1 For as much1895 as many4183 have taken2021 in hand2021 to set392 forth392 in order1299 a declaration1335 of those3588 things4229 which are most surely4135 believed4135 among1722 us,

2 Even2531 as they delivered3860 them to us, which3588 from the beginning746 were eyewitnesses,845 and ministers5257 of the word;3056

3 It seemed1380 good to me also,2504 having had perfect199 understanding3877 of all3956 things from the very first,509 to write1125 to you in order,2517 most2903 excellent2903 Theophilus,2321

4 That you might know1921 the certainty803 of those things,3056 wherein4012 3739 you have been instructed.2727

5 THERE was in the days2250 of Herod,2264 the king935 of Judaea,2449 a certain5100 priest2409 named3686 Zacharias,2197 of the course2183 of Abia:7 and his wife1135 was of the daughters2364 of Aaron,2 and her name3686 was Elisabeth.1665

6 And they were both297 righteous1342 before1799 God,2316 walking4198 in all3956 the commandments1785 and ordinances1345 of the Lord2962 blameless.273

7 And they had1510 no3756 child,5043 because2530 that Elisabeth1665 was barren,4723 and they both297 were now well4260 stricken4260 in years.2250

8 And it came1096 to pass, that while1722 3588 he executed2407 the priest's2407 office2407 before1725 God2316 in the order5010 of his course,2183

9 According2596 to the custom1485 of the priest's2405 office,2405 his lot2975 was to burn2370 incense2370 when he went1525 into1519 the temple3485 of the Lord.2962

10 And the whole3956 multitude4128 of the people2992 were praying4336 without1854 at the time5610 of incense.2368

11 And there appeared3700 to him an angel32 of the Lord2962 standing2476 on1537 the right1188 side1188 of the altar2379 of incense.2368

12 And when Zacharias2197 saw1492 him, he was troubled,5015 and fear5401 fell1968 on him.

13 But the angel32 said2036 to him, Fear5399 not, Zacharias:2197 for your prayer1162 is heard;1522 and your wife1135 Elisabeth1665 shall bear1080 you a son,5207 and you shall call2564 his name3686 John.2491

14 And you shall have2071 joy5479 and gladness;20 and many4183 shall rejoice5463 at1909 his birth.1083

15 For he shall be great3173 in the sight1799 of the Lord,2962 and shall drink4095 neither3756 3361 wine3631 nor2532 strong4608 drink;4608 and he shall be filled4130 with the Holy40 Ghost,4151 even2089 from his mother's3384 womb.2836

16 And many4183 of the children5207 of Israel2474 shall he turn1994 to the Lord2962 their God.2316

17 And he shall go4281 before1799 him in the spirit4151 and power1411 of Elias,2243 to turn1994 the hearts2588 of the fathers3962 to the children,5043 and the disobedient545 to the wisdom5428 of the just;1342 to make2090 ready2090 a people2992 prepared2680 for the Lord.2962

18 And Zacharias2197 said2036 to the angel,32 Whereby2596 5101 shall I know1097 this?5124 for I am an old4246 man, and my wife1135 well4260 stricken4260 in years.2250

19 And the angel32 answering611 said2036 to him, I am1510 Gabriel,1043 that stand3936 in the presence1799 of God;2316 and am sent649 to speak2980 to you, and to show2097 you these5023 glad2097 tidings.2097

20 And, behold,2400 you shall be dumb,4623 and not able1410 to speak,2980 until891 the day2250 that these5023 things shall be performed,1096 because473 3759 you believe4100 not my words,3056 which3748 shall be fulfilled4137 in their season.2540

21 And the people2992 waited4328 for Zacharias,2197 and marveled2296 that he tarried5549 so long in the temple.3485

22 And when he came1831 out, he could1410 not speak2980 to them: and they perceived1921 that he had seen3708 a vision3701 in the temple:3485 for he beckoned1269 to them, and remained1265 speechless.2974

23 And it came1096 to pass, that, as soon as the days2250 of his ministration3009 were accomplished,4130 he departed565 to his own house.3624

24 And after3326 those5025 days2250 his wife1135 Elisabeth1665 conceived,4815 and hid4032 herself1438 five4002 months,3376 saying,3004

25 Thus3779 has the Lord2962 dealt4160 with me in the days2250 wherein3739 he looked1896 on1896 me, to take851 away851 my reproach3681 among1722 men.444

26 And in the sixth1623 month3376 the angel32 Gabriel1043 was sent649 from God2316 to a city4172 of Galilee,1056 named3686 Nazareth,3478

27 To a virgin3933 espoused3423 to a man435 whose3739 name3686 was Joseph,2501 of the house3624 of David;1138 and the virgin's3933 name3686 was Mary.3137

28 And the angel32 came1525 in to her, and said,2036 Hail,5463 you that are highly favored,5487 the Lord2962 is with you: blessed2127 are you among1722 women.1135

29 And when she saw1492 him, she was troubled1298 at1909 his saying,3056 and cast1260 in her mind what4217 manner4217 of salutation783 this3778 should be.

30 And the angel32 said2036 to her, Fear5399 not, Mary:3137 for you have found2147 favor5485 with God.2316

31 And, behold,2400 you shall conceive4815 in your womb,1064 and bring5088 forth5088 a son,5207 and shall call2564 his name3686 JESUS.2424

32 He shall be great,3173 and shall be called2564 the Son5207 of the Highest:5310 and the Lord2962 God2316 shall give1325 to him the throne2362 of his father3962 David:1138

33 And he shall reign936 over1909 the house3624 of Jacob2384 for ever;165 and of his kingdom932 there shall be no3756 end.5056

34 Then1161 said2036 Mary3137 to the angel,32 How4459 shall this5124 be, seeing1893 I know1097 not a man?435

35 And the angel32 answered611 and said2036 to her, The Holy40 Ghost4151 shall come1904 on you, and the power1411 of the Highest5310 shall overshadow1982 you: therefore1352 also2532 that holy40 thing which shall be born1080 of you shall be called2564 the Son5207 of God.2316

36 And, behold,2400 your cousin4773 Elisabeth,1665 she has also2532 conceived4815 a son5207 in her old1094 age: and this3778 is the sixth1623 month3376 with her, who3588 was called2564 barren.4723

37 For with God2316 nothing3756 shall be impossible.101

38 And Mary3137 said,2036 Behold2400 the handmaid1399 of the Lord;2962 be it to me according2596 to your word.4487 And the angel32 departed565 from her.

39 And Mary3137 arose450 in those5025 days,2250 and went4198 into1519 the hill3714 country with haste,4710 into1519 a city4172 of Juda;2448

40 And entered1525 into1519 the house3624 of Zacharias,2197 and saluted782 Elisabeth.1665

41 And it came1096 to pass, that, when5613 Elisabeth1665 heard191 the salutation783 of Mary,3137 the babe1025 leaped4640 in her womb;2836 and Elisabeth1665 was filled4130 with the Holy40 Ghost:4151

42 And she spoke400 out with a loud3173 voice,5456 and said,2036 Blessed2127 are you among1722 women,1135 and blessed2127 is the fruit2590 of your womb.2836

43 And what4159 is this5124 to me, that the mother3384 of my Lord2962 should come2064 to me?

44 For, see,2400 as soon as the voice5456 of your salutation783 sounded1096 in my3450 ears,3775 the babe1025 leaped4640 in my womb2836 for joy.20

45 And blessed3107 is she that believed:4100 for there shall be a performance5050 of those3588 things which were told2980 her from the Lord.2962

46 And Mary3137 said,2036 My soul5590 does magnify3170 the Lord,2962

47 And my spirit4151 has rejoiced21 in God2316 my Savior.4990

48 For he has regarded1914 the low5014 estate of his handmaiden:1399 for, behold,2400 from now on3568 all3956 generations1074 shall call3106 me blessed.3106

49 For he that is mighty1415 has done4160 to me great3167 things; and holy40 is his name.3686

50 And his mercy1656 is on them that fear5399 him from generation1074 to generation.1074

51 He has showed4160 strength2904 with his arm;1023 he has scattered1287 the proud5244 in the imagination1271 of their hearts.2588

52 He has put2507 down2507 the mighty1413 from their seats,2362 and exalted5312 them of low5011 degree.5011

53 He has filled1705 the hungry3983 with good18 things; and the rich4147 he has sent1821 empty2756 away.1821

54 He has helped482 his servant3816 Israel,2474 in remembrance3415 of his mercy;1656

55 As he spoke2980 to our fathers,3962 to Abraham,11 and to his seed4690 for ever.165

56 And Mary3137 stayed3306 with her about5616 three5140 months,3376 and returned5290 to her own house.3624

57 Now1161 Elisabeth's1665 full4130 time5550 came4130 that she should be delivered;5088 and she brought1080 forth1080 a son.5207

58 And her neighbors4040 and her cousins4773 heard191 how3754 the Lord2962 had showed3170 great3170 mercy1656 on her; and they rejoiced4796 with her.

59 And it came1096 to pass, that on1722 the eighth3590 day2250 they came2064 to circumcise4059 the child;3813 and they called2564 him Zacharias,2197 after1909 the name3686 of his father.3962

60 And his mother3384 answered611 and said,2036 Not so; but he shall be called2564 John.2491

61 And they said2036 to her, There is none3762 of your kindred4772 that is called2564 by this5129 name.3686

62 And they made1770 signs1770 to his father,3962 how5101 he would2309 have him called.2564

63 And he asked154 for a writing4093 table,4093 and wrote,1125 saying,3004 His name3686 is John.2491 And they marveled2296 all.3956

64 And his mouth4750 was opened455 immediately,3916 and his tongue1100 loosed, and he spoke,2980 and praised2127 God.2316

65 And fear5401 came1096 on1909 all3956 that dwelled4039 round4039 about them: and all3956 these5023 sayings4487 were noised1255 abroad1255 throughout1722 all3650 the hill3714 country of Judaea.2449

66 And all3956 they that heard191 them laid5087 them up in their hearts,2588 saying,3004 What5101 686 manner686 of child3813 shall this5124 be! And the hand5495 of the Lord2962 was with him.

67 And his father3962 Zacharias2197 was filled4130 with the Holy40 Ghost,4151 and prophesied,4395 saying,3004

68 Blessed2128 be the Lord2962 God2316 of Israel;2474 for he has visited1980 and redeemed4160 3085 his people,2992

69 And has raised1453 up an horn2768 of salvation4991 for us in the house3624 of his servant3816 David;1138

70 As he spoke2980 by the mouth4750 of his holy40 prophets,4396 which3588 have been since575 the world165 began:

71 That we should be saved4991 from our enemies,2190 and from the hand5495 of all3956 that hate3404 us;

72 To perform4160 the mercy1656 promised to our fathers,3962 and to remember3415 his holy40 covenant;1242

73 The oath3727 which3739 he swore3660 to our father3962 Abraham,11

74 That he would grant1325 to us, that we being delivered4506 out of the hand5495 of our enemies2190 might serve3000 him without870 fear,870

75 In holiness3742 and righteousness1343 before1799 him, all3956 the days2250 of our life.2222

76 And you, child,3813 shall be called2564 the prophet4396 of the Highest:5310 for you shall go4313 before4253 the face4383 of the Lord2962 to prepare2090 his ways;3598

77 To give1325 knowledge1108 of salvation4991 to his people2992 by the remission859 of their sins,266

78 Through1223 the tender4698 mercy1656 of our God;2316 whereby1722 3739 the dayspring395 from on high5311 has visited1980 us,

79 To give2014 light2014 to them that sit2521 in darkness4655 and in the shadow4639 of death,2288 to guide2720 our feet4228 into1519 the way3598 of peace.1515

80 And the child3813 grew,837 and waxed2901 strong2901 in spirit,4151 and was in the deserts2048 till2193 the day2250 of his showing323 to Israel.2474

2

1 And it came1096 to pass in those1565 days,2250 that there went1831 out a decree1378 from Caesar2541 Augustus 828that all3956 the world3625 should be taxed.582

2 (And this3778 taxing583 was first4413 made1096 when Cyrenius2958 was governor2230 of Syria.4947)

3 And all3956 went4198 to be taxed,582 every1538 one into1519 his own2398 city.4172

4 And Joseph2501 also2532 went305 up from Galilee,1056 out of the city4172 of Nazareth,3478 into1519 Judaea,2449 to the city4172 of David,1138 which3748 is called2564 Bethlehem;965 (because1223 he was of the house3624 and lineage3965 of David:1138)

5 To be taxed582 with Mary3137 his espoused3423 wife,1135 being5607 great with child.1471

6 And so it was, that, while they were there,1563 the days2250 were accomplished4130 that she should be delivered.5088

7 And she brought5088 forth5088 her firstborn4416 son,5207 and wrapped4683 him in swaddling4683 clothes,4683 and laid347 him in a manger;5336 because1360 there was no3756 room5117 for them in the inn.2646

8 And there were in the same846 country5561 shepherds4166 abiding63 in the field,68 keeping5442 watch5438 over1909 their flock4167 by night.3571

9 And, see,2400 the angel32 of the Lord2962 came2186 on them, and the glory1391 of the Lord2962 shone4034 round4034 about4034 them: and they were sore3173 afraid.5399

10 And the angel32 said2036 to them, Fear5399 not: for, behold,2400 I bring2097 you good2097 tidings2097 of great3173 joy,5479 which3748 shall be to all3956 people.2992

11 For to you is born5088 this4594 day4594 in the city4172 of David1138 a Savior,4990 which3739 is Christ5547 the Lord.2962

12 And this5124 shall be a sign4592 to you; You shall find2147 the babe1025 wrapped4683 in swaddling4683 clothes,4683 lying2749 in a manger.5336

13 And suddenly1810 there was with the angel32 a multitude4128 of the heavenly3770 host4756 praising134 God,2316 and saying,3004

14 Glory1391 to God2316 in the highest,5310 and on1909 earth1093 peace,1515 good2107 will2107 toward1722 men.444

15 And it came1096 to pass, as the angels32 were gone565 away565 from them into1519 heaven,3772 the shepherds4166 said2036 one240 to another,240 Let us now1211 go1330 even to Bethlehem,965 and see1492 this5124 thing4487 which3588 is come1096 to pass, which3588 the Lord2962 has made1107 known1107 to us.

16 And they came2064 with haste,4692 and found429 Mary,3137 and Joseph,2501 and the babe1025 lying2749 in a manger.5336

17 And when they had seen1492 it, they made1232 known1232 abroad1232 the saying4487 which3588 was told2980 them concerning4012 this5127 child.3813

18 And all3956 they that heard191 it wondered2296 at4012 those things which3588 were told2980 them by the shepherds.4166

19 But Mary3137 kept4933 all3956 these5023 things,4487 and pondered4820 them in her heart.2588

20 And the shepherds4166 returned,1994 glorifying1392 and praising134 God2316 for all3956 the things that they had heard191 and seen,1492 as it was told2980 to them.

21 And when3753 eight3638 days2250 were accomplished4130 for the circumcising4059 of the child,3813 his name3686 was called2564 JESUS,2424 which3588 was so named2564 of the angel32 before4253 he was conceived4815 in the womb.2836

22 And when3753 the days2250 of her purification2512 according2596 to the law3551 of Moses3475 were accomplished,4130 they brought321 him to Jerusalem,2414 to present3936 him to the Lord;2962

23 (As it is written1125 in the law3551 of the LORD,2962 Every3956 male730 that opens1272 the womb3388 shall be called2564 holy40 to the Lord;2962)

24 And to offer1325 a sacrifice2378 according2596 to that which is said2046 in the law3551 of the Lord,2962 A pair2201 of turtledoves,5167 or2228 two1417 young3502 pigeons.4058

25 And, behold,2400 there was a man444 in Jerusalem,2419 whose3739 name3686 was Simeon;4826 and the same3778 man444 was just1342 and devout,2126 waiting4327 for the consolation3874 of Israel:2474 and the Holy40 Ghost4151 was on him.

26 And it was revealed5537 to him by the Holy40 Ghost,4151 that he should not see1492 death,2288 before4250 2228 he had seen1492 the Lord's2962 Christ.5547

27 And he came2064 by the Spirit4151 into1519 the temple:2411 and when1722 3588 the parents1118 brought1521 in the child3813 Jesus,2424 to do4160 for him after2596 the custom1480 of the law,3551

28 Then2532 took1209 he him up in his arms,43 and blessed2127 God,2316 and said,2036

29 Lord,1203 now3568 let630 you your servant1401 depart630 in peace,1515 according2596 to your word:4487

30 For my3450 eyes3788 have seen1492 your salvation,4992

31 Which3739 you have prepared2090 before2596 the face4383 of all3956 people;2992

32 A light5457 to lighten602 the Gentiles,1484 and the glory1391 of your people2992 Israel.2474

33 And Joseph2501 and his mother3384 marveled2296 at1909 those3588 things which were spoken2980 of him.

34 And Simeon4826 blessed2127 them, and said2036 to Mary3137 his mother,3384 Behold,2400 this3778 child is set2749 for the fall4431 and rising386 again386 of many4183 in Israel;2474 and for a sign4592 which shall be spoken483 against;483

35 (Yes,1161 a sword4501 shall pierce1330 through1330 your own soul5590 also,2532) that the thoughts1261 of many4183 hearts2588 may be revealed.601

36 And there was one Anna,451 a prophetess,4398 the daughter2364 of Phanuel,5323 of the tribe5443 of Aser:768 she was of a great4183 age,2250 and had lived2198 with an husband435 seven2033 years2094 from her virginity;3932

37 And she was a widow5503 of about5613 fourscore3589 and four5064 years,2094 which3739 departed868 not from the temple,2411 but served3000 God with fastings3521 and prayers1162 night3571 and day.2250

38 And she coming2186 in that instant5610 gave437 thanks437 likewise437 to the Lord,2962 and spoke2980 of him to all3956 them that looked4327 for redemption3085 in Jerusalem.2419

39 And when5613 they had performed5055 all537 things according2596 to the law3551 of the Lord,2962 they returned5290 into1519 Galilee,1056 to their own city4172 Nazareth.3478

40 And the child3813 grew,837 and waxed2901 strong2901 in spirit,4151 filled4137 with wisdom:4678 and the grace5485 of God2316 was on him.

41 Now2532 his parents1118 went4198 to Jerusalem2419 every2596 year2094 at the feast1859 of the passover.3957

42 And when3753 he was twelve1427 years2094 old, they went305 up to Jerusalem2414 after2596 the custom1485 of the feast.1859

43 And when they had fulfilled5048 the days,2250 as they returned,5290 the child3816 Jesus2424 tarried5278 behind5278 in Jerusalem;2419 and Joseph2501 and his mother3384 knew1097 not of it.

44 But they, supposing3543 him to have been1511 in the company,4923 went2064 a day's2250 journey;3598 and they sought327 him among1722 their kinsfolk4773 and acquaintance.1110

45 And when they found2147 him not, they turned5290 back5290 again5290 to Jerusalem,2419 seeking2212 him.

46 And it came1096 to pass, that after3326 three5140 days2250 they found2147 him in the temple,2411 sitting2516 in the middle3319 of the doctors,1320 both2532 hearing191 them, and asking1905 them questions.1905

47 And all3956 that heard191 him were astonished1839 at1909 his understanding4907 and answers.612

48 And when they saw1492 him, they were amazed:1605 and his mother3384 said2036 to him, Son,5043 why5101 have you thus3779 dealt4160 with us? behold,2400 your father3962 and I have sought2212 you sorrowing.3600

49 And he said2036 to them, How5101 is it that you sought2212 me? knew1492 you not that I must1163 be about1722 my Father's3962 business?

50 And they understood4920 not the saying4487 which3739 he spoke2980 to them.

51 And he went2597 down2597 with them, and came2064 to Nazareth,3478 and was subject5293 to them: but his mother3384 kept1301 all3956 these5023 sayings4487 in her heart.2588

52 And Jesus2424 increased4298 in wisdom4678 and stature,2244 and in favor5485 with God2316 and man.444

1 Now1161 in the fifteenth4003 year2094 of the reign2231 of Tiberius5086 Caesar,2541 Pontius4194 Pilate4091 being governor2230 of Judaea,2449 and Herod2264 being tetrarch5075 of Galilee,1056 and his brother80 Philip5376 tetrarch5075 of Ituraea2484 and of the region5561 of Trachonitis,5139 and Lysanias3078 the tetrarch5075 of Abilene,9

2 Annas452 and Caiaphas2533 being1909 the high749 priests,749 the word4487 of God2316 came1096 to John2491 the son5207 of Zacharias2197 in the wilderness.2048

3 And he came2064 into1519 all3956 the country4066 about4066 Jordan,2446 preaching2784 the baptism908 of repentance3341 for the remission859 of sins;266

4 As it is written1125 in the book976 of the words3056 of Esaias2268 the prophet,4396 saying,3004 The voice5456 of one crying994 in the wilderness,2048 Prepare2090 you the way3598 of the Lord,2962 make4160 his paths5147 straight.2117

5 Every3956 valley5327 shall be filled,4137 and every3956 mountain3735 and hill1015 shall be brought5013 low;5013 and the crooked4646 shall be made1519 straight,2117 and the rough5138 ways3598 shall be made1519 smooth;3006

6 And all3956 flesh4561 shall see3700 the salvation4992 of God.2316

7 Then3767 said3004 he to the multitude3793 that came1607 forth1607 to be baptized907 of him, O generation1081 of vipers,2191 who5101 has warned5263 you to flee5343 from the wrath3709 to come?3195

8 Bring4160 forth4160 therefore3767 fruits2590 worthy514 of repentance,3341 and begin756 not to say3004 within1722 yourselves,1438 We have2192 Abraham11 to our father:3962 for I say3004 to you, That God2316 is able1410 of these5130 stones3037 to raise1453 up children5043 to Abraham.11

9 And now2235 also2532 the ax513 is laid2749 to the root4491 of the trees:1186 every3956 tree1186 therefore3767 which brings4160 not forth4160 good2570 fruit2590 is hewn1581 down,1581 and cast906 into1519 the fire.4442

10 And the people3793 asked1905 him, saying,3004 What5101 shall we do4160 then?3767

11 He answers611 and said3004 to them, He that has2192 two1417 coats,5509 let him impart3330 to him that has2192 none;3361 and he that has2192 meat,1033 let him do4160 likewise.3668

12 Then1161 came2064 also2532 publicans5057 to be baptized,907 and said2036 to him, Master,1320 what5101 shall we do?4160

13 And he said2036 to them, Exact4238 no3367 more4119 than3844 that which is appointed1299 you.

14 And the soldiers4754 likewise2532 demanded1905 of him, saying,3004 And what5101 shall we do?4160 And he said2036 to them, Do1286 violence1286 to no3367 man,3367 neither3366 accuse4811 any falsely; and be content714 with your5216 wages.3800

15 And as the people2992 were in expectation,4328 and all3956 men mused1260 in their hearts2588 of John,2491 whether3379 he were the Christ,5547 or not;

16 John2491 answered,611 saying3004 to them all,537 I indeed3303 baptize907 you with water;5204 but one mightier2478 than I comes,2064 the lace2438 of whose3739 shoes5266 I am1510 not worthy2425 to unloose:3089 he shall baptize907 you with the Holy40 Ghost4151 and with fire:4442

17 Whose3739 fan4425 is in his hand,5495 and he will thoroughly1245 purge1245 his floor,257 and will gather4863 the wheat4621 into1519 his garner;596 but the chaff892 he will burn2618 with fire4442 unquenchable.762

18 And many4183 other2087 things in his exhortation3870 preached2097 he to the people.2992

19 But Herod2264 the tetrarch,5076 being reproved1651 by him for Herodias2266 his brother80 Philip's5376 wife,1135 and for all3956 the evils4190 which3739 Herod2264 had done,4160

20 Added4369 yet2596 this5124 above1909 all,3956 that he shut2623 up John2491 in prison.5438

21 Now1161 when1722 3588 all537 the people2992 were baptized,907 it came1096 to pass, that Jesus2424 also2532 being baptized,907 and praying,4336 the heaven3772 was opened,455

22 And the Holy40 Ghost4151 descended2597 in a bodily4984 shape1491 like5616 a dove4058 on him, and a voice5456 came1096 from heaven,3772 which said,3004 You are1488 my beloved27 Son;5207 in you I am well2106 pleased.2106

23 And Jesus2424 himself846 began756 to be about5616 thirty5144 years2094 of age, being5607 (as was supposed)3543 the son5207 of Joseph,2501 which was the son of Heli,2242

4

1 And Jesus2424 being full4134 of the Holy40 Ghost4151 returned5290 from Jordan,2446 and was led71 by the Spirit4151 into1519 the wilderness,2048

2 Being forty5062 days2250 tempted3985 of the devil.1228 And in those1565 days2250 he did eat5315 nothing:3762 and when they were ended,4931 he afterward5305 hungry.3983

3 And the devil1228 said2036 to him, If1487 you be the Son5207 of God,2316 command2036 this5129 stone3037 that it be made1096 bread.740

4 And Jesus2424 answered611 him, saying,3004 It is written,1125 That man444 shall not live2198 by bread740 alone,3441 but by every3956 word4487 of God.2316

5 And the devil,1228 taking321 him up into1519 an high5308 mountain,3735 showed1166 to him all3956 the kingdoms932 of the world3625 in a moment4743 of time.5550

6 And the devil1228 said2036 to him, All537 this5026 power1849 will I give1325 you, and the glory1391 of them: for that is delivered3860 to me; and to whomsoever3739 1437 I will2309 I give1325 it.

