Marcos 1

João Batista

1 Princípio do evangelho de Jesus Cristo.

2 *Mc 1.2-8;Mt 3.1-11;Lc 3.2-16Conforme está escrito no profeta Isaías:

*Ml 3.1;Mt 11.10;Lc 7.27Eis aí envio eu ante a tua face o meu anjo,

que há de preparar o teu caminho;

3 *Is 40.3;Mt 3.3;Lc 3.4;Jo 1.23Voz do que clama no deserto:

Preparai o caminho do Senhor,

endireitai as suas veredas;

4 apareceu João Batista no deserto, *At 13.24pregando o batismo de arrependimento para *Lc 1.77remissão de pecados. 5 Saíam a ter com ele toda a terra da Judeia e todos os moradores de Jerusalém; e eram por ele batizados no rio Jordão, confessando os seus pecados. 6 João usava uma veste de pelo de camelo e uma correia em volta da cintura; e comia gafanhotos e mel silvestre. 7 Ele pregava: Depois de mim vem, aquele que é mais poderoso do que eu, diante do qual não sou digno de abaixar-me para lhe desatar a correia das sandálias. 8 Eu vos batizei com água, mas ele vos batizará com o Espírito Santo.

O batismo de Jesus

9 *Mc 1.9-11;Mt 3.13-17;Lc 3.21-22Naqueles dias, Jesus *cp.Mt 2.23;Lc 2.51veio de Nazaré da Galileia e por João foi batizado no Jordão 10 Logo ao sair da água, viu os céus abrirem-se e o Espírito como pomba descer sobre ele. 11 E ouviu-se uma voz dos céus: *Lc 3.22;Mt 3.17Tu és o meu Filho dileto, em ti me agrado.

A tentação de Jesus

12 *Mc 1.12-13;Mt 4.1-11;Lc 4.1-13Imediatamente, o Espírito o impeliu para o deserto. 13 Ali ficou quarenta dias tentado por *Mt 4.10Satanás; estava com as feras, e os anjos o serviam.

Jesus volta para a Galileia e principia a sua missão

14 *Mt 4.12Depois de João ser preso, foi Jesus para a Galileia, *Mt 4.23pregando o evangelho de Deus 15 e dizendo: *Gl 4.4;Ef 1.10;1Tm 2.6;Tt 1.3O tempo está cumprido, e o reino de Deus está próximo; *cp.At 20.21arrependei-vos e crede no evangelho.

Jesus chama os primeiros quatro discípulos

16 *Mc 1.16-20;Mt 4.18-22; cp.Lc 5.2-11;Jo 1.40-42Caminhando ao lado do mar da Galileia, viu a Simão e a André, irmão de Simão, lançarem a rede ao mar, porque eram pescadores. 17 Disse-lhes Jesus: Segui-me, e eu farei que vos torneis pescadores de homens. 18 No mesmo instante, deixaram as redes e o seguiram. 19 Passando um pouco adiante, viu a Tiago e a João, filhos de Zebedeu, que estavam na sua barca consertando as redes. 20 Logo os chamou; e eles, tendo deixado na barca a Zebedeu, seu pai, com os empregados, foram após Jesus.

A cura dum endemoninhado em Cafarnaum

21 *Mc 1.21-28;Lc 4.31-37Entraram em Cafarnaum; e, no sábado seguinte, *Mt 4.23;Mc 1.39;Mc 10.1indo ele à sinagoga, pôs-se a ensinar. 22 *Mt 7.28Admiravam-se do seu ensino, porque ele os ensinava como quem tinha autoridade e não como os escribas. 23 Estava na sinagoga um homem possesso de um espírito imundo, 24 que gritou: *Mt 8.29Que temos nós contigo, Jesus *Mc 10.47;14.67;16.6;Lc 4.34;24.19; cp.Mt 2.23;At 24.5Nazareno? Vieste a perder-nos. Bem sei quem és; és *Lc 4.34;Jo 6.69; cp.Lc 1.35;At 3.14o Santo de Deus! 25 Mas Jesus repreendeu-o, dizendo: Cala-te e sai desse homem. 26 O espírito imundo, agitando-o violentamente e brandando em alta voz, saiu dele. 27 Todos ficaram tão *Mc 10.24,32; cp.14.33;16.5-6admirados, que uns aos outros perguntavam: Que é isso? Uma nova doutrina com autoridade! Ele manda aos próprios espíritos imundos, e eles lhe obedecem! 28 Divulgou-se logo a sua fama por toda a circunvizinhança da Galileia.

