1:1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God;
1:2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my
 messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before
 thee;
1:3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the
 way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
1:4 John was baptizing in the wilderness, and preaching the
 baptism of repentance, for the remission of sins.
1:5 And there went out to him all the land of Judea, and they of
 Jerusalem, and were all baptized by him in the river Jordan,
 confessing their sins.
1:6 And John was clothed with camels hair, and with a girdle of
 a skin about his loins; and he ate locusts and wild honey;
1:7 And preached, saying, There cometh after me one mightier
 than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop
 down and unloose.
1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he will baptize
 you with the Holy Spirit.
1:9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from
 Nazareth to Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan.
1:10 And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the
 heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him.
1:11 And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my
 beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
1:12 And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
1:13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by
 Satan: and was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered
 to him.
1:14 Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee,
 preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God
 is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
1:16 Now as he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon,
 and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they
 were fishers.
1:17 And Jesus said to them, Come ye after me, and I will make
 you to become fishers of men.
1:18 And immediately they forsook their nets, and followed him.
1:19 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 boat mending their nets.
1:20 And immediately he called them: and they left their father
 Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after
 him.
1:21 And they went into Capernaum; and immediately on the
 sabbath he entered into the synagogue and taught.
1:22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught
 them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
1:23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean
 spirit; and he cried out,
1:24 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.
1:25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out
 of him.
1:26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a
 loud voice, he came out of him.
1:27 And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among
 themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine [is]
 this? for with authority he commandeth even the unclean
 spirits, and they obey him.
1:28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the
 region around Galilee.
1:29 And forthwith, when they had come out of the synagogue,
 they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and
 John.
1:30 But the mother of Simon's wife lay sick with a fever; and
 forthwith they tell him of her.
1:31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up;
 and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
1:32 And at evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him
 all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with
 demons.
1:33 And all the city was gathered at the door.
1:34 And he healed many that were sick with divers diseases, and
 cast out many demons; and suffered not the demons to speak,
 because they knew him.
1:35 And in the morning, rising a great while before day, he
 went out and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
1:36 And Simon, and they that were with him, followed after him.
1:37 And when they had found him, they said to him, All [men]
 seek for thee.
1:38 And he said to them, Let us go into the next towns, that I
 may preach there also: for, for this purpose have I come.
1:39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee,
 and cast out demons.
1:40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling
 down to him, and saying to him, If thou wilt, thou canst make
 me clean.
1:41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth [his] hand, and
 touched him, and saith to him, I will; be thou clean.
1:42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy
 departed from him, and he was cleansed.
1:43 And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
1:44 And saith to him, See thou say nothing to any man; but go,
 show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those
 things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
1:45 But he went out, and began to publish [it] much, and to
 blaze abroad the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly
 enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they
 came to him from every quarter.
2:1 And again he entered into Capernaum, after [some] days; and
 it was understood that he was in the house.
2:2 And forthwith many were assembled, so that there was no room
 to receive [them], no not so much as about the door: and he
 preached the word to them.
2:3 And they come to him, bringing one sick with the palsy, who
 was borne by four.
2:4 And when they could not come nigh to him by reason of the
 crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had
 broken [it] up, they let down the bed on which the sick with
 the palsy lay.
2:5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the sick with the
 palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
2:6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and
 reasoning in their hearts,
2:7 Why doth this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive
 sins but God only?
2:8 And immediately, when Jesus perceived in his spirit that
 they so reasoned within themselves, he said to them, Why reason
 ye these things in your hearts?
2:9 Which is easier, to say to the sick with the palsy, [Thy]
 sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed,
 and walk?
2:10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on
 earth to forgive sins, he saith to the sick with the palsy,
2:11 I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go into thy
 house.
2:12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth
 before them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified
 God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
2:13 And he went forth again by the sea-[side]; and all the
 multitude resorted to him, and he taught them.
2:14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the [son] of Alpheus,
 sitting at the receipt of custom, and said to him, Follow me.
 And he arose, and followed him.
2:15 And it came to pass, that as Jesus sat at table in his
 house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus
 and his disciples; for there were many, and they followed him.
2:16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eating with
 publicans and sinners, they said to his disciples, How is it
 that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners.
2:17 When Jesus heard [it], he saith to them, They that are in
 health, have no need of a physician, but they that are sick; I
 came not to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.
2:18 And the disciples of John, and of the Pharisees, used to
 fast: and they come, and say to him, Why do the disciples of
 John, and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
2:19 And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the
 bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? As long
 as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
2:20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken
 from them, and then they will fast in those days.
2:21 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.
2:22 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.
2:23 And it came to pass, that he went through the corn-fields
 on the sabbath; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck
 the ears of corn.
2:24 And the Pharisees said to him, Behold, why do they on the
 sabbath that which is not lawful?
2:25 And he said to them, Have ye never read what David did,
 when he had need, and was hungry, he and they that were with
 him?
2:26 How he went into the house of God, in the days of Abiathar
 the high priest, and ate the show-bread, which it is not lawful
 to eat, but for the priests, and gave also to them who were
 with him?
2:27 And he said to them, The sabbath was made for man, and not
 man for the sabbath:
2:28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
3:1 And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man
 there who had a withered hand.
3:2 And they watched him, [to see] whether he would heal him on
 the sabbath; that they might accuse him.
3:3 And he saith to the man who had the withered hand, Stand
 forth.
3:4 And he saith to them, Is it lawful to do good on the
 sabbath, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? but they held
 their peace.
3:5 And when he had looked around on them with anger, being
 grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith to the man,
 Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched [it] out: and his hand
 was restored whole as the other.
3:6 And the Pharisees went forth, and immediately took counsel
 with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
3:7 But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea:
 and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from
 Judea.
3:8 And from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and [from] beyond
 Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when
 they had heard what great things he did, came to him.
3:9 And he spoke to his disciples, that a small boat should wait
 on him, because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.
3:10 For he had healed many; so that they pressed upon him to
 touch him, as many as had diseases.
3:11 And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before
 him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.