7 If1437 you therefore3767 will worship4352 1799 me, all3956 shall be yours.4675

8 And Jesus2424 answered611 and said2036 to him, Get5217 you behind3694 me, Satan:4567 for it is written,1125 You shall worship4352 the Lord2962 your God,2316 and him only3441 shall you serve.3000

9 And he brought71 him to Jerusalem,2419 and set2476 him on1909 a pinnacle4419 of the temple,2411 and said2036 to him, If1487 you be the Son5207 of God,2316 cast906 yourself4572 down2736 from hence:1782

10 For it is written,1125 He shall give his angels32 charge1781 over4012 you, to keep1314 you:

11 And in their hands5495 they shall bear142 you up, lest3379 at3379 any3379 time3379 you dash4350 your foot4228 against4314 a stone.3037

12 And Jesus2424 answering611 said2036 to him, It is said,2046 You shall not tempt1598 the Lord2962 your God.2316

13 And when the devil1228 had ended4931 all3956 the temptation,3986 he departed868 from him for a season.2540

14 And Jesus2424 returned5290 in the power1411 of the Spirit4151 into1519 Galilee:1056 and there went1831 out a fame5345 of him through2596 all3650 the region4066 round4066 about.4066

15 And he taught2258 1321 in their synagogues,4864 being glorified1392 of all.3956

16 And he came2064 to Nazareth,3478 where3757 he had been brought5142 up: and, as his custom3588 1486 was, he went1525 into1519 the synagogue4864 on1722 the sabbath4521 day,2250 and stood450 up for to read.314

17 And there was delivered1929 to him the book975 of the prophet4396 Esaias.2268 And when he had opened380 the book,975 he found2147 the place5117 where3757 it was written,1125

18 The Spirit4151 of the Lord2962 is on me, because3739 1752 he has anointed5548 me to preach2097 the gospel2097 to the poor;4434 he has sent649 me to heal2390 the brokenhearted,4937 2588 to preach2784 deliverance859 to the captives,164 and recovering309 of sight309 to the blind,5185 to set649 at1722 liberty859 them that are bruised,2352

19 To preach2784 the acceptable1184 year1763 of the Lord.2962

20 And he closed4428 the book,975 and he gave591 it again591 to the minister,5257 and sat2523 down.2523 And the eyes3788 of all3956 them that were in the synagogue4864 were fastened816 on him.

21 And he began756 to say3004 to them, This4594 day4594 is this3778 scripture1124 fulfilled4137 in your5216 ears.3775

22 And all3956 bore3140 him witness,3140 and wondered2296 at1909 the gracious5485 words3056 which3588 proceeded1607 out of his mouth.4750 And they said,3004 Is not this3778 Joseph's2501 son?5207

23 And he said2036 to them, You will surely3843 say2046 to me this5026 proverb,3850 Physician,2395 heal2323 yourself:4572 whatever3745 we have heard191 done1096 in Capernaum,2584 do4160 also2532 here5602 in your country.3968

24 And he said,2036 Truly 281I say3004 to you, No3762 prophet4396 is accepted1184 in his own country.3968

25 But I tell3004 you of a truth,225 many4183 widows5503 were in Israel2474 in the days2250 of Elias,2243 when3753 the heaven3772 was shut2808 up three5140 years2094 and six1803 months,3376 when5613 great3173 famine3042 was throughout1909 all3956 the land;1095

26 But to none3762 of them was Elias2243 sent,3992 save1508 to Sarepta,4558 a city of Sidon,4605 to a woman1135 that was a widow.5503

27 And many4183 lepers3015 were in Israel2474 in the time1909 of Eliseus1666 the prophet;4396 and none3762 of them was cleansed,2511 saving1508 Naaman3497 the Syrian.4948

28 And all3956 they in the synagogue,4864 when they heard191 these5023 things, were filled4130 with wrath,2372

29 And rose450 up, and thrust1544 him out of the city,4172 and led71 him to the brow3790 of the hill3735 where on1909 3739 their city4172 was built,3618 that they might cast2630 him down2630 headlong.2630

30 But he passing1330 through1223 the middle3319 of them went4198 his way,

31 And came2718 down2718 to Capernaum,2584 a city4172 of Galilee,1056 and taught2258 1321 them on1722 the sabbath4521 days.

32 And they were astonished1605 at1909 his doctrine:1322 for his word3056 was with power.1849

33 And in the synagogue4864 there was a man,444 which had2192 a spirit4151 of an unclean169 devil,1140 and cried349 out with a loud3173 voice,5456

34 Saying,3004 Let1439 us alone;1439 what5101 have we to do with you, you Jesus2424 of Nazareth?3478 are you come2064 to destroy622 us? I know1492 you who5101 you are;1488 the Holy40 One of God.2316

35 And Jesus2424 rebuked2008 him, saying,3004 Hold5392 your peace,5392 and come1831 out of him. And when the devil1140 had thrown4496 him in the middle,3319 he came1831 out of him, and hurt984 him not.

36 And they were all3956 amazed,1096 2285 and spoke4814 among4314 themselves,240 saying,3004 What5101 a word3056 is this!3778 for with authority1849 and power1411 he commands2004 the unclean169 spirits,4151 and they come1831 out.

37 And the fame2279 of him went1607 out into1519 every3956 place5117 of the country4066 round4066 about.4066

38 And he arose450 out of the synagogue,4864 and entered1525 into1519 Simon's4613 house.3614 And Simon's4613 wife's3994 mother3994 was taken4912 with a great3173 fever;4446 and they sought2065 him for her.

39 And he stood2186 over1883 her, and rebuked2008 the fever;4446 and it left863 her: and immediately3916 she arose450 and ministered1247 to them.

40 Now1161 when the sun2246 was setting,1416 all3956 they that had2192 any sick770 with divers4164 diseases3554 brought71 them to him; and he laid2007 his hands5495 on2007 every1538 one1520 of them, and healed2323 them.

41 And devils1140 also2532 came1831 out of many,4183 crying2896 out, and saying,3004 You are1488 Christ5547 the Son5207 of God.2316 And he rebuking2008 them suffered1439 them not to speak:2980 for they knew that he was Christ.5547

42 And when it was day,2250 he departed1831 and went4198 into1519 a desert2048 place:5117 and the people3793 sought2212 him, and came2064 to him, and stayed2722 him, that he should not depart4198 from them.

43 And he said2036 to them, I must1163 preach2097 the kingdom932 of God2316 to other2087 cities4172 also:2532 for therefore1519 5124 am I sent.649

44 And he preached2784 in the synagogues4864 of Galilee.1056

5

1 And it came1096 to pass, that, as the people3793 pressed1945 on him to hear191 the word3056 of God,2316 he stood2476 by the lake3041 of Gennesaret,1082

2 And saw1492 two1417 ships4143 standing2476 by the lake:3041 but the fishermen231 were gone576 out of them, and were washing637 their nets.1350

3 And he entered1684 into1519 one1520 of the ships,4143 which3739 was Simon's,4613 and prayed2065 him that he would thrust1877 out a little3641 from the land.1095 And he sat2523 down,2523 and taught1321 the people3793 out of the ship.4143

4 Now1161 when5613 he had left3973 speaking,2980 he said2036 to Simon,4613 Launch1877 out into1519 the deep,899 and let5465 down5465 your5216 nets1350 for a draught.61

5 And Simon4613 answering611 said2036 to him, Master,1988 we have toiled2872 all3650 the night,3571 and have taken2983 nothing:3762 nevertheless1161 at1909 your word4487 I will let5465 down5465 the net.1350

6 And when they had this5124 done,4160 they enclosed4788 a great4183 multitude4128 of fishes:2486 and their net1350 broke.1284

7 And they beckoned2656 to their partners,3353 which3588 were in the other2087 ship,4143 that they should come2064 and help4815 them. And they came,2064 and filled4130 both297 the ships,4143 so5620 that they began to sink.1036

8 When Simon4613 Peter4074 saw1492 it, he fell4363 down at4363 Jesus'2424 knees,1119 saying,3004 Depart1831 from me; for I am1510 a sinful268 man,435 O Lord.2962

9 For he was astonished,4023 2285 and all3956 that were with him, at1909 the draught61 of the fishes2486 which3739 they had taken:4815

10 And so3668 was also2532 James,2385 and John,2491 the sons5207 of Zebedee,2199 which3739 were partners2844 with Simon.4613 And Jesus2424 said2036 to Simon,4613 Fear5399 not; from now on3568 you shall catch2221 men.444

11 And when they had brought2609 their ships4143 to land,1095 they forsook863 all,537 and followed190 him.

12 And it came1096 to pass, when1722 3588 he was in a certain1520 city,4172 behold2400 a man435 full4134 of leprosy:3014 who seeing1492 Jesus2424 fell4098 on1909 his face,4383 and sought1189 him, saying,3004 Lord,2962 if1437 you will,2309 you can1410 make2511 me clean.2511

13 And he put1614 forth1614 his hand,5495 and touched680 him, saying,2036 I will:2309 be you clean.2511 And immediately2112 the leprosy3014 departed565 from him.

14 And he charged3853 him to tell2036 no3367 man:3367 but go,565 and show1166 yourself4572 to the priest,2409 and offer4374 for your cleansing,2512 according as Moses3475 commanded,4367 for a testimony3142 to them.

15 But so much3123 the more3123 went1330 there a fame3056 abroad1330 of him: and great4183 multitudes3793 came4905 together4905 to hear,191 and to be healed2323 by him of their infirmities.769

16 And he withdrew5298 himself into1722 the wilderness,2048 and prayed.4336

17 And it came1096 to pass on1722 a certain1520 day,2250 as he was teaching,1321 that there were Pharisees5330 and doctors3547 of the law3547 sitting2521 by, which3739 were come2064 out of every3956 town2968 of Galilee,1056 and Judaea,2449 and Jerusalem:2419 and the power1411 of the Lord2962 was present to heal2390 them.

18 And, behold,2400 men435 brought5342 in a bed2825 a man444 which3739 was taken with a palsy:3886 and they sought2212 means to bring1533 him in, and to lay5087 him before1799 him.

19 And when they could not find2147 by what4169 way they might bring1533 him in because1223 of the multitude,3793 they went305 on the housetop,1430 and let2524 him down2524 through1223 the tiling2766 with his couch2826 into1519 the middle3319 before1715 Jesus.2424

20 And when he saw1492 their faith,4102 he said2036 to him, Man,444 your sins266 are forgiven863 you.

21 And the scribes1122 and the Pharisees5330 began756 to reason,1260 saying,3004 Who5101 is this3778 which3739 speaks2980 blasphemies?988 Who5101 can1410 forgive863 sins,266 but God2316 alone?3441

22 But when Jesus2424 perceived1921 their thoughts,1261 he answering611 said2036 to them, What5101 reason1260 you in your5216 hearts?2588

23 Whether5101 is easier,2123 to say,2036 Your sins266 be forgiven863 you; or2228 to say,2036 Rise1453 up and walk?4043

24 But that you may know1492 that the Son5207 of man444 has2192 power1849 on earth1093 to forgive863 sins,266 (he said2036 to the sick3885 of the palsy,3886) I say3004 to you, Arise,1453 and take142 up your couch,2826 and go4198 into1519 your4675 house.3624

25 And immediately3916 he rose450 up before1799 them, and took142 up that where on1909 3739 he lay,2621 and departed565 to his own house,3624 glorifying1392 God.2316

26 And they were all537 amazed,1611 2983 and they glorified1392 God,2316 and were filled4130 with fear,5401 saying,3004 We have seen1492 strange3861 things to day.4594

27 And after3326 these5023 things he went1831 forth,1831 and saw2300 a publican,5057 named3686 Levi,3018 sitting2521 at1909 the receipt5058 of custom:5058 and he said2036 to him, Follow190 me.

28 And he left2641 all,537 rose450 up, and followed190 him.

29 And Levi3018 made4160 him a great3173 feast1403 in his own house:3614 and there was a great4183 company3793 of publicans5057 and of others243 that sat2621 down2621 with them.

30 But their scribes1122 and Pharisees5330 murmured1111 against4314 his disciples,3101 saying,3004 Why1302 do you eat2068 and drink4095 with publicans5057 and sinners?268

31 And Jesus2424 answering611 said2036 to them, They that are whole5198 need2192 5532 not a physician;2395 but they that are sick.2192 2560

32 I came2064 not to call2564 the righteous,1342 but sinners268 to repentance.3341

33 And they said2036 to him, Why1302 do the disciples3101 of John2491 fast3522 often,4437 and make4160 prayers,1162 and likewise3668 the disciples of the Pharisees;5330 but your4674 eat2068 and drink?4095

34 And he said2036 to them, Can1410 you make4160 the children5207 of the bridal chamber3567 fast,3522 while1722 3739 the bridegroom3566 is with them?

35 But the days2250 will come,2064 when3752 the bridegroom3566 shall be taken522 away851 from them, and then5119 shall they fast3522 in those1565 days.2250

36 And he spoke3004 also2532 a parable3850 to them; No3762 man3762 puts1911 a piece1915 of a new2537 garment2440 on an old;3820 if1490 otherwise,1490 then both2532 the new2537 makes4977 a rent,4977 and the piece1915 that was taken out of the new2537 agrees4856 not with the old.3820

37 And no3762 man3762 puts906 new3501 wine3631 into1519 old3820 bottles;779 else1490 the new3501 wine3631 will burst4486 the bottles,779 and be spilled,1632 and the bottles779 shall perish.622

38 But new3501 wine3631 must be put906 into1519 new2537 bottles;779 and both297 are preserved.4933

39 No3762 man3762 also2532 having drunk4095 old3820 wine straightway2112 desires2309 new:2537 for he said,3004 The old3820 is better.5543

6

1 And it came1096 to pass on1722 the second1207 sabbath4521 after1207 the first,1207 that he went1279 through1223 the corn4702 fields; and his disciples3101 plucked5089 the ears4719 of corn,4719 and did eat,2068 rubbing5597 them in their hands.5495

2 And certain5100 of the Pharisees5330 said2036 to them, Why5101 do4160 you that which3739 is not lawful1832 to do4160 on1722 the sabbath4521 days?

3 And Jesus2424 answering611 them said,2036 Have you not read314 so3761 much3761 as this,5124 what3739 David1138 did,4160 when3698 himself846 was an hungered,3983 and they which3739 were with him;

4 How5613 he went1525 into1519 the house3624 of God,2316 and did take2983 and eat5315 the show bread,740 4286 and gave1325 also2532 to them that were with him; which it is not lawful1832 to eat5315 but for the priests2409 alone?3441

5 And he said3004 to them, That the Son5207 of man444 is Lord2962 also2532 of the sabbath.4521

6 And it came1096 to pass also2532 on1722 another2087 sabbath,4521 that he entered1525 into1519 the synagogue4864 and taught:1321 and there1563 was a man444 whose2532 846 right1188 hand5495 was withered.3584

7 And the scribes1122 and Pharisees5330 watched3906 him, whether1487 he would heal2323 on1722 the sabbath4521 day; that they might find2147 an accusation2724 against him.

8 But he knew1492 their thoughts,1261 and said2036 to the man444 which3739 had2192 the withered3584 hand,5495 Rise1453 up, and stand2476 forth in the middle.3319 And he arose450 and stood2476 forth.

9 Then3767 said2036 Jesus2424 to them, I will ask1905 you one5100 thing; Is it lawful1832 on the sabbath4521 days to do15 good,15 or2228 to do2554 evil?2554 to save4982 life,5590 or2228 to destroy622 it?

10 And looking4017 round about4017 on them all,3956 he said2036 to the man,444 Stretch1614 forth1614 your hand.5495 And he did4160 so:3779 and his hand5495 was restored600 whole5199 as the other.243

11 And they were filled4130 with madness;454 and communed1255 one240 with another240 what5101 they might do4160 to Jesus.2424

12 And it came1096 to pass in those5025 days,2250 that he went1831 out into1519 a mountain3735 to pray,4336 and continued1273 all1273 night1273 in prayer4335 to God.2316

13 And when3753 it was day,2250 he called4377 to him his disciples:3101 and of them he chose1586 twelve,1427 whom3739 also2532 he named3687 apostles;652

14 Simon,4613 (whom3739 he also2532 named3687 Peter,4074) and Andrew406 his brother,80 James2385 and John,2491 Philip5376 and Bartholomew,918

15 Matthew3156 and Thomas,2381 James2385 the son of Alphaeus,256 and Simon4613 called2564 Zelotes,2208

16 And Judas2455 the brother of James,2385 and Judas2455 Iscariot,2469 which3739 also2532 was the traitor.4273

17 And he came2597 down2597 with them, and stood2476 in the plain,5117 3977 and the company3793 of his disciples,3101 and a great4183 multitude4128 of people2992 out of all3956 Judaea2449 and Jerusalem,2419 and from the sea3882 coast3882 of Tyre5184 and Sidon,4605 which3739 came2064 to hear191 him, and to be healed2390 of their diseases;3554

18 And they that were vexed3791 with unclean169 spirits:4151 and they were healed.2323

19 And the whole3956 multitude3793 sought2212 to touch680 him: for there went1831 virtue1411 out of him, and healed2390 them all.3956

20 And he lifted1869 up his eyes3788 on1519 his disciples,3101 and said,3004 Blessed3107 be you poor:4434 for yours5212 is the kingdom932 of God.2316

21 Blessed3107 are you that hunger3983 now:3568 for you shall be filled.5526 Blessed3107 are you that weep2799 now:3568 for you shall laugh.1070

22 Blessed3107 are you, when3752 men444 shall hate3404 you, and when3752 they shall separate873 you from their company, and shall reproach3679 you, and cast1544 out your5216 name3686 as evil,4190 for the Son5207 of man's444 sake.1752

23 Rejoice5463 you in that day,2250 and leap4640 for joy: for, behold,2400 your5216 reward3408 is great4183 in heaven:3772 for in the like5024 manner did4160 their fathers3962 to the prophets.4396

24 But woe3759 to you that are rich!4145 for you have received568 your5216 consolation.3874

25 Woe3759 to you that are full!1705 for you shall hunger.3983 Woe3759 to you that laugh1070 now!3568 for you shall mourn3996 and weep.2799

26 Woe3759 to you, when3752 all3956 men444 shall speak2036 well2573 of you! for so2596 5623 did4160 their fathers3962 to the false5578 prophets.5573

27 But I say3004 to you which hear,191 Love25 your5216 enemies,2190 do4160 good2573 to them which3588 hate3404 you,

28 Bless2127 them that curse2672 you, and pray4336 for them which spitefully1908 use1908 you.

29 And to him that smites5180 you on1909 the one cheek4600 offer3930 also2532 the other;243 and him that takes142 away142 your cloak2440 forbid2967 not to take your coat5509 also.2532

30 Give1325 to every3956 man that asks154 of you; and of him that takes142 away142 your goods4674 ask523 them not again.523

31 And as you would2309 that men444 should do4160 to you, do4160 you also2532 to them likewise.3668

32 For if1487 you love25 them which love25 you, what4169 thank5485 have2076 you? for sinners268 also2532 love25 those3588 that love25 them.

33 And if1437 you do good15 to them which do15 good15 to you, what4169 thank5485 have2076 you? for sinners268 also2532 do4160 even2532 the same.846

34 And if1437 you lend1155 to them of whom3739 you hope1679 to receive,618 what4169 thank5485 have2076 you? for sinners268 also2532 lend1155 to sinners,268 to receive618 as much2470 again.618

35 But love25 you your5216 enemies,2190 and do15 good,15 and lend,1155 hoping560 for nothing3367 again;560 and your5216 reward3408 shall be great,4183 and you shall be the children5207 of the Highest:5310 for he is kind5543 to the unthankful884 and to the evil.4190

36 Be you therefore3767 merciful,3629 as your5216 Father3962 also2532 is merciful.3629

37 Judge2919 not, and you shall not be judged:2919 condemn2613 not, and you shall not be condemned:2613 forgive,630 and you shall be forgiven:630

38 Give,1325 and it shall be given1325 to you; good2570 measure,3358 pressed4085 down, and shaken4531 together, and running5240 over,5240 shall men give1325 into1519 your5216 bosom.2859 For with the same846 measure3358 that you mete3354 with it shall be measured488 to you again.488

39 And he spoke2036 a parable3850 to them, Can1410 the blind5185 lead3594 the blind?5185 shall they not both297 fall4098 into1519 the ditch?999

40 The disciple3101 is not above5228 his master:1320 but every3956 one that is perfect2675 shall be as his master.1320

41 And why5101 behold991 you the mote2595 that is in your brother's80 eye,3788 but perceive2657 not the beam1385 that is in your2398 own2398 eye?3788

42 Either2228 how4459 can1410 you say3004 to your brother,80 Brother,80 let863 me pull1544 out the mote2595 that is in your4675 eye,3788 when you yourself846 behold991 not the beam1385 that is in your4675 own eye?3788 You hypocrite,5273 cast1544 out first4412 the beam1385 out of your4675 own eye,3788 and then5119 shall you see1227 clearly1227 to pull1544 out the mote2595 that is in your brother's80 eye.3788

43 For a good2570 tree1186 brings4160 not forth4160 corrupt4550 fruit;2590 neither3761 does a corrupt4550 tree1186 bring4160 forth4160 good2570 fruit.2590

44 For every1538 tree1186 is known1097 by his own2398 fruit.2590 For of thorns173 men do not gather4816 figs,4810 nor3761 of a bramble942 bush942 gather5166 they grapes.4718

45 A good18 man444 out of the good18 treasure2344 of his heart2588 brings4393 forth4393 that which is good;18 and an evil4190 man444 out of the evil4190 treasure2344 of his heart2588 brings4393 forth4393 that which is evil:4190 for of the abundance4051 of the heart2588 his mouth4750 speaks.2980

46 And why5101 call2564 you me, Lord,2962 Lord,2962 and do4160 not the things which3739 I say?3004

47 Whoever3956 3588 comes2064 to me, and hears191 my sayings,3056 and does4160 them, I will show5263 you to whom5101 he is like:3664

48 He is like3664 a man444 which3739 built3618 an house,3614 and dig4626 deep,2532 900 and laid5087 the foundation2310 on1909 a rock:4073 and when the flood4132 arose,1096 the stream4215 beat4366 vehemently4366 on that house,3614 and could2480 not shake4531 it: for it was founded2311 on a rock.4073

49 But he that hears,191 and does4160 not, is like3664 a man444 that without5565 a foundation2310 built3618 an house3614 on the earth;1093 against4366 which3739 the stream4215 did beat4366 vehemently,4366 and immediately2112 it fell;4098 and the ruin4485 of that house3614 was great.3173

7

1 Now1161 when1893 he had ended4137 all3956 his sayings4487 in the audience189 of the people,2992 he entered1525 into1519 Capernaum.2584

2 And a certain5100 centurion's1543 servant,1401 who3739 was dear1784 to him, was sick,2192 2560 and ready3195 to die.5053

3 And when he heard191 of Jesus,2424 he sent649 to him the elders4245 of the Jews,2453 beseeching2065 him that he would come2064 and heal1295 his servant.1401

4 And when they came3854 to Jesus,2424 they sought3870 him instantly,4705 saying,3004 That he was worthy514 for whom3739 he should do3930 this:5124

5 For he loves25 our nation,1484 and he has built3618 us a synagogue.4864

6 Then1161 Jesus2424 went4198 with them. And when he was now2235 not far3112 from the house,3614 the centurion1543 sent3992 friends5384 to him, saying3004 to him, Lord,2962 trouble4660 not yourself: for I am1510 not worthy2425 that you should enter1525 under5259 my roof:4721

7 Why1352 neither3761 thought I myself1683 worthy515 to come2064 to you: but say2036 in a word,3056 and my servant3816 shall be healed.2390

8 For I also2532 am1510 a man444 set5021 under5259 authority,1849 having2192 under5259 me soldiers,4757 and I say3004 to one,5129 Go,4198 and he goes;4198 and to another,243 Come,2064 and he comes;2064 and to my servant,1401 Do4160 this,5124 and he does4238 it.

