Moreover, Joseph her husband, being, righteous, and yet unwilling to expose her, - intended, privately, to divorce her.

But, all this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord, through the prophet, saying:

And, they, said to him, In Bethlehem of Judaea, - for, so, is it written through the prophet:

And, thou, Bethlehem, land of Judah, by no means least, art thou, among the governors of Judah, - For, out of thee, shall one come forth to govern, Who shall shepherd my people Israel.

and sending them to Bethlehem, said - Go search out accurately concerning the child, - and, as soon as ye find it, bring report unto me, that, I also, may come and bow myself down to it.

Now, they, hearing the king, went, and lo! the star which they had seen in the east, was going before them, until it went and stood over where the child was;

and, coming into the house, they saw the child, with Mary its mother, - and, falling down, prostrated themselves unto it, and, opening their treasures, offered unto it gifts - gold and frankincense and myrrh;

Now, when they had retired, lo! a messenger of the Lord, appeareth by dream unto Joseph, saying, Arise, take unto thee the child and its mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there, until I tell thee, - for Herod is about to seek the child, to destroy it.

and was there, until the death of Herod, - that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt, called I my son.

and came and fixed his dwelling in a city called Nazareth, - that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets - A Nazarene, shall he be called.

and think not to be saying within yourselves, - As our father, we have, Abraham; for, I say unto you, that God is able, out of these stones, to raise up children unto Abraham.

Whose fan is in his hand, and he will clear out his threshing-floor, - and will gather his wheat into the granary, but, the chaff, will he burn up with fire unquenchable.

But Jesus answering, said unto him, Suffer me even now, - for, thus, it becometh us, to fulfil, all righteousness; then, he suffered him.

and lo! a voice out of the heavens, - saying, This, is my Son, the Beloved, in whom I delight.

But, he, answering, said, It is written, - Not on bread alone, shall man live, but on every declaration coming forth through the mouth of God.

and saith to him - If thou art God's, Son, cast thyself down, - for it is written, To his messengers, will he give charge concerning thee; and, on hands, will they bear thee up, lest once thou strike, against a stone, thy foot.

Jesus said to him, Again, it is written, - Thou shalt not put to the test, the Lord thy God.

Again, the adversary taketh him with him, into an exceeding high mountain, - and pointeth out to him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;

Then saith Jesus unto him, Withdraw, Satan! for it is written, - The Lord thy God, shalt thou worship, and, to him alone, render divine service.

that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying:

Ye, are the salt of the earth; but, if the salt become tasteless, wherewith shall it be salted? it is good, for nothing, any more, save, being cast out, to be trampled on by men.

Ye, are the light of the world: it is impossible for a city to be hid, on the top of a mountain, lying.

Neither light they a lamp, and place it under the measure; but upon the lampstand, and it giveth light to all that are in the house.

Ye have heard, that it was said, to them of olden time, - Thou shalt not commit murder, and, whosoever shall commit murder, shall be, liable, to judgment.

Verily, I say unto thee, In nowise, mayest thou come out from thence, until thou pay the last halfpenny.

Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

And, if, thy right eye, is causing thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee, - for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, be cast into gehenna.

And, if, thy right hand, is causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee, - for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, into gehenna, depart.

It was said, moreover, Whosoever shall divorce his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement;

Again, ye have heard that it was said, to them of olden time, Thou shalt not swear falsely, - but shalt render unto the Lord, thine oaths.

But, I, tell you - not to swear, at all: Neither by heaven, because it is the, throne of God, -

Nor by the earth, because it is his, footstool; nor by Jerusalem, because, it is the, city, of the Great King;

Nor, by thine own head, mayest thou swear, because thou art not able to make, one hair, white or black.

But let your word be, Yea, yea, - Nay, nay; and, what goeth beyond these, is, of evil.

Ye have heard, that it was said, - Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.

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

For, if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? are not, even the tax-collectors, the same thing, doing?

And, if ye salute your brethren only, what, more than common, are ye doing? are not, even the nations, the same thing, doing?

Buttake heed, that ye do not, your righteousness, before men, to be gazed at by them, - otherwise at least, reward, have ye none, with your Father who is in the heavens.

But, thou, when doing an alms, let not, thy left hand, know what thy right hand is doing;

that thine alms may be in secret, - and, thy Father, who seeth in secret, will give it back to thee.

And, when ye may be praying, ye shall not be as the hypocrites, because they love, in the synagogues, and at the corners of the broad ways, to take their stand and pray, that they may shine before men; Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

And, being at prayer, use not vain repetitions, just like the nations, - for they think, that, in their much speaking, they shall be hoard;

do not, therefore, make yourselves like them, for Godyour Father knoweth of what things ye have, need, before ye ask him.

For this cause, I say unto you: Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink, - or for your body, what ye shall put on: Is not, the life, more than, the food? And, the body, than, the raiment?

Observe intently, the birds of the heaven, - that they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and yet, your heavenly Father, feedeth, them: Are no, ye, much better than, they?

But who from among you, being anxious, can add to his stature one cubit?

And yet, I say unto you, not even Solomon, in all his glory, was arrayed like, one of these!

Do not then be anxious saying, What shall we eat? or What shall we drink? or Wherewithal shall we be arrayed?

For, with what judgment ye judge, shall ye be judged, - and, with what measure ye mete, shall it be measured unto you.

Or how wilt thou say unto thy brother, Let me cast the mote out of thine eye, - when 1o! a beam, is in thine own eye?

