Marcos 6
Biblia del Jubileo
6 ¶ Y salió de allí, y vino a su tierra, y le siguieron sus discípulos.
2 Llegado el sábado, comenzó a enseñar en la sinagoga; y muchos, oyéndole, estaban atónitos, diciendo: ¿De dónde tiene éste estas cosas? ¿Y qué sabiduría es ésta que le es dada, y tales maravillas que por sus manos son hechas?
3 ¿No es éste el carpintero, hijo de María, hermano de Jacobo, y de José, y de Judas, y de Simón? ¿No están también aquí con nosotros, sus hermanas? Y se escandalizaban de él.
4 Pero Jesús les decía: No hay profeta deshonrado sino en su tierra, y entre sus parientes, y en su casa.
5 Y no pudo hacer allí alguna maravilla; solamente sanó unos pocos enfermos, poniendo sobre ellos las manos.
6 Y estaba maravillado de la incredulidad de ellos. Y rodeaba las aldeas de alrededor, enseñando.
7 ¶ Y llamó a los doce, y comenzó a enviarlos de dos en dos; y les dio potestad sobre los espíritus inmundos.
8 Y les mandó que no llevaran nada para el camino, sino solamente báculo; ni alforja, ni pan, ni dinero en la bolsa;
9 mas que calzaran sandalias, y no vistieran dos túnicas.
10 Y les decía: Dondequiera que entréis en una casa, posad en ella hasta que salgáis de allí.
11 Y todos aquellos que no os recibieren ni os oyeren, saliendo de allí, sacudid el polvo que está debajo de vuestros pies, en testimonio a ellos. De cierto os digo que será más tolerable para los de Sodoma y Gomorra en el día del juicio, que para aquella ciudad.
12 Y saliendo, predicaban que los hombres se arrepintieran.
13 Y echaban fuera muchos demonios, y ungían con aceite a muchos enfermos, y sanaban.
14 ¶ Y oyó el rey Herodes la fama de Jesús, porque su nombre era hecho notorio; y dijo: Juan el que bautizaba, ha resucitado de los muertos, y por tanto, virtudes obran en él.
15 Otros decían: Elías es. Y otros decían: Profeta es, o alguno de los profetas.
16 Y oyéndolo Herodes, dijo: Este es Juan el que yo degollé; él ha resucitado de los muertos.
17 Porque el mismo Herodes había enviado, y prendido a Juan, y le había aprisionado en la cárcel a causa de Herodías, mujer de Felipe su hermano; porque la había tomado por mujer.
18 Porque Juan decía a Herodes: No te es lícito tener la mujer de tu hermano.
19 Mas Herodías le acechaba, y deseaba matarle, y no podía;
20 porque Herodes temía a Juan, conociéndolo varón justo y santo; y le tenía respeto; y escuchándole, hacía muchas cosas; y le oía de buena gana.
21 Y venido un día oportuno, en que Herodes, en la fiesta de su nacimiento, daba una cena a sus príncipes y tribunos, y a los principales de Galilea;
22 y entrando la hija de Herodías, y danzando, y agradando a Herodes y a los que estaban con él a la mesa, el rey dijo a la muchacha: Pídeme lo que quisieres, que yo te lo daré.
23 Y le juró: Todo lo que me pidieres te daré, hasta la mitad de mi reino.
24 Y saliendo ella, dijo a su madre: ¿Qué pediré? Y ella dijo: La cabeza de Juan el Bautista.
25 Entonces ella entró prestamente al rey, y pidió, diciendo: Quiero que ahora mismo me des en un plato la cabeza de Juan Bautista.
26 Y el rey se entristeció mucho; mas a causa del juramento, y de los que estaban con él a la mesa, no quiso desecharla.
27 Y luego el rey, enviando uno de la guardia, mandó que fuera traída su cabeza;
28 el cual fue, y le degolló en la cárcel, y trajo su cabeza en un plato, y la dio a la muchacha, y la muchacha la dio a su madre.
