Mk Chapter 6 Verses 1-56

6:1
And
he
went away
from
there,
and
came
into
his
country;
and
his
disciples
went
with
him.
6:2
And
when
the
Sabbath
day
had
come,
he
was
teaching
in
the
Synagogue;
and
a
number
of
people
hearing
him
were
surprised,
saying,
From
where
did
this
man
get
these
things?
and,
What
is
the
wisdom
given
to
this
man,
and
what
are
these
works
of
power
done
by
his
hands?
6:3
Is
not
this
the
woodworker,
the
son
of
Mary,
and
brother
of
James
and
Joses
and
Judas
and
Simon?
and
are not
his
sisters
here
with
us?
And
they
were
bitter
against
him.
6:4
And
Jesus
said
to
them,
A
prophet
is
nowhere
without
honour,
but
in
his
country,
and
among
his
relations,
and
in
his
family.
6:5
And
he
was
unable
to
do
any
work
of
power
there,
but
only
to
put
his
hands
on
one
or
two
persons
who
were
ill,
and
make
them
well.
6:6
And
he
was
greatly
surprised
because
they
had
no
faith.
And
he
went
about
the
country
places
teaching.
6:7
And
he
gave
orders
to
the
twelve,
and
sent
them
out
two
by
two;
and
he
gave
them
authority
over
the
unclean
spirits;
6:8
And
he
said
that
they
were
to
take
nothing
for
their
journey,
but
a
stick
only;
no
bread,
no
bag,
no money
in
their
pockets;
6:9
They
were
to go
with
common
shoes
on
their
feet,
and
not
to
take
two
coats.
6:10
And
he
said
to
them,
Wherever
you
go into
a
house,
make
that
your
resting-place
till
you
go away.
6:11
And
whatever
place
will not
take
you
in
and
will not
give
ear
to
you,
when
you
go away,
put
off
the
dust
from
your
feet
as
a
witness
against
them.
6:12
And
they
went out,
preaching
the
need
for
a
change
of
heart
in
men.
6:13
And
they
sent
out
a
number
of
evil
spirits,
and
put
oil
on
a
great
number
who
were
ill,
and
made
them
well.
6:14
And
king Herod
had
news
of
him,
because
his
name
was
on
the
lips
of
all;
and
he
said,
John
the
Baptist
has
come back
from
the
dead,
and
for
this
reason
these
powers
are working
in
him.
6:15
But
others
said,
It
is
Elijah.
And
others
said,
It
is
a
prophet,
even
like
one
of
the
prophets.
6:16
But
Herod,
when
he
had
news
of
it,
said,
John,
whom
I
put
to
death,
has
come back
from
the
dead.
6:17
For
Herod
himself
had
sent
men
out
to
take
John
and
put
him
in
prison,
because
of
Herodias,
his
brother
Philip’s
wife,
whom
he
had
taken
for
himself.
6:18
For
John
said
to
Herod,
It
is
wrong
for
you
to
have
your
brother’s
wife.
6:19
And
Herodias
was
bitter
against
him,
desiring
to
put
him
to
death;
but
she
was not
able;
6:20
For
Herod
was
in
fear
of
John,
being
conscious
that
he
was
an
upright
and
holy
man,
and
kept
him
safe.
And
hearing
him,
he
was
much
troubled;
and
he
gave
ear
to
him
gladly.
6:21
And
the
chance
came
when
Herod
on
his
birthday
gave
a
feast
to
his
lords,
and
the
high
captains,
and
the
chief
men
of
Galilee;
6:22
And
when
the
daughter
of
Herodias
herself
came in
and
did
a
dance,
Herod
and
those
who
were
at
table
with
him
were
pleased
with
her;
and
the
king
said
to
the
girl,
Make
a
request
for
anything
and
I
will
give
it
you.
6:23
And
he
took
an
oath,
saying
to
her,
Whatever
is
your
desire
I
will
give
it
to
you,
even
half
of
my
kingdom.
6:24
And
she
went out
and
said
to
her
mother,
What
is
my
request
to
be?
And
she
said,
The
head
of
John
the
Baptist.
6:25
And
she
came in
quickly
to
the
king,
and
said,
My
desire
is
that
you
give
me
straight away
on
a
plate
the
head
of
John
the
Baptist.
6:26
And
the
king
was
very sad;
but
because
of
his
oaths,
and
those
who
were
with
him
at
table,
he
would not
say
‘No’
to
her.
