Update: 2024.07.30
Mark 10:1 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) from there (ekeithen), having stood up (anastas), [the Jesus, v9:39, RE] causes himself to come (erchetai) into (eis) the (ta) boundaries (horia) of the (tēs) Judaea (Ioudaias), and (kai) on the other side (peran) of the (tou) Jordan (Iordanou).
And (kai) again (palin) crowds (ochloi) caused themselves to come together (sumporeuontai) to (pros) him (auton).
And (kai) as (hōs) he had been accustomed (eiōthei), again (palin) he was teaching (edidasken) them (autous).
Mark 10:2 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) Pharisees (Pharisaioi) having come to (proselthontes) [him, v1, RE], they were inquiring (epērōtōn) of him (auton) if (ei) it is being outside1832 (exestin) [of the law, AE] for [a] male (andri) to send away (apolusai) [a] female (gunaika), testing (peirazontes) him (auton).
Mark 10:3 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [Jesus, v9:39, RE] having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis), he enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “Why (ti) did Moses cause himself to give [an] injunction (eneteilato Mōusēs) to you (humin)?”
Mark 10:4 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) [Pharisees, v2, RE] enunciated (eipan), “Moses (Mōusēs) turned [[the] law, AE] over (epetrepsen) [to us, v3, RE] to write (grapsai) [a] little scroll (biblion) of [a] writing of departure (apostasiou), and (kai) to send away (apolusai) [[a] female, v1, RE].”
Mark 10:5 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), "For (pros) [the sake, AE] of the (tēn) hardness of the heart (sklērokardian) of you (humōn) he wrote (egrapsen) to you (humin) the (tēn) injunction (entolēn) of this (tautēn).
Mark 10:6 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) from (apo) [the] beginning (archēs) of creation (ktiseōs) [a] male (arsen) and (kai) [a] breasted one (thēlu) of them (autous) was made (epoiēsen)!
Mark 10:7 (LIT/UBS4) On account (heheken) of this (toutou) [a] mortal (anthrōpos) shall leave (kataleipsei) the (ton) father (patera) of him (autou), and (kai) the (tēn) mother (mētera), and (kai) he shall be glued (proskollēthēsetai) to (pros) the (tēn) female (gunaika) of him (autou).
Mark 10:8 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) the (hoi) two (duo) shall cause themselves to be (esontai) into (eis) one (mian) flesh (sarka).
And so (hōste) they are absolutely no longer yet (ouketi eisin) two (duo), BUT (alla), one (mia) flesh (sarx)!
Mark 10:9 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), what (ho) the (ho) God (theos) yoked together (sunezeuxen), <let> no mortal (anthrōpos mē) separate (chōrizetō)."
Mark 10:10 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) into (eis) the (tēn) house (oikian) again (palin), the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) were inquiring (epērōtōn) of him (auton) about (peri) this (toutou).
Mark 10:11 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) he says (legei) to them (autois), “Perhaps (an) whoever (hos) may send away (apolusē) the (tēn) female (gunaika) of him (autou), and (kai) may marry (gamēsē) another (allēn), he adulterates himself (moichatai) over (ep’) [the sake, AE] of her (autēn);
Mark 10:12 (LIT/UBS4) and (kai) if perhaps (ean) she (autē), having sent away (apolusasa) the (ton) male (andra) of her (autēs), may marry (gamēsē) another (allon), she adulterates herself (moichatai).”
Mark 10:13 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) they were bringing to (prosepheron) him (autō) young children (paidia), in order that (hina) he may cause himself to take hold (hapsētai) of them (autōn).
But (de) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) epitomized (epetimēsan) them (autois).
Mark 10:14 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) having seen (idōn) [it, AE] the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) was very agitated (ēganaktēsen), and (kai) he enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “Let go (aphete) of the (ta) young children (paidia) to cause themselves to come (erchesthai) to (pros) me (me)!
Do not cut them off (mē kōluete auta)!
