Then Jesus was sent by the Spirit into the waste land to be tested by the Evil One.

And the Evil One came and said to him, If you are the Son of God, give the word for these stones to become bread.

Then the Evil One took him to the holy town; and he put him on the highest point of the Temple and said to him,

Again, the Evil One took him up to a very high mountain, and let him see all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them;

Then the Evil One went away from him, and angels came and took care of him.

And news of him went out through all Syria; and they took to him all who were ill with different diseases and pains, those having evil spirits and those who were off their heads, and those who had no power of moving. And he made them well.

Happy are you when men give you a bad name, and are cruel to you, and say all evil things against you falsely, because of me.

But let your words be simply, Yes or No: and whatever is more than these is of the Evil One.

But I say to you, Do not make use of force against an evil man; but to him who gives you a blow on the right side of your face let the left be turned.

So that you may be the sons of your Father in heaven; for his sun gives light to the evil and to the good, and he sends rain on the upright man and on the sinner.

And let us not be put to the test, but keep us safe from the Evil One.

But if your eye is evil, all your body will be dark. If then the light which is in you is dark, how dark it will be!

If you, then, being evil, are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who make requests to him?

Even so, every good tree gives good fruit; but the bad tree gives evil fruit.

A great number will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, were we not prophets in your name, and did we not by your name send out evil spirits, and by your name do works of power?

And then will I say to them, I never had knowledge of you: go from me, you workers of evil.

And in the evening, they took to him a number of people who had evil spirits; and he sent the spirits out of them with a word, and made well all who were ill;

And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.

And the evil spirits made strong prayers to him, saying, If you send us out, let us go into the herd of pigs.

And their keepers went in flight to the town and gave an account of everything, and of the men who had the evil spirits.

And Jesus, having knowledge of what was in their minds, said, Why are your thoughts evil?

And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.

And when the evil spirit had been sent out, the man had the power of talking: and they were all surprised, saying, Such a thing has never been seen in Israel.

But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of evil spirits, he sends evil spirits out of men.

Make well those who are ill, give life to the dead, make lepers clean, send evil spirits out of men; freely it has been given to you, freely give.

For John came, taking no food or drink, and they say, He has an evil spirit.

Then they took to him one with an evil spirit, who was blind and had no power of talking: and he made him well so that he had the power of talking and seeing.

But the Pharisees, hearing of it, said, This man only sends evil spirits out of men by Beelzebub, the ruler of evil spirits.

And if I by Beelzebub send evil spirits out of men, by whom do your sons send them out? So let them be your judges.

But if I by the Spirit of God send out evil spirits, then is the kingdom of God come on you.

So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.

You offspring of snakes, how are you, being evil, able to say good things? because out of the heart's store come the words of the mouth.

The good man out of his good store gives good things; and the evil man out of his evil store gives evil things.

But he, answering, said to them, An evil and false generation is looking for a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of the prophet Jonah:

Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits worse than himself, and they go in and make it their living-place: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first. Even so will it be with this evil generation.

When the word of the kingdom comes to anyone, and the sense of it is not clear to him, then the Evil One comes, and quickly takes away that which was put in his heart. He is the seed dropped by the wayside.

But while men were sleeping, one who had hate for him came and put evil seeds among the grain, and went away.

But when the green stem came up and gave fruit, the evil plants were seen at the same time.

And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, Sir, did you not put good seed in your field? how then has it evil plants?

But he says, No, for fear that by chance while you take up the evil plants, you may be rooting up the grain with them.

Let them come up together till the getting in of the grain; and then I will say to the workers, Take up first the evil plants, and put them together for burning: but put the grain into my store-house.

Then he went away from the people, and went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Make clear to us the story of the evil plants in the field.

And the field is the world; and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom; and the evil seeds are the sons of the Evil One;

As then the evil plants are got together and burned with fire, so will it be in the end of the world.

For God said, Give honour to your father and mother: and, He who says evil of father or mother will be put to death.

For out of the heart come evil thoughts, the taking of life, broken faith between the married, unclean desires of the flesh, taking of property, false witness, bitter words:

An evil and false generation is searching after a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah. And he went away from them.

Then his lord sent for him and said, You evil servant; I made you free of all that debt, because of your request to me:

Have I not the right to do as seems good to me in my house? or is your eye evil, because I am good?

And the rest put violent hands on his servants, and did evil to them, and put them to death.

But if that evil servant says in his heart, My lord is a long time in coming;

Then will he say to those on the left, Go from me, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire which is ready for the Evil One and his angels:

Then he comes to the disciples; and says to them, Go on sleeping now, and take your rest: for the hour is come, and the Son of man is given into the hands of evil men.

Then the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, He has said evil against God: what more need have we of witnesses? for now his words against God have come to your ears:

And he said, Why, what evil has he done? But they gave loud cries, saying, To the cross with him!

And the thieves who were on the crosses said evil words to him.