29 Y oyéndolo sus discípulos, vinieron y tomaron su cuerpo, y le pusieron en un sepulcro.
30 ¶ Y los apóstoles se juntaron a Jesús, y le contaron todo lo que habían hecho, y lo que habían enseñado.
31 Y él les dijo: Venid vosotros aparte al lugar desierto, y reposad un poco. Porque había muchos que iban y venían, que aun no tenían lugar de comer.
32 Y se fueron en un barco al lugar desierto aparte.
33 Y los vieron ir muchos, y le conocieron; y concurrieron allá muchos a pie de las ciudades, y llegaron antes que ellos, y se juntaron a él.
34 Y saliendo Jesús vio gran multitud, y tuvo misericordia de ellos, porque eran como ovejas sin pastor; y les comenzó a enseñar muchas cosas.
35 Cuando ya era el día muy entrado, sus discípulos llegaron a él, diciendo: El lugar es desierto, y el día ya muy entrado;
36 envíalos para que vayan a los cortijos y aldeas de alrededor, y compren para sí pan; porque no tienen qué comer.
37 Respondiendo él, les dijo: Dadles de comer vosotros. Y le dijeron: ¿Qué vayamos y compremos pan por doscientos denarios, y les demos de comer?
38 El les dice: ¿Cuántos panes tenéis? Id, y vedlo. Y sabiéndolo, dijeron: Cinco, y dos peces.
39 Y les mandó que hicieran recostar a todos por partidas sobre la hierba verde.
40 Y se recostaron por partidas, de ciento en ciento, y de cincuenta en cincuenta.
41 Y tomados los cinco panes y los dos peces, mirando al cielo, bendijo, y partió los panes, y dio a sus discípulos para que los pusieran delante; y repartió a todos los dos peces.
42 Y comieron todos, y se saciaron.
43 Y alzaron de los pedazos doce cestas llenas, y de los peces.
44 Y los que comieron eran cinco mil hombres.
45 ¶ Y luego apuró a sus discípulos a subir en el barco, e ir delante de él a Betsaida en la otra ribera, entre tanto que él despedía la multitud.
46 Y después que los hubo despedido, se fue al monte a orar.
47 Cuando llegó la noche, el barco estaba en medio del mar, y él solo en tierra.
48 Y los vio fatigados remando, porque el viento les era contrario; y cerca de la cuarta vigilia de la noche, vino a ellos andando sobre el mar, y quería precederlos.
49 Y viéndole ellos, que andaba sobre el mar, pensaron que era fantasma, y dieron voces;
50 porque todos le veían, y se turbaron. Mas luego habló con ellos, y les dijo: Alentaos; YO SOY, no temáis.
51 Y subió a ellos en el barco, y el viento reposó; y ellos en gran manera estaban fuera de sí, y se maravillaban;
52 porque aún no habían cobrado entendimiento en los panes, porque sus corazones estaban ciegos.
53 Y cuando llegaron al otro lado, vinieron a tierra de Genesaret, y tomaron puerto.
54 Y saliendo ellos del barco, luego le conocieron.
55 Y recorriendo toda la tierra de alrededor, comenzaron a traer de todas partes enfermos en lechos, a donde oían que estaba.
56 Y dondequiera que entraba, en aldeas, o ciudades, o heredades, ponían en las calles a los que estaban enfermos, y le rogaban que les dejara tocar siquiera el borde de su vestido; y todos los que le tocaban eran salvos.
Mark 6
English Standard Version
Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
6 (A)He went away from there and came to (B)his hometown, and his disciples followed him. 2 And (C)on the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and (D)many who heard him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things? What is the wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done by his hands? 3 (E)Is not this (F)the carpenter,[a] the son of Mary and (G)brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” And (H)they took offense at him. 4 And Jesus said to them, (I)“A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household.” 5 And (J)he could do no mighty work there, except that (K)he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. 6 And (L)he marveled because of their unbelief.
(M)And he went about among the villages teaching.
