And the apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.

then Jesus said to them, come, let us retire privately to some place of solitude, to repose your selves a while. for such a crowd of people were continually coming and going, that they had not even time to eat.

So, they [i.e., Jesus and His apostles] left by boat and went to a separate place [where they could be] alone.

And Jesus went out and saw much people, and had compassion on them, because they were like sheep which had no shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.

Jesus replied, do you your selves give them something to eat. shall we go then, said they, to purchase bread, to the value of two hundred denarii, for them to eat?

Jesus directed them to make all the people take their seats on the green grass, in parties;

Jesus then having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, look'd up to heaven and gave thanks; then breaking the loaves, he gave them to his disciples to distribute among the people: for whom he likewise divided the two fishes.

Jesus immediately had his disciples get into a boat and cross to Bethsaida ahead of him, while he sent the crowd away.

It was now late in the evening, and the bark in full sea, when Jesus, who was ashore all alone,

Seeing them laboring at the oars--for the wind was against them--about three hours after midnight Jesus came towards them, walking on the water, intending to join them.

for they all saw him, and were greatly terrified. but at the instant Jesus spoke to them, and said, take courage, it is I, don't be afraid.

but they did not understand [the miracle] of the loaves because their minds were insensitive [i.e., to the nature and power of Jesus].

As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus.

The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus.

And they saw that some of Jesus' disciples ate their bread with unclean hands, that is, unwashed.

So the Pharisees and the scribes asked Jesus, "Why don't your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with unclean hands."

Jesus answered, to such hypocrites as you may well be applied those words of the prophet Esaias, "this people honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Then Jesus having called all the people to him, said, attend every one of you, and understand.

Now when Jesus had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about the parable.

"What, do even you understand so little?" exclaimed Jesus. "Do not you see that there is nothing external to a man, which by going into a man, can 'defile' him,

Because it does not pass into his heart, but into his stomach, and is afterwards got rid of?--in saying this Jesus pronounced all food 'clean.'

Jesus left that place and went to the territory of Tyre and Sidon. He went into a house, not wanting anyone to know he was there. However, it couldn't be kept a secret.

But just then a woman whose little daughter was dominated by an evil spirit heard about Jesus and came and fell down at His feet.

And Jesus said unto her, "Let the children first be fed. For it is not meet, to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto whelps."

then said Jesus to her, for this expression, go thy way, the demon has left your daughter.

Then Jesus left the territory of Tyre and passed through Sidon towards the Sea of Galilee, in the territory of the Decapolis.

They brought to Him a man who was deaf and had difficulty speaking, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.

So Jesus took him aside from the crowd, by himself, and put his finger in the man's ears, and moistened his tongue with saliva;

Then Jesus charged them not to tell any one, but the more he charged them, the more they published it;

In those days when there was a very great company, and had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said unto them,

Jesus calling his disciples saith to them, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat.

Jesus told the crowd to sit down upon the ground. Then he took the seven loaves, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve out; and they served them out to the crowd.

There were about four thousand people. Then Jesus dismissed them.

Immediately afterwards, getting into the boat with his disciples, Jesus went to the district of Dalmanutha.

The Pharisees arrived and began arguing with Jesus. They tested him by demanding from him a sign from heaven.

At this Jesus sighed deeply in his spirit, and said: "Why does the present generation seek a sign? In solemn truth I tell you that no sign shall be given this generation."

Now Jesus' disciples had forgotten to take [any] food [with them], and had only one loaf of bread in the boat.

Jesus had been warning them, "Watch out! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!"

they said to one another, this is because we did not take bread: which Jesus perceiving,

And when Jesus knew that, he said unto them, "Why take ye thought because ye have no bread? Perceive ye not yet, neither understand? Have ye your hearts yet blinded?

Then they came to Bethsaida, where some people brought a blind man to Jesus, and begged him to touch him.

Jesus took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. He spit into his eyes, placed his hands on him, and asked him, "Do you see anything?"

Then Jesus again put his hands on the man's eyes; and the man, staring straight ahead, recovered his sight and continued to see everything perfectly.

Then Jesus sent him home, saying, "Do not even go into the village."

And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns that belong to the city called Caesarea Philippi, and by the way he asked his disciples saying, "Whom do men say that I am?"

Peter answered him, "You are the Messiah!" Jesus sternly ordered them not to tell anyone about him.

Then Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and experts in the law, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

This statement he made openly. But Peter took Jesus aside, and began to rebuke him.

Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. But turning and looking at his disciples, Jesus rebuked Peter, saying, "Get behind me, Satan, because you're not thinking God's thoughts, but human thoughts!"

Then Jesus called the crowd to himself along with his disciples and told them, "If anyone wants to follow me, he must deny himself, pick up his cross, and follow me continuously,

And Jesus said to them, “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste (experience) death before they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power.”