Because (gar) of the (tōn) [young children, RE] like these (toioutōn) is (estin) the (hē) Kingdom932 (basileia) of the (tou) God (theou).
Mark 10:15 (LIT/UBS4) Truly (amēn) I say (legō) to you (humin), perhaps (an) whoever (hos) may not cause himself to receive (mē dexētai) the (tēn) Kingdom932 (basileian) of the (tou) God (theou) as (hōs) [a] young child (paidion), no (mē), absolutely not (ou) may he enter in (eiselthē) into (eis) her (autēn)!”
Mark 10:16 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) having caused himself to take in his arms (enankalisamenos auta) [young children, v15, RE], he was eulogizing [them, RE] down (kateulogei), putting (titheis) the (tas) hands (cheiras) upon (ep’) them (auta).
Mark 10:17 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) of him (autou) being caused to go out (ekporeuomenou) upon (epi) [a] way (hodon), one (heis) [disciple, v13, RE] having made [a] course toward (prosdramōn) [the Jesus, v14, RE], and (kai) having fallen upon the knees1120 (gonupetēsas) of him (auton), he was inquiring (epērōta) of him (auton);
“Good (agathe) teacher (didaskale), what (ti) may I do (poiēsō) in order that (hina) I may inherit (klēronomēsō) ageless (aiōnion) life (zōēn)?”
Mark 10:18 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to him (autō), "Why (ti) do you say (legeis) me (me) [to be] good (agathon)?
Absolutely not one (oudeis) [is] good (agathos) if (ei) not (mē) one (heis), the (ho) God (theos)!
(If Jesus Christ was the God himself, and God doesn't lie (Tit. 1:2; Heb. 6:18), then why would Jesus/God lie, denying that he was good? And why would Jesus state that another being other than himself was the only being who was good, which other being Jesus stated was the God alone?
Mark 10:19 (LIT/UBS4) You have seen (oidas) the (tas) injunctions (entolas):
do not do murder (mē phoneusēs);
do not do adultery (mē moicheusēs);
do not steal (mē klepsēs);
do not falsely witness (mē pseudomarturēsēs);
do not defraud (mē aposterēsēs);
honor (tima) the (ton) father (patera) of you (sou), and (kai) the (tēn) mother (mētera)."
Mark 10:20 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [disciple, v13, RE] shed light5346 (ephē) to him (autō), “Teacher (didaskale), of all (panta) of these (tauta) I have kept watchful guard of myself (ephulaxamēn), out (ek) of my (mou) youth (neotētos).”
Mark 10:21 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous), having looked in1689 (emblepsas) to him (autō), loved (ēgapēsen) him (auton), and (kai) he enunciated (eipen) to him (autō), "One (hen) [thing, AE] you (se) lack (husterei):
get underway (hupage), as much as (hosa) you have (echeis), sell (pōlēson), and (kai) give (dos) to the (tois) poor (ptōchois) [disciples, v13, RE], and (kai) you shall have (hexeis) treasure (thēsauron) in (en) heaven (ouranō).
And (kai) secondly (deuro), follow (akolouthei) me (moi)."
(“having looked in” or “to look into” something is a common colloquialism used by the biblical writers to indicate asking God for revelation; asking for word of knowledge, or word of wisdom or discerning of spirits, about something or someone, 1 Cor. 12. See Mat. 6:26, 19:26; Mark 8:25, 10:21, 27, 14:67; Luke 20:17, 22:61; John 1:36, 42; Acts 1:11, 22:11.)
(For
who was to receive the collections, the gracious abundant sharings, like
the collections from the believers in the area of Corinth, see what
Christ Jesus and the apostles taught and preached, Mat. 19:20-21,
26:6-13; Mark 10:20-21, 14:3-9; Luke 4:18-19, *14:12-14, 21-22, 18:22,
19:8; John 12:3-8, 13:28-29; Acts 2:44-47; Rom. 15:26; 1 Cor. 13:3,
16:1-2;
2 Cor. 6:10, 8:9, 9:9; Gal. 2:10.)
Mark 10:22 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [disciple, v13, RE] having become gloomy (stugnasas) over (epi) the (tō) Word (logō), he went away (apēlthen) being grieved (lupoumenos), because (gar) he was being (ēn) one holding (echōn) many (polla) acquisitions (ktēmata).