3:12 And he strictly charged them, that they should not make him
 known.
3:13 And he goeth up upon a mountain, and calleth [to him] whom
 he would: and they came to him.
3:14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and
 that he might send them forth to preach,
3:15 And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out
 demons.
3:16 And Simon he surnamed Peter.
3:17 And James the [son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of
 James, (and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, Sons of
 thunder,)
3:18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and
 Thomas, and James the [son] of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon
 the Canaanite,
3:19 And Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him: and they went
 into a house.
3:20 And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could
 not so much as eat bread.
3:21 And when his friends heard [of it], they went out to lay
 hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.
3:22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem, said, He hath
 Beelzebub, and by the prince of the demons he casteth out
 demons.
3:23 And he called them [to him], and said to them in parables,
 How can Satan cast out Satan?
3:24 And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom
 cannot stand.
3:25 And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot
 stand.
3:26 And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he
 cannot stand, but hath an end.
3:27 No man can enter into a strong man's house, and seize his
 goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he
 will plunder his house.
3:28 Verily I say to you, All sins shall be forgiven to the sons
 of men, and any blasphemies with which they shall blaspheme:
3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never
 hath forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
3:30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
3:31 There came then his brethren and his mother, and standing
 without, they sent to him, calling him.
3:32 And the multitude sat about him, and they said to him,
 Behold, thy mother, and thy brethren without seek for thee.
3:33 And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my
 brethren?
3:34 And he looked around on them who sat about him, and said,
 Behold, my mother and my brethren!
3:35 For whoever shall do the will of God, the same is my
 brother, and my sister, and mother.
4:1 And he began again to teach by the sea-side: and there was
 gathered to him a great multitude, so that he entered into a
 boat, and sat on the sea; and the whole multitude was by the
 sea, on the land.
4:2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said to them
 in his doctrine,
4:3 Hearken; Behold, a sower went out to sow:
4:4 And it came to pass as he sowed, some fell by the way-side,
 and the fowls of the air came and devoured it.
4:5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth;
 and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth.
4:6 But when the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it
 had no root, it withered away.
4:7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and
 choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
4:8 And other fell on good ground, and yielded fruit that sprang
 up, and increased, and brought forth, some thirty, and some
 sixty, and some a hundred.
4:9 And he said to them, He that hath ears to hear, let him
 hear.
4:10 And when he was alone, they that were about him, with the
 twelve, asked of him the parable.
4:11 And he said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery
 of the kingdom of God: but to them that are without, all
 [these] things are done in parables:
4:12 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.
4:13 And he said to them, Know ye not this parable? and how then
 will ye know all parables?
4:14 The sower soweth the word.
4:15 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.
4:16 And these are they likewise who are sown on stony ground;
 who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with
 gladness;
4:17 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 relapse.
4:18 And these are they who are sown among thorns; such as hear
 the word,
4:19 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.
4:20 And these are they who are sown on good ground; such as
 hear the word, and receive [it], and bring forth fruit, some
 thirty-fold, some sixty, and some a hundred.
4:21 And he said to them, Is a candle brought to be put under a
 close vessel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a
 candlestick?
4:22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested;
 neither hath any thing been kept secret, but that it should
 come abroad.
4:23 If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
4:24 And he said to them, Take heed what ye hear: With the
 measure which ye give, it shall be measured to you: and to you
 that hear shall more be given.
4:25 For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath
 not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.
4:26 And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should
 cast seed into the ground;
4:27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed
 should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.
4:28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of itself; first the
 blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
4:29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth
 in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
4:30 And he said, To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? or
 with what comparison shall we compare it?
4:31 [It is] like a grain of mustard-seed, which, when it is
 sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the
 earth.
4:32 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 its shade.
4:33 And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as
 they were able to hear [it].
4:34 But without a parable he spoke not to them: and when they
 were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.
4:35 And the same day, when the evening was come, he saith to
 them, Let us pass over to the other side.
4:36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him
 even as he was in the boat. And there were also with him other
 small boats.
4:37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat
 into the boat, so that it was now full.
4:38 And he was in the hinder part of the boat, asleep on a
 pillow: and they awake him, and say to him, Master, carest thou
 not that we perish?
4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea,
 Peace, be still: and the wind ceased, and there was a great
 calm.
4:40 And he said to them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that
 ye have no faith?
4:41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What
 manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
5:1 And they came over to the other side of the sea, into the
 country of the Gadarenes.
5:2 And when he had come out of the boat, immediately there met
 him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
5:3 Who had [his] dwelling among the tombs; and no man could
 bind him, no, not with chains:
5:4 For 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.
5:5 And always, night and day, he was on the mountains, and in
 the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
5:6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped him,
5:7 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.
5:8 (For he said to him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean
 spirit.)
5:9 And he asked him, What [is] thy name? And he answered,
 saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.
5:10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away
 out of the country.
5:11 Now there was there nigh to the mountains a great herd of
 swine feeding.
5:12 And all the demons besought him, saying, Send us into the
 swine, that we may enter into them.
5:13 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.
5:14 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.
5:15 And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with
 the demon, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his
 right mind: and they were afraid.
5:16 And they that saw [it] told them how it befell him that was
 possessed with the demon, and [also] concerning the swine.
5:17 And they began to pray him to depart out of their borders.
5:18 And when he had come into the boat, he that had been
 possessed with the demon prayed him that he might be with him.
5:19 Yet Jesus suffered him not, but saith to him, Go home to
 thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done
 for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
5:20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how
 great things Jesus had done for him. And all [men] wondered.
5:21 And when Jesus had passed over again in a boat to the other
 side, much people gathered to him: and he was nigh to the sea.
5:22 And behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the
 synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his
 feet,
5:23 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 will live.
5:24 And [Jesus] went with him; and many people followed him,
 and thronged him.
5:25 And a certain woman who had an issue of blood twelve years,
5:26 And had suffered many things from many physicians, and had
 spent all that she had, and was not relieved, but rather grew
 worse,
5:27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and
 touched his garment.
5:28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be
 whole.
