John was baptising in the wilderness, and preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

Now John was clothed with a camel's hair garment, and a girdle of leather about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

And it came to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee, and was baptised of John in Jordan.

And he was in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministred unto him.

But after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God:

And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

But when the evening was come, after the sun was set, they brought unto him all that had illnesses, and the demoniacs.

And the whole city was gathered together about the door;

And he was preaching in their synagogues, through all Galilee, and casting out devils.

And as he spake, the leprosy instantly departed from him, and he was cleansed.

But he going out, began to proclaim it much, and to publish abroad an account of it, so that he could no more openly come into the city; but was without in desert places; and they came to him from all parts of the country.

AND again he entered into Capernaum after some days: and it was heard, that he was in the house;

and immediately many collected round him, so that there was no room, not even at the door; and he spake the word to them.

and not being able to come nigh him because of the crowd, they stripped off the roofing of the house where he was; and having broken a way through, they let down with ropes the couch, on which the paralytic lay.

And he was walking through the cornfields on the sabbath; and his disciples as they went on the road plucked the ears of corn.

And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he was under necessity, and was hungry, himself and they who were with him?

How he entered into the house of God to Abiathar the high-priest; and did eat the shewbread, which it was not lawful for any to eat except the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?

And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath.

AND he entered again into the synagogue; and a man was there who had a withered hand.

Then looking round about on them with indignation, exceedingly grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith to the man, Stretch out thine hand; and he stretched it out: and his hand was restored sound as the other.

AND again he began to teach by the sea side: and a vast multitude was assembled about him, so that he went into a vessel to sit down on the sea, and all the multitude was on the land close by the sea.

and when the sun arose it was scorched up; and because it had not root, it withered away.

And sending the multitude away, they took him just as he was in the vessel; and there were also some other little vessels with him.

And a great hurricane arose, and the waves broke into the vessel, so that it was now full of water:

and he was in the stern, sleeping on a pillow: and they awoke him, and say unto him, Master, is it no concern to thee that we are perishing?

And rising, he with authority charged the wind, and said to the sea, Silence! be still! And the wind subsided, and there was a great calm.

And as he was going out of the vessel, immediately there met him a man with an unclean spirit,

for he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains were burst asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces, and no man was able to master him:

and continually night and day he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, screaming, and cutting himself with stones.

And a great herd of swine was there feeding on the mountain:

Then the swineherds fled, and carried the tidings into the city and into the country. And they went out to see what was done.

And when Jesus had passed over again in the vessel to the other side, a vast multitude came together unto him; and he was by the sea side.

and had suffered much from many physicians; and had expended all she had, and was nothing better, but rather growing worse and worse;

And instantly the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was cured of her afflictive disease.

And while he was yet speaking, they came from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, Thy daughter is dead; why dost thou trouble the master any further?

And they derided him; but he thrusting them all out, took the father and the mother of the maiden, and those who were with him, and went in where the damsel was laid out.

And immediately the damsel arose and walked about, for she was twelve years old. And they were astonished with vast astonishment.

And king Herod heard it (for his name was celebrated), and he said, This is John the Baptist, he is risen from the dead, and therefore miracles are wrought by him.

And the king was exceedingly sorry; yet on account of his oath, and those who sat with him, he would not refuse her.

And Jesus, when he landed, saw a vast multitude, and was moved with companion towards them, for they were as sheep having no shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.

And when great part of the day was already gone, his disciples coming to him said, This is a desert place, and much of the day is already gone:

And when the evening was come, the vessel was in the midst of the sea, and himself alone on the land.

And he saw them greatly fatigued with 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 seemed intending to pass by them.

But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they thought it was an apparition, and screamed out:

For they reflected not upon the loaves, for their heart was hardened.

running through all parts of that country, they began to carry about on couches those who were afflicted with diseases, wherever they heard that he was.

For the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands to the wrist, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

And when he was come into the house from the multitude, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.

The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by birth, and she entreated him that the devil might be cast out of her daughter.