Mark 10:23 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) he having caused himself to look around (periblepsamenos), the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) says (legei) to the (tois) disciples (mathētais) of him (autou), “How (pōs) difficultly (duskolōs) shall the (hoi) [disciples, v13, ER] having (echontes) the (ta) necessities (chrēmata) cause themselves to enter in (eiseleusontai) into (eis) the (tēn) Kingdom932 (basileian) of the (tou) God (theou)?”
(If people can’t take their necessary earthly possessions with them when they die, and when they are raised up out of the grave in their new perfect spirit-based bodies, like Jesus’ resurrected body, they shall have no need for earthly necessities, then the timing of this entrance into the Kingdom of the God must occur before a disciple dies, before a disciple’s resurrection, while a disciple is still encumbered with the needs for earthly necessities. Therefore, this entrance into the Kingdom of the God, about which some disciples are encumbered by their own earthly necessities, must occur at least before the return of Jesus Christ for his one body.)
Mark 10:24 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) were being awed (ethambounto) over (epi) the (tois) words (legois) of him (autou).
But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous), again (palin) having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis), he says (legei) to them (autois), “Born ones (tekna), how (pōs) difficult (duskolon) is (estin) [it, AE] to enter in (eiselthein) into (eis) the (tēn) Kingdom932 (basileian) of the (tou) God (theou)?
Mark 10:25 (LIT/UBS4) Is it (estin) easier (eukopōteron) for [a] camel (kamēlon) to come through (dielthein) through (dia) the (tēs) loophole (trumalias) of the (tou) needle (raphidos), or (ē) for [a] wealthy (plousion) [disciple, v24, RE] to enter in (eiselthein) into (eis) the (tēn) Kingdom932 (basileian) of the (tou) God (theou)?”
(For the way leading into life having been smothered, and for the lawyers having stolen the key of knowledge so that others cannot enter in, and subsequently for believers having to force themselves into the Kingdom of the Heavens, see Mat. 7:13-14, 21, 11:12, 16:19, 18:3-9, 19:17-26; Mark 9:43-48, 10:23-25; Luke 11:52, 13:24, 16:16, 18:16-27; John 3:3-6, 10:1-9; Acts 14:21-22)
Mark 10:26 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) [disciples, v24, RE] were being abundantly knocked out1605 (perissōs exeplēssonto), saying (legontes) to (pros) themselves (heautous), “And (kai) who (ti) can inherently power himself (dunatai) to be made whole (sōthēnai)!?”
Mark 10:27 (LIT/UBS4) He having looked in1689 (emblepsas) to them (autois), the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) says (legei), “Alongside3844 (para) to mortals (anthrōpois) [[a] wealthy disciple, v25, RE] [is] [an] inherently unpowered (adunaton) [disciple, v24, ER], BUT (all’), absolutely not (ou) alongside3844, 3936 (para) to God (theō)!
Because (gar) all (panta) alongside3844, 3936 (para) to the (tō) God (theō) [are] inherently powered (dunata) [disciples, v24, ER].”
(For a believer's responsibility to stand himself alongside of the Father through doing good works, in order to receive anything from him, see Mat. 6:1-4, 18:19, 19:26, 21:42; Mark 10:27, 12:11; Luke 1:30, 37; John 5:44, 6:45-46, 8:38-42, 9:16, 33, 17:5-8; Rom. 2:11-13, 6:13, 12:1; 1 Cor. 7:24, 8:8a; 2 Cor. 9:8; Gal. 3:11; Eph. 6:8; 1 Tim. 2:10; 2 Tim. 3:17; Tit. 2:14, 3:8,14; Heb. 10:24; James 1:5-7, 27; 1 Pet. 2:20-21; 2 Pet. 3:8; 2 John 1:3; Rev. 2:28)
Mark 10:28 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Peter (Petros) caused himself to start (ērxato) to say (legein) to him (autō), “Behold (idou), we (hēmeis) have let go (aphēkamen) of everything (panta), and (kai) we have followed (ēkolouthēkamen) you (soi)!”