6:27
And
straight away
the
king
sent
out
one
of
his
armed men,
and
gave
him
an
order
to
come back
with
the
head:
and
he
went
and
took off
John’s
head
in
prison,
6:28
And
came back
with
the
head
on
a
plate,
and
gave
it
to
the
girl;
and
the
girl
gave
it
to
her
mother.
6:29
And
when
his
disciples
had
news
of
it,
they
came
and
took
up
his
body,
and
put
it
in
its
last
resting-place.
6:30
And
the
twelve
came
together
to
Jesus;
and
they
gave
him
an
account
of
all
the
things
they
had
done,
and
all
they
had been
teaching.
6:31
And
he
said
to
them,
Come
away
by yourselves
to
a
quiet place,
and
take
a
rest
for
a
time.
Because
there
were
a
great
number
coming
and
going,
and
they
had
no time
even
for
food.
6:32
And
they
went away
in
the
boat
to
a
waste
place
by themselves.
6:33
And
the
people
saw
them
going,
and
a
number
of
them,
having
knowledge
who
they
were,
went
running
there
together
on
foot
from
all
the
towns,
and
got there
before
them.
6:34
And
he
got out,
and
saw
a
great
mass
of
people,
and
he
had
pity
on
them,
because
they
were
like
sheep
without
a
keeper:
and
he
gave
them
teaching
about
a
number
of
things.
6:35
And
at
the end
of
the
day,
his
disciples
came to
him
and
said,
This
place
is
waste
land,
and
it
is
late:
6:36
Send
them
away,
so
that
they
may
go into
the
country
and
small
towns
round
about,
and
get
some
food
for
themselves.
6:37
But
he
said
to
them
in
answer,
Give
them
food
yourselves.
And
they
said
to
him,
Are
we
to go
and
get
bread
for
two hundred
pence,
and
give
it
to
them?
6:38
And
he
said
to
them,
How much
bread
have
you?
go
and
see.
And
when
they
had seen,
they
said,
Five
cakes
of
bread
and
two
fishes.
6:39
And
he
made
them
all
be
seated
in
groups
on
the
green
grass.
6:40
And
they
were
placed
in
groups,
by
hundreds
and
by
fifties.
6:41
And
he
took
the
five
cakes
of
bread
and
the
two
fishes
and,
looking
up to
heaven,
he
said
words
of
blessing
over
them;
and
when
the
cakes
were
broken,
he
gave
them
to
the
disciples
to
put
before
the
people;
and
he
made
division
of
the
two
fishes
among
them
all.
6:42
And
they
all
took
of
the
food
and
had enough.
6:43
And
they
took
up
twelve
baskets
full
of
the
broken
bits
and
of
the
fishes.
6:44
And
those
who
took
of
the
bread
were
five
thousand
men.
6:45
And
straight away
he
made
his
disciples
get
into
the
boat,
and
go
before
him
to
the
other side
to
Beth-saida,
while
he
himself
sent
the
people
away.
6:46
And
after
he
had
sent
them
away,
he
went up
into
a
mountain
for
prayer.
6:47
And
by
evening,
the
boat
was
in
the
middle
of
the
sea,
and
he
by himself
on
the
land.
6:48
And
seeing
that
they
had
trouble
in
getting
their
boat
through
the
water,
because
the
wind
was
against
them,
about
the
fourth
watch
of
the
night
he
came to
them,
walking
on
the
sea;
and
he
would
have
gone past
them;
6:49
But
they,
when
they
saw
him
walking
on
the
sea,
took
him
for
a
spirit,
and
gave
a
loud
cry:
6:50
For
they
all
saw
him,
and
were
troubled.
But
straight away
he
said
to
them,
Take
heart,
it
is
I,
have
no
fear.
6:51
And
he
went to
them
into
the
boat,
and
the
wind
went down,
and
they
were
full
of
wonder
in
themselves;
6:52
For
it
was
not
clear
to
them
about
the
bread;
but
their
hearts
were
hard.
6:53
And
when
they
had
gone across,
they
came to
Gennesaret,
and
got
their
boat
to
land.
6:54
And
when
they
had
got out
of
the
boat,
the
people
quickly
had
news
of
him,
6:55
And
went
running
through
all
the
country
round
about,
and
took
on
their
beds
those
who
were
ill,
to
where
it
was
said
that
he
was.
6:56
And
wherever
he
went,
into
small
towns,
or
great
towns,
or
into
the
country,
they
took
those
who
were
ill
into
the
market-places,
requesting
him
that
they
might
put
their
hands
even
on
the
edge
of
his
robe:
and
all
those
who
did
so
were
made
well.