5:29 And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up; and
 she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that infirmity.
5:30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had
 gone out of him, turned him about in the throng, and said, Who
 touched my clothes?
5:31 And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the multitude
 thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
5:32 And he looked around, to see her that had done this thing.
5:33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done
 in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the
 truth.
5:34 And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee
 whole; go in peace, and be healed of thy infirmity.
5:35 While he was yet speaking, there came from the ruler of the
 synagogue's [house certain] who said, Thy daughter is dead: why
 troublest thou the Master any further?
5:36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith
 to the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe,
5:37 And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and
 James, and John the brother of James.
5:38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue,
 and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.
5:39 And when he had come in, he saith to them, Why make ye this
 tumult, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
5:40 And they derided him: 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.
5:41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said to her,
 Talitha cumi: which is, being interpreted, Damsel (I say to
 thee) arise.
5:42 And forthwith the damsel arose, and walked; for she was [of
 the age] of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great
 astonishment.
5:43 And he charged them strictly that no man should know it;
 and commanded that something should be given her to eat.
6:1 And he went out from thence, and came into his own country,
 and his disciples follow him.
6:2 And when the sabbath 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 to him, that even such mighty works are wrought
 by his hands?
6:3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of
 James, and Joses, and of Judas, and Simon? and are not his
 sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.
6:4 But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, but
 in his own country, and among his own kindred, and in his own
 house.
6:5 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his
 hands upon a few sick persons, and healed [them].
6:6 And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went
 around the villages teaching.
6:7 And he calleth [to him] the twelve, and began to send them
 forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;
6:8 And commanded them that they should take nothing for [their]
 journey, save a staff only; no bag, no bread, no money in
 [their] purse:
6:9 But [be] shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
6:10 And he said to them, In whatever place ye enter into a
 house, there abide till ye depart from that place.
6:11 And whoever 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 to you, It shall be more
 tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than
 for that city.
6:12 And they went out and preached that men should repent.
6:13 And they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many
 that were sick, and healed [them].
6:14 And king Herod heard [of him] (for his name was spread
 abroad:) and he said, That John the Baptist had risen from the
 dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in
 him.
6:15 Others said, That it is Elijah. And others said, That it is
 a prophet, or as one of the prophets.
6:16 But when Herod heard [of him], he said, It is John, whom I
 beheaded: he hath risen from the dead.
6:17 For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John,
 and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother
 Philip's wife: for he had married her.
6:18 For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for thee to
 have thy brother's wife.
6:19 Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would
 have killed him; but she could not:
6:20 For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy
 man, and observed him: and when he heard him, he did many
 things, and heard him gladly.
6:21 And when a convenient day had come, that Herod on his
 birth-day made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief
 [men] of Galilee;
6:22 And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and
 danced, and pleased Herod, and them that sat with him, the king
 said to the damsel, Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will
 give [it] thee.
6:23 And he swore to her, Whatever thou shalt ask of me, I will
 give [it] thee, to the half of my kingdom.
6:24 And she went forth, and said to her mother, What shall I
 ask? and she said, The head of John the Baptist.
6:25 And she came in forthwith with haste to the king, and
 asked, saying, I will that thou shouldst give me, immediately,
 in a dish, the head of John the Baptist.
6:26 And the king was exceeding sorry: [yet] for his oath's
 sake, and for their sakes who sat with him, he would not reject
 her.
6:27 And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded
 his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the
 prison,
6:28 And brought his head in a dish, and gave it to the damsel:
 and the damsel gave it to her mother.
6:29 And when his disciples heard [of it], they came and took up
 his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
6:30 And the apostles assembled themselves to Jesus, and told
 him all things, both what they had done, and what they had
 taught.
6:31 And he said to 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.
6:32 And they departed into a desert place in a boat privately.
6:33 And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and
 ran on foot thither out of all cities, and out went them, and
 came together to him.
6:34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw many people, and was moved
 with compassion towards them, because they were as sheep not
 having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
6:35 And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came to
 him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time [is]
 far passed:
6:36 Send them away, that they may go into the country around,
 and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have
 nothing to eat.
6:37 He answered and said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they
 say to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of
 bread, and give them to eat?
6:38 He saith to them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And
 when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.
6:39 And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies
 upon the green grass.
6:40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.
6:41 And when he had taken the five loaves, and the two fishes,
 he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and broke the loaves, and
 gave [them] to his disciples to set before them; and the two
 fishes he divided among them all.
6:42 And they all ate, and were satisfied.
6:43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and
 of the fishes.
6:44 And they that ate of the loaves, were about five thousand
 men.
6:45 And immediately he constrained his disciples to get into
 the boat, and to go to the other side before to Bethsaida,
 while he sent away the people.
6:46 And when he had dismissed them, he departed to a mountain
 to pray.
6:47 And when evening was come, the boat was in the midst of the
 sea, and he alone on the land.
6:48 And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was
 contrary to them: and about the fourth watch of the night he
 cometh to them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by
 them.
6:49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed
 it had been a spirit, and cried out.
6:50 (For they all saw him, and were troubled.) And immediately
 he talked with them, and saith to them, Be of good cheer: It is
 I; be not afraid.
6:51 And he went up to them into the boat; and the wind ceased:
 and they were greatly amazed in themselves beyond measure, and
 wondered.
6:52 For they considered not [the miracle] of the loaves; for
 their heart was hardened.
6:53 And when they had passed over, they came into the land of
 Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
6:54 And when they had come out of the boat forthwith they knew
 him,
6:55 And ran through that whole region around, and began to
 carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he
 was.
6:56 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 healed.
7:1 Then came together to him the Pharisees, and certain of the
 scribes, who came from Jerusalem.
7:2 And when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with
 defiled (that is to say with unwashed) hands, they found fault.
7:3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash
 [their] hands often eat not, holding the tradition of the
 elders.
7:4 And [when they come] from the market, except they wash, they
 eat not. And many other things there are, which they have
 received to hold, [as] the washing of cups, and pots, and of
 brazen vessels, and tables.
7:5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy
 disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat
 bread with unwashed hands?
