But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?

But Jesus answered them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,

Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples,

Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.

Jesus answered them, "Be careful that no one leads you astray.

And it happened, when Jesus had finished all these words, that he said to his disciples,

They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit, and kill him.

Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? Because she has done a good work for me.

Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?"

The disciples did as Jesus commanded them, and they prepared the Passover.

As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; this is my body."

Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

Jesus said to him, "Truly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times."

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

Immediately he came to Jesus, and said, "Hail, Rabbi." and kissed him.

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

And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high priest, and struck off his ear.

Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place, for all those who take the sword will die by the sword.

In that hour Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you did not arrest me.

Those who had taken Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.

Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus so they could put him to death;

But Jesus held his peace. The high priest answered him, "I adjure you by the living God, that you tell us whether you are the Messiah, the Son of God."

Jesus said to him, "You have said it. Nevertheless, I tell you, after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of the sky."

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him, saying, "You were also with Jesus, the Galilean."

And when he had gone out onto the porch, another girl saw him, and said to those who were there, "This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth."

Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." He went out and wept bitterly.

Now when morning had come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus was condemned, felt remorse, and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus said to him, "So you say."

When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Messiah?"

Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

Pilate said to them, "What then shall I do to Jesus, who is called Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified."

Then he released to them Barabbas, but Jesus he flogged and delivered to be crucified.

Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him.

They set up over his head the accusation against him written, "THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS."

About the ninth hour Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" That is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

And Jesus shouted again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.

Now the centurion, and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, "Truly this was the Son of God."

Many women were there watching from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him.

When evening had come, a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself was also Jesus' disciple came.

This man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up.

The angel answered the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus, who has been crucified.

And suddenly Jesus met them, saying, "Rejoice." They came and took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.

Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see me."

But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had sent them.

Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.

The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

And it happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God,

Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men."

saying, "What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."

And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."

But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.

And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven you."

And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, said to them, "Why do you reason these things in your hearts?

It happened, that he was reclining at the table in his house, and many tax collectors and sinners sat down with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.

And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, "Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

And Jesus said to them, "Can the groomsmen fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

And Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples, and a great crowd followed from Galilee, and from Judea,

And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,

and crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me."

They came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid.

So he went his way, and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him, and everyone marveled.

And when Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great crowd was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.

having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd, and touched his clothes.

And immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd, and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"

But Jesus, overhearing the message spoken, said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not be afraid, only believe."

Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own house."

Then the apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.

Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that I am?"

After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.

Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.

Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them any more, except Jesus only.

Jesus said to him, "'If you can?' All things are possible to him who believes."

When Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again."

But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.

But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

But Jesus said, "For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.

But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me. Do not forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one?God.

Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross."

Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God."

The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, "Children, how hard is it to enter into the Kingdom of God.

Jesus, looking at them, said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God."

Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,

They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.

But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

They said to him, "We are able." Jesus said to them, "You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;

Jesus summoned them, and said to them, "You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me."

Jesus stood still, and said, "Call him." They called the blind man, saying to him, "Cheer up. Get up. He is calling you."

He, casting away his cloak, jumped up, and came to Jesus.

Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said to him, "Rabboni, that I may see again."

Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight, and followed him on the road.

They said to them just as Jesus had said, and they let them go.

They brought the young donkey to Jesus, and threw their garments on it, and Jesus sat on it.

Jesus told it, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." and his disciples heard it.
