But, when, these things, he had pondered, lo! a messenger of the Lord, by dream, appeared to him, saying, - Joseph, son of David! do not fear to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for, that which, in her, hath been begotten, is of the , Holy, Spirit.

And, thou, Bethlehem, land of Judah, by no means least, art thou, among the governors of Judah, - For, out of thee, shall one come forth to govern, Who shall shepherd my people Israel.

Now, when they had retired, lo! a messenger of the Lord, appeareth by dream unto Joseph, saying, Arise, take unto thee the child and its mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there, until I tell thee, - for Herod is about to seek the child, to destroy it.

saying - Arise! and take unto thee the child and its mother, and be journeying into the land of Israel, - for they are dead, who were seeking the life of the child.

But, he, would have hindered him, saying - I, have, need, by thee, to be immersed, - and dost, thou, come unto me?

and saith to him - If thou art God's, Son, cast thyself down, - for it is written, To his messengers, will he give charge concerning thee; and, on hands, will they bear thee up, lest once thou strike, against a stone, thy foot.

and said to him, All these things, will I give thee, - if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

If, therefore, thou be bearing thy gift towards the altar, and, there, shouldst remember that, thy brother, hath aught against thee,

Be making agreement with thine adversary, quickly, while thou art with him, in the way, - lest once thine adversary deliver thee up unto the judge, and the judge, unto the officer, and, into prison, thou be cast.

Verily, I say unto thee, In nowise, mayest thou come out from thence, until thou pay the last halfpenny.

And, if, thy right eye, is causing thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee, - for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, be cast into gehenna.

And, if, thy right hand, is causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee, - for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, into gehenna, depart.

But, I, tell you, not to resist evil, - Nay, whoever is smiting thee on the right cheek, turn to him, the other also;

And, him who is desiring thee to be judged, and to take, thy tunic, let him have, thy mantle also.

And, whoever shall impress thee one mile, go with him two:

To him who is asking thee, give; and, him who is desiring from thee to borrow, do not thou turn away.

When, therefore, thou mayest be doing an alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, just as, the hypocrites, do in the synagogues and in the streets - that they may be glorified by men, - Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

that thine alms may be in secret, - and, thy Father, who seeth in secret, will give it back to thee.

But, thou, when thou wouldest pray, enter into thy closet, and, fastening thy door, pray unto thy Father who is in secret, - and, thy Father who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

that thou do not appear, unto men, to be fasting, but to thy Father who is in secret, - and, thy Father who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

But, if thine eye be, evil, thy whole body, shall be, in the dark; - if therefore, the light which is in thee, is, darkness, the darkness, how great!

and lo! they cried aloud, saying, What have we in common with thee, O Son of God? Hast thou come hither, before the right time, to torment us?

This, is he, concerning whom it is written, - Lo! I, send my messenger before thy face, who shall make ready thy way before thee!

Alas for thee, Chorazin! Alas for thee, Bethsaida! Because, if, in Tyre and Zidon, had been done the works of power, which were done in you, of old, in sackcloth and ashes, had they repented.

And, thou, Capernaum! Unto heaven, shalt thou be uplifted? Unto hades, thou shall be brought down; because, if, in Sodom, had been done the works of power, which were done in thee, it would, in that case, have remained until this day.

Moreover, I say unto you - For the land of Sodom, more tolerable, will it be in a day of judgment, than, for thee.

In that season, answered Jesus, and said - I openly give praise unto thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, - in that thou hast hid these things from the wise and discerning, and hast revealed them unto babes;

Yea, O Father! That, so, it hath become, a delight, before thee.

Then, answered him, certain of the Scribes and Pharisees, saying, Teacher! we desire of thee, a sign, to behold.

And one said to him, Lo! thy mother and thy brethren, without, are standing, seeking, to speak, with thee.

And, making answer, Peter said unto him, - Lord! if it is, thou, bid me come unto thee, upon the waters.

Then, answering, Jesus said to her - O woman! great, is, thy faith! Be it, done, for thee, as thou desirest. And her daughter was healed, from that hour.

And Jesus, answering, said to him - Happy, art thou, Simon Bar-yona, - because, flesh and blood, revealed it not unto thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.

And, I also, unto thee, say - Thou, art Peter, - and, upon this rock, will I build my assembly, and, the gates of hades, shall not prevail against it.

I will give thee, the keys of the kingdom of the heavens, - and, whatsoever thou shalt bind upon the earth, shall be bound in the heavens, and, whatsoever thou shalt loose upon the earth, shall be loosed in the heavens.

And, taking him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying - Mercy on thee Lord! In nowise, shall, this, befall thee.