7:6 He answered and said to them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied
 concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people
 honoreth me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from me.
7:7 But, in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines
 the commandments of men.
7:8 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.
7:9 And he said to them, Full well ye reject the commandment of
 God, that ye may keep your own tradition,
7:10 For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother; and,
 Whoever curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
7:11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, [It
 is] Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatever thou mightest
 be profited by me; [he shall be free].
7:12 And ye suffer him no more to do aught for his father or his
 mother;
7:13 Making the word of God of no effect through your
 traditions, which ye have delivered: and many such like things
 ye do.
7:14 And when he had called all the people [to him], he said to
 them, Hearken to me every one [of you], and understand.
7:15 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.
7:16 If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
7:17 And when he had entered into the house from the people, his
 disciples asked him concerning the parable.
7:18 And he saith to them, Are ye so void of understanding also?
 Do ye not perceive, that whatever thing from without entereth
 into the man, [it] cannot defile him.
7:19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly,
 and goeth out into the draught, purging all kinds of food.
7:20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that
 defileth the man.
7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil
 thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness,
 an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness;
7:23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
7:24 And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre
 and Sidon, and entered into a house, and would have no man know
 [it]: but he could not be hid.
7:25 For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean
 spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
7:26 (The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation,) and she
 besought him that he would cast forth the demon out of her
 daughter.
7:27 But Jesus said to her, Let the children first be satisfied:
 for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast
 [it] to the dogs.
7:28 And she answered and said to him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs
 under the table eat of the children's crums.
7:29 And he said to her, For this saying, depart; the demon is
 gone out of thy daughter.
7:30 And when she had come to her house, she found the demon had
 gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
7:31 And again, departing from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he
 came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of
 Decapolis.
7:32 And they bring to him one that was deaf, and had an
 impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand
 upon him.
7:33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his
 fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue.
7:34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith to him,
 Effatha, that is, Be opened.
7:35 And immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his
 tongue was loosed, and he spoke plain.
7:36 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];
7:37 And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done
 all things well; he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb
 to speak.
8:1 In those days the multitude being very great, and having
 nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples, and saith to them,
8:2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now
 been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:
8:3 And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they
 will faint by the way: for some of them came from a distance.
8:4 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man
 satisfy these [men] with bread here in the wilderness?
8:5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said,
 Seven.
8:6 And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and
 he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and broke, and gave
 to his disciples to set before [them]; and they set [them]
 before the people.
8:7 And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and
 commanded to set them also before [them].
8:8 So they ate, and were satisfied: and they took up of the
 fragments that were left, seven baskets.
8:9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he
 dismissed them.
8:10 And forthwith he entered into a boat with his disciples,
 and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
8:11 And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with
 him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
8:12 And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth
 this generation seek for a sign? Verily I say to you, There
 shall no sign be given to this generation.
8:13 And he left them, and entering into the boat again,
 departed to the other side.
8:14 Now [the disciples] had forgotten to take bread, neither
 had they in the boat with them more than one loaf.
8:15 And he charged them saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven
 of the Pharisees, and [of] the leaven of Herod.
8:16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because
 we have no bread.
8:17 And when Jesus knew [it], he saith to them, Why reason ye,
 because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither
 understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?
8:18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and
 do ye not remember?
8:19 When I divided the five loaves among five thousand, how
 many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say to him,
 Twelve.
8:20 And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets
 full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
8:21 And he said to them, How is it that ye do not understand?
8:22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man to
 him, and besought him to touch him.
8:23 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 aught.
8:24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees walking.
8:25 After that, he put [his] hands again upon his eyes, and
 made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man
 clearly.
8:26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into
 the town, nor tell [it] to any in the town.
8:27 And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of
 Cesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying
 to them, Who do men say that I am?
8:28 And they answered, John the Baptist: but some [say],
 Elijah; and others, One of the prophets,
8:29 And he saith to them, But who say ye that I am? And Peter
 answereth and saith to him, Thou art the Christ.
8:30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
8:31 And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer
 many things, and be rejected by the elders, and the chief
 priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise
 again.
8:32 And he spoke that saying openly. And Peter took him, and
 began to rebuke him.
8:33 But when he had turned about, and looked on his disciples,
 he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou
 savorest not the things that are of God, but the things that
 are of men.
8:34 And when he had called the people [to him] with his
 disciples also, he said to them, Whoever will come after me,
 let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
8:35 For whoever will save his life, shall lose it; but whoever
 shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same
 shall save it.
8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole
 world, and lose his own soul:
8:37 Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
8:38 Whoever therefore shall be ashamed of me, and of my words,
 in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also will the
 Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his
 Father with the holy angels.
9:1 And he said to them, Verily I say to you, that there are
 some of them that stand here who shall not taste death, till
 they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.
9:2 And after six days, Jesus taketh [with him] Peter, and
 James, and John, and leadeth them up upon a high mountain apart
 by themselves; and he was transfigured before them.
9:3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so
 as no fuller on earth can whiten them.
9:4 And there appeared to them Elijah, with Moses: and they were
 talking with Jesus.
9:5 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 Elijah.
9:6 For he knew not what to say: for they were greatly
 terrified.
9:7 And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice
 came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear
 him.
9:8 And suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no man
 any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
9:9 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.
9:10 And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one
 with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
9:11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elijah
 must first come?
9:12 And he answered and told them, Elijah verily cometh first,
 and restoreth all things; and how it is written concerning the
 Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at
 naught.
9:13 But I say to you, that Elijah is indeed come, and they have
 done to him whatever they pleased, as it is written concerning
 him.
9:14 And when he came to [his] disciples, he saw a great
 multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.
9:15 And immediately all the people, when they beheld him, were
 greatly amazed, and running to [him], saluted him.
9:16 And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?
9:17 And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have
 brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit;
9:18 And wherever he taketh him, he teareth him; and he foameth
 and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away; and I spoke to
 thy disciples that they should cast him out, and they could
 not.
