The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.

And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins.

and knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name JESUS.

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, Wise-men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,

Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

But Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffereth him.

And Jesus when he was baptized, went up straightway from the water: and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him;

Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

Jesus said unto him, Again it is written, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God.

Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

From that time began Jesus to preach, and to say, Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness among the people.

And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching:

And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

And when Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; as thou hast believed,'so be it done unto thee. And the servant was healed in that hour.

And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother lying sick of a fever.

Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandments to depart unto the other side.

And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

But Jesus saith unto him, Follow me; and leave the dead to bury their own dead.

And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart from their borders.

And behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven.

And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

And as Jesus passed by from thence, he saw a man, called Matthew, sitting at the place of toll: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

And it came to pass, as he sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.

And Jesus said unto them, Can the sons of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then will they fast.

And Jesus arose, and followed him, and'so did his disciples.

But Jesus turning and seeing her said, Daughter, be of good cheer; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the flute-players, and the crowd making a tumult,

And as Jesus passed by from thence, two blind men followed him, crying out, and saying, Have mercy on us, thou son of David.

And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

And their eyes were opened. And Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

And Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness.

These twelve Jesus sent forth, and charged them, saying, Go not into any way of the Gentiles, and enter not into any city of the Samaritans:

And it came to pass when Jesus had finished commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and preach in their cities.

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and tell John the things which ye hear and see:

And as these went their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?

At that season Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes:

At that season Jesus went on the sabbath day through the grainfields; and his disciples were hungry and began to pluck ears and to eat.

And Jesus perceiving it withdrew from thence: and many followed him; and he healed them all,

On that day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

All these things spake Jesus in parables unto the multitudes; and without a parable spake he nothing unto them:

And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.

And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country, and in his own house.

At that season Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,

And his disciples came, and took up the corpse, and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.

Now when Jesus heard it , he withdrew from thence in a boat, to a desert place apart: and when the multitudes heard thereof, they followed him on foot from the cities.

But Jesus said unto them, They have no need to go away; give ye them to eat.

But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

And he said, Come. And Peter went down from the boat, and walked upon the waters to come to Jesus.

And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and took hold of him, and saith unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

Then there come to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,

And Jesus went out thence, and withdrew into the parts of Tyre and Sidon.

Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it done unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that hour.

And Jesus departed thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.

And Jesus called unto him his disciples, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat: and I would not send them away fasting, lest haply they faint on the way.

And Jesus said unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes.

And Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And Jesus perceiving it said, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have no bread?

Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Who do men say that the Son of man is?

And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jonah: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in heaven.

From that time began Jesus to show unto his disciples, that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart:

And Peter answered, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, I will make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

And Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, save Jesus only.

And as they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen from the dead.

And Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him hither to me.

And Jesus rebuked him; and the demon went out of him: and the boy was cured from that hour.

Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast it out?

And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men;

He saith, Yea. And when he came into the house, Jesus spake first to him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive toll or tribute? from their sons, or from strangers?

And when he said, From strangers, Jesus said unto him, Therefore the sons are free.

In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven.

And it came to pass when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judaea beyond the Jordan;

But Jesus said, Suffer the little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for to such belongeth the kingdom of heaven.

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

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

And Jesus said unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.

And Jesus looking upon them'said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

And as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples apart, and on the way he said unto them,

But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I am about to drink? They say unto him, We are able.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

And behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, Lord, have mercy on us, thou son of David.

And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I should do unto you?

And Jesus, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and straightway they received their sight, and followed him.

And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them,

And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.

And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of he money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;

and said unto him, Hearest thou what these are saying? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea: did ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou has perfected praise?

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do what is done to the fig tree, but even if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it shall be done.

And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one question, which if ye tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

And they answered Jesus, and said, We know not. He also said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

Which of the two did the will of his father? They say, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
