And John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.

And it came about in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was given baptism by John in the Jordan.

And news of him went out quickly everywhere into all parts of Galilee round about.

And when he came into Capernaum again after some days, the news went about that he was in the house.

And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.

And Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?

And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.

And it came about that on the Sabbath day he was going through the grain-fields; and while they were walking, his disciples took the heads of grain.

And the Pharisees went out, and straight away made designs with the Herodians about how they might put him to death.

And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and the other side of Jordan, and the country about Tyre and Sidon, a great number, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

And looking round at those who were seated about him, he said, See, my mother and my brothers!

And he gave them teaching about a number of things in the form of stories, and said to them in his teaching, Give ear:

And when he was by himself, those who were round him with the twelve put questions to him about the purpose of the stories.

And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?

And he let them do it. And the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they came to their death in the sea.

And the young girl got up straight away, and was walking about; she being twelve years old. And they were overcome with wonder.

And he was greatly surprised because they had no faith. And he went about the country places teaching.

And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.

Send them away, so that they may go into the country and small towns round about, and get some food for themselves.

And seeing that they had trouble in getting their boat through the water, because the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have gone past them;

For it was not clear to them about the bread; but their hearts were hard.

And went running through all the country round about, and took on their beds those who were ill, to where it was said that he was.

And when he had gone into the house away from all the people, his disciples put questions to him about the saying.

And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.

But he, turning about, and seeing his disciples, said sharply to Peter, Get out of my way, Satan: for your mind is not on the things of God, but on the things of men.

And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any longer, but Jesus only with themselves.

But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they have done to him whatever they were pleased to do, even as the Writings say about him.

And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great mass of people about them, and scribes questioning them.

And he said, What are you questioning them about?

And they took him to him: and when he saw him, the spirit in him straight away became violent; and he went down on the earth, rolling about and streaming at the lips.

But the saying was not clear to them, and they were in fear of questioning him about it.

And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house, he put the question to them, What were you talking about on the way?

But they said nothing: because they had had an argument between themselves on the way, about who was the greatest.

And in the house the disciples put questions to him again about this thing.

And Jesus, looking round about, said to his disciples, How hard it is for those who have wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

And they said to him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, You will take of the cup from which I take; and the baptism which I am about to undergo you will undergo:

And he went into Jerusalem into the Temple; and after looking round about on all things, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.

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.

And he gave them teaching in the form of stories. A man had a vine-garden planted, and put a wall about it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and put up a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.

But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

And in his teaching he said, Be on your watch against the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes and be respected in the market-places,

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.

And a certain young man went after him, with only a linen cloth about his body; and they put their hands on him;

But, with curses and oaths, he said, I have no knowledge of the man about whom you are talking.
