Then the righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that has ears, let him hear.

Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these things? They say to him, Yea, Lord.

And they were offended in him. And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honour, unless in his country and in his house.

and said to his servants, This is John the baptist: he is risen from the dead, and because of this these works of power display their force in him.

For Herod had seized John, and had bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother.

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

And while desiring to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they held him for a prophet.

And the king was grieved; but on account of the oaths, and those lying at table with him, he commanded it to be given.

And Jesus, having heard it, went away thence by ship to a desert place apart. And the crowds having heard of it followed him on foot from the cities.

But when even was come, his disciples came to him saying, The place is desert, and much of the day time already gone by; dismiss the crowds, that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.

But they say to him, We have not here save five loaves and two fishes.

And immediately he compelled the disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before him to the other side, until he should have dismissed the crowds.

And the disciples, seeing him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, It is an apparition. And they cried out through fear.

And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be thou, command me to come to thee upon the waters.

And immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?

But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God's Son.

And when the men of that place recognised him, they sent to that whole country around, and they brought to him all that were ill,

and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment; and as many as touched were made thoroughly well.

For God commanded saying, Honour father and mother; and, He that speaks ill of father or mother, let him die the death.

And having called to him the crowd, he said to them, Hear and understand:

Then his disciples, coming up, said to him, Dost thou know that the Pharisees, having heard this word, have been offended?

And Peter answering said to him, Expound to us this parable.

and lo, a Canaanitish woman, coming out from those borders, cried to him saying, Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.

But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came to him and asked him, saying, Dismiss her, for she cries after us.

But she came and did him homage, saying, Lord, help me.

and great crowds came to him, having with them lame, blind, dumb, crippled, and many others, and they cast them at his feet, and he healed them:

But Jesus, having called his disciples to him, said, I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me already three days and they have not anything they can eat, and I would not send them away fasting lest they should faint on the way.

And his disciples say to him, Whence should we have so many loaves in the wilderness as to satisfy so great a crowd?

And the Pharisees and Sadducees, coming to him, asked him, tempting him, to shew them a sign out of heaven.

And Jesus answering said to him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona, for flesh and blood has not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.

And Peter taking him to him began to rebuke him, saying, God be favourable to thee, Lord; this shall in no wise be unto thee.

Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any one desires to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John his brother, and brings them up into a high mountain apart.

and lo, Moses and Elias appeared to them talking with him.

While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I have found my delight: hear him.

And his disciples demanded of him saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first have come?

But I say unto you that Elias has already come, and they have not known him, but have done unto him whatever they would. Thus also the Son of man is about to suffer from them.

And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying,

And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.

And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to me.

And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out from him, and the boy was healed from that hour.

Then the disciples, coming to Jesus apart, said to him, Why were not we able to cast him out?

and they shall kill him; and the third day he shall be raised up. And they were greatly grieved.

He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What dost thou think, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive custom or tribute? from their own sons or from strangers?

Peter says to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.

And Jesus having called a little child to him, set it in their midst,

But whosoever shall offend one of these little ones who believe in me, it were profitable for him that a great millstone had been hanged upon his neck and he be sunk in the depths of the sea.

But if thy brother sin against thee, go, reprove him between thee and him alone. If he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

But if he will not listen to them, tell it to the assembly; and if also he will not listen to the assembly, let him be to thee as one of the nations and a tax-gatherer.

Then Peter came to him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? until seven times?

Jesus says to him, I say not to thee until seven times, but until seventy times seven.

And having begun to reckon, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him.

But he not having anything to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and his children, and everything that he had, and that payment should be made.

The bondman therefore falling down did him homage, saying, Lord, have patience with me and I will pay thee all.

And the lord of that bondman, being moved with compassion, loosed him and forgave him the loan.

But that bondman having gone out, found one of his fellow-bondmen who owed him a hundred denarii. And having seized him, he throttled him, saying, Pay me if thou owest anything.

His fellow-bondman therefore, having fallen down at his feet, besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.

But he would not, but went away and cast him into prison, until he should pay what was owing.

Then his lord, having called him to him, says to him, Wicked bondman! I forgave thee all that debt because thou besoughtest me;

And his lord being angry delivered him to the tormentors till he paid all that was owing to him.

and great crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

And the Pharisees came to him tempting him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

They say to him, Why then did Moses command to give a letter of divorce and to send her away?

His disciples say to him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.

for there are eunuchs which have been born thus from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs of men; and there are eunuchs who have made eunuchs of themselves for the sake of the kingdom of the heavens. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Then there were brought to him little children that he might lay his hands on them and pray; but the disciples rebuked them.

And lo, one coming up said to him, Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have life eternal?

And he said to him, What askest thou me concerning goodness? one is good. But if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments.

He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

The young man says to him, All these have I kept; what lack I yet?

Jesus said to him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell what thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.

Then Peter answering said to him, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee; what then shall happen to us?

They say to him, Because no man has hired us. He says to them, Go also ye into the vineyard and whatsoever may be just ye shall receive.

And Jesus, going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples with him apart in the way, and said to them,

Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be delivered up to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death;

and they will deliver him up to the nations to mock and to scourge and to crucify, and the third day he shall rise again.

Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, doing homage, and asking something of him.

And he said to her, What wilt thou? She says to him, Speak the word that these my two sons may sit, one on thy right hand and one on thy left in thy kingdom.

And Jesus answering said, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink the cup which I am about to drink? They say to him, We are able.

But Jesus having called them to him, said, Ye know that the rulers of the nations exercise lordship over them, and the great exercise authority over them.

and whosoever will be first among you, let him be your bondman;

And as they went out from Jericho a great crowd followed him.

They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

And Jesus, moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes had sight restored to them, and they followed him.

And the crowds who went before him and who followed cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; blessed be he who comes in the name of the Lord; hosanna in the highest.

And blind and lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.

and said to him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus says to them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?

And when he came into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, saying, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?

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

Which of the two did the will of the father? They say to him, The first. Jesus says to them, Verily I say unto you that the tax-gatherers and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not; but the tax-gatherers and the harlots believed him; but ye when ye saw it repented not yourselves afterwards to believe him.

But the husbandmen, seeing the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him and possess his inheritance.

And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.

They say to him, He will miserably destroy those evil men, and let out the vineyard to other husbandmen, who shall render him the fruits in their seasons.

And he that falls on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.

And seeking to lay hold of him, they were afraid of the crowds, because they held him for a prophet.

And he says to him, My friend, how camest thou in here not having on a wedding garment? But he was speechless.

Then said the king to the servants, Bind him feet and hands, and take him away, and cast him out into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

Then went the Pharisees and held a council how they might ensnare him in speaking.

And they send out to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that thou art true and teachest the way of God in truth, and carest not for any one, for thou regardest not men's person;
