1And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there who had his hand withered. 2And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day; that they might accuse him. 3And he says to the man who had his hand withered, Stand in the middle [of the synagogue]. 4And he says to them, Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill? But they held their peace. 5And when he had looked around on them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their heart, he says to the man, Stretch forth [your] hand. And he stretched it forth; and his hand was restored. 6And the Pharisees went out, and right away with the Herodians gave counsel against him, how they might destroy him. 7And Jesus with his disciples withdrew to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed; and from Judea, 8and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and beyond the Jordan, and about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him. 9And he spoke to his disciples, that a little boat should wait on him because of the crowd, lest they should throng him: 10for he had healed many; insomuch that as many as had plagues pressed on him that they might touch him. 11And the unclean spirits, whenever they looked at him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, You are the Son of God. 12And he charged them much that they should not make him known. 13And he goes up into the mountain, and calls to him whom he himself wanted; and they went to him. 14And he appointed twelve, whom he also named apostles, that they might be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, 15and to have authority to cast out demons. 16And he appointed the twelve: and he gave the name Peter to Simon; 17and James the [son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he gave them the name Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder: 18and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, 19and Judas Iscariot, who also delivered him up. 20And he comes into a house. And the multitude comes together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21And when his friends heard it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself. 22And the scribes that came down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebul, and, By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons. 23And he called them to him, and said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? 24And if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom can't stand. 25And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he can't stand, but has an end. 27But no one can enter into the house of the strong [man], and spoil his goods, except he first binds the strong [man]; and then he will spoil his house. 28Truly I say to you{+}, All their sins will be forgiven to the sons of men, and their blasphemies by whichever they will blaspheme: 29but whoever will blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin: 30because they said, He has an unclean spirit. 31And his mother and his brothers come; and, standing outside, they sent to him, calling him. 32And a multitude was sitting about him; and they say to him, Look, your mother and your brothers and your sisters outside seek for you. 33And he answers them, and says, Who is my mother and my brothers? 34And looking around on those who sat around him, he says, Here are my mother and my brothers. 35For whoever will do the will of God, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
