Seeing the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them, at about the fourth watch of the night (3:00-6:00 a.m.) He came to them, walking on the sea. And [acted as if] He intended to pass by them.

but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost and shrieked aloud ??50 for they all saw him and were terrified. Then he spoke to them at once; "Courage," he said, "it is I, have no fear."

For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.

And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.

because they did not understand concerning the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.

And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,

And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.

And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.

And there were gathered unto Him the pharisees, and some of the scribes, from Jerusalem;

And they saw that some of his disciples were eating their bread with unclean--that is, unwashed--hands.

And when they returned from the open shopping markets they refused to eat [anything] until they washed themselves [or "it," that is, the food, thoroughly]. There were also many other traditions which they [strictly] observed, like washing cups, pots and copper kettles [thoroughly].) [Note: The most accurate Greek manuscripts do not add "and beds" in this verse].

And when he entered into a house from the multitude, his disciples were questioning him about the simile,

And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had difficulty speaking, and they were imploring him that he would place his hand on him.

And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.

And he charged them that they may tell no one, but the more he was charging them, the more abundantly they were proclaiming it,

And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

At that time, as the company were very numerous, and had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples, and said,

If I were to send them home hungry, they would faint on the way, some of them having come a great distance."

They also had a few small fish, and when He had blessed them, He said these were to be served as well.

So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.

And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.

The Pharisees and Sadducees [i.e., these were strict sects of the Jewish religion], came out and began disputing with Jesus, asking for a [supernatural] sign from Him, [in an attempt] to test Him.

Then Jesus ordered them, saying, "Pay attention and watch out for the leavening [effect] of the Pharisees and Herod." [Note: By "Herod" is probably meant the Herodians, who were a party favorable to King Herod and, along with the Pharisees and Sadducees, were out to get Jesus. See Matt. 16:6].

and they were reasoning with one another, saying -- 'Because we have no loaves.'

He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, "What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?

He again asked, "And when the seven loaves were divided among the four thousand persons, how many large basketfuls of broken pieces did you gather up?" And they said to Him, "Seven large basketfuls."

And he looked up and said, "I see the men; For I see them walk as they were trees."

and His clothes were shining as white as white could be, yea, whiter than any earthly bleacher could bleach them.

And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.

For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.

And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.

And they laid hold on that saying, questioning one with another, What meaneth, Till he were risen from the dead?

And they were questioning him, saying, that the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first.

But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they have done to him whatever they were pleased to do, even as the Writings say about him.

And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

And he asked, What were you disputing about with them?

and wheresoever it taketh him, it dasheth him down: and he foameth, and grindeth his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast it out; and they were not able.

Then Jesus, seeing that the multitude were running up to him, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter into him no more.

And it came out, screaming and convulsing [him] greatly, and he became as if [he were] dead, so that most [of them] said, "He has died!"

And he having come into the house, his disciples were questioning him by himself -- 'Why were we not able to cast it forth?'

And having gone forth thence, they were passing through Galilee, and he did not wish that any may know,

But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house he asked them, What were ye reasoning on the way?

and they were silent, for with one another they did reason in the way who is greater;

And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

And if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it were better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having both hands to go into hell, into the fire that never will be quenched:

For every one shall be as it were salted by fire, and every sacrifice shall be seasoned as with salt.

And Pharisees coming near were questioning him - whether it is allowed a husband to divorce a wife, testing him.

And he said to them in answer, What did Moses say you were to do?

And, coming into the house again, the disciples, concerning this, were questioning him;

And they were bringing unto him little children, that he should touch them: and the disciples rebuked them.

And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?

And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,

The other ten, hearing of it, were at first highly indignant with James and John.

Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus, his disciples, and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus (that is, the son of Timaeus) was sitting by the road.

and many were rebuking him, that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, 'Son of David, deal kindly with me.'

When they were nearing Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany near the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of His disciples,

So they went and found a young ass tied up at the front door of a house. They were untying it,

Some of the people who were standing there said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?”

and many did spread their garments in the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way.

And those going before and those following were crying out, saying, 'Hosanna! blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord;

And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:

and Jesus answering said to it, 'No more from thee -- to the age -- may any eat fruit;' and his disciples were hearing.

And they came to Jerusalem. And he entered into the temple [courts] [and] began to drive out those who were selling and those who were buying in the temple [courts], and overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those who were selling doves.

And the chief priests and the scribes heard it, and they sought how they might destroy him; for they feared him, because all the crowd were astonished at his doctrine.

And, as soon as it became late, they were going forth outside the city.

In the morning, as they were passing by, the disciples saw that the fig tree had withered away from the roots up.

and were saying unto him - By what authority, these things, art thou doing? And who to thee hath given this authority that, these things, thou shouldst be doing?

And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, 'If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?

But if we may say, From men,' -- they were fearing the people, for all were holding John that he was indeed a prophet;

And again he sent to them another servant; and they gave him wounds on the head, and were very cruel to him.

He sent another, and that one they killed. This happened to many others, some of whom were beaten, others killed.

And they were seeking to lay hold on him, and they feared the multitude, for they knew that against them he spake the simile, and having left him, they went away;

And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

And Jesus said to them, "Give to Caesar the things of Caesar, and to God the things of God!" And they were utterly amazed at him.

And there come Sadducees unto him, - who, indeed say - Resurrection, there is none! and they were questioning him, saying -

Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

And the second took her, and at his death there were no offspring; and the third the same:

In the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven [brothers] were married to her.”

therefore David himself saith of him Lord, and whence is he his son?' And the great multitude were hearing him gladly,

And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

On this, calling his disciples to him, Jesus said: "I tell you that this poor widow has put in more than all the others who were putting money into the chests;

And as he is sitting at the mount of the Olives, over-against the temple, Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, were questioning him by himself,

And if the Lord had not kept those days as short as they were, no one would have been saved [i.e., from the devastating destruction]. But for the sake of the elect [i.e., God's people], whom He chose, He kept those days short.

For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

Now the passover and the feast of unleavened bread was after two days. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might seize him by subtlety and kill him.

for they were saying - Not in the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.

And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

for this could have been sold for more than three hundred denaries, and given to the poor;' and they were murmuring at her.

And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

And the first day of the unleavened food, when they were killing the passover, his disciples say to him, 'Where wilt thou, that, having gone, we may prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?'

And as they sat and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you shall betray me, even he that eateth with me.

They began to be grieved and deeply distressed and to say to Him one by one, “Surely not I?”

The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.

And as they were eating, he took bread, and when he had blessed, he brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take ye: this is my body.

But he kept saying emphatically, "If it is necessary for me to die with you, I will never deny you!" And they all were saying the same [thing] also.

And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not able to stay awake one hour?

And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.
