THE book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son
of Abraham.
		 -- Matthew 1:1
%
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and
his brethren;
		 -- Matthew 1:2
%
And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom;
and Esrom begat Aram;
		 -- Matthew 1:3
%
And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat
Salmon;
		 -- Matthew 1:4
%
And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed
begat Jesse;
		 -- Matthew 1:5
%
And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her
that had been the wife of Urias;
		 -- Matthew 1:6
%
And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
		 -- Matthew 1:7
%
And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
		 -- Matthew 1:8
%
And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
		 -- Matthew 1:9
%
And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat
Josias;
		 -- Matthew 1:10
%
And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were
carried away to Babylon:
		 -- Matthew 1:11
%
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel;
and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
		 -- Matthew 1:12
%
And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat
Azor;
		 -- Matthew 1:13
%
And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
		 -- Matthew 1:14
%
And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat
Jacob;
		 -- Matthew 1:15
%
And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus,
who is called Christ.
		 -- Matthew 1:16
%
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations;
and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen
generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are
fourteen generations.
		 -- Matthew 1:17
%
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary
was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with
child of the Holy Ghost.
		 -- Matthew 1:18
%
Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her
a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
		 -- Matthew 1:19
%
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord
appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear
not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her
is of the Holy Ghost.
		 -- Matthew 1:20
%
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:
for he shall save his people from their sins.
		 -- Matthew 1:21
%
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of
the Lord by the prophet, saying,
		 -- Matthew 1:22
%
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son,
and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is,
God with us.
		 -- Matthew 1:23
%
Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had
bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
		 -- Matthew 1:24
%
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he
called his name JESUS.
		 -- Matthew 1:25
%
NOW when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the
king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
		 -- Matthew 2:1
%
Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews?  for we have seen
his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
		 -- Matthew 2:2
%
When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all
Jerusalem with him.
		 -- Matthew 2:3
%
And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people
together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
		 -- Matthew 2:4
%
And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written
by the prophet,
		 -- Matthew 2:5
%
And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the
princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule
my people Israel.
		 -- Matthew 2:6
%
Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them
diligently what time the star appeared.
		 -- Matthew 2:7
%
And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for
the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that
I may come and worship him also.
		 -- Matthew 2:8
%
When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which
they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over
where the young child was.
		 -- Matthew 2:9
%
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
		 -- Matthew 2:10
%
And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary
his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened
their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense,
and myrrh.
		 -- Matthew 2:11
%
And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod,
they departed into their own country another way.
		 -- Matthew 2:12
%
And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth
to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his
mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word:
for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
		 -- Matthew 2:13
%
When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and
departed into Egypt:
		 -- Matthew 2:14
%
And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which
was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called
my son.
		 -- Matthew 2:15
%
Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding
wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem,
and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according
to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.
		 -- Matthew 2:16
%
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
		 -- Matthew 2:17
%
In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great
mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted,
because they are not.
		 -- Matthew 2:18
%
But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a
dream to Joseph in Egypt,
		 -- Matthew 2:19
%
Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the
land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.
		 -- Matthew 2:20
%
And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into
the land of Israel.
		 -- Matthew 2:21
%
But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his
father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned
of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:
		 -- Matthew 2:22
%
And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be
fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.
		 -- Matthew 2:23
%
IN those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of
Judaea,
		 -- Matthew 3:1
%
And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
		 -- Matthew 3:2
%
For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The
voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight.
		 -- Matthew 3:3
%
And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle
about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
		 -- Matthew 3:4
%
Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round
about Jordan,
		 -- Matthew 3:5
%
And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
		 -- Matthew 3:6
%
But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism,
he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee
from the wrath to come?
		 -- Matthew 3:7
%
Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:
		 -- Matthew 3:8
%
And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father:
for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children
unto Abraham.
		 -- Matthew 3:9
%
And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every
tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into
the fire.
		 -- Matthew 3:10
%
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh
after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he
shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
		 -- Matthew 3:11
%
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and
gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with
unquenchable fire.
		 -- Matthew 3:12
%
Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.
		 -- Matthew 3:13
%
But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and
comest thou to me?
		 -- Matthew 3:14
%
And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it
becometh us to fulfil all righteousness.  Then he suffered him.
		 -- Matthew 3:15
%
And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water:
and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God
descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
		 -- Matthew 3:16
%
And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I
am well pleased.
		 -- Matthew 3:17
%
THEN was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted
of the devil.
		 -- Matthew 4:1
%
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward
an hungred.
		 -- Matthew 4:2
%
And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God,
command that these stones be made bread.
		 -- Matthew 4:3
%
But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
		 -- Matthew 4:4
%
Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a
pinnacle of the temple,
		 -- Matthew 4:5
%
And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for
it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in
their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot
against a stone.
		 -- Matthew 4:6
%
Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord
thy God.
		 -- Matthew 4:7
%
Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and
sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
		 -- Matthew 4:8
%
And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall
down and worship me.
		 -- Matthew 4:9
%
Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written,
Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
		 -- Matthew 4:10
%
Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered
unto him.
		 -- Matthew 4:11
%
Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed
into Galilee;
		 -- Matthew 4:12
%
And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the
sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:
		 -- Matthew 4:13
%
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
		 -- Matthew 4:14
%
The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea,
beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
		 -- Matthew 4:15
%
The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat
in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
		 -- Matthew 4:16
%
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom
of heaven is at hand.
		 -- Matthew 4:17
%
And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called
Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they
were fishers.
		 -- Matthew 4:18
%
And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
		 -- Matthew 4:19
%
And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.
		 -- Matthew 4:20
%
And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of
Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father,
mending their nets; and he called them.
		 -- Matthew 4:21
%
And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
		 -- Matthew 4:22
%
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and
preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness
and all manner of disease among the people.
		 -- Matthew 4:23
%
And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all
sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and
those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick,
and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
		 -- Matthew 4:24
%
And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from
Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.
		 -- Matthew 4:25
%
AND seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was
set, his disciples came unto him:
		 -- Matthew 5:1
%
And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
		 -- Matthew 5:2
%
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
		 -- Matthew 5:3
%
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
		 -- Matthew 5:4
%
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
		 -- Matthew 5:5
%
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for
they shall be filled.
		 -- Matthew 5:6
%
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
		 -- Matthew 5:7
%
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
		 -- Matthew 5:8
%
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
		 -- Matthew 5:9
%
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs
is the kingdom of heaven.
		 -- Matthew 5:10
%
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall
say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
		 -- Matthew 5:11
%
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven:
for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
		 -- Matthew 5:12
%
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour,
wherewith shall it be salted?  it is thenceforth good for nothing,
but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
		 -- Matthew 5:13
%
Ye are the light of the world.	A city that is set on an hill cannot
be hid.
		 -- Matthew 5:14
%
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a
candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
		 -- Matthew 5:15
%
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
		 -- Matthew 5:16
%
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not
come to destroy, but to fulfil.
		 -- Matthew 5:17
%
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one
tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
		 -- Matthew 5:18
%
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall
teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven:
but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great
in the kingdom of heaven.
		 -- Matthew 5:19
%
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the
righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter
into the kingdom of heaven.
		 -- Matthew 5:20
%
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill;
and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
		 -- Matthew 5:21
%
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a
cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his
brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say,
Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
		 -- Matthew 5:22
%
Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest
that thy brother hath ought against thee;
		 -- Matthew 5:23
%
Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled
to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
		 -- Matthew 5:24
%
Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him;
lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge
deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
		 -- Matthew 5:25
%
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till
thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
		 -- Matthew 5:26
%
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not
commit adultery:
		 -- Matthew 5:27
%
But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her
hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
		 -- Matthew 5:28
%
And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee:
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
		 -- Matthew 5:29
%
And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee:
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
		 -- Matthew 5:30
%
It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her
a writing of divorcement:
		 -- Matthew 5:31
%
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for
the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever
shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
		 -- Matthew 5:32
%
Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou
shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
		 -- Matthew 5:33
%
But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is
God's throne:
		 -- Matthew 5:34
%
Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it
is the city of the great King.
		 -- Matthew 5:35
%
Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one
hair white or black.
		 -- Matthew 5:36
%
But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is
more than these cometh of evil.
		 -- Matthew 5:37
%
Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth
for a tooth:
		 -- Matthew 5:38
%
But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite
thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
		 -- Matthew 5:39
%
And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let
him have thy cloke also.
		 -- Matthew 5:40
%
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
		 -- Matthew 5:41
%
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee
turn not thou away.
		 -- Matthew 5:42
%
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour,
and hate thine enemy.
		 -- Matthew 5:43
%
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do
good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you,
and persecute you;
		 -- Matthew 5:44
%
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he
maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on
the just and on the unjust.
		 -- Matthew 5:45
%
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye?  do not even
the publicans the same?
		 -- Matthew 5:46
%
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others?
do not even the publicans so?
		 -- Matthew 5:47
%
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is
perfect.
		 -- Matthew 5:48
%
TAKE heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
		 -- Matthew 6:1
%
Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee,
as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they
may have glory of men.	Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
		 -- Matthew 6:2
%
But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right
hand doeth:
		 -- Matthew 6:3
%
That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret
himself shall reward thee openly.
		 -- Matthew 6:4
%
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for
they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the
streets, that they may be seen of men.	Verily I say unto you, They have
their reward.
		 -- Matthew 6:5
%
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast
shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father
which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
		 -- Matthew 6:6
%
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they
think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
		 -- Matthew 6:7
%
Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things
ye have need of, before ye ask him.
		 -- Matthew 6:8
%
After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
		 -- Matthew 6:9
%
Thy kingdom come.  Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
		 -- Matthew 6:10
%
Give us this day our daily bread.
		 -- Matthew 6:11
%
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
		 -- Matthew 6:12
%
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is
the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.  Amen.
		 -- Matthew 6:13
%
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also
forgive you:
		 -- Matthew 6:14
%
But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father
forgive your trespasses.
		 -- Matthew 6:15
%
Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance:
for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast.
Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
		 -- Matthew 6:16
%
But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
		 -- Matthew 6:17
%
That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in
secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
		 -- Matthew 6:18
%
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth
corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
		 -- Matthew 6:19
%
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor
rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
		 -- Matthew 6:20
%
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
		 -- Matthew 6:21
%
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light.
		 -- Matthew 6:22
%
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that
darkness!
		 -- Matthew 6:23
%
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and
love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
		 -- Matthew 6:24
%
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall
eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.
Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
		 -- Matthew 6:25
%
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap,
nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them.  Are ye
not much better than they?
		 -- Matthew 6:26
%
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
		 -- Matthew 6:27
%
And why take ye thought for raiment?  Consider the lilies of the field,
how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
		 -- Matthew 6:28
%
And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these.
		 -- Matthew 6:29
%
Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is,
and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you,
O ye of little faith?
		 -- Matthew 6:30
%
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat?  or, What shall
we drink?  or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
		 -- Matthew 6:31
%
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly
Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
		 -- Matthew 6:32
%
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you.
		 -- Matthew 6:33
%
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take
thought for the things of itself.  Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof.
		 -- Matthew 6:34
%
JUDGE not, that ye be not judged.
		 -- Matthew 7:1
%
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what
measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
		 -- Matthew 7:2
%
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but
considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
		 -- Matthew 7:3
%
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of
thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
		 -- Matthew 7:4
%
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then
shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
		 -- Matthew 7:5
%
Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls
before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again
and rend you.
		 -- Matthew 7:6
%
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it
shall be opened unto you:
		 -- Matthew 7:7
%
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and
to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
		 -- Matthew 7:8
%
Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give
him a stone?
		 -- Matthew 7:9
%
Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
		 -- Matthew 7:10

life, and few there be that find it.

Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree

thy name?  and in thy name have cast out devils?  and in thy name done
many wonderful works?

%
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me,

Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them,
I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

%
For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to
this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to

and bury my father.

arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

%
But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even
the winds and the sea obey him!
		 -- Matthew 8:27
%
And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes,
there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs,
exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.
		 -- Matthew 8:28
%
And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus,
thou Son of God?  art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
		 -- Matthew 8:29
%
And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.
		 -- Matthew 8:30
%
So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to
go away into the herd of swine.
		 -- Matthew 8:31
%
And he said unto them, Go.  And when they were come out, they went into
the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently
down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son,
be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man
blasphemeth.
		 -- Matthew 9:3

your hearts?

For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say,
Arise, and walk?

sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed,

your Master with publicans and sinners?

not a physician, but they that are sick.

sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to
repentance.

be whole.

unto you.

son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

%
Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

%
These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into
the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

%
But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
		 -- Matthew 10:6
%
And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils:
freely ye have received, freely give.

%
Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,

%
Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet
staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is
worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be
not worthy, let your peace return to you.

wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

%
But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and
they will scourge you in their synagogues;

%
And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a
testimony against them and the Gentiles.

%
But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak:

in you.

verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel,

%
The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord.
		 -- Matthew 10:24

as his lord.  If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub,
how much more shall they call them of his household?

%
Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not
be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear
in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.

Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also
before my Father which is in heaven.

But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my
Father which is in heaven.

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace,
but a sword.

For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the
daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother
in law.

He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for
my sake shall find it.

He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth
him that sent me.

He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a
prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of
a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

AND it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve
disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.

Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two
of his disciples,

%
And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for
another?

Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things
which ye do hear and see:

%
The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed,
and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel
preached to them.
		 -- Matthew 11:5
%
And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

%
And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning
John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see?  A reed shaken with
the wind?
		 -- Matthew 11:7
%
But what went ye out for to see?  A man clothed in soft raiment?  behold,
they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.

But what went ye out for to see?  A prophet?  yea, I say unto you,
and more than a prophet.

For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

%
Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not
risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least
in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven
suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

%
For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come.

He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

But whereunto shall I liken this generation?  It is like unto children
sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows,
		 -- Matthew 11:16
%
And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have
mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.
		 -- Matthew 11:17
%
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.

The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man
gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners.
But wisdom is justified of her children.

%
Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works
were done, because they repented not:
		 -- Matthew 11:20
%
Woe unto thee, Chorazin!  woe unto thee, Bethsaida!  for if the mighty
works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they
would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
		 -- Matthew 11:21
%
But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at
the day of judgment, than for you.
		 -- Matthew 11:22
%
And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought
down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee,
had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.
		 -- Matthew 11:23
%
But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of
Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of
heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and
prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
		 -- Matthew 11:25
%
Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
		 -- Matthew 11:26
%
All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the
Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son,
and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart:

AT that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his
disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and
to eat.

%
But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples
do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an
hungred, and they that were with him;

%
How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which
was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him,
but only for the priests?
		 -- Matthew 12:4
%
Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests
in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?

%
But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
		 -- Matthew 12:6
%
But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not
sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.

%
For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

%
And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
		 -- Matthew 12:9
%
And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered.  And they asked
him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days?	that they might
accuse him.
		 -- Matthew 12:10
%
And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall
have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he
not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
		 -- Matthew 12:11
%
How much then is a man better than a sheep?  Wherefore it is lawful to
do well on the sabbath days.
		 -- Matthew 12:12
%
Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand.  And he stretched
it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.

%
Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they
might destroy him.

%
But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great
multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

%
And charged them that they should not make him known:

%
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying.

%
Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is
well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment
to the Gentiles.
		 -- Matthew 12:18
%
He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in
the streets.

A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench,
till he send forth judgment unto victory.

And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided
against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided
against itself shall not stand:

then his kingdom stand?
		 -- Matthew 12:26
%
And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast
them out?  therefore they shall be your judges.

is come unto you.

Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying,
Master, we would see a sign from thee.

sign of the prophet Jonas:

For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly;
so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of
the earth.

While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren

%
And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower
went forth to sow;
		 -- Matthew 13:3
%
And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came
and devoured them up:
		 -- Matthew 13:4
%
Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith
they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
		 -- Matthew 13:5
%
And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root,
they withered away.
		 -- Matthew 13:6
%
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
		 -- Matthew 13:7
%
But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an
hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
		 -- Matthew 13:8
%
Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Matthew 13:9
%
And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them
in parables?
		 -- Matthew 13:10
%
He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know
the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
		 -- Matthew 13:11
%
For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more
abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even
that he hath.
		 -- Matthew 13:12
%
Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not;
and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
		 -- Matthew 13:13
%
And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing
ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and
shall not perceive:
		 -- Matthew 13:14
%
For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of
hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should
see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand
with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
		 -- Matthew 13:15
%
But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
		 -- Matthew 13:16
%
For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have
desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and
to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
		 -- Matthew 13:17
%
Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
		 -- Matthew 13:18
%
When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not,
then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in
his heart.  This is he which received seed by the way side.
		 -- Matthew 13:19
%
But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that
heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
		 -- Matthew 13:20
%
Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when
tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he
is offended.
		 -- Matthew 13:21
%
He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word;
and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the
word, and he becometh unfruitful.
		 -- Matthew 13:22
%
But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the
word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth,
some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
		 -- Matthew 13:23
%
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven
is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
		 -- Matthew 13:24
%
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat,
and went his way.
		 -- Matthew 13:25
%
But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared
the tares also.
		 -- Matthew 13:26
%
So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst
not thou sow good seed in thy field?  from whence then hath it tares?
		 -- Matthew 13:27
%
He said unto them, An enemy hath done this.  The servants said unto him,
Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
		 -- Matthew 13:28
%
But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also
the wheat with them.
		 -- Matthew 13:29
%
Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I
will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind
them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
		 -- Matthew 13:30
%
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is
like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
		 -- Matthew 13:31
%
Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the
greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air
come and lodge in the branches thereof.
		 -- Matthew 13:32
%
Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto
leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the
whole was leavened.
		 -- Matthew 13:33
%
All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without
a parable spake he not unto them:
		 -- Matthew 13:34
%
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been
kept secret from the foundation of the world.
		 -- Matthew 13:35
%
Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his
disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the
tares of the field.
		 -- Matthew 13:36
%
He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son
of man;
		 -- Matthew 13:37
%
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom;
but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
		 -- Matthew 13:38
%
The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the
world; and the reapers are the angels.
		 -- Matthew 13:39
%
As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it
be in the end of this world.
		 -- Matthew 13:40
%
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out
of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
		 -- Matthew 13:41
%
And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and
gnashing of teeth.
		 -- Matthew 13:42
%
Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of
their Father.  Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Matthew 13:43
%
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the
which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and
selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
		 -- Matthew 13:44
%
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking
goodly pearls:
		 -- Matthew 13:45
%
Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that
he had, and bought it.
		 -- Matthew 13:46
%
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the
sea, and gathered of every kind:
		 -- Matthew 13:47
%
Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered
the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
		 -- Matthew 13:48
%
So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth,
and sever the wicked from among the just,
		 -- Matthew 13:49
%
And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing
and gnashing of teeth.
		 -- Matthew 13:50
%
Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things?  They say
unto him, Yea, Lord.
		 -- Matthew 13:51
%
Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto
the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which
bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
		 -- Matthew 13:52
%
And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he
departed thence.
		 -- Matthew 13:53
%
And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their
synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath
this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
		 -- Matthew 13:54
%
Is not this the carpenter's son?  is not his mother called Mary?  and his
brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
		 -- Matthew 13:55
%
And his sisters, are they not all with us?  Whence then hath this man
all these things?
		 -- Matthew 13:56
%
And they were offended in him.	But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is
not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
		 -- Matthew 13:57
%
And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
		 -- Matthew 13:58
%
AT that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
		 -- Matthew 14:1
%
And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from
the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
		 -- Matthew 14:2
%
For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison
for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.
		 -- Matthew 14:3
%
For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
		 -- Matthew 14:4
%
And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude,
because they counted him as a prophet.
		 -- Matthew 14:5
%
But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced
before them, and pleased Herod.
		 -- Matthew 14:6
%
Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.
		 -- Matthew 14:7
%
And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John
Baptist's head in a charger.
		 -- Matthew 14:8
%
And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which
sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.
		 -- Matthew 14:9
%
And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
		 -- Matthew 14:10
%
And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she
brought it to her mother.
		 -- Matthew 14:11
%
And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went
and told Jesus.
		 -- Matthew 14:12
%
When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place
apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot
out of the cities.
		 -- Matthew 14:13
%
And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with
compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
		 -- Matthew 14:14
%
And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a
desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that
they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.
		 -- Matthew 14:15
%
But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.
		 -- Matthew 14:16
%
And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
		 -- Matthew 14:17
%
He said, Bring them hither to me.
		 -- Matthew 14:18
%
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the
five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed,
and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to
the multitude.
		 -- Matthew 14:19
%
And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments
that remained twelve baskets full.
		 -- Matthew 14:20
%
And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women
and children.
		 -- Matthew 14:21
%
And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and
to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
		 -- Matthew 14:22
%
And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain
apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.
		 -- Matthew 14:23
%
But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for
the wind was contrary.
		 -- Matthew 14:24
%
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on
the sea.
		 -- Matthew 14:25
%
And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled,
saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
		 -- Matthew 14:26
%
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I;
be not afraid.
		 -- Matthew 14:27
%
And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto
thee on the water.
		 -- Matthew 14:28
%
And he said, Come.  And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he
walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
		 -- Matthew 14:29
%
But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink,
he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
		 -- Matthew 14:30
%
And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said
unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
		 -- Matthew 14:31
%
And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
		 -- Matthew 14:32
%
Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a
truth thou art the Son of God.
		 -- Matthew 14:33
%
And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.
		 -- Matthew 14:34
%
And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into
all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;
		 -- Matthew 14:35
%
And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment:
and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
		 -- Matthew 14:36
%
THEN came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,
		 -- Matthew 15:1
%
Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders?  for they
wash not their hands when they eat bread.
		 -- Matthew 15:2
%
But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the
commandment of God by your tradition?
		 -- Matthew 15:3
%
For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that
curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
		 -- Matthew 15:4
%
But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift,
by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
		 -- Matthew 15:5
%
And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free.  Thus have
ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
		 -- Matthew 15:6
%
Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
		 -- Matthew 15:7
%
This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with
their lips; but their heart is far from me.
		 -- Matthew 15:8
%
But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments
of men.
		 -- Matthew 15:9
%
And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
		 -- Matthew 15:10
%
Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh
out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
		 -- Matthew 15:11
%
Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the
Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?
		 -- Matthew 15:12
%
But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath
not planted, shall be rooted up.
		 -- Matthew 15:13
%
Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind.  And if the blind
lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
		 -- Matthew 15:14
%
Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
		 -- Matthew 15:15
%
And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
		 -- Matthew 15:16
%
Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth
into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
		 -- Matthew 15:17
%
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart;
and they defile the man.
		 -- Matthew 15:18
%
For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries,
fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
		 -- Matthew 15:19
%
These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands
defileth not a man.
		 -- Matthew 15:20
%
Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
		 -- Matthew 15:21
%
And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried
unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter
is grievously vexed with a devil.
		 -- Matthew 15:22
%
But he answered her not a word.  And his disciples came and besought him,
saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
		 -- Matthew 15:23
%
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the
house of Israel.
		 -- Matthew 15:24
%
Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
		 -- Matthew 15:25
%
But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread,
and to cast it to dogs.
		 -- Matthew 15:26
%
And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall
from their masters' table.
		 -- Matthew 15:27
%
Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be
it unto thee even as thou wilt.  And her daughter was made whole from
that very hour.
		 -- Matthew 15:28
%
And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee;
and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
		 -- Matthew 15:29
%
And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame,
blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet;
and he healed them:
		 -- Matthew 15:30
%
Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak,
the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they
glorified the God of Israel.
		 -- Matthew 15:31
%
Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on
the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have
nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint
in the way.
		 -- Matthew 15:32
%
And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in
the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
		 -- Matthew 15:33
%
And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye?  And they said,
Seven, and a few little fishes.
		 -- Matthew 15:34
%
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
		 -- Matthew 15:35
%
And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake
them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
		 -- Matthew 15:36
%
And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken
meat that was left seven baskets full.
		 -- Matthew 15:37
%
And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
		 -- Matthew 15:38
%
And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts
of Magdala.
		 -- Matthew 15:39
%
THE Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him
that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
		 -- Matthew 16:1
%
He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be
fair weather: for the sky is red.
		 -- Matthew 16:2
%
And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red
and lowring, O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but
can ye not discern the signs of the times?
		 -- Matthew 16:3
%
A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there
shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas.
And he left them, and departed.
		 -- Matthew 16:4
%
And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten
to take bread.
		 -- Matthew 16:5
%
Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the
Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
		 -- Matthew 16:6
%
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken
no bread.
		 -- Matthew 16:7
%
Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith,
why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
		 -- Matthew 16:8
%
Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five
thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
		 -- Matthew 16:9
%
Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye
took up?
		 -- Matthew 16:10
%
How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning
bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of
the Sadducees?
		 -- Matthew 16:11
%
Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of
bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
		 -- Matthew 16:12
%
When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his
disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
		 -- Matthew 16:13
%
And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias;
and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
		 -- Matthew 16:14
%
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
		 -- Matthew 16:15
%
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the
living God.
		 -- Matthew 16:16
%
And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona:
for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which
is in heaven.
		 -- Matthew 16:17
%
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will
build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
		 -- Matthew 16:18
%
And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Jesus the Christ.

priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee,
Lord: this shall not be unto thee.

But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art
an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God,
but those that be of men.
		 -- Matthew 16:23
%
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
		 -- Matthew 16:24
%
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose
his life for my sake shall find it.

%
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose
his own soul?  or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels;
and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee,
and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold
a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom
I am well pleased; hear ye him.

sore afraid.

%
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell
the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

%
And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias
must first come?
		 -- Matthew 17:10
%
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come,
and restore all things.

%
But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not,
but have done unto him whatsoever they listed.	Likewise shall also the
Son of man suffer of them.

Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for
ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

%
And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
		 -- Matthew 17:16
%
Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation,
how long shall I be with you?  how long shall I suffer you?  bring him
hither to me.
		 -- Matthew 17:17
%
And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child
was cured from that very hour.
		 -- Matthew 17:18
%
Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast
him out?
		 -- Matthew 17:19
%
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say
unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say
unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove;
and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

%
Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money
came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

He saith, Yes.	And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him,
saying, What thinkest thou, Simon?  of whom do the kings of the earth
take custom or tribute?  of their own children, or of strangers?

%
Peter saith unto him, Of strangers.  Jesus saith unto him, Then are the
children free.

Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and
cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou
hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take,

%
AT the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the
greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

%
And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst
of them,
		 -- Matthew 18:2
%
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as
little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

%
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same
is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

%
And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me,
it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck,

Woe unto the world because of offences!  for it must needs be that
offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast
them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed,
rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

%
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it
is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having
two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

%
Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto
you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father
which is in heaven.

For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

How think ye?  if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be
gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the
mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

%
And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more
of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

%
Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one
of these little ones should perish.

Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him
his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast
gained thy brother.

But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more,
that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which
would take account of his servants.

%
And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed
him ten thousand talents.
		 -- Matthew 18:24
%
But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold,
and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
		 -- Matthew 18:25
%
The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord,
have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

%
Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him,
and forgave him the debt.
		 -- Matthew 18:27
%
But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants,
which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him
by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

%
And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying,
Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

%
And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay
the debt.
		 -- Matthew 18:30
%
So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry,
and came and told unto their lord all that was done.
		 -- Matthew 18:31
%
Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked
servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
		 -- Matthew 18:32
%
Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even
as I had pity on thee?
		 -- Matthew 18:33
%
And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he
should pay all that was due unto him.

%
So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your
hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

%
And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made
them at the beginning made them male and female,

%
And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall
cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh.  What therefore God
hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

%
They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of
divorcement, and to put her away?

%
He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered
you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
		 -- Matthew 19:8
%
And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for
fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso
marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

%
His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife,
it is not good to marry.
		 -- Matthew 19:10
%
But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to
whom it is given.

%
For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's
womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and
there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of
heaven's sake.	He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put
his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing
shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

%
And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good?  there is none good
but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the
commandments.
		 -- Matthew 19:17
%
He saith unto him, Which?  Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou
shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear
false witness,

%
Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself.

The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth
up: what lack I yet?

%
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast,
and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come
and follow me.

%
But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for
he had great possessions.
		 -- Matthew 19:22
%
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich
man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
		 -- Matthew 19:23
%
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the
eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

%
When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying,
Who then can be saved?

%
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible;
but with God all things are possible.

%
Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all,
and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?
		 -- Matthew 19:27
%
And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have
followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the
throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the
twelve tribes of Israel.
		 -- Matthew 19:28
%
And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or
father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake,
shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

%
But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

FOR the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder,
which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
		 -- Matthew 20:1
%
And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent
them into his vineyard.
		 -- Matthew 20:2
%
And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in
the marketplace,
		 -- Matthew 20:3
%
And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is
right I will give you.	And they went their way.
		 -- Matthew 20:4
%
Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.
		 -- Matthew 20:5
%
And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle,
and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
		 -- Matthew 20:6
%
They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us.  He saith unto them, Go
ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.
		 -- Matthew 20:7
%
So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward,
Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last
unto the first.
		 -- Matthew 20:8
%
And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received
every man a penny.
		 -- Matthew 20:9
%
But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received
more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
		 -- Matthew 20:10
%
And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of
the house,
		 -- Matthew 20:11
%
Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them
equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
		 -- Matthew 20:12
%
But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong:
didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
		 -- Matthew 20:13
%
Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as
unto thee.
		 -- Matthew 20:14
%
Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own?  Is thine eye
evil, because I am good?
		 -- Matthew 20:15
%
So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called,
but few chosen.

%
And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the
way, and said unto them,

Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed
unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him
to death,

And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to
crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.

Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons,
worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.

And he said unto her, What wilt thou?  She saith unto him, Grant that
these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on
the left, in thy kingdom.
		 -- Matthew 20:21
%
But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask.  Are ye able to
drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the
baptism that I am baptized with?  They say unto him, We are able.
		 -- Matthew 20:22
%
And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized
with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand,
and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for
whom it is prepared of my Father.
		 -- Matthew 20:23
%
And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the
two brethren.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the
Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise
authority upon them.

%
But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you,
let him be your minister;
		 -- Matthew 20:26
%
And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

%
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister,
and to give his life a ransom for many.

And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

shall do unto you?

So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately
their eyes received sight, and they followed him.

AND when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage,
unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

them unto me.

All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the
prophet, saying,

there.

thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee
henceforward for ever.	And presently the fig tree withered away.

%
And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the
fig tree withered away!

Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have
faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the
fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed,

Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This
is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
		 -- Matthew 21:38
%
And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
		 -- Matthew 21:39
%
When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto
those husbandmen?
		 -- Matthew 21:40
%
They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will
let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the
fruits in their seasons.
		 -- Matthew 21:41
%
Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone
which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner:
this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
		 -- Matthew 21:42
%
Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you,
and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
		 -- Matthew 21:43
%
And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever
it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
		 -- Matthew 21:44
%
And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they
perceived that he spake of them.
		 -- Matthew 21:45
%
But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude,
because they took him for a prophet.
		 -- Matthew 21:46
%
AND Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
		 -- Matthew 22:1
%
The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage
for his son,
		 -- Matthew 22:2
%
And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding:
and they would not come.
		 -- Matthew 22:3
%
Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden,
Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed,
and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
		 -- Matthew 22:4
%
But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another
to his merchandise:
		 -- Matthew 22:5
%
And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and
slew them.
		 -- Matthew 22:6
%
But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his
armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
		 -- Matthew 22:7
%
Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were
bidden were not worthy.
		 -- Matthew 22:8
%
Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to
the marriage.
		 -- Matthew 22:9
%
So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all
as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished
with guests.
		 -- Matthew 22:10
%
And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which
had not on a wedding garment:
		 -- Matthew 22:11
%
And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a
wedding garment?  And he was speechless.
		 -- Matthew 22:12
%
Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take
him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.
		 -- Matthew 22:13
%
For many are called, but few are chosen.
		 -- Matthew 22:14
%
Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him
in his talk.
		 -- Matthew 22:15
%
And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying,
Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth,
neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
		 -- Matthew 22:16
%
Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou?	Is it lawful to give tribute
unto Caesar, or not?
		 -- Matthew 22:17
%
But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me,
ye hypocrites?
		 -- Matthew 22:18
%
Shew me the tribute money.  And they brought unto him a penny.
		 -- Matthew 22:19
%
And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
		 -- Matthew 22:20
%
They say unto him, Caesar's.  Then saith he unto them, Render therefore
unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that
are God's.
		 -- Matthew 22:21
%
When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went
their way.
		 -- Matthew 22:22
%
The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no
resurrection, and asked him,
		 -- Matthew 22:23
%
Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother
shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
		 -- Matthew 22:24
%
Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married
a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
		 -- Matthew 22:25
%
Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
		 -- Matthew 22:26
%
And last of all the woman died also.
		 -- Matthew 22:27
%
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven?
for they all had her.
		 -- Matthew 22:28
%
Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures,
nor the power of God.
		 -- Matthew 22:29
%
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage,
but are as the angels of God in heaven.
		 -- Matthew 22:30
%
But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that
which was spoken unto you by God, saying,
		 -- Matthew 22:31
%
I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
		 -- Matthew 22:32
%
And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.
		 -- Matthew 22:33
%
But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence,
they were gathered together.
		 -- Matthew 22:34
%
Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him,
and saying,
		 -- Matthew 22:35
%
Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
		 -- Matthew 22:36
%
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
		 -- Matthew 22:37
%
This is the first and great commandment.
		 -- Matthew 22:38
%
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
		 -- Matthew 22:39
%
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
		 -- Matthew 22:40
%
While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
		 -- Matthew 22:41
%
Saying, What think ye of Christ?  whose son is he?  They say unto him,
The Son of David.
		 -- Matthew 22:42
%
He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
		 -- Matthew 22:43
%
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine
enemies thy footstool?
		 -- Matthew 22:44
%
If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
		 -- Matthew 22:45
%
And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from
that day forth ask him any more questions.
		 -- Matthew 22:46
%
THEN spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
		 -- Matthew 23:1
%
Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:
		 -- Matthew 23:2
%
All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do;
but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
		 -- Matthew 23:3
%
For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on
men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of
their fingers.
		 -- Matthew 23:4
%
But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their
phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
		 -- Matthew 23:5
%
And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the
synagogues,
		 -- Matthew 23:6
%
And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
		 -- Matthew 23:7
%
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and
all ye are brethren.
		 -- Matthew 23:8
%
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father,
which is in heaven.
		 -- Matthew 23:9
%
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
		 -- Matthew 23:10
%
But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
		 -- Matthew 23:11
%
And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall
humble himself shall be exalted.
		 -- Matthew 23:12
%
But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye shut up
the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves,
neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
		 -- Matthew 23:13
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye devour widows'
houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive
the greater damnation.
		 -- Matthew 23:14
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye compass sea
and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold
more the child of hell than yourselves.
		 -- Matthew 23:15
%
Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the
temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the
temple, he is a debtor!
		 -- Matthew 23:16
%
Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that
sanctifieth the gold?
		 -- Matthew 23:17
%
And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever
sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
		 -- Matthew 23:18
%
Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that
sanctifieth the gift?
		 -- Matthew 23:19
%
Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all
things thereon.
		 -- Matthew 23:20
%
And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that
dwelleth therein.
		 -- Matthew 23:21
%
And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and
by him that sitteth thereon.
		 -- Matthew 23:22
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye pay tithe of
mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of
the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and
not to leave the other undone.
		 -- Matthew 23:23
%
Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
		 -- Matthew 23:24
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye make clean
the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of
extortion and excess.
		 -- Matthew 23:25
%
Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and
platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
		 -- Matthew 23:26
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye are like unto
whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within
full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
		 -- Matthew 23:27
%
Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are
full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
		 -- Matthew 23:28
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  because ye build the
tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
		 -- Matthew 23:29
%
And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have
been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
		 -- Matthew 23:30
%
Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of
them which killed the prophets.
		 -- Matthew 23:31
%
Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
		 -- Matthew 23:32
%
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation
of hell?
		 -- Matthew 23:33
%
Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes:
and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye
scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
		 -- Matthew 23:34
%
That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from
the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias,
whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
		 -- Matthew 23:35
%
Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
		 -- Matthew 23:36
%
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them
which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children
together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye
would not!
		 -- Matthew 23:37
%
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
		 -- Matthew 23:38
%
For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say,
Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
		 -- Matthew 23:39
%
AND Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came
to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
		 -- Matthew 24:1
%
And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things?	verily I say
unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that
shall not be thrown down.
		 -- Matthew 24:2
%
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him
privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?  and what shall
be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
		 -- Matthew 24:3
%
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
		 -- Matthew 24:4
%
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive
many.
		 -- Matthew 24:5
%
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not
troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
		 -- Matthew 24:6
%
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers
places.
		 -- Matthew 24:7
%
All these are the beginning of sorrows.
		 -- Matthew 24:8
%
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you:
and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
		 -- Matthew 24:9
%
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall
hate one another.
		 -- Matthew 24:10
%
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
		 -- Matthew 24:11
%
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
		 -- Matthew 24:12
%
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
		 -- Matthew 24:13
%
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for
a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
		 -- Matthew 24:14
%
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of
by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let
him understand:)
		 -- Matthew 24:15
%
Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
		 -- Matthew 24:16
%
Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of
his house:
		 -- Matthew 24:17
%
Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
		 -- Matthew 24:18
%
And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in
those days!
		 -- Matthew 24:19
%
But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the
sabbath day:
		 -- Matthew 24:20
%
For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning
of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
		 -- Matthew 24:21
%
And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved:
but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
		 -- Matthew 24:22
%
Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there;
believe it not.
		 -- Matthew 24:23
%
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew
great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
deceive the very elect.
		 -- Matthew 24:24
%
Behold, I have told you before.
		 -- Matthew 24:25
%
Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert;
go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
		 -- Matthew 24:26
%
For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the
west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
		 -- Matthew 24:27
%
For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered
together.
		 -- Matthew 24:28
%
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened,
and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from
heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
		 -- Matthew 24:29
%
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then
shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of
man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
		 -- Matthew 24:30
%
And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they
shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of
heaven to the other.
		 -- Matthew 24:31
%
Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender,
and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
		 -- Matthew 24:32
%
So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near,
even at the doors.
		 -- Matthew 24:33
%
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these
things be fulfilled.
		 -- Matthew 24:34
%
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
		 -- Matthew 24:35
%
But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven,
but my Father only.
		 -- Matthew 24:36
%
But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of
man be.
		 -- Matthew 24:37
%
For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and
drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered
into the ark,
		 -- Matthew 24:38
%
And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also
the coming of the Son of man be.
		 -- Matthew 24:39
%
Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other
left.
		 -- Matthew 24:40
%
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and
the other left.
		 -- Matthew 24:41
%
Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
		 -- Matthew 24:42
%
But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch
the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered
his house to be broken up.
		 -- Matthew 24:43
%
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son
of man cometh.
		 -- Matthew 24:44
%
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler
over his household, to give them meat in due season?
		 -- Matthew 24:45
%
Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
		 -- Matthew 24:46
%
Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
		 -- Matthew 24:47
%
But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth
his coming;
		 -- Matthew 24:48
%
And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with
the drunken;
		 -- Matthew 24:49
%
The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him,
and in an hour that he is not aware of,
		 -- Matthew 24:50
%
And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the
hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
		 -- Matthew 24:51
%
THEN shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took
their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
		 -- Matthew 25:1
%
And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
		 -- Matthew 25:2
%
They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
		 -- Matthew 25:3
%
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
		 -- Matthew 25:4
%
While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
		 -- Matthew 25:5
%
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh;
go ye out to meet him.
		 -- Matthew 25:6
%
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
		 -- Matthew 25:7
%
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps
are gone out.
		 -- Matthew 25:8
%
But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us
and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
		 -- Matthew 25:9
%
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were
ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
		 -- Matthew 25:10
%
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
		 -- Matthew 25:11
%
But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
		 -- Matthew 25:12
%
Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the
Son of man cometh.
		 -- Matthew 25:13
%
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country,
who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
		 -- Matthew 25:14
%
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one;
to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took
his journey.
		 -- Matthew 25:15
%
Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same,
and made them other five talents.
		 -- Matthew 25:16
%
And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
		 -- Matthew 25:17
%
But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his
lord's money.
		 -- Matthew 25:18
%
After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth
with them.
		 -- Matthew 25:19
%
And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five
talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold,
I have gained beside them five talents more.
		 -- Matthew 25:20
%
His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou
hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many
things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
		 -- Matthew 25:21
%
He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou
deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents
beside them.
		 -- Matthew 25:22
%
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast
been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
		 -- Matthew 25:23
%
Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew
thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and
gathering where thou hast not strawed:
		 -- Matthew 25:24
%
And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there
thou hast that is thine.
		 -- Matthew 25:25
%
His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant,
thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have
not strawed:
		 -- Matthew 25:26
%
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then
at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
		 -- Matthew 25:27
%
Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath
ten talents.
		 -- Matthew 25:28
%
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance:
but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
		 -- Matthew 25:29
%
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall
be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
		 -- Matthew 25:30
%
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels
with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
		 -- Matthew 25:31
%
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them
one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
		 -- Matthew 25:32
%
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
		 -- Matthew 25:33
%
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed
of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation
of the world:
		 -- Matthew 25:34
%
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave
me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
		 -- Matthew 25:35
%
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison,
and ye came unto me.
		 -- Matthew 25:36
%
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
hungred, and fed thee?	or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
		 -- Matthew 25:37
%
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in?	or naked, and clothed
thee?
		 -- Matthew 25:38
%
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
		 -- Matthew 25:39
%
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me.
		 -- Matthew 25:40
%
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me,
ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
		 -- Matthew 25:41
%
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave
me no drink:
		 -- Matthew 25:42
%
I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not:
sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
		 -- Matthew 25:43
%
Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison,
and did not minister unto thee?
		 -- Matthew 25:44
%
Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as
ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
		 -- Matthew 25:45
%
And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous
into life eternal.
		 -- Matthew 25:46
%
AND it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said
unto his disciples,
		 -- Matthew 26:1
%
Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son
of man is betrayed to be crucified.
		 -- Matthew 26:2
%
Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the
elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called
Caiaphas,
		 -- Matthew 26:3
%
And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
		 -- Matthew 26:4
%
But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among
the people.
		 -- Matthew 26:5
%
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
		 -- Matthew 26:6
%
There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious
ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.
		 -- Matthew 26:7
%
But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what
purpose is this waste?
		 -- Matthew 26:8
%
For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
		 -- Matthew 26:9
%
When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman?
for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
		 -- Matthew 26:10
%
For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
		 -- Matthew 26:11
%
For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for
my burial.
		 -- Matthew 26:12
%
Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the
whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told
for a memorial of her.
		 -- Matthew 26:13
%
Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief
priests,
		 -- Matthew 26:14
%
And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you?
And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.
		 -- Matthew 26:15
%
And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
		 -- Matthew 26:16
%
Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came
to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to
eat the passover?
		 -- Matthew 26:17
%
And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master
saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with
my disciples.
		 -- Matthew 26:18
%
And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready
the passover.
		 -- Matthew 26:19
%
Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.
		 -- Matthew 26:20
%
And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you
shall betray me.
		 -- Matthew 26:21
%
And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say
unto him, Lord, is it I?
		 -- Matthew 26:22
%
And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish,
the same shall betray me.
		 -- Matthew 26:23
%
The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by
whom the Son of man is betrayed!  it had been good for that man if he
had not been born.
		 -- Matthew 26:24
%
Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I?
He said unto him, Thou hast said.
		 -- Matthew 26:25
%
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it,
and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
		 -- Matthew 26:26
%
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying,
Drink ye all of it;
		 -- Matthew 26:27
%
For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for
the remission of sins.
		 -- Matthew 26:28
%
But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine,
until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
		 -- Matthew 26:29
%
And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
		 -- Matthew 26:30
%
Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this
night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of
the flock shall be scattered abroad.
		 -- Matthew 26:31
%
But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
		 -- Matthew 26:32
%
Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended
because of thee, yet will I never be offended.
		 -- Matthew 26:33
%
Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before
the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
		 -- Matthew 26:34
%
Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not
deny thee.  Likewise also said all the disciples.
		 -- Matthew 26:35
%
Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith
unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
		 -- Matthew 26:36
%
And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be
sorrowful and very heavy.
		 -- Matthew 26:37
%
Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death:
tarry ye here, and watch with me.
		 -- Matthew 26:38
%
And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying,
O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless
not as I will, but as thou wilt.
		 -- Matthew 26:39
%
And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith
unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
		 -- Matthew 26:40
%
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is
willing, but the flesh is weak.
		 -- Matthew 26:41
%
He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if
this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
		 -- Matthew 26:42
%
And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
		 -- Matthew 26:43
%
And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying
the same words.
		 -- Matthew 26:44
%
Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now,
and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is
betrayed into the hands of sinners.
		 -- Matthew 26:45
%
Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.
		 -- Matthew 26:46
%
And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with
him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests
and elders of the people.
		 -- Matthew 26:47
%
Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall
kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.
		 -- Matthew 26:48
%
And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.
		 -- Matthew 26:49
%
And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come?  Then came they,
and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
		 -- Matthew 26:50
%
And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand,
and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote
off his ear.
		 -- Matthew 26:51
%
Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for
all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
		 -- Matthew 26:52
%
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently
give me more than twelve legions of angels?
		 -- Matthew 26:53
%
But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
		 -- Matthew 26:54
%
In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as
against a thief with swords and staves for to take me?	I sat daily with
you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.
		 -- Matthew 26:55
%
But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be
fulfilled.  Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
		 -- Matthew 26:56
%
And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high
priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
		 -- Matthew 26:57
%
But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went
in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.
		 -- Matthew 26:58
%
Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false
witness against Jesus, to put him to death;
		 -- Matthew 26:59
%
But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they
none.  At the last came two false witnesses,
		 -- Matthew 26:60
%
And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God,
and to build it in three days.
		 -- Matthew 26:61
%
And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing?
what is it which these witness against thee?
		 -- Matthew 26:62
%
But Jesus held his peace.  And the high priest answered and said unto
him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be
the Christ, the Son of God.
		 -- Matthew 26:63
%
Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you,
Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power,
and coming in the clouds of heaven.
		 -- Matthew 26:64
%
Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy;
what further need have we of witnesses?  behold, now ye have heard
his blasphemy.
		 -- Matthew 26:65
%
What think ye?	They answered and said, He is guilty of death.
		 -- Matthew 26:66
%
Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him
with the palms of their hands,
		 -- Matthew 26:67
%
Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?
		 -- Matthew 26:68
%
Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying,
Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
		 -- Matthew 26:69
%
But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
		 -- Matthew 26:70
%
And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said
unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.
		 -- Matthew 26:71
%
And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
		 -- Matthew 26:72
%
And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter,
Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
		 -- Matthew 26:73
%
Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man.
And immediately the cock crew.
		 -- Matthew 26:74
%
And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the
cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.  And he went out, and wept bitterly.
		 -- Matthew 26:75
%
WHEN the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people
took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
		 -- Matthew 27:1
%
And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to
Pontius Pilate the governor.
		 -- Matthew 27:2
%
Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned,
repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the
chief priests and elders,
		 -- Matthew 27:3
%
Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood.
And they said, What is that to us?  see thou to that.
		 -- Matthew 27:4
%
And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed,
and went and hanged himself.
		 -- Matthew 27:5
%
And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful
for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
		 -- Matthew 27:6
%
And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury
strangers in.
		 -- Matthew 27:7
%
Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.
		 -- Matthew 27:8
%
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was
valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
		 -- Matthew 27:9
%
And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
		 -- Matthew 27:10
%
And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying,
Art thou the King of the Jews?	And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.
		 -- Matthew 27:11
%
And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered
nothing.
		 -- Matthew 27:12
%
Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness
against thee?
		 -- Matthew 27:13
%
And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled
greatly.
		 -- Matthew 27:14
%
Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a
prisoner, whom they would.
		 -- Matthew 27:15
%
And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
		 -- Matthew 27:16
%
Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them,
Whom will ye that I release unto you?  Barabbas, or Jesus which is
called Christ?
		 -- Matthew 27:17
%
For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
		 -- Matthew 27:18
%
When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him,
saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered
many things this day in a dream because of him.
		 -- Matthew 27:19
%
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should
ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
		 -- Matthew 27:20
%
The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye
that I release unto you?  They said, Barabbas.
		 -- Matthew 27:21
%
Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called
Christ?  They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
		 -- Matthew 27:22
%
And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done?  But they cried out
the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
		 -- Matthew 27:23
%
When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult
was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude,
saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
		 -- Matthew 27:24
%
Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on
our children.
		 -- Matthew 27:25
%
Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus,
he delivered him to be crucified.
		 -- Matthew 27:26
%
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall,
and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
		 -- Matthew 27:27
%
And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
		 -- Matthew 27:28
%
And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head,
and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and
mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
		 -- Matthew 27:29
%
And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
		 -- Matthew 27:30
%
And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him,
and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
		 -- Matthew 27:31
%
And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him
they compelled to bear his cross.
		 -- Matthew 27:32
%
And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say,
a place of a skull,
		 -- Matthew 27:33
%
They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted
thereof, he would not drink.
		 -- Matthew 27:34
%
And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that
it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my
garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
		 -- Matthew 27:35
%
And sitting down they watched him there;
		 -- Matthew 27:36
%
And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING
OF THE JEWS.
		 -- Matthew 27:37
%
Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand,
and another on the left.
		 -- Matthew 27:38
%
And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
		 -- Matthew 27:39
%
And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three
days, save thyself.  If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
		 -- Matthew 27:40
%
Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and
elders, said,
		 -- Matthew 27:41
%
He saved others; himself he cannot save.  If he be the King of Israel,
let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
		 -- Matthew 27:42
%
He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he
said, I am the Son of God.
		 -- Matthew 27:43
%
The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in
his teeth.
		 -- Matthew 27:44
%
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the
ninth hour.
		 -- Matthew 27:45
%
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli,
Eli, lama sabachthani?	that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou
forsaken me?
		 -- Matthew 27:46
%
Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man
calleth for Elias.
		 -- Matthew 27:47
%
And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with
vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
		 -- Matthew 27:48
%
The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
		 -- Matthew 27:49
%
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
		 -- Matthew 27:50
%
And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to
the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
		 -- Matthew 27:51
%
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept
arose,
		 -- Matthew 27:52
%
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the
holy city, and appeared unto many.
		 -- Matthew 27:53
%
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus,
saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly,
saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
		 -- Matthew 27:54
%
And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from
Galilee, ministering unto him:
		 -- Matthew 27:55
%
Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses,
and the mother of Zebedee's children.
		 -- Matthew 27:56
%
When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph,
who also himself was Jesus' disciple:
		 -- Matthew 27:57
%
He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.  Then Pilate commanded
the body to be delivered.
		 -- Matthew 27:58
%
And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
		 -- Matthew 27:59
%
And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock:
and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
		 -- Matthew 27:60
%
And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against
the sepulchre.
		 -- Matthew 27:61
%
Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief
priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
		 -- Matthew 27:62
%
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive,
After three days I will rise again.
		 -- Matthew 27:63
%
Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day,
lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the
people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than
the first.
		 -- Matthew 27:64
%
Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as
ye can.
		 -- Matthew 27:65
%
So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting
a watch.
		 -- Matthew 27:66
%
IN the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of
the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
		 -- Matthew 28:1
%
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord
descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door,
and sat upon it.
		 -- Matthew 28:2
%
His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
		 -- Matthew 28:3
%
And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
		 -- Matthew 28:4
%
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know
that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
		 -- Matthew 28:5
%
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.  Come, see the place where
the Lord lay.
		 -- Matthew 28:6
%
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead;
and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him:
lo, I have told you.
		 -- Matthew 28:7
%
And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy;
and did run to bring his disciples word.
		 -- Matthew 28:8
%
And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying,
All hail.  And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
		 -- Matthew 28:9
%
Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they
go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
		 -- Matthew 28:10
%
Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city,
and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
		 -- Matthew 28:11
%
And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel,
they gave large money unto the soldiers,
		 -- Matthew 28:12
%
Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while
we slept.
		 -- Matthew 28:13
%
And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and
secure you.
		 -- Matthew 28:14
%
So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is
commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
		 -- Matthew 28:15
%
Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where
Jesus had appointed them.
		 -- Matthew 28:16
%
And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
		 -- Matthew 28:17
%
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me
in heaven and in earth.
		 -- Matthew 28:18
%
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
		 -- Matthew 28:19
%
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.  Amen.
		 -- Matthew 28:20
%
THE beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
		 -- Mark 1:1
%
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
		 -- Mark 1:2
%
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight.
		 -- Mark 1:3
%
John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance
for the remission of sins.
		 -- Mark 1:4
%
And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem,
and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their
sins.
		 -- Mark 1:5
%
And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin
about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
		 -- Mark 1:6
%
And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the
latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
		 -- Mark 1:7
%
I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with
the Holy Ghost.
		 -- Mark 1:8
%
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of
Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
		 -- Mark 1:9
%
And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened,
and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
		 -- Mark 1:10
%
And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased.
		 -- Mark 1:11
%
And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
		 -- Mark 1:12
%
And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and
was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
		 -- Mark 1:13
%
Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching
the gospel of the kingdom of God,
		 -- Mark 1:14
%
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand:
repent ye, and believe the gospel.
		 -- Mark 1:15
%
Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his
brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
		 -- Mark 1:16
%
And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become
fishers of men.
		 -- Mark 1:17
%
And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.
		 -- Mark 1:18
%
And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son
of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending
their nets.
		 -- Mark 1:19
%
And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in
the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
		 -- Mark 1:20
%
And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he
entered into the synagogue, and taught.
		 -- Mark 1:21
%
And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that
had authority, and not as the scribes.
		 -- Mark 1:22
%
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he
cried out,
		 -- Mark 1:23
%
Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of
Nazareth?  art thou come to destroy us?  I know thee who thou art,
the Holy One of God.
		 -- Mark 1:24
%
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
		 -- Mark 1:25
%
And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice,
he came out of him.
		 -- Mark 1:26
%
And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves,
saying, What thing is this?  what new doctrine is this?  for with
authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
		 -- Mark 1:27
%
And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round
about Galilee.
		 -- Mark 1:28
%
And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered
into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
		 -- Mark 1:29
%
But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him
of her.
		 -- Mark 1:30
%
And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately
the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
		 -- Mark 1:31
%
And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were
diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
		 -- Mark 1:32
%
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
		 -- Mark 1:33
%
And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many
devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
		 -- Mark 1:34
%
And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out,
and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
		 -- Mark 1:35
%
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
		 -- Mark 1:36
%
And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.
		 -- Mark 1:37
%
And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach
there also: for therefore came I forth.
		 -- Mark 1:38
%
And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast
out devils.
		 -- Mark 1:39
%
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him,
and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
		 -- Mark 1:40
%
And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him,
and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.
		 -- Mark 1:41
%
And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him,
and he was cleansed.
		 -- Mark 1:42
%
And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
		 -- Mark 1:43
%
And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way,
shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things
which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
		 -- Mark 1:44
%
But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the
matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city,
but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
		 -- Mark 1:45
%
AND again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised
that he was in the house.
		 -- Mark 2:1
%
And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no
room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached
the word unto them.
		 -- Mark 2:2
%
And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne
of four.
		 -- Mark 2:3
%
And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered
the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down
the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
		 -- Mark 2:4
%
When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son,
thy sins be forgiven thee.
		 -- Mark 2:5
%
But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in
their hearts,
		 -- Mark 2:6
%
Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies?  who can forgive sins but
God only?
		 -- Mark 2:7
%
And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned
within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in
your hearts?
		 -- Mark 2:8
%
Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven
thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?
		 -- Mark 2:9
%
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive
sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)
		 -- Mark 2:10
%
I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine
house.
		 -- Mark 2:11
%
And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them
all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying,
We never saw it on this fashion.
		 -- Mark 2:12
%
And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted
unto him, and he taught them.
		 -- Mark 2:13
%
And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the
receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me.  And he arose and
followed him.
		 -- Mark 2:14
%
And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many
publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples:
for there were many, and they followed him.
		 -- Mark 2:15
%
And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners,
they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with
publicans and sinners?
		 -- Mark 2:16
%
When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no
need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the
righteous, but sinners to repentance.
		 -- Mark 2:17
%
And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they
come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees
fast, but thy disciples fast not?
		 -- Mark 2:18
%
And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast,
while the bridegroom is with them?  as long as they have the bridegroom
with them, they cannot fast.
		 -- Mark 2:19
%
But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them,
and then shall they fast in those days.
		 -- Mark 2:20
%
No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the
new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is
made worse.
		 -- Mark 2:21
%
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth
burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be
marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.
		 -- Mark 2:22
%
And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath
day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.
		 -- Mark 2:23
%
And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day
that which is not lawful?
		 -- Mark 2:24
%
And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had
need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?
		 -- Mark 2:25
%
How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest,
and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests,
and gave also to them which were with him?
		 -- Mark 2:26
%
And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for
the sabbath:
		 -- Mark 2:27
%
Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
		 -- Mark 2:28
%
AND he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which
had a withered hand.
		 -- Mark 3:1
%
And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day;
that they might accuse him.
		 -- Mark 3:2
%
And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.
		 -- Mark 3:3
%
And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days,
or to do evil?	to save life, or to kill?  But they held their peace.
		 -- Mark 3:4
%
And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved
for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth
thine hand.  And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole
as the other.
		 -- Mark 3:5
%
And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the
Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
		 -- Mark 3:6
%
But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great
multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,
		 -- Mark 3:7
%
And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they
about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great
things he did, came unto him.
		 -- Mark 3:8
%
And he spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him
because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.
		 -- Mark 3:9
%
For he had healed many; insomuch that they pressed upon him for to touch
him, as many as had plagues.
		 -- Mark 3:10
%
And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried,
saying, Thou art the Son of God.
		 -- Mark 3:11
%
And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.
		 -- Mark 3:12
%
And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would:
and they came unto him.
		 -- Mark 3:13
%
And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might
send them forth to preach,
		 -- Mark 3:14
%
And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:
		 -- Mark 3:15
%
And Simon he surnamed Peter;
		 -- Mark 3:16
%
And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he
surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:
		 -- Mark 3:17
%
And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and
James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
		 -- Mark 3:18
%
And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.
		 -- Mark 3:19
%
And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much
as eat bread.
		 -- Mark 3:20
%
And when his friends heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him:
for they said, He is beside himself.
		 -- Mark 3:21
%
And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub,
and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.
		 -- Mark 3:22
%
And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can
Satan cast out Satan?
		 -- Mark 3:23
%
And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
		 -- Mark 3:24
%
And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
		 -- Mark 3:25
%
And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand,
but hath an end.
		 -- Mark 3:26
%
No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except
he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
		 -- Mark 3:27
%
Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men,
and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
		 -- Mark 3:28
%
But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness,
but is in danger of eternal damnation:
		 -- Mark 3:29
%
Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
		 -- Mark 3:30
%
There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without,
sent unto him, calling him.
		 -- Mark 3:31
%
And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy
mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.
		 -- Mark 3:32
%
And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?
		 -- Mark 3:33
%
And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold
my mother and my brethren!
		 -- Mark 3:34
%
For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my
sister, and mother.
		 -- Mark 3:35
%
AND he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto
him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea;
and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.
		 -- Mark 4:1
%
And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his
doctrine,
		 -- Mark 4:2
%
Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:
		 -- Mark 4:3
%
And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the
fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
		 -- Mark 4:4
%
And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and
immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
		 -- Mark 4:5
%
But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root,
it withered away.
		 -- Mark 4:6
%
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it,
and it yielded no fruit.
		 -- Mark 4:7
%
And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and
increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some
an hundred.
		 -- Mark 4:8
%
And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Mark 4:9
%
And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked
of him the parable.
		 -- Mark 4:10
%
And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the
kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are
done in parables:
		 -- Mark 4:11
%
That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear,
and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their
sins should be forgiven them.
		 -- Mark 4:12
%
And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable?  and how then will ye
know all parables?
		 -- Mark 4:13
%
The sower soweth the word.
		 -- Mark 4:14
%
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they
have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was
sown in their hearts.
		 -- Mark 4:15
%
And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when
they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;
		 -- Mark 4:16
%
And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward,
when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately
they are offended.
		 -- Mark 4:17
%
And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
		 -- Mark 4:18
%
And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the
lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh
unfruitful.
		 -- Mark 4:19
%
And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word,
and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty,
and some an hundred.
		 -- Mark 4:20
%
And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel,
or under a bed?  and not to be set on a candlestick?
		 -- Mark 4:21
%
For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was
any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.
		 -- Mark 4:22
%
If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Mark 4:23
%
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete,
it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.
		 -- Mark 4:24
%
For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him
shall be taken even that which he hath.
		 -- Mark 4:25
%
And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into
the ground;
		 -- Mark 4:26
%
And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring
and grow up, he knoweth not how.
		 -- Mark 4:27
%
For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then
the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
		 -- Mark 4:28
%
But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle,
because the harvest is come.
		 -- Mark 4:29
%
And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God?  or with what
comparison shall we compare it?
		 -- Mark 4:30
%
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth,
is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
		 -- Mark 4:31
%
But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs,
and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge
under the shadow of it.
		 -- Mark 4:32
%
And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were
able to hear it.
		 -- Mark 4:33
%
But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone,
he expounded all things to his disciples.
		 -- Mark 4:34
%
And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us
pass over unto the other side.
		 -- Mark 4:35
%
And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was
in the ship.  And there were also with him other little ships.
		 -- Mark 4:36
%
And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship,
so that it was now full.
		 -- Mark 4:37
%
And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they
awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
		 -- Mark 4:38
%
And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace,
be still.  And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
		 -- Mark 4:39
%
And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful?  how is it that ye have
no faith?
		 -- Mark 4:40
%
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of
man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
		 -- Mark 4:41
%
AND they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of
the Gadarenes.
		 -- Mark 5:1
%
And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of
the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
		 -- Mark 5:2
%
Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no,
not with chains:
		 -- Mark 5:3
%
Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the
chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces:
neither could any man tame him.
		 -- Mark 5:4
%
And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs,
crying, and cutting himself with stones.
		 -- Mark 5:5
%
But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
		 -- Mark 5:6
%
And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee,
Jesus, thou Son of the most high God?  I adjure thee by God, that thou
torment me not.
		 -- Mark 5:7
%
For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
		 -- Mark 5:8
%
And he asked him, What is thy name?  And he answered, saying, My name
is Legion: for we are many.
		 -- Mark 5:9
%
And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the
country.
		 -- Mark 5:10
%
Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
		 -- Mark 5:11
%
And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that
we may enter into them.
		 -- Mark 5:12
%
And forthwith Jesus gave them leave.  And the unclean spirits went out,
and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place
into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
		 -- Mark 5:13
%
And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the
country.  And they went out to see what it was that was done.
		 -- Mark 5:14
%
And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil,
and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and
they were afraid.
		 -- Mark 5:15
%
And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed
with the devil, and also concerning the swine.
		 -- Mark 5:16
%
And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.
		 -- Mark 5:17
%
And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the
devil prayed him that he might be with him.
		 -- Mark 5:18
%
Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy
friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee,
and hath had compassion on thee.
		 -- Mark 5:19
%
And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things
Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.
		 -- Mark 5:20
%
And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much
people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.
		 -- Mark 5:21
%
And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by
name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,
		 -- Mark 5:22
%
And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point
of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be
healed; and she shall live.
		 -- Mark 5:23
%
And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.
		 -- Mark 5:24
%
And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
		 -- Mark 5:25
%
And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that
she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
		 -- Mark 5:26
%
When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched
his garment.
		 -- Mark 5:27
%
For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
		 -- Mark 5:28
%
And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in
her body that she was healed of that plague.
		 -- Mark 5:29
%
And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him,
turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
		 -- Mark 5:30
%
And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee,
and sayest thou, Who touched me?
		 -- Mark 5:31
%
And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
		 -- Mark 5:32
%
But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her,
came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
		 -- Mark 5:33
%
And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in
peace, and be whole of thy plague.
		 -- Mark 5:34
%
While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house
certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master
any further?
		 -- Mark 5:35
%
As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler
of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
		 -- Mark 5:36
%
And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John
the brother of James.
		 -- Mark 5:37
%
And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the
tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.
		 -- Mark 5:38
%
And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado,
and weep?  the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
		 -- Mark 5:39
%
And they laughed him to scorn.	But when he had put them all out, he
taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with
him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.
		 -- Mark 5:40
%
And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi;
which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.
		 -- Mark 5:41
%
And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of
twelve years.  And they were astonished with a great astonishment.
		 -- Mark 5:42
%
And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded
that something should be given her to eat.
		 -- Mark 5:43
%
AND he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his
disciples follow him.
		 -- Mark 6:1
%
And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue:
and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this
man these things?  and what wisdom is this which is given unto him,
that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?
		 -- Mark 6:2
%
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and
Joses, and of Juda, and Simon?	and are not his sisters here with us?
And they were offended at him.
		 -- Mark 6:3
%
But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his
own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
		 -- Mark 6:4
%
And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon
a few sick folk, and healed them.
		 -- Mark 6:5
%
And he marvelled because of their unbelief.  And he went round about
the villages, teaching.
		 -- Mark 6:6
%
And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two
and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;
		 -- Mark 6:7
%
And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey,
save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:
		 -- Mark 6:8
%
But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
		 -- Mark 6:9
%
And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house,
there abide till ye depart from that place.
		 -- Mark 6:10
%
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence,
shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them.  Verily I
say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the
day of judgment, than for that city.
		 -- Mark 6:11
%
And they went out, and preached that men should repent.
		 -- Mark 6:12
%
And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick,
and healed them.
		 -- Mark 6:13
%
And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he
said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty
works do shew forth themselves in him.
		 -- Mark 6:14
%
Others said, That it is Elias.	And others said, That it is a prophet,
or as one of the prophets.
		 -- Mark 6:15
%
But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded:
he is risen from the dead.
		 -- Mark 6:16
%
For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound
him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had
married her.
		 -- Mark 6:17
%
For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy
brother's wife.
		 -- Mark 6:18
%
Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him;
but she could not:
		 -- Mark 6:19
%
For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy,
and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard
him gladly.
		 -- Mark 6:20
%
And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a
supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee;
		 -- Mark 6:21