9:19 He answered him, and saith, O faithless generation, how
 long shall I be with you, how long shall I suffer you? bring
 him to me.
9:20 And they brought him to him: and when he saw him,
 immediately the spirit tore him; and he fell on the ground, and
 wallowed, foaming.
9:21 And he asked his father, How long is it since this came to
 him? and he said, From a child.
9:22 And often 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.
9:23 Jesus said to him, If thou canst believe, all things [are]
 possible to him that believeth.
9:24 And immediately the father of the child cried out, and said
 with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief.
9:25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he
 rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, [Thou] dumb and deaf
 spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into
 him.
9:26 And [the spirit] cried, and rent him severely, and came out
 of him: and he was as one dead; so that many said, He is dead.
9:27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he
 arose.
9:28 And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked
 him privately, Why could not we cast him out?
9:29 And he said to them, This kind can come forth by nothing,
 but by prayer and fasting.
9:30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and
 he would not that any man should know [it].
9:31 For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of
 man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him;
 and after that he is killed, he will rise the third day.
9:32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask
 him.
9:33 And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house, he asked
 them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
9:34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed
 among themselves, who [should be] the greatest.
9:35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith to them,
 If any man desireth to be first, [the same] shall be last of
 all, and servant of all.
9:36 And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and
 when he had taken him in his arms, he said to them,
9:37 Whoever shall receive one of such children in my name,
 receiveth me: and whoever shall receive me, receiveth not me,
 but him that sent me.
9:38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting
 out demons in thy name, and he followeth not us; and we forbad
 him, because he followeth not us.
9:39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not; for there is no man who
 shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of
 me.
9:40 For he that is not against us, is on our part.
9:41 For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my
 name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say to you, he
 shall not lose his reward.
9:42 And whoever shall cause one of [these] little ones that
 believe in me, to fall into sin, it is better for him that a
 millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the
 sea.
9:43 And if thy hand causeth thee to fall into sin, cut it off:
 it is better for thee to enter life maimed, than having two
 hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be
 quenched:
9:44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
9:45 And if thy foot causeth thee to fall into sin, 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:
9:46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
9:47 And if thy eye causeth thee to fall into sin, 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.
9:48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
9:49 For every one shall be salted with fire, and every
 sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
9:50 Salt [is] good: but if the salt hath lost its saltness,
 with what will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have
 peace one with another.
10:1 And he arose from thence, and cometh into the borders of
 Judea, by the further side of Jordan: and the people resort to
 him again; and, as he was accustomed, he taught them again.
10:2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful
 for a man to put away [his] wife? tempting him.
10:3 And he answered and said to them, What did Moses command
 you?
10:4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of
 divorcement, and to put [her] away.
10:5 And Jesus answered and said to them, For the hardness of
 your heart, he wrote you this precept.
10:6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male
 and female.
10:7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and
 cleave to his wife;
10:8 And they two shall be one flesh: so then they are no more
 two, but one flesh.
10:9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man
 separate.
10:10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same
 [matter].
10:11 And he saith to them, Whoever shall put away his wife, and
 marry another, committeth adultery against her.
10:12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married
 to another, she committeth adultery.
10:13 And they brought young children to him, that he should
 touch them; and [his] disciples rebuked those that brought
 [them].
10:14 But when Jesus saw [it], he was much displeased, and said
 to them, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid
 them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
10:15 Verily I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom
 of God, as a little child, he shall not enter it.
10:16 And he took them up in his arms, put [his] hands upon
 them, and blessed them.
10:17 And when he had 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?
10:18 And Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? [there
 is] none good, but one, [that is] God.
10:19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do
 not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not,
 Honor thy father and mother.
10:20 And he answered and said to him, Master, all these have I
 observed from my youth.
10:21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said to him, One
 thing thou lackest: go, sell whatever thou hast, and give to
 the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come,
 take up the cross, and follow me.
10:22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for
 he had great possessions.
10:23 And Jesus looked around, and saith to his disciples, How
 hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of
 God!
10:24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus
 answereth again, and saith to them, Children, how hard is it
 for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
10:25 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.
10:26 And they were astonished beyond measure, saying among
 themselves, Who then can be saved?
10:27 And Jesus looking upon them, saith, With men [it is]
 impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are
 possible.
10:28 Then Peter began to say to him, Lo, we have left all, and
 have followed thee.
10:29 Jesus answered and said, Verily I say to 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,
10:30 But he shall receive a hundred-fold 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.
10:31 But many [that are] first shall be last; and the last
 first.
10:32 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 to him,
10:33 [Saying], Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of
 man will be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes;
 and they will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the
 Gentiles;
10:34 And they will mock him, and will scourge him, and will
 spit upon him, and will kill him: and the third day he will
 rise again.
10:35 And James and John the sons of Zebedee come to him,
 saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatever
 we shall desire.
10:36 And he said to them, What would ye that I should do for
 you?
10:37 They said to him, Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy
 right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
10:38 But Jesus said to 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?
10:39 And they said to him, We can. And Jesus said to them, Ye
 shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of: and with the
 baptism that I am baptized with shalt ye be baptized;
10:40 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.
10:41 And when the ten heard [it], they began to be much
 displeased with James and John.
10:42 But Jesus called them, and saith to them, Ye know that
 they who are accounted to rule over the Gentiles, exercise
 lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority
 upon them.
10:43 But so it shall not be among you: but whoever will be
 great among you, shall be your minister:
10:44 And whoever of you will be the chief, shall be servant of
 all.
10:45 For even the son of man came not to be ministered to, but
 to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
10:46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho
 with his disciples, and a great number of people, blind
 Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, sat by the highway-side begging.
10:47 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.
10:48 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.
10:49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called: and
 they call the blind man, saying to him, Be of good comfort,
 rise; he calleth thee.
10:50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
10:51 And Jesus answered and said to him, What wilt thou that I
 should do to thee? The blind man said to him, Lord, that I may
 receive my sight.
10:52 And Jesus said to him, Go, thy faith hath made thee whole.
 And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in
 the way.
