But the Pharisees, having heard, said, He casts not out demons, but by Beelzebub, ruler of demons.

And Jesus knowing their reflections, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.

He not being with me is against me; and he not gathering with me; scatters.

For this I say to you, All sin and blasphemy shall be let go to men; but the blasphemy of the Spirit shall not be let go to men.

And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be remitted to him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be let go to him, neither in this time, nor that about to be.

And when the unclean spirit has gone out from a man, he passes through sterile places, seeking rest, and finds not.

And others fell upon rocky places where it had not much earth, and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no depth of earth.

And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and for the not having a root, it was dried up.

And having answered, he said to them, For to you it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it was not given.

For whoever has shall be given to him, and he shall have in excess; and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him.

For this I speak to them in parables: for seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

And the prophecy of Esaias is filled up in them, saying, In hearing shall ye hear, and not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive.

For verily I say to you, that many prophets and just desired eagerly to see what ye see, and saw not; and to hear what ye hear, and heard not.

Every one hearing, and not understanding, the evil one comes, and carries off that sown in his heart. This is he having sown by the way.

And the servants of the master of the house having come, said to him, Lord, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field whence therefore has it tares?

All these things spake Jesus in parables to the crowds; and without a parable spake he not to them.

Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a large sweep-net, cast into the sea, and having gathered of every kind:

Is not this the son of the carpenter? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then to him all these?

And they were scandalized in him. And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not unhonoured, except in his native land, and in his house.

And he did not many powers there, because of their unbelief.

For John said to him, It is not lawful for thee to have her:

But Jesus said to them, They have no need to depart; give ye them to eat.

And they say to him, We have not here but five loaves, and two fishes.

And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking upon the sea.

And quickly Jesus spake to them, saying, Take courage; I am; be not afraid.

Wherefore do thy disciples pass by the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

And should not honour his father or his mother. And ye have annulled the command of God by your tradition.

Not that coming into the mouth pollutes the man; but that going forth out of the mouth, this pollutes the man.

And having answered, he said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father has not planted, shall be rooted up.

Do ye not yet understand, that everything going into the mouth proceeds to the belly, and is cast out in the privy?

These are the things polluting a man: but to eat with unwashed hands pollutes not a man.

And he answered her not a word. And his disciples, having come, asked him, saying, Loose her; for she cries out after us.

And he, having answered, said, I was not sent except to the sheep having been lost, of the house of Israel.

And he, having answered, said, It is not good to take the children's bread, and cast it to the little dogs.

And Jesus having called his disciples, said, I feel compassion for the crowd, for already they remain with me three days, and they have nothing they could eat: and I will not leave them fasting, lest they be relaxed in the way.

Do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of five thousand, and how many baskets ye took?

How do ye not understand that I spake not to you concerning bread, to keep from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

Then understood they that he spake, not to keep from the leaven of bread, but from the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And Jesus, having answered, said to him, Happy art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood has not revealed to thee, but my Father, he in the heavens.

And I say to thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock will I build my church; and the gates of hell shall not overcome her.

And Peter having taken him, began to reproach him, saying, Be propitious to thyself, Lord: this shall not be to thee.

And having turned, he said to Peter, Retire behind me, Satan: thou art an offence, to me: for thou hast not in mind the things of God, but the things of men.

Verily I say to you, Some are standing here, who should not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

And Jesus, having come, touched them, and said, Be raised, and be not afraid.

And I say to you, That Elias has already come, and they knew him not, but did by him whatever they would. So also the Son of man is about to suffer by them.

And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.

Then the disciples having come to Jesus apart, said, Why could not we cast it out?

But this kind goes not forth but by prayer and fasting.

And they having come to Capernaum, they taking double drachmas came to Peter and said, Does not your teacher pay double drachmas?

But that we should not scandalize them, having gone to the sea, cast a fish hook, and lift up the fish coming up first, and having opened its mouth, thou shalt find a gold coin: having taken that, give to them for me and thee.

And said, Truly I say to you, Except ye be turned, and become as young children, ye should not come into the kingdom of the heavens.

See that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, That their messengers in the heavens always behold the face of my Father which is in the heavens.

