And he went with him; and a great number of people went after him, and came round him.

273

And then he will send out the angels, and will get together his saints from the four winds, from the farthest part of the earth to the farthest part of heaven.

274

And they were watching him to see if he would make him well on the Sabbath day, so that they might have something against him.

275

And had seen that some of his disciples took their bread with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.

276

And he was greatly surprised because they had no faith. And he went about the country places teaching.

277

And they said to him, Moses let us give her a statement in writing, and be free from her.

278

And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.

279

And when the seven among the four thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? And they said to him, Seven.

280

But take care; see, I have made all things clear to you before the time.

281

And he gave them teaching about a number of things in the form of stories, and said to them in his teaching, Give ear:

282

And the chance came when Herod on his birthday gave a feast to his lords, and the high captains, and the chief men of Galilee;

283

When I made a division of the five cakes of bread among the five thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? They said to him, Twelve.

284

And he sent him away, saying to him very sharply,

285

For John said to Herod, It is wrong for you to have your brother's wife.

286

And he took with him Peter and James and John, and grief and great trouble came on him.

287

And those who went in front, and those who came after, were crying, Glory: A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord:

290

And in the same way, these are they who are planted on the stones, who, when the word has come to their ears, straight away take it with joy;

291

And when the Sabbath day had come, he was teaching in the Synagogue; and a number of people hearing him were surprised, saying, From where did this man get these things? and, What is the wisdom given to this man, and what are these works of power done by his hands?

292

And these are they who were planted on the good earth; such as give ear to the word, and take it into their hearts, and give fruit, thirty and sixty and a hundred times as much.

293

This was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?

294

But after I have come back from the dead, I will go before you into Galilee.

295

And when the time came, he sent a servant to get from the workmen some of the fruit of the garden.

296

But a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having had news of him, came straight away and went down at his feet.

297

And the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers which are in the heavens will be moved.

298

But he went out, and made it public, giving an account of it everywhere, so that Jesus was no longer able to go openly into a town, but was outside in the waste land; and they came to him from every part.

299

And they have no root in themselves, but go on for a time; then, when trouble comes or pain, because of the word, they quickly become full of doubts.

300

But no one is able to go into the house of the strong man and take his goods, without first putting cords round the strong man, and then he will take his goods.

301

How he went into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and took for food the holy bread, which only the priests may take, and gave it to those who were with him?

302

And said to them, Go into the little town opposite: and when you come to it, you will see a young ass with a cord round his neck, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose, and come back with him.

303

For Herod was in fear of John, being conscious that he was an upright and holy man, and kept him safe. And hearing him, he was much troubled; and he gave ear to him gladly.

304

And when he had got out of the boat, straight away there came to him from the place of the dead a man with an unclean spirit.

305

Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by birth: and she made a request to him that he would send the evil spirit out of her daughter.

307

I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;

308

And frequently it has sent him into the fire and into the water, for his destruction; but if you are able to do anything, have pity on us, and give us help.

309

And he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did, when he had need and was without food, he, and those who were with him?

311

And those who had seen it gave them an account of what had been done to him who had the evil spirits, and of the fate of the pigs.

312

And turning to them, he said to them in the form of a story, How is it possible for Satan to put out Satan?

314

And he said to the man, Get up and come forward.

315

And when he was getting into the boat, the man in whom had been the evil spirits had a great desire to come with him.

316

He who has, to him will be given: and he who has not, from him will be taken even that which he has.

317

If any man has ears, let him give ear.

318

And he took the blind man by the hand, and went with him out of the town; and when he had put water from his mouth on his eyes, and put his hands on him, he said, Do you see anything?

319

The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? give me an answer.

320

And they took him, and gave him blows, and sent him away with nothing.

321

And he went on his way, and made public in the country of Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him: and all men were full of wonder.

322

And they made answer, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but others, One of the prophets.

323

And they made a request to him to go out of their country.

324

And he said to them, Is it still not clear to you?

