2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye
not that I must be about my Father's business?
4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man
shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
4:8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me,
Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God,
and him only shalt thou serve.
4:12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt
not tempt the Lord thy God.
4:18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath
anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to
heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives,
and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them
that are bruised,
4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture
fulfilled in your ears.
4:23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this
proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done
in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.
4:24 And he said, Verily, I say unto you, No prophet is
accepted in his own country.
4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in
the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and
six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
4:26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta,
[a city] of Sidon, unto a woman [that was] a widow.
4:27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the
prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.
4:35 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come
out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he
came out of him, and hurt him not.
4:43 And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God
to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch
out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
5:10 And so [was] also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee,
which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear
not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
5:13 And he put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying, I
will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from
him.
5:14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and show
thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as
Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
5:20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy
sins are forgiven thee.
5:22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said
unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?
5:23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or
to say, Rise up and walk?
5:24 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.
5:27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a
publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he
said unto him, Follow me.
5:31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole
need not a physician; but they that are sick.
5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to
repentance.
5:34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the
bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
5:35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken
away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.
5:36 And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a
piece of a new 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.
5:37 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.
5:38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are
preserved.
5:39 No man also having drunk old [wine] straightway desireth
new: for he saith, The old is better.
6:3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as
this, what David did, when himself was an hungered, and they
which were with him;
6:4 How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the
showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is
not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
6:5 And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of
the sabbath.
6:8 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.
6:9 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]?
6:10 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.
6:19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there
went virtue out of him, and healed [them] all.
6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said,
Blessed [be ye] poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
6:21 Blessed [are ye] that hunger now: for ye shall be
filled. Blessed [are ye] that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
6:22 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.
6:23 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.
6:24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your
consolation.
6:25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto
you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
6:26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so
did their fathers to the false prophets.
6:27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good
to them which hate you,
6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which
despitefully use you.
6:29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer
also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not
[to take thy] coat also.
6:30 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that
taketh away thy goods ask [them] not again.
6:31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to
them likewise.
6:32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye?
for sinners also love those that love them.
6:33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank
have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
6:34 And if ye lend [to them] of whom ye hope to receive, what
thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as
much again.
6:35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping
for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall
be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the
unthankful and [to] the evil.
6:36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and
ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure,
pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men
give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete
withal it shall be measured to you again.
6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the
blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that
is perfect shall be as his master.
6:41 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's
eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
6:42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me
pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself
beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite,
cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt
thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's
eye.
6:43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither
doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns
men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth
forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the
evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil:
for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things
which I say?
6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and
doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:
6:48 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.
6:49 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.
7:9 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.
7:13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and
said unto her, Weep not.
7:14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare [him]
stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
7:22 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.
7:23 And blessed is [he], whosoever shall not be offended in me.
7:24 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?
7:25 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.
7:26 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say
unto you, and much more than a prophet.
7:27 This is [he], of whom it is written, Behold, I send my
messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before
thee.
7:28 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.
7:31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of
this generation? and to what are they like?
7:32 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.
7:33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor
drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
7:34 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!
7:35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.
7:40 And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat
to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
7:41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the
one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
7:42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them
both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
7:43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that [he], to whom he
forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
7:44 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.
7:45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I
came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
7:46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman
hath anointed my feet with ointment.
7:47 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.
7:48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in
peace.
8:5 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.
8:6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up,
it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
8:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with
it, and choked it.
8:8 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.
8:10 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.
8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
8:12 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.
8:13 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.
8:14 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.
8:15 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.
8:16 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.
8:17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest;
neither [any thing] hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
8:18 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.
8:21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my
brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.
8:22 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.
8:25 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.
8:30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he
said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
8:39 Return to thine own house, and show 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.
8:45 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?
8:46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive
that virtue is gone out of me.
8:48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy
faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
8:50 But when Jesus heard [it], he answered him, saying, Fear
not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
8:52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she
is not dead, but sleepeth.
8:54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and
called, saying, Maid, arise.
9:3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for [your] journey,
neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither
have two coats apiece.
9:4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence
depart.
9:5 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.
9:13 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.
9:14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his
disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
9:18 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?
9:20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter
answering said, The Christ of God.
9:22 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.
9:23 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.
9:24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but
whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
9:25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world,
and lose himself, or be cast away?
9:26 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.
9:27 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.
9:41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse
generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring
thy son hither.
9:44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of
man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
9:48 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.
9:50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is
not against us is for us.
9:55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not
what manner of spirit ye are of.
9:56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but
to save [them]. And they went to another village.
9:58 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.
9:59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord,
suffer me first to go and bury my father.
9:60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go
thou and preach the kingdom of God.