Hypocrite! cast first, out of thine own eye, the beam, - and, then, shalt thou see clearly to cast the mote, out of the eye of thy brother.

Do not give what is holy unto dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, - lest once they trample, them, down with their feet, and, turning, tear, you.

Be asking, and it shall be given you, Be seeking, and ye shall find, - Be knocking, and it shall be opened unto you.

For, whosoever asketh, receiveth, and, he that seeketh, findeth, - and, to him that knocketh, shall it be opened.

Or what man, from among yourselves, whom his son shall ask for a loaf, - a stone, will give him?

Enter ye in at, the narrow gate; because broad and roomy is the way that leadeth unto destruction, - and, many, are they who enter thereby:

Because, narrow, is the gate, and, confined, the way, that leadeth unto life, - and, few, are they who find, it.

By their fruits, shall ye find, them, out, - unless perhaps men gather - from thorns, grapes! or, from thistles, figs!

It is, impossible, for a, good tree, to be bearing, evil fruit, neither doth, a worthless tree, produce, fine fruit.

After all then, by their fruits, shall ye find, them, out.

Many, will say unto me, in, that, day, Lord! Lord! did we not, in thy name, prophesy, and, in thy name, cast, demons, out, - and, in thy name, many works of power, perform?

And the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and rushed against that house, and it fell not; for it had been founded upon the rock.

And the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and dashed against that house, and it fell; and, the fall thereof, was, great.

And it came to pass, when Jesus ended these words, with astonishment were the multitudes being struck at his teaching;

For, I also, am a man setunder authority, having under myself, soldiers, - and I say to this one, Go! and he goeth, and to another, Come! and he cometh, and, to my servant, Do this! and he doeth it.

And Jesus said unto the centurion, Withdraw! and, as thou hast believed, be it done for thee. And healed was the servant in that hour.

But, when, evening, came, they brought unto him many demonized, - and he cast out the spirits with a word, and, all who were sick, he cured:

that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, - Himself, our weaknesses, took, and, diseases, bare.

And he saith unto them, Why, are ye, fearful, little of faith? Then, aroused, he rebuked the winds and the sea, - and it became a great calm.

And, when he, came, unto the other side, into the country of the Gadarenes, there met him, two men demonized, out of the tombs, coming forth, - fierce exceedingly, so that no one could pass that way;

and lo! they cried aloud, saying, What have we in common with thee, O Son of God? Hast thou come hither, before the right time, to torment us?

and, the demons, began to beseech him, saying, If thou dost cast us out, send us away, into the herd of swine.

And he said unto them, Withdraw! So, they, going out, departed into the swine, - and lo! all the herd rushed down the cliff, into the sea, and died in the waters.

And, they who were feeding them, fled, - and, departing into the city, reported all things, and what concerned them who had been demonized.

And lo! all the city, came out to meet Jesus, - and, seeing him, they besought that he would pass on from their bounds.

And Jesus, knowing, their inward thoughts, said, - To what end are ye cherishing evil thoughts within your hearts?

And it came to pass, as he was reclining in the house, that 1o! many tax-collectors and sinners, came, and were reclining together with Jesus and his disciples.

And, the Pharisees, observing it, began to say unto his disciples, - Wherefore, with tax-collectors and sinners, doth your Teacher eat?

And, he, hearing it, said, - No need have the strong, of a physician, but they who are sick.

But go ye, and learn what this meaneth, - Mercy, I desire, and not, sacrifice; For I came, not to call the righteous, but sinners.

Howbeit, no one, layeth on a patch of unshrunk cloth, upon an old garment, - for the shrinking of it teareth away from the garment, and, a worse rent, is made.

Neither pour they new wine into old skins: otherwise at least, the skins are burst, and, the wine, runneth out, and, the skins, are spoiled, - but they pour new wine into unused skins, and, both, are together preserved.

Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it done unto you.

And, the demon being cast out, the dumb man spoke; and the multitudes marvelled, saying, - Never, was it seen thus, in Israel.

But, the Pharisees, beg to say, In the ruler of the demons, is he casting out the demons.

And, calling near his twelve disciples, he gave them authority over impure spirits, - so as to be casting them out, and curing every disease and every infirmity.

Be curing, the sick, raising, the dead, - cleansing, lepers, casting out, demons: freely, ye have, received, freely, give.

And, into whatsoever city or village ye enter, search out who in it is, worthy, and, there, abide, till ye go forth.

And, as ye enter the house, salute it;

And, if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it, but, if it be not worthy, let your peace, unto you, return.

Verily, I say unto you, - More tolerable, will it be, for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for, that, city!

And, when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak, - for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak;

For it is not, ye, who are speaking, but, the Spirit of your Father, that is speaking in you.

What I am saying to you in the darkness, tell ye in the light, - and, what whispered into the ear ye are hearing, proclaim ye on the housetops.

For I came to set at variance - a man, against, his father, and, a daughter, against, her mother, and, a bride, against, her mother-in-law;

He that hath found his life, shall lose it, - and, he that hath lost his life, for my sake, shall find it.

And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished giving instructions to his twelve disciples, he passed on from thence, to be teaching and proclaiming in their cities.

And, answering, Jesus said unto them - Go report unto John what ye do hear and see: -

But, as these were going their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes, concerning John, - What went ye forth into the wilderness to gaze at? A reed, by a wind, shaken?
