and saying, Lord, my boy has been laid down in the house, paralyzed, extremely tormented.

for I am a man under authority, having soldiers under my command: I bid this man, go, and he's gone: another, come, and he's here: and to my servant, do this, and it is done.

And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

And when Jesus had come to Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law laid down and in a fever;

So they went to Him and woke Him up, and said, "Lord, save us; we are going down!"

and they roar'd out, Jesus, thou son of God, what injury have we done you? are you come here to torment us before the time?

And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

The herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, including what had happened to the men under the power of demons.

And the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and as soon as they saw Him, they begged Him to leave their region.

And Jesus, getting into a boat, crossed over the Sea of Galilee and came to [Capernaum] His own city.

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

But when He heard this, He said, “Those who are well don’t need a doctor, but the sick do.

Then John's disciples came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don't fast?"

While He was saying these things to them, a ruler (synagogue official) entered [the house] and kneeled down and worshiped Him, saying, “My daughter has just now died; but come and lay Your hand on her, and she will live.”

When Jesus came to the ruler’s house, and saw the flute players [who were professional, hired mourners] and the [grieving] crowd making an uproar,

Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it done unto you.

Then their eyes were opened. And assuming a stern tone Jesus said to them, "Be careful to let no one know."

When the evil spirit was driven out [by Jesus] the [former] deaf-mute began to speak, and the crowds marveled, saying, "No one in Israel has ever seen this done before."

And Jesus was going up and down all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the reign, and healing every sickness and every malady among the people.

But, seeing the multitudes, he was moved with compassion concerning them, because they were torn and thrown down, like sheep hating no shepherd.

Jesus sent out these twelve, instructing them: “Do not go among the Gentiles, and do not go into a city of the Samaritans;

Don’t take along gold, silver, or copper for your money-belts.

Don’t take a traveling bag for the road, or an extra shirt, sandals, or a walking stick, for the worker is worthy of his food.

And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

Whoever does not welcome you, nor listen to your message, as you leave that house or city, shake the dust [of it] off your feet [in contempt, breaking all ties].

I assure you and most solemnly say to you, it will be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that city [since it rejected the Messiah’s messenger].

But when they hand you over, don’t worry about how or what you should speak. For you will be given what to say at that hour,

“When they persecute you in one city [because of your faith in Me], flee to the next; for I assure you and most solemnly say to you, you will not finish going through all the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

“Therefore, don’t be afraid of them, since there is nothing covered that won’t be uncovered and nothing hidden that won’t be made known.

Don’t fear those who kill the body but are not able to kill the soul; rather, fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

So don’t be afraid therefore; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Don’t assume that I came to bring peace on the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

Now when John heard in prison about the deeds Christ had done, he sent his disciples to ask a question:

"if we play a merry tune, you are not for dancing; if we act a mournful part, you are not in the humour."

Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not:

Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

Yea, Father, because this way it was done pleasing in thy sight.

Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.

For my yoke is easy, and my bur den is light.

But if these words had been in your minds, My desire is for mercy and not for offerings, you would not have been judging those who have done no wrong.

He answered them, "Which one of you who has [only] one sheep, and it fell in a ditch, would not reach down and lift it out [even] if it were on a Sabbath day?

A bruised reed shall he not break down, and smoking flax shall he not quench, until he break forth in judgment for victory.

And having knowledge of their thoughts he said to them, Every kingdom having division in itself is made waste, and every town or house having division in itself will come to destruction.

Then off it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and settle down there. As a result, that man’s last condition is worse than the first. That’s how it will also be with this evil generation.”

And that same day Jesus went out from the house and sat down by the sea.

And great crowds were gathered together to him, so that going on board ship himself he sat down, and the whole crowd stood on the shore.

And in his sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things came and swallowed them down.

Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don't see, and hearing, they don't hear, neither do they understand.

He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

"Again the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a draw-net let down into the sea, which encloses fish of all sorts.

Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

And when He came to His home town [i.e., Nazareth], Jesus taught people in their synagogues to their amazement. They said, "Where did this man get [such] wisdom and [the ability to perform] these supernatural deeds?

and his sisters, don't they live just by us? how came he then by all this?

And they were led to doubt His true identity. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet does not go without being honored, except in His own home town and among His own family members."

told his servants, "This is John the Baptist! He has been raised from the dead, and that's why these miracles are being done by him."

Under pressure because of his promises and his assembled guests, the king ordered that it be done.

“They don’t need to go away,” Jesus told them. “You give them something to eat.”

They told him, "We don't have anything here except five loaves of bread and two fish."

He said, Bring them hither to me. And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass;

And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

When He had done this, He climbed the hill to pray in solitude. Night came on, and he was there alone.

Shortly before dawn, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.

Immediately Jesus spoke to them. “Have courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”

And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

But when he saw the wind he was in fear and, starting to go down, he gave a cry, saying, Help, Lord.

And when they had got into the boat, the wind went down.

and the men on board fell down before him and said, "You are indeed God's Son."

“Why do Your disciples violate the tradition (religious laws) handed down by the [Jewish] elders? For Your disciples do not [ceremonially] wash their hands before they eat.”

He replied to them, “Why also do you violate the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition [handed down by the elders]?

he is not to honor his father or his mother [by helping them with their need].’ So by this you have invalidated the word of God [depriving it of force and authority and making it of no effect] for the sake of your tradition [handed down by the elders].

but it is in vain they worship Me, while they lay down precepts which are mere human rules.'"

“Don’t you realize that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and is eliminated?

But she came [and] knelt down before him, saying, "Lord, help me!"

Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it done unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that hour.

And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.

And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

Now Jesus summoned His disciples and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they’ve already stayed with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry; otherwise they might collapse on the way.”

And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

and at dawn you say, 'It will storm today, for the sky is red and lowering.' You know how to discern the look of the sky, but the signs of the times you cannot read.

Knowing this, Jesus asked them, "You who have little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves the fact that you don't have any bread?

Don’t you understand yet? Don’t you remember the five loaves for the 5,000 and how many baskets you collected?

Why is it you don’t understand that when I told you, ‘Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees,’ it wasn’t about bread?”

Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him, saying, "Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you."

what advantage is it to a man to gain the whole world at the price of his life? or what would not a man pay down to preserve his life?

For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory and majesty of His Father with His angels, and then He will repay each one in accordance with what he has done.

Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is so good for us to be here. If you wish, I will build three [small] shelters here, one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah." [Note: Perhaps Peter wanted to provide quarters for the three to stay temporarily, thus prolonging the wonderful experience. In any event, he should not have done what suggested that Moses and Elijah were equal to Jesus].

And [when] the disciples heard [this], they fell down on their faces and were extremely frightened.

Then Jesus came up, touched them, and said, “Get up; don’t be afraid.”

And lifting up their eyes, they saw no man, but Jesus only. And as they came down from the mountain,

And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.

And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,

kneeling down to him, and saying, Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is lunatic, and suffereth grievously; for often he falleth into the fire and often into the water.

However, so that we do not offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take it and give it to them [to pay the temple tax] for you and Me.”

“See that you don’t look down on one of these little ones, because I tell you that in heaven their angels continually view the face of My Father in heaven.

Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

Jesus said to him, "I don't tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.
