10:32. And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem: and Jesus went before them. And they were astonished and following were afraid. And taking again the twelve, he began to tell them the things that should befall him.
10:33. Saying: Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes and ancients. And they shall condemn him to death and shall deliver him to the Gentiles.
10:34. And they shall mock him and spit on him and scourge him and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
10:35. And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying: Master, we desire that whatsoever we shall ask, thou wouldst do it for us.
10:36. But he said to them: What would you that I should do for you?
10:37. And they said: Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy right hand and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
10:38. And Jesus said to them: You know not what you ask. Can you drink of the chalice that I drink of or be baptized with the baptism wherewith I am baptized?
10:39. But they said to him: We can. And Jesus saith to them: You shall indeed drink of the chalice that I drink of; and with the baptism wherewith I am baptized you shall be baptized.
10:40. But to sit on my right hand or on my left is not mine to give to you, but to them for whom it is prepared.
10:41. And the ten, hearing it, began to be much displeased at James and John.
10:42. But Jesus calling them, saith to them: You know that they who seem to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them: and their princes have power over them.
10:43. But it is not so among you: but whosoever will be greater shall be your minister.
10:44. And whosoever will be first among you shall be the servant of all.
10:45. For the Son of man also is not come to be ministered unto: but to minister and to give his life a redemption for many.
10:46. And they came to Jericho. And as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a very great mult.i.tude, Bartimeus the blind man, the son of Timeus, sat by the way side begging.
10:47. Who when he had heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, began to cry out and to say: Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.
10:48. And many rebuked him, that he might hold his peace; but he cried a great deal the more: Son of David, have mercy on me.
10:49. And Jesus, standing still, commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him: Be of better comfort. Arise, he calleth thee.
10:50. Who casting off his garment leaped up and came to him.
10:51. And Jesus answering, said to him: What wilt thou that I should do to thee? And the blind man said to him: Rabboni. That I may see.
10:52. And Jesus saith to him: Go thy way. Thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he saw and followed him in the way.
Mark Chapter 11
Christ enters into Jerusalem upon an a.s.s. He curses the barren fig tree and drives the buyers and sellers out of the temple.
11:1. And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,
11:2. And saith to them: Go into the village that is over against you, and immediately at your coming in thither, you shall find a colt tied, upon which no man yet hath sat. Loose him and bring him.
11:3. And if any man shall say to you: What are you doing? Say ye that the Lord hath need of him. And immediately he will let him come hither.
11:4. And going their way, they found the colt tied before the gate without, in the meeting of two ways. And they loose him.
11:5. And some of them that stood there said to them: What do you loosing the colt?
11:6. Who said to them as Jesus had commanded them. And they let him go with them.
11:7. And they brought the colt to Jesus. And they lay their garments on him: and he sat upon him.
11:8. And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down boughs from the trees and strewed them in the way.
11:9. And they that went before and they that followed cried, saying: Hosanna: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
11:10. Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that cometh: Hosanna in the highest.
11:11. And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple: and having viewed all things round about, when now the eventide was come, he went out to Bethania with the twelve.
11:12. And the next day when they came out from Bethania, he was hungry.
11:13. And when he had seen afar off a fig tree having leaves, he came, if perhaps he might find any thing on it. And when he was come to it, he found nothing but leaves. For it was not the time for figs.
11:14. And answering he said to it: May no man hereafter eat fruit of thee any more for ever! And his disciples heard it.
11:15. And they came to Jerusalem. And when he was entered into the temple, he began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple: and over threw the tables of the moneychangers and the chairs of them that sold doves.
11:16. And he suffered not that any man should carry a vessel through the temple.
11:17. And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written: My house shall be called the house of prayer to all nations, but you have made it a den of thieves.
11:18. Which when the chief priests and the scribes had heard, they sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because the whole mult.i.tude was in admiration at his doctrine.
11:19. And when evening was come, he went forth out of the city.
11:20. And when they pa.s.sed by in the morning they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
11:21. And Peter remembering, said to him: Rabbi, behold the fig tree which thou didst curse is withered away.
11:22. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Have the faith of G.o.d.
11:23. Amen I say to you that whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou removed and be cast into the sea, and shall not stagger in his heart, but be believe that whatsoever he saith shall be done; it shall be done unto him.
11:24. Therefore I say unto you, all things, whatsoever you ask when ye pray, believe that you shall receive: and they shall come unto you.
11:25. And when you shall stand to pray, forgive, if you have aught against any man: that your Father also, who is in heaven, may forgive you your sins.
11:26. But if you will not forgive, neither will your father that is in heaven forgive you your sins.
11:27. And they come again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.
