Mark 1:23-45 ▼

23 And there was in their Synagogue a man in whome was an vncleane spirite, and hee cried out,

24 Saying, Ah, what haue we to do with thee, O Iesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy vs? I knowe thee what thou art, euen that holy one of God.

25 And Iesus rebuked him, saying, Holde thy peace, and come out of him.

26 And the vncleane spirit tare him, & cried with a loude voyce, and came out of him.

27 And they were all amased, so that they demaunded one of another, saying, What thing is this? what newe doctrine is this? for he commandeth euen the foule spirites with authoritie, and they obey him.

28 And immediatly his fame spred abroade throughout all the region bordering on Galile.

29 And assoone as they were come out of the Synagogue, they entred into the house of Symon and Andrew, with Iames and Iohn.

30 And Symons wiues mother lay sicke of a feuer, and anon they told him of her.

31 And he came and tooke her by the hand, and lifted her vp, and the feuer forsooke her by and by, and shee ministred vnto them.

32 And whe euen was come, at what time the sunne setteth, they brought to him all that were diseased, & them that were possessed with deuils.

33 And the whole citie was gathered together at the doore.

34 And he healed many that were sicke of diuers diseases: and he cast out many deuils, & suffred not the deuils to say that they knewe him.

35 And in the morning very early before day, Iesus arose & went out into a solitarie place, and there praied.

36 And Simon, and they that were with him, followed carefully after him.

37 And when they had found him, they sayde vnto him, All men seeke for thee.

38 Then he said vnto them, Let vs go into the next townes, that I may preach there also: for I came out for that purpose.

39 And hee preached in their Synagogues, throughout all Galile, and cast the deuils out.

40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, & kneeled downe vnto him, & said to him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me cleane.

41 And Iesus had compassion, and put foorth his hand, and touched him, and said to him, I wil: be thou cleane.

42 And assone as he had spoken, immediatly ye leprosie departed fro him, & he was made cleane.

43 And after he had giue him a streight commandement, he sent him away forthwith,

44 And sayde vnto him, See thou say nothing to any man, but get thee hence, and shewe thy selfe to the Priest, and offer for thy clensing those things, which Moses commaunded, for a testimoniall vnto them.

45 But when he was departed, hee began to tel many things, and to publish the matter: so that Iesus could no more openly enter into the citie, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from euery quarter.
