Mark 10:26-52 ▼

26 And they were struck with amazement, excessively, saying to themselves, And who can be saved.

27 And Jesus having beheld them says, With men impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.

28 And Peter began to say to him, Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee.

29 And Jesus having answered, said, Truly I say to you, There is none who has left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for sake of me, and the good news,

30 Except he should receive a hundred-fold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mother, and children, and fields, with expulsions; and in the time coming eternal life.

31 And many first shall be last; and the last first.

32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was leading before them; and they were amazed; and following, they were afraid. And again taking the twelve, he began to say to them the things about to happen to him,

33 For, behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and scribes; and they shall condemn him to death: and shall deliver him to the nations:

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 be raised up.

35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying, Teacher, we wish that whatever we should ask, thou wouldst do for us.

36 And he said to them, What wish you me to do for you?

37 And they said to him, Give us that we might sit, one from thy right hand, and one front thy left, in thy glory.

38 And Jesus said to them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink the cup which I drink? and the immersion with which I am immersed to be immersed.

39 And they said to him, We can. And Jesus said to them, Truly the cup which I drink shall ye drink; and the immersion with which I am immersed, shall ye be immersed.

40 And to sit from my right hand, and from my left is not mine to give; but for whom it has been prepared.

41 And the ten having heard, began to feel pain about James and John.

42 And Jesus having called them, says to them, Ye know that they thinking to be first of the nations rule over them; and their great ones exercise authority over them.

43 And it shall not be so among you: but whoever should wish to be great among you, shall be your attendant:

44 And whoever of you should wish to be the first, he shall be the servant of all.

45 For also the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his soul a ransom for many.

46 And they come into Jericho: and he going out from Jericho, and his disciples, and a sufficient crowd, Bartimeus the blind, son of Timaeus, sat by the way asking alms.

47 And having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarite, he began to cry, and to say, Son of David, O Jesus, compassionate me.

48 And many were rebuking him, that he should be silent: and he cried much more, Son of David, compassionate me.

49 And Jesus having stood, spake for him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Take courage, arise; he calls thee.

50 And he, having cast away his garment, having risen, came to Jesus.

51 And Jesus having answered, said to him, What wishest thou I should do to thee? And the blind said to him, Rabboni, that I might see again.

52 And Jesus said to him, Retire; thy faith has saved thee. And quickly he looked up, and followed Jesus in the way.
