Gospel of Mark

"Whoever receives one such little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me, doesn't receive me, but him who sent me."

John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone who doesn't follow us casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he doesn't follow us."

But Jesus said, "Don't forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

For whoever is not against us is on our side.

For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you are Christ's, most assuredly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.

Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he was thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.

If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire,

'where their worm doesn't die, and the fire is not quenched.'

If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched --

'where their worm doesn't die, and the fire is not quenched.'

If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire,

'where their worm doesn't die, and the fire is not quenched.'

For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.

Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."

He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.

Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"

He answered, "What did Moses command you?"

They said, "Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her."
