Then Josnt her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to put her to public shame, was resolved to divorce her quietly.

But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

but did not know her until she had borne a son. And he called his name Jesus.

"A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, refusing to be comforted, because they are no more."

But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

"It has also been said, 'Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.'

But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, causes her to become an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and served him.

And behold, they cried out, "What have you to do with us, O Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

Now a herd of many swine was feeding at some distance from them.

And the demons begged him, "If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine."

And he said to them, "Go." So they came out and went into the swine; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and perished in the water.

While he was saying these things to them, behold, a ruler came and knelt before him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her and she will live."

Jesus turned, and when he saw her he said, "Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that moment.

But when the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took her by the hand, and the girl arose.

For I have come to set a man 'against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' But wisdom is justified by her deeds."

I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.

The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here.

The queen of the South will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.

And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers!

because John had said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."

so that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.

Prompted by her mother, she said, "Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist."

And the king was sorry; but, because of his oaths and his guests, he commanded it to be given to her;

And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.

They said to him, "We have only five loaves here and two fish."

He said, "Bring them here to me,"

But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, "Send her away, for she is crying out after us."

Then Jesus answered her, "O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."

And Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make here three tabernaclesone for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

Then Jesus answered, "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to me."

So he said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you."

They said to him, "Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?"

And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle, and said to them, 'Why have you been standing here idle all day?'

Then the mother of Zebedee's sons came to him with her sons and, kneeling down, asked something of him.

And he said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom."

saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.

And he said to him, 'Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?' And he was speechless.

Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her."

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you! How often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!

But he answered them, "You see all these things, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down."

Then if any one says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it.

So if they say to you, 'There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, 'Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it.

So I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is yours.'

Truly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her."

Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, "Sit here while I go over there and pray."

Then he said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with me."

Jesus said to him, "Friend, why are you here?" Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him.

He is not here; for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.

Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.

So he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and immediately the fever left her. And she served them.

And he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Come here."

And he looked at those who sat in a circle around him, and said, "Here are my mother and my brothers!

Now a large herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside.

So he gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered the swine; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and were drowned in the sea.

and pleaded earnestly with him, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and live."

And immediately the bleeding stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.

But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before him in fear and trembling and told him the whole truth.

And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your disease."

He took her by the hand and said to her, "Talitha cumi!" which means, "Little girl, I say to you, arise."

He strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.

Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are not his sisters here with us?" And they took offense at him.

For Herod himself had sent and had John arrested, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

And he vowed to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom."

So she went out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask?" And she said, "The head of John the Baptist!"

And the king was exceedingly sorry; but, because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by birth. And she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

And he said to her, "Let the children first be fed, for it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

Then he said to her, "For this saying you may go your way; the demon has left your daughter."

She went home, and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.

And his disciples answered him, "How can one feed these men with bread here in the desert?"

And he said to them, "Truly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God come with power."

And Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. And let us make three tabernaclesone for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

They said, "Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to put her away."

So he said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.

And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery."

If anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.'"

And the second took her, and he died; leaving behind no children. And the third likewise.

So the seven had her and left no children. Last of all the woman died also.

In the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as wife."

For they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in everythingall she had to live on."

And Jesus said to him, "Do you see all these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down."

Then if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or, 'Look, he is there!' do not believe it.

For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they criticized her sharply.

But Jesus said, "Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me.

And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her."

They went to a place which was called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I pray."

And he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; stay here, and watch."

But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.

And when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe it.

In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah; and he had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

The angel went to her and said, "Hail, O highly favored one, the Lord is with you!"

But she was greatly troubled at his saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be.

And the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.

And the angel answered her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.

And behold, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

Then Mary said, "Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her.
