AND Jesus being born in Bethlehem in Judea, in the days of Herod the king, behold Magi came from the East to Jerusalem, saying,

Then came Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.

But Jesus answered and said to him, Suffer me now; for thus, it becomes us to complete all righteousness. Then he suffered him;

and Jesus being baptized went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descend like a dove and come upon him.

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

Jesus said to him, Again it is written, You shall not try the Lord your God.

Then Jesus said to him, Get behind me Satan; for it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.

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

And when Jesus had finished these words the multitudes were astonished at his teaching;

And Jesus said to him, See that you tell no man, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses commanded for a testimony to them.

Jesus hearing wondered and said to those that followed him, I tell you truly, I have not found so great a faith with any one in Israel;

And Jesus said to the centurion, Go; as you have believed be it to you; and the servant was cured at that hour.

But Jesus said to him, Follow me, and let the dead bury their dead.

And behold all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him they besought him to depart from their bounds.

and behold they brought him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus seeing their faith said to the paralytic, Son, be of good courage; your sins are forgiven.

And Jesus observing their thoughts, said, Why do you think evil in your hearts?

And Jesus departing thence saw a man sitting at the custom-house, called Matthew; and he said to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

And he was reclining in the house, and behold, many publicans and sinners came and reclined with Jesus and his disciples.

And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then they shalt fast.

And Jesus turning around and seeing her, said, Daughter, be of good courage, your faith has cured you. And the woman was cured from that hour.

And Jesus coming into the house of the ruler, and seeing the musicians and the multitude making a tumultuous noise,

And as Jesus was departing thence two blind men followed him, crying and saying, Have mercy on us, Son of David!

And when he had gone into the house the blind men came to him, and Jesus said to them, Do you believe that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.

and their eyes were opened. And Jesus charged them strictly, saying, See that no one knows it.

And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease, and every infirmity.

These twelve Jesus sent out and charged them, saying; Go not into a way of gentiles, and enter not into a city of Samaritans,

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

And Jesus answered and said to them, Go and tell John what you see and hear;

And when they had gone, Jesus began to say to the multitudes, concerning John, What went you out to the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

AT that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the sabbath; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pick the heads and eat.

But Jesus knowing it departed thence, and great multitudes followed him; and he cured them all,

AND on that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake.

All these things spoke Jesus to the multitudes in parables; and without a parable spoke he not to them;

And when Jesus had finished these parables he departed thence,

And they were offended with him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his native country, and in his own house;

AT that time Herod the Tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

And his disciples went and took up the body and buried it, and came and told Jesus.

And when Jesus heard of it he departed thence in a ship to a solitary place by himself. And the multitudes hearing of it followed him on foot from the cities.

But Jesus said to them, They need not go away; give them food to eat.

But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Be of good courage; it is I; be not afraid.

And he said, Come. And Peter going down from the ship walked on the waters to go to Jesus.

and Jesus immediately stretching out his hand, took hold of him and said, Man of little faith, why did you doubt?

And Jesus going out thence departed to the regions of Tyre and Sidon.

Then Jesus answered and said to her, O woman, great is your faith! Be it to you as you wish; and her daughter was cured from that hour.

And returning thence Jesus came to the lake of Galilee, and going up on the mountain sat down there.

And great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, the blind, the dumb, the crippled, and many others; and they cast them at Jesus' feet, and he cured them;

And Jesus calling his disciples, said, I pity the multitude, for it is now three days that they have continued with me, and they have nothing to eat; I will not dismiss them fasting lest they faint by the way.

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

AND the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to Jesus to try him desired him to show them a sign from heaven.

And Jesus said to them, Observe and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

But Jesus knowing it, said, Why do you reason within yourselves, men of little faith, because you have not taken bread?

And Jesus answered and said to him, Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonas, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven.

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

Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any one will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

AND after six days Jesus took Peter, and James, and John, his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves.

And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you please, we will make here three tabernacles, one for you, 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 man, except Jesus alone.

And when they went down from the mountain Jesus charged them, saying, Tell no man the vision till the Son of man is raised from the dead.

Jesus answered and said, O unbelieving and perverse generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him here to me.

And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out of him, and the child was cured from that hour.

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

And Jesus said to them, On account of your unbelief. For I tell you truly, if you have a faith like a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Be removed thence to that place, and it shall be removed; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

And as they were returning in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered into the hands of men,

He said, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive taxes, or a tribute? From their children, or from strangers?

He said to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him; Then are the children free;

AT that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

Jesus said to him, I say not to you till seven times, but till seventy times seven.

AND when Jesus had finished these words he departed from Galilee, and came into the bounds of Judea beyond the Jordan;

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

He said to him, What? And Jesus said, this; You shall not kill; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not testify falsely;

Jesus said to him, If you will be perfect, go and sell your property, and give to the poor, and you shall have a treasure in heaven; and come and follow me.

And Jesus said to his disciples, I tell you truly, that a rich man will enter into the kingdom of heaven with difficulty.

But Jesus looking on them, said, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

And Jesus said to them, I tell you truly, that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, shall yourselves also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel;

And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took his twelve disciples aside privately, and said to them on the way,

But Jesus answered and said, You know not what you ask. Can you drink of the cup of which I am about to drink? They said to him, We can.

But Jesus called them to him, and said, You know that the rulers of the gentiles exercise lordship over them, and the great exercise authority over them; but it shall not be so among you.

And behold two blind men who sat by the way, hearing that Jesus was passing by cried, saying, Have mercy on us Lord, Son of David!

And Jesus stopped, and called them and said, What do you wish me to do for you?

And Jesus having compassion on them, touched their eyes; and immediately they recovered their sight and followed him.

And when they approached Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

And the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them,

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

And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all that sold and bought in the temple, and overturned the tables of the brokers, and the seats of those that sold doves,

and said to him, Do you hear what these say? And Jesus said to them, Yes. Have you never read, that out of the mouths of babes and nursing infants, you have perfected praise?

Jesus answered and said to them, I tell you truly, that if you have faith and doubt not, you shall not only do this of the fig tree, but if you should say to this mountain, Be taken up and be cast into the sea, it would be done;

AND Jesus having gone into the temple, the chief priests and elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? and who gave you this authority?

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

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