And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and
pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel,
Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
		 -- Mark 6:22
%
And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it
thee, unto the half of my kingdom.
		 -- Mark 6:23
%
And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask?  And she
said, The head of John the Baptist.
		 -- Mark 6:24
%
And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying,
I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the
Baptist.
		 -- Mark 6:25
%
And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their
sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.
		 -- Mark 6:26
%
And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to
be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
		 -- Mark 6:27
%
And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the
damsel gave it to her mother.
		 -- Mark 6:28
%
And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse,
and laid it in a tomb.
		 -- Mark 6:29
%
And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him
all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
		 -- Mark 6:30
%
And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place,
and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no
leisure so much as to eat.
		 -- Mark 6:31
%
And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.
		 -- Mark 6:32
%
And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot
thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.
		 -- Mark 6:33
%
And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with
compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd:
and he began to teach them many things.
		 -- Mark 6:34
%
And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said,
This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:
		 -- Mark 6:35
%
Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into
the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.
		 -- Mark 6:36
%
He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat.  And they say unto
him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them
to eat?
		 -- Mark 6:37
%
He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye?  go and see.  And when they
knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.
		 -- Mark 6:38
%
And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green
grass.
		 -- Mark 6:39
%
And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.
		 -- Mark 6:40
%
And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to
heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples
to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.
		 -- Mark 6:41
%
And they did all eat, and were filled.
		 -- Mark 6:42
%
And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.
		 -- Mark 6:43
%
And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.
		 -- Mark 6:44
%
And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to
go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.
		 -- Mark 6:45
%
And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.
		 -- Mark 6:46
%
And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he
alone on the land.
		 -- Mark 6:47
%
And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them:
and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking
upon the sea, and would have passed by them.
		 -- Mark 6:48
%
But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been
a spirit, and cried out:
		 -- Mark 6:49
%
For they all saw him, and were troubled.  And immediately he talked with
them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
		 -- Mark 6:50
%
And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they
were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.
		 -- Mark 6:51
%
For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart
was hardened.
		 -- Mark 6:52
%
And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret,
and drew to the shore.
		 -- Mark 6:53
%
And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,
		 -- Mark 6:54
%
And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about
in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.
		 -- Mark 6:55
%
And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they
laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if
it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were
made whole.
		 -- Mark 6:56
%
THEN came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes,
which came from Jerusalem.
		 -- Mark 7:1
%
And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is
to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.
		 -- Mark 7:2
%
For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft,
eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
		 -- Mark 7:3
%
And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not.
And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as
the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.
		 -- Mark 7:4
%
Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples
according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen
hands?
		 -- Mark 7:5
%
He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you
hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips,
but their heart is far from me.
		 -- Mark 7:6
%
Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men.
		 -- Mark 7:7
%
For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men,
as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
		 -- Mark 7:8
%
And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God,
that ye may keep your own tradition.
		 -- Mark 7:9
%
For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth
father or mother, let him die the death:
		 -- Mark 7:10
%
But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban,
that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
he shall be free.
		 -- Mark 7:11
%
And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;
		 -- Mark 7:12
%
Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye
have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
		 -- Mark 7:13
%
And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them,
Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:
		 -- Mark 7:14
%
There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile
him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile
the man.
		 -- Mark 7:15
%
If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Mark 7:16
%
And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples
asked him concerning the parable.
		 -- Mark 7:17
%
And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also?  Do ye
not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man,
it cannot defile him;
		 -- Mark 7:18
%
Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth
out into the draught, purging all meats?
		 -- Mark 7:19
%
And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
		 -- Mark 7:20
%
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
adulteries, fornications, murders,
		 -- Mark 7:21
%
Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye,
blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
		 -- Mark 7:22
%
All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
		 -- Mark 7:23
%
And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon,
and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could
not be hid.
		 -- Mark 7:24
%
For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard
of him, and came and fell at his feet:
		 -- Mark 7:25
%
The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him
that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
		 -- Mark 7:26
%
But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is
not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.
		 -- Mark 7:27
%
And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the
table eat of the children's crumbs.
		 -- Mark 7:28
%
And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out
of thy daughter.
		 -- Mark 7:29
%
And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and
her daughter laid upon the bed.
		 -- Mark 7:30
%
And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto
the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.
		 -- Mark 7:31
%
And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his
speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
		 -- Mark 7:32
%
And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his
ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;
		 -- Mark 7:33
%
And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha,
that is, Be opened.
		 -- Mark 7:34
%
And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was
loosed, and he spake plain.
		 -- Mark 7:35
%
And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged
them, so much the more a great deal they published it;
		 -- Mark 7:36
%
And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well:
he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
		 -- Mark 7:37
%
IN those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat,
Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
		 -- Mark 8:1
%
I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me
three days, and have nothing to eat:
		 -- Mark 8:2
%
And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by
the way: for divers of them came from far.
		 -- Mark 8:3
%
And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men
with bread here in the wilderness?
		 -- Mark 8:4
%
And he asked them, How many loaves have ye?  And they said, Seven.
		 -- Mark 8:5
%
And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the
seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to
set before them; and they did set them before the people.
		 -- Mark 8:6
%
And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set
them also before them.
		 -- Mark 8:7
%
So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat
that was left seven baskets.
		 -- Mark 8:8
%
And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
		 -- Mark 8:9
%
And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into
the parts of Dalmanutha.
		 -- Mark 8:10
%
And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking
of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
		 -- Mark 8:11
%
And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation
seek after a sign?  verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given
unto this generation.
		 -- Mark 8:12
%
And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the
other side.
		 -- Mark 8:13
%
Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the
ship with them more than one loaf.
		 -- Mark 8:14
%
And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the
Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
		 -- Mark 8:15
%
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have
no bread.
		 -- Mark 8:16
%
And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye
have no bread?	perceive ye not yet, neither understand?  have ye your
heart yet hardened?
		 -- Mark 8:17
%
Having eyes, see ye not?  and having ears, hear ye not?  and do ye
not remember?
		 -- Mark 8:18
%
When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full
of fragments took ye up?  They say unto him, Twelve.
		 -- Mark 8:19
%
And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments
took ye up?  And they said, Seven.
		 -- Mark 8:20
%
And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
		 -- Mark 8:21
%
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and
besought him to touch him.
		 -- Mark 8:22
%
And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town;
and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked
him if he saw ought.
		 -- Mark 8:23
%
And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
		 -- Mark 8:24
%
After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up:
and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
		 -- Mark 8:25
%
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town,
nor tell it to any in the town.
		 -- Mark 8:26
%
And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea
Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them,
Whom do men say that I am?
		 -- Mark 8:27
%
And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others,
One of the prophets.
		 -- Mark 8:28
%
And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?  And Peter answereth
and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.
		 -- Mark 8:29
%
And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
		 -- Mark 8:30
%
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things,
and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes,
and be killed, and after three days rise again.
		 -- Mark 8:31
%
And he spake that saying openly.  And Peter took him, and began to
rebuke him.
		 -- Mark 8:32
%
But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked
Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the
things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
		 -- Mark 8:33
%
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also,
he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself,
and take up his cross, and follow me.
		 -- Mark 8:34
%
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose
his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
		 -- Mark 8:35
%
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and
lose his own soul?
		 -- Mark 8:36
%
Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
		 -- Mark 8:37
%
Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this
adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be
ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
		 -- Mark 8:38
%
AND he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of
them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have
seen the kingdom of God come with power.
		 -- Mark 9:1
%
And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John,
and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he
was transfigured before them.
		 -- Mark 9:2
%
And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller
on earth can white them.
		 -- Mark 9:3
%
And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking
with Jesus.
		 -- Mark 9:4
%
And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be
here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses,
and one for Elias.
		 -- Mark 9:5
%
For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.
		 -- Mark 9:6
%
And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of
the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
		 -- Mark 9:7
%
And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more,
save Jesus only with themselves.
		 -- Mark 9:8
%
And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should
tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen
from the dead.
		 -- Mark 9:9
%
And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another
what the rising from the dead should mean.
		 -- Mark 9:10
%
And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first
come?
		 -- Mark 9:11
%
And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth
all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer
many things, and be set at nought.
		 -- Mark 9:12
%
But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto
him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
		 -- Mark 9:13
%
And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them,
and the scribes questioning with them.
		 -- Mark 9:14
%
And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed
and, running to him saluted him.
		 -- Mark 9:15
%
And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?
		 -- Mark 9:16
%
And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto
thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;
		 -- Mark 9:17
%
And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and
gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples
that they should cast him out; and they could not.
		 -- Mark 9:18
%
He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I
be with you?  how long shall I suffer you?  bring him unto me.
		 -- Mark 9:19
%
And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the
spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
		 -- Mark 9:20
%
And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him?
And he said, Of a child.
		 -- Mark 9:21
%
And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to
destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us,
and help us.
		 -- Mark 9:22
%
Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to
him that believeth.
		 -- Mark 9:23
%
And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears,
Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
		 -- Mark 9:24
%
When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the
foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee,
come out of him, and enter no more into him.
		 -- Mark 9:25
%
And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he
was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.
		 -- Mark 9:26
%
But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
		 -- Mark 9:27
%
And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately,
Why could not we cast him out?
		 -- Mark 9:28
%
And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer
and fasting.
		 -- Mark 9:29
%
And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not
that any man should know it.
		 -- Mark 9:30
%
For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is
delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that
he is killed, he shall rise the third day.
		 -- Mark 9:31
%
But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.
		 -- Mark 9:32
%
And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What
was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
		 -- Mark 9:33
%
But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among
themselves, who should be the greatest.
		 -- Mark 9:34
%
And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man
desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
		 -- Mark 9:35
%
And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had
taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
		 -- Mark 9:36
%
Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me:
and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
		 -- Mark 9:37
%
And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils
in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he
followeth not us.
		 -- Mark 9:38
%
But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a
miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
		 -- Mark 9:39
%
For he that is not against us is on our part.
		 -- Mark 9:40
%
For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because
ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.
		 -- Mark 9:41
%
And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me,
it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and
he were cast into the sea.
		 -- Mark 9:42
%
And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter
into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire
that never shall be quenched:
		 -- Mark 9:43
%
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
		 -- Mark 9:44
%
And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter
halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire
that never shall be quenched:
		 -- Mark 9:45
%
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
		 -- Mark 9:46
%
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to
enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be
cast into hell fire:
		 -- Mark 9:47
%
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
		 -- Mark 9:48
%
For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be
salted with salt.
		 -- Mark 9:49
%
Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye
season it?  Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
		 -- Mark 9:50
%
AND he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the
farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and,
as he was wont, he taught them again.
		 -- Mark 10:1
%
And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to
put away his wife?  tempting him.
		 -- Mark 10:2
%
And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
		 -- Mark 10:3
%
And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to
put her away.
		 -- Mark 10:4
%
And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart
he wrote you this precept.
		 -- Mark 10:5
%
But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
		 -- Mark 10:6
%
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to
his wife;
		 -- Mark 10:7
%
And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain,
but one flesh.
		 -- Mark 10:8
%
What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
		 -- Mark 10:9
%
And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.
		 -- Mark 10:10
%
And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry
another, committeth adultery against her.
		 -- Mark 10:11
%
And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another,
she committeth adultery.
		 -- Mark 10:12
%
And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them:
and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
		 -- Mark 10:13
%
But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them,
Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of
such is the kingdom of God.
		 -- Mark 10:14
%
Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God
as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
		 -- Mark 10:15
%
And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed
them.
		 -- Mark 10:16
%
And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and
kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may
inherit eternal life?
		 -- Mark 10:17
%
And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good?  there is none good
but one, that is, God.
		 -- Mark 10:18
%
Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill,
Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father
and mother.
		 -- Mark 10:19
%
And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed
from my youth.
		 -- Mark 10:20
%
Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou
lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross,
and follow me.
		 -- Mark 10:21
%
And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great
possessions.
		 -- Mark 10:22
%
And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly
shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
		 -- Mark 10:23
%
And the disciples were astonished at his words.  But Jesus answereth
again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust
in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
		 -- Mark 10:24
%
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a
rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
		 -- Mark 10:25
%
And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who
then can be saved?
		 -- Mark 10:26
%
And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not
with God: for with God all things are possible.
		 -- Mark 10:27
%
Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have
followed thee.
		 -- Mark 10:28
%
And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that
hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife,
or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
		 -- Mark 10:29
%
But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and
brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with
persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
		 -- Mark 10:30
%
But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
		 -- Mark 10:31
%
And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before
them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid.
And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should
happen unto him,
		 -- Mark 10:32
%
Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be
delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall
condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:
		 -- Mark 10:33
%
And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him,
and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
		 -- Mark 10:34
%
And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master,
we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.
		 -- Mark 10:35
%
And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
		 -- Mark 10:36
%
They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand,
and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
		 -- Mark 10:37
%
But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of
the cup that I drink of?  and be baptized with the baptism that I am
baptized with?
		 -- Mark 10:38
%
And they said unto him, We can.  And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall
indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am
baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
		 -- Mark 10:39
%
But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give;
but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
		 -- Mark 10:40
%
And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James
and John.
		 -- Mark 10:41
%
But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they
which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them;
and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
		 -- Mark 10:42
%
But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you,
shall be your minister:
		 -- Mark 10:43
%
And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
		 -- Mark 10:44
%
For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister,
and to give his life a ransom for many.
		 -- Mark 10:45
%
And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples
and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus,
sat by the highway side begging.
		 -- Mark 10:46
%
And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out,
and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
		 -- Mark 10:47
%
And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the
more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
		 -- Mark 10:48
%
And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called.	And they call
the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
		 -- Mark 10:49
%
And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
		 -- Mark 10:50
%
And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto
thee?  The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
		 -- Mark 10:51
%
And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole.
And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
		 -- Mark 10:52
%
AND when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at
the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
		 -- Mark 11:1
%
And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you:
and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon
never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
		 -- Mark 11:2
%
And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this?  say ye that the Lord hath
need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.
		 -- Mark 11:3
%
And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in
a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
		 -- Mark 11:4
%
And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing
the colt?
		 -- Mark 11:5
%
And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
		 -- Mark 11:6
%
And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him;
and he sat upon him.
		 -- Mark 11:7
%
And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches
off the trees, and strawed them in the way.
		 -- Mark 11:8
%
And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna;
Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
		 -- Mark 11:9
%
Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of
the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
		 -- Mark 11:10
%
And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he
had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come,
he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
		 -- Mark 11:11
%
And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
		 -- Mark 11:12
%
And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might
find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but
leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
		 -- Mark 11:13
%
And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter
for ever.  And his disciples heard it.
		 -- Mark 11:14
%
And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began
to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the
tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
		 -- Mark 11:15
%
And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through
the temple.
		 -- Mark 11:16
%
And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be
called of all nations the house of prayer?  but ye have made it a den
of thieves.
		 -- Mark 11:17
%
And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might
destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished
at his doctrine.
		 -- Mark 11:18
%
And when even was come, he went out of the city.
		 -- Mark 11:19
%
And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up
from the roots.
		 -- Mark 11:20
%
And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the
fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
		 -- Mark 11:21
%
And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
		 -- Mark 11:22
%
For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain,
Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in
his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come
to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
		 -- Mark 11:23
%
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray,
believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
		 -- Mark 11:24
%
And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that
your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
		 -- Mark 11:25
%
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven
forgive your trespasses.
		 -- Mark 11:26
%
And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple,
there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
		 -- Mark 11:27
%
And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things?  and who
gave thee this authority to do these things?
		 -- Mark 11:28
%
And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one
question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do
these things.
		 -- Mark 11:29
%
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?  answer me.
		 -- Mark 11:30
%
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven;
he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
		 -- Mark 11:31
%
But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted
John, that he was a prophet indeed.
		 -- Mark 11:32
%
And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell.	And Jesus
answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do
these things.
		 -- Mark 11:33
%
AND he began to speak unto them by parables.  A certain man planted a
vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat,
and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far
country.
		 -- Mark 12:1
%
And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might
receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
		 -- Mark 12:2
%
And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.
		 -- Mark 12:3
%
And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones,
and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
		 -- Mark 12:4
%
And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating
some, and killing some.
		 -- Mark 12:5
%
Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last
unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
		 -- Mark 12:6
%
But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come,
let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
		 -- Mark 12:7
%
And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
		 -- Mark 12:8
%
What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do?  he will come and
destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.
		 -- Mark 12:9
%
And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected
is become the head of the corner:
		 -- Mark 12:10
%
This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
		 -- Mark 12:11
%
And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they
knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him,
and went their way.
		 -- Mark 12:12
%
And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians,
to catch him in his words.
		 -- Mark 12:13
%
And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art
true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men,
but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to
Caesar, or not?
		 -- Mark 12:14
%
Shall we give, or shall we not give?  But he, knowing their hypocrisy,
said unto them, Why tempt ye me?  bring me a penny, that I may see it.
		 -- Mark 12:15
%
And they brought it.  And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and
superscription?  And they said unto him, Caesar's.
		 -- Mark 12:16
%
And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that
are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.  And they marvelled
at him.
		 -- Mark 12:17
%
Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection;
and they asked him, saying,
		 -- Mark 12:18
%
Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his wife
behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife,
and raise up seed unto his brother.
		 -- Mark 12:19
%
Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left
no seed.
		 -- Mark 12:20
%
And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the
third likewise.
		 -- Mark 12:21
%
And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.
		 -- Mark 12:22
%
In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall
she be of them?  for the seven had her to wife.
		 -- Mark 12:23
%
And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye
know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?
		 -- Mark 12:24
%
For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are
given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.
		 -- Mark 12:25
%
And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book
of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of
Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
		 -- Mark 12:26
%
He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore
do greatly err.
		 -- Mark 12:27
%
And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together,
and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the
first commandment of all?
		 -- Mark 12:28
%
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear,
O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
		 -- Mark 12:29
%
And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all
thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the
first commandment.
		 -- Mark 12:30
%
And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself.  There is none other commandment greater than these.
		 -- Mark 12:31
%
And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth:
for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
		 -- Mark 12:32
%
And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and
with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour
as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
		 -- Mark 12:33
%
And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou
art not far from the kingdom of God.  And no man after that durst ask
him any question.
		 -- Mark 12:34
%
And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the
scribes that Christ is the Son of David?
		 -- Mark 12:35
%
For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord,
Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
		 -- Mark 12:36
%
David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son?
And the common people heard him gladly.
		 -- Mark 12:37
%
And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love
to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,
		 -- Mark 12:38
%
And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:
		 -- Mark 12:39
%
Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers:
these shall receive greater damnation.
		 -- Mark 12:40
%
And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast
money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
		 -- Mark 12:41
%
And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which
make a farthing.
		 -- Mark 12:42
%
And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say
unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which
have cast into the treasury:
		 -- Mark 12:43
%
For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did
cast in all that she had, even all her living.
		 -- Mark 12:44
%
AND as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him,
Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!
		 -- Mark 13:1
%
And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings?
there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be
thrown down.
		 -- Mark 13:2
%
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter
and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
		 -- Mark 13:3
%
Tell us, when shall these things be?  and what shall be the sign when
all these things shall be fulfilled?
		 -- Mark 13:4
%
And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:
		 -- Mark 13:5
%
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive
many.
		 -- Mark 13:6
%
And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled:
for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
		 -- Mark 13:7
%
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and
there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines
and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
		 -- Mark 13:8
%
But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils;
and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before
rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.
		 -- Mark 13:9
%
And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
		 -- Mark 13:10
%
But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought
beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever
shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that
speak, but the Holy Ghost.
		 -- Mark 13:11
%
Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the
son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause
them to be put to death.
		 -- Mark 13:12
%
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall
endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
		 -- Mark 13:13
%
But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by
Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth
understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:
		 -- Mark 13:14
%
And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither
enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:
		 -- Mark 13:15
%
And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up
his garment.
		 -- Mark 13:16
%
But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in
those days!
		 -- Mark 13:17
%
And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.
		 -- Mark 13:18
%
For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning
of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.
		 -- Mark 13:19
%
And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be
saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened
the days.
		 -- Mark 13:20
%
And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is
there; believe him not:
		 -- Mark 13:21
%
For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs
and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
		 -- Mark 13:22
%
But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
		 -- Mark 13:23
%
But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened,
and the moon shall not give her light,
		 -- Mark 13:24
%
And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven
shall be shaken.
		 -- Mark 13:25
%
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great
power and glory.
		 -- Mark 13:26
%
And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect
from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost
part of heaven.
		 -- Mark 13:27
%
Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender,
and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:
		 -- Mark 13:28
%
So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass,
know that it is nigh, even at the doors.
		 -- Mark 13:29
%
Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all
these things be done.
		 -- Mark 13:30
%
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
		 -- Mark 13:31
%
But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which
are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
		 -- Mark 13:32
%
Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.
		 -- Mark 13:33
%
For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his
house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work,
and commanded the porter to watch.
		 -- Mark 13:34
%
Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh,
at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
		 -- Mark 13:35
%
Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
		 -- Mark 13:36
%
And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
		 -- Mark 13:37
%
AFTER two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread:
and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by
craft, and put him to death.
		 -- Mark 14:1
%
But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the
people.
		 -- Mark 14:2
%
And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat,
there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very
precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.
		 -- Mark 14:3
%
And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said,
Why was this waste of the ointment made?
		 -- Mark 14:4
%
For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have
been given to the poor.  And they murmured against her.
		 -- Mark 14:5
%
And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her?  she hath wrought a
good work on me.
		 -- Mark 14:6
%
For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do
them good: but me ye have not always.
		 -- Mark 14:7
%
She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body
to the burying.
		 -- Mark 14:8
%
Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached
throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken
of for a memorial of her.
		 -- Mark 14:9
%
And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests,
to betray him unto them.
		 -- Mark 14:10
%
And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money.
And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
		 -- Mark 14:11
%
And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover,
his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that
thou mayest eat the passover?
		 -- Mark 14:12
%
And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye
into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water:
follow him.
		 -- Mark 14:13
%
And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The
Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover
with my disciples?
		 -- Mark 14:14
%
And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there
make ready for us.
		 -- Mark 14:15
%
And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he
had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
		 -- Mark 14:16
%
And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
		 -- Mark 14:17
%
And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of
you which eateth with me shall betray me.
		 -- Mark 14:18
%
And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I?
and another said, Is it I?
		 -- Mark 14:19
%
And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth
with me in the dish.
		 -- Mark 14:20
%
The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that
man by whom the Son of man is betrayed!  good were it for that man if
he had never been born.
		 -- Mark 14:21
%
And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and
gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
		 -- Mark 14:22
%
And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them:
and they all drank of it.
		 -- Mark 14:23
%
And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is
shed for many.
		 -- Mark 14:24
%
Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine,
until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.
		 -- Mark 14:25
%
And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
		 -- Mark 14:26
%
And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this
night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall
be scattered.
		 -- Mark 14:27
%
But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
		 -- Mark 14:28
%
But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.
		 -- Mark 14:29
%
And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even
in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.
		 -- Mark 14:30
%
But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not
deny thee in any wise.	Likewise also said they all.
		 -- Mark 14:31
%
And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to
his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.
		 -- Mark 14:32
%
And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore
amazed, and to be very heavy;
		 -- Mark 14:33
%
And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry
ye here, and watch.
		 -- Mark 14:34
%
And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that,
if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
		 -- Mark 14:35
%
And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away
this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
		 -- Mark 14:36
%
And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon,
sleepest thou?	couldest not thou watch one hour?
		 -- Mark 14:37
%
Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.  The spirit truly is
ready, but the flesh is weak.
		 -- Mark 14:38
%
And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.
		 -- Mark 14:39
%
And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were
heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.
		 -- Mark 14:40
%
And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and
take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man
is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
		 -- Mark 14:41
%
Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
		 -- Mark 14:42
%
And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve,
and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief
priests and the scribes and the elders.
		 -- Mark 14:43
%
And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I
shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.
		 -- Mark 14:44
%
And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith,
Master, master; and kissed him.
		 -- Mark 14:45
%
And they laid their hands on him, and took him.
		 -- Mark 14:46
%
And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the
high priest, and cut off his ear.
		 -- Mark 14:47
%
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a
thief, with swords and with staves to take me?
		 -- Mark 14:48
%
I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but
the scriptures must be fulfilled.
		 -- Mark 14:49
%
And they all forsook him, and fled.
		 -- Mark 14:50
%
And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast
about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:
		 -- Mark 14:51
%
And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.
		 -- Mark 14:52
%
And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled
all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.
		 -- Mark 14:53
%
And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest:
and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.
		 -- Mark 14:54
%
And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against
Jesus to put him to death; and found none.
		 -- Mark 14:55
%
For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not
together.
		 -- Mark 14:56
%
And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,
		 -- Mark 14:57
%
We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands,
and within three days I will build another made without hands.
		 -- Mark 14:58
%
But neither so did their witness agree together.
		 -- Mark 14:59
%
And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying,
Answerest thou nothing?  what is it which these witness against thee?
		 -- Mark 14:60
%
But he held his peace, and answered nothing.  Again the high priest
asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
		 -- Mark 14:61
%
And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the
right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
		 -- Mark 14:62
%
Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any
further witnesses?
		 -- Mark 14:63
%
Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye?  And they all condemned him
to be guilty of death.
		 -- Mark 14:64
%
And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him,
and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the
palms of their hands.
		 -- Mark 14:65
%
And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids
of the high priest:
		 -- Mark 14:66
%
And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said,
And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
		 -- Mark 14:67
%
But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest.
And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.
		 -- Mark 14:68
%
And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This
is one of them.
		 -- Mark 14:69
%
And he denied it again.  And a little after, they that stood by said
again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean,
and thy speech agreeth thereto.
		 -- Mark 14:70
%
But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom
ye speak.
		 -- Mark 14:71
%
And the second time the cock crew.  And Peter called to mind the word
that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny
me thrice.  And when he thought thereon, he wept.
		 -- Mark 14:72
%
AND straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation
with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus,
and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
		 -- Mark 15:1
%
And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews?  And he answering
said unto him, Thou sayest it.
		 -- Mark 15:2
%
And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.
		 -- Mark 15:3
%
And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing?  behold how
many things they witness against thee.
		 -- Mark 15:4
%
But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
		 -- Mark 15:5
%
Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they
desired.
		 -- Mark 15:6
%
And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had
made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
		 -- Mark 15:7
%
And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever
done unto them.
		 -- Mark 15:8
%
But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the
King of the Jews?
		 -- Mark 15:9
%
For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.
		 -- Mark 15:10
%
But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release
Barabbas unto them.
		 -- Mark 15:11
%
And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I
shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?
		 -- Mark 15:12
%
And they cried out again, Crucify him.
		 -- Mark 15:13
%
Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done?  And they cried
out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
		 -- Mark 15:14
%
And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them,
and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
		 -- Mark 15:15
%
And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they
call together the whole band.
		 -- Mark 15:16
%
And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and
put it about his head,
		 -- Mark 15:17
%
And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
		 -- Mark 15:18
%
And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him,
and bowing their knees worshipped him.
		 -- Mark 15:19
%
And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and
put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
		 -- Mark 15:20
%
And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the
country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
		 -- Mark 15:21
%
And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted,
The place of a skull.
		 -- Mark 15:22
%
And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received
it not.
		 -- Mark 15:23
%
And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots
upon them, what every man should take.
		 -- Mark 15:24
%
And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
		 -- Mark 15:25
%
And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF
THE JEWS.
		 -- Mark 15:26
%
And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and
the other on his left.
		 -- Mark 15:27
%
And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with
the transgressors.
		 -- Mark 15:28
%
And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying,
Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,
		 -- Mark 15:29
%
Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
		 -- Mark 15:30
%
Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the
scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
		 -- Mark 15:31
%
Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may
see and believe.  And they that were crucified with him reviled him.
		 -- Mark 15:32
%
And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land
until the ninth hour.
		 -- Mark 15:33
%
And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi,
Eloi, lama sabachthani?  which is, being interpreted, My God, my God,
why hast thou forsaken me?
		 -- Mark 15:34
%
And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he
calleth Elias.
		 -- Mark 15:35
%
And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed,
and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will
come to take him down.
		 -- Mark 15:36
%
And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
		 -- Mark 15:37
%
And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
		 -- Mark 15:38
%
And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried
out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.
		 -- Mark 15:39
%
There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene,
and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
		 -- Mark 15:40
%
(Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;)
and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
		 -- Mark 15:41
%
And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is,
the day before the sabbath,
		 -- Mark 15:42
%
Joseph of Arimathaea, and honourable counsellor, which also waited for
the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved
the body of Jesus.
		 -- Mark 15:43
%
And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the
centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.
		 -- Mark 15:44
%
And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
		 -- Mark 15:45
%
And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen,
and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a
stone unto the door of the sepulchre.
		 -- Mark 15:46
%
And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
		 -- Mark 15:47
%
AND when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of
James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and
anoint him.
		 -- Mark 16:1
%
And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto
the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.
		 -- Mark 16:2
%
And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from
the door of the sepulchre?
		 -- Mark 16:3
%
And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it
was very great.
		 -- Mark 16:4
%
And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the
right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.
		 -- Mark 16:5
%
And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth,
which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where
they laid him.
		 -- Mark 16:6
%
But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you
into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.
		 -- Mark 16:7
%
And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they
trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for
they were afraid.
		 -- Mark 16:8
%
Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared
first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
		 -- Mark 16:9
%
And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned
and wept.
		 -- Mark 16:10
%
And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her,
believed not.
		 -- Mark 16:11
%
After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked,
and went into the country.
		 -- Mark 16:12
%
And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.
		 -- Mark 16:13
%
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided
them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed
not them which had seen him after he was risen.
		 -- Mark 16:14
%
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel
to every creature.
		 -- Mark 16:15
%
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth
not shall be damned.
		 -- Mark 16:16
%
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they
cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
		 -- Mark 16:17
%
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall
not hurt them: they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
		 -- Mark 16:18
%
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into
heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
		 -- Mark 16:19
%
And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them,
and confirming the word with signs following.  Amen.
		 -- Mark 16:20
%
FORASMUCH as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration
of those things which are most surely believed among us,
		 -- Luke 1:1
%
Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were
eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
		 -- Luke 1:2
%
It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all
things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent
Theophilus,
		 -- Luke 1:3
%
That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast
been instructed.
		 -- Luke 1:4
%
THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named
Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of
Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
		 -- Luke 1:5
%
And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments
and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
		 -- Luke 1:6
%
And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both
were now well stricken in years.
		 -- Luke 1:7
%
And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before
God in the order of his course,
		 -- Luke 1:8
%
According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn
incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
		 -- Luke 1:9
%
And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time
of incense.
		 -- Luke 1:10
%
And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right
side of the altar of incense.
		 -- Luke 1:11
%
And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
		 -- Luke 1:12
%
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard;
and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his
name John.
		 -- Luke 1:13
%
And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
		 -- Luke 1:14
%
For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither
wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost,
even from his mother's womb.
		 -- Luke 1:15
%
And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
		 -- Luke 1:16
%
And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn
the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the
wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
		 -- Luke 1:17
%
And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this?  for I am
an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
		 -- Luke 1:18
%
And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the
presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these
glad tidings.
		 -- Luke 1:19
%
And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day
that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words,
which shall be fulfilled in their season.
		 -- Luke 1:20
%
And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so
long in the temple.
		 -- Luke 1:21
%
And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived
that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them,
and remained speechless.
		 -- Luke 1:22
%
And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were
accomplished, he departed to his own house.
		 -- Luke 1:23
%
And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five
months, saying,
		 -- Luke 1:24
%
Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me,
to take away my reproach among men.
		 -- Luke 1:25
%
And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city
of Galilee, named Nazareth,
		 -- Luke 1:26
%
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of
David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
		 -- Luke 1:27
%
And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly
favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
		 -- Luke 1:28
%
And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her
mind what manner of salutation this should be.
		 -- Luke 1:29
%
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour
with God.
		 -- Luke 1:30
%
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son,
and shalt call his name JESUS.
		 -- Luke 1:31
%
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the
Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
		 -- Luke 1:32
%
And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom
there shall be no end.
		 -- Luke 1:33
%
Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
		 -- Luke 1:34
%
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon
thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore
also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the
Son of God.
		 -- Luke 1:35
%
And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her
old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
		 -- Luke 1:36
%
For with God nothing shall be impossible.
		 -- Luke 1:37
%
And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according
to thy word.  And the angel departed from her.
		 -- Luke 1:38
%
And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste,
into a city of Juda;
		 -- Luke 1:39
%
And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
		 -- Luke 1:40
%
And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary,
the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
		 -- Luke 1:41
%
And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among
women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
		 -- Luke 1:42
%
And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
		 -- Luke 1:43
%
For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears,
the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
		 -- Luke 1:44
%
And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of
those things which were told her from the Lord.
		 -- Luke 1:45
%
And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
		 -- Luke 1:46
%
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
		 -- Luke 1:47
%
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold,
from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
		 -- Luke 1:48
%
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
		 -- Luke 1:49
%
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
		 -- Luke 1:50
%
He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in
the imagination of their hearts.
		 -- Luke 1:51
%
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of
low degree.
		 -- Luke 1:52
%
He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent
empty away.
		 -- Luke 1:53
%
He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
		 -- Luke 1:54
%
As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
		 -- Luke 1:55
%
And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
		 -- Luke 1:56
%
Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she
brought forth a son.
		 -- Luke 1:57
%
And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great
mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
		 -- Luke 1:58
%
And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the
child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
		 -- Luke 1:59
%
And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
		 -- Luke 1:60
%
And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by
this name.
		 -- Luke 1:61
%
And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
		 -- Luke 1:62
%
And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John.
And they marvelled all.
		 -- Luke 1:63
%
And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake,
and praised God.
		 -- Luke 1:64
%
And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings
were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.
		 -- Luke 1:65
%
And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What
manner of child shall this be!	And the hand of the Lord was with him.
		 -- Luke 1:66
%
And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied,
saying,
		 -- Luke 1:67
%
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed
his people,
		 -- Luke 1:68
%
And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his
servant David;
		 -- Luke 1:69
%
As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since
the world began:
		 -- Luke 1:70
%
That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that
hate us;
		 -- Luke 1:71
%
To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy
covenant;
		 -- Luke 1:72
%
The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
		 -- Luke 1:73
%
That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of
our enemies might serve him without fear,
		 -- Luke 1:74
%
In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
		 -- Luke 1:75
%
And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou
shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
		 -- Luke 1:76
%
To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of
their sins,
		 -- Luke 1:77
%
Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high
hath visited us,
		 -- Luke 1:78
%
To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the way of peace.
		 -- Luke 1:79
%
And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts
till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
		 -- Luke 1:80
%
AND it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from
Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
		 -- Luke 2:1
%
(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
		 -- Luke 2:2
%
And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
		 -- Luke 2:3
%
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into
Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he
was of the house and lineage of David:)
		 -- Luke 2:4
%
To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
		 -- Luke 2:5
%
And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished
that she should be delivered.
		 -- Luke 2:6
%
And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling
clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them
in the inn.
		 -- Luke 2:7
%
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field,
keeping watch over their flock by night.
		 -- Luke 2:8
%
And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord
shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
		 -- Luke 2:9
%
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good
tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