And after six days, Jesus took Peter, James, and John and led them up into a high mountain out of the way alone, and he was transfigured before them.

And there appeared unto them Elijah with Moses: and they talked with Jesus.

And Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Master, here is good being for us, let us make three tabernacles: one for thee, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

And suddenly, they looked round about them and saw no man, more than Jesus only with them.

On their way down the mountain, Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

"How is it," they asked Jesus, "that our Teachers of the Law say that Elijah has to come first?"

"Elijah does indeed come first," answered Jesus, "and re-establish everything; and does not Scripture speak, with regard to the Son of Man, of his undergoing much suffering and being utterly despised?

The whole crowd was very surprised to see Jesus and ran to welcome him.

"What are you arguing about with them?" Jesus asked.

"O unbelieving generation!" replied Jesus; "how long must I be with you? How long must I be patient with you? Bring him to me."

So they brought the boy to him, and when he saw Jesus, the spirit at once convulsed him, and he fell to the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.

Then Jesus asked the father, "How long has he been like this?"

And Jesus said unto him, "Yea if thou couldest believe, all things are possible to him that believeth."

When Jesus saw that the people came running together unto him, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, "Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee come out of him, and enter no more into him."

But Jesus caught his hand, and lift him up, and he rose.

When Jesus had gone into the house, his disciples asked him in private, "Why could not we cast it out?"

Jesus answered, such a miracle is not effected but by prayer and fasting.

Jesus and his disciples, after leaving that place, passed through Galilee; but he was unwilling that any one should know it,

Then they came to Capernaum. While Jesus was at home, he asked the disciples, "What were you arguing about on the road?"

Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said: "If any one wishes to be first, he must be last of all, and servant of all."

Then Jesus took a little child, set it among them, and folding it in his arms, he said,

John told Jesus, "Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name. We tried to stop him, because he wasn't a follower like us."

But Jesus said, "Forbid him not. For there is no man that shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.

On leaving that place Jesus came into the borders of Judea, on the other side of the Jordan, Once more the people flocked about him, and again, as usual, he began teaching them.

Some Pharisees came up to Jesus, testing Him, and began to question Him whether it was lawful for a man to divorce a wife.

"What direction did Moses give you?" replied Jesus.

And Jesus answered, and said unto them, "For the hardness of your hearts he wrote this precept unto you.

When indoors the disciples began to question Jesus again about this, and he said:

Now people were bringing little children to Jesus for him to touch them; but the disciples rebuked them.

When Jesus saw that, he was displeased, and said to them, "Suffer the children to come unto me and forbid them not. For of such is the kingdom of God.

As Jesus was setting out again, a man ran up to him, knelt down in front of him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

Jesus said to him, "Why callest thou me good? There is no man good but one, which is God.

Jesus beheld him, and had a favour to him, and said unto him, "One thing is lacking unto thee. Go, and sell all that thou hast, and give it to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me, and take up thy cross on thee."

But his face fell at Jesus' words, and he went away much cast down, for he had a great deal of property.

And Jesus looked round about, and said unto his disciples, "What a hard thing it is for them that have riches enter into the kingdom of God."

And his disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answered again, and said unto them, "Children: how hard is it for them, that trust in their riches, to enter into the kingdom of God?

Jesus looked upon them, and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible."

Then Peter thus address'd himself to Jesus, you see we have left every thing to follow you.

Jesus answered and said, "Verily I say unto you, there is no man that hath forsaketh house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, other children, or lands, for my sake and the gospel's,

And they were in the way, going up to Jerusalem. And Jesus went before them. And they were amazed. And as they followed, were afraid. And Jesus took the twelve again, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him.

Once again, Jesus took the Twelve aside and began to tell them what was going to happen to him. "Pay attention! We're going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be handed over to the high priests and the scribes, and they'll condemn him to death. Then they'll hand him over to the unbelievers,

James and John, the sons of Zebedee, went to Jesus and told him, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask you."

But Jesus said unto them, "Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink of the cup, that I shall drink of? And be baptised in the baptism that I shall be baptised in?"

And they said unto him, "That we can." Jesus said unto them, "Ye shall drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and be baptised with the baptism that I shall be baptised in:

Jesus told them, "You will drink from the cup that I'm going to drink and be baptized with the baptism with which I'm going to be baptized. But it's not up to me to grant you a seat at my right or my left. Those positions have already been prepared for others."

When they heard this the ten began to be indignant at James and John, so Jesus called them to him and said:

But Jesus called them unto him, and said to them, "Ye know well that they which seem to bear rule among the gentiles, reign as Lords over them. And they that be great among them exercise authority over them.

Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus, his disciples, and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus (that is, the son of Timaeus) was sitting by the road.

And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry and to say, "Jesus, the son of David, have mercy on me."