325

And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and did a dance, Herod and those who were at table with him were pleased with her; and the king said to the girl, Make a request for anything and I will give it you.

326

And made strong prayers to him, saying, My little daughter is near to death: it is my prayer that you will come and put your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and have life.

328

All these evil things come from inside, and make the man unclean.

329

But those workmen said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death, and the heritage will be ours.

330

But the days will come when the husband will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.

331

And while he was doing it, some was dropped by the wayside, and the birds came and took it for food.

332

But he said with passion, If I have to be put to death with you, I will not be false to you. And they all said the same.

333

Truly I say to you, I will take no more of the fruit of the vine till the day when I take it new in the kingdom of God.

334

And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? say, The Lord has need of him and will send him back straight away.

335

And they took the young ass to Jesus, and put their clothing on him, and he got on his back.

336

And he said to her, For this saying go your way; the evil spirit has gone out of your daughter.

337

And straight away Jesus was conscious that power had gone out of him; and, turning to the people, he said, Who was touching my robe?

338

And she went away to her house, and saw the child on the bed, and the evil spirit gone out.

339

And Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tents; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

340

He still had one, a dearly loved son: he sent him last to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.

341

And Jesus said to them, I will put to you one question; give me an answer, and I will say by what authority I do these things.

342

And they took the food, and had enough; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken bits.

343

And if there is division in a house, that house will come to destruction;

344

And went to sleep and got up, night and day, and the seed came to growth, though he had no idea how.

345

What then will the master of the garden do? He will come and put the workmen to death, and will give the garden into the hands of others.

346

If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.

347

And when he had gone into the house, his disciples said to him privately, Why were we unable to send it out?

348

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

349

And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.

350

The earth gives fruit by herself; first the leaf, then the head, then the full grain.

351

And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,

352

And the Pharisees said to him, Why are they doing what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?

354

And they said to them the words which Jesus had said; and they let them go.

355

And a great number put down their clothing in the way; and others put down branches which they had taken from the fields.

356

And they took him and put him to death, pushing his body out of the garden.

359

And after crying out and shaking him violently, it came out: and the child became like one dead; so that most of them said, He is dead.

360

And she came in quickly to the king, and said, My desire is that you give me straight away on a plate the head of John the Baptist.

361

And he took an oath, saying to her, Whatever is your desire I will give it to you, even half of my kingdom.

362

And straight away the king sent out one of his armed men, and gave him an order to come back with the head: and he went and took off John's head in prison,

363

And he sent another; and they put him to death: and a number of others, whipping some, and putting some to death.

364

He was living in the place of the dead: and no man was able to keep him down, no, not with a chain;

365

And there came before them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

366

Because he had frequently been prisoned in chains and iron bands, and the chains had been parted and the bands broken by him: and no man was strong enough to make him quiet.

367

But when the grain is ready, he quickly sends men to get it cut, because the time for cutting has come.

368

But she said to him in answer, Yes, Lord: even the dogs under the table take the bits dropped by the children.

369

And if Satan is at war with himself, and there is division in him, he will not keep his place but will come to an end.

370

When she had news of the things which Jesus did, went among the people coming after him, and put her hand on his robe.

371

And while they were coming down from the mountain, he gave them orders not to give word to any man of the things they had seen, till the Son of man had come back from the dead.

372

And they went away and saw a young ass by the door outside in the open street; and they were getting him loose.

373

For she said, If I may only put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.

374

And she went out and said to her mother, What is my request to be? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

375

And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives opposite the Temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew said to him privately,

376

And some of those who were there said to them, What are you doing, taking the ass?

377

But take care: for they will give you up to the Sanhedrins; and in Synagogues you will be whipped; and you will be taken before rulers and kings because of me, for a sign to them.

378

And had undergone much at the hands of a number of medical men, and had given all she had, and was no better, but even worse,

379

And he said to them, When the light comes in, do people put it under a vessel, or under the bed, and not on its table?

380

If there is division in a kingdom, that kingdom will come to destruction;

381

And they had some small fishes; and blessing them he had them put before the people in the same way.