11:1 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, to Bethphage, and
 Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his
 disciples,
11:2 And saith to them, Go into the village over against you:
 and as soon as ye have entered into it, ye shall find a colt
 tied, on which never man sat; loose him, and bring [him].
11:3 And if any man shall say to you, Why do ye this? say ye
 that the Lord hath need of him; and immediately he will send
 him hither.
11:4 And they went, and found the colt tied by the door without,
 in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
11:5 And certain of them that stood there, said to them, What do
 ye, loosing the colt?
11:6 And they said to them even as Jesus had commanded; and they
 let them go.
11:7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments
 on him; and he sat upon him.
11:8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut
 down branches off trees, and strewed [them] in the way.
11:9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried,
 saying, Hosanna: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the
 Lord.
11:10 Blessed [be] the kingdom of our Father David, that cometh
 in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
11:11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and
 when he had looked round upon all things, it being now evening,
 he went out to Bethany, with the twelve.
11:12 And on the morrow, when they had come from Bethany, he was
 hungry,
11:13 And seeing a fig-tree afar off, having leaves, he came, if
 haply he might find any thing on it: and when he came to it, he
 found nothing but leaves: for the time of figs had not yet
 come.
11:14 And Jesus answered and said to it, Let no man eat fruit of
 thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard [it].
11:15 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 money-changers, and the
 seats of them that sold doves;
11:16 And would not suffer that any man should carry [any]
 vessel through the temple.
11:17 And he taught, saying to them, Is it not written, My house
 shall be called by all nations the house of prayer? but ye have
 made it a den of thieves.
11:18 And the scribes and chief priests heard [it], and sought
 how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all
 the people were astonished at his doctrine.
11:19 And when evening had come, he went out of the city.
11:20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the
 fig-tree dried up from the roots.
11:21 And Peter calling to remembrance, saith to him, Master,
 behold, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is withered.
11:22 And Jesus answering, saith to them, Have faith in God.
11:23 For verily I say to you, that whoever shall say to this
 mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and
 shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that the things
 which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatever he
 saith.
11:24 Therefore I say to you, Whatever things ye desire when ye
 pray, believe that ye receive [them], and ye shall have [them].
11:25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught
 against any: that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive
 you your trespasses.
11:26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is
 in heaven forgive your trespasses.
11:27 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,
11:28 And say to him, By what authority doest thou these things?
 and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
11:29 And Jesus answered and said to them, I will also ask of
 you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what
 authority I do these things.
11:30 The baptism of John, was [it] from heaven, or from men?
 answer me.
11:31 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall
 say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
11:32 But if we shall say, from men; they feared the people: for
 all [men] counted John that he was a prophet indeed.
11:33 And they answered and said to Jesus, We cannot tell. And
 Jesus answering saith to them, Neither do I tell you by what
 authority I do these things.
12:1 And he began to speak to them by parables. A [certain] man
 planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about [it], and digged [a
 place for] the wine-vat, and built a tower, and let it out to
 husbandmen, and went into a far country.
12:2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that
 he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the
 vineyard.
12:3 And they caught [him], and beat him and sent [him] away
 empty.
12:4 And again, he sent to them another servant: and at him they
 cast stones, and wounded [him] in the head, and sent [him] away
 shamefully handled.
12:5 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many
 others; beating some, and killing some.
12:6 Having yet therefore one son, his well-beloved, he sent him
 also last to them, saying, They will reverence my son.
12:7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the
 heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
12:8 And they took him, and killed [him], and cast [him] out of
 the vineyard.
12:9 What therefore will the Lord of the vineyard do? he will
 come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to
 others.
12:10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the
 builders rejected is become the head of the corner:
12:11 This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our
 eyes?
12:12 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 departed.
12:13 And they sent to him certain of the Pharisees, and of the
 Herodians, to catch him in [his] words.
12:14 And when they had come, they say to 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 Cesar, or not?
12:15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their
 hypocrisy, said to them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny,
 that I may see [it].
12:16 And they brought [it]: and he saith to them, Whose [is]
 this image and superscription? And they said to him, Cesar's.
12:17 And Jesus answering, said to them, Render to Cesar the
 things that are Cesar's, and to God the things that are God's.
 And they wondered at him.
12:18 Then come to him the Sadducees, who say there is no
 resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
12:19 Master, Moses wrote to us, If a man's brother shall die,
 and leave [his] wife, and leave no children, that his brother
 should take his wife, and raise seed to his brother.
12:20 Now there were seven brothers: and the first took a wife,
 and dying left no seed.
12:21 And the second took her, and died, neither left he any
 seed: and the third likewise.
12:22 And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the
 woman died also.
12:23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose
 wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her for a wife.
12:24 And Jesus answering, said to them, Do ye not therefore
 err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of
 God?
12:25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither
 marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels who are
 in heaven.
12:26 And concerning the dead that they rise; have ye not read
 in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spoke to him, saying,
 I [am] the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of
 Jacob?
12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living:
 ye therefore do greatly err.
12:28 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?
12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments
 [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord.
12:30 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.
12:31 And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love
 thy neighbor as thyself: there is no other commandment greater
 than these.
12:32 And the scribe said to him, Well, Master, thou hast said
 the truth: for there is one God; and there is no other but he.
12:33 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] neighbor as himself, is more than
 all whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices.
12:34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said to
 him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after
 that durst ask him any question.
12:35 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the
 temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the son of David?
12:36 For David himself said by the Holy Spirit, The LORD said
 to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thy enemies
 thy footstool.
12:37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord, and whence is he
 [then] his son? and the common people heard him gladly.
12:38 And he said to them in his doctrine, Beware of the
 scribes, who love to go in long clothing, and [love]
 salutations in the market-places,
12:39 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost
 rooms at feasts:
12:40 Who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long
 prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.
12:41 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.
12:42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two
 mites, which make a farthing.
12:43 And he called his disciples, and saith to them, Verily I
 say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more, than all
 they who have cast into the treasury.
12:44 For all [they] cast in of their abundance: but she of her
 want cast in all that she had, [even] all her living.
