3624 of GodG3588G2316 in the days ofG1909 AbiatharG8 the high priestG3588G749, andG2532 did eatG5315 the shewbreadG3588G740G4286, whichG3739 isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832 to eatG5315 butG1487G3361 for the priestsG3588G2409, andG2532 gaveG1325 alsoG2532 to them whichG3588 wereG1510 withG4862 himG846?

27AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto themG846, The sabbathG3588G4521 was madeG1096 forG1223 manG3588G444, and notG3756 manG3588G444 forG1223 the sabbathG3588G4521:

28ThereforeG5620 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 isG1510 LordG2962 alsoG2532 of the sabbathG3588G4521.
