Mark 8

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 In those days, again, when there was a great crowd, and they did not have anything to eat, calling together his disciples, he said to them:	1 In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
2 “I have compassion for the multitude, because, behold, they have persevered with me now for three days, and they do not have anything to eat.	2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:
3 And if I were to send them away fasting to their home, they might faint on the way.” For some of them came from far away.	3 And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.
4 And his disciples answered him, “From where would anyone be able to obtain enough bread for them in the wilderness?”	4 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?
5 And he questioned them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven.”	5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
6 And he instructed the crowd to sit down to eat on the ground. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke and gave it to his disciples in order to place before them. And they placed these before the crowd.	6 And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people.
7 And they had a few small fish. And he blessed them, and he ordered them to be placed before them.	7 And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
8 And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up what had been leftover from the fragments: seven baskets.	8 So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.
9 And those who ate were about four thousand. And he dismissed them.	9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
10 And promptly climbing into a boat with his disciples, he went into the parts of Dalmanutha.	10 And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
11 And the Pharisees went out and began to contend with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, testing him.	11 And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
12 And sighing deeply in spirit, he said: “Why does this generation seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, if only a sign will be given to this generation!”	12 And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.
13 And sending them away, he climbed into the boat again, and he went away across the sea.	13 And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.
14 And they forgot to take bread. And they did not have any with them in the boat, except one loaf.	14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.
15 And he instructed them, saying: “Consider and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herod.”	15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
16 And they discussed this with one another, saying, “For we have no bread.”	16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.
17 And Jesus, knowing this, said to them: “Why do you consider that it is because you have no bread? Do you not yet know or understand? Do you still have blindness in your heart?	17 And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?
18 Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear? Do you not remember,	18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
19 when I broke the five loves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments you took up?” They said to him, “Twelve.”	19 When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
20 “And when the seven loaves were among the four thousand, how many baskets of fragments did you take up?” And they said to him, “Seven.”	20 And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
21 And he said to them, “How is it that you do not yet understand?”	21 And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
22 And they went to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to him. And they petitioned him, so that he would touch him.	22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.
23 And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him beyond the village. And putting spit on his eyes, laying his hands on him, he asked him if he could see anything.	23 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
24 And looking up, he said, “I see men but they are like walking trees.”	24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
25 Next he placed his hands again over his eyes, and he began to see. And he was restored, so that he could see everything clearly.	25 After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
26 And he sent him to his house, saying, “Go into your own house, and if you enter into the town, tell no one.”	26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
27 And Jesus departed with his disciples into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way, he questioned his disciples, saying to them, “Who do men say that I am?”	27 And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?
28 And they answered him by saying: “John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others perhaps one of the prophets.”	28 And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.
29 Then he said to them, “Yet truly, who do you say that I am?” Peter responded by saying to him, “You are the Christ.”	29 And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.
30 And he admonished them, not to tell anyone about him.	30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
31 And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and by the high priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.	31 And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 And he spoke the word openly. And Peter, taking him aside, began to correct him.	32 And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
33 And turning away and looking at his disciples, he admonished Peter, saying, “Get behind me, Satan, for you do not prefer the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.”	33 But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
34 And calling together the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone chooses to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.	34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 For whoever will have chosen to save his life, will lose it. But whoever will have lost his life, for my sake and for the Gospel, shall save it.	35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
36 For how does it benefit a man, if he gains the whole world, and yet causes harm to his soul?	36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
37 Or, what will a man give in exchange for his soul?	37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 For whoever has been ashamed of me and of my words, among this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of man also will be ashamed of him, when he will arrive in the glory of his Father, with the holy Angels.”	38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
39 And he said to them, “Amen I say to you, that there are some among those standing here who shall not taste death until they see the kingdom of God arriving in power.”