9 When Jesus2424 heard191 these5023 things, he marveled2296 at him, and turned4762 him about,4762 and said2036 to the people3793 that followed190 him, I say3004 to you, I have not found2147 so5118 great5118 faith,4102 no,3761 not in Israel.2474

10 And they that were sent,3992 returning5290 to the house,3624 found2147 the servant1401 whole5198 that had been sick.770

11 And it came1096 to pass the day2250 after,1836 that he went4198 into1519 a city4172 called2564 Nain;3484 and many2425 of his disciples3101 went4848 with him, and much4183 people.3793

12 Now1161 when5613 he came1448 near1448 to the gate4439 of the city,4172 behold,2400 there was a dead2348 man carried1580 out, the only3439 son5207 of his mother,3384 and she was a widow:5503 and much2425 people3793 of the city4172 was with her.

13 And when the Lord2962 saw1492 her, he had compassion4697 on1909 her, and said2036 to her, Weep2799 not.

14 And he came4334 and touched680 the bier:4673 and they that bore941 him stood2476 still.2476 And he said,2036 Young3495 man,3495 I say3004 to you, Arise.1453

15 And he that was dead3498 sat339 up, and began756 to speak.2980 And he delivered1325 him to his mother.3384

16 And there came2983 a fear5401 on all:537 and they glorified1392 God,2316 saying,3004 That a great3173 prophet4396 is risen1453 up among1722 us; and, That God2316 has visited1980 his people.2992

17 And this3778 rumor3056 of him went1831 forth1831 throughout1722 all3650 Judaea,2449 and throughout1722 all3956 the region4066 round4066 about.4066

18 And the disciples3101 of John2491 showed518 him of all3956 these5130 things.

19 And John2491 calling4341 to him two1417 of his disciples3101 sent them to Jesus,2424 saying,3004 Are1488 you he that should come?2064 or2228 look4328 we for another?243

20 When the men435 were come3854 to him, they said,2036 John2491 Baptist910 has sent649 us to you, saying,3004 Are1488 you he that should come?2064 or2228 look4328 we for another?243

21 And in that same846 hour5610 he cured2323 many4183 of their infirmities3554 and plagues,3148 and of evil4190 spirits;4151 and to many4183 that were blind5185 he gave5483 sight.991

22 Then2532 Jesus2424 answering611 said2036 to them, Go4198 your way, and tell518 John2491 what3739 things you have seen1492 and heard;191 how3754 that the blind5185 see,308 the lame5560 walk,4043 the lepers3015 are cleansed,2511 the deaf2974 hear,191 the dead3498 are raised,1453 to the poor4434 the gospel2097 is preached.2097

23 And blessed is he, whoever3739 1437 shall not be offended4624 in me.

24 And when the messengers32 of John2491 were departed,565 he began756 to speak3004 to the people3793 concerning4012 John,2491 What5101 went1831 you out into1519 the wilderness2048 for to see?2300 A reed2563 shaken4531 with the wind?417

25 But what5101 went1831 you out for to see?1492 A man444 clothed294 in soft3120 raiment?2440 Behold,2400 they which are gorgeously1741 appareled,2441 and live5225 delicately,5172 are in kings'933 courts.

26 But what5101 went1831 you out for to see?1492 A prophet?4396 Yes,3483 I say3004 to you, and much4055 more4055 than a prophet.4396

27 This3778 is he, of whom3739 it is written,1125 Behold,2400 I send649 my messenger32 before4253 your face,4383 which3739 shall prepare2680 your way3598 before1715 you.

28 For I say3004 to you, Among1722 those that are born1084 of women1135 there is not a greater3187 prophet4396 than John2491 the Baptist:910 but he that is least3398 in the kingdom932 of God2316 is greater3187 than he.

29 And all3956 the people2992 that heard191 him, and the publicans,5057 justified1344 God,2316 being baptized907 with the baptism908 of John.2491

30 But the Pharisees5330 and lawyers3544 rejected114 the counsel1012 of God2316 against1519 themselves,1438 being not baptized907 of him.

31 And the Lord2962 said,2036 Whereunto5101 then3767 shall I liken3666 the men444 of this5026 generation?1074 and to what5101 are they like?3664

32 They are like3664 to children3813 sitting2521 in the marketplace,58 and calling4377 one240 to another,240 and saying,3004 We have piped832 to you, and you have not danced;3738 we have mourned2354 to you, and you have not wept.2799

33 For John2491 the Baptist910 came2064 neither3383 eating2068 bread740 nor3383 drinking4095 wine;3631 and you say,3004 He has2192 a devil.1140

34 The Son5207 of man444 is come2064 eating2068 and drinking;4095 and you say,3004 Behold2400 a gluttonous5314 man,444 and a drunkard,3630 a friend5384 of publicans5057 and sinners!268

35 But wisdom4678 is justified1344 of all3956 her children.5043

36 And one5100 of the Pharisees5330 desired2065 him that he would eat5315 with him. And he went1525 into1519 the Pharisee's5330 house,3614 and sat347 down347 to meat.

37 And, behold,2400 a woman1135 in the city,4172 which3748 was a sinner,268 when she knew1921 that Jesus sat345 at345 meat in the Pharisee's5330 house,3614 brought2865 an alabaster211 box211 of ointment,3464

38 And stood2476 at3844 his feet4228 behind3694 him weeping,2799 and began756 to wash1026 his feet4228 with tears,1144 and did wipe1591 them with the hairs2359 of her head,2776 and kissed2705 his feet,4228 and anointed218 them with the ointment.3464

39 Now1161 when the Pharisee5330 which3588 had bidden2564 him saw1492 it, he spoke2036 within1722 himself,1438 saying,3004 This3778 man, if1487 he were a prophet,4396 would have known1097 who5101 and what4217 manner4217 of woman1135 this3588 is that touches680 him: for she is a sinner.268

40 And Jesus2424 answering611 said2036 to him, Simon,4613 I have2192 somewhat5100 to say2036 to you. And he said,5346 Master,1320 say2036 on.

41 There was a certain5100 creditor1157 which had1510 two1417 debtors:5533 the one1520 owed3784 five4001 hundred4001 pence,1220 and the other2087 fifty.4004

42 And when they had2192 nothing3361 to pay,591 he frankly5483 forgave5483 them both.297 Tell2036 me therefore,3767 which5101 of them will love25 him most?4119

43 Simon4613 answered611 and said,2036 I suppose5274 that he, to whom3739 he forgave5483 most.4119 And he said2036 to him, You have rightly3723 judged.2919

44 And he turned4762 to the woman,1135 and said5346 to Simon,4613 See991 you this5026 woman?1135 I entered1525 into1519 your4675 house,3614 you gave1325 me no3756 water5204 for my feet:4228 but she has washed1026 my feet4228 with tears,1144 and wiped1591 them with the hairs2359 of her head.2776

45 You gave1325 me no3756 kiss:5370 but this3778 woman since575 the time I came1525 in has not ceased1257 to kiss2705 my feet.4228

46 My head2776 with oil1637 you did not anoint:218 but this3778 woman has anointed218 my feet4228 with ointment.3464

47 Why3739 5484 I say3004 to you, Her sins,266 which3588 are many,4183 are forgiven;863 for she loved25 much:4183 but to whom3739 little3641 is forgiven,863 the same loves25 little.3641

48 And he said2036 to her, Your sins266 are forgiven.863

49 And they that sat4873 at345 meat with him began756 to say3004 within1722 themselves,1438 Who5101 is this3778 that forgives863 sins266 also?2532

50 And he said2036 to the woman,1135 Your faith4102 has saved4982 you; go4198 in peace.1515

8

1 And it came1096 to pass afterward,2517 that he went1353 throughout2596 every2596 city4172 and village,2968 preaching2784 and showing the glad2097 tidings2097 of the kingdom932 of God:2316 and the twelve1427 were with him,

2 And certain5100 women,1135 which3739 had been healed2390 of evil4190 spirits4151 and infirmities,769 Mary3137 called2564 Magdalene,3094 out of whom3739 went1831 seven2033 devils,1140

3 And Joanna2489 the wife1135 of Chuza5529 Herod's2264 steward,2012 and Susanna,4677 and many4183 others,2087 which3748 ministered1247 to him of their substance.5224

4 And when much4183 people3793 were gathered4896 together,4896 and were come1975 to him out of every2596 city,4172 he spoke2036 by a parable:3850

5 A sower4687 went1831 out to sow4687 his seed:4703 and as he sowed,4687 some3588 3303 fell4098 by the way3598 side;3844 and it was trodden2662 down,2662 and the fowls4071 of the air3772 devoured2719 it.

6 And some2087 fell4098 on a rock;4073 and as soon as it was sprung5453 up, it withered3583 away, because1223 it lacked3361 2192 moisture.2429

7 And some2087 fell4098 among1722 3319 thorns;173 and the thorns173 sprang4855 up with it, and choked638 it.

8 And other2087 fell4098 on1519 good18 ground,1093 and sprang5453 up, and bore4160 fruit2590 an hundred times.1542 And when he had said3004 these5023 things, he cried,5455 He that has2192 ears3775 to hear,191 let him hear.191

9 And his disciples3101 asked1905 him, saying,3004 What5101 might this3778 parable3850 be?

10 And he said,2036 To you it is given1325 to know1097 the mysteries3466 of the kingdom932 of God:2316 but to others3062 in parables;3850 that seeing991 they might not see,991 and hearing191 they might not understand.4920

11 Now1161 the parable3850 is this:3778 The seed4703 is the word3056 of God.2316

12 Those3588 by the way3598 side3844 are they that hear;191 then1534 comes2064 the devil,1228 and takes142 away142 the word3056 out of their hearts,2588 lest2443 3361 they should believe4100 and be saved.4982

13 They on1909 the rock4073 are they, which,3739 when3752 they hear,191 receive1209 the word3056 with joy;5479 and these3778 have2192 no3756 root,4491 which3739 for a while2540 believe,4100 and in time2540 of temptation3986 fall868 away.868

14 And that which fell4098 among1519 thorns173 are they, which, when they have heard,191 go4198 forth,4198 and are choked4846 with cares3308 and riches4149 and pleasures2237 of this3588 life,979 and bring5052 no3756 fruit5062 to perfection.5052

15 But that on1722 the good2570 ground1093 are they, which3748 in an honest2570 and good18 heart,2588 having heard191 the word,3056 keep2722 it, and bring2592 forth fruit2592 with patience.5281

16 No3762 man,3762 when he has lighted681 a candle,3088 covers2572 it with a vessel,4632 or2228 puts5087 it under5270 a bed;2825 but sets2007 it on1909 a candlestick,3087 that they which enter1531 in may see991 the light.5457

17 For nothing3756 is secret,2927 that shall not be made1096 manifest;5318 neither3761 any thing hid,614 that shall not be known1097 and come2064 abroad.1519 5318

18 Take heed991 therefore3767 how4459 you hear:191 for whoever3739 302 has,2192 to him shall be given;1325 and whoever3739 302 has2192 not, from him shall be taken142 even2532 that which3739 he seems1380 to have.2192

19 Then1161 came3854 to him his mother3384 and his brothers,80 and could1410 not come4940 at1519 him for the press.3793

20 And it was told518 him by certain which said,3004 Your mother3384 and your brothers80 stand2476 without,1854 desiring2309 to see1492 you.

21 And he answered611 and said2036 to them, My mother3384 and my brothers80 are these3778 which3588 hear191 the word3056 of God,2316 and do4160 it.

22 Now2532 it came1096 to pass on1722 a certain1520 day,2250 that he went1684 into1519 a ship4143 with his disciples:3101 and he said2036 to them, Let us go1330 over1330 to the other4008 side4008 of the lake.3041 And they launched321 forth.321

23 But as they sailed4126 he fell asleep:879 and there came2597 down2597 a storm2978 of wind417 on1519 the lake;3041 and they were filled4845 with water, and were in jeopardy.2793

24 And they came4334 to him, and awoke1326 him, saying,3004 Master,1988 master,1988 we perish.622 Then1161 he arose,1453 and rebuked2008 the wind417 and the raging2830 of the water:5204 and they ceased,3973 and there was a calm.1055

25 And he said2036 to them, Where4226 is your5216 faith?4102 And they being afraid5399 wondered,2296 saying3004 one240 to another,240 What5101 686 manner686 of man is this!3778 for he commands2004 even2532 the winds417 and water,5204 and they obey5219 him.

26 And they arrived2668 at1519 the country5561 of the Gadarenes,1046 which3748 is over495 against495 Galilee.1056

27 And when he went1831 forth1831 to land,1095 there met5221 him out of the city4172 a certain5100 man,435 which3739 had2192 devils1140 long2425 time,5550 and ware1737 no3756 clothes,2440 neither2532 3756 stayed3306 in any house,3614 but in the tombs.3418

28 When he saw1492 Jesus,2424 he cried349 out, and fell4363 down before4363 him, and with a loud3173 voice5456 said,2036 What5101 have I to do with you, Jesus,2424 you Son5207 of God2316 most5310 high?5310 I beseech1189 you, torment928 me not.

29 (For he had commanded3853 the unclean169 spirit4151 to come1831 out of the man.444 For oftentimes4183 5550 it had caught4884 him: and he was kept5442 bound1196 with chains254 and in fetters;3976 and he broke1284 the bands,1199 and was driven1643 of the devil1142 into1519 the wilderness.2048)

30 And Jesus2424 asked1905 him, saying,3004 What5101 is your name?3686 And he said,2036 Legion:3003 because3754 many4183 devils1140 were entered1525 into1519 him.

31 And they sought3870 him that he would not command2004 them to go565 out into1519 the deep.12

32 And there1563 was there an herd34 of many2425 swine5519 feeding1006 on1722 the mountain:3735 and they sought3870 him that he would suffer2010 them to enter1525 into1519 them. And he suffered2010 them.

33 Then1161 went1831 the devils1140 out of the man,444 and entered1525 into1519 the swine:5519 and the herd34 ran3729 violently down2596 a steep2911 place into1519 the lake,3041 and were choked.638

34 When they that fed1006 them saw1492 what3588 was done,1096 they fled,5343 and went565 and told518 it in the city4172 and in the country.68

35 Then1161 they went1831 out to see1492 what3588 was done;1096 and came2064 to Jesus,2424 and found2147 the man,444 out of whom3739 the devils1140 were departed,1831 sitting2521 at3844 the feet4228 of Jesus,2424 clothed,2439 and in his right4993 mind:4993 and they were afraid.5399

36 They also2532 which saw1492 it told518 them by what4459 means4459 he that was possessed1139 of the devils1139 was healed.4982

37 Then2532 the whole537 multitude4128 of the country4066 of the Gadarenes1046 round4066 about4066 sought2065 him to depart565 from them; for they were taken4912 with great3173 fear:5401 and he went1684 up into1519 the ship,4143 and returned5290 back5290 again.5290

38 Now1161 the man435 out of whom3739 the devils1140 were departed1831 sought1189 him that he might be with him: but Jesus2424 sent630 him away,630 saying,3004

39 Return5290 to your4675 own house,3624 and show1334 how3745 great3745 things God2316 has done4160 to you. And he went565 his way,3598 and published2784 throughout2596 the whole3650 city4172 how3745 great3745 things Jesus2424 had done4160 to him.

40 And it came1096 to pass, that, when1722 3588 Jesus2424 was returned,5290 the people3793 gladly2234 received588 him: for they were all3956 waiting4328 for him.

41 And, behold,2400 there came2064 a man435 named3686 Jairus,2383 and he was a ruler758 of the synagogue:4864 and he fell4098 down at3844 Jesus'2424 feet,4228 and sought3870 him that he would come1525 into1519 his house:3624

42 For he had1510 one only3439 daughter,2364 about5613 twelve1427 years2094 of age, and she lay a dying.599 But as he went5217 the people3793 thronged4846 him.

43 And a woman1135 having5607 1722 an issue4511 of blood129 twelve1427 years,2094 which3748 had spent4321 all3956 her living979 on physicians,2395 neither3756 could2480 be healed2323 of any,3762

44 Came4334 behind3693 him, and touched680 the border2899 of his garment:2440 and immediately3916 her issue4511 of blood129 stanched.2476

45 And Jesus2424 said,2036 Who5101 touched680 me? When all3956 denied,720 Peter4074 and they that were with him said,2036 Master,1988 the multitude3793 throng4912 you and press598 you, and say2036 you, Who5101 touched680 me?

46 And Jesus2424 said,2036 Somebody5100 has touched680 me: for I perceive1097 that virtue1411 is gone1831 out of me.

47 And when the woman1135 saw1492 that she was not hid,2990 she came2064 trembling,5141 and falling4363 down before4363 him, she declared518 to him before1799 all3956 the people2992 for what3739 cause156 she had touched680 him, and how5613 she was healed2390 immediately.3916

48 And he said2036 to her, Daughter,2364 be of good comfort:2293 your faith4102 has made4982 you whole;4982 go4198 in peace.1515

49 While he yet2089 spoke,2980 there comes2064 one5100 from the ruler752 of the synagogue's752 house, saying3004 to him, Your daughter2364 is dead;2348 trouble4660 not the Master.1320

50 But when Jesus2424 heard191 it, he answered611 him, saying,3004 Fear5399 not: believe4100 only,3440 and she shall be made4982 whole.4982

51 And when he came1525 into1519 the house,3614 he suffered863 no3762 man3762 to go1525 in, save1508 Peter,4074 and James,2385 and John,2491 and the father3962 and the mother3384 of the maiden.3816

52 And all3956 wept,2799 and bewailed2875 her: but he said,2036 Weep2799 not; she is not dead,599 but sleeps.2518

53 And they laughed2606 him to scorn,2606 knowing1492 that she was dead.599

54 And he put1544 them all3956 out, and took2902 her by the hand,5495 and called,5455 saying,3004 Maid,3816 arise.1453

55 And her spirit4151 came1994 again,1994 and she arose450 straightway:3916 and he commanded1299 to give1325 her meat.5315

56 And her parents1118 were astonished:1839 but he charged3853 them that they should tell2036 no3367 man3367 what3588 was done.1096

9

1 Then1161 he called4779 his twelve1427 disciples3101 together,4779 and gave1325 them power1411 and authority1849 over1909 all3956 devils,1140 and to cure2323 diseases.3554

2 And he sent649 them to preach2784 the kingdom932 of God,2316 and to heal2390 the sick.770

3 And he said2036 to them, Take142 nothing3367 for your3588 journey,3598 neither3383 staves,4464 nor3383 money,4082 neither3383 bread,740 neither3383 money;694 neither3383 have2192 two1417 coats5509 apiece.303

4 And whatever3739 302 house3614 you enter1525 into,1519 there1563 abide,3306 and there1564 depart.1831

5 And whoever3745 302 will not receive1209 you, when you go1831 out of that city,4172 shake660 off660 the very2532 dust2868 from your5216 feet4228 for a testimony3142 against1909 them.

6 And they departed,1831 and went1330 through2596 the towns,2968 preaching2097 the gospel,2097 and healing2323 every3837 where.3837

7 Now1161 Herod2264 the tetrarch5076 heard191 of all3956 that was done1096 by him: and he was perplexed,1280 because1223 that it was said3004 of some,5100 that John2491 was risen1453 from the dead;3498

8 And of some,5100 that Elias2243 had appeared;5316 and of others,243 that one1520 of the old744 prophets4396 was risen450 again.450

9 And Herod2264 said,2036 John2491 have I beheaded:607 but who5101 is this,3778 of whom3739 I hear191 such3634 things? And he desired2212 to see1492 him.

10 And the apostles,652 when they were returned,5290 told1334 him all3745 that they had done.4160 And he took3880 them, and went5298 aside5298 privately2596 2398 into1519 a desert2048 place5117 belonging to the city4172 called2564 Bethsaida.966

11 And the people,3793 when they knew1097 it, followed190 him: and he received1209 them, and spoke2980 to them of the kingdom932 of God,2316 and healed2390 them that had2192 need5532 of healing.2322

12 And when the day2250 began756 to wear2827 away, then1161 came4334 the twelve,1427 and said2036 to him, Send630 the multitude3793 away,630 that they may go565 into1519 the towns2968 and country68 round2943 about,2945 and lodge,2647 and get2147 victuals:1979 for we are here5602 in a desert2048 place.5117

13 But he said2036 to them, Give1325 you them to eat.5315 And they said,2036 We have2076 no3756 more4119 but five4002 loaves740 and two1417 fishes;2486 except1509 we should go4198 and buy59 meat1033 for all3956 this5126 people.2992

14 For they were about5616 five4000 thousand4000 men.435 And he said2036 to his disciples,3101 Make2625 them sit2625 down2625 by fifties4004 in a company.2828

15 And they did4160 so,3779 and made347 them all537 sit347 down.347

16 Then1161 he took2983 the five4002 loaves740 and the two1417 fishes,2486 and looking308 up to heaven,3772 he blessed2127 them, and broke,2622 and gave1325 to the disciples3101 to set3908 before3908 the multitude.3793

17 And they did eat,5315 and were all3956 filled:5526 and there was taken142 up of fragments2801 that remained4052 to them twelve1427 baskets.2894

18 And it came1096 to pass, as he was alone2651 praying,4336 his disciples3101 were with him: and he asked1905 them, saying,3004 Whom5101 say3004 the people3793 that I am?1511

19 They answering611 said,2036 John2491 the Baptist;910 but some243 say,2036 Elias;2243 and others243 say, that one5100 of the old744 prophets4396 is risen450 again.450

20 He said2036 to them, But whom5101 say3004 you that I am?1511 Peter4074 answering611 said,2036 The Christ5547 of God.2316

21 And he straightly charged2008 them, and commanded3853 them to tell2036 no3367 man3367 that thing;

22 Saying,2036 The Son5207 of man444 must1163 suffer3958 many4183 things, and be rejected593 of the elders4245 and chief749 priests749 and scribes,1122 and be slain,615 and be raised1453 the third5154 day.2250

23 And he said3004 to them all,3956 If1487 any5100 man will2309 come2064 after3694 me, let him deny533 himself,1438 and take142 up his cross4716 daily,2596 2250 and follow190 me.

