¹And he entered again into the synagogue, and there was there a man having the hand withered,

¹ܘܥܠ ܬܘܒ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܕܝܒܝܫܐ ܐܝܕܗ ܀

²and they were watching him, whether on the sabbaths he will heal him, that they might accuse him.

²ܘܢܛܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܕܐܢ ܡܐܤܐ ܠܗ ܒܫܒܬܐ ܢܩܛܪܓܘܢܝܗܝ ܀

³And he saith to the man having the hand withered, `Rise up in the midst.`

³ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘ ܓܒܪܐ ܕܝܒܝܫܐ ܐܝܕܗ ܩܘܡ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ ܀

⁴And he saith to them, `Is it lawful on the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? life to save, or to kill?` but they were silent.

⁴ܐܡܪ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܠܝܛ ܒܫܒܬܐ ܠܡܥܒܕ ܕܛܒ ܐܘ ܕܒܝܫ ܢܦܫܐ ܠܡܚܝܘ ܐܘ ܠܡܘܒܕܘ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܬܝܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܀

⁵And having looked round upon them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their heart, he saith to the man, `Stretch forth thy hand;` and he stretched forth, and his hand was restored whole as the other;

⁵ܘܚܪ ܒܗܘܢ ܒܚܡܬܐ ܟܕ ܟܪܝܐ ܠܗ ܥܠ ܩܫܝܘܬ ܠܒܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘ ܓܒܪܐ ܦܫܘܛ ܐܝܕܟ ܘܦܫܛ ܘܬܩܢܬ ܐܝܕܗ ܀

⁶and the Pharisees having gone forth, immediately, with the Herodians, were taking counsel against him how they might destroy him.

⁶ܘܢܦܩܘ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܒܪ ܫܥܬܗ ܥܡ ܕܒܝܬ ܗܪܘܕܤ ܘܡܠܟܐ ܢܤܒܘ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܢܘܒܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܀

⁷And Jesus withdrew with his disciples unto the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judea,

⁷ܘܝܫܘܥ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܙܠ ܠܗ ܠܘܬ ܝܡܐ ܘܥܡܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܢܩܦܗ ܗܘܐ ܘܡܢ ܝܗܘܕ ܀

⁸and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon — a great multitude — having heard how great things he was doing, came unto him.

⁸ܘܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܡܢ ܐܕܘܡ ܘܡܢ ܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܘܪܕܢܢ ܘܡܢ ܨܘܪ ܘܡܢ ܨܝܕܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܗܘܘ ܟܠ ܕܥܒܕ ܐܬܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܀

⁹And he said to his disciples that a little boat may wait on him, because of the multitude, that they may not press upon him,

⁹ܘܐܡܪ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܕܢܩܪܒܘܢ ܠܗ ܤܦܝܢܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܟܢܫܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܚܒܨܘܢܝܗܝ ܀

¹⁰for he did heal many, so that they threw themselves on him, in order to touch him — as many as had plagues;

¹⁰ܤܓܝܐܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܐܤܐ ܗܘܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܢܦܠܝܢ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܢܬܩܪܒܘܢ ܠܗ ܀

¹¹and the unclean spirits, when they were seeing him, were falling down before him, and were crying, saying — `Thou art the Son of God;`

¹¹ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܝ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܚܘܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܛܢܦܬܐ ܡܐ ܕܚܙܐܘܗܝ ܢܦܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܩܥܝܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀

¹²and many times he was charging them that they might not make him manifest.

¹²ܘܤܓܝ ܟܐܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܗܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܓܠܘܢܝܗܝ ܀

¹³And he goeth up to the mountain, and doth call near whom he willed, and they went away to him;

¹³ܘܤܠܩ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܘܩܪܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܘܐܬܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܀

¹⁴and he appointed twelve, that they may be with him, and that he may send them forth to preach,

¹⁴ܘܓܒܐ ܬܪܥܤܪ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܥܡܗ ܘܕܢܫܕܪ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܢܟܪܙܘܢ ܀

¹⁵and to have power to heal the sicknesses, and to cast out the demons.

¹⁵ܘܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܫܠܝܛܝܢ ܕܢܐܤܘܢ ܟܪܝܗܐ ܘܢܦܩܘܢ ܕܝܘܐ ܀

¹⁶And he put on Simon the name Peter;

¹⁶ܘܫܡܝ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܫܡܐ ܟܐܦܐ ܀

¹⁷and James of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, and he put on them names — Boanerges, that is, `Sons of thunder;`

¹⁷ܘܠܝܥܩܘܒ ܒܪ ܙܒܕܝ ܘܠܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܕܝܥܩܘܒ ܤܡ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܡܐ ܒܢܝ ܪܓܫܝ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܒܢܝ ܪܥܡܐ ܀

¹⁸and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Cananite,

¹⁸ܘܐܢܕܪܐܘܤ ܘܦܝܠܝܦܘܤ ܘܒܪ ܬܘܠܡܝ ܘܡܬܝ ܘܬܐܘܡܐ ܘܝܥܩܘܒ ܒܪ ܚܠܦܝ ܘܬܕܝ ܘܫܡܥܘܢ ܩܢܢܝܐ ܀

¹⁹and Judas Iscariot, who did also deliver him up; and they come into a house.

