Mark 1

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God.	1 Αρχη του ευαγγελιου του Ιησου Χριστου, Υιου του Θεου.
2 It is written in the prophet Isaiah: Look, I am going to send my messenger in front of you to prepare yourway before you.	2 Καθως ειναι γεγραμμενον εν τοις προφηταις? Ιδου, εγω αποστελλω τον αγγελον μου προ προσωπου σου, οστις θελει κατασκευασει την οδον σου εμπροσθεν σου?
3 A voice of one that cries in the desert: Prepare a way for the Lord, make his paths straight.	3 Φωνη βοωντος εν τη ερημω, ετοιμασατε την οδον του Κυριου, ευθειας καμετε τας τριβους αυτου.
4 John the Baptist was in the desert, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.	4 Ητο ο Ιωαννης βαπτιζων εν τη ερημω και κηρυττων βαπτισμα μετανοιας εις αφεσιν αμαρτιων.
5 All Judaea and all the people of Jerusalem made their way to him, and as they were baptised by him inthe river Jordan they confessed their sins.	5 Και εξηρχοντο προς αυτον ολος ο τοπος της Ιουδαιας και οι Ιεροσολυμιται, και εβαπτιζοντο παντες εν τω Ιορδανη ποταμω υπ' αυτου, εξομολογουμενοι τας αμαρτιας αυτων.
6 John wore a garment of camel-skin, and he lived on locusts and wild honey.	6 Ητο δε ο Ιωαννης ενδεδυμενος τριχας καμηλου και εχων ζωνην δερματινην περι την οσφυν αυτου, και τρωγων ακριδας και μελι αγριον.
7 In the course of his preaching he said, 'After me is coming someone who is more powerful than me, andI am not fit to kneel down and undo the strap of his sandals.	7 Και εκηρυττε, λεγων? Ερχεται ο ισχυροτερος μου οπισω μου, του οποιου δεν ειμαι αξιος σκυψας να λυσω το λωριον των υποδηματων αυτου.
8 I have baptised you with water, but he wil baptise you with the Holy Spirit.'	8 Εγω μεν σας εβαπτισα εν υδατι, αυτος δε θελει σας βαπτισει εν Πνευματι Αγιω.
9 It was at this time that Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptised in the Jordan by John.	9 Και εν εκειναις ταις ημεραις ηλθεν ο Ιησους απο Ναζαρετ της Γαλιλαιας και εβαπτισθη υπο Ιωαννου εις τον Ιορδανην.
10 And at once, as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit, likea dove, descending on him.	10 Και ευθυς ενω ανεβαινεν απο του υδατος, ειδε τους ουρανους σχιζομενους και το Πνευμα καταβαινον ως περιστεραν επ' αυτον?
11 And a voice came from heaven, 'You are my Son, the Beloved; my favour rests on you.'	11 και φωνη εγεινεν εκ των ουρανων? Συ εισαι ο Υιος μου ο αγαπητος, εις τον οποιον ευηρεστηθην.
12 And at once the Spirit drove him into the desert	12 Και ευθυς το Πνευμα εκβαλλει αυτον εις την ερημον?
13 and he remained there for forty days, and was put to the test by Satan. He was with the wild animals,and the angels looked after him.	13 και ητο εκει εν τη ερημω ημερας τεσσαρακοντα πειραζομενος υπο του Σατανα, και ητο μετα των θηριων, και οι αγγελοι υπηρετουν αυτον.
14 After John had been arrested, Jesus went into Galilee. There he proclaimed the gospel from Godsaying,	14 Αφου δε παρεδοθη ο Ιωαννης, ηλθεν ο Ιησους εις την Γαλιλαιαν κηρυττων το ευαγγελιον της βασιλειας του Θεου
15 'The time is fulfil ed, and the kingdom of God is close at hand. Repent, and believe the gospel.'	15 και λεγων οτι επληρωθη ο καιρος και επλησιασεν η βασιλεια του Θεου? μετανοειτε και πιστευετε εις το ευαγγελιον.
