Then Herod sent for the wise men privately, and put questions to them about what time the star had been seen.

Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was very angry; and he sent out, and put to death all the male children in Beth-lehem and in all the parts round about it, from two years old and under, acting on the knowledge which he had got with care from the wise men.

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

From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near.

And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and making well those who were ill with any disease among the people.

When then you give money to the poor, do not make a noise about it, as the false-hearted men do in the Synagogues and in the streets, so that they may have glory from men. Truly, I say to you, They have their reward.

And when you go without food, be not sad-faced as the false-hearted are. For they go about with changed looks, so that men may see that they are going without food. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.

So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?

And why are you troubled about clothing? See the flowers of the field, how they come up; they do no work, they make no thread:

And it came about, when Jesus had come to the end of these words, that the people were surprised at his teaching,

And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.

Now when Jesus saw a great mass of people about him, he gave an order to go to the other side.

And it came about, when he was in the house taking food, that a number of tax-farmers and sinners came and took their places with Jesus and his disciples.

And Jesus went about all the towns and small places, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and making well all sorts of disease and pain.

But when you are given up into their hands, do not be troubled about what to say or how to say it: for in that hour what you are to say will be given to you;

And it came about that when Jesus had come to the end of giving these orders to his twelve disciples, he went away from there, teaching and preaching in their towns.

And a blessing will be on him who has no doubts about me.

And those who had food were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.

And when the men of that place had news of him, they sent into all the country round about, and took to him all who were ill,

How is it that you do not see that I was not talking to you about bread, but about keeping away from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

And Peter, protesting, said to him, Be it far from you, Lord; it is impossible that this will come about.

And while they were going about in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man will be given up into the hands of men;

Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

And it came about that after saying these words, Jesus went away from Galilee, and came into the parts of Judaea on the other side of Jordan.

And he said to him, Why are you questioning me about what is good? One there is who is good: but if you have a desire to go into life, keep the rules of the law.

And he went out about the third hour, and saw others in the market-place doing nothing;

Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same.

And about the eleventh hour he went out and saw others doing nothing; and he says to them, Why are you here all the day doing nothing?

But Jesus made answer and said, You have no idea what you are requesting. Are you able to take of the cup which I am about to take?

But they gave no attention, and went about their business, one to his farm, another to his trade:

But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings:

A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you go about land and sea to get one disciple and, having him, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.

See, I have made it clear to you before it comes about.

For it is as when a man, about to take a journey, got his servants together, and gave them his property.

And about the ninth hour Jesus gave a loud cry, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why are you turned away from me?