Then again he put his hands upon his eyes, and made him look up again: and he was entirely restored, and saw all men distinctly.

And six days after Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, only, and carrieth them up with him into an exceeding high mountain in great privacy; and was transfigured before them.

And when he was come into the house, the disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast it out?

And he came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house, he asked them, What was the subject of your dispute among yourselves on the road?

But they held their peace. For they had been disputing with each other on the road, which was the greatest.

And when he was seated, he called the twelve, and saith to them, If any man desires to be the first, let him be last of all, and servant of all.

AND arising, he went from thence into the coasts of Judea, through the country on the other side of the Jordan; and again the multitudes came together unto him; and as his custom was, he again taught them.

And they were on the road going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was advancing before them: and they were astonished; and followed him full of fear. And again taking the twelve aside, he began to tell them what things were about to befall him:

And they came to Jericho. And as he was going out of Jericho with his disciples, and a great multitude, Bartimeus, the blind, the son of Timeus, sat by the road-side begging:

and hearing that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, he began to cry out, and say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!

And on the morrow, as they were coming out of Bethany, he was hungry:

and seeing a fig-tree at a distance, full of leaves, he went to it, expecting probably that he might find some fruit upon it: and when he came to it, he found none, only leaves: for it was not a [good] season for figs.

And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders, come to him,

The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me.

this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes."

And as Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, he saw a multitude casting money into the treasury: and many who were rich cast in many [pieces].

AND as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said unto him, Master, behold what vast stones, and what structures!

And as he was sitting on the mount of Olives, opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

And when he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at table, a woman came, having an alabaster vase of ointment, of genuine spikenard, of vast value: and breaking the vase, she let it flow down upon his head.

What was in her power she hath done; she has seized the opportunity to anoint my body beforehand for burial.

And when it was evening he came with the twelve.

And immediately, while he was yet speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, came up, and a great multitude with him, with swords and staves, from the chief priests, and scribes, and elders.

Daily was I with you in the temple teaching, and ye laid no hold upon me: but [this is done] that the scriptures might be fulfilled.

And Peter followed him at a distance, until he came into the palace of the high-priest: and was seated with the servants, and warming himself at the fire.

But even then their testimony was not correspondent.

And as Peter was in the hall, at the lower end, there came to him one of the high-priest's maid-servants:

and seeing Peter warming himself, stedfastly looking at him, she said, Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

And there was one called Barabbas, bound with those who had made an insurrection with him, and had committed murder in the insurrection.

And they compel one Simon, a Cyrenian, who was passing by, coming out of the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross.

Now it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

And there was an inscription of his crime written over him, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, "And he was reckoned among the transgressors."

Now when the sixth hour came, there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

And the vail of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom.

And the centurion, who stood opposite to him, observing, that with such a cry he gave up the ghost, said, Assuredly this was the Son of God.

Now there were also women looking on at a distance; among whom also was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the small, and the mother of Joses, and Salome.

These women followed him when he was in Galilee, and supplied his wants; and many other women who went up with him to Jerusalem.

And when the evening was now come (since it was the preparation, that is the day preceding the sabbath),

Joseph, who was from Arimathea, came, a respectable person, a counsellor, and who himself also was expecting the kingdom of God; taking courage, he went in to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

And having bought a wrapper of fine linen, and taken him down, he wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a sepulchre, which was hewn out of a rock; and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre.

Now Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.

AND when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, purchased aromatics, that they might come, and anoint him.

And very early on the first day of the week, they come to the sepulchre, as the sun was rising.

And looking again, they saw that the stone was rolled away, for it was vastly large.

But he saith unto them, Be not affrighted, ye seek Jesus the Nazarean, who was crucified; he is risen, he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.

And they, when they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, gave no credit to her.

Then after this, he was manifested under another form, to two of them as they were walking, and going into the country.

Afterwards he shewed himself to the eleven, as they were sitting at table, and upbraided them for their infidelity and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen him after he was risen.

Then the Lord, after having thus spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
