Mark 6:1-9 ▼

1 And he departed thence, & came into his owne countrey, and his disciples folowed him.

2 And when the sabboth day was come, he beganne to teache in the synagogue: And many that hearde hym, were astonyed, and sayde: from whence hath he these thynges? And what wisdome is this that is geuen vnto hym? and such myghtie workes that are wrought by his handes?

3 Is not this the carpenter Maries sonne, the brother of Iames & Ioses, and of Iuda and Simon? and are not his sisters here with vs? And they were offended at hym.

4 Iesus sayde vnto them, that a prophete is not without honour, but in his owne countrey, and among his owne kynne, and in his owne house.

5 And he coulde there shewe no mightie worke: but layde his handes vpon a fewe sicke folke, and healed them.

6 And he marueyled, because of their vnbeliefe. And he went about by the townes that lay on euery syde, teachyng.

7 And he called the twelue, and beganne to sende them foorth, two and two, and gaue the power ouer vncleane spirites.

8 And commaunded them, that they shoulde take nothyng in their iourney, saue a staffe only: no scrippe, no bread, no money in their purse.

9 But shoulde be shoed with sandales: And that they shoulde not put on two coates.