of them, and were washing their nets.

deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

the fishes which they had taken:

priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded,
for a testimony unto them.

%
And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there

%
And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy:
and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.

of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through
the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.

%
And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are
forgiven thee.

%
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this
which speaketh blasphemies?  Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
		 -- Luke 5:21
%
But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them,
What reason ye in your hearts?
		 -- Luke 5:22
%
Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise
up and walk?
		 -- Luke 5:23
%
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to
forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee,
Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house.

%
And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay,
and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

%
And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with
fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.

%
And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great
company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.

%
But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying,
Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
		 -- Luke 5:30
%
And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a
physician; but they that are sick.

%
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

%
And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and
make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine
eat and drink?

%
And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast,
while the bridegroom is with them?
		 -- Luke 5:34
%
But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them,
and then shall they fast in those days.
		 -- Luke 5:35

garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent,
and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old.

%
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will
burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.

through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn,

%
And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is
not lawful to do on the sabbath days?

%
And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what
David did, when himself was an hungred, and they which were with him;
		 -- Luke 6:3
%
How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread,
and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat
but for the priests alone?

%
And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

%
And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the
synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.
		 -- Luke 6:6
%
And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the
sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.

%
But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered
hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst.  And he arose and stood
forth.

%
Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the
sabbath days to do good, or to do evil?  to save life, or to destroy it?

%
And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth
thy hand.  And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

they might do to Jesus.

And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to
pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of
his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and
Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear
him, and to be healed of their diseases;

Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate
you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name
as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward
is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the
prophets.

But woe unto you that are rich!  for ye have received your consolation.

Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy
goods ask them not again.

For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye?  for sinners
also love those that love them.

that is in thy brother's eye.

%
For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt
tree bring forth good fruit.

which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will
shew you to whom he is like:
		 -- Luke 6:47
%
He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the
foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently
upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
		 -- Luke 6:48
%
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a
foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did
beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house
was great.

%
NOW when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people,
he entered into Capernaum.
		 -- Luke 7:1
%
And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick,
and ready to die.
		 -- Luke 7:2
%
And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews,
beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
		 -- Luke 7:3
%
And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That
he was worthy for whom he should do this:
		 -- Luke 7:4
%
For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
		 -- Luke 7:5
%
Then Jesus went with them.  And when he was now not far from the house,
the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not
thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
		 -- Luke 7:6
%
Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in
a word, and my servant shall be healed.
		 -- Luke 7:7
%
For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and
I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh;
and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
		 -- Luke 7:8
%
When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about,
and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not
found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

%
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole
that had been sick.

%
And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain;
and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.
		 -- Luke 7:11
%
Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead
man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and
much people of the city was with her.
		 -- Luke 7:12
%
And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her,
Weep not.
		 -- Luke 7:13
%
And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still.
And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
		 -- Luke 7:14
%
And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak.  And he delivered him
to his mother.
		 -- Luke 7:15
%
And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a
great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
		 -- Luke 7:16
%
And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout
all the region round about.
		 -- Luke 7:17
%
And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.

%
And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus,
saying, Art thou he that should come?  or look we for another?

%
When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us
unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come?  or look we for another?
		 -- Luke 7:20
%
And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues,
and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.
		 -- Luke 7:21
%
Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what
things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk,
the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor
the gospel is preached.
		 -- Luke 7:22
%
And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
		 -- Luke 7:23
%
And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the
people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see?
A reed shaken with the wind?
		 -- Luke 7:24
%
But what went ye out for to see?  A man clothed in soft raiment?  Behold,
they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings'
courts.
		 -- Luke 7:25
%
But what went ye out for to see?  A prophet?  Yea, I say unto you,
and much more than a prophet.
		 -- Luke 7:26
%
This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
		 -- Luke 7:27
%
For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not
a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the
kingdom of God is greater than he.
		 -- Luke 7:28
%
And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God,
being baptized with the baptism of John.
		 -- Luke 7:29
%
But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against
themselves, being not baptized of him.
		 -- Luke 7:30
%
And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this
generation?  and to what are they like?
		 -- Luke 7:31
%
They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one
to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced;
we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
		 -- Luke 7:32
%
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and
ye say, He hath a devil.
		 -- Luke 7:33
%
The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a
gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
		 -- Luke 7:34
%
But wisdom is justified of all her children.
		 -- Luke 7:35
%
And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him.  And he
went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.
		 -- Luke 7:36
%
And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew
that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster
box of ointment,
		 -- Luke 7:37
%
And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with
tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet,
and anointed them with the ointment.
		 -- Luke 7:38
%
Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within
himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who
and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
		 -- Luke 7:39
%
And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto
thee.  And he saith, Master, say on.
		 -- Luke 7:40
%
There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five
hundred pence, and the other fifty.
		 -- Luke 7:41
%
And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both.  Tell me
therefore, which of them will love him most?
		 -- Luke 7:42
%
Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most.
And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
		 -- Luke 7:43
%
And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman?
I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she
hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
		 -- Luke 7:44
%
Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath
not ceased to kiss my feet.
		 -- Luke 7:45
%
My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my
feet with ointment.
		 -- Luke 7:46
%
Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for
she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
		 -- Luke 7:47
%
And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
		 -- Luke 7:48
%
And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves,
Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
		 -- Luke 7:49
%
And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
		 -- Luke 7:50
%
AND it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and
village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God:
and the twelve were with him,
		 -- Luke 8:1
%
And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities,
Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,
		 -- Luke 8:2
%
And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many
others, which ministered unto him of their substance.
		 -- Luke 8:3
%
And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out
of every city, he spake by a parable:
		 -- Luke 8:4
%
A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way
side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
		 -- Luke 8:5
%
And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered
away, because it lacked moisture.
		 -- Luke 8:6
%
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and
choked it.
		 -- Luke 8:7
%
And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an
hundredfold.  And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath
ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Luke 8:8
%
And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?
		 -- Luke 8:9
%
And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom
of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see,
and hearing they might not understand.
		 -- Luke 8:10
%
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
		 -- Luke 8:11
%
Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and
taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and
be saved.
		 -- Luke 8:12
%
They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with
joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of
temptation fall away.
		 -- Luke 8:13
%
And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard,
go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life,
and bring no fruit to perfection.
		 -- Luke 8:14
%
But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart,
having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
		 -- Luke 8:15
%
No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or
putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which
enter in may see the light.
		 -- Luke 8:16
%
For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any
thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
		 -- Luke 8:17
%
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be
given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which
he seemeth to have.
		 -- Luke 8:18
%
Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him
for the press.
		 -- Luke 8:19
%
And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren
stand without, desiring to see thee.
		 -- Luke 8:20
%
And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these
which hear the word of God, and do it.
		 -- Luke 8:21
%
Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his
disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of
the lake.  And they launched forth.
		 -- Luke 8:22
%
But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind
on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.
		 -- Luke 8:23
%
And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish.
Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and
they ceased, and there was a calm.
		 -- Luke 8:24
%
And he said unto them, Where is your faith?  And they being afraid
wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this!  for he
commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.
		 -- Luke 8:25
%
And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against
Galilee.
		 -- Luke 8:26
%
And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain
man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in
any house, but in the tombs.
		 -- Luke 8:27
%
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a
loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God
most high?  I beseech thee, torment me not.
		 -- Luke 8:28
%
(For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man.
For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and
in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into
the wilderness.)
		 -- Luke 8:29
%
And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name?	And he said, Legion:
because many devils were entered into him.
		 -- Luke 8:30
%
And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into
the deep.
		 -- Luke 8:31
%
And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain:
and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them.
And he suffered them.
		 -- Luke 8:32
%
Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and
the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.
		 -- Luke 8:33
%
When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told
it in the city and in the country.
		 -- Luke 8:34
%
Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the
man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus,
clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
		 -- Luke 8:35
%
They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of
the devils was healed.
		 -- Luke 8:36
%
Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about
besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear:
and he went up into the ship, and returned back again.
		 -- Luke 8:37
%
Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he
might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,
		 -- Luke 8:38
%
Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto
thee.  And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how
great things Jesus had done unto him.
		 -- Luke 8:39
%
And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly
received him: for they were all waiting for him.
		 -- Luke 8:40
%
And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the
synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he
would come into his house:
		 -- Luke 8:41
%
For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay
a dying.  But as he went the people thronged him.
		 -- Luke 8:42
%
And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all
her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,
		 -- Luke 8:43
%
Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately
her issue of blood stanched.
		 -- Luke 8:44
%
And Jesus said, Who touched me?  When all denied, Peter and they that
were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee,
and sayest thou, Who touched me?
		 -- Luke 8:45
%
And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is
gone out of me.
		 -- Luke 8:46
%
And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and
falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people
for what cause she had touched him and how she was healed immediately.
		 -- Luke 8:47
%
And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made
thee whole; go in peace.
		 -- Luke 8:48
%
While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's
house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
		 -- Luke 8:49
%
But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only,
and she shall be made whole.
		 -- Luke 8:50
%
And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter,
and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.
		 -- Luke 8:51
%
And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead,
but sleepeth.
		 -- Luke 8:52
%
And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
		 -- Luke 8:53
%
And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying,
Maid, arise.
		 -- Luke 8:54
%
And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded
to give her meat.
		 -- Luke 8:55
%
And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should
tell no man what was done.
		 -- Luke 8:56
%
THEN he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and
authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
		 -- Luke 9:1
%
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
		 -- Luke 9:2
%
And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves,
nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
		 -- Luke 9:3
%
And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.
		 -- Luke 9:4
%
And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake
off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
		 -- Luke 9:5
%
And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel,
and healing every where.
		 -- Luke 9:6
%
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was
perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from
the dead;
		 -- Luke 9:7
%
And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the
old prophets was risen again.
		 -- Luke 9:8
%
And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear
such things?  And he desired to see him.
		 -- Luke 9:9
%
And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had
done.  And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place
belonging to the city called Bethsaida.
		 -- Luke 9:10
%
And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them,
and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need
of healing.
		 -- Luke 9:11
%
And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said
unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and
country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a
desert place.
		 -- Luke 9:12
%
But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat.  And they said, We have no
more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat
for all this people.
		 -- Luke 9:13
%
For they were about five thousand men.	And he said to his disciples,
Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
		 -- Luke 9:14
%
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
		 -- Luke 9:15
%
Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to
heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set
before the multitude.
		 -- Luke 9:16
%
And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments
that remained to them twelve baskets.
		 -- Luke 9:17
%
And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him:
and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?
		 -- Luke 9:18
%
They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others
say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.
		 -- Luke 9:19
%
He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am?  Peter answering said,
The Christ of God.
		 -- Luke 9:20
%
And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that
thing;
		 -- Luke 9:21
%
Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the
elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the
third day.
		 -- Luke 9:22
%
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny
himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
		 -- Luke 9:23
%
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose
his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
		 -- Luke 9:24
%
For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose
himself, or be cast away?
		 -- Luke 9:25
%
For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the
Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his
Father's, and of the holy angels.
		 -- Luke 9:26
%
But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not
taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 9:27
%
And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took
Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.
		 -- Luke 9:28
%
And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his
raiment was white and glistering.
		 -- Luke 9:29
%
And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:
		 -- Luke 9:30
%
Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish
at Jerusalem.
		 -- Luke 9:31
%
But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when
they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.
		 -- Luke 9:32
%
And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus,
Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles;
one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what
he said.
		 -- Luke 9:33
%
While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they
feared as they entered into the cloud.
		 -- Luke 9:34
%
And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son:
hear him.
		 -- Luke 9:35
%
And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone.  And they kept it
close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they
had seen.
		 -- Luke 9:36
%
And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from
the hill, much people met him.
		 -- Luke 9:37
%
And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech
thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.
		 -- Luke 9:38
%
And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth
him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.
		 -- Luke 9:39
%
And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not.
		 -- Luke 9:40
%
And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long
shall I be with you, and suffer you?  Bring thy son hither.
		 -- Luke 9:41
%
And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him.
And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered
him again to his father.
		 -- Luke 9:42
%
And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God.  But while they
wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his
disciples,
		 -- Luke 9:43
%
Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be
delivered into the hands of men.
		 -- Luke 9:44
%
But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they
perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.
		 -- Luke 9:45
%
Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
		 -- Luke 9:46
%
And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set
him by him,
		 -- Luke 9:47
%
And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name
receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me:
for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.
		 -- Luke 9:48
%
And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in
thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
		 -- Luke 9:49
%
And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us
is for us.
		 -- Luke 9:50
%
And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received
up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,
		 -- Luke 9:51
%
And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a
village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
		 -- Luke 9:52
%
And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would
go to Jerusalem.
		 -- Luke 9:53
%
And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt
thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them,
even as Elias did?
		 -- Luke 9:54
%
But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of
spirit ye are of.
		 -- Luke 9:55
%
For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them.
And they went to another village.
		 -- Luke 9:56
%
And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said
unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
		 -- Luke 9:57
%
And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have
nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
		 -- Luke 9:58
%
And he said unto another, Follow me.  But he said, Lord, suffer me first
to go and bury my father.
		 -- Luke 9:59
%
Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach
the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 9:60
%
And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go
bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
		 -- Luke 9:61
%
And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough,
and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 9:62
%
AFTER these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them
two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself
would come.
		 -- Luke 10:1
%
Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers
are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send
forth labourers into his harvest.
		 -- Luke 10:2
%
Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
		 -- Luke 10:3
%
Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
		 -- Luke 10:4
%
And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
		 -- Luke 10:5
%
And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not,
it shall turn to you again.
		 -- Luke 10:6
%
And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they
give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire.  Go not from house to house.
		 -- Luke 10:7
%
And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things
as are set before you:
		 -- Luke 10:8
%
And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of
God is come nigh unto you.
		 -- Luke 10:9
%
But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your
ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
		 -- Luke 10:10
%
Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off
against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of
God is come nigh unto you.
		 -- Luke 10:11
%
But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom,
than for that city.
		 -- Luke 10:12
%
Woe unto thee, Chorazin!  woe unto thee, Bethsaida!  for if the mighty
works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you,
they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
		 -- Luke 10:13
%
But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment,
than for you.
		 -- Luke 10:14
%
And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down
to hell.
		 -- Luke 10:15
%
He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me;
and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
		 -- Luke 10:16
%
And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils
are subject unto us through thy name.
		 -- Luke 10:17
%
And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
		 -- Luke 10:18
%
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and
over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
		 -- Luke 10:19
%
Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto
you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
		 -- Luke 10:20
%
In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father,
Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise
and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so
it seemed good in thy sight.
		 -- Luke 10:21
%
All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the
Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to
whom the Son will reveal him.
		 -- Luke 10:22
%
And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are
the eyes which see the things that ye see:
		 -- Luke 10:23
%
For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those
things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things
which ye hear, and have not heard them.
		 -- Luke 10:24
%
And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master,
what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
		 -- Luke 10:25
%
He said unto him, What is written in the law?  how readest thou?
		 -- Luke 10:26
%
And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all
thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
		 -- Luke 10:27
%
And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou
shalt live.
		 -- Luke 10:28
%
But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my
neighbour?
		 -- Luke 10:29
%
And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to
Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment,
and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
		 -- Luke 10:30
%
And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he
saw him, he passed by on the other side.
		 -- Luke 10:31
%
And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him,
and passed by on the other side.
		 -- Luke 10:32
%
But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when
he saw him, he had compassion on him,
		 -- Luke 10:33
%
And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and
set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
		 -- Luke 10:34
%
And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them
to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou
spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
		 -- Luke 10:35
%
Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that
fell among the thieves?
		 -- Luke 10:36
%
And he said, He that shewed mercy on him.  Then said Jesus unto him,
Go, and do thou likewise.
		 -- Luke 10:37
%
Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village:
and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
		 -- Luke 10:38
%
And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and
heard his word.
		 -- Luke 10:39
%
But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said,
Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone?
bid her therefore that she help me.
		 -- Luke 10:40
%
And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful
and troubled about many things:
		 -- Luke 10:41
%
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which
shall not be taken away from her.
		 -- Luke 10:42
%
AND it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when
he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray,
as John also taught his disciples.
		 -- Luke 11:1
%
And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.  Thy kingdom come.  Thy will be done, as in heaven,
so in earth.
		 -- Luke 11:2
%
Give us day by day our daily bread.
		 -- Luke 11:3
%
And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted
to us.	And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.
		 -- Luke 11:4
%
And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go
unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
		 -- Luke 11:5
%
For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing
to set before him?
		 -- Luke 11:6
%
And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is
now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
		 -- Luke 11:7
%
I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his
friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many
as he needeth.
		 -- Luke 11:8
%
And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall
find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
		 -- Luke 11:9
%
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and
to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
		 -- Luke 11:10
%
If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give
him a stone?  or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
		 -- Luke 11:11
%
Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
		 -- Luke 11:12
%
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children:
how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them
that ask him?
		 -- Luke 11:13
%
And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb.  And it came to pass,
when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the people wondered.
		 -- Luke 11:14
%
But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief
of the devils.
		 -- Luke 11:15
%
And others, tempting him, sought of him a sign from heaven.
		 -- Luke 11:16
%
But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided
against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a
house falleth.
		 -- Luke 11:17
%
If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand?
because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub.
		 -- Luke 11:18
%
And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out?
therefore shall they be your judges.
		 -- Luke 11:19
%
But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom
of God is come upon you.
		 -- Luke 11:20
%
When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:
		 -- Luke 11:21
%
But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him,
he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth
his spoils.
		 -- Luke 11:22
%
He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with
me scattereth.
		 -- Luke 11:23
%
When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry
places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my
house whence I came out.
		 -- Luke 11:24
%
And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.
		 -- Luke 11:25
%
Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than
himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that
man is worse than the first.
		 -- Luke 11:26
%
And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the
company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that
bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.
		 -- Luke 11:27
%
But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God,
and keep it.
		 -- Luke 11:28
%
And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say,
This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign
be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.
		 -- Luke 11:29
%
For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of
man be to this generation.
		 -- Luke 11:30
%
The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of
this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts
of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than
Solomon is here.
		 -- Luke 11:31
%
The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation,
and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and,
behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
		 -- Luke 11:32
%
No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place,
neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in
may see the light.
		 -- Luke 11:33
%
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single,
thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy
body also is full of darkness.
		 -- Luke 11:34
%
Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
		 -- Luke 11:35
%
If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the
whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle
doth give thee light.
		 -- Luke 11:36
%
And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him:
and he went in, and sat down to meat.
		 -- Luke 11:37
%
And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed
before dinner.
		 -- Luke 11:38
%
And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside
of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening
and wickedness.
		 -- Luke 11:39
%
Ye fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is
within also?
		 -- Luke 11:40
%
But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things
are clean unto you.
		 -- Luke 11:41
%
But woe unto you, Pharisees!  for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner
of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to
have done, and not to leave the other undone.
		 -- Luke 11:42
%
Woe unto you, Pharisees!  for ye love the uppermost seats in the
synagogues, and greetings in the markets.
		 -- Luke 11:43
%
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  for ye are as graves
which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them.
		 -- Luke 11:44
%
Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying
thou reproachest us also.
		 -- Luke 11:45
%
And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers!  for ye lade men with burdens
grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one
of your fingers.
		 -- Luke 11:46
%
Woe unto you!  for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your
fathers killed them.
		 -- Luke 11:47
%
Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they
indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.
		 -- Luke 11:48
%
Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and
apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:
		 -- Luke 11:49
%
That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation
of the world, may be required of this generation;
		 -- Luke 11:50
%
From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, which perished
between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be
required of this generation.
		 -- Luke 11:51
%
Woe unto you, lawyers!	for ye have taken away the key of knowledge:
ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
		 -- Luke 11:52
%
And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees
began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:
		 -- Luke 11:53
%
Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth,
that they might accuse him.
		 -- Luke 11:54
%
IN the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable
multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began
to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the
Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
		 -- Luke 12:1
%
For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid,
that shall not be known.
		 -- Luke 12:2
%
Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the
light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be
proclaimed upon the housetops.
		 -- Luke 12:3
%
And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body,
and after that have no more that they can do.
		 -- Luke 12:4
%
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he
hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
		 -- Luke 12:5
%
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is
forgotten before God?
		 -- Luke 12:6
%
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.	Fear not
therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
		 -- Luke 12:7
%
Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall
the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:
		 -- Luke 12:8
%
But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels
of God.
		 -- Luke 12:9
%
And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be
forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it
shall not be forgiven.
		 -- Luke 12:10
%
And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and
powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what
ye shall say:
		 -- Luke 12:11
%
For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
		 -- Luke 12:12
%
And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother,
that he divide the inheritance with me.
		 -- Luke 12:13
%
And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
		 -- Luke 12:14
%
And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's
life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
		 -- Luke 12:15
%
And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich
man brought forth plentifully:
		 -- Luke 12:16
%
And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have
no room where to bestow my fruits?
		 -- Luke 12:17
%
And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater;
and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
		 -- Luke 12:18
%
And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many
years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
		 -- Luke 12:19
%
But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required
of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
		 -- Luke 12:20
%
So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
		 -- Luke 12:21
%
And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought
for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall
put on.
		 -- Luke 12:22
%
The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.
		 -- Luke 12:23
%
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have
storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better
than the fowls?
		 -- Luke 12:24
%
And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?
		 -- Luke 12:25
%
If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye
thought for the rest?
		 -- Luke 12:26
%
Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and
yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like
one of these.
		 -- Luke 12:27
%
If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to
morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of
little faith?
		 -- Luke 12:28
%
And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be
ye of doubtful mind.
		 -- Luke 12:29
%
For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your
Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
		 -- Luke 12:30
%
But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be
added unto you.
		 -- Luke 12:31
%
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give
you the kingdom.
		 -- Luke 12:32
%
Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax
not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief
approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
		 -- Luke 12:33
%
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
		 -- Luke 12:34
%
Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;
		 -- Luke 12:35
%
And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will
return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open
unto him immediately.
		 -- Luke 12:36
%
Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find
watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make
them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
		 -- Luke 12:37
%
And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch,
and find them so, blessed are those servants.
		 -- Luke 12:38
%
And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the
thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house
to be broken through.
		 -- Luke 12:39
%
Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when
ye think not.
		 -- Luke 12:40
%
Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us,
or even to all?
		 -- Luke 12:41
%
And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his
lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of
meat in due season?
		 -- Luke 12:42
%
Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
		 -- Luke 12:43
%
Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that
he hath.
		 -- Luke 12:44
%
But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink,
and to be drunken;
		 -- Luke 12:45
%
The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for
him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder,
and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
		 -- Luke 12:46
%
And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself,
neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
		 -- Luke 12:47
%
But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall
be beaten with few stripes.  For unto whomsoever much is given, of him
shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they
will ask the more.

against two, and two against three.

father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the
mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter
in law against her mother in law.

THERE were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans,

He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his
vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

%
Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three
years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down;
why cumbereth it the ground?

%
And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also,

it down.

%
And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that
Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There
are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be
healed, and not on the sabbath day.

%
The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one
of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead
him away to watering?

%
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan
hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the
sabbath day?

And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and
all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like?  and whereunto shall
I resemble it?

Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you
not whence ye are:

%
Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence,
and thou hast taught in our streets.

%
But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from
me, all ye workers of iniquity.

devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall
be perfected.

%
Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following:

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that
are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together,
as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not!

And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it
lawful to heal on the sabbath day?