382

And he sent him away to his house, saying, Do not even go into the town.

383

And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?

384

Because he was not certain what to say, for they were in great fear.

385

And some of those who were near, hearing it, said, See, he is crying to Elijah.

386

And when his disciples had news of it, they came and took up his body, and put it in its last resting-place.

387

And they took Jesus away to the high priest; and there came together with him all the chief priests and those in authority and the scribes.

388

Then again he put his hands on his eyes; and looking hard, he was able to see, and saw all things clearly.

389

And he put them under orders not to say this of him to anyone.

391

And the king was very sad; but because of his oaths, and those who were with him at table, he would not say 'No' to her.

392

And his disciples said to him, You see the people round you on every side, and you say, Who was touching me?

393

And he came, and saw them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, are you sleeping? were you not able to keep watch one hour?

394

Saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I see well who you are, the Holy One of God.

395

And straight away the fountain of her blood was stopped, and she had a feeling in her body that her disease had gone and she was well.

396

And he said, What picture may we give of the kingdom of God, or with what story may we make it clear?

397

And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.

398

The voice of one crying in the waste land, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his roads straight;

399

And they went out quickly from the place, because fear and great wonder had come on them: and they said nothing to anyone, because they were full of fear that ...

400

And he went out again by the seaside; and all the people came to him, and he gave them teaching.

401

And when the captain, who was near, saw how he gave up his spirit, he said, Truly this man was a son of God.

403

For Herod himself had sent men out to take John and put him in prison, because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom he had taken for himself.

404

And Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? there is not one stone here resting on another which will not be overturned.

405

And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any longer, but Jesus only with themselves.

406

And Jesus said to them, You will all be turned away from me: for it is in the Writings, I will put the keeper of the sheep to death, and the sheep will be put to flight.

407

Take care, keep watch with prayer: for you are not certain when the time will be.

408

Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.

409

And when he was by himself, those who were round him with the twelve put questions to him about the purpose of the stories.

410

And looking round on them he was angry, being sad because of their hard hearts; and he said to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and his hand was made well.

411

And came back with the head on a plate, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

412

And he said to them, Come away by yourselves to a quiet place, and take a rest for a time. Because there were a great number coming and going, and they had no time even for food.

413

And there was in their Synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he gave a cry,

414

And in the evening, at sundown, they took to him all who were diseased, and those who had evil spirits.

415

And they came again to Jerusalem: and while he was walking in the Temple, there came to him the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority:

416

And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.

418

And Jesus, when he was teaching in the Temple, said, How do the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

421

To Simon he gave the second name of Peter;

422

And straight away, while he was still talking, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great band with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority.

423

For he was giving his disciples teaching, and saying to them, The Son of man is given up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he is dead, after three days he will come back from the dead.

424

And after a song of praise to God they went out to the Mountain of Olives.

426

And he said, That which comes out of the man, that makes the man unclean.

427

And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be free from your disease.

429

And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.

431

And four men came to him with one on a bed who had no power of moving.

433

And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.

434

But go, say to his disciples and to Peter, He goes before you into Galilee: there you will see him, as he said to you.

435

A man went out to put seed in the earth:

436

And you will be hated by all men, because of my name; but he who goes through to the end will have salvation.

437

And there went out to him all the people of Judaea, and all those of Jerusalem, and they were given baptism by him in the river Jordan, saying that they were sinners.

438

And Pilate put a question to him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he, answering, said to him, You say so.

440

And there came a poor widow, and she put in two little bits of money, which make a farthing.

441

And Jesus said to him, Go on your way; your faith has made you well. And straight away he was able to see, and went after him in the way.

442

And the Pharisees came out and put questions to him, requesting from him a sign from heaven, testing him.

443

Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles.

444

And the scribe said to him, Truly, Master, you have well said that he is one, and there is no other but he:

445

And while Peter was down in the open square of the building, one of the servant-girls of the high priest came;

446

And Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea, and a great number from Galilee came after him: and from Judaea,

447

And a certain young man went after him, with only a linen cloth about his body; and they put their hands on him;

449

And John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.

