And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called: and they called the blind, saying unto him, "Be of good comfort, rise, he called thee."

So they called the blind man and told him, "Have courage! Get up. He's calling you." He threw off his coat, jumped up, and went to Jesus.

And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethpage, and Bethany, besides Mount Olivet, he sent forth two of his disciples,

And they went their way, and found a colt tied by the door without, in a place where two ways met, and they loosed him.

So they answered as Jesus had told them, and the men allowed them to go.

Then they brought the colt to Jesus, and when they had put their clothes on it Jesus seated himself.

And many [people] spread their cloaks on the road, and others [spread] leafy branches [they] had cut from the fields.

And they that went before and they that followed, cried, saying, "Hosanna: blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Next day, when they had left Bethany, he felt hungry,

Then they came to Jerusalem, and entering the temple he proceeded to drive out those who were buying and selling inside the temple; he upset the tables of the money-changers and the stalls of those who sold doves,

This came to the ears of the scribes and high priests, and they tried to get him put to death, for they were afraid of him. But the multitude were all astounded at his teaching.

And when evening came they went out of the city.

Now as they passed in the morning they noticed the fig tree had withered to the root.

For this cause, I say unto you - All things, whatsoever ye are praying for and asking, believe that ye have received, and they shall be yours.

Once more they came to Jerusalem. And as he was walking within the temple the high priests and scribes and elders came

and they say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things?

Now they argued to themselves, "[What are we to say?] If we say, 'From heaven,' he will ask, 'Then why did you not believe him.'

No, let us say, From men" ??but they were afraid of the multitude, for the people all held John had been really a prophet.

So they replied to Jesus, "We do not know." Jesus said to them, "No more will I tell you what authority I have for acting as I do."

And they took him and scourged him, and sent him away without any thing.

And again he sent to them another servant; and at him they threw stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

And again he sent another; and him they killed. And he sent many others, some of whom they scourged, and some they killed.

Therefore, having yet one son, his beloved, he sent him also to them last, saying, They will reverence my son.

And they took him, and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.

What will the owner of the Vineyard do?" "He will come and put the tenants to death," they said, "and will give the vineyard to others."

Have ye not even read this scripture, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone:

And they sought to take him, but feared the multitude; for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them; and they left him, and went away.

And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might entrap him in his words.

And they came and said to him: Teacher, we know that you are true, and that you care for no one; for you do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

They brought it; and he said to them: Whose image and superscription is this? They said to him: Caesar's.

And Jesus answered and said to them: Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar s, and to God the things that are God s. And they were astonished at him.

Then come to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

"Teacher," they said, "Moses has written this law for us, that if a man's brother dies leaving a wife but no child, his brother is to take the woman and raise offspring for his brother.

All seven left no children [behind when they died]. Finally, the woman also passed away.

Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, of which of them shall she be the wife? for the seven had her as a wife.

for they all married her. Jesus answered them, don't you see you are in a mistake, by being unacquainted with the scriptures, as well as with the power of God?

For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels in heaven.

But concerning the dead, that they do rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, at The Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

And in the course of his teaching he said, "Beware of the scribes! They like to walk about in long robes, to get saluted in the marketplaces,

and to have the front seats in the synagogues and the best places at dinners??40 men that eat up widows' houses and to cover it up make long prayers! They will get a far heavier sentence!"

They are the men that rob widows of their homes, and make a pretense of saying long prayers. Their sentence will be all the heavier."

Then He sat down in front of the collection-box and was watching the people as they dropped their money into it. And many rich people were dropping in large sums.

And he called unto him his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow cast in more than all they that are casting into the treasury:

For they all threw in of their abundance; but she out of her penury threw in all that she had, her whole living.

Many will come in my name, saying, 'I am [he],' and they will deceive many.

And when ye hear of wars, and rumors of wars, be not troubled; they must come to pass; but not yet is the end.

These are the beginning of sorrows. But take heed to yourselves; for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be scourged in the synagogues; and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

But when they lead you to deliver you up, be not anxious beforehand, nor premeditate what you shall speak; but what ever shall be given you in that hour, that do you speak; for it is not you that speak, but the Holy Spirit.

But, when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, standing where it ought not, he that readeth, let him, think, then, they who are in Judaea, let them flee into the mountains;

And if the Lord had not kept those days as short as they were, no one would have been saved [i.e., from the devastating destruction]. But for the sake of the elect [i.e., God's people], whom He chose, He kept those days short.

for there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, the elect.

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

And, then, will he send forth the messengers, and they will gather together his chosen - out of the four winds, from utmost bound of earth, unto utmost bound of heaven.

Although the sky and the earth will pass away [See II Pet. 3:10], my words will not pass away [i.e., they will certainly come true].

Now after two days was the feast of the passover and the unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him with subtlety, and kill him:

for they said, Not during the feast, lest haply there shall be a tumult of the people.

For this ointment might have been sold for above three hundred shillings, and given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

"Let her alone," said Jesus, as they began to find fault with her, "why are you troubling her? This is a beautiful deed that she has done for me.

And they, when they heard it, were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently deliver him unto them .

And on the first day of unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the passover, his disciples say unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and make ready that thou mayest eat the passover?

And the disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

So they made ready the Passover, and as night fell he came, with the Twelve.

And as they sat and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you shall betray me, even he that eateth with me.

They began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I?

And as they were eating, he took bread, and when he had blessed, he brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take ye: this is my body.

And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave to them: and they all drank of it.

And when they had sung a hymn, they went out unto the mount of Olives.

But Peter said to him, "Even if they all fall away, certainly I will not!"

But he spake exceedingly vehemently, If I must die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner also said they all.

And they come unto a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith unto his disciples, Sit ye here, while I pray.

And again he came, and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they knew not what to answer him.

A third time He came, and then He said, "Sleep on and rest. Enough! the hour has come. Even now they are betraying the Son of Man into the hands of sinful men.

Just then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived. A crowd armed with swords and clubs was with him. They were from the high priests, the scribes, and the elders.

And they laid hands on him, and took him.

And they all left him, and fled.

And a certain young man followed with him, having a linen cloth cast about him, over his naked body : and they lay hold on him;

They seized him, but he left the linen sheet and fled away naked.

And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and there come together with him all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

And the chief priests and the whole council sought for testimony against Jesus in order to put him to death; and they found none.

there were indeed several, who depos'd what was false against him: besides, what they deposed was insufficient.

Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, "Have you no answer? What is this that they are testifying against you?"

Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be worthy of death.

Some of those present began to spit at him, and to blindfold his eyes, and strike him, saying, as they did so, "Now play the Prophet!" and even the police-officers received him with blows.

But he again denied it. And after a little while again they that stood by said to Peter, of a truth thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilaean.

Immediately morning came, the high priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and all the Sanhedrin, and after binding Jesus they led him off and handed him over to Pilate.

And Pilate again asked him, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they accuse thee of.

"See, how many accusations they are making." But Jesus no longer made any answer, at which Pilate wondered.

Now at the feast he used to release unto them one prisoner, whom they asked of him.

For he was aware that the chief priests had turned Jesus over to him because of envy and resentment.

And they cried out again, Crucify him.

And Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, Crucify him.

And the soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

And they clothe him with purple, and platting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;

and they began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

And they smote his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the purple, and put on him his garments. And they lead him out to crucify him.

And they compel one passing by, Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them , that he might bear his cross.

And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.

And they crucify him, and part his garments among them, casting lots upon them, what each should take.
