For the Son of Man is Lord even of the sabbath.

Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.

Offspring of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.

For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so the Son of Man shall be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

The queen of the south shall rise up in the Judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, One greater than Solomon is here.

For whoever shall do the will of My Father in Heaven, the same is My brother and sister and mother.

For whoever has, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance. But whoever does not have, from him shall be taken away even that which he has.

for this people's heart has become gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them."

But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.

For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear what you hear, and have not heard them.

But he has no root in himself, and is temporary. For when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the Word, he immediately stumbles.

Therefore as the darnel are gathered and burned in the fire, so it shall be in the end of this world.

and shall cast them into a furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which when a man has found it, he hides it, and for the joy of it goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.

and shall cast them into the furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

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

But the boat was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves; for the wind was against them.

And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a phantom! And they cried out for fear.

But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be of good cheer, I AM! Do not fear.

Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.

For God commanded, saying, "Honor your father and mother"; and, "He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him die by death."

"This people draws near to Me with their mouth, and honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.

But in vain they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."

For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies;

But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came and begged Him, saying, Send her away, for she cries after us.

Then Jesus called His disciples and said, I have compassion on the crowd because they continue with Me for three days now and have nothing to eat. And I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

He answered and said to them, When it is evening, you say, Fair weather; for the sky is red.

And in the morning, Foul weather today; for the sky is red and gloomy. Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky, but you cannot see the signs of the times!

nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many lunch baskets you took up?

Jesus answered and said to him, You are blessed, Simon, son of Jonah, for flesh and blood did not reveal it to you, but My Father in Heaven.

But He turned and said to Peter, Go, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you do not savor the things that are of God, but those that are of men.

For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever desires to lose his life for My sake shall find it.

For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

For the Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He shall reward each one according to his works.

And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here. If You will, let us make here three tabernacles; one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is a lunatic and grievously vexed; for oftentimes he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

And Jesus said to them, Because of your unbelief. For truly I say to you, If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Move from here to there. And it shall move. And nothing shall be impossible to you.

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

But lest we should offend them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. And when you have opened its mouth, you shall find a stater; take that, and give it to them for Me and you.

But whoever shall offend one of these little ones who believes in Me, it would be better for him that an ass's millstone were hung around his neck, and he be sunk in the depth of the sea.

Woe to the world because of offenses! For it is necessary that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

And if your hand or your foot causes you to offend, cut them off and throw them from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

And if your eye offends you, pluck it out and throw it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.

Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I say to you that in Heaven their angels always behold the face of My Father in Heaven.

For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost.

Again I say to you that if two of you shall agree on earth as regarding anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by My Father in Heaven.

For where two or three are gathered together in My name, there I am in their midst.

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

and said, For this cause a man shall leave father and mother and shall cling to his wife, and the two of them shall be one flesh?

And I say to you, Whoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is put away commits adultery.

For there are some eunuchs who were born so from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of Heaven's sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.

But Jesus said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.

But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.

And again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

And everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

For the kingdom of Heaven is like a man, a housemaster, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard.

And when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

But he answered one of them and said, Friend, I do you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?

Is it not lawful for me to do what I want with my own? Is your eye evil because I am good?

So the last shall be first, and the first last, for many are called, but few are chosen.

And He said to them, You shall indeed drink of My cup and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but to those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.

even as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.

But if we shall say From men, we fear the people; for all consider John as a prophet.

For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax-collectors and the harlots believed him. And when you had seen it, you did not repent afterwards so that you might believe him.

Hear another parable. There was a certain housemaster who planted a vineyard and hedged it round about, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and rented it to vinedressers, and went into a far country.

But seeking to lay hands on Him, they feared the crowd, because they held Him for a prophet.

The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a marriage for his son.

For many are called, but few chosen.

And they sent their disciples out to Him along with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that you are true, and that you teach the way of God in truth. Nor do you care for anyone, for you do not regard the person of men.

Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife shall she be, of the seven? For they all had her.

For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in Heaven.

"the LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right until I make Your enemies Your footstool for Your feet?"

Therefore whatever they tell you to observe, observe and do. But do not do according to their works; for they say, and do not do.

For they bind heavy and hard-to-carry burdens and lay them on men's shoulders. But they will not move them with one of their fingers.

But you must not be called Rabbi, for One is your teacher, Christ, and you are all brothers.

And call no one your father on the earth, for One is your Father in Heaven.

Nor be called teachers, for One is your Teacher, even Christ.

But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of Heaven against men. For you neither go in, nor do you allow those entering to go in.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and pray at length as a pretense. Therefore you shall receive the greater condemnation.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you compass sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, you make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifies the gold?

Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifies the gift?

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithes of mint and dill and cummin, and you have left undone the weightier matters of the Law, judgment, mercy, and faith. You ought to have done these and not to leave the other undone.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside they are full of extortion and excess.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which indeed appear beautiful outside, but inside they are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.

For I say to you, You shall not see Me from now on until you say, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord."

For many will come in My name, saying, I am Christ, and will deceive many.

And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for all these things must occur; but the end is not yet.

For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in different places.

Then they will deliver you up to be afflicted and will kill you. And you will be hated of all nations for My name's sake.

for then shall be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world to this time; no, nor ever shall be.

And unless those days should be shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the elect's sake, those days shall be shortened.

For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders; so much so that, if it were possible, they would deceive even the elect.

For as the lightning comes out of the east and shines even to the west, so also will be the coming of the Son of Man.

For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered.