450

And one of the rulers of the Synagogue, Jairus by name, came, and seeing him, went down at his feet,

452

And the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, and the desire for other things coming in, put a stop to the growth of the word, and it gives no fruit.

454

Making the word of God of no effect by your rule, which you have given: and a number of other such things you do.

455

Salt is good; but if the taste goes from it, how will you make it salt again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.

456

And when they went in, they saw a young man seated on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were full of wonder.

457

And he was unable to do any work of power there, but only to put his hands on one or two persons who were ill, and make them well.

458

And being moved with pity, he put out his hand, and touching him said to him, It is my pleasure; be made clean.

460

So that seeing they may see, and it will not be clear to them; and hearing it, they will not get the sense; for fear that they may be turned again to me and have forgiveness.

461

But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

462

Truly, I say to you, The sons of men will have forgiveness for all their sins and for all the evil words they say:

463

And very early after dawn on the first day of the week, they came at the time of the coming up of the sun to the place where the body had been put.

464

In the same way the chief priests, laughing at him among themselves with the scribes, said, A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself.

465

Now at the feast every year he let one prisoner go free at their request.

466

So that the Son of man is lord even of the Sabbath.

467

And if your eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out: it is better for you to go into the kingdom of God with one eye than, having two eyes, to go into hell,

468

And he got a linen cloth and, taking him down, put the linen cloth round him, and put him in a place for the dead which had been cut out of a rock; and a stone was rolled against the door.

469

It is simpler for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a man of wealth to come into the kingdom of God.

470

Who will not get a hundred times as much now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and land--though with great troubles; and, in the world to come, eternal life.

471

Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.

472

There came Joseph of Arimathaea, a responsible man in high honour, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God; and he went in to Pilate without fear, and made a request for the body of Jesus.

473

Say when these things will be, and what will be the sign when these things are all about to be done.

474

There is nothing outside the man which, going into him, is able to make him unclean: but the things which come out of the man are those which make the man unclean.

475

But so that you may see that the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins on earth, (he said to the man,)

476

So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning;

477

And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.

478

And Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour, but in his country, and among his relations, and in his family.

479

Saying, See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given up to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will give an order for his death, and will give him up to the Gentiles:

480

And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.

481

And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end.

482

And he said to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: be here a little time, and keep watch.

485

Whoever will give honour to one such little child in my name, gives honour to me: and whoever gives honour to me, gives honour not to me, but to him who sent me.

487

And he went into a house. And the people came together again, so that they were not even able to take bread.

488

And Jesus said to them, Take care that you are not tricked by anyone.

489

Who take away the property of widows, and before the eyes of men make long prayers; these will be judged more hardly.

490

And he said that they were to take nothing for their journey, but a stick only; no bread, no bag, no money in their pockets;

491

And he said to them, Take care what you give ear to: in the same measure as you give you will get, and more will be given to you.

492

Why does this man say such things? he has no respect for God: from whom does forgiveness come but from God only?

494

She has done what she was able: she has put oil on my body to make it ready for its last resting-place.

495

And the curtain of the Temple was parted in two from end to end.

497

But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear there may be trouble among the people.

498

And truly I say to you, Wherever the good news goes out through all the earth, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.

499

And while he was still talking, they came from the ruler of the Synagogue's house, saying, Your daughter is dead: why are you still troubling the Master?

500

And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?

501

And turning to the people again, he said to them, Give ear to me all of you, and let my words be clear to you:

502

And Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests, so that he might give him up to them.

503

And some put shame on him and, covering his face, gave him blows and said to him, Now say what is to come: and the captains took him and gave him blows with their hands.

504

Because it goes not into the heart but into the stomach, and goes out with the waste? He said this, making all food clean.

505

Peter said to him, See, we have given up everything, and come after you.

507

And they were all greatly surprised, so that they put questions to one another, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he gives orders even to the unclean spirits, and they do what he says.