9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to
the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
10:2 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.
10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among
wolves.
10:4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no
man by the way.
10:5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace [be]
to this house.
10:6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest
upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
10:7 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.
10:8 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you,
eat such things as are set before you:
10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The
kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10:10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you
not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
10:11 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.
10:12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in
that day for Sodom, than for that city.
10:13 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.
10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the
judgment, than for you.
10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt
be thrust down to hell.
10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you
despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent
me.
10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall
from heaven.
10:19 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.
10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are
subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are
written in heaven.
10:21 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.
10:22 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].
10:23 And he turned him unto [his] disciples, and said
privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that ye
see:
10:24 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].
10:26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest
thou?
10:28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do,
and thou shalt live.
10:30 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.
10:31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that
way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
10:32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and
looked [on him], and passed by on the other side.
10:33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he
was: and when he saw him, he had compassion [on him],
10:34 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.
10:35 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.
10:36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour
unto him that fell among the thieves?
10:37 And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus
unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
10:41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha,
thou art careful and troubled about many things:
10:42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good
part, which shall not be taken away from her.
11:2 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.
11:3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
11:4 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.
11:5 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;
11:6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I
have nothing to set before him?
11:7 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.
11:8 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.
11:9 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.
11:10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh
findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11:11 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?
11:12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
11:13 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?
11:17 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.
11:18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his
kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through
Beelzebub.
11:19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your
sons cast [them] out? therefore shall they be your judges.
11:20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt
the kingdom of God is come upon you.
11:21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods
are in peace:
11:22 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.
11:23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that
gathereth not with me scattereth.
11:24 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.
11:25 And when he cometh, he findeth [it] swept and garnished.
11:26 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.
11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed [are] they that hear the
word of God, and keep it.
11:29 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.
11:30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also
the Son of man be to this generation.
11:31 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.
11:32 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.
11:33 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.
11:34 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.
11:35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be
not darkness.
11:36 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.
11:39 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.
11:40 [Ye] fools, did not he that made that which is without
make that which is within also?
11:41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and,
behold, all things are clean unto you.
11:42 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.
11:43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats
in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.
11:44 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].
11:46 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.
11:47 Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets,
and your fathers killed them.
11:48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your
fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their
sepulchres.
11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them
prophets and apostles, and [some] of them they shall slay and
persecute:
11:50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from
the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
11:51 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.
11:52 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.
12:1 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.
12:2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed;
neither hid, that shall not be known.
12:3 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.
12:4 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.
12:5 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.
12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one
of them is forgotten before God?
12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
12:8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men,
him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of
God:
12:9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before
the angels of God.
12:10 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.
12:11 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:
12:12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what
ye ought to say.
12:14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a
divider over you?
12:15 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.
12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of
a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
12:17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do,
because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
12:18 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.
12:19 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.
12:20 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?
12:21 So [is] he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is
not rich toward God.
12:22 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.
12:23 The life is more than meat, and the body [is more] than
raiment.
12:24 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?
12:25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his
stature one cubit?
12:26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least,
why take ye thought for the rest?
12:27 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.
12:28 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?
12:29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink,
neither be ye of doubtful mind.
12:30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek
after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these
things shall be added unto you.
12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good
pleasure to give you the kingdom.
12:33 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.
12:34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
12:35 Let your loins be girded about, and [your] lights burning;
12:36 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.
12:37 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.
12:38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the
third watch, and find [them] so, blessed are those servants.
12:39 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.
12:40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at
an hour when ye think not.
12:42 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?
12:43 Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh
shall find so doing.
12:44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler
over all that he hath.
12:45 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;
12:46 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.
12:47 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].
12:48 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.
12:49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if
it be already kindled?
12:50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I
straitened till it be accomplished!
12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I
tell you, Nay; but rather division:
12:52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house
divided, three against two, and two against three.
12:53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son
against the 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.
12:54 And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise
out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and
so it is.
12:55 And when [ye see] the south wind blow, ye say, There will
be heat; and it cometh to pass.
12:56 [Ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and
of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?
12:57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is
right?
12:58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate,
[as thou art] in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be
delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the
judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee
into prison.
12:59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast
paid the very last mite.
13:2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these
Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they
suffered such things?
13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all
likewise perish.
13:4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and
slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that
dwelt in Jerusalem?
13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all
likewise perish.
13:6 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.
13:7 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?
13:8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this
year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung [it]:
13:9 And if it bear fruit, [well]: and if not, [then] after
that thou shalt cut it down.
13:12 And when Jesus saw her, he called [her to him], and said
unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
13:15 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?
13:16 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?
13:18 Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and
whereunto shall I resemble it?
13:19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and
cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and
the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.