24 For whoever3739 302 will2309 save4982 his life5590 shall lose622 it: but whoever3739 302 will lose622 his life5590 for my sake,1752 the same3778 shall save4982 it.

25 For what5101 is a man444 advantaged,5623 if he gain2770 the whole3650 world,2889 and lose622 himself,1438 or2228 be cast2210 away?2210

26 For whoever3739 302 shall be ashamed1870 of me and of my words,3056 of him shall the Son5207 of man444 be ashamed,1870 when3752 he shall come2064 in his own glory,1391 and in his Father's,3962 and of the holy40 angels.32

27 But I tell3004 you of a truth,230 there be some5100 standing2476 here,5602 which3739 shall not taste1089 of death,2288 till2193 they see1492 the kingdom932 of God.2316

28 And it came1096 to pass about5616 an eight3638 days2250 after3326 these5128 sayings,3056 he took3880 Peter4074 and John2491 and James,2385 and went305 up into1519 a mountain3735 to pray.4336

29 And as he prayed,4336 the fashion1491 of his countenance4383 was altered,1096 2097 and his raiment2441 was white3022 and glistering.1823

30 And, behold,2400 there talked4814 with him two1417 men,435 which3748 were Moses3475 and Elias:2243

31 Who3739 appeared3700 in glory,1391 and spoke3004 of his decease1841 which3739 he should3195 accomplish4137 at1722 Jerusalem.2419

32 But Peter4074 and they that were with him were heavy916 with sleep:5258 and when they were awake,1235 they saw1492 his glory,1391 and the two1417 men435 that stood4921 with him.

33 And it came1096 to pass, as they departed1316 from him, Peter4074 said2036 to Jesus,2424 Master,1988 it is good2570 for us to be here:5602 and let us make4160 three5140 tabernacles;4633 one3391 for you, and one3391 for Moses,3475 and one3391 for Elias:2243 not knowing1492 what3739 he said.3004

34 While he thus5023 spoke,3004 there came1096 a cloud,3507 and overshadowed1982 them: and they feared5399 as they entered1525 into1519 the cloud.3507

35 And there came1096 a voice5456 out of the cloud,3507 saying,3004 This3778 is my beloved27 Son:5207 hear191 him.

36 And when1722 3588 the voice5456 was past,1096 Jesus2424 was found2147 alone.3441 And they kept4601 it close,4601 and told518 no3762 man3762 in those1565 days2250 any3762 of those things which3739 they had seen.3708

37 And it came1096 to pass, that on1722 the next1836 day,2250 when they were come2718 down2718 from the hill,3735 much4183 people3793 met4876 him.

38 And, behold,2400 a man435 of the company3793 cried310 out, saying,3004 Master,1320 I beseech1189 you, look1914 on my son:5207 for he is my3427 only3439 child.3439

39 And, see,2400 a spirit4151 takes2983 him, and he suddenly1810 cries2896 out; and it tears4682 him that he foams876 again,3326 and bruising4937 him hardly3425 departs672 from him.

40 And I sought1189 your disciples3101 to cast1544 him out; and they could1410 not.

41 And Jesus2424 answering611 said,2036 O faithless571 and perverse1294 generation,1074 how2193 long2193 shall I be with you, and suffer430 you? Bring4317 your son5207 here.5602

42 And as he was yet2089 a coming,4334 the devil1140 threw4952 him down, and tare4952 him. And Jesus2424 rebuked2008 the unclean169 spirit,4151 and healed2390 the child,3816 and delivered591 him again591 to his father.3962

43 And they were all3956 amazed1605 at1909 the mighty3168 power3168 of God.2316 But while they wondered2296 every3956 one3956 at1909 all3956 things which3739 Jesus2424 did,4160 he said2036 to his disciples,3101

44 Let these5128 sayings3056 sink5087 down into1519 your5216 ears:3775 for the Son5207 of man444 shall be delivered3860 into1519 the hands5495 of men.444

45 But they understood50 not this5127 saying,4487 and it was hid3871 from them, that they perceived143 it not: and they feared5399 to ask2065 him of that saying.4487

46 Then1161 there arose1525 a reasoning1261 among1722 them, which5101 of them should be greatest.3187

47 And Jesus,2424 perceiving1492 the thought1261 of their heart,2588 took1949 a child,3813 and set2476 him by him,

48 And said2036 to them, Whoever3739 1437 shall receive1209 this5124 child3813 in my name3686 receives1209 me: and whoever3739 1437 shall receive1209 me receives1209 him that sent649 me: for he that is least3398 among1722 you all,3956 the same3778 shall be great.3173

49 And John2491 answered611 and said,2036 Master,1988 we saw1492 one5100 casting1544 out devils1140 in your name;3686 and we forbade2967 him, because3754 he follows190 not with us.

50 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Forbid2967 him not: for he that is not against2596 us is for us.

51 And it came1096 to pass, when1722 3588 the time2250 was come4845 that he should be received354 up, he steadfastly4741 set4741 his face4383 to go4198 to Jerusalem,2419

52 And sent649 messengers32 before4253 his face:4383 and they went,4198 and entered1525 into1519 a village2968 of the Samaritans,4541 to make2090 ready2090 for him.

53 And they did not receive1209 him, because3754 his face4383 was as though he would go4198 to Jerusalem.2419

54 And when his disciples3101 James2385 and John2491 saw1492 this, they said,2036 Lord,2962 will2309 you that we command2036 fire4442 to come2597 down2597 from heaven,3772 and consume355 them, even2532 as Elias2243 did?4160

55 But he turned,4762 and rebuked2008 them, and said,2036 You know1492 not what3634 manner3634 of spirit4151 you are of.

56 For the Son5207 of man444 is not come2064 to destroy622 men's444 lives,5590 but to save4982 them. And they went4198 to another2087 village.2968

57 And it came1096 to pass, that, as they went4198 in the way,3598 a certain5100 man said2036 to him, Lord,2962 I will follow190 you wherever3699 302 you go.565

58 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Foxes258 have2192 holes,5454 and birds4071 of the air3772 have nests;2682 but the Son5207 of man444 has2192 not where4226 to lay2827 his head.2776

59 And he said2036 to another,2087 Follow190 me. But he said,2036 Lord,2962 suffer2010 me first4412 to go565 and bury2290 my father.3962

60 Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Let863 the dead3498 bury2290 their dead:3498 but go565 you and preach1229 the kingdom932 of God.2316

61 And another2087 also2532 said,2036 Lord,2962 I will follow190 you; but let2010 me first4412 go bid657 them farewell,657 which are at1519 home at my house.3624

62 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, No3762 man,3762 having5607 1722 put1911 his hand5495 to the plough,723 and looking991 back,3694 is fit2111 for the kingdom932 of God.2316

10

1 After3326 these5023 things the LORD2962 appointed322 other2087 seventy1440 also,2532 and sent649 them two1417 and two before4253 his face4383 into1519 every3956 city4172 and place,5117 where3757 he himself846 would3195 come.2064

2 Therefore3767 said3004 he to them, The harvest2326 truly3303 is great,4183 but the laborers2040 are few:3641 pray1189 you therefore the Lord2962 of the harvest,2326 that he would send1544 forth1544 laborers2040 into1519 his harvest.2326

3 Go4198 your ways: behold,2400 I send649 you forth649 as lambs704 among1722 3319 wolves.3074

4 Carry941 neither3361 purse,905 nor3361 money,4082 nor3361 shoes:5266 and salute782 no3367 man3367 by the way.3598

5 And into1519 whatever3739 302 house3614 you enter,1525 first4412 say,3004 Peace1515 be to this5129 house.3624

6 And if1437 the son5207 of peace1515 be there,1563 your5216 peace1515 shall rest1879 on it: if1490 not, it shall turn344 to you again.344

7 And in the same846 house3614 remain,3306 eating2068 and drinking4095 such things as they give:3844 for the laborer2040 is worthy514 of his hire.3408 Go3327 not from house3614 to house.3614

8 And into1519 whatever3739 302 city4172 you enter,1525 and they receive1209 you, eat2068 such things as are set3908 before3908 you:

9 And heal2323 the sick772 that are therein,1722 846 and say3004 to them, The kingdom932 of God2316 is come1448 near1448 to you.

10 But into1519 whatever3739 302 city4172 you enter,1525 and they receive1209 you not, go1831 your ways out into1519 the streets4113 of the same,846 and say,2036

11 Even2532 the very dust2868 of your5216 city,4172 which3588 sticks2853 on us, we do wipe631 off631 against you: notwithstanding4133 be you sure1097 of this,5124 that the kingdom932 of God2316 is come1448 near1448 to you.

12 But I say3004 to you, that it shall be more414 tolerable414 in that day2250 for Sodom,4670 than2228 for that city.4172

13 Woe3759 to you, Chorazin!5523 woe3759 to you, Bethsaida!966 for if1487 the mighty1411 works had been done1096 in Tyre5184 and Sidon,4605 which3739 have been done1096 in you, they had a great3819 while ago3819 repented,3340 sitting2521 in sackcloth4526 and ashes.4700

14 But it shall be more414 tolerable414 for Tyre5184 and Sidon4605 at1722 the judgment,2920 than2228 for you.

15 And you, Capernaum,2584 which3588 are exalted5312 to heaven,3772 shall be thrust2601 down2601 to hell.86

16 He that hears191 you hears191 me; and he that despises114 you despises114 me; and he that despises114 me despises114 him that sent649 me.

17 And the seventy1440 returned5290 again5290 with joy,5479 saying,3004 Lord,2962 even2532 the devils1140 are subject5293 to us through1722 your name.3686

18 And he said2036 to them, I beheld2334 Satan4567 as lightning796 fall4098 from heaven.3772

19 Behold,2400 I give1325 to you power1849 to tread3961 on1883 serpents3789 and scorpions,4651 and over1909 all3956 the power1411 of the enemy:2190 and nothing3762 shall by any3364 means3364 hurt91 you.

20 Notwithstanding4133 in this5129 rejoice5463 not, that the spirits4151 are subject5293 to you; but rather3123 rejoice,5463 because3754 your5216 names3686 are written1125 in heaven.3772

21 In that hour5610 Jesus2424 rejoiced21 in spirit,4151 and said,2036 I thank1843 you, O Father,3962 Lord2962 of heaven3772 and earth,1093 that you have hid613 these5023 things from the wise4680 and prudent,4908 and have revealed601 them to babes:3516 even3483 so,3488 Father;3962 for so3779 it seemed1096 2107 good in your sight.1715

22 All3956 things are delivered3860 to me of my Father:3962 and no3762 man3762 knows1097 who5101 the Son5207 is, but the Father;3962 and who5101 the Father3962 is, but the Son,5207 and he to whom3739 the Son5207 will1014 reveal601 him.

23 And he turned4762 him to his disciples,3101 and said2036 privately,2596 2398 Blessed3107 are the eyes3788 which3588 see991 the things that you see:991

24 For I tell3004 you, that many4183 prophets4396 and kings935 have desired2309 to see1492 those things which3739 you see,991 and have not seen1492 them; and to hear191 those things which3739 you hear,191 and have not heard191 them.

25 And, behold,2400 a certain5100 lawyer3544 stood450 up, and tempted1598 him, saying,3004 Master,1320 what5101 shall I do4160 to inherit2816 eternal166 life?2222

26 He said2036 to him, What5101 is written1125 in the law?3551 how4459 read314 you?

27 And he answering611 said,2036 You shall love25 the Lord2962 your God2316 with all3650 your heart,2588 and with all3650 your soul,5590 and with all3650 your strength,2479 and with all3650 your mind;1271 and your neighbor4139 as yourself.4572

28 And he said2036 to him, You have answered611 right:3723 this5124 do,4160 and you shall live.2198

29 But he, willing2309 to justify1344 himself,1438 said2036 to Jesus,2424 And who5101 is my neighbor?4139

30 And Jesus2424 answering5274 said,2036 A certain5100 man444 went2597 down2597 from Jerusalem2419 to Jericho,2410 and fell4045 among4045 thieves,3027 which3739 stripped1562 him of his raiment, and wounded4127 2007 him, and departed,565 leaving863 him half2253 dead.2253

31 And by chance4795 there came2597 down a certain5100 priest2409 that way:3598 and when he saw1492 him, he passed492 by on the other492 side.492

32 And likewise3668 a Levite,3019 when he was at2596 the place,5117 came2064 and looked1492 on him, and passed492 by on the other492 side.492

33 But a certain5100 Samaritan,4541 as he journeyed,3593 came2064 where2596 he was: and when he saw1492 him, he had compassion4697 on him,

34 And went4334 to him, and bound2611 up his wounds,5134 pouring in oil1637 and wine,3631 and set1913 him on1909 his own2398 beast,2934 and brought71 him to an inn,3829 and took1959 care1959 of him.

35 And on1909 the morrow839 when he departed,1831 he took1544 out two1417 pence,1220 and gave1325 them to the host,3830 and said2036 to him, Take care1959 of him; and whatever3748 302 you spend4325 more,4325 when1722 3588 I come1880 again,1880 I will repay591 you.

36 Which5101 now3767 of these5130 three,5140 think1380 you, was neighbor4139 to him that fell1706 among1519 the thieves?3027

37 And he said,2036 He that showed4160 mercy1656 on3326 him. Then3767 said2036 Jesus2424 to him, Go,4198 and do4160 you likewise.3668

38 Now1161 it came1096 to pass, as they went,4198 that he entered1525 into1519 a certain5100 village:2968 and a certain5100 woman1135 named3686 Martha3136 received5264 him into1519 her house.3624

39 And she had1510 a sister79 called2564 Mary,3137 which also2532 sat3869 at3844 Jesus'2424 feet,4228 and heard191 his word.3056

40 But Martha3136 was encumbered4049 about4012 much4183 serving,1248 and came2186 to him, and said,2036 Lord,2962 do you not care3199 that my sister79 has left2641 me to serve1247 alone?3441 bid2036 her therefore3767 that she help4878 me.

41 And Jesus2424 answered611 and said2036 to her, Martha,3136 Martha,3136 you are careful3309 and troubled5182 about4012 many4183 things:

42 But one1520 thing is needful:5532 and Mary3137 has chosen1586 that good18 part,3310 which3748 shall not be taken851 away851 from her.

11

1 And it came1096 to pass, that, as he was praying4336 in a certain5100 place,5117 when5613 he ceased,3973 one5100 of his disciples3101 said2036 to him, Lord,2962 teach1321 us to pray,4336 as John2491 also2532 taught1321 his disciples.3101

2 And he said2036 to them, When3752 you pray,4336 say,3004 Our Father3962 which3588 are in heaven,3772 Hallowed37 be your name.3686 Your kingdom932 come.2064 Your will2307 be done,1096 as in heaven,3772 so2532 in earth.1093

3 Give1325 us day3588 by day3588 our daily1967 bread.740

4 And forgive863 us our sins;266 for we also2532 forgive863 every3956 one that is indebted3784 to us. And lead1533 us not into1519 temptation;3986 but deliver4506 us from evil.4190

5 And he said2036 to them, Which5101 of you shall have2192 a friend,5384 and shall go4198 to him at3317 midnight,3317 and say2036 to him, Friend,5384 lend5531 me three5140 loaves;740

6 For a friend5384 of my3450 in his journey3598 is come3854 to me, and I have2192 nothing3756 3739 to set3908 before3908 him?

7 And he from within2081 shall answer611 and say,2036 Trouble2873 me not: the door2374 is now2235 shut,2808 and my children3813 are with me in bed;2845 I cannot3756 1410 rise450 and give1325 you.

8 I say3004 to you, Though1499 he will not rise1453 and give1325 him, because1223 he is his friend,5384 yet1065 because1223 of his importunity335 he will rise450 and give1325 him as many3745 as he needs.5535

9 And I say3004 to you, Ask,154 and it shall be given1325 you; seek,2212 and you shall find;2147 knock,2925 and it shall be opened455 to you.

10 For every3956 one that asks154 receives;2983 and he that seeks2212 finds;2147 and to him that knocks2925 it shall be opened.455

11 If a son5207 shall ask154 bread740 of any5100 of you that is a father,3962 will he give1929 him a stone?3037 or if he ask a fish,2486 will he for a fish2486 give1929 him a serpent?3789

12 Or2228 2532 if1437 he shall ask154 an egg,5609 will he offer1929 him a scorpion?4651

13 If1487 you then,3767 being5225 evil,4190 know1492 how to give1325 good18 gifts1390 to your5216 children:5043 how4214 much4214 more3123 shall your3588 heavenly1537 3772 Father3962 give1325 the Holy40 Spirit4151 to them that ask154 him?

14 And he was casting1544 out a devil,1140 and it was dumb.2974 And it came1096 to pass, when the devil1140 was gone1831 out, the dumb2974 spoke;2980 and the people3793 wondered.2296

15 But some5100 of them said,2036 He casts1544 out devils1140 through1722 Beelzebub954 the chief758 of the devils.1140

16 And others,2087 tempting3985 him, sought2212 of him a sign4592 from heaven.3772

17 But he, knowing1492 their thoughts,1270 said2036 to them, Every3956 kingdom932 divided1266 against1909 itself1438 is brought2049 to desolation;2049 and a house3624 divided against1909 a house3624 falls.4098

18 If1499 Satan4567 also2532 be divided1266 against1909 himself,1438 how4459 shall his kingdom932 stand?2476 because3754 you say3004 that I cast1544 out devils1140 through1722 Beelzebub.954

19 And if1487 I by Beelzebub954 cast1544 out devils,1140 by whom5101 do4160 your5216 sons5207 cast1544 them out? therefore1223 5124 shall they be your5216 judges.2923

20 But if1487 I with the finger1147 of God2316 cast1544 out devils,1140 no686 doubt686 the kingdom932 of God2316 is come5348 on you.

21 When3752 a strong2478 man armed2528 keeps5442 his palace,833 his goods5224 are in peace:1515

22 But when1875 a stronger2478 than he shall come1904 on him, and overcome3528 him, he takes142 from him all3833 his armor3833 wherein1909 3739 he trusted,3982 and divides1239 his spoils.4661

23 He that is not with me is against2596 me: and he that gathers4863 not with me scatters.4650

24 When3752 the unclean169 spirit4151 is gone1831 out of a man,444 he walks1330 through1223 dry504 places,5117 seeking2212 rest;372 and finding2147 none,3361 he said,3004 I will return5290 to my house3624 from where3606 I came1831 out.

25 And when he comes,2064 he finds2147 it swept4563 and garnished.2885

26 Then5119 goes4198 he, and takes3880 to him seven2033 other2087 spirits4151 more wicked4191 than himself;1438 and they enter1525 in, and dwell2730 there:1563 and the last2078 state of that man444 is worse5501 than the first.4413

27 And it came1096 to pass, as he spoke3004 these5023 things, a certain5100 woman1135 of the company3793 lifted1869 up her voice,5456 and said2036 to him, Blessed3107 is the womb2836 that bore941 you, and the breasts3149 which3739 you have sucked.2337

28 But he said,2036 Yes3304 rather,3304 blessed3107 are they that hear191 the word3056 of God,2316 and keep5442 it.

29 And when the people3793 were gathered1865 thick together,1865 he began756 to say,3004 This3778 is an evil4190 generation:1074 they seek1934 a sign;4592 and there shall no3756 sign4592 be given1325 it, but the sign4592 of Jonas2495 the prophet.4396

30 For as Jonas2495 was a sign4592 to the Ninevites,3536 so3779 shall also2532 the Son5207 of man444 be to this5026 generation.1074

31 The queen938 of the south3558 shall rise1453 up in the judgment2920 with the men435 of this5026 generation,1074 and condemn2632 them: for she came2064 from the utmost4009 parts of the earth1093 to hear191 the wisdom4678 of Solomon;4672 and, behold,2400 a greater4119 than Solomon4672 is here.5602

32 The men435 of Nineve3535 shall rise450 up in the judgment2920 with this5026 generation,1074 and shall condemn2632 it: for they repented3340 at1519 the preaching2782 of Jonas;2495 and, behold,2400 a greater4119 than Jonas2495 is here.5602

33 No3762 man,3762 when he has lighted681 a candle,3088 puts5087 it in a secret2926 place, neither3761 under5259 a bushel,3426 but on1909 a candlestick,3087 that they which3588 come1531 in may see991 the light.5338

34 The light3088 of the body4983 is the eye:3788 therefore3767 when1875 your4675 eye3788 is single,573 your whole3650 body4983 also2532 is full5460 of light;5460 but when3752 your eye3788 is evil,4190 your body4983 also2532 is full of darkness.4652

35 Take4648 heed4648 therefore3767 that the light5457 which3588 is in you be not darkness.4655

36 If1487 your whole3650 body4983 therefore3767 be full5460 of light,5460 having2192 no3365 5100 part3313 dark,4652 the whole3650 shall be full5460 of light,5460 as when3752 the bright796 shining796 of a candle3088 does give5461 you light.5461

37 And as he spoke,2980 a certain5100 Pharisee5330 sought2065 him to dine709 with him: and he went1525 in, and sat377 down377 to meat.

38 And when the Pharisee5330 saw1492 it, he marveled2296 that he had not first4412 washed907 before4253 dinner.712

39 And the Lord2962 said2036 to him, Now3568 do you Pharisees5330 make2511 clean2511 the outside1855 of the cup4221 and the platter;4094 but your5216 inward2081 part is full1073 of ravening724 and wickedness.4189

40 You fools,878 did not he that made4160 that which3588 is without1855 make4160 that which is within2081 also?2532

41 But rather4133 give1325 alms1654 of such things as you have;1751 and, behold,2400 all3956 things are clean2513 to you.

42 But woe3759 to you, Pharisees!5330 for you tithe586 mint2238 and rue4076 and all3956 manner of herbs,3001 and pass3928 over3928 judgment2920 and the love26 of God:2316 these5023 ought1163 you to have done,4160 and not to leave863 the other2548 undone.

43 Woe3759 to you, Pharisees!5330 for you love25 the uppermost4410 seats4410 in the synagogues,4864 and greetings783 in the markets.58

44 Woe3759 to you, scribes1122 and Pharisees,5330 hypocrites!5273 for you are as graves3419 which3588 appear82 not, and the men444 that walk4043 over1883 them are not aware1492 of them.

