So John the Baptizer came, and was in the Desert proclaiming a baptism of the penitent for forgiveness of sins.

As for John, his garment was of camel's hair, and he wore a loincloth of leather; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan;

and a voice came from the sky, saying, "Thou art My Son dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."

Then, after John had been thrown into prison, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming God's Good News.

So they came to Capernaum, and on the next Sabbath He went to the synagogue and began to teach.

So the foul spirit, after throwing the man into convulsions, came out of him with a loud cry.

Then on leaving the synagogue they came at once, with James and John, to the house of Simon and Andrew.

When it was evening, after sunset people came bringing Him all who were sick and the demoniacs;

"Let us go elsewhere, to the neighbouring country towns," He replied, "that I may proclaim my Message there also; because for that purpose I came from God."

One day there came a leper to Jesus entreating Him, and pleading on his knees. "If you are willing," he said, "you are able to cleanse me."

But the man, when he went out, began to tell every one and to publish the matter abroad, so that it was no longer possible for Jesus to go openly into any town; but He had to remain outside in unfrequented places, where people came to Him from all parts.

and such numbers of people came together that there was no longer room for them even round the door. He was speaking His Message to them,

when there came a party of people bringing a paralytic--four men carrying him.

and from Judaea and Jerusalem and Idumaea and from beyond the Jordan and from the district of Tyre and Sidon there came to Him a vast crowd, hearing of all that He was doing.

Then He went up the hill; and those whom He Himself chose He called, and they came to Him.

Hearing of this, His relatives came to seize Him by force, for they said, "He is out of his mind."

Once more He began to teach by the side of the Lake, and a vast multitude of people came together to listen to Him. He therefore went on board the boat and sat there, a little way from the land; and all the people were on the shore close to the water.

But a heavy squall came on, and the waves were now dashing into the boat, so that it was fast filling.

At once, on His landing, there came from the tombs to meet Him a man possessed by a foul spirit.

He gave them leave; and the foul spirits came out and entered into the swine, and the herd--about 2,000 in number--rushed headlong down the cliff into the Lake and were drowned in the Lake.

The swineherds fled, and spread the news in town and country. So the people came to see what it was that had happened;

and when they came to Jesus, they beheld the demoniac quietly seated, clothed and of sane mind--the man who had had the legion; and they were awe-stricken.

When Jesus had re-crossed in the boat to the other side, a vast multitude came crowding to Him; and He was on the shore of the Lake,

when there came one of the Wardens of the Synagogue--he was called Jair--who, on beholding Him, threw himself at His feet,

heard of Jesus. And she came in the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak;

until the woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and threw herself at His feet, and told Him all the truth.

Leaving that place He came into His own country, accompanied by His disciples.

at which Herodias's own daughter came in and danced, and so charmed Herod and his guests that he said to her, "Ask me for anything you please, and I will give it to you."

The girl immediately came in, in haste, to the King and made her request. "My desire is," she said, "that you will give me, here and now, on a dish, the head of John the Baptist."

When John's disciples heard of it, they came and took away his body and laid it in a tomb.

By this time it was late; so His disciples came to Him, and said, "This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late:

Having crossed over they drew to land in Gennesaret and came to anchor.

Then the Pharisees, with certain Scribes who had come from Jerusalem, came to Him in a body.

Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by a foul spirit heard of Him, and came and flung herself at His feet.

Returning from the neighbourhood of Tyre, He came by way of Sidon to the Lake of Galilee, passing through the district of the Ten Towns.

and at once going on board with His disciples He came into the district of Dalmanutha.

So He left them, went on board again, and came away to the other side.

And they came to Bethsaida. And a blind man was brought to Jesus and they entreated Him to touch him.

Then there came a cloud spreading over them, and a voice issued from the cloud, "This is my Son, dearly loved: listen to Him."

As they came to rejoin the disciples, they saw an immense crowd surrounding them and a party of Scribes disputing with them.

So with a loud cry he threw the boy into fit after fit, and came out. The boy looked as if he were dead, so that most of them said he was dead;

So they came to Capernaum; and when in the house He asked them, "What were you arguing about on the way?"

As He went out to resume His journey, there came a man running up to Him, who knelt at His feet and asked, "Good Rabbi, what am I to do in order to inherit the Life of the Ages?"

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God."

Then James and John, the sons of Zabdi, came up to Him and said, "Rabbi, we wish you would grant us whatever request we make of you."

They came to Jericho; and as He was leaving that town--Himself and His disciples and a great crowd--Bartimaeus (the son of Timaeus)

The man flung away his outer garment, sprang to his feet, and came to Jesus.

So He came into Jerusalem and into the Temple; and after looking round upon everything there, the hour being now late He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.

But in the distance He saw a fig-tree in full leaf, and went to see whether perhaps He could find some figs on it. When however He came to it, He found nothing but leaves (for it was not fig time)

When evening came on, Jesus and His disciples used to leave the city.

They came again to Jerusalem; and as He was walking in the Temple, the High Priests, Scribes and Elders came to Him

this Cornerstone came from the Lord, and is wonderful in our esteem?'"

So they came to Him. "Rabbi," they said, "we know that you are a truthful man and you do not fear any one; for you do not recognize human distinctions, but teach God's way truly. Is it allowable to pay poll-tax to Caesar, or not?

Then came to Him a party of Sadducees, a sect which denies that there is any Resurrection; and they proceeded to question Him.

Then one of the Scribes, who had heard them disputing and well knew that Jesus had given them an answer to the point, and a forcible one, came forward and asked Him, "Which is the chief of all the Commandments?"

But there came one poor widow and dropped in two farthings, equal in value to a halfpenny.

Now when He was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the Leper, while He was at table, there came a woman with a jar of pure, sweet-scented ointment very costly: she broke the jar and poured the ointment over His head.

So the disciples went out and came to the city, and found everything just as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready.

When it was evening, He came with the Twelve.

So they came to a place called Gethsemane. There He said to His disciples, "Sit down here till I have prayed."

Then He came and found them asleep, and He said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Had you not strength to keep awake a single hour?

A third time He came, and then He said, "Sleep on and rest. Enough! the hour has come. Even now they are betraying the Son of Man into the hands of sinful men.

Immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, came and with him a crowd of men armed with swords and cudgels, sent by the High Priests and Scribes and Elders.

So he came, and going straight to Jesus he said, "Rabbi!" and kissed Him with seeming affection;

Then some came forward as witnesses and falsely declared,

Now while Peter was below in the quadrangle, one of the High Priest's maidservants came,

So the people came crowding up, asking Pilate to grant them the usual favour.

At noon there came a darkness over the whole land, lasting till three o'clock in the afternoon.

Joseph of Arimathaea came, a highly respected member of the Council, who himself also was living in expectation of the Kingdom of God. He summoned up courage to go in to see Pilate and beg for the body of Jesus.

So, very soon after sunrise on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb;

So they came out, and fled from the tomb, for they were greatly agitated and surprised; and they said not a word to any one, for they were afraid.