16 As he was walking along by the Lake of Galilee he saw Simon and Simon's brother Andrew casting anet in the lake -- for they were fishermen.	16 Περιπατων δε παρα την θαλασσαν της Γαλιλαιας, ειδε τον Σιμωνα και Ανδρεαν τον αδελφον αυτου, ριπτοντας δικτυον εις την θαλασσαν? διοτι ησαν αλιεις?
17 And Jesus said to them, 'Come after me and I will make you into fishers of people.'	17 και ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Ελθετε οπισω μου, και θελω σας καμει να γεινητε αλιεις ανθρωπων.
18 And at once they left their nets and fol owed him.	18 Και ευθυς αφησαντες τα δικτυα αυτων, ηκολουθησαν αυτον.
19 Going on a little further, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John; they too were in theirboat, mending the nets.	19 Και προχωρησας εκειθεν ολιγον, ειδεν Ιακωβον τον του Ζεβεδαιου και Ιωαννην τον αδελφον αυτου, και αυτους εν τω πλοιω επισκευαζοντας τα δικτυα,
20 At once he called them and, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the men he employed, theywent after him.	20 και ευθυς εκαλεσεν αυτους. Και αφησαντες τον πατερα αυτων Ζεβεδαιον εν τω πλοιω μετα των μισθωτων, υπηγον οπισω αυτου.
21 They went as far as Capernaum, and at once on the Sabbath he went into the synagogue and beganto teach.	21 Και εισερχονται εις Καπερναουμ? και ευθυς εν τω σαββατω εισελθων ο Ιησους εις την συναγωγην εδιδασκε.
22 And his teaching made a deep impression on them because, unlike the scribes, he taught them withauthority.	22 Και εξεπληττοντο δια την διδαχην αυτου? διοτι εδιδασκεν αυτους ως εχων εξουσιαν, και ουχι ως οι γραμματεις.
23 And at once in their synagogue there was a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,	23 Και ητο εν τη συναγωγη αυτων ανθρωπος εχων πνευμα ακαθαρτον, και ανεκραξε,
24 'What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are:the Holy One of God.'	24 λεγων? Φευ, τι ειναι μεταξυ ημων και σου, Ιησου Ναζαρηνε; ηλθες να μας απολεσης; σε γνωριζω τις εισαι, ο Αγιος του Θεου.
25 But Jesus rebuked it saying, 'Be quiet! Come out of him!'	25 Και επετιμησεν αυτο ο Ιησους, λεγων? Σιωπα και εξελθε εξ αυτου.
26 And the unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions and with a loud cry went out of him.	26 Και το πνευμα το ακαθαρτον, αφου εσπαραξεν αυτον και εκραξε μετα φωνης μεγαλης, εξηλθεν εξ αυτου.
27 The people were so astonished that they started asking one another what it al meant, saying, 'Here isa teaching that is new, and with authority behind it: he gives orders even to unclean spirits and they obey him.'	27 Και παντες εξεπλαγησαν, ωστε συνεζητουν προς αλληλους, λεγοντες? Τι ειναι τουτο; τις αυτη η νεα διδαχη, διοτι μετα εξουσιας προσταζει και τα ακαθαρτα πνευματα, και υπακουουσιν εις αυτον;
28 And his reputation at once spread everywhere, through all the surrounding Galilean countryside.	28 Εξηλθε δε η φημη αυτου ευθυς εις ολην την περιχωρον της Γαλιλαιας.
29 And at once on leaving the synagogue, he went with James and John straight to the house of Simonand Andrew.	29 Και ευθυς εξελθοντες εκ της συναγωγης, ηλθον εις την οικιαν Σιμωνος και Ανδρεου μετα του Ιακωβου και Ιωαννου.
30 Now Simon's mother-in-law was in bed and feverish, and at once they told him about her.	30 Η δε πενθερα του Σιμωνος ητο κατακοιτος πασχουσα πυρετον. Και ευθυς ελαλησαν προς αυτον περι αυτης.
