Mark 2

Gen Z: Mark 2

1So, he rolled back into Capernaum after a bit, and everyone was like, "Yo, he's back at the crib!"

2Right away, a whole squad showed up, so packed there was barely room, not even by the door, and he was preaching the vibes to them.

3They came through with a dude who was sick, carried by four of his homies.

4When they couldn't get close 'cause it was too crowded, they totally went all out and pulled back the roof where he was, then dropped the bed down with the sick guy on it.

5Jesus saw their faith and said to the sick dude, "Bro, your sins are forgiven, no cap."

6But some scribes were just chilling there, thinking sus thoughts in their heads.

7They were like, "Why's this dude talking smack? Only God can forgive sins, fr."

8And as soon as Jesus caught the vibes of what they were thinking, he said, "Why y'all trippin' in your hearts?"

9Like, what's easier to say to the sick dude? "Your sins are forgiven," or "Get up, grab your bed, and bounce?"

10But so you know the Son of Man has the rizz to forgive sins on earth, he told the sick guy,

11Yo, get up, take your bed, and bounce back to your crib.

12Dude popped up, grabbed his bed, and rolled out in front of everyone; they were shook and praised God, saying, "We’ve never seen anything like this!"

13He hit the beach again, and all the peeps flocked to him, and he dropped some knowledge on them.

14As he was passing by, he spotted Levi chilling at the tax booth and said, "Follow me." Levi got up and dipped with him.

15While Jesus was chilling at dinner in his pad, a bunch of tax collectors and sinners were vibing with him and his crew; there were a lot of them, and they were all about that life.

16When the scribes and Pharisees peeped him eating with tax collectors and sinners, they asked his crew, "How can he eat and drink with these people?"

17Jesus caught wind of it and said, "Healthy people don’t need a doctor, but the sick do. I didn’t come to call the righteous, but the sinners to level up."

18John’s crew and the Pharisees used to fast, and they came to him asking, "Why don’t your squad fast?"

19Jesus was like, "Can the wedding guests fast when the bridegroom is right there? As long as he’s with them, they can’t fast."

20But the time will come when the bridegroom gets taken away, and then they’ll be fasting for real.

21No cap, you can’t stitch new threads on old fits; otherwise, the new patch just messes up the vibe even more.

22And for real, you can’t pour new juice into old bottles; it’ll just spill everywhere and wreck the bottles. New juice needs fresh bottles, periodt.

23So, he was vibing through the cornfields on the chill day; and his crew started grabbing some corn as they walked.

24The Pharisees were like, "Yo, why are they breaking the rules on the chill day?"

25He was like, "Did you even peep what David did when he was starving with his squad?"

26How he rolled into God’s crib during Abiathar’s time and snagged the showbread, which is only meant for the priests, and shared it with his crew?

27He said, "The chill day was made for humans, not the other way around."

28So, the Son of Man is also the boss of the chill day.

KJV: Mark 2

1And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house.

2And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

3And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

4And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

5When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

6But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

7Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

8And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

9Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

10But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

11I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.

12And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

13And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.

14And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alpheus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

15And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.

16And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?

17When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

18And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?

19And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

20But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

21No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.

22And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.

23And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.

24And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?

25And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?

26How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

27And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

28Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
