Mark 3:13-21

Jesus Appoints the Twelve

13 And He *went up on ^athe mountain and *^bsummoned those whom He Himself wanted, and they came to Him. 14 And He appointed twelve ¹(whom He also named apostles) to be with Him and to send them out to preach, 15 and to have authority to cast out the demons. 16 And He appointed the twelve: ^aSimon (to whom He gave the name Peter), 17 and James, the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James (to them He gave the name Boanerges, which means, “Sons of Thunder”); 18 and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the ¹Zealot; 19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
20 And He *came ¹^ahome, and the ^bcrowd *gathered again, ^cso that they could not even eat ²a meal. 21 And when ^aHis own ¹people heard this, they went out to take custody of Him; for they were saying, “^bHe has lost His senses.”