45 Then1161 answered611 one5100 of the lawyers,3544 and said3004 to him, Master,1320 thus5023 saying3004 you reproach5195 us also.2532

46 And he said,2036 Woe3759 to you also,2532 you lawyers!3544 for you lade5412 men444 with burdens5413 grievous1418 to be borne,1418 and you yourselves846 touch4379 not the burdens5413 with one1520 of your5216 fingers.1147

47 Woe3759 to you! for you build3618 the sepulchers3419 of the prophets,4396 and your5216 fathers3962 killed615 them.

48 Truly686 you bear3140 witness3140 that you allow4909 the deeds2041 of your5216 fathers:3962 for they indeed3303 killed615 them, and you build3618 their sepulchers.3419

49 Therefore also2532 said2036 the wisdom4678 of God,2316 I will send649 them prophets4396 and apostles,652 and some of them they shall slay615 and persecute:1559

50 That the blood129 of all3956 the prophets,4396 which3588 was shed1632 from the foundation2602 of the world,2889 may be required1567 of this5026 generation;1074

51 From the blood129 of Abel6 to the blood129 of Zacharias 2197which3588 perished622 between3342 the altar2379 and the temple:3624 truly3483 I say3004 to you, It shall be required1567 of this5026 generation.1074

52 Woe3759 to you, lawyers!3544 for you have taken142 away the key2807 of knowledge:1108 you entered1525 not in yourselves,846 and them that were entering1525 in you hindered.2967

53 And as he said3004 these5023 things to them, the scribes1122 and the Pharisees5330 began756 to urge1758 him vehemently,1171 and to provoke653 him to speak653 of many4119 things:

54 Laying1748 wait1748 for him, and seeking2212 to catch2340 something5100 out of his mouth,4750 that they might accuse2723 him.

12

1 In the mean time, when there were gathered1996 together1996 an innumerable3461 multitude3461 of people,3793 so5620 that they stepped2662 one240 on another,240 he began756 to say3004 to his disciples3101 first4412 of all, Beware4337 you of the leaven2219 of the Pharisees,5330 which3748 is hypocrisy.5272

2 For there is nothing3762 covered,4780 that shall not be revealed;601 neither hid,2927 that shall not be known.1097

3 Therefore473 5607 whatever3745 you have spoken2036 in darkness4655 shall be heard191 in the light;5457 and that which3739 you have spoken2980 in the ear3775 in closets5009 shall be proclaimed2784 on the housetops.1430

4 And I say3004 to you my friends,5384 Be not afraid5399 of them that kill615 the body,4983 and after3326 that have2192 no3365 5100 more4055 that they can1410 do.4160

5 But I will forewarn5263 you whom5101 you shall fear:5399 Fear5399 him, which after3326 he has killed615 has2192 power1849 to cast1685 into1519 hell;1067 yes,3483 I say3004 to you, Fear5399 him.

6 Are not five4002 sparrows4765 sold4453 for two1417 farthings,787 and not one1520 of them is forgotten1950 before1799 God?2316

7 But even2532 the very2532 hairs2359 of your5216 head2776 are all3956 numbered.705 Fear5399 not therefore:3767 you are of more1308 value1308 than many4183 sparrows.4765

8 Also1161 I say3004 to you, Whoever3956 shall confess3670 me before1715 men,444 him shall the Son5207 of man444 also2532 confess3670 before1715 the angels32 of God:2316

9 But he that denies720 me before1799 men444 shall be denied533 before1799 the angels32 of God.2316

10 And whoever3956 3739 shall speak2046 a word3056 against1519 the Son5207 of man,444 it shall be forgiven863 him: but to him that blasphemes987 against1519 the Holy40 Ghost4151 it shall not be forgiven.863

11 And when3752 they bring4374 you to the synagogues,4864 and to magistrates,746 and powers,1849 take you no3361 thought3309 how4459 or2228 what5101 thing you shall answer,626 or2228 what5101 you shall say:2036

12 For the Holy40 Ghost4151 shall teach1321 you in the same846 hour5610 what3739 you ought1163 to say.2036

13 And one5100 of the company3793 said2036 to him, Master,1320 speak2036 to my brother,80 that he divide3307 the inheritance2817 with me.

14 And he said2036 to him, Man,444 who5101 made2525 me a judge1348 or2228 a divider3312 over1909 you?

15 And he said2036 to them, Take heed,3708 and beware5442 of covetousness:4124 for a man's5100 life2222 consists2076 not in the abundance4052 of the things which he possesses.5224

16 And he spoke2036 a parable3850 to them, saying,3004 The ground5561 of a certain5100 rich4145 man444 brought2164 forth2164 plentifully:2164

17 And he thought1260 within1722 himself,1438 saying,3004 What5101 shall I do,4160 because3754 I have2192 no3756 room where4226 to bestow4863 my fruits?2590

18 And he said,2036 This5124 will I do:4160 I will pull2507 down2507 my barns,596 and build3618 greater;3187 and there1563 will I bestow4863 all3956 my fruits1081 and my goods.18

19 And I will say2046 to my soul,5590 Soul,5590 you have2192 much4183 goods18 laid2749 up for many4183 years;2094 take your ease,373 eat,5315 drink,4095 and be merry.2165

20 But God2316 said2036 to him, You fool,878 this5026 night3571 your soul5590 shall be required523 of you: then1161 whose5101 shall those things be, which3739 you have provided?2090

21 So3779 is he that lays up treasure2343 for himself,1438 and is not rich4147 toward1519 God.2316

22 And he said2036 to his disciples,3101 Therefore1223 5124 I say3004 to you, Take no3361 thought3309 for your5216 life,5590 what5101 you shall eat;5315 neither3366 for the body,4983 what5101 you shall put1746 on.1746

23 The life5590 is more4119 than meat,5160 and the body4983 is more than raiment.1742

24 Consider2657 the ravens:2876 for they neither3756 sow4687 nor3761 reap;2325 which3739 neither3756 have2076 storehouse5009 nor3761 barn;596 and God2316 feeds5142 them: how4214 much4214 more3123 are you better1308 than the fowls?4071

25 And which5101 of you with taking thought3309 can1410 add4369 to his stature2244 one1520 cubit?4083

26 If1487 you then3767 be not able1410 to do that thing which is least,1646 why5101 take you thought3309 for the rest?3062

27 Consider2657 the lilies2918 how4459 they grow:837 they toil2872 not, they spin3514 not; and yet I say3004 to you, that Solomon4672 in all3956 his glory1391 was not arrayed4016 like5613 one1520 of these.5130

28 If1487 then1161 God2316 so3779 clothe294 the grass,5528 which is to day4594 in the field,68 and to morrow839 is cast906 into1519 the oven;2823 how4214 much4214 more3123 will he clothe you, O you of little3640 faith?3640

29 And seek2212 not you what5101 you shall eat,5315 or2228 what5101 you shall drink,4095 neither3361 be you of doubtful3349 mind.

30 For all3956 these5023 things do the nations1484 of the world2889 seek1934 after:1934 and your5216 Father3962 knows1492 that you have need5535 of these5130 things.

31 But rather4133 seek2212 you the kingdom932 of God;2316 and all3956 these5023 things shall be added4369 to you.

32 Fear5399 not, little3398 flock;4168 for it is your5216 Father's3962 good pleasure2106 to give1325 you the kingdom.932

33 Sell4453 that you have,5224 and give1325 alms;1654 provide4160 yourselves1438 bags905 which wax3822 not old,3822 a treasure2344 in the heavens3772 that fails413 not, where3699 no3756 thief2812 approaches,1448 neither3761 moth4597 corrupts.1311

34 For where3699 your5216 treasure2344 is, there1563 will your5216 heart2588 be also.2532

35 Let your5216 loins3751 be girded4024 about,4024 and your3588 lights3088 burning;2545

36 And you yourselves like3664 to men444 that wait4327 for their lord,2962 when4218 he will return360 from the wedding;1062 that when he comes2064 and knocks,2925 they may open455 to him immediately.2112

37 Blessed3107 are those1565 servants,1401 whom3739 the lord2962 when he comes2064 shall find2147 watching:1127 truly281 I say3004 to you, that he shall gird4024 himself, and make347 them to sit347 down347 to meat, and will come3928 forth3928 and serve1247 them.

38 And if1437 he shall come2064 in the second1208 watch,5438 or2532 come2064 in the third5154 watch,5438 and find2147 them so,3779 blessed3107 are those1565 servants.1401

39 And this5124 know,1097 that if1487 the manager3611 of the house3617 had known1492 what4169 hour5610 the thief2812 would come,2064 he would have watched,1127 and not have suffered863 his house3624 to be broken1358 through.1358

40 Be you therefore3767 ready2092 also:2532 for the Son5207 of man444 comes2064 at an hour5610 when you think1380 not.

41 Then1161 Peter4074 said2036 to him, Lord,2962 speak3004 you this5026 parable3850 to us, or2228 even2532 to all?3956

42 And the Lord2962 said,2036 Who5101 then686 is that faithful4103 and wise5429 steward,3623 whom3739 his lord2962 shall make2525 ruler2525 over1909 his household,2322 to give1325 them their portion4620 of meat4620 in due season?2540

43 Blessed3107 is that servant,1401 whom3739 his lord2962 when he comes2064 shall find2147 so3779 doing.4160

44 Of a truth230 I say3004 to you, that he will make2525 him ruler2525 over1909 all3956 that he has.5224

45 But and if1437 that servant1401 say2036 in his heart,2588 My lord2962 delays5549 his coming;2064 and shall begin756 to beat5180 the menservants3816 and maidens,3814 and to eat2068 and drink,4095 and to be drunken;3182

46 The lord2962 of that servant1401 will come2240 in a day2250 when he looks4328 not for him, and at1722 an hour5610 when he is not aware,1097 and will cut1371 him in sunder, and will appoint5087 him his portion3313 with the unbelievers.571

47 And that servant,1401 which3588 knew1097 his lord's2962 will,2307 and prepared2090 not himself, neither3366 did4160 according4314 to his will,2307 shall be beaten1194 with many4183 stripes.

48 But he that knew1097 not, and did commit4160 things worthy514 of stripes,4127 shall be beaten1194 with few3641 stripes.4127 For to whomsoever3956 3739 much4183 is given,1325 of him shall be much4183 required:2212 and to whom3739 men have committed3908 much,4183 of him they will ask154 the more.4055

49 I am come2064 to send906 fire4442 on1519 the earth;1093 and what5101 will2309 I, if1487 it be already2235 kindled?381

50 But I have2192 a baptism908 to be baptized907 with; and how4459 am I straitened4912 till2193 it be accomplished!5055

51 Suppose1380 you that I am come3854 to give1325 peace1515 on1722 earth?1093 I tell3004 you, No;3780 but rather2228 division:1267

52 For from now on3568 there shall be five4002 in one1520 house3624 divided,1266 three5140 against1909 two,1417 and two1417 against1909 three.5140

53 The father3962 shall be divided1266 against1909 the son,5207 and the son5207 against1909 the father;3962 the mother3384 against1909 the daughter,2364 and the daughter2364 against1909 the mother;3384 the mother3994 in law3994 against1909 her daughter3565 in law,3565 and the daughter3565 in law3565 against1909 her mother3994 in law.3994

54 And he said3004 also2532 to the people,3793 When3752 you see1492 a cloud3507 rise393 out of the west,1424 straightway2112 you say,3004 There comes2064 a shower;3655 and so3779 it is.

55 And when3753 you see the south3558 wind blow,4154 you say,3004 There will be heat;2742 and it comes1096 to pass.

56 You hypocrites,5273 you can1492 discern1381 the face4383 of the sky3772 and of the earth;1093 but how4459 is it that you do not discern this5126 time?2540

57 Yes, and why5101 even2532 of yourselves1438 judge2919 you not what3588 is right?1342

58 When5613 you go5217 with your4675 adversary476 to the magistrate,758 as you are in the way,3598 give1325 diligence2039 that you may be delivered525 from him; lest3379 he hale2694 you to the judge,2923 and the judge2923 deliver3860 you to the officer,4233 and the officer4233 cast906 you into1519 prison.5438

59 I tell3004 you, you shall not depart1831 there,1564 till2193 you have paid591 the very last2078 mite.3016

13

1 There were present3918 at1722 that season2540 some5100 that told518 him of the Galilaeans,1057 whose3739 blood129 Pilate4091 had mingled3396 with their sacrifices.2378

2 And Jesus2424 answering611 said2036 to them, Suppose1380 you that these3778 Galilaeans1057 were sinners268 above3844 all3956 the Galilaeans,1057 because3754 they suffered3958 such5108 things?

3 I tell3004 you, No:3780 but, except3362 you repent,3340 you shall all3956 likewise5615 perish.622

4 Or2228 those1565 eighteen,1176 2532 3638 on whom3739 the tower4444 in Siloam4611 fell,4098 and slew615 them, think1380 you that they were sinners3781 above3844 all3956 men444 that dwelled2730 in Jerusalem?2419

5 I tell3004 you, No:3780 but, except3362 you repent,3340 you shall all3956 likewise3668 perish.622

6 He spoke3004 also1161 this5026 parable;3850 A certain5100 man had2192 a fig4808 tree4808 planted5452 in his vineyard;290 and he came2064 and sought2212 fruit2590 thereon,1722 846 and found2147 none.3756

7 Then1161 said2036 he to the dresser289 of his vineyard,289 Behold,2400 these three5140 years2094 I come2064 seeking2212 fruit2590 on1722 this5026 fig4808 tree,4808 and find2147 none:3756 cut1581 it down;1581 why2444 encumbers2673 it the ground?1093

8 And he answering611 said3004 to him, Lord,2962 let863 it alone863 this5124 year2094 also,2532 till2193 I shall dig4626 about4012 it, and dung906 2874 it:

9 And if2579 it bear4160 fruit,2590 well: and if1487 not, then after1519 3195 that you shall cut1581 it down.1581

10 And he was teaching1321 in one3391 of the synagogues4864 on1722 the sabbath.4521

11 And, behold,2400 there was a woman1135 which had2192 a spirit4151 of infirmity769 eighteen1176 years,2094 and was bowed4794 together,4794 and could1410 in no3361 wise3588 3838 lift352 up herself.

12 And when Jesus2424 saw1492 her, he called4377 her to him, and said2036 to her, Woman,1135 you are loosed630 from your4675 infirmity.769

13 And he laid2007 his hands5495 on2007 her: and immediately3916 she was made461 straight,461 and glorified1392 God.2316

14 And the ruler752 of the synagogue752 answered611 with indignation,23 because3754 that Jesus2424 had healed2323 on the sabbath4521 day, and said3004 to the people,3793 There are six1803 days2250 in which3739 men ought1163 to work:2038 in them therefore3767 come2064 and be healed,2323 and not on the sabbath4521 day.2250

15 The Lord2962 then3767 answered611 him, and said,2036 You hypocrite,5273 does not each1538 one of you on the sabbath4521 loose3089 his ox1016 or2228 his ass3688 from the stall,5336 and lead520 him away520 to watering?4222

16 And ought1163 not this5026 woman,1135 being5607 a daughter2364 of Abraham,11 whom3739 Satan4567 has bound,1210 see,2400 these eighteen1176 years,2094 be loosed3089 from this5127 bond1199 on the sabbath4521 day?2250

17 And when he had said3004 these5023 things, all3956 his adversaries480 were ashamed:2617 and all3956 the people3793 rejoiced5463 for all3956 the glorious1741 things that were done1096 by him.

18 Then1161 said3004 he, To what5101 is the kingdom932 of God2316 like?3664 and whereunto5101 shall I resemble3666 it?

19 It is like3664 a grain2848 of mustard4615 seed, which3739 a man444 took,2983 and cast906 into1519 his garden;2779 and it grew,837 and waxed1096 a great3173 tree;1186 and the fowls4071 of the air3772 lodged2681 in the branches2798 of it.

20 And again3825 he said,2036 Whereunto5101 shall I liken3666 the kingdom932 of God?2316

21 It is like3664 leaven,2219 which3739 a woman1135 took2983 and hid1470 in three5140 measures4568 of meal,224 till2193 the whole3650 was leavened.2220

22 And he went1279 through2596 the cities4172 and villages,2968 teaching,1321 and journeying4197 4160 toward1519 Jerusalem.2419

23 Then1161 said2036 one5100 to him, Lord,2962 are there few3641 that be saved?4982 And he said2036 to them,

24 Strive75 to enter1525 in at1223 the strait4728 gate:4439 for many,4183 I say3004 to you, will seek2212 to enter1525 in, and shall not be able.2480

25 When once the master3617 of the house3617 is risen1453 up, and has shut608 to the door,2374 and you begin756 to stand2476 without,1854 and to knock2925 at the door,2374 saying,3004 Lord,2962 Lord,2962 open455 to us; and he shall answer611 and say2046 to you, I know1492 you not from where4159 you are:

26 Then5119 shall you begin756 to say,3004 We have2192 eaten5315 and drunk4095 in your presence,1799 and you have taught1321 in our streets.4113

27 But he shall say,2046 I tell3004 you, I know1492 you not from where4159 you are; depart868 from me, all3956 you workers2040 of iniquity.93

28 There1563 shall be weeping2805 and gnashing1030 of teeth,3599 when3752 you shall see3700 Abraham,11 and Isaac,2464 and Jacob,2384 and all3956 the prophets,4396 in the kingdom932 of God,2316 and you yourselves thrust1544 out.

29 And they shall come2240 from the east,395 and from the west,1424 and from the north,1005 and from the south,3558 and shall sit347 down347 in the kingdom932 of God.2316

30 And, behold,2400 there are last2078 which3739 shall be first,4413 and there are first4413 which3739 shall be last.2078

31 The same846 day2250 there came4334 certain5100 of the Pharisees,5330 saying3004 to him, Get1831 you out, and depart4198 hence:1782 for Herod2264 will2309 kill615 you.

32 And he said2036 to them, Go4198 you, and tell2036 that fox,258 Behold,2400 I cast1544 out devils,1140 and I do2005 cures2392 to day4594 and to morrow,839 and the third5154 day I shall be perfected.5048

33 Nevertheless4133 I must1163 walk4198 to day,4594 and to morrow,839 and the day following:2192 for it cannot3756 1735 be that a prophet4396 perish622 out of Jerusalem.2419

34 O Jerusalem,2419 Jerusalem,2419 which3588 kill615 the prophets,4396 and stone3036 them that are sent649 to you; how4212 often4212 would2309 I have gathered1996 your children5043 together,1996 as a hen3733 does gather her brood3555 under5259 her wings,4420 and you would2309 not!

35 Behold,2400 your5216 house3624 is left863 to you desolate:2048 and truly281 I say3004 to you, You shall not see1492 me, until2193 the time come2240 when3753 you shall say,2036 Blessed2127 is he that comes2064 in the name3686 of the Lord.2962

14

1 And it came1096 to pass, as he went2064 into1519 the house3624 of one5100 of the chief758 Pharisees5330 to eat5315 bread740 on the sabbath4521 day, that they watched3906 him.

2 And, behold,2400 there was a certain5100 man444 before1715 him which had the dropsy.5203

3 And Jesus2424 answering611 spoke2036 to the lawyers3544 and Pharisees,5330 saying,3004 Is it lawful1832 to heal2323 on the sabbath4521 day?

4 And they held2270 their peace.2270 And he took1949 him, and healed2323 him, and let him go;630

5 And answered611 them, saying,2036 Which5101 of you shall have an ass3688 or2228 an ox1016 fallen1706 into1519 a pit,5421 and will not straightway2112 pull385 him out on1722 the sabbath4521 day?2250

6 And they could2480 not answer470 him again470 to these5023 things.

7 And he put3004 forth3004 a parable3850 to those3588 which were bidden,2564 when he marked1907 how4459 they chose1586 out the chief4411 rooms;4411 saying3004 to them.

8 When3752 you are bidden2564 of any5100 man444 to a wedding,1062 sit2625 not down2625 in the highest4411 room;4411 lest3379 a more honorable1784 man444 than you be bidden2564 of him;

9 And he that bade2564 you and him come2064 and say2046 to you, Give1325 this5129 man444 place;5117 and you begin756 with shame152 to take2722 the lowest2078 room.5117

10 But when3752 you are bidden,2564 go4198 and sit377 down377 in the lowest2078 room;5117 that when3752 he that bade2564 you comes,2064 he may say2036 to you, Friend,5384 go4320 up higher:511 then5119 shall you have2071 worship1391 in the presence1799 of them that sit4873 at4873 meat with you.

11 For whoever3956 3588 exalts5312 himself1438 shall be abased;5013 and he that humbles5013 himself1438 shall be exalted.5312

12 Then1161 said3004 he also2532 to him that bade2564 him, When3752 you make4160 a dinner712 or2228 a supper,1173 call5455 not your friends,5384 nor3364 your brothers,80 neither3366 your kinsmen,4773 nor3364 your rich4145 neighbors;1069 lest3379 they also2532 bid479 you again,479 and a recompense468 be made1096 you.

13 But when3752 you make4160 a feast,1403 call2564 the poor,4434 the maimed,376 the lame,5560 the blind:5185

14 And you shall be blessed;3107 for they cannot3756 2192 recompense467 you: for you shall be recompensed467 at1722 the resurrection386 of the just.1342

15 And when one5100 of them that sat4873 at4873 meat with him heard191 these5023 things, he said2036 to him, Blessed3107 is he that shall eat5315 bread740 in the kingdom932 of God.2316

16 Then1161 said2036 he to him, A certain5100 man444 made4160 a great3173 supper,1173 and bade2564 many:4183

17 And sent649 his servant1401 at supper1173 time5610 to say2036 to them that were bidden,2564 Come;2064 for all3956 things are now2235 ready.2092

18 And they all3956 with one3391 consent began756 to make3868 excuse.3868 The first4413 said2036 to him, I have bought59 a piece of ground,68 and I must2192 needs318 go1831 and see1492 it: I pray2065 you have2192 me excused.3868

19 And another2087 said,2036 I have bought59 five4002 yoke2201 of oxen,1016 and I go4198 to prove1381 them: I pray2065 you have2192 me excused.3868

20 And another2087 said,2036 I have married1060 a wife,1135 and therefore122 5124 I cannot3756 1410 come.2064

21 So2532 that servant1401 came,3854 and showed518 his lord2962 these5023 things. Then5119 the master3617 of the house3617 being angry3710 said2036 to his servant,1401 Go1831 out quickly5030 into1519 the streets4113 and lanes4505 of the city,4172 and bring1521 in here5602 the poor,4434 and the maimed,376 and the halt,5560 and the blind.5185

22 And the servant1401 said,2036 Lord,2962 it is done1096 as you have commanded,2004 and yet2089 there is room.5117

23 And the lord2962 said2036 to the servant,1401 Go1831 out into1519 the highways1327 3598 and hedges,5418 and compel315 them to come1525 in, that my house3624 may be filled.1072

24 For I say3004 to you, That none3762 of those1565 men435 which3588 were bidden2564 shall taste1089 of my supper.1173

25 And there went4848 great4183 multitudes3793 with him: and he turned,4762 and said2036 to them,

26 If1487 any1536 man come2064 to me, and hate3404 not his father,3962 and mother,3384 and wife,1135 and children,5043 and brothers,80 and sisters,79 yes,2089 and his own1438 life5590 also,2532 he cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

27 And whoever3748 does not bear941 his cross,4716 and come2064 after3694 me, cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

28 For which5101 of you, intending2309 to build3618 a tower,4444 sits2523 not down2523 first,4412 and counts5585 the cost,1160 whether1487 he have2192 sufficient to finish535 it?

29 Lest2443 3361 haply,3379 after he has laid5087 the foundation,2310 and is not able2480 to finish1615 it, all3956 that behold2334 it begin756 to mock1702 him,

30 Saying,3004 This3778 man444 began756 to build,3618 and was not able2480 to finish.1615

31 Or2228 what5101 king,935 going4198 to make4820 war4171 against another2087 king,935 sits2523 not down2523 first,4412 and consults1011 whether1487 he be able1415 with ten1176 thousand5505 to meet528 him that comes2064 against1909 him with twenty1501 thousand?5505

32 Or1161 else,1490 while the other846 is yet2089 a great4183 way4206 off,631 he sends649 an ambassador,4242 and desires2065 conditions4314 of peace.1515

33 So3767 likewise,3779 whoever3956 he be of you that forsakes657 not all3956 that he has,5224 he cannot3756 1410 be my disciple.3101

34 Salt217 is good:2570 but if1437 the salt217 have lost3471 his flavor,3471 with which1722 5101 shall it be seasoned?741

35 It is neither3777 fit2111 for the land,1095 nor3777 yet for the dunghill;2874 but men cast906 it out. He that has2192 ears3775 to hear,191 let him hear.191

15

1 Then1161 drew near1448 to him all3956 the publicans5057 and sinners268 for to hear191 him.

2 And the Pharisees5330 and scribes1122 murmured,1234 saying,3004 This3778 man receives4327 sinners,268 and eats4906 with them.

