And he meditating on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying; Joseph, son of David, do not fear to receive Mary thy wife; for that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit;

and says to Him; If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down; for it has been written, That He will give His angels charge concerning thee, and upon their hand they will bear thee, lest thou mayest dash thy foot against a stone.

Jesus said to him; Again it has been written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

If having fallen down thou mayest worship me: then Jesus says to him, Get behind me, Satan; for it has been written; Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not that thy whole body may go away into hell.

Neither swear by thy head, because thou art unable to make one hair white or black.

But I say unto you, Resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smites thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also:

to him wishing to prosecute thee at law, and take away thy coat, let him have the cloak also.

You have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy.

But thou doing alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

in order that thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father who sees in secret will reward thee openly.

But when thou mayest pray, enter into thy closet, and having closed thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret, and thy Father who seeth in secret will reward thee openly.

Therefore pray ye after this manner: Our Father who art in the heavens, let thy name be hallowed:

let thy kingdom come: let thy will be done, as in heaven, even so upon earth:

But thou, fasting, anoint thy head, and wash thy face;

in order that thou mayest not appear unto the people fasting, but to thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee openly.

For the light of the body is the eye. If thine eye may be clear, thy whole body will he lighted.

If thine eye may be bad, thy whole body will be dark. Then if the light which is in you is darkness, the darkness is so great.

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name, and in thy name cast out demons, and in thy name done many mighty works?

And behold, they were bringing to Him a paralyzed man, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said to the paralytic, Be of good cheer, child, thy sins are forgiven thee.

For whether is it easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or, Arise, and walk about?

But in order that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, (then He says to the paralytic), Having arisen, take thy bed, and depart into thy house.

Then the disciples of John come to Him, saying, Wherefore do we and the Pharisee fast, but thy disciples do not fast?

And the woman was saved from that hour. And Jesus turning and seeing her said, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath saved thee.

for this is he, concerning whom it has been written, Behold, I send my messenger before my face, who will prepare thy way before thee.

Yea, Father, because it was so well pleasing in thy sight.

And the Pharisees, seeing, said to Him, Behold thy disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.

Then He says to the man, Reach forth thy hand. And he reached it forth and it was restored.

For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shah be condemned.

And a certain one said to Him; Behold, thy mother and thy brothers stand without, seeking to speak to thee.

Wherefore do thy disciples transgress the traditions of the elders? for they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.

For God commanded saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die with death.

Then Jesus responding said to her, O woman, great is thy faith; let it be done unto thee as thou dost wish. And her daughter was healed from that hour.

And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.

If thy hand or thy foot offends thee, cut them off and cast them from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into eternal fire.

But if thy brother may sin, go, and convict him between thee and him alone: if he may hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother:

did it not behoove thee also to have mercy on thy fellow-servant, as I had mercy on thee?

honor the father and the mother, and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

And He said to her, What do you wish? She says to Him, Tell me that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right, and one on thy left, in thy kingdom.

Say to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh, meek, and seated upon a donkey, even a colt, the progeny of the work-beast.

And He said to him; Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I may make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet?

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them that have been sent unto thee! how frequently did I wish to gather together thy children, in the manner in which a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but ye were not willing!

And He sitting upon the Mount of Olives; the disciples came to Him privately, saying, Tell us, when these things shall be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming and the end of the age?

His lord said to him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou wast faithful over few things, and I will make thee ruler over many things: come thou into the joy of thy lord.

And his lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou wast faithful over few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: come thou into the joy of thy lord.

and being afraid, having gone away, I hid thy talent in the earth: behold, thou hast thine own.

And again the second time, having gone away, He prayed, saying, My Father, if it is possible that this cup pass from me, if I shall not drink it, let thy will be done.

Then Jesus says to him, Turn away thy sword into its place; for all taking the sword shall perish by the sword.

And after a little the bystanders coming to Peter, said, Truly, thou art also one of them, for indeed thy speech betrays thee.