%
And they held their peace.  And he took him, and healed him, and let
him go;

%
And answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen
into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day?
		 -- Luke 14:5
%
And they could not answer him again to these things.
		 -- Luke 14:6
%
And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked
how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them,
		 -- Luke 14:7
%
When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest
room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;
		 -- Luke 14:8
%
And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place;
and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.
		 -- Luke 14:9
%
But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when
he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher:
then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat
with thee.
		 -- Luke 14:10
%
For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth
himself shall be exalted.
		 -- Luke 14:11
%
Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or
a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen,
nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence
be made thee.
		 -- Luke 14:12
%
But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame,
the blind:
		 -- Luke 14:13
%
And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou
shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
		 -- Luke 14:14
%
And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he
said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 14:15
%
Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:
		 -- Luke 14:16
%
And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden,
Come; for all things are now ready.
		 -- Luke 14:17
%
And they all with one consent began to make excuse.  The first said unto
him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it:
I pray thee have me excused.
		 -- Luke 14:18
%
And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them:
I pray thee have me excused.
		 -- Luke 14:19
%
And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
		 -- Luke 14:20
%
So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things.  Then the master
of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the
streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the
maimed, and the halt, and the blind.
		 -- Luke 14:21
%
And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet
there is room.
		 -- Luke 14:22
%
And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges,
and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
		 -- Luke 14:23
%
For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste
of my supper.
		 -- Luke 14:24
%
And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said
unto them,
		 -- Luke 14:25
%
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also,
he cannot be my disciple.
		 -- Luke 14:26
%
And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be
my disciple.
		 -- Luke 14:27
%
For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first,
and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
		 -- Luke 14:28
%
Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish
it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
		 -- Luke 14:29
%
Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
		 -- Luke 14:30
%
Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down
first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him
that cometh against him with twenty thousand?
		 -- Luke 14:31
%
Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage,
and desireth conditions of peace.
		 -- Luke 14:32
%
So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath,
he cannot be my disciple.
		 -- Luke 14:33
%
Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it
be seasoned?
		 -- Luke 14:34
%
It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast
it out.  He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
		 -- Luke 14:35
%
THEN drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
		 -- Luke 15:1
%
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth
sinners, and eateth with them.
		 -- Luke 15:2
%
And he spake this parable unto them, saying,
		 -- Luke 15:3
%
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth
not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which
is lost, until he find it?
		 -- Luke 15:4
%
And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
		 -- Luke 15:5
%
And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours,
saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which
was lost.
		 -- Luke 15:6
%
I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner
that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need
no repentance.
		 -- Luke 15:7
%
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece,
doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till
she find it?
		 -- Luke 15:8
%
And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours
together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I
had lost.
		 -- Luke 15:9
%
Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of
God over one sinner that repenteth.
		 -- Luke 15:10
%
And he said, A certain man had two sons:
		 -- Luke 15:11
%
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion
of goods that falleth to me.  And he divided unto them his living.
		 -- Luke 15:12
%
And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took
his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with
riotous living.
		 -- Luke 15:13
%
And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land;
and he began to be in want.
		 -- Luke 15:14
%
And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent
him into his fields to feed swine.
		 -- Luke 15:15
%
And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine
did eat: and no man gave unto him.
		 -- Luke 15:16
%
And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my
father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
		 -- Luke 15:17
%
I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have
sinned against heaven, and before thee,
		 -- Luke 15:18
%
And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired
servants.
		 -- Luke 15:19
%
And he arose, and came to his father.  But when he was yet a great way
off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his
neck, and kissed him.
		 -- Luke 15:20
%
And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in
thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
		 -- Luke 15:21
%
But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put
it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
		 -- Luke 15:22
%
And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and
be merry:
		 -- Luke 15:23
%
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.
And they began to be merry.
		 -- Luke 15:24
%
Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the
house, he heard musick and dancing.
		 -- Luke 15:25
%
And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
		 -- Luke 15:26
%
And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed
the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
		 -- Luke 15:27
%
And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out,
and intreated him.
		 -- Luke 15:28
%
And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve
thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou
never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
		 -- Luke 15:29
%
But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living
with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
		 -- Luke 15:30
%
And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have
is thine.
		 -- Luke 15:31
%
It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother
was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
		 -- Luke 15:32
%
AND he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which
had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted
his goods.
		 -- Luke 16:1
%
And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee?
give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
		 -- Luke 16:2
%
Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do?	for my lord
taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
		 -- Luke 16:3
%
I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship,
they may receive me into their houses.
		 -- Luke 16:4
%
So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto
the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
		 -- Luke 16:5
%
And he said, An hundred measures of oil.  And he said unto him, Take
thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
		 -- Luke 16:6
%
Then said he to another, And how much owest thou?  And he said, An
hundred measures of wheat.  And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and
write fourscore.
		 -- Luke 16:7
%
And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely:
for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the
children of light.
		 -- Luke 16:8
%
And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon
of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into
everlasting habitations.
		 -- Luke 16:9
%
He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much:
and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
		 -- Luke 16:10
%
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who
will commit to your trust the true riches?
		 -- Luke 16:11
%
And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who
shall give you that which is your own?
		 -- Luke 16:12
%
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and
love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
		 -- Luke 16:13
%
And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things:
and they derided him.
		 -- Luke 16:14
%
And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men;
but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among
men is abomination in the sight of God.
		 -- Luke 16:15
%
The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom
of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
		 -- Luke 16:16
%
And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the
law to fail.
		 -- Luke 16:17
%
Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth
adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband
committeth adultery.
		 -- Luke 16:18
%
There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen,
and fared sumptuously every day:
		 -- Luke 16:19
%
And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate,
full of sores,
		 -- Luke 16:20
%
And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's
table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
		 -- Luke 16:21
%
And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels
into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
		 -- Luke 16:22
%
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham
afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
		 -- Luke 16:23
%
And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus,
that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue;
for I am tormented in this flame.
		 -- Luke 16:24
%
But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy
good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted,
and thou art tormented.
		 -- Luke 16:25
%
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed:
so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they
pass to us, that would come from thence.
		 -- Luke 16:26
%
Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send
him to my father's house:
		 -- Luke 16:27
%
For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also
come into this place of torment.
		 -- Luke 16:28
%
Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them
hear them.
		 -- Luke 16:29
%
And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead,
they will repent.
		 -- Luke 16:30
%
And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither
will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
		 -- Luke 16:31
%
THEN said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will
come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
		 -- Luke 17:1
%
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and
he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
		 -- Luke 17:2
%
Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him;
and if he repent, forgive him.
		 -- Luke 17:3
%
And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times
in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.
		 -- Luke 17:4
%
And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
		 -- Luke 17:5
%
And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might
say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou
planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
		 -- Luke 17:6
%
But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say
unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down
to meat?
		 -- Luke 17:7
%
And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and
gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward
thou shalt eat and drink?
		 -- Luke 17:8
%
Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded
him?  I trow not.
		 -- Luke 17:9
%
So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are
commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that
which was our duty to do.
		 -- Luke 17:10
%
And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through
the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
		 -- Luke 17:11
%
And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that
were lepers, which stood afar off:
		 -- Luke 17:12
%
And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy
on us.
		 -- Luke 17:13
%
And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the
priests.  And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
		 -- Luke 17:14
%
And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with
a loud voice glorified God,
		 -- Luke 17:15
%
And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was
a Samaritan.
		 -- Luke 17:16
%
And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed?	but where are
the nine?
		 -- Luke 17:17
%
There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this
stranger.
		 -- Luke 17:18
%
And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.
		 -- Luke 17:19
%
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God
should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not
with observation:
		 -- Luke 17:20
%
Neither shall they say, Lo here!  or, lo there!  for, behold, the kingdom
of God is within you.
		 -- Luke 17:21
%
And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire
to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.
		 -- Luke 17:22
%
And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them,
nor follow them.
		 -- Luke 17:23
%
For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven,
shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man
be in his day.
		 -- Luke 17:24
%
But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.
		 -- Luke 17:25
%
And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of
the Son of man.
		 -- Luke 17:26
%
They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage,
until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and
destroyed them all.
		 -- Luke 17:27
%
Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank,
they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
		 -- Luke 17:28
%
But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone
from heaven, and destroyed them all.
		 -- Luke 17:29
%
Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

%
In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the
house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field,
let him likewise not return back.

%
Remember Lot's wife.
		 -- Luke 17:32
%
Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall
lose his life shall preserve it.
		 -- Luke 17:33
%
I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one
shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
		 -- Luke 17:34
%
Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the
other left.

