But as they went away, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed moved about by the wind?

a bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, until he bring forth judgment unto victory;

and having woven a crown out of thorns, they put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and, bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

And having spit upon him, they took the reed and beat him on his head.

And immediately one of them running and getting a sponge, having filled it with vinegar and fixed it on a reed, gave him to drink.

for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you.

He spoke another parable to them: The kingdom of the heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until it had been all leavened.

and ye, fill ye up the measure of your fathers.