A cura da sogra de Pedro

29 *Mc 1.29-31;Mt 8.14-15;Lc 4.38-39Em seguida, tendo saído *Mc 1.21,23da sinagoga, foram com Tiago e João à casa de Simão e André. 30 A sogra de Simão estava de cama, com febre; e logo lhe falaram a respeito dela. 31 Ele, aproximando-se da enferma e tomando-a pela mão, a levantou; a febre a deixou, e ela começou a servi-los.

Muitos outros curados

32 *Mc 1.32-34;Mt 8.16-17;Lc 4.40-41À *cp.Mt 8.16;Lc 4.40tarde, estando já o sol posto, traziam-lhe todos os doentes *Mt 4.24e endemoninhados; 33 e toda a *Mc 1.21cidade estava reunida à porta. 34 Ele *Mt 4.23curou muitos que se achavam doentes de diversas moléstias e expeliu muitos demônios, não permitindo que estes falassem, porque sabiam quem ele era.

Jesus retira-se para orar

35 *Mc 1.35-38;Lc 4.42-43Levantando-se antes da madrugada, saiu, e foi a um lugar deserto, e ali *Lc 5.16;Mt 14.23orava. 36 Simão e seus companheiros foram procurá-lo; 37 e, encontrando-o, disseram: Todos te buscam. 38 Disse-lhes Jesus: Vamos a outros lugares, às povoações vizinhas, a fim de que eu também aí pregue, porque para isso vim. 39 *Mt 4.23; cp.Mc 1.23;Mc 3.1Foi por toda a Galileia, pregando nas sinagogas e expelindo os demônios.

A cura dum leproso

40 *Mc 1.40-44;Mt 8.2-4;Lc 5.12-14Chegou-se a ele um leproso, fazendo-lhe a sua rogativa *Mc 10.17; cp.Mt 8.2;Lc 5.12e, ajoelhando-se, disse: Se quiseres, bem podes tornar-me limpo. 41 Jesus, compadecido dele, estendeu a mão e tocou-o, dizendo: Quero; fica limpo! 42 No mesmo instante, desapareceu-lhe a lepra, e ficou limpo. 43 Advertindo-lhe com energia, logo o despediu, 44 dizendo: *Mt 8.4Olha, não digas nada a ninguém, mas *Lv 13.49;14.2ss.; cp.Mt 8.4vai mostrar-te ao sacerdote e oferecer-lhe pela tua purificação o que Moisés ordenou, para lhes servir de testemunho. 45 Porém ele, saindo dali, começou a publicar o caso por toda parte e *Lc 5.15;Mt 28.15a divulgá-lo, de modo que Jesus já não podia entrar abertamente numa cidade, mas ficava fora em lugares despovoados; *cp.Mc 2.2,13;3.7;Lc 5.17;Jo 6.2e de todos os lados iam ter com ele.

1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

2 As it is written in the prophets,

"Behold,*1:2 "Behold", from "ἰδοὺ", means look at, take notice, observe, see, or gaze at. It is often used as an interjection. I send my messenger before your face,

who will prepare your way before you:✝1:2 Malachi 3:1

3 the voice of one crying in the wilderness,

‘Make ready the way of the Lord!

Make his paths straight!’"✝1:3 Isaiah 40:3

4 John came baptizing*1:4 or, immersing in the wilderness and preaching the baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins. 5 All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins. 6 John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey. 7 He preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen. 8 I baptized you in*1:8 The Greek word (en) translated here as "in" could also be translated as "with" in some contexts. water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit."

9 In those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. 11 A voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

12 Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness. 13 He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.

14 Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom, 15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News."

16 Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 17 Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men."

18 Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.

19 Going on a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets. 20 Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.

21 They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught. 22 They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes. 23 Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out, 24 saying, "Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!"

25 Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"

26 The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him. 27 They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What can this new doctrine be? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!" 28 The report of him went out immediately into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.

29 Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30 Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her. 31 He came and took her by the hand and raised her up. The fever left her immediately,*1:31 NU omits "immediately". and she served them.

32 At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons. 33 All the city was gathered together at the door. 34 He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.

35 Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there. 36 Simon and those who were with him searched for him. 37 They found him and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."

38 He said to them, "Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason." 39 He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.

40 A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, "If you want to, you can make me clean."

41 Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I want to. Be made clean." 42 When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him and he was made clean. 43 He strictly warned him and immediately sent him out, 44 and said to him, "See that you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."

45 But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places. People came to him from everywhere.