%
Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

%
And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord?  And he said unto them,
Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
		 -- Luke 17:37
%
AND he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to
pray, and not to faint;
		 -- Luke 18:1
%
Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither
regarded man:
		 -- Luke 18:2
%
And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying,
Avenge me of mine adversary.
		 -- Luke 18:3
%
And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself,
Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
		 -- Luke 18:4
%
Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her
continual coming she weary me.
		 -- Luke 18:5
%
And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
		 -- Luke 18:6
%
And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him,
though he bear long with them?
		 -- Luke 18:7
%
I tell you that he will avenge them speedily.  Nevertheless when the
Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
		 -- Luke 18:8
%
And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that
they were righteous, and despised others:
		 -- Luke 18:9
%
Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the
other a publican.
		 -- Luke 18:10
%
The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee,
that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or
even as this publican.
		 -- Luke 18:11
%
I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
		 -- Luke 18:12
%
And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his
eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to
me a sinner.
		 -- Luke 18:13
%
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the
other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that
humbleth himself shall be exalted.
		 -- Luke 18:14
%
And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but
when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
		 -- Luke 18:15
%
But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come
unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 18:16
%
Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God
as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
		 -- Luke 18:17
%
And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to
inherit eternal life?
		 -- Luke 18:18
%
And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good?  none is good, save
one, that is, God.
		 -- Luke 18:19
%
Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill,
Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
		 -- Luke 18:20
%
And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
		 -- Luke 18:21
%
Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou
one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and
thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
		 -- Luke 18:22
%
And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
		 -- Luke 18:23
%
And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall
they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
		 -- Luke 18:24
%
For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a
rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 18:25
%
And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
		 -- Luke 18:26
%
And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible
with God.
		 -- Luke 18:27
%
Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
		 -- Luke 18:28
%
And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that
hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the
kingdom of God's sake,
		 -- Luke 18:29
%
Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the
world to come life everlasting.
		 -- Luke 18:30
%
Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up
to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning
the Son of man shall be accomplished.
		 -- Luke 18:31
%
For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and
spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
		 -- Luke 18:32
%
And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he
shall rise again.
		 -- Luke 18:33
%
And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from
them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.
		 -- Luke 18:34
%
And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain
blind man sat by the way side begging:
		 -- Luke 18:35
%
And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.
		 -- Luke 18:36
%
And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
		 -- Luke 18:37
%
And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
		 -- Luke 18:38
%
And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace:
but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
		 -- Luke 18:39
%
And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he
was come near, he asked him,
		 -- Luke 18:40
%
Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee?  And he said, Lord,
that I may receive my sight.
		 -- Luke 18:41
%
And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
		 -- Luke 18:42
%
And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God:
and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
		 -- Luke 18:43
%
AND Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
		 -- Luke 19:1
%
And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among
the publicans, and he was rich.
		 -- Luke 19:2
%
And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press,
because he was little of stature.
		 -- Luke 19:3
%
And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him:
for he was to pass that way.
		 -- Luke 19:4
%
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said
unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide
at thy house.
		 -- Luke 19:5
%
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
		 -- Luke 19:6
%
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be
guest with a man that is a sinner.
		 -- Luke 19:7
%
And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of
my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man
by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
		 -- Luke 19:8
%
And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house,
forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
		 -- Luke 19:9
%
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
		 -- Luke 19:10
%
And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because
he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of
God should immediately appear.
		 -- Luke 19:11
%
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive
for himself a kingdom, and to return.
		 -- Luke 19:12
%
And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said
unto them, Occupy till I come.
		 -- Luke 19:13
%
But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We
will not have this man to reign over us.
		 -- Luke 19:14
%
And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the
kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom
he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained
by trading.
		 -- Luke 19:15
%
Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
		 -- Luke 19:16
%
And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been
faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
		 -- Luke 19:17
%
And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
		 -- Luke 19:18
%
And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
		 -- Luke 19:19
%
And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have
kept laid up in a napkin:
		 -- Luke 19:20
%
For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that
thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
		 -- Luke 19:21
%
And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou
wicked servant.  Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that
I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
		 -- Luke 19:22
%
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming
I might have required mine own with usury?
		 -- Luke 19:23
%
And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give
it to him that hath ten pounds.
		 -- Luke 19:24
%
(And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
		 -- Luke 19:25
%
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and
from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
		 -- Luke 19:26
%
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them,
bring hither, and slay them before me.
		 -- Luke 19:27
%
And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
		 -- Luke 19:28
%
And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany,
at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
		 -- Luke 19:29
%
Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your
entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him,
and bring him hither.
		 -- Luke 19:30
%
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him?  thus shall ye say unto him,
Because the Lord hath need of him.
		 -- Luke 19:31
%
And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said
unto them.
		 -- Luke 19:32
%
And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them,
Why loose ye the colt?
		 -- Luke 19:33
%
And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
		 -- Luke 19:34
%
And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt,
and they set Jesus thereon.
		 -- Luke 19:35
%
And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
		 -- Luke 19:36
%
And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives,
the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God
with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
		 -- Luke 19:37
%
Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace
in heaven, and glory in the highest.
		 -- Luke 19:38
%
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master,
rebuke thy disciples.
		 -- Luke 19:39
%
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should
hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
		 -- Luke 19:40
%
And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
		 -- Luke 19:41
%
Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the
things which belong unto thy peace!  but now they are hid from thine eyes.
		 -- Luke 19:42
%
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench
about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
		 -- Luke 19:43
%
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee;
and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou
knewest not the time of thy visitation.
		 -- Luke 19:44
%
And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein,
and them that bought;
		 -- Luke 19:45
%
Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but
ye have made it a den of thieves.
		 -- Luke 19:46
%
And he taught daily in the temple.  But the chief priests and the scribes
and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
		 -- Luke 19:47
%
And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very
attentive to hear him.
		 -- Luke 19:48
%
AND it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the people
in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes
came upon him with the elders,
		 -- Luke 20:1
%
And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou
these things?  or who is he that gave thee this authority?
		 -- Luke 20:2
%
And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing;
and answer me:
		 -- Luke 20:3
%
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
		 -- Luke 20:4
%
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven;
he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
		 -- Luke 20:5
%
But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be
persuaded that John was a prophet.
		 -- Luke 20:6
%
And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was.
		 -- Luke 20:7
%
And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do
these things.
		 -- Luke 20:8
%
Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted
a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country
for a long time.
		 -- Luke 20:9
%
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should
give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him,
and sent him away empty.
		 -- Luke 20:10
%
And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated
him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
		 -- Luke 20:11
%
And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
		 -- Luke 20:12
%
Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do?  I will send my
beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
		 -- Luke 20:13
%
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying,
This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
		 -- Luke 20:14
%
So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him.  What therefore
shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
		 -- Luke 20:15
%
He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard
to others.  And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.
		 -- Luke 20:16
%
And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone
which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
		 -- Luke 20:17
%
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever
it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
		 -- Luke 20:18
%
And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands
on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken
this parable against them.
		 -- Luke 20:19
%
And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves
just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might
deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.
		 -- Luke 20:20
%
And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest
rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way
of God truly:
		 -- Luke 20:21
%
Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?
		 -- Luke 20:22
%
But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
		 -- Luke 20:23
%
Shew me a penny.  Whose image and superscription hath it?  They answered
and said, Caesar's.
		 -- Luke 20:24
%
And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be
Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.
		 -- Luke 20:25
%
And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they
marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
		 -- Luke 20:26
%
Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any
resurrection; and they asked him,
		 -- Luke 20:27
%
Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a
wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife,
and raise up seed unto his brother.
		 -- Luke 20:28
%
There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died
without children.
		 -- Luke 20:29
%
And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.
		 -- Luke 20:30
%
And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left
no children, and died.
		 -- Luke 20:31
%
Last of all the woman died also.
		 -- Luke 20:32
%
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she?  for seven had
her to wife.
		 -- Luke 20:33
%
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry,
and are given in marriage:
		 -- Luke 20:34
%
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the
resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
		 -- Luke 20:35
%
Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels;
and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
		 -- Luke 20:36
%
Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he
calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God
of Jacob.
		 -- Luke 20:37
%
For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
		 -- Luke 20:38
%
Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said.
		 -- Luke 20:39
%
And after that they durst not ask him any question at all.
		 -- Luke 20:40
%
And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David's son?
		 -- Luke 20:41
%
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord,
Sit thou on my right hand,
		 -- Luke 20:42
%
Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
		 -- Luke 20:43
%
David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?
		 -- Luke 20:44
%
Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,
		 -- Luke 20:45
%
Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love
greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues,
and the chief rooms at feasts;
		 -- Luke 20:46
%
Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same
shall receive greater damnation.
		 -- Luke 20:47
%
AND he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the
treasury.
		 -- Luke 21:1
%
And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
		 -- Luke 21:2
%
And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast
in more than they all:
		 -- Luke 21:3
%
For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God:
but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
		 -- Luke 21:4
%
And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones
and gifts, he said,
		 -- Luke 21:5
%
As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which
there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be
thrown down.
		 -- Luke 21:6
%
And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be?
and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?
		 -- Luke 21:7
%
And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come
in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not
therefore after them.
		 -- Luke 21:8
%
But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for
these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.
		 -- Luke 21:9
%
Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom
against kingdom:
		 -- Luke 21:10
%
And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and
pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from
heaven.
		 -- Luke 21:11
%
But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute
you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought
before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
		 -- Luke 21:12
%
And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
		 -- Luke 21:13
%
Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye
shall answer:
		 -- Luke 21:14
%
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall
not be able to gainsay nor resist.
		 -- Luke 21:15
%
And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks,
and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
		 -- Luke 21:16
%
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
		 -- Luke 21:17
%
But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
		 -- Luke 21:18
%
In your patience possess ye your souls.
		 -- Luke 21:19
%
And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that
the desolation thereof is nigh.
		 -- Luke 21:20
%
Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them
which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in
the countries enter thereinto.
		 -- Luke 21:21
%
For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written
may be fulfilled.
		 -- Luke 21:22
%
But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in
those days!  for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath
upon this people.
		 -- Luke 21:23
%
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away
captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the
Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
		 -- Luke 21:24
%
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and
the waves roaring;
		 -- Luke 21:25
%
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things
which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
		 -- Luke 21:26
%
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and
great glory.
		 -- Luke 21:27
%
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up
your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
		 -- Luke 21:28
%
And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;
		 -- Luke 21:29
%
When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer
is now nigh at hand.
		 -- Luke 21:30
%
So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the
kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
		 -- Luke 21:31
%
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all
be fulfilled.
		 -- Luke 21:32
%
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
		 -- Luke 21:33
%
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged
with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that
day come upon you unawares.
		 -- Luke 21:34
%
For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the
whole earth.
		 -- Luke 21:35
%
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy
to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before
the Son of man.
		 -- Luke 21:36
%
And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went
out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives.
		 -- Luke 21:37
%
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple,
for to hear him.
		 -- Luke 21:38
%
NOW the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
		 -- Luke 22:1
%
And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for
they feared the people.
		 -- Luke 22:2
%
Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of
the twelve.
		 -- Luke 22:3
%
And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains,
how he might betray him unto them.
		 -- Luke 22:4
%
And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
		 -- Luke 22:5
%
And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the
absence of the multitude.
		 -- Luke 22:6
%
Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
		 -- Luke 22:7
%
And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover,
that we may eat.
		 -- Luke 22:8
%
And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?
		 -- Luke 22:9
%
And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there
shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the
house where he entereth in.
		 -- Luke 22:10
%
And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto
thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with
my disciples?
		 -- Luke 22:11
%
And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
		 -- Luke 22:12
%
And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready
the passover.
		 -- Luke 22:13
%
And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
		 -- Luke 22:14
%
And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover
with you before I suffer:
		 -- Luke 22:15
%
For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled
in the kingdom of God.
		 -- Luke 22:16
%
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide
it among yourselves:
		 -- Luke 22:17
%
For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until
the kingdom of God shall come.
		 -- Luke 22:18
%
And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them,
saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance
of me.
		 -- Luke 22:19
%
Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament
in my blood, which is shed for you.
		 -- Luke 22:20
%
But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.
		 -- Luke 22:21
%
And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that
man by whom he is betrayed!
		 -- Luke 22:22
%
And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that
should do this thing.
		 -- Luke 22:23
%
And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted
the greatest.
		 -- Luke 22:24
%
And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over
them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
		 -- Luke 22:25
%
But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be
as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
		 -- Luke 22:26
%
For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth?
is not he that sitteth at meat?  but I am among you as he that serveth.
		 -- Luke 22:27
%
Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
		 -- Luke 22:28
%
And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;
		 -- Luke 22:29
%
That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones
judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
		 -- Luke 22:30
%
And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you,
that he may sift you as wheat:
		 -- Luke 22:31
%
But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art
converted, strengthen thy brethren.
		 -- Luke 22:32
%
And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison,
and to death.
		 -- Luke 22:33
%
And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day,
before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
		 -- Luke 22:34
%
And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and
shoes, lacked ye any thing?  And they said, Nothing.
		 -- Luke 22:35
%
Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it,
and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his
garment, and buy one.
		 -- Luke 22:36
%
For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished
in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things
concerning me have an end.
		 -- Luke 22:37
%
And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords.  And he said unto them,
It is enough.
		 -- Luke 22:38
%
And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives;
and his disciples also followed him.
		 -- Luke 22:39
%
And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not
into temptation.
		 -- Luke 22:40
%
And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down,
and prayed,
		 -- Luke 22:41
%
Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless
not my will, but thine, be done.
		 -- Luke 22:42
%
And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.
		 -- Luke 22:43
%
And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it
were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
		 -- Luke 22:44
%
And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found
them sleeping for sorrow,
		 -- Luke 22:45
%
And said unto them, Why sleep ye?  rise and pray, lest ye enter into
temptation.
		 -- Luke 22:46
%
And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas,
one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
		 -- Luke 22:47
%
But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
		 -- Luke 22:48
%
When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him,
Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
		 -- Luke 22:49
%
And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his
right ear.
		 -- Luke 22:50
%
And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far.  And he touched his ear,
and healed him.
		 -- Luke 22:51
%
Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and
the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief,
with swords and staves?
		 -- Luke 22:52
%
When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands
against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
		 -- Luke 22:53
%
Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's
house.	And Peter followed afar off.
		 -- Luke 22:54
%
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set
down together, Peter sat down among them.
		 -- Luke 22:55
%
But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked
upon him, and said, This man was also with him.
		 -- Luke 22:56
%
And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
		 -- Luke 22:57
%
And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them.
And Peter said, Man, I am not.
		 -- Luke 22:58
%
And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed,
saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.
		 -- Luke 22:59
%
And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest.  And immediately,
while he yet spake, the cock crew.
		 -- Luke 22:60
%
And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter.  And Peter remembered the
word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou
shalt deny me thrice.
		 -- Luke 22:61
%
And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
		 -- Luke 22:62
%
And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.
		 -- Luke 22:63
%
And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and
asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?
		 -- Luke 22:64
%
And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.
		 -- Luke 22:65
%
And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests
and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,
		 -- Luke 22:66
%
Art thou the Christ?  tell us.	And he said unto them, If I tell you,
ye will not believe:
		 -- Luke 22:67
%
And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.
		 -- Luke 22:68
%
Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.
		 -- Luke 22:69
%
Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God?  And he said unto them,
Ye say that I am.
		 -- Luke 22:70
%
And they said, What need we any further witness?  for we ourselves have
heard of his own mouth.
		 -- Luke 22:71
%
AND the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.
		 -- Luke 23:1
%
And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting
the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he
himself is Christ a King.
		 -- Luke 23:2
%
And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews?  And he
answered him and said, Thou sayest it.
		 -- Luke 23:3
%
Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault
in this man.
		 -- Luke 23:4
%
And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people,
teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
		 -- Luke 23:5
%
When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.
		 -- Luke 23:6
%
And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction,
he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
		 -- Luke 23:7
%
And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous
to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him;
and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
		 -- Luke 23:8
%
Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
		 -- Luke 23:9
%
And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
		 -- Luke 23:10
%
And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and
arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
		 -- Luke 23:11
%
And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before
they were at enmity between themselves.
		 -- Luke 23:12
%
And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers
and the people,
		 -- Luke 23:13
%
Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth
the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found
no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
		 -- Luke 23:14
%
No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of
death is done unto him.
		 -- Luke 23:15
%
I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
		 -- Luke 23:16
%
(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
		 -- Luke 23:17
%
And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release
unto us Barabbas:
		 -- Luke 23:18
%
(Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast
into prison.)
		 -- Luke 23:19
%
Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.
		 -- Luke 23:20
%
But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.
		 -- Luke 23:21
%
And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done?
I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him,
and let him go.
		 -- Luke 23:22
%
And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be
crucified.  And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.
		 -- Luke 23:23
%
And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
		 -- Luke 23:24
%
And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into
prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
		 -- Luke 23:25
%
And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian,
coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might
bear it after Jesus.
		 -- Luke 23:26
%
And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which
also bewailed and lamented him.
		 -- Luke 23:27
%
But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for
me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
		 -- Luke 23:28
%
For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed
are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never
gave suck.
		 -- Luke 23:29
%
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the
hills, Cover us.
		 -- Luke 23:30
%
For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in
the dry?
		 -- Luke 23:31
%
And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put
to death.
		 -- Luke 23:32
%
And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there
they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the
other on the left.
		 -- Luke 23:33
%
Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
		 -- Luke 23:34
%
And the people stood beholding.  And the rulers also with them derided
him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ,
the chosen of God.
		 -- Luke 23:35
%
And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
		 -- Luke 23:36
%
And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
		 -- Luke 23:37
%
And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek,
and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
		 -- Luke 23:38
%
And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying,
If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
		 -- Luke 23:39
%
But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God,
seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
		 -- Luke 23:40
%
And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but
this man hath done nothing amiss.
		 -- Luke 23:41
%
And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy
kingdom.
		 -- Luke 23:42
%
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be
with me in paradise.
		 -- Luke 23:43
%
And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the
earth until the ninth hour.
		 -- Luke 23:44
%
And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the
midst.
		 -- Luke 23:45
%
And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy
hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
		 -- Luke 23:46
%
Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying,
Certainly this was a righteous man.
		 -- Luke 23:47
%
And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things
which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
		 -- Luke 23:48
%
And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee,
stood afar off, beholding these things.
		 -- Luke 23:49
%
And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a
good man, and a just:
		 -- Luke 23:50
%
(The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of
Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom
of God.
		 -- Luke 23:51
%
This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
		 -- Luke 23:52
%
And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre
that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.
		 -- Luke 23:53
%
And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
		 -- Luke 23:54
%
And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after,
and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.
		 -- Luke 23:55
%
And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the
sabbath day according to the commandment.
		 -- Luke 23:56
%
NOW upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they
came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared,
and certain others with them.
		 -- Luke 24:1
%
And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
		 -- Luke 24:2
%
And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
		 -- Luke 24:3
%
And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold,
two men stood by them in shining garments:
		 -- Luke 24:4
%
And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they
said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
		 -- Luke 24:5
%
He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he
was yet in Galilee,
		 -- Luke 24:6
%
Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men,
and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
		 -- Luke 24:7
%
And they remembered his words,
		 -- Luke 24:8
%
And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the
eleven, and to all the rest.
		 -- Luke 24:9
%
It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other
women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
		 -- Luke 24:10
%
And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
		 -- Luke 24:11
%
Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he
beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in
himself at that which was come to pass.
		 -- Luke 24:12
%
And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus,
which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
		 -- Luke 24:13
%
And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
		 -- Luke 24:14
%
And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned,
Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
		 -- Luke 24:15
%
But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
		 -- Luke 24:16
%
And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye
have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
		 -- Luke 24:17
%
And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him,
Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things
which are come to pass therein these days?
		 -- Luke 24:18
%
And he said unto them, What things?  And they said unto him, Concerning
Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before
God and all the people:
		 -- Luke 24:19
%
And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned
to death, and have crucified him.
		 -- Luke 24:20
%
But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel:
and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
		 -- Luke 24:21
%
Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which
were early at the sepulchre;
		 -- Luke 24:22
%
And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also
seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
		 -- Luke 24:23
%
And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found
it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
		 -- Luke 24:24
%
Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that
the prophets have spoken:
		 -- Luke 24:25
%
Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into
his glory?
		 -- Luke 24:26
%
And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in
all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
		 -- Luke 24:27
%
And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as
though he would have gone further.
		 -- Luke 24:28
%
But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening,
and the day is far spent.  And he went in to tarry with them.
		 -- Luke 24:29
%
And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and
blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
		 -- Luke 24:30
%
And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of
their sight.
		 -- Luke 24:31
%
And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while
he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
		 -- Luke 24:32
%
And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found
the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
		 -- Luke 24:33
%
Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
		 -- Luke 24:34
%
And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of
them in breaking of bread.
		 -- Luke 24:35
%
And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and
saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
		 -- Luke 24:36
%
But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen
a spirit.
		 -- Luke 24:37
%
And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled?  and why do thoughts arise
in your hearts?
		 -- Luke 24:38
%
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see;
for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
		 -- Luke 24:39
%
And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.
		 -- Luke 24:40
%
And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them,
Have ye here any meat?
		 -- Luke 24:41
%
And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.
		 -- Luke 24:42
%
And he took it, and did eat before them.
		 -- Luke 24:43
%
And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I
was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in
the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
		 -- Luke 24:44
%
Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the
scriptures,
		 -- Luke 24:45
%
And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to
suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
		 -- Luke 24:46
%
And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name
among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
		 -- Luke 24:47
%
And ye are witnesses of these things.
		 -- Luke 24:48
%
And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in
the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
		 -- Luke 24:49
%
And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands,
and blessed them.
		 -- Luke 24:50
%
And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them,
and carried up into heaven.
		 -- Luke 24:51
%
And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:
		 -- Luke 24:52
%
And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God.	Amen.
		 -- Luke 24:53
%
IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God.
		 -- John 1:1
%
The same was in the beginning with God.
		 -- John 1:2
%
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that
was made.
		 -- John 1:3
%
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
		 -- John 1:4
%
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
		 -- John 1:5
%
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
		 -- John 1:6
%
The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men
through him might believe.
		 -- John 1:7
%
He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
		 -- John 1:8
%
That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into
the world.
		 -- John 1:9
%
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew
him not.
		 -- John 1:10
%
He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
		 -- John 1:11
%
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons
of God, even to them that believe on his name:
		 -- John 1:12
%
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the
will of man, but of God.
		 -- John 1:13
%
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory,
the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
		 -- John 1:14
%
John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake,
He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
		 -- John 1:15
%
And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
		 -- John 1:16
%
For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
		 -- John 1:17
%
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in
the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
		 -- John 1:18
%
And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites
from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
		 -- John 1:19
%
And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.
		 -- John 1:20
%
And they asked him, What then?	Art thou Elias?  And he saith, I am not.
Art thou that prophet?	And he answered, No.
		 -- John 1:21
%
Then said they unto him, Who art thou?	that we may give an answer to
them that sent us.  What sayest thou of thyself?
		 -- John 1:22
%
He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight
the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.
		 -- John 1:23
%
And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
		 -- John 1:24
%
And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou
be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?
		 -- John 1:25
%
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth
one among you, whom ye know not;
		 -- John 1:26
%
He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's
latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
		 -- John 1:27
%
These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was
baptizing.
		 -- John 1:28
%
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the
Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
		 -- John 1:29
%
This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred
before me: for he was before me.
		 -- John 1:30
%
And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel,
therefore am I come baptizing with water.
		 -- John 1:31
%
And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven
like a dove, and it abode upon him.
		 -- John 1:32
%
And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the
same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending,
and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
		 -- John 1:33
%
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
		 -- John 1:34
%
Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;
		 -- John 1:35
%
And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
		 -- John 1:36
%
And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
		 -- John 1:37
%
Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What
seek ye?  They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted,
Master,) where dwellest thou?
		 -- John 1:38
%
He saith unto them, Come and see.  They came and saw where he dwelt,
and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.
		 -- John 1:39
%
One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother.
		 -- John 1:40
%
He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have
found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
		 -- John 1:41
%
And he brought him to Jesus.  And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou
art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by
interpretation, A stone.
		 -- John 1:42
%
The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip,
and saith unto him, Follow me.
		 -- John 1:43
%
Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
		 -- John 1:44
%
Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of
whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth,
the son of Joseph.
		 -- John 1:45
%
And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of
Nazareth?  Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
		 -- John 1:46
%
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite
indeed, in whom is no guile!
		 -- John 1:47
%
Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me?  Jesus answered and
said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the
fig tree, I saw thee.
		 -- John 1:48
%
Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God;
thou art the King of Israel.
		 -- John 1:49
%
Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee
under the fig tree, believest thou?  thou shalt see greater things
than these.
		 -- John 1:50
%
And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye
shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending
upon the Son of man.
		 -- John 1:51
%
AND the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother
of Jesus was there:
		 -- John 2:1
%
And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
		 -- John 2:2
%
And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have
no wine.
		 -- John 2:3
%
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee?  mine hour is
not yet come.
		 -- John 2:4
%
His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
		 -- John 2:5
%
And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of
the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
		 -- John 2:6
%
Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water.  And they filled
them up to the brim.
		 -- John 2:7
%
And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of
the feast.  And they bare it.
		 -- John 2:8
%
When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine,
and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;)
the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
		 -- John 2:9
%
And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine;
and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast
kept the good wine until now.
		 -- John 2:10
%
This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested
forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
		 -- John 2:11
%
After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his
brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.
		 -- John 2:12
%
And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
		 -- John 2:13
%
And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and
the changers of money sitting:
		 -- John 2:14
%
And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of
the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers'
money, and overthrew the tables;
		 -- John 2:15
%
And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not
my Father's house an house of merchandise.
		 -- John 2:16
%
And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine
house hath eaten me up.
		 -- John 2:17
%
Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us,
seeing that thou doest these things?
		 -- John 2:18
%
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three
days I will raise it up.
		 -- John 2:19
%
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building,
and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
		 -- John 2:20
%
But he spake of the temple of his body.
		 -- John 2:21
%
When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered
that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and
the word which Jesus had said.
		 -- John 2:22
%
Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many
believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.
		 -- John 2:23
%
But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,
		 -- John 2:24
%
And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was
in man.
		 -- John 2:25
%
THERE was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
		 -- John 3:1
%
The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that
thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that
thou doest, except God be with him.
		 -- John 3:2
%
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
		 -- John 3:3
%
Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old?  can he
enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
		 -- John 3:4
%
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born
of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
		 -- John 3:5
%
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the
Spirit is spirit.
		 -- John 3:6
%
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
		 -- John 3:7
%
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof,
but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every
one that is born of the Spirit.
		 -- John 3:8
%
Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
		 -- John 3:9
%
Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and
knowest not these things?
		 -- John 3:10
%
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify
that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
		 -- John 3:11
%
If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye
believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
		 -- John 3:12
%
And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven,
even the Son of man which is in heaven.
		 -- John 3:13
%
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the
Son of man be lifted up:
		 -- John 3:14
%
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
		 -- John 3:15
%
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
		 -- John 3:16
%
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that
the world through him might be saved.
		 -- John 3:17
%
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is
condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God.
		 -- John 3:18
%
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and
men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
		 -- John 3:19
%
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the
light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
		 -- John 3:20
%
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made
manifest, that they are wrought in God.
		 -- John 3:21
%
After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea;
and there he tarried with them, and baptized.
		 -- John 3:22
%
And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was
much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
		 -- John 3:23
%
For John was not yet cast into prison.
		 -- John 3:24
%
Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the
Jews about purifying.
		 -- John 3:25
%
And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee
beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth,
and all men come to him.
		 -- John 3:26
%
John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given
him from heaven.
		 -- John 3:27
%
Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but
that I am sent before him.
		 -- John 3:28
%
He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the
bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because
of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
		 -- John 3:29
%
He must increase, but I must decrease.
		 -- John 3:30
%
He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is
earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is
above all.
		 -- John 3:31
%
And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth
his testimony.
		 -- John 3:32
%
He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
		 -- John 3:33
%
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not
the Spirit by measure unto him.
		 -- John 3:34
%
The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
		 -- John 3:35
%
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth
not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
		 -- John 3:36
%
WHEN therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made
and baptized more disciples than John,
		 -- John 4:1
%
(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
		 -- John 4:2
%
He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
		 -- John 4:3
%
And he must needs go through Samaria.
		 -- John 4:4
%
Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to
the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
		 -- John 4:5
%
Now Jacob's well was there.  Jesus therefore, being wearied with his
journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
		 -- John 4:6
%
There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her,
Give me to drink.
		 -- John 4:7
%
(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
		 -- John 4:8
%
Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being
a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria?  for the Jews
have no dealings with the Samaritans.
		 -- John 4:9
%
Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and