508

Everyone will be salted with fire.

509

And it was the third hour when they put him on the cross.

511

And he was nailed to the cross; and they made a division of his clothing among them, putting to the decision of chance what everyone was to take.

512

It is as when a man who is in another country for a time, having gone away from his house, and given authority to his servants and to everyone his work, gives the porter an order to keep watch.

513

And their fear was great, and they said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea do his orders?

514

But Jesus, giving no attention to their words, said to the ruler of the Synagogue, Have no fear, only have faith.

515

Truly, I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all these things are complete.

516

And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it:

517

And they gave him wine mixed with myrrh; but he did not take it.

519

And looking up to heaven, he took a deep breath, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be open.

520

And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot;

521

And whatever place will not take you in and will not give ear to you, when you go away, put off the dust from your feet as a witness against them.

522

And he went forward a little, and falling down on the earth, made request that, if possible, the hour might go from him.

523

And a great storm of wind came up, and the waves came into the boat, so that the boat was now becoming full.

524

And he would not let him, but said to him, Go to your house, to your friends, and give them news of the great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you.

525

And they will make sport of him, and put shame on him, and give him cruel blows, and will put him to death; and after three days he will come back from the dead.

526

And after these things he was seen in another form by two of them, while they were walking on their way into the country.

527

People will come in my name, saying, I am he; and a number will be turned from the true way.

529

And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them, Go into the town, and there will come to you a man with a vessel of water: go after him;

531

But Jesus said, Let her be; why are you troubling her? she has done a kind act to me.

532

And when they had gone across, they came to Gennesaret, and got their boat to land.

535

And he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing over them; and when the cakes were broken, he gave them to the disciples to put before the people; and he made division of the two fishes among them all.

536

He who is not against us is for us.

537

And they took him to the place named Golgotha, which is, Dead Man's Head.

538

It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is put in the earth, is smaller than all the seeds on the earth,

540

We might have got more than three hundred pence for it, and given the money to the poor. And they said things against her among themselves.

541

And what I say to you, I say to all, Keep watch.

542

And to James, the son of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James, he gave the second name of Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder:

543

Where their worm is ever living and the fire is not put out.

545

And without a story he said nothing to them: but privately to his disciples he made all things clear.

546

And he came the third time, and said to them, Go on sleeping now and take your rest: it is enough; the hour has come; see, the Son of man is given up into the hands of evil men.

547

But some of them were angry among themselves, saying, For what purpose has this oil been wasted?

548

And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.

549

And seeing that they had trouble in getting their boat through the water, because the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have gone past them;

550

He said in our hearing, I will put an end to this Temple which is made with hands, and in three days I will make another without hands.

551

And he said this openly. And Peter took him, and was protesting.

552

And with a number of such stories he gave them his teaching, as they were able to take it:

553

Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?

554

And he did not let anyone come with him, but Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

555

And they were saying among themselves, Who will get the stone rolled away from the door for us?

556

And Jesus said to him, What would you have me do to you? And the blind man said, Master, make me able to see.

558

And at the end of the day, his disciples came to him and said, This place is waste land, and it is late:

559

And when it came to his ears that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he gave a cry, and said, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.

560

And in the same minute, the cock gave a second cry. And it came to Peter's mind how Jesus had said to him, Before the cock's second cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And at this thought he was overcome with weeping.

561

You have knowledge of what is said in the law, Do not put any one to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Do not get money by deceit, Give honour to your father and mother.

562

And again he came and saw them sleeping, because their eyes were very tired; and they had nothing to say in answer.

563

And when Jesus saw that he gave a wise answer, he said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And every man after that was in fear of questioning him any more.

564

And they went away in the boat to a waste place by themselves.

565

And he said to them, Why are you full of fear? have you still no faith?

566

And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.

567

And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,

568

And he said to them all, There is one coming after me who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.

569

And Jesus, looking round about, said to his disciples, How hard it is for those who have wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

570

And the young girl got up straight away, and was walking about; she being twelve years old. And they were overcome with wonder.