What does it seem to you? if there be to any man a hundred sheep, and one of them have been led astray, does he not, having left the ninety-nine upon the mountains, having gone, seek the one led astray?

And if it be found, truly I say to you, he rejoices more over it, than over the ninety-nine not led astray.

So is not the will of your Father, he in the heavens, that one of these little ones be lost.

But if he hear thee not, take with thee yet one or two, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word might stand.

And Jesus says to him, I say not to thee, till seven times; but till seventy times seven.

And he not having to give back, his lord ordered him to be sold, and his wife and his children, and all which he had also to be given back.

. And he would not; but having departed he cast him into prison till he should give back that being owed.

Oughtest thou not also to pity thy fellow-servant, as I also pitied thee

So also will my heavenly Father do to you, if ye let not go each to his brother from your hearts their falls.

And having answered, he said to them, Have ye not read, that he having made from the beginning, made them male and female,

So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has yoked together, let not man separate.

He says to them that Moses for your hard heart permitted you to loose your wives: and from the beginning it was not so.

His disciples say to him, If the cause of a man is so with the woman, it is not profitable to marry.

And he said to them, All have not room for this word, but to whom it is given.

But Jesus said, Let go the young children, and hinder them not, to come to me: for of such is the kingdom of the heavens.

He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, thus: Thou shalt not murder; Thou shalt not commit adultery; Thou shalt not steal; Thou shalt not bear false witness;

And he, having answered, said to one of them, Friend, I injure thee not; didst not thou agree with me for a drachma?

Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my things? Or is thine eye evil because I am good

And Jesus having answered, said, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink the cup which I am about to drink, and be immersed with the immersion which I am immersed? They say to him, We can.

And he says to them, Truly my cup shall ye drink, and with the immersion which I am immersed shall ye be immersed; but to sit on my right, and on my left, is not mine to give, but to those it was prepared for by my Father.

But it shall not be so among you; but whoever should wish to be great among you, let him be your attendant;

As the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his soul a ransom for many.

And if any one say to you, Why? ye shall say, That the Lord has need of them; and quickly will he send them.

And Jesus, having answered, said to them, Truly I say to you, if ye have faith, and be not removed, ye shall do not only that of the fig tree, but also to this mountain, if ye should say, Be thou lifted up, and cast into the sea, it shall be.

The baptism of John, whence was it of heaven or of men And they reasoned by themselves, saying, If we say, Of heaven; he will say to us, Why, then, believed ye him not?

And having answered Jesus, they said, We know not. And he said to them, Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these.

And he, having answered, said, I will not; but afterward, having felt regret, he departed.

And having come to the second, he said likewise. And he, having answered, said, I, Lord: and he departed not.

For John came to you in the way of justice, and ye believed him not: and the publicans and harlots believed him; and ye, seeing, repented not afterwards, to believe him.

And he sent his servants to those having been called to the nuptial feast: and they would not come.

And they, not having heeded, departed, one truly to his own field, and one to his traffic:

Then says he to his servants, Truly the nuptial feast is prepared, and those called were not worthy.

And the king, having come in to behold the reclining, saw there a man not clad with the garment of the wedding:

And he says to him, Friend, how camest thou in here, not having a garment of the nuptial feast? And he was muzzled.

And they send to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, and care is to thee for none; for thou lookest not to the face of men.

Therefore say to us, What seems to thee Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

Saying, Teacher, Moses said, If any one die, not having children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.

And Jesus, having answered, said to them, Ye are led astray, not having known the writings, nor the power of God.

And for the rising up of the dead, read ye not that spoken by God, saying,

I am God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

Therefore all whatever they say to you to keep, keep and do; and according to their works do not, for they say and do not.

For they bind loads heavy and difficult to carry, and put upon men's shoulders; and with their fingers will they not move them.

And be ye not called Rabbi: for one is your guide, Christ; and all ye are brethren.

And call not your father upon earth: for one is your Father, which in the heavens.

Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye lock up the kingdom of the heavens before men: for ye come not in yourselves, neither those coming in, permit ye to come in.

Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye exact tenths and dill and cummin, and ye have left the weightier things of the law, judgment, and mercy, and faith: these it was necessary to do, and not to let go those.

Blind guides, straining a gnat, and swallowing down a camel.