Mark 10:29 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) shed light5346 (ephē), “Truly (amēn) I say (legō) to you (humin), there is (estin) absolutely not one (oudeis) [disciple, v24, ER] who (hos) has let go (aphēken) of [a] house (oikian), or (ē) of brothers (adelphous), or (ē) of sisters (adelphas), or (ē) of [a] mother (mētera), or (ē) of [a] father (patera), or (ē) of born ones (tekna), or (ē) of fields (agrous), on account (heneken) of me (mou) and (kai) on account (heneken) of the (tou) Evangelism (euangeliou),
Mark 10:30 (LIT/UBS4) [who, v29, RE] if perhaps (ean) may not receive (mē labē) [a] hundred times (hekatontaplasiona) [more, AE] now (nun) in (en) the (tō) age (kairō), this (toutō) [age, RE], of houses (oikias), and (kai) of brothers (adelphous), and (kai) of sisters (adelphas), and (kai) of mothers (mēteras), and (kai) of born ones (tekna), and (kai) of fields (agrous), together with (meta) pursuits (diōgmōn), and (kai) [receive, RE] in (en) the (tō) age (aiōni), the (tō) [age, RE] being caused to come (erchomenō), ageless (aiōnion) life (zōēn)!?
Mark 10:31 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) many (polloi) first4413 (prōtoi) [disciples, v24, ER] shall cause themselves to be (esontai) last2078 (eschatoi) [disciples, v24, ER], and (kai) the (hoi) last2078 (eschatoi) [disciples, v24, ER] [shall cause themselves to be, RE] first4413 (prōtoi) [disciples, v24, ER].”
Mark 10:32 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) they were being (ēsan) in (en) the (tē) way (hodō) stepping up (anabainontes) into (eis) Jerusalem (Ierosoluma).
And (kai) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) was being (ēn) [[a] disciple, AE] leading before (proagōn) them (autous), and (kai) they were being awed (ethambounto).
But (de) the (hoi) [disciples, v24, ER] following (akolouthountes) were being made fearful (ephobounto).
And (kai) again (palin) having taken alongside (paralabōn) the (tous) twelve (dōdeka), he caused himself to start (ērxato) to say (legein) to them (autois) the (ta) [prophecies, AE] being about (mellonta) to come together with (sumbainein) him (autō);
(See Mat. 16:21; Mark 8:31, 19:12; Luke 9:22, 24:44-46; Acts 3:18, 26:23)
Mark 10:33 (LIT/UBS4) that (hoti), “Behold (idou), we walk up (anabainomen) into (eis) Jerusalem (Hierosoluma);
and (kai) the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) shall be passed aside (paradothēsetai) to the (tois) chief sacrificial priests (archiereusin) and (kai) to the (tois) writers (grammateusin);
and (kai) they shall condemn (katakrinousin) him (auton) to death (thanatō);
and (kai) they shall pass him aside (paradōsousin auton) to the (tois) ethnic groups (ethnesin);
Mark 10:34 (LIT/UBS4) and (kai) they shall put him in [a] child’s role (empaixousin autō);
and (kai) they shall spit on (emptusousin) him (autō);
and (kai) they shall scourge (mastigōsousin) him (auton);
and (kai) they shall kill (apoktenousin) [him, RE]!
(See Num. 19:12; Psalm 16, 22, 34:20, 41:9; Isa. 53; Zech. 11:12-13)
And (kai) with (meta) [the passing, AE] of three (treis) days (hēmeras) he shall cause himself to stand up (anastēsetai)!”