13:1 And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples
 saith to him, Master, see what manner of stones, and what
 buildings [are here]!
13:2 And Jesus answering said to him, Seest thou these great
 buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that
 shall not be thrown down.
13:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, over against the
 temple, Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, asked him
 privately,
13:4 Tell us, when will these things be? and what [will be] the
 sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
13:5 And Jesus answering them, began to say, Take heed lest any
 [man] deceive you:
13:6 For many will come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and
 will deceive many.
13:7 And when ye shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars, be ye
 not troubled: for [such things] must needs be; but the end
 [will] not [be] yet.
13:8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against
 kingdom: and there will be earthquakes in [divers] places, and
 there will be famines, and troubles: these [are] the beginnings
 of sorrows.
13:9 But take heed to yourselves: for they will deliver you up
 to councils; and in the synagogues ye will be beaten: and ye
 will be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a
 testimony against them.
13:10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
13:11 But when they shall lead [you], and deliver you up, be not
 anxious beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye
 premeditate: but whatever shall be given you in that hour, that
 speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Spirit.
13:12 Now the brother will betray the brother to death, and the
 father the son: and children will rise up against [their]
 parents, and will cause them to be put to death.
13:13 And ye will be hated by all [men] for my name's sake: but
 he that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved.
13:14 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 are in
 Judea flee to the mountains:
13:15 And let him that is on the house-top not go down into the
 house, neither enter [it], to take any thing out of his house:
13:16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again to
 take up his garment.
13:17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that
 nurse infants in those days.
13:18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.
13:19 For [in] those days shall be affliction, such as hath not
 been from the beginning of the creation which God created to
 this time, neither shall be.
13:20 And except the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh
 would be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen,
 he hath shortened the days.
13:21 And then, if any man shall say to you, Lo, here [is]
 Christ; or lo, [he is] there; believe [him] not.
13:22 For false Christs, and false prophets will rise, and will
 show signs and wonders, to seduce, if [it were] possible, even
 the elect.
13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall
 be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
13:25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that
 are in heaven shall be shaken.
13:26 And then they shall see the Son of man coming in the
 clouds with great power and glory.
13:27 And then he will send his angels, and will assemble his
 elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth
 to the uttermost part of heaven.
13:28 Now learn a parable of the fig-tree: When its branch is
 yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is
 near:
13:29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come
 to pass, know that it is nigh, [even] at the doors.
13:30 Verily I say to you, that this generation shall not pass,
 till all these things shall be done.
13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not
 pass away.
13:32 But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no not the
 angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
13:33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the
 time is.
13:34 [For the son of man is] as a man taking a long journey,
 who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to
 every man his work; and commanded the porter to watch.
13:35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the
 house cometh, at evening, or at midnight, or at the
 cock-crowing, or in the morning:
13:36 Lest coming suddenly, he should find you sleeping.
13:37 And what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.
14:1 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.
14:2 But they said, Not on the feast-[day], lest there should be
 an uproar of the people.
14:3 And being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as
 he sat at table, there came a woman having an alabaster box of
 ointment of spikenard, very precious; and she broke the box,
 and poured [it] on his head.
14:4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves,
 and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
14:5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred
 pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured
 against her.
14:6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath
 wrought a good work on me.
14:7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whenever ye will
 ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
14:8 She hath done what she could: she is come beforehand to
 anoint my body to the burying.
14:9 Verily I say to you, Wherever this gospel shall be preached
 throughout the whole world, [this] also that she hath done
 shall be spoken of, for a memorial of her.
14:10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief
 priests, to betray him to them.
14:11 And when they heard [it], they were glad, and promised to
 give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray
 him.
14:12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed
 the passover, his disciples said to him, Where wilt thou that
 we go and prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?
14:13 And he sendeth two of his disciples, and saith to them, Go
 ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a
 pitcher of water: follow him.
14:14 And wherever he shall go in, say ye to the master of the
 house, The Master saith, Where is the guest-chamber, where I
 may eat the passover with my disciples?
14:15 And he will show you a large upper room furnished [and]
 prepared: there make ready for us.
14:16 And his disciples went, and came into the city, and found
 as he had said to them: and they made ready the passover.
14:17 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
14:18 And as they sat, and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say
 to you, One of you who eateth with me, will betray me.
14:19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by
 one, [Is] it I? and another [said], [Is] it I?
14:20 And he answered and said to them, [It is] one of the
 twelve that dippeth with me in the dish.
14:21 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written concerning
 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.
14:22 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed,
 and broke [it], and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is
 my body.
14:23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave
 [it] to them: and they all drank of it.
14:24 And he said to them, This is my blood of the new
 testament, which is shed for many.
14:25 Verily I say to 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.
14:26 And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the mount
 of Olives.
14:27 And Jesus saith to them, All ye will be offended because
 of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd,
 and the sheep shall be scattered.
14:28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into
 Galilee.
14:29 But Peter said to him, Although all shall be offended, yet
 [will] not I.
14:30 And Jesus saith to him, Verily I say to thee, that this
 day, [even] in this night, before the cock shall crow twice,
 thou wilt deny me thrice.
14:31 But he spoke the more vehemently, If I should die with
 thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they
 all.
14:32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and
 he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.
14:33 And he taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and
 began to be greatly amazed, and to be very heavy;
14:34 And saith to them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful to
 death: tarry ye here, and watch.
14:35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and
 prayed that, If it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
14:36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things [are] possible to
 thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless, not what I
 will, but what thou wilt.
14:37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith to
 Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldst not thou watch one hour?
14:38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The
 spirit truly [is] ready, but the flesh [is] weak.
14:39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spoke the same
 words.
14:40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again (for
 their eyes were heavy:) neither knew they what to answer him.
14:41 And he cometh the third time, and saith to 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.
14:42 Rise, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
14:43 And immediately while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas,
 one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords
 and staffs, from the chief priests, and the scribes, and the
 elders.
14:44 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.
14:45 And as soon as he was come, he goeth immediately to him,
 and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.
14:46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.