¹⁹ܘܝܗܘܕܐ ܤܟܪܝܘܛܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܫܠܡܗ ܘܐܬܘ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܀

²⁰And come together again doth a multitude, so that they are not able even to eat bread;

²⁰ܘܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܟܢܫܐ ܬܘܒ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܫܟܚܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܚܡܐ ܠܡܐܟܠ ܀

²¹and his friends having heard, went forth to lay hold on him, for they said that he was beside himself,

²¹ܘܫܡܥܘ ܐܚܝܢܘܗܝ ܘܢܦܩܘ ܠܡܐܚܕܗ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܡܢ ܗܘܢܗ ܢܦܩ ܀

²²and the scribes who [are] from Jerusalem having come down, said — `He hath Beelzeboul,` and — `By the ruler of the demons he doth cast out the demons.`

²²ܘܤܦܪܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܢܚܬܘ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܥܠܙܒܘܒ ܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܘܒܪܫܐ ܕܕܝܘܐ ܡܦܩ ܕܝܘܐ ܀

²³And, having called them near, in similes he said to them, `How is the Adversary able to cast out the Adversary?

²³ܘܩܪܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܒܡܬܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܤܛܢܐ ܠܤܛܢܐ ܠܡܦܩܘ ܀

²⁴and if a kingdom against itself be divided, that kingdom cannot be made to stand;

²⁴ܐܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܗ ܬܬܦܠܓ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܐ ܠܡܩܡ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܀

²⁵and if a house against itself be divided, that house cannot be made to stand;

²⁵ܘܐܢ ܒܝܬܐ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܗ ܢܬܦܠܓ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܒܝܬܐ ܗܘ ܠܡܩܡ ܀

²⁶and if the Adversary did rise against himself, and hath been divided, he cannot be made to stand, but hath an end.

²⁶ܘܐܢ ܗܘ ܕܤܛܢܐ ܩܡ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܗ ܘܐܬܦܠܓ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܩܡ ܐܠܐ ܚܪܬܗ ܗܝ ܀

²⁷`No one is able the vessels of the strong man — having entered into his house — to spoil, if first he may not bind the strong man, and then his house he will spoil.

²⁷ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܥܘܠ ܠܒܝܬ ܚܤܝܢܐ ܘܢܚܛܘܦ ܡܐܢܘܗܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܠܚܤܝܢܐ ܢܐܤܘܪ ܘܗܝܕܝܢ ܒܝܬܗ ܢܒܘܙ ܀

²⁸`Verily I say to you, that all the sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and evil speakings with which they might speak evil,

²⁸ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܚܛܗܐ ܘܓܘܕܦܐ ܕܢܓܕܦܘܢ ܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܢܫܬܒܩܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܀

²⁹but whoever may speak evil in regard to the Holy Spirit hath not forgiveness — to the age, but is in danger of age-during judgment;`

²⁹ܡܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܢܓܕܦ ܥܠ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܗ ܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܐܠܐ ܡܚܝܒ ܗܘ ܠܕܝܢܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܀

³⁰because they said, `He hath an unclean spirit.`

³⁰ܡܛܠ ܕܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܛܢܦܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܀

³¹Then come do his brethren and mother, and standing without, they sent unto him, calling him,

³¹ܘܐܬܘ ܐܡܗ ܘܐܚܘܗܝ ܩܝܡܝܢ ܠܒܪ ܘܫܕܪܘ ܕܢܩܪܘܢܝܗܝ ܠܗܘܢ ܀

³²and a multitude was sitting about him, and they said to him, `Lo, thy mother and thy brethren without do seek thee.`

³²ܝܬܒ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܚܕܪܘܗܝ ܟܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗ ܗܐ ܐܡܟ ܘܐܚܝܟ ܠܒܪ ܒܥܝܢ ܠܟ ܀

³³And he answered them, saying, `Who is my mother, or my brethren?`

³³ܘܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܐܡܝ ܘܡܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܚܝ ܀

³⁴And having looked round in a circle to those sitting about him, he saith, `Lo, my mother and my brethren!

³⁴ܘܚܪ ܒܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܬܒܝܢ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܐܡܪ ܗܐ ܐܡܝ ܘܗܐ ܐܚܝ ܀

³⁵for whoever may do the will of God, he is my brother, and my sister, and mother.`

³⁵ܡܢ ܕܢܥܒܕ ܓܝܪ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܗܘܝܘ ܐܚܝ ܘܚܬܝ ܘܐܡܝ ܀ ܘܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܢܤܩ ܢܬܒ ܠܗ ܒܤܦܝܢܬܐ ܒܝܡܐ ܘܟܠܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܥܠ ܝܕ ܝܡܐ ܀