31 He went in to her, took her by the hand and helped her up. And the fever left her and she began toserve them.	31 Και πλησιασας ηγειρεν αυτην πιασας την χειρα αυτης, και αφηκεν αυτην ο πυρετος ευθυς, και υπηρετει αυτους.
32 That evening, after sunset, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were possessed bydevils.	32 Αφου δε εγεινεν εσπερα, οτε εδυσεν ο ηλιος, εφεραν προς αυτον παντας τους πασχοντας και τους δαιμονιζομενους?
33 The whole town came crowding round the door,	33 και η πολις ολη ητο συνηγμενη εμπροσθεν της θυρας?
34 and he cured many who were sick with diseases of one kind or another; he also drove out manydevils, but he would not allow them to speak, because they knew who he was.	34 και εθεραπευσε πολλους πασχοντας διαφορους αρρωστιας, και δαιμονια πολλα εξεβαλε, και δεν αφινε τα δαιμονια να λαλωσιν, επειδη εγνωριζον αυτον.
35 In the morning, long before dawn, he got up and left the house and went off to a lonely place andprayed there.	35 Και το πρωι ενω ητο ορθρος βαθυς, σηκωθεις εξηλθε? και υπηγεν εις ερημον τοπον και εκει προσηυχετο.
36 Simon and his companions set out in search of him,	36 Και εδραμον κατοπιν αυτου ο Σιμων και οι μετ' αυτου,
37 and when they found him they said, 'Everybody is looking for you.'	37 και ευροντες αυτον λεγουσι προς αυτον οτι παντες σε ζητουσι.
38 He answered, 'Let us go elsewhere, to the neighbouring country towns, so that I can proclaim themessage there too, because that is why I came.'	38 Και λεγει προς αυτους? Ας υπαγωμεν εις τας πλησιον κωμοπολεις, δια να κηρυξω και εκει? επειδη δια τουτο εξηλθον.
39 And he went all through Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out devils.	39 Και εκηρυττεν εν ταις συναγωγαις αυτων εις ολην την Γαλιλαιαν και εξεβαλλε τα δαιμονια.
40 A man suffering from a virulent skin-disease came to him and pleaded on his knees saying, 'If you arewil ing, you can cleanse me.'	40 Και ερχεται προς αυτον λεπρος παρακαλων αυτον και γονυπετων εμπροσθεν αυτου και λεγων προς αυτον οτι, εαν θελης, δυνασαι να με καθαρισης.
41 Feeling sorry for him, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him and said to him, 'I am willing. Becleansed.'	41 Ο δε Ιησους σπλαγχνισθεις, εξετεινε την χειρα και ηγγισεν αυτον και λεγει προς αυτον? Θελω, καθαρισθητι.
42 And at once the skin-disease left him and he was cleansed.	42 Και ως ειπε τουτο, ευθυς εφυγεν απ' αυτου η λεπρα, και εκαθαρισθη.
43 And at once Jesus sternly sent him away and said to him,	43 Και προσταξας αυτον εντονως, ευθυς απεπεμψεν αυτον
44 'Mind you tel no one anything, but go and show yourself to the priest, and make the offering for yourcleansing prescribed by Moses as evidence to them.'	44 και λεγει προς αυτον? Προσεχε μη ειπης προς μηδενα μηδεν, αλλ' υπαγε, δειξον σεαυτον εις τον ιερεα και προσφερε περι του καθαρισμου σου οσα προσεταξεν ο Μωυσης δια μαρτυριαν εις αυτους.
45 The man went away, but then started freely proclaiming and tel ing the story everywhere, so thatJesus could no longer go openly into any town, but stayed outside in deserted places. Even so, people from alaround kept coming to him.	45 Αλλ' εκεινος εξελθων ηρχισε να κηρυττη πολλα και να διαφημιζη τον λογον, ωστε πλεον δεν ηδυνατο αυτος να εισελθη φανερα εις πολιν, αλλ' ητο εξω εν ερημοις τοποις? και ηρχοντο προς αυτον πανταχοθεν.