14:47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a
 servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
14:48 And Jesus answered and said to them, Have ye come out, as
 against a thief, with swords and [with] staffs to take me?
14:49 I was daily with you in the temple, teaching, and ye took
 me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.
14:50 And they all forsook him, and fled.
14:51 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.
14:52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.
14:53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him
 were assembled all the chief priests, and the elders and the
 scribes.
14:54 And Peter followed him at a distance, even into the palace
 of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed
 himself at the fire.
14:55 And the chief priests, and all the council sought for
 testimony against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.
14:56 For many bore false testimony against him, but their
 testimony agreed not together.
14:57 And there arose certain, and bore false testimony against
 him, saying,
14:58 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.
14:59 But neither so did their testimony agree together.
14:60 And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked
 Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these
 testify against thee?
14:61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the
 high priest asked him, and said to him, Art thou the Christ,
 the Son of the Blessed?
14:62 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.
14:63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What
 need we any further witnesses?
14:64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all
 condemned him to be guilty of death.
14:65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and
 to buffet him, and to say to him, Prophesy: and the servants
 struck him with the palms of their hands.
14:66 And as Peter was below in the palace, there cometh one of
 the maids of the high priest:
14:67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon
 him, and said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
14:68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither do I understand
 what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock
 crowed.
14:69 And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that
 stood by, This is [one] of them.
14:70 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 Galilean, and thy speech agreeth [thereto].
14:71 But he began to curse and to swear, [saying], I know not
 this man of whom ye speak.
14:72 And the second time the cock crowed. And Peter called to
 mind the word that Jesus said to him, Before the cock shall
 crow twice, thou wilt deny me thrice. And when he thought
 thereon, he wept.
15:1 And forthwith 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.
15:2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he
 answering, said to him, Thou sayest [it].
15:3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he
 answered nothing.
15:4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing?
 behold how many things they testify against thee.
15:5 But Jesus yet answered nothing: so that Pilate marveled.
15:6 Now at [that] feast he released to them one prisoner, whom
 they desired.
15:7 And there was [one] named Barabbas, [who lay] bound with
 them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed
 murder in the insurrection.
15:8 And the multitude crying aloud, began to desire [him to do]
 as he had ever done to them.
15:9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release to
 you the King of the Jews?
15:10 (For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for
 envy.)
15:11 But the chief priests moved the people that he should
 rather release Barabbas to them.
15:12 And Pilate answered, and said again to them, What will ye
 then that I shall do [to him] whom ye call the King of the
 Jews?
15:13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
15:14 Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil hath he done? And
 they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
15:15 And [so] Pilate, willing to content the people, released
 Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to
 be crucified.
15:16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called
 Pretorium; and they call together the whole band;
15:17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of
 thorns, and put it about his [head],
15:18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
15:19 And they struck him on the head with a reed, and spit upon
 him, and bowing [their] knees, worshiped him.
15:20 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.
15:21 And they constrain one Simon, a Cyrenian, who was passing
 by, coming from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus,
 to bear his cross.
15:22 And they bring him to the place Golgotha, which is, being
 interpreted, The place of a skull.
15:23 And they gave him to drink, wine mingled with myrrh: but
 he received [it] not.
15:24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments,
 casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
15:25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
15:26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over,
 THE KING OF THE JEWS.
15:27 And with him they crucify two thieves, the one on his
 right hand, and the other on his left.
15:28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was
 numbered with the transgressors.
15:29 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,
15:30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
15:31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking, said among
 themselves with the scribes, He saved others, himself he cannot
 save.
15:32 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.
15:33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over
 the whole land, until the ninth hour.
15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice,
 saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama, sabacthani? which is, being
 interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
15:35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard [it],
 said, Behold, he calleth Elijah.
15:36 And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put
 [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let
 us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.
15:37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and expired.
15:38 And the vail of the temple was rent in two, from the top
 to the bottom.
15:39 And when the centurion who stood over against him, saw
 that he so cried out, and expired, he said, Truly this man was
 the Son of God.
15:40 There were also women looking on at a distance, among whom
 was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger,
 and of Joses, and Salome;
15:41 Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and
 ministered to him; and many other women who came with him to
 Jerusalem.
15:42 And now, when the evening was come, (because it was the
 preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath)
15:43 Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counselor, who also
 waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly to
 Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.
15:44 And Pilate wondered if he was already dead: and calling
 the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.
15:45 And when he knew [it] from the centurion, he gave the body
 to Joseph.
15:46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped
 [him] in the linen, and laid him in a sepulcher which was hewn
 out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulcher.
15:47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses, beheld
 where he was laid.
16:1 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.
16:2 And very early in the morning, the first [day] of the week,
 they came to the sepulcher at the rising of the sun:
16:3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll away for us
 the stone from the door of the sepulcher?
16:4 (And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled
 away) for it was very great.
16:5 And entering into the sepulcher, they saw a young man
 sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and
 they were frightened.
16:6 And he saith to them, Be not frightened: ye seek Jesus of
 Nazareth, who was crucified: he is risen; he is not here:
 behold the place where they laid him:
16:7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter, that he goeth before
 you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said to you.
16:8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulcher; for
 they trembled, and were amazed: neither said they any thing to
 any [man]; for they were afraid.
16:9 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 demons.
16:10 [And] she went and told them that had been with him, as
 they mourned and wept.
16:11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had
 been seen by her, believed not.
16:12 After that, he appeared in another form to two of them, as
 they were walking and going into the country.
16:13 And they went and told [it] to the residue: neither
 believed they them.
16:14 Afterward he appeared to the eleven, as they sat at table,
 and upbraided them with their unbelief, and hardness of heart,
 because they believed not them who had seen him after he was
 risen.
16:15 And he said to them, Go ye into all the world, and preach
 the gospel to every creature.
16:16 He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved; but he
 that believeth not shall be damned.
16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name
 shall they cast out demons; they shall speak in new languages;
16:18 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.
16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken to them, he was received
 up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord
 working with [them], and confirming the word with signs
 following. Amen.
