Mark 3:13-19 - The Selection Of The Twelve Apostles

¹³ And he went up into a mountain, and called unto him whom he would, and they came unto him. ¹⁴ And he ordained the twelve that they should be with him, and that he might send them to preach. ¹⁵ And that they might have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out devils.

¹⁶ And he gave Simon to name, Peter. ¹⁷ And he called James the son of Zebedee, and John, James' brother, and gave them Boanerges to name, which is to say, the Sons of Thunder. ¹⁸ And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon of Canaan, ¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot, which same also betrayed him.

¹² And it fortuned in those days, that he went out into a mountain for to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God. ¹³ And as soon as it was day, he called his disciples, and of them he chose twelve, which also he called his apostles.

¹⁴ Simon, whom also he named Peter: and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew; ¹⁵ Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon called Zealotes, ¹⁶ and Judas James' son, and Judas Iscariot, which same was the traitor.
