New Testament

Mark 8:14-31 Modern English Version (MEV)

14. Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread and did not have more than one loaf with them in the boat.

15. He warned them, “Take heed. Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”

16. They reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is because we have no bread.”

17. Being aware of it, Jesus said to them, “Why do you reason that you have no bread? Do you still not perceive or understand? Are your hearts still hardened?

18. Having eyes, do you not see? Having ears, do you not hear? And do you not remember?

19. When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you collect?”They said to Him, “Twelve.”

20. “And the seven among the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you collect?”They said, “Seven.”

21. He said to them, “Do you still not understand?”

22. He came to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to Him and entreated Him to touch him.

23. He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. When He had spit on his eyes and put His hands on him, He asked him, “Do you see anything?”

24. He looked up and said, “I see men as trees, walking.”

25. Then again He put His hands on his eyes and made him look up. And he was restored and saw everyone clearly.

26. He sent him home away to his house, saying, “Neither go into the town, nor tell it to anyone in the town.”

27. Jesus and His disciples went out into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. On the way He asked His disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”

28. They answered, “John the Baptist, but some say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets.”

29. He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”Peter answered Him, “You are the Christ.”

30. He warned them that they should tell no one about Him.

31. He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