13:20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of
God?
13:21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three
measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say
unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath
shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at
the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall
answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
13:26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in
thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
13:27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye
are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
13:28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye
shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets,
in the kingdom of God, and you [yourselves] thrust out.
13:29 And they shall come from the east, and [from] the west,
and from the north, and [from] the south, and shall sit down in
the kingdom of God.
13:30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and
there are first which shall be last.
13:32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold,
I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the
third [day] I shall be perfected.
13:33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the
[day] following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of
Jerusalem.
13:34 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!
13:35 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily
I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until [the time] come when
ye shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the
Lord.
14:3 And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees,
saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?
14:5 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?
14:8 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;
14:9 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.
14:10 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.
14:11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he
that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
14:12 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 recompense be made thee.
14:13 But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the
maimed, the lame, the blind:
14:14 And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense
thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the
just.
14:16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great
supper, and bade many:
14:17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that
were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.
14:18 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.
14:19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and
I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
14:20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I
cannot come.
14:21 So that servant came, and showed 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.
14:22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast
commanded, and yet there is room.
14:23 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.
14:24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were
bidden shall taste of my supper.
14:26 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.
14:27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me,
cannot be my disciple.
14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not
down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have [sufficient]
to finish [it]?
14:29 Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not
able to finish [it], all that behold [it] begin to mock him,
14:30 Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to
finish.
14:31 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?
14:32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he
sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.
14:33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not
all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
14:34 Salt [is] good: but if the salt have lost his savour,
wherewith shall it be seasoned?
14:35 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.
15:4 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?
15:5 And when he hath found [it], he layeth [it] on his
shoulders, rejoicing.
15:6 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.
15:7 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.
15:8 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]?
15:9 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.
15:10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of
the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
15:11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
15:12 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.
15:13 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.
15:14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in
that land; and he began to be in want.
15:15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that
country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
15:16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks
that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
15:17 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!
15:18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him,
Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
15:19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as
one of thy hired servants.
15:20 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.
15:21 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.
15:22 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:
15:23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill [it]; and
let us eat, and be merry:
15:24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost,
and is found. And they began to be merry.
15:25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and
drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing.
15:26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these
things meant.
15:27 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.
15:28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his
father out, and entreated him.
15:29 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:
15:30 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured
thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted
calf.
15:31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all
that I have is thine.
15:32 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.
16:1 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.
16:2 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.
16:3 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.
16:4 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the
stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
16:5 So he called every one of his lord's debtors [unto him],
and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
16:6 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto
him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
16:7 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.
16:8 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.
16:9 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.
16:10 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.
16:11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous
mammon, who will commit to your trust the true [riches]?
16:12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another
man's, who shall give you that which is your own?
16:13 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.
16:15 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.
16:16 The law and the prophets [were] until John: since that
time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into
it.
16:17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one
tittle of the law to fail.
16:18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another,
committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away
from [her] husband committeth adultery.
16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in
purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
16:20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was
laid at his gate, full of sores,
16:21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from
the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his
sores.
16:22 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;
16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and
seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
16:24 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.
16:25 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.
16:26 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.
16:27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou
wouldest send him to my father's house:
16:28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them,
lest they also come into this place of torment.
16:29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets;
let them hear them.
16:30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto
them from the dead, they will repent.
16:31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the
prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from
the dead.
17:1 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but
that offences will come: but woe [unto him], through whom they
come!
17:2 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.
17:3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against
thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
17:4 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.
17:6 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.
17:7 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?
17:8 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?
17:9 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that
were commanded him? I trow not.
17:10 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.
17:14 And when he saw [them], he said unto them, Go show
yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they
went, they were cleansed.
17:17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed?
but where [are] the nine?
17:18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God,
save this stranger.
17:19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath
made thee whole.
17:20 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:
17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for,
behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
17:22 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].
17:23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go
not after [them], nor follow [them].
17:24 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.
17:25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of
this generation.
17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in
the days of the Son of man.
17:27 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.
17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat,
they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained
fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed [them] all.
17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is
revealed.
17:31 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.
17:32 Remember Lot's wife.
17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and
whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
17:34 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.
17:35 Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be
taken, and the other left.
17:36 Two [men] shall be in the field; the one shall be taken,
and the other left.
17:37 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.
18:2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not
God, neither regarded man:
18:3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him,
saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
18:4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within
himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
18:5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her,
lest by her continual coming she weary me.
18:6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
18:7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and
night unto him, though he bear long with them?
18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless
when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
18:10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a
Pharisee, and the other a publican.
18:11 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.
18:12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I
possess.
18:13 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.
18:14 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.
18:16 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.
