Chapter 6 of Mark—King James Version (KJV)

  1. ¶ And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him.
  2. ¶ And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?
  3. ¶ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.
  4. ¶ But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
  5. ¶ And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
  6. ¶ And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
  7. ¶ And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;
  8. ¶ And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:
  9. ¶ But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
  10. ¶ And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place.
  11. ¶ And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
  12. ¶ And they went out, and preached that men should repent.
  13. ¶ And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.
  14. ¶ And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
  15. ¶ Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.
  16. ¶ But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.
  17. ¶ For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife: for he had married her.
  18. ¶ For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother’s wife.
  19. ¶ Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:
  20. ¶ For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.
  21. ¶ And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee;
  22. ¶ And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
  23. ¶ And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.
  24. ¶ And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.
  25. ¶ And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.
  26. ¶ And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath’s sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.
  27. ¶ And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
  28. ¶ And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother.
  29. ¶ And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
  30. ¶ And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
  31. ¶ And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
  32. ¶ And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.
  33. ¶ And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.
  34. ¶ And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
  35. ¶ And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:
  36. ¶ Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.
  37. ¶ He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?
  38. ¶ He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.
  39. ¶ And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass.
  40. ¶ And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.
  41. ¶ And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.
  42. ¶ And they did all eat, and were filled.
  43. ¶ And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.
  44. ¶ And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.
  45. ¶ And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.
  46. ¶ And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.
  47. ¶ And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land.
  48. ¶ And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them.
  49. ¶ But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:
  50. ¶ For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
  51. ¶ And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.
  52. ¶ For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.
  53. ¶ And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
  54. ¶ And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,
  55. ¶ And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.
  56. ¶ And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