who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked
of him, and he would have given thee living water.
		 -- John 4:10
%
The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the
well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
		 -- John 4:11
%
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and
drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
		 -- John 4:12
%
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall
thirst again:
		 -- John 4:13
%
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never
thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of
water springing up into everlasting life.
		 -- John 4:14
%
The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not,
neither come hither to draw.
		 -- John 4:15
%
Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
		 -- John 4:16
%
The woman answered and said, I have no husband.  Jesus said unto her,
Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
		 -- John 4:17
%
For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy
husband: in that saidst thou truly.
		 -- John 4:18
%
The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
		 -- John 4:19
%
Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem
is the place where men ought to worship.
		 -- John 4:20
%
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall
neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
		 -- John 4:21
%
Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is
of the Jews.
		 -- John 4:22
%
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship
the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to
worship him.
		 -- John 4:23
%
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit
and in truth.
		 -- John 4:24
%
The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called
Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
		 -- John 4:25
%
Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
		 -- John 4:26
%
And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the
woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou?  or, Why talkest thou with her?
		 -- John 4:27
%
The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and
saith to the men,
		 -- John 4:28
%
Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this
the Christ?
		 -- John 4:29
%
Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
		 -- John 4:30
%
In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
		 -- John 4:31
%
But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
		 -- John 4:32
%
Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him
ought to eat?
		 -- John 4:33
%
Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me,
and to finish his work.
		 -- John 4:34
%
Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest?  behold,
I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are
white already to harvest.
		 -- John 4:35
%
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life
eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice
together.
		 -- John 4:36
%
And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
		 -- John 4:37
%
I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured,
and ye are entered into their labours.
		 -- John 4:38
%
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying
of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
		 -- John 4:39
%
So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he
would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
		 -- John 4:40
%
And many more believed because of his own word;
		 -- John 4:41
%
And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for
we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ,
the Saviour of the world.
		 -- John 4:42
%
Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
		 -- John 4:43
%
For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own
country.
		 -- John 4:44
%
Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having
seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also
went unto the feast.
		 -- John 4:45
%
So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine.
And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
		 -- John 4:46
%
When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went
unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son:
for he was at the point of death.
		 -- John 4:47
%
Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will
not believe.
		 -- John 4:48
%
The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
		 -- John 4:49
%
Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth.  And the man believed
the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
		 -- John 4:50
%
And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying,
Thy son liveth.
		 -- John 4:51
%
Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend.  And they said
unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
		 -- John 4:52
%
So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said
unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
		 -- John 4:53
%
This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out
of Judaea into Galilee.
		 -- John 4:54
%
AFTER this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
		 -- John 5:1
%
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called
in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
		 -- John 5:2
%
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered,
waiting for the moving of the water.
		 -- John 5:3
%
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled
the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped
in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
		 -- John 5:4
%
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight
years.
		 -- John 5:5
%
When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in
that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
		 -- John 5:6
%
The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water
is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another
steppeth down before me.
		 -- John 5:7
%
Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
		 -- John 5:8
%
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked:
and on the same day was the sabbath.
		 -- John 5:9
%
The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day:
it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
		 -- John 5:10
%
He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up
thy bed, and walk.
		 -- John 5:11
%
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy
bed, and walk?
		 -- John 5:12
%
And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed
himself away, a multitude being in that place.
		 -- John 5:13
%
Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold,
thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
		 -- John 5:14
%
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made
him whole.
		 -- John 5:15
%
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him,
because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
		 -- John 5:16
%
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
		 -- John 5:17
%
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only
had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making
himself equal with God.
		 -- John 5:18
%
Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do:
for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
		 -- John 5:19
%
For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself
doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
		 -- John 5:20
%
For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the
Son quickeneth whom he will.
		 -- John 5:21
%
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto
the Son:
		 -- John 5:22
%
That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father.
He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath
sent him.
		 -- John 5:23
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth
on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into
condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
		 -- John 5:24
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when
the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear
shall live.
		 -- John 5:25
%
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to
have life in himself;
		 -- John 5:26
%
And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is
the Son of man.
		 -- John 5:27
%
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are
in the graves shall hear his voice,
		 -- John 5:28
%
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection
of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
		 -- John 5:29
%
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment
is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father
which hath sent me.
		 -- John 5:30
%
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
		 -- John 5:31
%
There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness
which he witnesseth of me is true.
		 -- John 5:32
%
Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
		 -- John 5:33
%
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye
might be saved.
		 -- John 5:34
%
He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season
to rejoice in his light.
		 -- John 5:35
%
But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the
Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness
of me, that the Father hath sent me.
		 -- John 5:36
%
And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me.
Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
		 -- John 5:37
%
And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye
believe not.
		 -- John 5:38
%
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and
they are they which testify of me.
		 -- John 5:39
%
And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
		 -- John 5:40
%
I receive not honour from men.
		 -- John 5:41
%
But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
		 -- John 5:42
%
I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall
come in his own name, him ye will receive.
		 -- John 5:43
%
How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not
the honour that cometh from God only?
		 -- John 5:44
%
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that
accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
		 -- John 5:45
%
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
		 -- John 5:46
%
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
		 -- John 5:47
%
AFTER these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea
of Tiberias.
		 -- John 6:1
%
And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which
he did on them that were diseased.
		 -- John 6:2
%
And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
		 -- John 6:3
%
And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
		 -- John 6:4
%
When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him,
he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
		 -- John 6:5
%
And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
		 -- John 6:6
%
Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient
for them, that every one of them may take a little.
		 -- John 6:7
%
One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,
		 -- John 6:8
%
There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes:
but what are they among so many?
		 -- John 6:9
%
And Jesus said, Make the men sit down.	Now there was much grass in
the place.  So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
		 -- John 6:10
%
And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed
to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and
likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
		 -- John 6:11
%
When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments
that remain, that nothing be lost.
		 -- John 6:12
%
Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with
the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above
unto them that had eaten.
		 -- John 6:13
%
Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said,
This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
		 -- John 6:14
%
When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force,
to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
		 -- John 6:15
%
And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
		 -- John 6:16
%
And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum.  And it
was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
		 -- John 6:17
%
And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
		 -- John 6:18
%
So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they
see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they
were afraid.
		 -- John 6:19
%
But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
		 -- John 6:20
%
Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship
was at the land whither they went.
		 -- John 6:21
%
The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the
sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto
his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples
into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
		 -- John 6:22
%
(Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where
they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
		 -- John 6:23
%
When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his
disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking
for Jesus.
		 -- John 6:24
%
And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto
him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
		 -- John 6:25
%
Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me,
not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves,
and were filled.
		 -- John 6:26
%
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth
unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for
him hath God the Father sealed.
		 -- John 6:27
%
Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works
of God?
		 -- John 6:28
%
Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye
believe on him whom he hath sent.
		 -- John 6:29
%
They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may
see, and believe thee?	what dost thou work?
		 -- John 6:30
%
Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them
bread from heaven to eat.
		 -- John 6:31
%
Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave
you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread
from heaven.
		 -- John 6:32
%
For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth
life unto the world.
		 -- John 6:33
%
Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
		 -- John 6:34
%
And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me
shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
		 -- John 6:35
%
But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
		 -- John 6:36
%
All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to
me I will in no wise cast out.
		 -- John 6:37
%
For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of
him that sent me.
		 -- John 6:38
%
And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he
hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at
the last day.
		 -- John 6:39
%
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the
Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise
him up at the last day.
		 -- John 6:40
%
The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which
came down from heaven.
		 -- John 6:41
%
And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and
mother we know?  how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
		 -- John 6:42
%
Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
		 -- John 6:43
%
No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him:
and I will raise him up at the last day.
		 -- John 6:44
%
It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God.
Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father,
cometh unto me.
		 -- John 6:45
%
Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath
seen the Father.
		 -- John 6:46
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting
life.
		 -- John 6:47
%
I am that bread of life.
		 -- John 6:48
%
Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
		 -- John 6:49
%
This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat
thereof, and not die.
		 -- John 6:50
%
I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of
this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is
my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
		 -- John 6:51
%
The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man
give us his flesh to eat?
		 -- John 6:52
%
Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat
the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
		 -- John 6:53
%
Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I
will raise him up at the last day.
		 -- John 6:54
%
For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
		 -- John 6:55
%
He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I
in him.
		 -- John 6:56
%
As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that
eateth me, even he shall live by me.
		 -- John 6:57
%
This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did
eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
		 -- John 6:58
%
These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
		 -- John 6:59
%
Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This
is an hard saying; who can hear it?
		 -- John 6:60
%
When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said
unto them, Doth this offend you?
		 -- John 6:61
%
What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
		 -- John 6:62
%
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words
that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
		 -- John 6:63
%
But there are some of you that believe not.  For Jesus knew from the
beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
		 -- John 6:64
%
And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me,
except it were given unto him of my Father.
		 -- John 6:65
%
From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more
with him.
		 -- John 6:66
%
Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
		 -- John 6:67
%
Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go?  thou hast
the words of eternal life.
		 -- John 6:68
%
And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the
living God.
		 -- John 6:69
%
Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is
a devil?
		 -- John 6:70
%
He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should
betray him, being one of the twelve.
		 -- John 6:71
%
AFTER these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in
Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
		 -- John 7:1
%
Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
		 -- John 7:2
%
His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea,
that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.
		 -- John 7:3
%
For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh
to be known openly.  If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.
		 -- John 7:4
%
For neither did his brethren believe in him.
		 -- John 7:5
%
Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is
alway ready.
		 -- John 7:6
%
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it,
that the works thereof are evil.
		 -- John 7:7
%
Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time
is not yet full come.
		 -- John 7:8
%
When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.
		 -- John 7:9
%
But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast,
not openly, but as it were in secret.
		 -- John 7:10
%
Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
		 -- John 7:11
%
And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some
said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.
		 -- John 7:12
%
Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
		 -- John 7:13
%
Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple,
and taught.
		 -- John 7:14
%
And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having
never learned?
		 -- John 7:15
%
Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that
sent me.
		 -- John 7:16
%
If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it
be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
		 -- John 7:17
%
He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his
glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
		 -- John 7:18
%
Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?
Why go ye about to kill me?
		 -- John 7:19
%
The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to
kill thee?
		 -- John 7:20
%
Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all
marvel.
		 -- John 7:21
%
Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses,
but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.
		 -- John 7:22
%
If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses
should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man
every whit whole on the sabbath day?
		 -- John 7:23
%
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
		 -- John 7:24
%
Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek
to kill?
		 -- John 7:25
%
But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him.  Do the
rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
		 -- John 7:26
%
Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man
knoweth whence he is.
		 -- John 7:27
%
Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me,
and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent
me is true, whom ye know not.
		 -- John 7:28
%
But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
		 -- John 7:29
%
Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his
hour was not yet come.
		 -- John 7:30
%
And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh,
will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?
		 -- John 7:31
%
The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him;
and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.
		 -- John 7:32
%
Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then
I go unto him that sent me.
		 -- John 7:33
%
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye
cannot come.
		 -- John 7:34
%
Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall
not find him?  will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and
teach the Gentiles?
		 -- John 7:35
%
What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall
not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?
		 -- John 7:36
%
In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried,
saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
		 -- John 7:37
%
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly
shall flow rivers of living water.
		 -- John 7:38
%
(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should
receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was
not yet glorified.)
		 -- John 7:39
%
Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a
truth this is the Prophet.
		 -- John 7:40
%
Others said, This is the Christ.  But some said, Shall Christ come out
of Galilee?
		 -- John 7:41
%
Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David,
and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
		 -- John 7:42
%
So there was a division among the people because of him.
		 -- John 7:43
%
And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.
		 -- John 7:44
%
Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said
unto them, Why have ye not brought him?
		 -- John 7:45
%
The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.
		 -- John 7:46
%
Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?
		 -- John 7:47
%
Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
		 -- John 7:48
%
But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.
		 -- John 7:49
%
Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one
of them,)
		 -- John 7:50
%
Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?
		 -- John 7:51
%
They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee?  Search,
and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
		 -- John 7:52
%
And every man went unto his own house.
		 -- John 7:53
%
JESUS went unto the mount of Olives.
		 -- John 8:1
%
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the
people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
		 -- John 8:2
%
And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery;
and when they had set her in the midst,
		 -- John 8:3
%
They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the
very act.
		 -- John 8:4
%
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what
sayest thou?
		 -- John 8:5
%
This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him.
But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as
though he heard them not.
		 -- John 8:6
%
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto
them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
		 -- John 8:7
%
And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
		 -- John 8:8
%
And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went
out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus
was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
		 -- John 8:9
%
When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto
her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
		 -- John 8:10
%
She said, No man, Lord.  And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn
thee: go, and sin no more.
		 -- John 8:11
%
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the
light of life.
		 -- John 8:12
%
The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself;
thy record is not true.
		 -- John 8:13
%
Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself,
yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go;
but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
		 -- John 8:14
%
Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
		 -- John 8:15
%
And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and
the Father that sent me.
		 -- John 8:16
%
It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
		 -- John 8:17
%
I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth
witness of me.
		 -- John 8:18
%
Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father?  Jesus answered, Ye neither
know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my
Father also.
		 -- John 8:19
%
These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple:
and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
		 -- John 8:20
%
Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me,
and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.
		 -- John 8:21
%
Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself?  because he saith, Whither I
go, ye cannot come.
		 -- John 8:22
%
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of
this world; I am not of this world.
		 -- John 8:23
%
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye
believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
		 -- John 8:24
%
Then said they unto him, Who art thou?	And Jesus saith unto them,
Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
		 -- John 8:25
%
I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is
true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
		 -- John 8:26
%
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
		 -- John 8:27
%
Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then
shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my
Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
		 -- John 8:28
%
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone;
for I do always those things that please him.
		 -- John 8:29
%
As he spake these words, many believed on him.
		 -- John 8:30
%
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in
my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
		 -- John 8:31
%
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
		 -- John 8:32
%
They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to
any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
		 -- John 8:33
%
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth
sin is the servant of sin.
		 -- John 8:34
%
And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth
ever.
		 -- John 8:35
%
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
		 -- John 8:36
%
I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my
word hath no place in you.
		 -- John 8:37
%
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye
have seen with your father.
		 -- John 8:38
%
They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father.  Jesus saith unto
them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
		 -- John 8:39
%
But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which
I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
		 -- John 8:40
%
Ye do the deeds of your father.  Then said they to him, We be not born
of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
		 -- John 8:41
%
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for
I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he
sent me.
		 -- John 8:42
%
Why do ye not understand my speech?  even because ye cannot hear my word.
		 -- John 8:43
%
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.
He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because
there is no truth in him.  When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own:
for he is a liar, and the father of it.
		 -- John 8:44
%
And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
		 -- John 8:45
%
Which of you convinceth me of sin?  And if I say the truth, why do ye
not believe me?
		 -- John 8:46
%
He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not,
because ye are not of God.
		 -- John 8:47
%
Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou
art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
		 -- John 8:48
%
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do
dishonour me.
		 -- John 8:49
%
And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
		 -- John 8:50
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never
see death.
		 -- John 8:51
%
Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil.
Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my
saying, he shall never taste of death.
		 -- John 8:52
%
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead?  and the prophets
are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
		 -- John 8:53
%
Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father
that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
		 -- John 8:54
%
Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him
not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
		 -- John 8:55
%
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
		 -- John 8:56
%
Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast
thou seen Abraham?
		 -- John 8:57
%
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was,
I am.
		 -- John 8:58
%
Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went
out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
		 -- John 8:59
%
AND as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
		 -- John 9:1
%
And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man,
or his parents, that he was born blind?
		 -- John 9:2
%
Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that
the works of God should be made manifest in him.
		 -- John 9:3
%
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night
cometh, when no man can work.
		 -- John 9:4
%
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
		 -- John 9:5
%
When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the
spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
		 -- John 9:6
%
And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by
interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and
came seeing.
		 -- John 9:7
%
The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he
was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
		 -- John 9:8
%
Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
		 -- John 9:9
%
Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
		 -- John 9:10
%
He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed
mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I
went and washed, and I received sight.
		 -- John 9:11
%
Then said they unto him, Where is he?  He said, I know not.
		 -- John 9:12
%
They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
		 -- John 9:13
%
And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
		 -- John 9:14
%
Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight.
He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
		 -- John 9:15
%
Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because
he keepeth not the sabbath day.  Others said, How can a man that is a
sinner do such miracles?  And there was a division among them.
		 -- John 9:16
%
They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath
opened thine eyes?  He said, He is a prophet.
		 -- John 9:17
%
But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind,
and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had
received his sight.
		 -- John 9:18
%
And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind?
how then doth he now see?
		 -- John 9:19
%
His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and
that he was born blind:
		 -- John 9:20
%
But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes,
we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
		 -- John 9:21
%
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the
Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ,
he should be put out of the synagogue.
		 -- John 9:22
%
Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
		 -- John 9:23
%
Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give
God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
		 -- John 9:24
%
He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one
thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
		 -- John 9:25
%
Then said they to him again, What did he to thee?  how opened he thine
eyes?
		 -- John 9:26
%
He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore
would ye hear it again?  will ye also be his disciples?
		 -- John 9:27
%
Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses'
disciples.
		 -- John 9:28
%
We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from
whence he is.
		 -- John 9:29
%
The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing,
that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.
		 -- John 9:30
%
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper
of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
		 -- John 9:31
%
Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of
one that was born blind.
		 -- John 9:32
%
If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
		 -- John 9:33
%
They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins,
and dost thou teach us?  And they cast him out.
		 -- John 9:34
%
Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him,
he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
		 -- John 9:35
%
He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?
		 -- John 9:36
%
And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that
talketh with thee.
		 -- John 9:37
%
And he said, Lord, I believe.  And he worshipped him.
		 -- John 9:38
%
And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which
see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
		 -- John 9:39
%
And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and
said unto him, Are we blind also?
		 -- John 9:40
%
Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now
ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
		 -- John 9:41
%
VERILY, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into
the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and
a robber.
		 -- John 10:1
%
But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
		 -- John 10:2
%
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth
his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
		 -- John 10:3
%
And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the
sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
		 -- John 10:4
%
And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they
know not the voice of strangers.
		 -- John 10:5
%
This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things
they were which he spake unto them.
		 -- John 10:6
%
Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am
the door of the sheep.
		 -- John 10:7
%
All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did
not hear them.
		 -- John 10:8
%
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall
go in and out, and find pasture.
		 -- John 10:9
%
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy:
I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly.
		 -- John 10:10
%
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
		 -- John 10:11
%
But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep
are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth:
and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
		 -- John 10:12
%
The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for
the sheep.
		 -- John 10:13
%
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
		 -- John 10:14
%
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my
life for the sheep.
		 -- John 10:15
%
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must
bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and
one shepherd.
		 -- John 10:16
%
Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I
might take it again.
		 -- John 10:17
%
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself.	I have power to
lay it down, and I have power to take it again.  This commandment have
I received of my Father.
		 -- John 10:18
%
There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
		 -- John 10:19
%
And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
		 -- John 10:20
%
Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil.	Can a
devil open the eyes of the blind?
		 -- John 10:21
%
And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
		 -- John 10:22
%
And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
		 -- John 10:23
%
Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost
thou make us to doubt?	If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
		 -- John 10:24
%
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I
do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.
		 -- John 10:25
%
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
		 -- John 10:26
%
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
		 -- John 10:27
%
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither
shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
		 -- John 10:28
%
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able
to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
		 -- John 10:29
%
I and my Father are one.
		 -- John 10:30
%
Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
		 -- John 10:31
%
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father;
for which of those works do ye stone me?
		 -- John 10:32
%
The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but
for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
		 -- John 10:33
%
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
		 -- John 10:34
%
If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture
cannot be broken;
		 -- John 10:35
%
Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world,
Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
		 -- John 10:36
%
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
		 -- John 10:37
%
But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may
know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
		 -- John 10:38
%
Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,
		 -- John 10:39
%
And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first
baptized; and there he abode.
		 -- John 10:40
%
And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things
that John spake of this man were true.
		 -- John 10:41
%
And many believed on him there.
		 -- John 10:42
%
NOW a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary
and her sister Martha.
		 -- John 11:1
%
(It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his
feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
		 -- John 11:2
%
Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou
lovest is sick.
		 -- John 11:3
%
When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but
for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
		 -- John 11:4
%
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
		 -- John 11:5
%
When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still
in the same place where he was.
		 -- John 11:6
%
Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
		 -- John 11:7
%
His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee;
and goest thou thither again?
		 -- John 11:8
%
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day?	If any man walk
in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
		 -- John 11:9
%
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light
in him.
		 -- John 11:10
%
These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend
Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
		 -- John 11:11
%
Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
		 -- John 11:12
%
Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken
of taking of rest in sleep.
		 -- John 11:13
%
Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
		 -- John 11:14
%
And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may
believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
		 -- John 11:15
%
Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples,
Let us also go, that we may die with him.
		 -- John 11:16
%
Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days
already.
		 -- John 11:17
%
Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:
		 -- John 11:18
%
And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning
their brother.
		 -- John 11:19
%
Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him:
but Mary sat still in the house.
		 -- John 11:20
%
Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother
had not died.
		 -- John 11:21
%
But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will
give it thee.
		 -- John 11:22
%
Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
		 -- John 11:23
%
Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection
at the last day.
		 -- John 11:24
%
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that
believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
		 -- John 11:25
%
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.  Believest
thou this?
		 -- John 11:26
%
She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ,
the Son of God, which should come into the world.
		 -- John 11:27
%
And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister
secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
		 -- John 11:28
%
As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.
		 -- John 11:29
%
Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where
Martha met him.
		 -- John 11:30
%
The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when
they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her,
saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.
		 -- John 11:31
%
Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at
his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother
had not died.
		 -- John 11:32
%
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which
came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
		 -- John 11:33
%
And said, Where have ye laid him?  They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
		 -- John 11:34
%
Jesus wept.
		 -- John 11:35
%
Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!
		 -- John 11:36
%
And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the
blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?
		 -- John 11:37
%
Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave.	It was
a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
		 -- John 11:38
%
Jesus said, Take ye away the stone.  Martha, the sister of him that was
dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been
dead four days.
		 -- John 11:39
%
Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest
believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
		 -- John 11:40
%
Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid.
And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou
hast heard me.
		 -- John 11:41
%
And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which
stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
		 -- John 11:42
%
And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus,
come forth.
		 -- John 11:43
%
And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes:
and his face was bound about with a napkin.  Jesus saith unto them,
Loose him, and let him go.
		 -- John 11:44
%
Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which
Jesus did, believed on him.
		 -- John 11:45
%
But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what
things Jesus had done.
		 -- John 11:46
%
Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said,
What do we?  for this man doeth many miracles.
		 -- John 11:47
%
If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans
shall come and take away both our place and nation.
		 -- John 11:48
%
And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year,
said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,
		 -- John 11:49
%
Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for
the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
		 -- John 11:50
%
And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year,
he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;
		 -- John 11:51
%
And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together
in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.
		 -- John 11:52
%
Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him
to death.
		 -- John 11:53
%
Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence
unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim,
and there continued with his disciples.
		 -- John 11:54
%
And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country
up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.
		 -- John 11:55
%
Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood
in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?
		 -- John 11:56
%
Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment,
that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might
take him.
		 -- John 11:57
%
THEN Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus
was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
		 -- John 12:1
%
There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of
them that sat at the table with him.
		 -- John 12:2
%
Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed
the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was
filled with the odour of the ointment.
		 -- John 12:3
%
Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which
should betray him,
		 -- John 12:4
%
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to
the poor?
		 -- John 12:5
%
This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief,
and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
		 -- John 12:6
%
Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she
kept this.
		 -- John 12:7
%
For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
		 -- John 12:8
%
Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came
not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he
had raised from the dead.
		 -- John 12:9
%
But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;
		 -- John 12:10
%
Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed
on Jesus.
		 -- John 12:11
%
On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard
that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
		 -- John 12:12
%
Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried,
Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of
the Lord.
		 -- John 12:13
%
And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
		 -- John 12:14
%
Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an
ass's colt.
		 -- John 12:15
%
These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus
was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him,
and that they had done these things unto him.
		 -- John 12:16
%
The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of
his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.
		 -- John 12:17
%
For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had
done this miracle.
		 -- John 12:18
%
The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye
prevail nothing?  behold, the world is gone after him.
		 -- John 12:19
%
And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at
the feast:
		 -- John 12:20
%
The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee,
and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
		 -- John 12:21
%
Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
		 -- John 12:22
%
And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man
should be glorified.
		 -- John 12:23
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the
ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth
much fruit.
		 -- John 12:24
%
He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in
this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
		 -- John 12:25
%
If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also
my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
		 -- John 12:26
%
Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say?	Father, save me from
this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
		 -- John 12:27
%
Father, glorify thy name.  Then came there a voice from heaven, saying,
I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
		 -- John 12:28
%
The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered:
others said, An angel spake to him.
		 -- John 12:29
%
Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for
your sakes.
		 -- John 12:30
%
Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world
be cast out.
		 -- John 12:31
%
And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
		 -- John 12:32
%
This he said, signifying what death he should die.
		 -- John 12:33
%
The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth
for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up?  who is
this Son of man?
		 -- John 12:34
%
Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you.
Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that
walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
		 -- John 12:35
%
While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children
of light.  These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself
from them.
		 -- John 12:36
%
But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed
not on him:
		 -- John 12:37
%
That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake,
Lord, who hath believed our report?  and to whom hath the arm of the
Lord been revealed?
		 -- John 12:38
%
Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
		 -- John 12:39
%
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not
see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted,
and I should heal them.
		 -- John 12:40
%
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
		 -- John 12:41
%
Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but
because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be
put out of the synagogue:
		 -- John 12:42
%
For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
		 -- John 12:43
%
Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me,
but on him that sent me.
		 -- John 12:44
%
And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.
		 -- John 12:45
%
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should
not abide in darkness.
		 -- John 12:46
%
And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I
came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
		 -- John 12:47
%
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth
him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the
last day.
		 -- John 12:48
%
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave
me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
		 -- John 12:49
%
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak
therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
		 -- John 12:50
%
NOW before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was
come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having
loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
		 -- John 13:1
%
And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas
Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;
		 -- John 13:2
%
Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands,
and that he was come from God, and went to God;
		 -- John 13:3
%
He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel,
and girded himself.
		 -- John 13:4
%
After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples'
feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
		 -- John 13:5
%
Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou
wash my feet?
		 -- John 13:6
%
Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but
thou shalt know hereafter.
		 -- John 13:7
%
Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet.  Jesus answered him,
If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
		 -- John 13:8
%
Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands
and my head.
		 -- John 13:9
%
Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet,
but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
		 -- John 13:10
%
For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all
clean.
		 -- John 13:11
%
So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was
set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
		 -- John 13:12
%
Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
		 -- John 13:13
%
If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought
to wash one another's feet.
		 -- John 13:14
%
For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
		 -- John 13:15
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord;
neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
		 -- John 13:16
%
If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
		 -- John 13:17