3 And he spoke2036 this5026 parable3850 to them, saying,3004

4 What5101 man444 of you, having2192 an hundred1540 sheep,4263 if he lose622 one1520 of them, does not leave2641 the ninety1768 and nine1768 in the wilderness,2048 and go4198 after1909 that which is lost,622 until2193 he find2147 it?

5 And when he has found2147 it, he lays2007 it on1909 his shoulders,5606 rejoicing.5463

6 And when he comes2064 home,3624 he calls4779 together4779 his friends5384 and neighbors,1069 saying3004 to them, Rejoice4796 with me; for I have found2147 my sheep4263 which3588 was lost.622

7 I say3004 to you, that likewise3779 joy5479 shall be in heaven3772 over1909 one1520 sinner268 that repents,3340 more than2228 over1909 ninety1768 and nine1768 just1342 persons, which3748 need2192 5532 no3756 repentance.3341

8 Either2228 what5101 woman1135 having2192 ten1176 pieces1406 of silver,1406 if1437 she lose622 one3391 piece,1406 does not light681 a candle,3088 and sweep4563 the house,3614 and seek2212 diligently1960 till2193 she find2147 it?

9 And when she has found2147 it, she calls4779 her friends5384 and her neighbors1069 together,4779 saying,3004 Rejoice4796 with me; for I have found2147 the piece1406 which3739 I had lost.622

10 Likewise,3779 I say3004 to you, there is joy5479 in the presence1799 of the angels32 of God2316 over1909 one1520 sinner268 that repents.3340

11 And he said,2036 A certain5100 man444 had2192 two1417 sons:5207

12 And the younger3501 of them said2036 to his father,3962 Father,3962 give1325 me the portion3313 of goods3776 that falls1911 to me. And he divided1244 to them his living.979

13 And not many4183 days2250 after3326 the younger3501 son5207 gathered4863 all537 together,4863 and took589 his journey589 into1519 a far3117 country,5561 and there1563 wasted1287 his substance3776 with riotous811 living.2198

14 And when he had spent1159 all,3956 there arose1096 a mighty2478 famine3042 in that land;5561 and he began756 to be in want.5302

15 And he went4198 and joined2853 himself1438 to a citizen4177 of that country;5561 and he sent3992 him into1519 his fields68 to feed1006 swine.5519

16 And he would fain1937 have filled1072 his belly2836 with the husks2769 that the swine5519 did eat:2068 and no3762 man3762 gave1325 to him.

17 And when he came2064 to himself,1438 he said,2036 How4214 many4214 hired3407 servants3407 of my father's3962 have bread740 enough4052 and to spare,4052 and I perish622 with hunger!3042

18 I will arise450 and go4198 to my father,3962 and will say2046 to him, Father,3962 I have sinned264 against1519 heaven,3772 and before1799 you,

19 And am1510 no3765 more3765 worthy514 to be called2564 your son:5207 make4160 me as one1520 of your hired3407 servants.3407

20 And he arose,450 and came2064 to his father.3962 But when he was yet2089 a great3112 way3112 off,568 his father3962 saw1492 him, and had compassion,4697 and ran,5143 and fell1968 on1909 his neck,5137 and kissed2705 him.

21 And the son5207 said2036 to him, Father,3962 I have sinned264 against1519 heaven,3772 and in your sight,1799 and am1510 no3765 more3765 worthy514 to be called2564 your son.5207

22 But the father3962 said2036 to his servants,1401 Bring1627 forth1627 the best4413 robe,4749 and put1746 it on1746 him; and put1325 a ring1146 on1519 his hand,5495 and shoes5266 on1519 his feet:4228

23 And bring5342 here5602 the fatted4618 calf,3448 and kill2380 it; and let us eat,5315 and be merry:2165

24 For this3778 my son5207 was dead,3498 and is alive326 again;326 he was lost,622 and is found.2147 And they began756 to be merry.2165

25 Now1161 his elder4245 son5207 was in the field:68 and as he came2064 and drew near1448 to the house,3614 he heard191 music4858 and dancing.5525

26 And he called4341 one1520 of the servants,3816 and asked4441 what5101 these5023 things meant.1498

27 And he said2036 to him, Your brother80 is come;2240 and your father3962 has killed2380 the fatted4618 calf,3448 because3754 he has received618 him safe5198 and sound.5198

28 And he was angry,3710 and would2309 not go1525 in: therefore3767 came1831 his father3962 out, and entreated3870 him.

29 And he answering611 said2036 to his father,3962 See,2400 these5118 many5118 years2094 do I serve1398 you, neither3763 transgressed3928 I at3763 any3763 time your commandment:1785 and yet you never3763 gave1325 me a kid,2056 that I might make2165 merry2165 with my friends:5384

30 But as soon3753 as this3778 your son5207 was come,2064 which3588 has devoured2719 your living979 with harlots,4204 you have killed2380 for him the fatted4618 calf.3448

31 And he said2036 to him, Son,5043 you are1488 ever3842 with me, and all3956 that I have1699 is yours.4674

32 It was meet1163 that we should make2165 merry,2165 and be glad:5463 for this3778 your brother80 was dead,3498 and is alive326 again;326 and was lost,622 and is found.2147

16

1 And he said3004 also2532 to his disciples,3101 There was a certain5100 rich4145 man,444 which3739 had2192 a steward;3623 and the same3778 was accused1225 to him that he had wasted1287 his goods.5224

2 And he called5455 him, and said2036 to him, How5101 is it that I hear191 this5124 of you? give591 an account3056 of your stewardship;3622 for you may1410 be no3756 longer2089 steward.3621

3 Then1161 the steward3622 said2036 within1722 himself,1438 What5101 shall I do?4160 for my lord2962 takes851 away851 from me the stewardship:3622 I cannot3756 2480 dig;4626 to beg1871 I am ashamed.153

4 I am resolved1097 what5101 to do,4160 that, when3752 I am put3179 out of the stewardship,3622 they may receive1209 me into1519 their houses.3624

5 So2532 he called4341 every1538 one1520 of his lord's2962 debtors5533 to him, and said3004 to the first,4413 How4214 much4214 owe3784 you to my lord?2962

6 And he said,2036 An hundred1540 measures943 of oil.1637 And he said2036 to him, Take1209 your bill,1121 and sit2523 down2523 quickly,5030 and write1125 fifty.4004

7 Then1899 said2036 he to another,2087 And how4214 much4214 owe3784 you? And he said,2036 An hundred1540 measures2884 of wheat.4621 And he said3004 to him, Take1209 your bill,1121 and write1125 fourscore.3589

8 And the lord2962 commended1867 the unjust93 steward,3622 because3754 he had done4160 wisely:5430 for the children5207 of this5127 world165 are in their generation1074 wiser5429 than5228 the children5207 of light.5457

9 And I say3004 to you, Make4160 to yourselves1438 friends5384 of the mammon3126 of unrighteousness;93 that, when3752 you fail,1587 they may receive1209 you into1519 everlasting166 habitations.4633

10 He that is faithful4103 in that which is least1646 is faithful4103 also2532 in much:4183 and he that is unjust94 in the least1646 is unjust94 also2532 in much.4183

11 If1487 therefore3767 you have not been1096 faithful4103 in the unrighteous94 mammon,3126 who5101 will commit4100 to your5213 trust4100 the true228 riches?

12 And if1487 you have not been1096 faithful4103 in that which is another245 man's,245 who5101 shall give1325 you that which is your5212 own?

13 No3762 servant3610 can1410 serve1398 two1417 masters:2962 for either2228 he will hate3404 the one,1520 and love25 the other;2087 or2228 else he will hold472 to the one,1520 and despise2706 the other.2087 You cannot3756 1410 serve1398 God2316 and mammon.3126

14 And the Pharisees5330 also,2532 who were covetous,5366 heard191 all3956 these5023 things: and they derided1592 him.

15 And he said2036 to them, You are they which3588 justify1344 yourselves1438 before1799 men;444 but God2316 knows1097 your5216 hearts:2588 for that which is highly5308 esteemed among1722 men444 is abomination946 in the sight1799 of God.2316

16 The law3551 and the prophets4396 were until2193 John:2491 since575 that time5119 the kingdom932 of God2316 is preached,2097 and every3956 man presses971 into1519 it.

17 And it is easier2123 for heaven3772 and earth1093 to pass,3928 than2228 one3391 pronunciation mark2762 of the law3551 to fail.4098

18 Whoever3956 3588 puts630 away630 his wife,1135 and marries1060 another,2087 commits3431 adultery:3431 and whoever3956 3588 marries1060 her that is put630 away630 from her husband435 commits3431 adultery.3431

19 There was a certain5100 rich4145 man,444 which2532 was clothed1737 in purple4209 and fine linen,1040 and fared2165 sumptuously2988 every2596 day:2250

20 And there was a certain5100 beggar4434 named3686 Lazarus,2976 which3739 was laid906 at4314 his gate,4440 full of sores,1669

21 And desiring1937 to be fed5526 with the crumbs5589 which3588 fell4098 from the rich4145 man's table:5132 moreover235 2532 the dogs2965 came2064 and licked621 his sores.1668

22 And it came1096 to pass, that the beggar4434 died,599 and was carried667 by the angels32 into1519 Abraham's11 bosom:2859 the rich4145 man also2532 died,599 and was buried;2290

23 And in hell86 he lift1869 up his eyes,3788 being5225 in torments,931 and sees3708 Abraham11 afar3113 off,575 and Lazarus2976 in his bosom.2859

24 And he cried5455 and said,2036 Father3962 Abraham,11 have mercy1653 on me, and send3992 Lazarus,2976 that he may dip911 the tip206 of his finger1147 in water,5204 and cool2711 my tongue;1100 for I am tormented3600 in this5026 flame.5395

25 But Abraham11 said,2036 Son,5043 remember3415 that you in your lifetime2222 received618 your good18 things, and likewise3668 Lazarus2976 evil2556 things: but now3568 he is comforted,3870 and you are tormented.3600

26 And beside1909 all3956 this,5125 between3342 us and you there is a great3173 gulf5490 fixed:4741 so3704 that they which would2309 pass1224 from hence1782 to you cannot;3361 1410 neither3366 can1410 they pass1276 to us, that would come from there.1564

27 Then1161 he said,2036 I pray2065 you therefore,3767 father,3962 that you would send3992 him to my father's3962 house:3624

28 For I have2192 five4002 brothers;80 that he may testify1263 to them, lest2443 3361 they also2532 come2064 into1519 this5126 place5117 of torment.931

29 Abraham11 said3004 to him, They have2192 Moses3475 and the prophets;4396 let them hear191 them.

30 And he said,2036 No,3780 father3962 Abraham:11 but if1437 one5100 went4198 to them from the dead,3498 they will repent.3340

31 And he said2036 to him, If1487 they hear191 not Moses3475 and the prophets,4396 neither3761 will they be persuaded,3982 though1437 one5100 rose450 from the dead.3498

17

1 Then1161 said2036 he to the disciples,3101 It is impossible418 but that offenses4625 will come:2064 but woe3759 to him, through1223 whom3739 they come!2064

2 It were better3081 for him that a millstone3458 3684 were hanged4029 about4012 his neck,5137 and he cast4496 into1519 the sea,2281 than2228 that he should offend4624 one1520 of these5130 little3398 ones.

3 Take heed4337 to yourselves:1438 If1437 your brother80 trespass264 against1519 you, rebuke2008 him; and if1437 he repent,3340 forgive863 him.

4 And if1437 he trespass264 against1519 you seven2034 times2034 in a day,2250 and seven2034 times2034 in a day2250 turn1994 again1994 to you, saying,3004 I repent;3340 you shall forgive863 him.

5 And the apostles652 said2036 to the Lord,2962 Increase4369 our faith.4102

6 And the Lord2962 said,2036 If1487 you had2192 faith4102 as a grain2848 of mustard4615 seed, you might say3004 to this5026 sycamine4807 tree, Be you plucked1610 up by the root,1610 and be you planted5452 in the sea;2281 and it should obey5219 you.

7 But which5101 of you, having2192 a servant1401 plowing722 or2228 feeding4165 cattle,4165 will say2046 to him by and by, when he is come1525 from the field,68 Go3928 and sit377 down377 to meat?

8 And will not rather say2046 to him, Make2090 ready2090 with which5101 I may sup,1172 and gird4024 yourself, and serve1247 me, till2193 I have eaten5315 and drunken;4095 and afterward3326 5023 you shall eat5315 and drink?4095

9 Does he thank2192 5485 that servant1401 because3754 he did4160 the things that were commanded1299 him? I trow1380 not.

10 So3779 likewise2532 you, when3752 you shall have done4160 all3956 those3588 things which are commanded1299 you, say,3004 We are unprofitable888 servants:1401 we have done4160 that which3739 was our duty3784 to do.4160

11 And it came1096 to pass, as he went4198 to Jerusalem,2419 that he passed1330 through1223 the middle3319 of Samaria4540 and Galilee.1056

12 And as he entered1525 into1519 a certain5100 village,2968 there met528 him ten1176 men435 that were lepers,3015 which3739 stood2476 afar4207 off:

13 And they lifted142 up their voices,5456 and said,3004 Jesus,2424 Master,1988 have mercy1653 on us.

14 And when he saw1492 them, he said2036 to them, Go4198 show1925 yourselves1438 to the priests.2409 And it came1096 to pass, that, as they went,5217 they were cleansed.2511

15 And one1520 of them, when he saw1492 that he was healed,2390 turned5290 back,5290 and with a loud3173 voice5456 glorified1392 God,2316

16 And fell4098 down on1909 his face4383 at3844 his feet,4228 giving him thanks:2168 and he was a Samaritan.4541

17 And Jesus2424 answering611 said,2036 Were there not ten1176 cleansed?2511 but where4226 are the nine?1767

18 There are not found2147 that returned5290 to give1325 glory1391 to God,2316 save1508 this3778 stranger.241

19 And he said2036 to him, Arise,450 go4198 your way: your faith4102 has made4982 you whole.4982

20 And when he was demanded1905 of the Pharisees,5330 when4218 the kingdom932 of God2316 should come,2064 he answered611 them and said,2036 The kingdom932 of God2316 comes2064 not with observation:3907

21 Neither3761 shall they say,2046 See2400 here!5602 or,2228 see2400 there!1563 for, behold,2400 the kingdom932 of God2316 is within1787 you.

22 And he said2036 to the disciples,3101 The days2250 will come,2064 when3753 you shall desire1937 to see1492 one3391 of the days2250 of the Son5207 of man,444 and you shall not see3700 it.

23 And they shall say2046 to you, See2400 here;5602 or,2228 see2400 there:1563 go565 not after them, nor3364 follow1377 them.

24 For as the lightning,796 that lightens797 out of the one part under5259 heaven,3772 shines2989 to the other part under5259 heaven;3772 so3779 shall also2532 the Son5207 of man444 be in his day.2250

25 But first4412 must1163 he suffer3958 many4183 things, and be rejected593 of this5026 generation.1074

26 And as it was in the days2250 of Noe,3575 so3779 shall it be also2532 in the days2250 of the Son5207 of man.444

27 They did eat,2068 they drank,4095 they married1060 wives, they were given in marriage,1548 until891 the day2250 that Noe3575 entered1525 into1519 the ark,2787 and the flood2627 came,2064 and destroyed622 them all.537

28 Likewise3668 also2532 as it was in the days2250 of Lot;3091 they did eat,2068 they drank,4095 they bought,59 they sold,4453 they planted,5452 they built;3618

29 But the same day2250 that Lot3091 went1831 out of Sodom4670 it rained1026 fire4442 and brimstone2303 from heaven,3772 and destroyed622 them all.537

30 Even thus2596 5023 shall it be in the day2250 when the Son5207 of man444 is revealed.601

31 In that day,2250 he which3739 shall be on the housetop,1430 and his stuff4632 in the house,3614 let him not come2597 down2597 to take142 it away: and he that is in the field,68 let him likewise3668 not return1994 back.3694

32 Remember3421 Lot's wife.1135

33 Whoever3739 1437 shall seek2212 to save4982 his life5590 shall lose622 it; and whoever3739 1437 shall lose622 his life5590 shall preserve2225 it.

34 I tell3004 you, in that night3571 there shall be two1417 men in one3391 bed;2825 the one1520 shall be taken,3880 and the other2087 shall be left.863

35 Two1417 women shall be grinding229 together;1909 3588 846 the one3391 shall be taken,3880 and the other2087 left.863

36 Two1417 men shall be in the field;68 the one1520 shall be taken,3880 and the other2087 left.863

37 And they answered611 and said3004 to him, Where,4226 Lord?2962 And he said2036 to them, Wherever3699 the body4983 is, thither1563 will the eagles105 be gathered4863 together.4863

18

1 And he spoke3004 a parable3850 to them to this3588 end, that men ought1163 always3842 to pray,4336 and not to faint;1573

2 Saying,3004 There was in a city4172 a judge,2923 which feared5399 not God,2316 neither3366 regarded1788 man:444

3 And there was a widow5503 in that city;4172 and she came2064 to him, saying,3004 Avenge1556 me of my3450 adversary.476

4 And he would2309 not for a while:5550 but afterward3326 5023 he said2036 within1722 himself,1438 Though1499 I fear5399 not God,2316 nor3756 regard1788 man;444

5 Yet1065 because1223 this5026 widow5503 troubles3930 2873 me, I will avenge1556 her, lest2443 3361 by her continual1519 5056 coming2064 she weary5299 me.

6 And the Lord2962 said,2036 Hear191 what5101 the unjust93 judge2923 said.3004

7 And shall not God2316 avenge4160 his own elect,1588 which3588 cry994 day2250 and night3571 to him, though2532 he bear3114 long3114 with them?

8 I tell3004 you that he will avenge4160 them speedily.1722 5034 Nevertheless4133 when the Son5207 of man444 comes,2064 shall he find2147 faith4102 on1909 the earth?1093

9 And he spoke2036 this5026 parable3850 to certain5100 which3588 trusted3982 in themselves1438 that they were righteous,1342 and despised1848 others:3062

10 Two1417 men444 went305 up into1519 the temple2411 to pray;4336 the one1520 a Pharisee,5330 and the other2087 a publican.5057

11 The Pharisee5330 stood2476 and prayed4336 thus5023 with himself,1438 God,2316 I thank2168 you, that I am1510 not as other3062 men444 are, extortionists,727 unjust,94 adulterers,3432 or2228 even2532 as this3778 publican.5057

12 I fast3522 twice1364 in the week,4521 I give tithes586 of all3956 that I possess.2932

13 And the publican,5057 standing2476 afar3113 off, would2309 not lift1869 up so3761 much3761 as his eyes3788 to heaven,3772 but smote5180 on his breast,4738 saying,3004 God2316 be merciful2433 to me a sinner.268

14 I tell3004 you, this3778 man went2597 down2597 to his house3624 justified1344 rather than2228 the other:1565 for every3956 one that exalts5312 himself1438 shall be abased;5013 and he that humbles5013 himself1438 shall be exalted.5312

15 And they brought4374 to him also2532 infants,1025 that he would touch680 them: but when his disciples3101 saw1492 it, they rebuked2008 them.

16 But Jesus2424 called4341 them to him, and said,2036 Suffer863 little3813 children3813 to come2064 to me, and forbid2967 them not: for of such5108 is the kingdom932 of God.2316

17 Truly281 I say3004 to you, Whoever3739 1437 shall not receive1209 the kingdom932 of God2316 as a little3813 child3813 shall in no3364 wise enter1525 therein.1519 846

18 And a certain5100 ruler758 asked1905 him, saying,3004 Good18 Master,1320 what5101 shall I do4160 to inherit2816 eternal166 life?2222

19 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Why5101 call3004 you me good?18 none3762 is good,18 save1508 one,1520 that is, God.2316

20 You know1492 the commandments,1785 Do not commit3431 adultery,3431 Do not kill,5407 Do not steal,2813 Do not bear5576 false5576 witness,5576 Honor5091 your father3962 and your mother.

21 And he said,2036 All3956 these5023 have I kept5442 from my youth3503 up.

22 Now1161 when Jesus2424 heard191 these5023 things, he said2036 to him, Yet2089 lack3007 you one1520 thing: sell4453 all3956 that you have,2192 and distribute1239 to the poor,4434 and you shall have2192 treasure2344 in heaven:3772 and come,1204 follow190 me.

23 And when he heard191 this,5023 he was very4970 sorrowful:4036 for he was very4970 rich.4145

24 And when Jesus2424 saw1492 that he was very4036 sorrowful,4036 he said,2036 How4459 hardly1423 shall they that have2192 riches5536 enter1525 into1519 the kingdom932 of God!2316

25 For it is easier2123 for a camel2574 to go1525 through1223 a needle's4476 eye,5168 than2228 for a rich4145 man to enter1525 into1519 the kingdom932 of God.2316

26 And they that heard191 it said,2036 Who5101 then2532 can1410 be saved?4982

27 And he said,2036 The things which are impossible102 with men444 are possible1415 with God.2316

28 Then1161 Peter4074 said,2036 See,2400 we have left863 all,3956 and followed190 you.

29 And he said2036 to them, Truly281 I say3004 to you, There is no3762 man3762 that has left863 house,3614 or2228 parents,1118 or2228 brothers,80 or2228 wife,1135 or2228 children,5043 for the kingdom932 of God's2316 sake,1752

30 Who3739 shall not receive618 manifold4179 more4179 in this5129 present time,2540 and in the world165 to come2064 life2222 everlasting.166

31 Then1161 he took3880 to him the twelve,1427 and said2036 to them, Behold,2400 we go305 up to Jerusalem,2414 and all3956 things that are written1125 by the prophets4396 concerning the Son5207 of man444 shall be accomplished.5055

32 For he shall be delivered3860 to the Gentiles,1484 and shall be mocked,1702 and spitefully5195 entreated,5195 and spitted1716 on:1716

33 And they shall whip3146 him, and put615 him to death:615 and the third5154 day2250 he shall rise450 again.450

34 And they understood4920 none3762 of these5130 things: and this5124 saying4487 was hid2928 from them, neither2532 3756 knew1097 they the things which were spoken.3004

35 And it came1096 to pass, that as he was come1448 near1448 to Jericho,2410 a certain5100 blind5185 man sat2521 by the way3598 side3844 begging:4319

36 And hearing191 the multitude3793 pass1279 by, he asked4441 what5101 it meant.1498

37 And they told518 him, that Jesus2424 of Nazareth3478 passes3928 by.

38 And he cried,994 saying,3004 Jesus,2424 you Son5207 of David,1138 have mercy1653 on me.

39 And they which went4254 before4254 rebuked2008 him, that he should hold4623 his peace:4623 but he cried2896 so3123 much4183 the more,3123 You son5207 of David,1138 have mercy1653 on me.

40 And Jesus2424 stood,2476 and commanded2753 him to be brought71 to him: and when he was come1448 near,1448 he asked1905 him,

41 Saying,3004 What5101 will2309 you that I shall do4160 to you? And he said,2036 Lord,2962 that I may receive308 my sight.308

42 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Receive308 your sight:308 your faith4102 has saved4982 you.

