Mark 3:11-17 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

11. Whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, those possessed fell down before Him and cried out, “You are the Son of God! ”

12. And He would strongly warn them not to make Him known.

13. Then He went up the mountain and summoned those He wanted, and they came to Him.

14. He also appointed 12 — He also named them apostles — to be with Him, to send them out to preach,

15. and to have authority to drive out demons.

16. He appointed the Twelve: To Simon, He gave the name Peter;

17. and to James the son of Zebedee, and to his brother John, He gave the name “Boanerges”(that is, “Sons of Thunder” );