18:17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the
kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none
[is] good, save one, [that is], God.
18:20 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.
18:22 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.
18:24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said,
How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of
God!
18:25 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.
18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are
possible with God.
18:29 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,
18:30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time,
and in the world to come life everlasting.
18:31 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.
18:32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall
be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
18:33 And they shall scourge [him], and put him to death: and
the third day he shall rise again.
18:41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he
said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.
18:42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith
hath saved thee.
19:5 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.
19:9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to
this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which
was lost.
19:12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far
country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten
pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
19:14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him,
saying, We will not have this [man] to reign over us.
19:15 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.
19:16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained
ten pounds.
19:17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because
thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority
over ten cities.
19:18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained
five pounds.
19:19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five
cities.
19:20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] thy
pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
19:21 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.
19:22 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:
19:23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank,
that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
19:24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the
pound, and give [it] to him that hath ten pounds.
19:25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
19:26 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.
19:27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should
reign over them, bring hither, and slay [them] before me.
19:30 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].
19:31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose [him]? thus shall
ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
19:40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if
these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry
out.
19:42 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.
19:43 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,
19:44 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.
19:46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house
of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
20:3 And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you
one thing; and answer me:
20:4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
20:8 And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what
authority I do these things.
20:9 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.
20:10 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.
20:11 And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also,
and entreated [him] shamefully, and sent [him] away empty.
20:12 And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and
cast [him] out.
20:13 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.
20:14 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.
20:15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed [him].
What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
20:16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall
give the vineyard to others. And when they heard [it], they said,
God forbid.
20:17 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?
20:18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but
on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
20:23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them,
Why tempt ye me?
20:24 Show me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it?
They answered and said, Caesar's.
20:25 And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the
things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.
20:34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of
this world marry, and are given in marriage:
20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that
world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor
are given in marriage:
20:36 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.
20:37 Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the
bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God
of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
20:38 For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for
all live unto him.
20:41 And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is
David's son?
20:42 And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The Lord
said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
20:43 Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
20:44 David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?
20:46 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;
20:47 Which devour widows' houses, and for a show make long
prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.
21:3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor
widow hath cast in more than they all:
21:4 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.
21:6 [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.
21:8 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.
21:9 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.
21:10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against
nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and
famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs
shall there be from heaven.
21:12 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.
21:13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
21:14 Settle [it] therefore in your hearts, not to meditate
before what ye shall answer:
21:15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your
adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
21:16 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.
21:17 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake.
21:18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
21:19 In your patience possess ye your souls.
21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies,
then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21:21 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.
21:22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which
are written may be fulfilled.
21:23 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.
21:24 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.
21:25 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;
21:26 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.
21:27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud
with power and great glory.
21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up,
and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
21:29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and
all the trees;
21:30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own
selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
21:31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass,
know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
21:32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass
away, till all be fulfilled.
21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not
pass away.
21:34 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.
21:35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on
the face of the whole earth.
21:36 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.
22:8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the
passover, that we may eat.
22:10 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.
22:11 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?
22:12 And he shall show you a large upper room furnished: there
make ready.
22:15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to
eat this passover with you before I suffer:
22:16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof,
until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
22:17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take
this, and divide [it] among yourselves:
22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the
vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
22:19 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.
22:20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup [is]
the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
22:21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me [is] with
me on the table.
22:22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but
woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!
22:25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise
lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them
are called benefactors.
22:26 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.
22:27 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.
22:28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my
temptations.
22:29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath
appointed unto me;
22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and
sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath
desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat:
22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and
when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
22:34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow
this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest
me.
22:35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and
scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
22:36 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.
22:37 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.
22:38 And they said, Lord, behold, here [are] two swords. And
he said unto them, It is enough.
22:40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray
that ye enter not into temptation.
22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup
from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
22:46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye
enter into temptation.
22:48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of
man with a kiss?
22:51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he
touched his ear, and healed him.
22:52 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?
22:53 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.
22:67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If
I tell you, ye will not believe:
22:68 And if I also ask [you], ye will not answer me, nor let
[me] go.
22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of
the power of God.
22:70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he
said unto them, Ye say that I am.
23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the
Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest [it].
23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem,
weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
23:29 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.
23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us;
and to the hills, Cover us.
23:31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall
be done in the dry?
23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not
what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day
shalt thou be with me in paradise.
23:46 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.
24:17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications
[are] these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
24:19 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:
24:25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to
believe all that the prophets have spoken:
24:26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to
enter into his glory?
24:36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst
of them, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.
24:38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do
thoughts arise in your hearts?
24:39 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.
24:41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he
said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
24:44 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.
24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it
behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third
day:
24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be
preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
24:48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
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.
