Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation
Mark 3:13-17 “13 And he goes up into the mountain, and calls whom he himself would, and they went to him.14 And he appointed twelve that they might be with him, and that he might send them to preach,
15 and to have power [to heal diseases, and] to cast out demons.16 And he gave to Simon the surname of Peter;17 and James the [son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, and he gave them the surname of Boanerges, that is, Sons of thunder;”
Mark 5:36-4136 But Jesus [immediately], having heard the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not; only believe.37 And he suffered no one to accompany him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James.38 And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and people weeping and wailing greatly.
39 And entering in he says to them, Why do ye make a tumult and weep? the child has not died, but sleeps.
40 And they derided him. But he, having put [them] all out, takes with [him] the father of the child, and the mother, and those that were with him, and enters in where the child was lying.41 And having laid hold of the hand of the child, he says to her, Talitha koumi, which is, interpreted, Damsel, I say to thee, Arise.”
Mark 9:1-3 “9 And he said to them, Verily I say unto you, There are some of those standing here that shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God come in power.
2 And after six days Jesus takes with [him] Peter and James and John, and takes them up on a high mountain by themselves apart. And he was transfigured before them:3 and his garments became shining, exceeding white [as snow], such as fuller on earth could not whiten [them].”
Mark 14:32-33 32 And they come to a place of which the name [is] Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit here while I shall pray.33 And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be amazed and oppressed in spirit.”