I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture
may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel
against me.
		 -- John 13:18
%
Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may
believe that I am he.
		 -- John 13:19
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send
receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
		 -- John 13:20
%
When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified,
and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
		 -- John 13:21
%
Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.
		 -- John 13:22
%
Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus
loved.
		 -- John 13:23
%
Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should
be of whom he spake.
		 -- John 13:24
%
He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?
		 -- John 13:25
%
Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have
dipped it.  And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot,
the son of Simon.
		 -- John 13:26
%
And after the sop Satan entered into him.  Then said Jesus unto him,
That thou doest, do quickly.
		 -- John 13:27
%
Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
		 -- John 13:28
%
For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said
unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or,
that he should give something to the poor.
		 -- John 13:29
%
He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.
		 -- John 13:30
%
Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man
glorified, and God is glorified in him.
		 -- John 13:31
%
If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself,
and shall straightway glorify him.
		 -- John 13:32
%
Little children, yet a little while I am with you.  Ye shall seek me:
and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say
to you.
		 -- John 13:33
%
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have
loved you, that ye also love one another.
		 -- John 13:34
%
By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love
one to another.
		 -- John 13:35
%
Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou?  Jesus answered
him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow
me afterwards.
		 -- John 13:36
%
Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now?  I will lay
down my life for thy sake.
		 -- John 13:37
%
Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake?  Verily,
verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied
me thrice.
		 -- John 13:38
%
LET not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
		 -- John 14:1
%
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have
told you.  I go to prepare a place for you.
		 -- John 14:2
%
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive
you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
		 -- John 14:3
%
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
		 -- John 14:4
%
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how
can we know the way?
		 -- John 14:5
%
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man
cometh unto the Father, but by me.
		 -- John 14:6
%
If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from
henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
		 -- John 14:7
%
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
		 -- John 14:8
%
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast
thou not known me, Philip?  he that hath seen me hath seen the Father;
and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
		 -- John 14:9
%
Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?
the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father
that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
		 -- John 14:10
%
Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe
me for the very works' sake.
		 -- John 14:11
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works
that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do;
because I go unto my Father.
		 -- John 14:12
%
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father
may be glorified in the Son.
		 -- John 14:13
%
If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
		 -- John 14:14
%
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
		 -- John 14:15
%
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter,
that he may abide with you for ever;
		 -- John 14:16
%
Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth
him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you,
and shall be in you.
		 -- John 14:17
%
I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
		 -- John 14:18
%
Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me:
because I live, ye shall live also.
		 -- John 14:19
%
At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I
in you.
		 -- John 14:20
%
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me:
and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him,
and will manifest myself to him.
		 -- John 14:21
%
Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt
manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
		 -- John 14:22
%
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my
words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make
our abode with him.
		 -- John 14:23
%
He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear
is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
		 -- John 14:24
%
These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
		 -- John 14:25
%
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send
in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your
remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
		 -- John 14:26
%
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world
giveth, give I unto you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let
it be afraid.
		 -- John 14:27
%
Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you.
If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father:
for my Father is greater than I.
		 -- John 14:28
%
And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come
to pass, ye might believe.
		 -- John 14:29
%
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world
cometh, and hath nothing in me.
		 -- John 14:30
%
But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father
gave me commandment, even so I do.  Arise, let us go hence.
		 -- John 14:31
%
I AM the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
		 -- John 15:1
%
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch
that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
		 -- John 15:2
%
Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
		 -- John 15:3
%
Abide in me, and I in you.  As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself,
except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
		 -- John 15:4
%
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him,
the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
		 -- John 15:5
%
If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered;
and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
		 -- John 15:6
%
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will,
and it shall be done unto you.
		 -- John 15:7
%
Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be
my disciples.
		 -- John 15:8
%
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
		 -- John 15:9
%
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have
kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
		 -- John 15:10
%
These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you,
and that your joy might be full.
		 -- John 15:11
%
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
		 -- John 15:12
%
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for
his friends.
		 -- John 15:13
%
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
		 -- John 15:14
%
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what
his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I
have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
		 -- John 15:15
%
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that
ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain:
that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
		 -- John 15:16
%
These things I command you, that ye love one another.
		 -- John 15:17
%
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
		 -- John 15:18
%
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye
are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore
the world hateth you.
		 -- John 15:19
%
Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than
his lord.  If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you;
if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
		 -- John 15:20
%
But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because
they know not him that sent me.
		 -- John 15:21
%
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now
they have no cloke for their sin.
		 -- John 15:22
%
He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
		 -- John 15:23
%
If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had
not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
		 -- John 15:24
%
But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written
in their law, They hated me without a cause.
		 -- John 15:25
%
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the
Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father,
he shall testify of me:
		 -- John 15:26
%
And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the
beginning.
		 -- John 15:27
%
THESE things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
		 -- John 16:1
%
They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that
whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
		 -- John 16:2
%
And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the
Father, nor me.
		 -- John 16:3
%
But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may
remember that I told you of them.  And these things I said not unto you
at the beginning, because I was with you.
		 -- John 16:4
%
But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me,
Whither goest thou?
		 -- John 16:5
%
But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled
your heart.
		 -- John 16:6
%
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go
away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but
if I depart, I will send him unto you.
		 -- John 16:7
%
And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of
righteousness, and of judgment:
		 -- John 16:8
%
Of sin, because they believe not on me;
		 -- John 16:9
%
Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
		 -- John 16:10
%
Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
		 -- John 16:11
%
I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
		 -- John 16:12
%
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all
truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear,
that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
		 -- John 16:13
%
He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it
unto you.
		 -- John 16:14
%
All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he
shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
		 -- John 16:15
%
A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while,
and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
		 -- John 16:16
%
Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that
he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again,
a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
		 -- John 16:17
%
They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while?
we cannot tell what he saith.
		 -- John 16:18
%
Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them,
Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye
shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
		 -- John 16:19
%
Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the
world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall
be turned into joy.
		 -- John 16:20
%
A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come:
but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more
the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
		 -- John 16:21
%
And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your
heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
		 -- John 16:22
%
And in that day ye shall ask me nothing.  Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.
		 -- John 16:23
%
Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive,
that your joy may be full.
		 -- John 16:24
%
These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh,
when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you
plainly of the Father.
		 -- John 16:25
%
At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will
pray the Father for you:
		 -- John 16:26
%
For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have
believed that I came out from God.
		 -- John 16:27
%
I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave
the world, and go to the Father.
		 -- John 16:28
%
His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest
no proverb.
		 -- John 16:29
%
Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any
man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
		 -- John 16:30
%
Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
		 -- John 16:31
%
Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered,
every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone,
because the Father is with me.
		 -- John 16:32
%
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have
overcome the world.
		 -- John 16:33
%
THESE words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said,
Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may
glorify thee:
		 -- John 17:1
%
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal
life to as many as thou hast given him.
		 -- John 17:2
%
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God,
and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
		 -- John 17:3
%
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou
gavest me to do.
		 -- John 17:4
%
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory
which I had with thee before the world was.
		 -- John 17:5
%
I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of
the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept
thy word.
		 -- John 17:6
%
Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are
of thee.
		 -- John 17:7
%
For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they
have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee,
and they have believed that thou didst send me.
		 -- John 17:8
%
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast
given me; for they are thine.
		 -- John 17:9
%
And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
		 -- John 17:10
%
And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I
come to thee.  Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou
hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
		 -- John 17:11
%
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that
thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of
perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
		 -- John 17:12
%
And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they
might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
		 -- John 17:13
%
I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they
are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
		 -- John 17:14
%
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou
shouldest keep them from the evil.
		 -- John 17:15
%
They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
		 -- John 17:16
%
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
		 -- John 17:17
%
As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into
the world.
		 -- John 17:18
%
And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified
through the truth.
		 -- John 17:19
%
Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe
on me through their word;
		 -- John 17:20
%
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee,
that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou
hast sent me.
		 -- John 17:21
%
And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be
one, even as we are one:
		 -- John 17:22
%
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and
that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them,
as thou hast loved me.
		 -- John 17:23
%
Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where
I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou
lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
		 -- John 17:24
%
O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee,
and these have known that thou hast sent me.
		 -- John 17:25
%
And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the
love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
		 -- John 17:26
%
WHEN Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples
over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered,
and his disciples.
		 -- John 18:1
%
And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes
resorted thither with his disciples.
		 -- John 18:2
%
Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief
priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and
weapons.
		 -- John 18:3
%
Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth,
and said unto them, Whom seek ye?
		 -- John 18:4
%
They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth.  Jesus saith unto them, I am he.
And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.
		 -- John 18:5
%
As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward,
and fell to the ground.
		 -- John 18:6
%
Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye?  And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
		 -- John 18:7
%
Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me,
let these go their way:
		 -- John 18:8
%
That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou
gavest me have I lost none.
		 -- John 18:9
%
Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's
servant, and cut off his right ear.  The servant's name was Malchus.
		 -- John 18:10
%
Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup
which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
		 -- John 18:11
%
Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus,
and bound him,
		 -- John 18:12
%
And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas,
which was the high priest that same year.
		 -- John 18:13
%
Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient
that one man should die for the people.
		 -- John 18:14
%
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple
was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace
of the high priest.
		 -- John 18:15
%
But Peter stood at the door without.  Then went out that other disciple,
which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the
door, and brought in Peter.
		 -- John 18:16
%
Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also
one of this man's disciples?  He saith, I am not.
		 -- John 18:17
%
And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals;
for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them,
and warmed himself.
		 -- John 18:18
%
The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.
		 -- John 18:19
%
Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the
synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in
secret have I said nothing.
		 -- John 18:20
%
Why askest thou me?  ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them:
behold, they know what I said.
		 -- John 18:21
%
And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck
Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high
priest so?
		 -- John 18:22
%
Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil:
but if well, why smitest thou me?
		 -- John 18:23
%
Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.
		 -- John 18:24
%
And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself.  They said therefore unto him,
Art not thou also one of his disciples?  He denied it, and said, I am not.
		 -- John 18:25
%
One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear
Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
		 -- John 18:26
%
Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.
		 -- John 18:27
%
Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was
early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they
should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.
		 -- John 18:28
%
Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye
against this man?
		 -- John 18:29
%
They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would
not have delivered him up unto thee.
		 -- John 18:30
%
Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to
your law.  The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to
put any man to death:
		 -- John 18:31
%
That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying
what death he should die.
		 -- John 18:32
%
Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus,
and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
		 -- John 18:33
%
Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others
tell it thee of me?
		 -- John 18:34
%
Pilate answered, Am I a Jew?  Thine own nation and the chief priests
have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
		 -- John 18:35
%
Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of
this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered
to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
		 -- John 18:36
%
Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then?  Jesus answered,
Thou sayest that I am a king.  To this end was I born, and for this
cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth.
Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
		 -- John 18:37
%
Pilate saith unto him, What is truth?  And when he had said this, he
went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no
fault at all.
		 -- John 18:38
%
But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover:
will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
		 -- John 18:39
%
Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas.
Now Barabbas was a robber.
		 -- John 18:40
%
THEN Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
		 -- John 19:1
%
And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head,
and they put on him a purple robe,
		 -- John 19:2
%
And said, Hail, King of the Jews!  and they smote him with their hands.
		 -- John 19:3
%
Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring
him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.
		 -- John 19:4
%
Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe.
And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!
		 -- John 19:5
%
When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out,
saying, Crucify him, crucify him.  Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him,
and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.
		 -- John 19:6
%
The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die,
because he made himself the Son of God.
		 -- John 19:7
%
When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;
		 -- John 19:8
%
And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence
art thou?  But Jesus gave him no answer.
		 -- John 19:9
%
Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me?	knowest thou
not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?
		 -- John 19:10
%
Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except
it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee
hath the greater sin.
		 -- John 19:11
%
And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried
out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend:
whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
		 -- John 19:12
%
When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and
sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement,
but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
		 -- John 19:13
%
And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour:
and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!
		 -- John 19:14
%
But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him.	Pilate
saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King?  The chief priest answered,
We have no king but Caesar.
		 -- John 19:15
%
Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified.  And they
took Jesus, and led him away.
		 -- John 19:16
%
And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a
skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:
		 -- John 19:17
%
Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one,
and Jesus in the midst.
		 -- John 19:18
%
And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross.  And the writing was,
JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
		 -- John 19:19
%
This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was
crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek,
and Latin.
		 -- John 19:20
%
Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King
of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.
		 -- John 19:21
%
Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
		 -- John 19:22
%
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments,
and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now
the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
		 -- John 19:23
%
They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots
for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which
saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did
cast lots.  These things therefore the soldiers did.
		 -- John 19:24
%
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister,
Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
		 -- John 19:25
%
When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by,
whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
		 -- John 19:26
%
Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother!  And from that hour
that disciple took her unto his own home.
		 -- John 19:27
%
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that
the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
		 -- John 19:28
%
Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge
with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.
		 -- John 19:29
%
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished:
and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
		 -- John 19:30
%
The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies
should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath
day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken,
and that they might be taken away.
		 -- John 19:31
%
Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the
other which was crucified with him.
		 -- John 19:32
%
But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they
brake not his legs:
		 -- John 19:33
%
But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith
came there out blood and water.
		 -- John 19:34
%
And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth
that he saith true, that ye might believe.
		 -- John 19:35
%
For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled,
A bone of him shall not be broken.
		 -- John 19:36
%
And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they
pierced.
		 -- John 19:37
%
And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but
secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away
the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave.  He came therefore, and
took the body of Jesus.
		 -- John 19:38
%
And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night,
and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
		 -- John 19:39
%
Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with
the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
		 -- John 19:40
%
Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the
garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.
		 -- John 19:41
%
There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day;
for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.
		 -- John 19:42
%
THE first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was
yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the
sepulchre.
		 -- John 20:1
%
Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple,
whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord
out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.
		 -- John 20:2
%
Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the
sepulchre.
		 -- John 20:3
%
So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter,
and came first to the sepulchre.
		 -- John 20:4
%
And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying;
yet went he not in.
		 -- John 20:5
%
Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre,
and seeth the linen clothes lie,
		 -- John 20:6
%
And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes,
but wrapped together in a place by itself.
		 -- John 20:7
%
Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre,
and he saw, and believed.
		 -- John 20:8
%
For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from
the dead.
		 -- John 20:9
%
Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.
		 -- John 20:10
%
But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she
stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,
		 -- John 20:11
%
And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the
other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
		 -- John 20:12
%
And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou?  She saith unto them,
Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have
laid him.
		 -- John 20:13
%
And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus
standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
		 -- John 20:14
%
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou?	whom seekest thou?  She,
supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne
him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
		 -- John 20:15
%
Jesus saith unto her, Mary.  She turned herself, and saith unto him,
Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
		 -- John 20:16
%
Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my
Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father,
and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
		 -- John 20:17
%
Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord,
and that he had spoken these things unto her.
		 -- John 20:18
%
Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the
doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews,
came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
		 -- John 20:19
%
And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side.
Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.
		 -- John 20:20
%
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent
me, even so send I you.
		 -- John 20:21
%
And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them,
Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
		 -- John 20:22
%
Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever
sins ye retain, they are retained.
		 -- John 20:23
%
But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when
Jesus came.
		 -- John 20:24
%
The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord.
But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the
nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand
into his side, I will not believe.
		 -- John 20:25
%
And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with
them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst,
and said, Peace be unto you.
		 -- John 20:26
%
Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and
reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless,
but believing.
		 -- John 20:27
%
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
		 -- John 20:28
%
Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast
believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
		 -- John 20:29
%
And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples,
which are not written in this book:
		 -- John 20:30
%
But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
		 -- John 20:31
%
AFTER these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the
sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.
		 -- John 21:1
%
There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and
Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of
his disciples.
		 -- John 21:2
%
Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing.  They say unto him, We also
go with thee.  They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately;
and that night they caught nothing.
		 -- John 21:3
%
But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the
disciples knew not that it was Jesus.
		 -- John 21:4
%
Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat?  They answered
him, No.
		 -- John 21:5
%
And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and
ye shall find.	They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw
it for the multitude of fishes.
		 -- John 21:6
%
Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord.
Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's
coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.
		 -- John 21:7
%
And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from
land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.
		 -- John 21:8
%
As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there,
and fish laid thereon, and bread.
		 -- John 21:9
%
Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.
		 -- John 21:10
%
Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes,
and hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet
was not the net broken.
		 -- John 21:11
%
Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine.  And none of the disciples durst
ask him, Who art thou?	knowing that it was the Lord.
		 -- John 21:12
%
Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.
		 -- John 21:13
%
This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples,
after that he was risen from the dead.
		 -- John 21:14
%
So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas,
lovest thou me more than these?  He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou
knowest that I love thee.  He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
		 -- John 21:15
%
He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest
thou me?  He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee.
He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
		 -- John 21:16
%
He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me?
Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me?
And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that
I love thee.  Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
		 -- John 21:17
%
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst
thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be
old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee,
and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
		 -- John 21:18
%
This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God.	And when
he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.
		 -- John 21:19
%
Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following;
which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he
that betrayeth thee?
		 -- John 21:20
%
Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
		 -- John 21:21
%
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that
to thee?  follow thou me.
		 -- John 21:22
%
Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple
should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but,
If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?
		 -- John 21:23
%
This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these
things: and we know that his testimony is true.
		 -- John 21:24
%
And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they
should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could
not contain the books that should be written.  Amen.