And Peter, answering, said unto Jesus - Lord! it is, delightful, for us, to be here, - If thou wilt, I will make here three tents, for thee, one, and, for Moses, one, and, for Elijah, one.

He saith - Yea. And, coming into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, How, to thee, doth it seem, Simon? The kings of the earth, of whom receive they dues or tax? from their sons, or from the aliens?

But, that we may not cause them to stumble, go unto the sea, and cast in a hook, and, the first fish that cometh up, take, and, opening its mouth, thou shalt find a shekel, - that, take, and give to them for me and thee.

But, if, thy hand or thy foot, be causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly for thee, to enter into life, maimed or lame, rather than, having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the age-abiding fire.

And, if, thine eye, causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly, for thee, one-eyed, into life, to enter, rather than, having two eyes, to be cast into the fiery gehenna.

But, if thy brother sin, withdraw, convince him, betwixt thee and him, alone, - If unto thee he hearken, thou hast gained thy brother;

But, if he do not hearken, take with thee, yet one or two, that, at the mouth of two witnesses or three, every declaration, maybe established;

But, if he hear them amiss, tell it to the assembly, - And, if, even the assembly, he hear amiss, Let him be unto thee, just as the man of the nations and the tax-collector.

Jesus saith to him - I say not unto thee, unto, seven, times, but, until seventy times seven.

The servant therefore, falling down, began to do homage unto him, saying - Have patience with me, and, all, will I pay thee.

His fellow servant, therefore, falling down, began beseeching him, saying, Have patience with me! And I will pay thee.

Then, calling him near, his master saith unto him - O wicked servant! All that debt, forgave I thee, because thou didst beseech me.

Was it not binding, upon thee also, to have mercy upon thy fellow-servant, as, I also, on thee, had mercy?

Then, making answer, Peter said unto him - Lo! we, have left all, and followed thee, - What then shall there be, for us?

And, he, answering, unto one of them, said, - Friend! I wrong thee not: Was it not, for a denary, thou didst agree with me?

Take thine own, and go thy way; but I please, unto this last, to give, as also to thee:

His lord said unto him - Well-done! good and faithful servant, - Over a few things wast thou faithful, over many things, will I appoint thee: Enter into the joy of thy lord.

His lord said unto him - Well-done! good and faithful servant, - Over a few things, wast thou faithful, over many things, will I appoint thee: Enter into the joy of thy lord.

But he also who, the one talent, had received, coming forward, said - Lord I knew thee, that thou art a, hard, man, reaping, where thou hast not sown, - and gathering, whence thou hast not winnowed;

It was binding on thee, therefore, to cast my silver into the money-changers, - and, I, when I, came, might have obtained what was mine, with interest.

Then, will the righteous answer him, saying: Lord! when, saw we thee - hungry, and fed thee, or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

And, when, saw we thee - a stranger, and took thee home, or naked, and clothed thee?

And, when, saw we thee - sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

Then, will, they also, answer, saying: Lord! when saw we thee - hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and ministered not unto thee?

And, on the first of the days of unleavened bread, the disciples came unto Jesus, saying - Where wilt thou, that we make ready for thee to eat the passover?

And, straightway, coming unto Jesus, he said - Joy to thee! Rabbi, and eagerly kissed him.

And the High-priest, arising, said unto him - Nothing, answerest thou? What are these, against thee bearing witness?

But, Jesus, was silent. And, the High-priest, said unto him: I put thee on oath, by the Living God, that, to us, thou say - Whether, thou, art the Christ, the Son of God.

saying - Prophesy unto us, O Christ! Who is he that struck thee?

Then, Pilate saith unto him - Hearest thou not how many things against thee they are bearing witness?

and a voice cameout of the heavens - Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, - In thee, I delight.

saying - What have we in common with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee, who thou art, The Holy One of God.

and found him, and say unto him - All, are seeking thee;

To thee, I say, Rise, take up thy couch, and be going thy way unto thy house.

and, crying out with a loud voice, saith - What have in common with thee? O Jesus, Son of God Most High? I adjure thee by God, - Do not torment me!

For John had been saying to Herod - It is not allowed thee, to have, the wife of thy brother.

when the daughter of this very Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those reclining together, and, the king, said unto the damsel - Ask me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee;

and he took an oath to her - Whatsoever thou shalt ask me, I will give thee, unto half my kingdom.

And Peter, answering, saith unto Jesus - Rabbi! it is, delightful, for us to be, here, - let us therefore make three tents, for thee, one, and, for Moses, one, and, for Elijah, one;

And one out of the multitude answered him - Teacher! I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;

and, many times, hath it cast him, both into fire, and into waters, that it might destroy him; but, if anything be possible to thee, help us, have compassion upon us.