Jesus Sends Out the Twelve Apostles
7 (N)And he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. 8 He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts— 9 but to (O)wear sandals and not put on two tunics.[b] 10 And he said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you depart from there. 11 And if any place will not receive you and they will not listen to you, when you leave, (P)shake off the dust that is on your feet (Q)as a testimony against them.” 12 (R)So they went out and (S)proclaimed (T)that people should repent. 13 (U)And they cast out many demons and (V)anointed with oil many who were sick and healed them.
The Death of John the Baptist
14 (W)King Herod heard of it, for Jesus'[c] name had become known. Some[d] said, (X)“John the Baptist[e] has been raised from the dead. That is why these miraculous powers are at work in him.” 15 (Y)But others said, “He is Elijah.” And others said, “He is (Z)a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.” 16 But when Herod heard of it, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has been raised.” 17 (AA)For it was Herod who had sent and seized John and (AB)bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, because he had married her. 18 (AC)For John had been saying to Herod, (AD)“It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.” 19 And Herodias had a grudge against him and wanted to put him to death. But she could not, 20 for Herod (AE)feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he kept him safe. When he heard him, he was greatly perplexed, and yet he (AF)heard him gladly.
21 But an opportunity came when Herod (AG)on his birthday (AH)gave a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee. 22 For when Herodias's daughter came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests. And the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.” 23 And he vowed to her, “Whatever you ask me, I will give you, (AI)up to half of my kingdom.” 24 And she went out and said to her mother, “For what should I ask?” And she said, “The head of John the Baptist.” 25 And she came in immediately with haste to the king and asked, saying, “I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.” 26 And the king was exceedingly sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he did not want to break his word to her. 27 And immediately the king sent an executioner with orders to bring John's[f] head. He went and beheaded him in the prison 28 and brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother. 29 When his (AJ)disciples heard of it, they came and took his body and laid it in a tomb.
Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand
30 (AK)(AL)The apostles returned to Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught. 31 And he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and (AM)they had no leisure even to eat. 32 (AN)And they went away in (AO)the boat to a desolate place by themselves. 33 Now many saw them going and (AP)recognized them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. 34 When he went ashore he (AQ)saw a great crowd, and (AR)he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. 35 And when it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is now late. 36 (AS)Send them away to go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.” 37 But he answered them, (AT)“You give them something to eat.” And (AU)they said to him, (AV)“Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii[g] worth of bread and give it to them to eat?” 38 And he said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” And when they had found out, they said, (AW)“Five, and two fish.” 39 Then he commanded them all to sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in groups, by hundreds and by fifties. 41 And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he (AX)looked up to heaven and (AY)said a blessing and broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the people. And he divided the two fish among them all. 42 And they all ate and were satisfied. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and of the fish. 44 And those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.
Jesus Walks on the Water
45 (AZ)Immediately he (BA)made his disciples get into (BB)the boat and go before him to the other side, (BC)to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd. 46 And after he had taken leave of them, (BD)he went up on the mountain to pray. 47 And when (BE)evening came, the boat was out on the sea, and he was alone on the land. 48 And he saw that they were making headway painfully, for the wind was against them. And about (BF)the fourth watch of the night[h] he came to them, walking on the sea. (BG)He meant to pass by them, 49 but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost, and cried out, 50 for they all saw him and (BH)were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, (BI)“Take heart; it is I. (BJ)Do not be afraid.” 51 And he got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. And they were utterly astounded, 52 for (BK)they did not understand about the loaves, but their hearts (BL)were hardened.
Jesus Heals the Sick in Gennesaret
53 (BM)When they had crossed over, they came to land at (BN)Gennesaret and moored to the shore. 54 And when they got out of the boat, the people immediately (BO)recognized him 55 and ran about the whole region and began to bring (BP)the sick people (BQ)on their beds to wherever they heard he was. 56 And wherever he came, in villages, cities, or countryside, (BR)they laid the sick in the marketplaces and implored him that they might touch even (BS)the fringe of his garment. And (BT)as many as touched it were made well.