571

And one of them went quickly and, getting a sponge full of bitter wine, put it on a rod, and gave it to him for drink, saying, Let be; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.

572

But a certain one of those who were near took out his sword, and gave the servant of the high priest a blow, cutting off his ear.

573

And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.

574

And they came to him with one who had no power of hearing and had trouble in talking; and they made a request to him to put his hands on him.

575

And wherever he went, into small towns, or great towns, or into the country, they took those who were ill into the market-places, requesting him that they might put their hands even on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.

576

And taking her by the hand, he said to her, Talitha cumi, which is, My child, I say to you, Get up.

577

And he took a little child, and put him in the middle of them; and taking him in his arms, he said to them,

578

And Pilate was surprised that he was dead; and, sending for the captain, he put a question to see if he had been dead for long.

579

And Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was put.

580

And Pilate, desiring to do what was pleasing to the people, let Barabbas go free, and gave up Jesus, when he had been whipped, to be put to death on the cross.

581

Have you not seen this which is in the Writings: The stone which the builders put on one side, the same was made the chief stone of the building:

583

Even so, when you see these things taking place, you may be certain that he is near, even at the doors.

584

She went and gave news of it to those who had been with him, while they were sorrowing and weeping.

586

And hearing what he said, they were glad, and gave him their word to make him a payment of money. And he took thought how he might best give him up to them.

587

Keep yourself from death, and come down from the cross.

588

And if your foot is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off: it is better for you to go into life with one foot than to have two feet and go into hell.

589

And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;

590

And the chief priests said a number of things against him.

591

And a great number were seated round him; and they said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you.

592

And when he had gone in, he said to them, Why are you making such a noise and weeping? The child is not dead, but sleeping.

593

And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.

594

But Jesus said to them, You have no knowledge of what you are saying. Are you able to take of my cup? or to undergo the baptism which I am to undergo?

595

David himself gives him the name of Lord; and how then is he his son? And the common people gave ear to him gladly.

596

Now he who had been false to him had given them a sign, saying, The one to whom I give a kiss, that is he; take him, and get him away safely.

597

And wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house, The Master says, Where is my guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?

598

And one of the number said to him in answer, Master, I came to you with my son, who has in him a spirit which takes away his power of talking;

599

And the people saw them going, and a number of them, having knowledge who they were, went running there together on foot from all the towns, and got there before them.

600

And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him be servant of all.

601

And they gave thought to it among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not have faith in him?

602

But to be seated at my right hand or at my left is not for me to give: but it is for those for whom it has been made ready.

603

Who went with him when he was in Galilee and took care of him; and a number of other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.

604

But they said nothing: because they had had an argument between themselves on the way, about who was the greatest.

605

And going away from the people, they took him with them, as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.

606

And after he had sent them away, he went up into a mountain for prayer.

607

Because they all put in something out of what they had no need for; but she out of her need put in all she had, even all her living.

609

And hearing this, the ten became very angry with James and John.

610

And to have the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;

611

For fear that, coming suddenly, he sees you sleeping.

612

But the saying was not clear to them, and they were in fear of questioning him about it.

614

And he made his disciples come to him, and said to them, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has put in more than all those who are putting money into the box:

615

But the people were moved by the chief priests to make him let Barabbas go free.

616

And by evening, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he by himself on the land.

617

And Peter had come after him at a distance, even into the house of the high priest; and he was seated with the captains, warming himself in the light of the fire.

618

And they came to the house of the ruler of the Synagogue; and he saw people running this way and that, and weeping and crying loudly.

619

And he said in answer, Who are my mother and my brothers?

620

But Jesus said, Say not so: for there is no man who will do a great work in my name, and be able at the same time to say evil of me.

621

But when it is planted, it comes up, and becomes taller than all the plants, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of heaven are able to take rest in its shade.

622

And Pilate again said in answer to them, What then am I to do to him to whom you give the name of the King of the Jews?

