Mark 3:13-19 Bible in Basic English (BBE)

13 And he went up into the mountain, and sent for those whom it was his pleasure to have with him: and they went to him.

14 And he took twelve to be with him, so that he might send them out as preachers,

15 And give them the power of driving out evil spirits:

16 To Simon he gave the second name of Peter;

17 And to James, the son of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James, he gave the second name of Boanerges, which is, 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 Zealot;

19 And Judas Iscariot, who was false to him.