43 And immediately3916 he received308 his sight,308 and followed190 him, glorifying1392 God:2316 and all3956 the people,2992 when they saw1492 it, gave1325 praise136 to God.2316

19

1 And Jesus entered1525 and passed1330 through1330 Jericho.2410

2 And, behold,2400 there was a man435 named2564 Zacchaeus,2195 which2532 846 was the chief754 among the publicans,754 and he was rich.4145

3 And he sought2212 to see1492 Jesus2424 who5101 he was; and could1410 not for the press,3793 because3754 he was little3398 of stature.2244

4 And he ran4390 before,1715 and climbed305 up into1909 a sycomore4809 tree4809 to see1492 him: for he was to pass1330 that way.

5 And when5613 Jesus2424 came2064 to the place,5117 he looked308 up, and saw1492 him, and said2036 to him, Zacchaeus,2195 make4692 haste,4692 and come2597 down;2597 for to day4594 I must1163 abide3306 at1722 your house.3624

6 And he made4692 haste,4692 and came2597 down,2597 and received5264 him joyfully.5463

7 And when they saw1492 it, they all537 murmured,1234 saying,3004 That he was gone1525 to be guest2647 with a man435 that is a sinner.268

8 And Zacchaeus2195 stood,2476 and said2036 to the Lord:2962 Behold,2400 Lord,2962 the half2255 of my goods5224 I give1325 to the poor;4434 and if1487 I have taken any5100 thing from any1536 man by false4811 accusation,4811 I restore591 him fourfold.5073

9 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, This4594 day4594 is salvation4991 come1096 to this5129 house,3624 as much2530 as he also2532 is a son5207 of Abraham.11

10 For the Son5207 of man444 is come2064 to seek2212 and to save4982 that which was lost.622

11 And as they heard191 these5023 things, he added4369 and spoke2036 a parable,3850 because1223 he was near1451 to Jerusalem,2419 and because they thought1380 that the kingdom932 of God2316 should3195 immediately3916 appear.398

12 He said2036 therefore,3767 A certain5100 nobleman2104 444 went4198 into1519 a far3117 country5561 to receive2983 for himself1438 a kingdom,932 and to return.5290

13 And he called2564 his ten1176 servants,1401 and delivered1325 them ten1176 pounds,3414 and said2036 to them, Occupy4231 till2193 I come.2064

14 But his citizens4177 hated3404 him, and sent649 a message4242 after3694 him, saying,3004 We will2309 not have this5126 man to reign936 over1909 us.

15 And it came1096 to pass, that when1722 3588 he was returned,1880 having received2983 the kingdom,932 then2532 he commanded2036 these5128 servants1401 to be called5455 to him, to whom3739 he had given1325 the money,694 that he might know1097 how5101 much every5101 man had gained1281 by trading.1281

16 Then1161 came3854 the first,4413 saying,3004 Lord,2962 your pound3414 has gained4333 ten1176 pounds.3414

17 And he said2036 to him, Well,2095 you good18 servant:1401 because3754 you have been1096 faithful4103 in a very1646 little,1646 have2192 you authority1849 over1883 ten1176 cities.4172

18 And the second1208 came,2064 saying,3004 Lord,2962 your pound3414 has gained4160 five4002 pounds.3414

19 And he said2036 likewise2532 to him, Be you also2532 over1883 five4002 cities.4172

20 And another2087 came,2064 saying,3004 Lord,2962 behold,2400 here is your pound,3414 which3739 I have2192 kept2192 laid606 up in a napkin:4676

21 For I feared5399 you, because3754 you are an austere840 man:444 you take142 up that you layed5087 not down, and reap2325 that you did not sow.4687

22 And he said3004 to him, Out of your4675 own mouth4750 will I judge2919 you, you wicked4190 servant.1401 You knew1492 that I was an austere840 man,444 taking142 up that I laid5087 not down, and reaping2325 that I did not sow:4687

23 Why1302 then2532 gave1325 not you my money694 into1909 the bank,5132 that at my coming2064 I might have required4238 my846 own with usury?5110

24 And he said2036 to them that stood3936 by, Take142 from him the pound,3414 and give1325 it to him that has2192 ten1176 pounds.3414

25 (And they said2036 to him, Lord,2962 he has2192 ten1176 pounds.3414)

26 For I say3004 to you, That to every3956 one which3588 has2192 shall be given;1325 and from him that has2192 not, even2532 that he has2192 shall be taken142 away from him.

27 But those1565 my3450 enemies,2190 which3588 would2309 not that I should reign936 over1909 them, bring71 here,5602 and slay2695 them before1715 me.

28 And when he had thus5023 spoken,2036 he went4198 before,1715 ascending305 up to Jerusalem.2414

29 And it came1096 to pass, when5613 he was come1448 near1448 to Bethphage967 and Bethany,963 at4314 the mount3735 called2564 the mount of Olives,1636 he sent649 two1417 of his disciples,3101

30 Saying,2036 Go5217 you into1519 the village2968 over2713 against2713 you; in the which3739 at your entering1531 you shall find2147 a colt4454 tied,1210 where on1909 3739 yet never3762 man444 sat:2523 loose3089 him, and bring71 him here.

31 And if1437 any5100 man ask2065 you, Why1302 do you loose3089 him? thus3779 shall you say2046 to him, Because3754 the Lord2962 has2192 need5532 of him.

32 And they that were sent649 went565 their way, and found2147 even2531 as he had said2036 to them.

33 And as they were loosing3089 the colt,4454 the owners2962 thereof said2036 to them, Why5101 loose3089 you the colt?4454

34 And they said,2036 The Lord2962 has2192 need5532 of him.

35 And they brought71 him to Jesus:2424 and they cast1977 their garments2440 on the colt,4454 and they set1913 Jesus2424 thereon.1913

36 And as he went,4198 they spread5291 their clothes2440 in the way.3598

37 And when he was come1448 near,1448 even2536 now2235 at4314 the descent2600 of the mount3735 of Olives,1636 the whole537 multitude4128 of the disciples3101 began756 to rejoice5463 and praise134 God2316 with a loud3173 voice5456 for all3956 the mighty1411 works that they had seen;1492

38 Saying,3004 Blessed2127 be the King935 that comes2064 in the name3686 of the Lord:2962 peace1515 in heaven,3772 and glory1391 in the highest.5310

39 And some5100 of the Pharisees5330 from among the multitude3793 said2036 to him, Master,1320 rebuke2008 your disciples.3101

40 And he answered611 and said2036 to them, I tell3004 you that, if1437 these3778 should hold4623 their peace,4623 the stones3037 would immediately cry2896 out.

41 And when5613 he was come1448 near,1448 he beheld1492 the city,4172 and wept2799 over1909 it,

42 Saying,3004 If1487 you had known,1097 even2532 you, at1065 least2534 in this5026 your day,2250 the things which belong to your peace!1515 but now3568 they are hid2928 from your4675 eyes.3788

43 For the days2250 shall come2240 on you, that your4675 enemies2190 shall cast4016 a trench5482 about4016 you, and compass4033 you round,4033 and keep4912 you in on3840 every3840 side,3840

44 And shall lay1474 you even with the ground,1474 and your children5043 within1722 you; and they shall not leave863 in you one stone3037 on another; because473 3739 you knew1097 not the time2540 of your visitation.1984

45 And he went1525 into1519 the temple,2411 and began756 to cast1544 out them that sold4453 therein,1722 846 and them that bought;59

46 Saying3004 to them, It is written,1125 My house3624 is the house3624 of prayer:4335 but you have made4160 it a den4693 of thieves.3027

47 And he taught2258 1321 daily2596 2250 in the temple.2411 But the chief749 priests749 and the scribes1122 and the chief4413 of the people2992 sought2212 to destroy622 him,

48 And could not find2147 what5101 they might do:4160 for all537 the people2992 were very1582 attentive1582 to hear191 him.

20

1 And it came1096 to pass, that on1722 one3391 of those1565 days,2250 as he taught1321 the people2992 in the temple,2411 and preached2097 the gospel,2097 the chief749 priests749 and the scribes1122 came2186 on him with the elders,4245

2 And spoke2036 to him, saying,3004 Tell2036 us, by what4169 authority1849 do4160 you these5023 things? or2228 who5101 is he that gave1325 you this5026 authority?1849

3 And he answered611 and said2036 to them, I will also2504 ask2065 you one1520 thing;3056 and answer2036 me:

4 The baptism908 of John,2491 was it from heaven,3772 or2228 of men?444

5 And they reasoned4817 with themselves,1438 saying,3004 If1437 we shall say,2036 From heaven;3772 he will say,2046 Why1302 then3767 believed4100 you him not?

6 But and if1437 we say,2036 Of men;444 all3956 the people2992 will stone2642 us: for they be persuaded3982 that John2491 was a prophet.4396

7 And they answered,611 that they could3361 not tell1492 from where4159 it was.

8 And Jesus2424 said2036 to them, Neither3761 tell3004 I you by what4169 authority1849 I do4160 these5023 things.

9 Then1161 began756 he to speak3004 to the people2992 this5026 parable;3850 A certain5100 man444 planted5452 a vineyard,290 and let1554 it forth1554 to farmers,1092 and went589 into a far country589 for a long2425 time.5550

10 And at1722 the season2540 he sent649 a servant1401 to the farmers,1092 that they should give1325 him of the fruit2590 of the vineyard:290 but the farmers1092 beat1194 him, and sent1821 him away1821 empty.2756

11 And again4388 he sent3992 another2087 servant:1401 and they beat1194 him also,2548 and entreated818 him shamefully,818 and sent1821 him away1821 empty.2756

12 And again4388 he sent3992 a third:5154 and they wounded5135 him also,2532 and cast1544 him out.

13 Then1161 said2036 the lord2962 of the vineyard,290 What5101 shall I do?4160 I will send3992 my beloved27 son:5207 it may2481 be they will reverence1788 him when they see1492 him.

14 But when the farmers1092 saw1492 him, they reasoned1260 among4314 themselves,1438 saying,3004 This3778 is the heir:2818 come,1205 let us kill615 him, that the inheritance2817 may be ours.2257

15 So2532 they cast1544 him out of the vineyard,290 and killed615 him. What5101 therefore3767 shall the lord2962 of the vineyard290 do4160 to them?

16 He shall come2064 and destroy622 these5128 farmers,1092 and shall give1325 the vineyard290 to others.243 And when they heard191 it, they said,2036 God3361 1096 forbid.3361 1096

17 And he beheld1689 them, and said,2036 What5101 is this5124 then3767 that is written,1125 The stone3037 which3739 the builders3618 rejected,593 the same3778 is become1096 1519 the head2776 of the corner?1137

18 Whoever3956 3588 shall fall4098 on that stone3037 shall be broken;4917 but on1909 whomsoever3739 302 it shall fall,4098 it will grind3039 him to powder.3039

19 And the chief749 priests749 and the scribes1122 the same846 hour5610 sought2212 to lay1911 hands5495 on1909 him; and they feared5399 the people:2992 for they perceived1097 that he had spoken2036 this5026 parable3850 against4314 them.

20 And they watched3906 him, and sent649 forth649 spies,1455 which should feign5271 themselves1438 just1342 men, that they might take1949 hold1949 of his words,3056 that so1519 they might deliver3860 him to the power746 and authority1849 of the governor.2230

21 And they asked1905 him, saying,3004 Master,1320 we know1492 that you say3004 and teach1321 rightly,3723 neither2532 3756 accept2983 you the person4383 of any, but teach1321 the way3598 of God2316 truly:1909

22 Is it lawful1832 for us to give1325 tribute5411 to Caesar,2541 or2228 no?3756

23 But he perceived2657 their craftiness,3834 and said2036 to them, Why5101 tempt3985 you me?

24 Show1925 me a penny.1220 Whose5100 image1504 and superscription1923 has2192 it? They answered611 and said,2036 Caesar's.2541

25 And he said2036 to them, Render591 therefore5106 to Caesar2541 the things which be Caesar's,2541 and to God2316 the things which be God's.2316

26 And they could2480 not take1949 hold1949 of his words4487 before1726 the people:2992 and they marveled2296 at1909 his answer,612 and held4601 their peace.4601

27 Then1161 came4334 to him certain5100 of the Sadducees,4523 which3588 deny483 that there is any3361 resurrection;386 and they asked1905 him,

28 Saying,3004 Master,1320 Moses3475 wrote1125 to us, If1437 any5100 man's5100 brother80 die,599 having2192 a wife,1135 and he die599 without815 children,815 that his brother80 should take2983 his wife,1135 and raise1817 up seed4690 to his brother.80

29 There were therefore3767 seven2033 brothers:80 and the first4413 took2983 a wife,1135 and died599 without815 children.815

30 And the second1208 took2983 her to wife,1135 and he died599 childless.815

31 And the third5154 took2983 her; and in like5615 manner5615 the seven2033 also:2532 and they left2641 no3756 children,5043 and died.599

32 Last5305 of all3956 the woman1135 died599 also.2532

33 Therefore3767 in the resurrection386 whose5100 wife1135 of them is she? for seven2033 had2192 her to wife.1135

34 And Jesus2424 answering611 said2036 to them, The children5207 of this5126 world165 marry,1060 and are given in marriage:1548

35 But they which shall be accounted2661 worthy2661 to obtain5177 that world,165 and the resurrection386 from the dead,3498 neither3777 marry,1060 nor3777 are given in marriage:1548

36 Neither3777 can1410 they die599 any2089 more:2089 for they are equal2465 to the angels;2465 and are the children5207 of God,2316 being5607 the children5207 of the resurrection.386

37 Now1161 that the dead3498 are raised,1453 even2532 Moses3475 showed3377 at1909 the bush,942 when5613 he calls3004 the Lord2962 the God2316 of Abraham,11 and the God2316 of Isaac,2464 and the God2316 of Jacob.2384

38 For he is not a God2316 of the dead,3498 but of the living:2198 for all3956 live2198 to him.

39 Then1161 certain5100 of the scribes1122 answering611 said,2036 Master,1320 you have well2573 said.2036

40 And after2089 that they dared5111 not ask1905 him any3762 question at all.

41 And he said2036 to them, How4459 say2036 they that Christ5547 is David's1138 son?5207

42 And David1138 himself846 said3004 in the book976 of Psalms,5568 The LORD2962 said2036 to my Lord,2962 Sit2521 you on1537 my right1188 hand,

43 Till2193 I make5087 your4675 enemies2190 your footstool.5286

44 David1138 therefore calls2564 him Lord,2962 how4459 is he then2532 his son?5207

45 Then1161 in the audience191 of all3956 the people2992 he said2036 to his disciples,3101

46 Beware4337 of the scribes,1122 which3588 desire2309 to walk4043 in long robes,4749 and love5368 greetings783 in the markets,58 and the highest4410 seats4410 in the synagogues,4864 and the chief4411 rooms4411 at1722 feasts;1173

47 Which3739 devour2719 widows'5503 houses,3614 and for a show4392 make4336 long3117 prayers:4336 the same3778 shall receive2983 greater4055 damnation.2917

21

1 And he looked308 up, and saw1492 the rich4145 men casting906 their gifts1435 into1519 the treasury.1049

2 And he saw1492 also2532 a certain5100 poor3998 widow5503 casting906 in thither1563 two1417 mites.3016

3 And he said,2036 Of a truth230 I say3004 to you, that this3778 poor4434 widow5503 has cast906 in more4119 than they all:3956

4 For all537 these3778 have of their abundance4052 cast906 in to the offerings1435 of God:2316 but she of her penury5303 has cast906 in all537 the living979 that she had.2192

5 And as some5100 spoke3004 of the temple,2411 how3754 it was adorned2885 with goodly2573 stones3037 and gifts,334 he said,2036

6 As for these5023 things which3739 you behold,2334 the days2250 will come,2064 in the which3739 there shall not be left863 one stone3037 on another, that shall not be thrown2647 down.2647

7 And they asked1905 him, saying,3004 Master,1320 but when4218 shall these5023 things be? and what5101 sign4592 will there be when3752 these5023 things shall come1096 to pass?

8 And he said,2036 Take heed991 that you be not deceived:4105 for many4183 shall come2064 in my name,3686 saying,3004 I am1510 Christ; and the time2540 draws near:1448 go4198 you not therefore3767 after3694 them.

9 But when3752 you shall hear191 of wars4171 and commotions,181 be not terrified:4422 for these5023 things must1163 first4412 come1096 to pass; but the end5056 is not by and by.

10 Then5119 said3004 he to them, Nation1484 shall rise1453 against1909 nation,1484 and kingdom932 against1909 kingdom:932

11 And great3173 earthquakes4578 shall be in divers places,5117 and famines,3042 and pestilences;3061 and fearful5400 sights5400 and great3173 signs4592 shall there be from heaven.3772

12 But before4253 all537 these,5130 they shall lay1911 their hands5495 on1909 you, and persecute1377 you, delivering3860 you up to the synagogues,4864 and into prisons,5438 being brought71 before1909 kings935 and rulers2232 for my name's3686 sake.1752

13 And it shall turn576 to you for a testimony.3142

14 Settle5087 it therefore3767 in your5216 hearts,2588 not to meditate4304 before4304 what you shall answer:626

15 For I will give1325 you a mouth4750 and wisdom,4678 which3739 all3956 your5213 adversaries480 shall not be able1410 to gainsay471 nor3761 resist.436

16 And you shall be betrayed3860 both2532 by parents,1118 and brothers,80 and kinfolks,4773 and friends;5384 and some of you shall they cause2289 to be put2289 to death.2289

17 And you shall be hated3404 of all3956 men for my name's3686 sake.

18 But there shall not an hair2359 of your5216 head2776 perish.622

19 In your5216 patience5281 possess2932 you your5216 souls.5590

20 And when3752 you shall see1492 Jerusalem2419 compassed2944 with armies,4760 then5119 know1097 that the desolation2050 thereof846 is near.1448

21 Then5119 let them which are in Judaea2449 flee5343 to the mountains;3735 and let them which are in the middle3319 of it depart1633 out; and let not them that are in the countries5561 enter1525 thereinto.1519 846

22 For these3778 be the days2250 of vengeance,1557 that all3956 things which3588 are written1125 may be fulfilled.4137

23 But woe3759 to them that are with child,1722 1064 2192 and to them that give suck,2337 in those1565 days!2250 for there shall be great3173 distress318 in the land,1093 and wrath3709 on this5129 people.2992

24 And they shall fall4098 by the edge4750 of the sword,3162 and shall be led163 away captive163 into1519 all3956 nations:1484 and Jerusalem2419 shall be trodden3961 down of the Gentiles,1484 until891 the times2540 of the Gentiles1484 be fulfilled.4137

25 And there shall be signs4592 in the sun,2246 and in the moon,4582 and in the stars;798 and on the earth1093 distress4928 of nations,1484 with perplexity;640 the sea2281 and the waves4535 roaring;2278

26 Men's444 hearts674 failing674 them for fear,5401 and for looking4329 after4329 those3588 things which are coming1904 on1904 the earth:3625 for the powers1411 of heaven3772 shall be shaken.4531

27 And then5119 shall they see3700 the Son5207 of man444 coming2064 in a cloud3507 with power1411 and great4183 glory.1391

28 And when these5130 things begin756 to come1096 to pass, then look352 up, and lift1869 up your5216 heads;2776 for your5216 redemption629 draws near.1448

29 And he spoke2036 to them a parable;3850 Behold1492 the fig4808 tree,4808 and all3956 the trees;1186

30 When3752 they now2235 shoot4261 forth,4261 you see991 and know1097 of your1438 own selves1438 that summer2330 is now2235 near1451 at1451 hand.

31 So3779 likewise2532 you, when3752 you see1492 these5023 things come1096 to pass, know1097 you that the kingdom932 of God2316 is near1451 at1451 hand.

32 Truly281 I say3004 to you, This3778 generation1074 shall not pass3928 away, till2193 all3956 be fulfilled.1096

33 Heaven3772 and earth1093 shall pass3928 away: but my words3056 shall not pass3928 away.

34 And take heed4337 to yourselves,1438 lest3379 at3379 any3379 time3379 your5216 hearts2588 be overcharged925 with surfeiting,2897 and drunkenness,3178 and cares3308 of this life,982 and so that day2250 come2186 on you unawares.160

35 For as a snare3803 shall it come1904 on1909 all3956 them that dwell2521 on1909 the face4383 of the whole3956 earth.1093

36 Watch69 you therefore,3767 and pray1189 always,1722 3956 2540 that you may be accounted2661 worthy2661 to escape1628 all3956 these5023 things that shall come1096 to pass, and to stand2476 before1715 the Son5207 of man.444

37 And in the day2250 time2250 he was teaching1321 in the temple;2411 and at night3571 he went1831 out, and stayed835 in the mount3735 that is called2564 the mount of Olives.1636

38 And all3956 the people2992 came3719 early3719 in the morning to him in the temple,2411 for to hear191 him.

22

1 Now1161 the feast1859 of unleavened106 bread drew near,1448 which is called3004 the Passover.3957

2 And the chief749 priests749 and scribes1122 sought2212 how4459 they might kill337 him; for they feared5399 the people.2992

3 Then1161 entered1525 Satan4567 into1519 Judas2455 surnamed1941 Iscariot,2469 being5607 of the number706 of the twelve.1427

4 And he went565 his way, and communed4814 with the chief749 priests749 and captains,4755 how4459 he might betray3860 him to them.

5 And they were glad,5463 and covenanted4934 to give1325 him money.694

6 And he promised,1843 and sought2212 opportunity2120 to betray3860 him to them in the absence817 of the multitude.3793

7 Then1161 came2064 the day2250 of unleavened106 bread, when1722 3739 the passover3957 must1163 be killed.2380

8 And he sent649 Peter4074 and John,2491 saying,2036 Go4198 and prepare2090 us the passover,3957 that we may eat.5315

9 And they said2036 to him, Where4226 will2309 you that we prepare?2090

10 And he said2036 to them, Behold,2400 when you are entered1525 into1519 the city,4172 there shall a man444 meet4876 you, bearing941 a pitcher2765 of water;5204 follow190 him into1519 the house3614 where3757 he enters1531 in.

11 And you shall say2046 to the manager3611 of the house,3614 The Master1320 said3004 to you, Where4226 is the guest room,2646 where3699 I shall eat5315 the passover3957 with my disciples?3101

12 And he shall show1166 you a large3173 upper508 room furnished:4766 there1563 make2090 ready.2090

13 And they went,565 and found2147 as he had said2046 to them: and they made2090 ready2090 the passover.3957

14 And when3753 3588 the hour5610 was come,1096 he sat377 down,377 and the twelve1427 apostles652 with him.

15 And he said2036 to them, With desire1939 I have desired1937 to eat5315 this5124 passover3957 with you before4253 I suffer:3958

16 For I say3004 to you, I will not any3765 more3765 eat5315 thereof,1538 846 until2193 it be fulfilled4137 in the kingdom932 of God.2316

17 And he took1209 the cup,4221 and gave thanks,2168 and said,2036 Take2983 this,5124 and divide1266 it among yourselves:1438

18 For I say3004 to you, I will not drink4095 of the fruit1081 of the vine,288 until2193 the kingdom932 of God2316 shall come.2064

19 And he took2983 bread,740 and gave thanks,2168 and broke2806 it, and gave1325 to them, saying,3004 This5124 is my body4983 which3588 is given1325 for you: this5124 do4160 in remembrance364 of me.

20 Likewise5615 also2532 the cup4221 after3326 supper,1172 saying,3004 This5124 cup4221 is the new2537 testament1242 in my blood,129 which3588 is shed1632 for you.