623

I was with you every day in the Temple teaching, and you did not take me; but this is done so that the Writings may come true.

624

And looking round at those who were seated about him, he said, See, my mother and my brothers!

625

His words against God have come to your ears: what is your opinion? And they all said it was right for him to be put to death.

626

Get up, let us be going; see, he who gives me up is near.

627

And they went away and gave news of it to the rest; and they had no belief in what was said.

628

But Jesus gave no more answers, so that Pilate was full of wonder.

630

And his ears became open, and the band of his tongue was made loose, and his words became clear.

631

Now the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin were looking for witness against Jesus so that they might put him to death; and they were unable to get any.

632

And when he had come, he went straight to him and said, Master; and gave him a kiss.

633

But he said to them in answer, Give them food yourselves. And they said to him, Are we to go and get bread for two hundred pence, and give it to them?

634

And he made them all be seated in groups on the green grass.

635

And they put their hands on him, and took him.

636

The woman, shaking with fear, conscious of what had been done to her, came and, falling on her face before him, gave him a true account of everything.

637

And Pilate again put a question, Do you say nothing in answer? see how much evil they say you have done.

638

But they, when they saw him walking on the sea, took him for a spirit, and gave a loud cry:

639

And he gave them special orders that they were not to say anything of this; and he said that some food was to be given to her.

640

But again he said it was not so. And after a little time, again those who were near said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; for you are a Galilaean.

641

But he said, I have no knowledge of him, or of what you are saying: and he went out into the doorway; and there came the cry of a cock.

642

And he went to them into the boat, and the wind went down, and they were full of wonder in themselves;

643

And again he went away, and said a prayer, using the same words.

644

And what would a man give in exchange for his life?

645

But, with curses and oaths, he said, I have no knowledge of the man about whom you are talking.

646

And they said to him, Let us be seated, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.

647

And they said in answer to Jesus, We have no idea. And Jesus said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.

648

And Pilate said in answer to them, Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?

649

And they were laughing at him. But he, having sent them all out, took the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.

650

For they all saw him, and were troubled. But straight away he said to them, Take heart, it is I, have no fear.

651

And the people went up, requesting him to do as he had done for them in other years.

652

And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.

653

And they said again loudly, To the cross with him!

654

And they said to him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, You will take of the cup from which I take; and the baptism which I am about to undergo you will undergo:

655

And Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? But their cry was the louder, To the cross!

656

And some of them, turning in protest, gave him an order to be quiet: but he went on crying out all the more, Son of David, have mercy on me.

657

And those who took of the bread were five thousand men.

658

And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken bits and of the fishes.

659

And Jesus said to them, Have you come out as against a thief, with swords and sticks to take me?

660

And they all took of the food and had enough.

661

Then some got up and gave false witness against him, saying,

662

Send them away, so that they may go into the country and small towns round about, and get some food for themselves.

663

And he, putting off his coat, got up quickly, and came to Jesus.

664

And he said to them, What would you have me do for you?

665

And Jesus came to a stop and said, Let him come. And crying out to the blind man, they said to him, Be comforted: come, he has sent for you.

666

And he said to them, How much bread have you? go and see. And when they had seen, they said, Five cakes of bread and two fishes.

667

And the high priest got up in the middle of them, and said to Jesus, Do you say nothing in answer? what is it which these say against you?

668

For a number gave false witness against him and their witness was not in agreement.

669

And when he had news of it from the captain, he let Joseph have the body.

670

And the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, What more need have we of witnesses?

671

But he got away unclothed, without the linen cloth.

672

And they were placed in groups, by hundreds and by fifties.

673

And the girl saw him, and said again to those who were near, This is one of them.

674

And seeing Peter warming himself by the fire, she gave him a look, and said, You were with this Nazarene, even Jesus.

675

And on his looking round to see her who had done this thing,

676

And went running through all the country round about, and took on their beds those who were ill, to where it was said that he was.

677

And when they had got out of the boat, the people quickly had news of him,

678

And even so their witness was not in agreement.
