And he said to them in answer, What did Moses say you were to do?

And the two will become one flesh; so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.

And they took to him little children, so that he might put his hands on them: and the disciples said sharp words to them.

And when Jesus saw it, he was angry, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not keep them away; for of such is the kingdom of God.

Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.

And while he was going out into the way, a man came running to him, and went down on his knees, saying, Good Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

And Jesus said to him, Why do you say I am good? no one is good but one, and that is God.

It is simpler for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a man of wealth to come into the kingdom of God.

Peter said to him, See, we have given up everything, and come after you.

Jesus said, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, because of me and the good news,

Saying, See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given up to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will give an order for his death, and will give him up to the Gentiles:

And Jesus made them come to him, and said to them, You see that those who are made rulers over the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.

But it is not so among you: but whoever has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant:

And Jesus said to him, What would you have me do to you? And the blind man said, Master, make me able to see.

And Jesus said to him, Go on your way; your faith has made you well. And straight away he was able to see, and went after him in the way.

And said to them, Go into the little town opposite: and when you come to it, you will see a young ass with a cord round his neck, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose, and come back with him.

And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? say, The Lord has need of him and will send him back straight away.

And they went away and saw a young ass by the door outside in the open street; and they were getting him loose.

And seeing a fig-tree in the distance with leaves, he went to see if by chance it had anything on it: and when he came to it, he saw nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for the fruit.

And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.

And Peter, having a memory of it, said to him, Master, see, the tree which was cursed by you is dead.

And Jesus, answering, said to them, Have God's faith.

Truly I say to you, Whoever says to this mountain, Be taken up and be put into the sea; and has no doubt in his heart, but has faith that what he says will come about, he will have his desire.

For this reason I say to you, Whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given to you, and you will have it.

And whenever you make a prayer, let there be forgiveness in your hearts, if you have anything against anyone; so that you may have forgiveness for your sins from your Father who is in heaven.

And Jesus said to them, I will put to you one question; give me an answer, and I will say by what authority I do these things.

And they gave thought to it among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not have faith in him?

But if we say, From men--they were in fear of the people, because all took John to be truly a prophet.

And they said in answer to Jesus, We have no idea. And Jesus said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.

This was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?

And they made attempts to take him; but they were in fear of the people, because they saw that the story was against them; and they went away from him.

Then they sent to him certain of the Pharisees and the Herodians, so that they might make use of his words to take him by a trick.

And when they had come, they said to him, Master, we are certain that you are true, and have no fear of anyone: you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God: Is it right to give taxes to Caesar or not?

Are we to give or not to give? But he, conscious of their false hearts, said to them, Why do you put me to the test? give me a penny, so that I may see it.

And they gave him one. And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it? And they said to him, Caesar's.

And Jesus said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's. And they were full of wonder at him.

And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,

Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.

And when Jesus saw that he gave a wise answer, he said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And every man after that was in fear of questioning him any more.

And Jesus, when he was teaching in the Temple, said, How do the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

And he took a seat by the place where the money was kept, and saw how the people put money into the boxes: and a number who had wealth put in much.

And he made his disciples come to him, and said to them, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has put in more than all those who are putting money into the box:

And when he was going out of the Temple, one of his disciples said to him, Master, see, what stones and what buildings!

And Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? there is not one stone here resting on another which will not be overturned.

Say when these things will be, and what will be the sign when these things are all about to be done.

And when you are taken and given up to be judged, do not be troubled about what to say: but whatever is given to you in that hour, say: because it is not you who say it, but the Holy Spirit.

But when you see the unclean thing which makes destruction, in the place where it has no right to be (let this be clear to the reader), then let those who are in Judaea go quickly to the mountains:

And say a prayer that it may not be in the winter.

And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it:

But take care; see, I have made all things clear to you before the time.

And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory.

Take an example from the fig-tree: when its branches become soft and put out their leaves, you see that the summer is near;

Even so, when you see these things taking place, you may be certain that he is near, even at the doors.

Truly, I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all these things are complete.

So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning;

And what I say to you, I say to all, Keep watch.

And truly I say to you, Wherever the good news goes out through all the earth, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.

And Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests, so that he might give him up to them.

And wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house, The Master says, Where is my guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?

And the disciples went out and came into the town, and saw that it was as he had said: and they made ready the Passover.

And while they were seated taking food, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will be false to me, one who is taking food with me.

The Son of man goes, even as the Writings say of him: but cursed is that man through whom the Son of man is given up! It would have been well for that man if he had never been given birth.

Truly I say to you, I will take no more of the fruit of the vine till the day when I take it new in the kingdom of God.

And Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you that you, today, even this night, before the cock's second cry, will say three times that you have no knowledge of me.

And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he said to his disciples, Be seated here while I say a prayer.

And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to you; take away this cup from me: but even so let not my pleasure, but yours be done.

And he came, and saw them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, are you sleeping? were you not able to keep watch one hour?

Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test; the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble.

And again he came and saw them sleeping, because their eyes were very tired; and they had nothing to say in answer.

And he came the third time, and said to them, Go on sleeping now and take your rest: it is enough; the hour has come; see, the Son of man is given up into the hands of evil men.

Get up, let us be going; see, he who gives me up is near.

I was with you every day in the Temple teaching, and you did not take me; but this is done so that the Writings may come true.

Now the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin were looking for witness against Jesus so that they might put him to death; and they were unable to get any.

And even so their witness was not in agreement.

And the high priest got up in the middle of them, and said to Jesus, Do you say nothing in answer? what is it which these say against you?

And Jesus said, I am: and you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.

And some put shame on him and, covering his face, gave him blows and said to him, Now say what is to come: and the captains took him and gave him blows with their hands.

And the girl saw him, and said again to those who were near, This is one of them.

But again he said it was not so. And after a little time, again those who were near said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; for you are a Galilaean.

And in the same minute, the cock gave a second cry. And it came to Peter's mind how Jesus had said to him, Before the cock's second cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And at this thought he was overcome with weeping.

And Pilate put a question to him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he, answering, said to him, You say so.

And Pilate again put a question, Do you say nothing in answer? see how much evil they say you have done.

But Jesus gave no more answers, so that Pilate was full of wonder.

For he saw that the chief priests had given him up through envy.

And they made one, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was going by, coming from the country, go with them, so that he might take his cross.

And they took him to the place named Golgotha, which is, Dead Man's Head.

Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.

And some of those who were near, hearing it, said, See, he is crying to Elijah.

And one of them went quickly and, getting a sponge full of bitter wine, put it on a rod, and gave it to him for drink, saying, Let be; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.

And when the captain, who was near, saw how he gave up his spirit, he said, Truly this man was a son of God.

And Pilate was surprised that he was dead; and, sending for the captain, he put a question to see if he had been dead for long.

And Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was put.

And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome, got spices, so that they might come and put them on him.

And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.

And when they went in, they saw a young man seated on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were full of wonder.

And he said to them, Do not be troubled: you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been put to death on the cross; he has come back from the dead; he is not here: see, the place where they put him!

But go, say to his disciples and to Peter, He goes before you into Galilee: there you will see him, as he said to you.

So then the Lord Jesus, after he had said these words to them, was taken up into heaven and took his seat at the right hand of God.

And they went out, preaching everywhere, the Lord working with them, and giving witness to the word by the signs which came after. So be it.
