King James Version KJV
New International Version NIV
16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.
16
“No one lights a lamp and hides it in a clay jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a stand, so that those who come in can see the light.
17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
17
For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.
18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.
18
Therefore consider carefully how you listen. Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what they think they have will be taken from them.”
19 Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press.
19
Now Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see him, but they were not able to get near him because of the crowd.
20 And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.
20
Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 And he answered and said unto them,My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.
21
He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear God’s word and put it into practice.”
22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them,Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.
22
One day Jesus said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” So they got into a boat and set out.
23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.
23
As they sailed, he fell asleep. A squall came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.
24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
24
The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Master, Master, we’re going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm.
25 And he said unto them,Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.
25
“Where is your faith?” he asked his disciples. In fear and amazement they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him.”
26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
26
They sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is across the lake from Galilee.