(For Jesus standing up on the third day, see
Psa. 16:10; Mat. 16:21, 17:23, 20:18-19, 27:62-63; Mark 8:31, 9:31,

Cor. 15:4)
Mark 10:35 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) causing themselves to go to (prosporeuontai) him (autō), James (Iakōbos) and (kai) John (Iōannēs), the (hoi) sons (huioi) of Zebedee (Zebedaiou), are saying (legontes) to him (autō), “Teacher (didaskale), we desire (thelomen) that (hina) if perhaps (ean) whatever (ho) we may request (aitēsōmen) of you (se) you may do (poiēsēs) [it, AE] for us (hēmin)!”
Mark 10:36 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [Jesus, v32, RE] enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “What (ti) do you desire (thelete) I may do (poiēsō) for you (humin)?”
Mark 10:37 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) [James and John, v35, RE] enunciated (eipan) to him (autō), “Give (dos) [it, AE] to us (hēmin) that (hina) we may sit down (kathisōmen), one (heis) out (ek) right (dexiōn) and (kai) one (heis) out (ex) left (aristerōn) of you (sou), in (en) the (tē) glory (doxē) of you (sou)!”
Mark 10:38 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “You have absolutely not seen (ouk oidate) what (ti) you cause yourselves to request (aiteisthe)!
Can you inherently power yourselves (dunasthe) to drink (piein) the (to) cup (potērion) which (ho) I (egō) drink (pinō), or (ē) to be baptized (baptisthēnai) [in, AE] the (to) baptism (baptisma) of which (ho) I (egō) am baptized (baptizomai)?”
Mark 10:39 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) [James and John, v35, RE] enunciated (eipan) to him (autō), “We can inherently power ourselves (dunametha).”
But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “The (to) cup (potērion) which (ho) I (egō) drink (pinō), you shall cause yourselves to drink (piesthe);

Mark 10:40 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) of the (to) [enunciation, v37, RE] to sit down (kathisai) out (ek) right (dexiōn) of me (mou), or (ē) out (ex) left (euōnumōn), is absolutely not (ouk estin) mine (emon) to give (dounai)!

Mark 10:41 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) the (hoi) ten (deka) having heard (akousantes), they caused themselves to start (ērxanto) to be very agitated (aganaktein) about (peri) James (Iakōbou) and (kai) John (Iōannou).
Mark 10:42 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) having caused himself to call aloud to (proskalesamenos) them (autous), the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) says (legei) to them (autois), “You have seen (oidate) that (hoti) the (hoi) [disciples, v24, ER] concluding (dokountes) to be first (archein) [disciples, v24, ER] of the (tōn) ethnic groups (ethnōn) lord [it, AE] down (katakurieuousin) [over, AE] them (autōn);

Mark 10:45 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) absolutely did not come (ouk ēlthen) to be ministered to (diakonēthēnai), BUT (alla) instead (anti), to minister (diakonēsai), and (kai) to give (dounai) the (tēn) soul (psuchēn) of him (autou) also (kai), [to be] [a] redeemer (lutron) of many (pollōn)!”

Mark 10:46 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) they cause themselves to come (erchontai) into (eis) Jericho (Ierichō).
And (kai) of him (autou) causing himself to go out (ekporeuomenou) from (apo) Jericho (Ierichō), and (kai) the (tōn) disciples (mathētōn) of him (autou) and (kai) [a] suitable (hikanou) crowd (ochlou), the (ho) son (huios) of Timaeus (Timaiou) Bartimaeus (Bartimaios), [a] blind (tuphlos) beggar (prosaitēs), was causing himself to sit down (ekathēto) alongside (para) the (tēn) way (hodon).
Mark 10:47 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) he having heard (akousas) that (hoti) Jesus (Iēsous) the (ho) Nazarene (Nazarēnos) is (estin) [coming, AE], he caused himself to start (ērxato) to cry out (krazein), and (kai) to say (legein), “Jesus (Iēsou), son (huie) of David (Dauid), have mercy (eleēson) for me (me)!”
Mark 10:48 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) many (polloi) were epitomizing (epetimōn) him (autō) in order that (hina) he may be silent (siōpēsē).
