The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God: As it is written in the prophets,

And they were astonished at his teaching; for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

And he arose and followed him. And as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many, and they followed him.

And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

And he went thro' the corn-fields on the sabbath day: and his disciples as they went, plucked the ears of corn.

For he had healed many, so that they rushed in upon him, as many as had plagues.

And they come into an house: And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

And as he sowed, some fell by the way-side, and the birds of the air came and devoured it.

And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground,

And with many such parables spake he the word to them, as they were able to hear.

And having sent away the multitude, they take him as he was in the boat. And there were with him other little vessels.

And as he came out of the boat, there met him immediately out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

And as he went into the boat, he that had been possessed with the devils, besought him, that he might be with him.

Others said, It is Elijah: and others said, It is a prophet, as one of the prophets.

When the daughter of Herodias had come in and danced and pleased Herod, and his guests, the king said to the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.

And he sware to her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask me, I will give thee, to the half my kingdom.

And she went out and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

And he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while. For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

And Jesus coming out saw a great multitude, and was moved with tender compassion for them; because they were as sheep having no shepherd, and he taught them many things.

And wheresoever he entered into villages, cities, or country-places, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the hem of his garment; and as many as touched him were made whole.

Then the Pharisees ask him, Why walk not thy disciples, according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with defiled hands?

He answering said to them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

And looking up he said, I see men, as trees walking.

And his raiment became shining, exceeding white, as snow, such as no fuller on earth can whiten.

And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them to tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.

But I say to you, Elijah is come, as it is written of him: and they have done to him whatsoever they listed.

And having cried and rent him sore, he came out; and he was as dead, so that many said, He is dead.

But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

And he arose and cometh thence into the coasts of Judea, thro' the country beyond Jordan: and the multitudes resort to him again, and as he was wont, he taught them again.

Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.

And as he was going out into the way, one running and kneeling to him, asked him, Good Master, what shall I do, that I may inherit eternal life?

And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus went before them. And they were amazed, and as they followed, they were afraid. And taking the twelve again, he told them what things should befall him:

And James and John the sons of Zebedee come to him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us what we shall ask.

But Jesus said to them, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink of the cup that I drink of, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

And they come to Jericho. And as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, sat by the way-side begging.

at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples, And saith to them, Go ye into the village over against you, and as soon as ye enter it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat: loose and bring him.

And they said to them, as Jesus had commanded; and they let them go.

And on the morrow, as they were coming from Bethany, he was hungry.

Therefore I say to you, What things soever ye ask in prayer, believe that ye shall receive, and ye shall have them.

And they come again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders come to him and say to him, By what authority dost thou these things?

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

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

This is the first commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these.

And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices.

And Jesus answering, as he taught in the temple, said, How say the scribes, that Christ is the Son of David?

And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith to him, Master, see what manner of stones, and what manner of buildings!

And as he sat on the mount of Olives, over-against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creat`on, which God created until now, neither shall be.

For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

And he being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at table, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment, of spikenard, very costly; and shaking the box, she poured it on his head.

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

And in the evening he cometh with the twelve. And as they sat and ate,

The Son of man indeed goeth as it is written of him; but wo to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed: it had been good for that man, if he had not been born.

And as they ate, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.

And Jesus answering said to them, Are ye come as against a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me?

And as Peter was in the hall below, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest.

And the multitude crying aloud, desired him to do as he had ever done for them.

But go, tell his disciples, and Peter, He goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said to you.

She went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they were walking, going into the country.
