Mark.10.25

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Mark.10.25

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

Mark.10.25

Mark.10.26

And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?

Mark.10.26

Mark.10.26

And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, "Who then can be saved?"

Mark.10.26

The disciples were astounded. "Then who in the world can be saved?" they asked.

Mark.10.27

And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Mark.10.27

Jesus was blunt: "No chance at all if you think you can pull it off by yourself. Every chance in the world if you let God do it."

Mark.10.27

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."

Mark.10.27

But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."

Mark.10.27

Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But not with God. Everything is possible with God."

Mark.10.28

Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.

Mark.10.28

Peter tried another angle: "We left everything and followed you."

Mark.10.28

Peter said to him, "We have left everything to follow you!"

Mark.10.28

Then Peter began to say to Him, "See, we have left all and followed You."

Mark.10.28

Then Peter began to mention all that he and the other disciples had left behind. "We've given up everything to follow you," he said.

Mark.10.29

And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,

Mark.10.29

Jesus said, "Mark my words, no one who sacrifices house, brothers, sisters, mother, father, children, land--whatever-because of me and the Message

Mark.10.29

"I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel

Mark.10.29

So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's,

Mark.10.29

And Jesus replied, "I assure you that everyone who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or property, for my sake and for the Good News,

Mark.10.30

But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.

Mark.10.30

will lose out. They'll get it all back, but multiplied many times in homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land--but also in troubles. And then the bonus of eternal life!

Mark.10.30

will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields--and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life.

Mark.10.30

who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions--and in the age to come, eternal life.

Mark.10.30

will receive now in return, a hundred times over, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and property--with persecutions. And in the world to come they will have eternal life.

Mark.10.31

But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.

Mark.10.31

This is once again the Great Reversal: Many who are first will end up last, and the last first."

Mark.10.31

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

Mark.10.31

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

Mark.10.31

But many who seem to be important now will be the least important then, and those who are considered least here will be the greatest then. "

Mark.10.32

And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,

Mark.10.32

They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and the disciples were astonished, while those who followed were afraid. Again he took the Twelve aside and told them what was going to happen to him.

Mark.10.32

Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amazed. And as they followed they were afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him:

Mark.10.32

They were now on the way to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them. The disciples were filled with dread and the people following behind were overwhelmed with fear. Taking the twelve disciples aside, Jesus once more began to describe everything that was about to happen to him in Jerusalem.

Mark.10.33

Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:

Mark.10.33

Mark.10.34

And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

Mark.10.34

who will mock and spit on him, give him the third degree, and kill him. After three days he will rise alive."

Mark.10.34

who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise."

Mark.10.34

and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again."

Mark.10.34

They will mock him, spit on him, beat him with their whips, and kill him, but after three days he will rise again."

Mark.10.35

And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.

Mark.10.35

James and John, Zebedee's sons, came up to him. "Teacher, we have something we want you to do for us."

Mark.10.35

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. "Teacher," they said, "we want you to do for us whatever we ask."

Mark.10.35

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask."

Mark.10.35

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came over and spoke to him. "Teacher," they said, "we want you to do us a favor."

Mark.10.36

And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?

Mark.10.36

"What is it? I'll see what I can do."

Mark.10.36

"What do you want me to do for you?" he asked.

Mark.10.36

And He said to them, "What do you want Me to do for you?"

Mark.10.36

"What is it?" he asked.

Mark.10.37

They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.

Mark.10.37

"Arrange it," they said, "so that we will be awarded the highest places of honor in your glory--one of us at your right, the other at your left."

Mark.10.37

They replied, "Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory."

Mark.10.37

They said to Him, "Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory."

Mark.10.37

"In your glorious Kingdom, we want to sit in places of honor next to you," they said, "one at your right and the other at your left."

Mark.10.38

But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

Mark.10.38

Jesus said, "You have no idea what you're asking. Are you capable of drinking the cup I drink, of being baptized in the baptism I'm about to be plunged into?"

Mark.10.38

"You don't know what you are asking," Jesus said. "Can you drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?"

Mark.10.38

But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

Mark.10.38

But Jesus answered, "You don't know what you are asking! Are you able to drink from the bitter cup of sorrow I am about to drink? Are you able to be baptized with the baptism of suffering I must be baptized with?"

Mark.10.39

And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:

Mark.10.39

"Sure," they said. "Why not?" Jesus said, "Come to think of it, you will drink the cup I drink, and be baptized in my baptism.

Mark.10.39

"We can," they answered. Jesus said to them, "You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with,

Mark.10.39

They said to Him, "We are able." So Jesus said to them, "You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized;

Mark.10.39

"Oh yes," they said, "we are able!" And Jesus said, "You will indeed drink from my cup and be baptized with my baptism,

Mark.10.40

But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.

Mark.10.40

But as to awarding places of honor, that's not my business. There are other arrangements for that."

Mark.10.40

but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared."

Mark.10.40

but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared."

Mark.10.40

but I have no right to say who will sit on the thrones next to mine. God has prepared those places for the ones he has chosen."

Mark.10.41

And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and John.

Mark.10.41

When the other ten heard of this conversation, they lost their tempers with James and John.

Mark.10.41

When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.

Mark.10.41

And when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeased with James and John.

Mark.10.41

Mark.10.42

But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.

Mark.10.42

Jesus got them together to settle things down. "You've observed how godless rulers throw their weight around," he said, "and when people get a little power how quickly it goes to their heads.

Mark.10.42

Jesus called them together and said, "You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.

Mark.10.42

But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

Mark.10.42

So Jesus called them together and said, "You know that in this world kings are tyrants, and officials lord it over the people beneath them.

Mark.10.43

But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:

Mark.10.43

It's not going to be that way with you. Whoever wants to be great must become a servant.

Mark.10.43

Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

Mark.10.43

Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.

Mark.10.43