21 But, behold,2400 the hand5495 of him that betrays3860 me is with me on1909 the table.5132

22 And truly3303 the Son5207 of man444 goes,4198 as it was determined:3724 but woe3759 to that man444 by whom3739 he is betrayed!3860

23 And they began756 to inquire4802 among4314 themselves,1438 which5101 of them it was that should3195 do4238 this5124 thing.

24 And there was also2532 a strife5379 among1722 them, which5101 of them should be accounted1380 the greatest.3187

25 And he said2036 to them, The kings935 of the Gentiles1484 exercise2961 lordship2961 over them; and they that exercise1850 authority1850 on them are called2564 benefactors.2110

26 But you shall not be so:3779 but he that is greatest3187 among1722 you, let him be as the younger;3501 and he that is chief,2233 as he that does serve.1247

27 For whether5101 is greater,3187 he that sits345 at345 meat, or2228 he that serves?1247 is not he that sits345 at345 meat? but I am1510 among1722 3319 you as he that serves.1247

28 You are they which have continued1265 with me in my temptations.3986

29 And I appoint1303 to you a kingdom,932 as my Father3962 has appointed1303 to me;

30 That you may eat2068 and drink4095 at1909 my table5132 in my kingdom,932 and sit2523 on1909 thrones2362 judging2919 the twelve1427 tribes5443 of Israel.2474

31 And the Lord2962 said,2036 Simon,4613 Simon,4613 behold,2400 Satan4567 has desired1809 to have you, that he may sift4617 you as wheat:4621

32 But I have prayed1189 for you, that your faith4102 fail1587 not: and when4218 you are converted,1994 strengthen4741 your brothers.80

33 And he said2036 to him, Lord,2962 I am1510 ready2092 to go4198 with you, both2532 into1519 prison,5438 and to death.2288

34 And he said,3004 I tell3004 you, Peter,4074 the cock220 shall not crow5455 this4594 day,4594 before4250 2228 that you shall thrice5151 deny533 that you know1492 me.

35 And he said2036 to them, When3753 I sent649 you without817 purse,905 and money,4082 and shoes,5266 lacked5302 you any5100 thing? And they said,2036 Nothing.3762

36 Then3767 said2036 he to them, But now,3568 he that has2192 a purse,905 let him take142 it, and likewise3668 his money:4082 and he that has2192 no3361 sword,3162 let him sell4453 his garment,2440 and buy59 one.

37 For I say3004 to you, that this5124 that is written1125 must1163 yet2089 be accomplished5055 in me, And he was reckoned3049 among3326 the transgressors:459 for the things concerning4012 me have2192 an end.5056

38 And they said,2036 Lord,2962 behold,2400 here5602 are two1417 swords.3162 And he said2036 to them, It is enough.2425

39 And he came1831 out, and went,4198 as he was wont,2596 1485 to the mount3735 of Olives;1636 and his disciples3101 also2532 followed190 him.

40 And when he was at1909 the place,5117 he said2036 to them, Pray4336 that you enter1525 not into1519 temptation.3986

41 And he was withdrawn645 from them about5616 a stone's3037 cast,1000 and kneeled5087 1119 down, and prayed,4336

42 Saying,3004 Father,3962 if1487 you be willing,1014 remove3911 this5124 cup4221 from me: nevertheless4133 not my will,2307 but yours,4674 be done.1096

43 And there appeared3700 an angel32 to him from heaven,3772 strengthening1765 him.

44 And being1096 in an agony74 he prayed4336 more1617 earnestly:1617 and his sweat2402 was as it were great drops2361 of blood129 falling2597 down2597 to the ground.1093

45 And when he rose450 up from prayer,4335 and was come2064 to his disciples,3101 he found2147 them sleeping2837 for sorrow,3077

46 And said2036 to them, Why5101 sleep2518 you? rise450 and pray,4336 lest2443 3361 you enter1525 into1519 temptation.3986

47 And while he yet2089 spoke,2980 behold2400 a multitude,3793 and he that was called3004 Judas,2455 one1520 of the twelve,1427 went4281 before4281 them, and drew near1448 to Jesus2424 to kiss5368 him.

48 But Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Judas,2455 betray3860 you the Son5207 of man444 with a kiss?5370

49 When they which were about4012 him saw1492 what3588 would follow,2071 they said2036 to him, Lord,2962 shall we smite3960 with the sword?3162

50 And one1520 of them smote3960 the servant1401 of the high749 priest,749 and cut851 off851 his right1188 ear.3775

51 And Jesus2424 answered611 and said,2036 Suffer1439 you thus5127 far.2193 And he touched680 his ear,5621 and healed2390 him.

52 Then1161 Jesus2424 said2036 to the chief749 priests,749 and captains4755 of the temple,2411 and the elders,4245 which were come3854 to him, Be you come1831 out, as against1909 a thief,3027 with swords3162 and staves?3586

53 When I was daily2596 2250 with you in the temple,2411 you stretched1614 forth1614 no3756 hands5495 against1909 me: but this3778 is your5216 hour,5610 and the power1849 of darkness.4655

54 Then1161 took4815 they him, and led71 him, and brought1521 him into1519 the high749 priest's749 house.3624 And Peter4074 followed190 afar3113 off.

55 And when they had kindled681 a fire4442 in the middle3319 of the hall,833 and were set4776 down4776 together,4776 Peter4074 sat2521 down2521 among3319 them.

56 But a certain5100 maid3814 beheld1492 him as he sat2521 by the fire,5457 and earnestly816 looked816 on him, and said,2036 This3778 man was also2532 with him.

57 And he denied720 him, saying,3004 Woman,1135 I know1492 him not.

58 And after3326 a little1024 while another2087 saw1492 him, and said,5346 You are1488 also2532 of them. And Peter4074 said,2036 Man,444 I am1510 not.

59 And about5616 the space1339 of one3391 hour5610 after another243 confidently1340 affirmed,1340 saying,3004 Of a truth225 this3778 fellow also2532 was with him: for he is a Galilaean.1057

60 And Peter4074 said,2036 Man,444 I know1492 not what3739 you say.3004 And immediately,3916 while he yet2089 spoke,2980 the cock220 crew.5455

61 And the Lord2962 turned,4762 and looked1689 on Peter.4074 And Peter4074 remembered5279 the word3056 of the Lord,2962 how5613 he had said2036 to him, Before4250 the cock220 crow,5455 you shall deny533 me thrice.5151

62 And Peter4074 went1831 out, and wept2799 bitterly.4090

63 And the men435 that held4912 Jesus2424 mocked1702 him, and smote1194 him.

64 And when they had blindfolded4028 him, they struck5180 him on the face,4383 and asked1905 him, saying,3004 Prophesy,4395 who5101 is it that smote3817 you?

65 And many4183 other2087 things blasphemously987 spoke3004 they against1519 him.

66 And as soon as it was day,2250 the elders4244 of the people2992 and the chief749 priests749 and the scribes1122 came4863 together,4863 and led321 him into1519 their council,4892 saying,3004

67 Are1488 you the Christ?5547 tell2036 us. And he said2036 to them, If1437 I tell2036 you, you will not believe:4100

68 And if1437 I also2532 ask2065 you, you will not answer611 me, nor2228 let630 me go.630

69 Hereafter575 3568 shall the Son5207 of man444 sit2521 on1537 the right1188 hand of the power1411 of God.2316

70 Then1161 said5346 they all,3956 Are1488 you then3767 the Son5207 of God?2316 And he said2036 to them, You say3004 that I am.1510

71 And they said,2036 What5101 need2192 5532 we any2089 further2089 witness?3141 for we ourselves have heard191 of his own1438 mouth.4750

23

1 And the whole537 multitude4128 of them arose,450 and led71 him to Pilate.4091

2 And they began756 to accuse2723 him, saying,3004 We found2147 this5126 fellow perverting1294 the nation,1484 and forbidding2967 to give1325 tribute5411 to Caesar,2541 saying3004 that he himself1438 is Christ5547 a King.935

3 And Pilate4091 asked1905 him, saying,3004 Are1488 you the King935 of the Jews?2453 And he answered611 him and said,5346 You say3004 it.

4 Then1161 said2036 Pilate4091 to the chief749 priests749 and to the people,3793 I find2147 no3762 fault158 in this5129 man.444

5 And they were the more2001 fierce,2001 saying,3004 He stirs383 up the people,2992 teaching1321 throughout2596 all3650 Jewry,2449 beginning756 from Galilee1056 to this5602 place.5602

6 When Pilate4091 heard191 of Galilee,1056 he asked1905 whether1487 the man444 were a Galilaean.1057

7 And as soon as he knew1921 that he belonged1510 to Herod's2264 jurisdiction,1849 he sent375 him to Herod,2264 who himself846 also2532 was at1722 Jerusalem2414 at1722 that time.2250

8 And when Herod2264 saw1492 Jesus,2424 he was exceeding3029 glad:5463 for he was desirous2309 to see1492 him of a long2425 season, because1223 he had heard191 many4183 things of him; and he hoped1679 to have seen1492 some5100 miracle4592 done1096 by him.

9 Then1161 he questioned1905 with him in many2425 words;3056 but he answered611 him nothing.3762

10 And the chief749 priests749 and scribes1122 stood2476 and vehemently2159 accused2723 him.

11 And Herod2264 with his men4753 of war4753 set1848 him at1848 nothing,1848 and mocked1702 him, and arrayed4016 him in a gorgeous2986 robe,2066 and sent375 him again375 to Pilate.4091

12 And the same846 day2250 Pilate4091 and Herod2264 were made1096 friends5384 together:3326 240 for before4391 they were at1722 enmity2189 between4314 themselves.1438

13 And Pilate,4091 when he had called4779 together4779 the chief749 priests749 and the rulers758 and the people,2992

14 Said2036 to them, You have brought4374 this5129 man444 to me, as one that perverts654 the people:2992 and, behold,2400 I, having examined350 him before1799 you, have found2147 no3762 fault158 in this5126 man444 touching those things whereof you accuse2723 him:

15 No,235 nor3761 yet Herod:2264 for I sent375 you to him; and, see,2400 nothing3762 worthy514 of death2288 is done4238 to him.

16 I will therefore3767 chastise3811 him, and release630 him.

17 (For of necessity2192 318 he must release630 one1520 to them at2596 the feast.1859)

18 And they cried349 out all3829 at3826 once,3826 saying,3004 Away with this5126 man, and release630 to us Barabbas:912

19 (Who3748 for a certain5100 sedition4714 made1096 in the city,4172 and for murder,5408 was cast906 into1519 prison.5438)

20 Pilate4091 therefore,3767 willing2309 to release630 Jesus,2424 spoke4377 again3825 to them.

21 But they cried,2019 saying,3004 Crucify4717 him, crucify4717 him.

22 And he said2036 to them the third5154 time, Why,1063 what5101 evil2556 has he done?4160 I have found2147 no3762 cause158 of death2288 in him: I will therefore3767 chastise3811 him, and let him go.630

23 And they were instant1945 with loud3173 voices,5456 requiring154 that he might be crucified.4717 And the voices5456 of them and of the chief749 priests749 prevailed.2729

24 And Pilate4091 gave sentence1948 that it should be as they required.155

25 And he released630 to them him that for sedition4714 and murder5408 was cast906 into1519 prison,5438 whom3739 they had desired;154 but he delivered3860 Jesus2424 to their will.2307

26 And as they led520 him away,520 they laid hold1949 on one5100 Simon,4613 a Cyrenian,2956 coming2064 out of the country,68 and on2007 him they laid2007 the cross,4716 that he might bear5342 it after3693 Jesus.2424

27 And there followed190 him a great4183 company4128 of people,2992 and of women,1135 which3739 also2532 bewailed2875 and lamented2354 him.

28 But Jesus2424 turning4762 to them said,2036 Daughters2364 of Jerusalem,2419 weep2799 not for me, but weep2799 for yourselves,1438 and for your5216 children.5043

29 For, behold,2400 the days2250 are coming,2064 in the which3739 they shall say,2046 Blessed3107 are the barren,4723 and the wombs2836 that never3756 bore,1080 and the breasts3149 which3739 never3756 gave suck.2337

30 Then5119 shall they begin756 to say3004 to the mountains,3735 Fall4098 on1909 us; and to the hills,1015 Cover2572 us.

31 For if1487 they do4160 these5023 things in a green5200 tree,3586 what5101 shall be done1096 in the dry?3584

32 And there were also2532 two1417 other,2087 malefactors,2557 led71 with him to be put337 to death.337

33 And when3753 they were come565 to the place,5117 which3588 is called2564 Calvary,2898 there1563 they crucified4717 him, and the malefactors,2557 one3739 3303 on1537 the right1188 hand, and the other3739 on1537 the left.710

34 Then1161 said3004 Jesus,2424 Father,3962 forgive863 them; for they know1492 not what5101 they do.4160 And they parted1266 his raiment,2440 and cast906 lots.2819

35 And the people2992 stood2476 beholding.2334 And the rulers758 also2532 with them derided1592 him, saying,3004 He saved4982 others;243 let him save4982 himself,1438 if1487 he be Christ,5547 the chosen1588 of God.2316

36 And the soldiers4757 also2532 mocked1702 him, coming4334 to him, and offering4374 him vinegar,3690

37 And saying,3004 If1487 you be the king935 of the Jews,2453 save4982 yourself.4572

38 And a superscription1923 also2532 was written1125 over1909 him in letters1121 of Greek,1673 and Latin,4513 and Hebrew,1444 THIS3778 IS THE KING935 OF THE JEWS.2453

39 And one1520 of the malefactors2557 which were hanged2910 railed987 on him, saying,3004 If1487 you be Christ,5547 save4982 yourself4572 and us.

40 But the other2087 answering611 rebuked2008 him, saying,3004 Do not you fear5399 God,2316 seeing3754 you are1488 in the same846 condemnation?2917

41 And we indeed3303 justly;1346 for we receive618 the due514 reward514 of our deeds:3739 4238 but this3778 man has done4238 nothing3762 amiss.824

42 And he said3004 to Jesus,2424 Lord,2962 remember3415 me when3752 you come2064 into1722 your kingdom.932

43 And Jesus2424 said2036 to him, Truly281 I say3004 to you, To day4594 shall you be with me in paradise.3857

44 And it was about5616 the sixth1623 hour,5610 and there was a darkness4655 over1909 all3650 the earth1093 until2193 the ninth1766 hour.5610

45 And the sun2246 was darkened,4654 and the veil2665 of the temple3485 was rent4977 in the middle.3319

46 And when Jesus2424 had cried5455 with a loud3173 voice,5456 he said,2036 Father,3962 into1519 your hands5495 I commend3908 my spirit:4151 and having said2036 thus,3778 he gave up the ghost.1606

47 Now1161 when the centurion1543 saw1492 what3588 was done,1096 he glorified1392 God,2316 saying,3004 Certainly3689 this3778 was a righteous1342 man.444

48 And all3956 the people3793 that came4836 together4836 to that sight,2335 beholding2334 the things which were done,1096 smote5180 their breasts,4738 and returned.5290

49 And all3956 his acquaintance,1110 and the women1135 that followed4870 him from Galilee,1056 stood2476 afar3113 off, beholding3708 these5023 things.

50 And, behold,2400 there was a man435 named3686 Joseph,2501 a counselor;1010 and he was a good18 man,435 and a just:1342

51 (The same3778 had not consented4784 to the counsel1012 and deed4234 of them;) he was of Arimathaea,707 a city4172 of the Jews:2453 who3739 also2532 himself846 waited4327 for the kingdom932 of God.2316

52 This3778 man went4334 to Pilate,4091 and begged154 the body4983 of Jesus.2424

53 And he took2507 it down,2507 and wrapped1794 it in linen,4616 and laid5087 it in a sepulcher3418 that was hewn2991 in stone,2991 wherein3757 never3764 man3762 before3764 was laid.2749

54 And that day2250 was the preparation,3904 and the sabbath4521 drew2020 on.2020

55 And the women1135 also,2532 which3748 came4905 with him from Galilee,1056 followed2628 after,2628 and beheld2300 the sepulcher,3419 and how5613 his body4983 was laid.5087

56 And they returned,5290 and prepared2090 spices759 and ointments;3464 and rested2270 the sabbath4521 day according2596 to the commandment.1785

24

1 Now2532 on the first3391 day of the week,4521 very early3722 in the morning, they came2064 to the sepulcher,3418 bringing5342 the spices759 which3739 they had prepared,2090 and certain others with them.

2 And they found2147 the stone3037 rolled617 away617 from the sepulcher.3419

3 And they entered1525 in, and found2147 not the body4983 of the Lord2962 Jesus.2424

4 And it came1096 to pass, as they were much1280 perplexed1280 thereabout,4012 5127 behold,2400 two1417 men435 stood2186 by them in shining797 garments:2067

5 And as they were afraid,1719 and bowed2827 down their faces4383 to the earth,1093 they said2036 to them, Why5101 seek2212 you the living2198 among3326 the dead?3498

6 He is not here,5602 but is risen:1453 remember3415 how5613 he spoke2980 to you when he was yet2089 in Galilee,1056

7 Saying,3004 The Son5207 of man444 must1163 be delivered3860 into1519 the hands5495 of sinful268 men,444 and be crucified,4717 and the third5154 day2250 rise450 again.450

8 And they remembered3415 his words,4487

9 And returned5290 from the sepulcher,3419 and told518 all3956 these5023 things to the eleven,1733 and to all3956 the rest.3062

10 It was Mary3137 Magdalene 3094and Joanna,2489 and Mary3137 the mother of James,2385 and other3062 women that were with them, which3739 told3004 these5023 things to the apostles.652

11 And their words4487 seemed5316 to them as idle3026 tales,3026 and they believed569 them not.

12 Then1161 arose450 Peter,4074 and ran5143 to the sepulcher;3419 and stooping3879 down,3879 he beheld991 the linen3608 clothes3608 laid2749 by themselves,3441 and departed,565 wondering2296 in himself1438 at that which was come1096 to pass.

13 And, behold,2400 two1417 of them went4198 that same846 day2250 to a village2968 called3686 Emmaus,1695 which was from Jerusalem2419 about three score1835 furlongs.4712

14 And they talked3656 together4314 240 of all3956 these5130 things which had happened.4819

15 And it came1096 to pass, that, while1722 3588 they communed3656 together and reasoned,4802 Jesus2424 himself846 drew near,1448 and went4848 with them.

16 But their eyes3788 were held2902 that they should not know1921 him.

17 And he said2036 to them, What5101 manner of communications3056 are these3778 that you have474 one240 to another,240 as you walk,4043 and are sad?4659

18 And the one1520 of them, whose3739 name3686 was Cleopas,2810 answering611 said2036 to him, Are you only3441 a stranger3939 in Jerusalem,2419 and have not known1097 the things which are come1096 to pass there1722 846 in these5025 days?2250

19 And he said2036 to them, What4169 things? And they said2036 to him, Concerning4012 Jesus2424 of Nazareth,3478 which3739 was a prophet4396 mighty1415 in deed2041 and word3056 before1726 God2316 and all3956 the people:2992

20 And how3704 the chief749 priests749 and our rulers758 delivered3860 him to be condemned1519 2917 to death,2288 and have474 crucified4717 him.

21 But we trusted1679 that it had been2076 he which should3195 have474 redeemed3084 Israel:2474 and beside4862 all3956 this,5125 to day4594 is the third5154 day2250 since575 these5023 things were done.1096

22 Yes,235 and certain5100 women1135 also2532 of our company made1839 us astonished,1839 which were early3721 at1909 the sepulcher;3419

23 And when they found2147 not his body,4983 they came,2064 saying,3004 that they had also2532 seen3708 a vision3701 of angels,32 which3739 said3004 that he was alive.2198

24 And certain5100 of them which were with us went565 to the sepulcher,3419 and found2147 it even3779 so3779 as the women1135 had said:2036 but him they saw1492 not.

25 Then1161 he said2036 to them, O fools,453 and slow1021 of heart2588 to believe4100 1909 all3956 that the prophets4396 have spoken:2980

26 Ought1163 not Christ5547 to have suffered3958 these5023 things, and to enter1525 into1519 his glory?1391

27 And beginning756 at575 Moses3475 and all3956 the prophets,4396 he expounded1329 to them in all3956 the scriptures1124 the things concerning4012 himself.1438

28 And they drew near1448 to the village,2968 where3757 they went:4198 and he made4364 as though he would have gone4198 further.4206

29 But they constrained3849 him, saying,3004 Abide3306 with us: for it is toward4314 evening,2073 and the day2250 is far spent.2827 And he went1525 in to tarry3306 with them.

30 And it came1096 to pass, as he sat2625 at2625 meat with them, he took2983 bread,740 and blessed2127 it, and broke,2806 and gave1929 to them.

31 And their eyes3788 were opened,1272 and they knew1921 him; and he vanished1096 855 out of their sight.

32 And they said2036 one240 to another,240 Did not our heart2588 burn2545 within1722 us, while5613 he talked2980 with us by the way,3598 and while5613 he opened1272 to us the scriptures?1124

33 And they rose450 up the same846 hour,5610 and returned5290 to Jerusalem,2419 and found2147 the eleven1733 gathered4867 together,4867 and them that were with them,

34 Saying,3004 The Lord2962 is risen1453 indeed,3689 and has appeared3700 to Simon.4613

35 And they told1834 what3588 things were done in the way,3598 and how5613 he was known1097 of them in breaking2800 of bread.740

36 And as they thus3778 spoke,2980 Jesus2424 himself846 stood2476 in the middle3319 of them, and said3004 to them, Peace1515 be to you.

37 But they were terrified4422 and affrighted,1719 and supposed1380 that they had seen2334 a spirit.4151

38 And he said2036 to them, Why5101 are you troubled?5015 and why1302 do thoughts1261 arise305 in your5216 hearts?2588

39 Behold1492 my hands5495 and my feet,4228 that it is I myself: handle5584 me, and see;1492 for a spirit4151 has2192 not flesh4561 and bones,3747 as you see2334 me have.2192

40 And when he had thus5124 spoken,2036 he showed1925 them his hands5495 and his feet.4228

41 And while they yet2089 believed569 not for joy,5479 and wondered,2296 he said2036 to them, Have2192 you here1759 any5100 meat?1034

42 And they gave1929 him a piece3313 of a broiled3702 fish,2486 and of an honeycomb.3193 2781

43 And he took2983 it, and did eat5315 before1799 them.

44 And he said2036 to them, These3778 are the words3056 which3739 I spoke2980 to you, while I was yet2089 with you, that all3956 things must1163 be fulfilled,4137 which3588 were written1125 in the law3551 of Moses,3475 and in the prophets,4396 and in the psalms,5568 concerning4012 me.

45 Then5119 opened1272 he their understanding,3563 that they might understand4920 the scriptures,1124

46 And said2036 to them, Thus3779 it is written,1125 and thus3779 it behooved1163 Christ5547 to suffer,3958 and to rise450 from the dead3498 the third5154 day:2250

47 And that repentance3341 and remission859 of sins266 should be preached2784 in his name3686 among1519 all3956 nations,1484 beginning756 at575 Jerusalem.2419

48 And you are witnesses3144 of these5130 things.

49 And, behold,2400 I send649 the promise1860 of my Father3962 on you: but tarry2523 you in the city4172 of Jerusalem,2419 until2193 you be endued1746 with power1411 from on high.5311

50 And he led1806 them out as far2193 as to Bethany,963 and he lifted1869 up his hands,5495 and blessed2127 them.

51 And it came1096 to pass, while1722 3588 he blessed2127 them, he was parted1339 from them, and carried399 up into1519 heaven.3772

52 And they worshipped4352 him, and returned5290 to Jerusalem2419 with great3173 joy:5479

53 And were continually1725 in the temple,2411 praising134 and blessing2127 God.2316 Amen.281
