And the Judean country, and the Jerusalemites, were going out to him, and all were being immersed by him in the river Jordan, acknowledging their sins.

And he was there in the desert forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was with wild beasts; and messengers were serving him.

And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, casting a large sweep-net in the sea: for they were fishermen.

And they were struck with amazement at his teaching; for he was teaching them as having power, and not as the scribes?

And all were amazed, so as to seek out with themselves, saying, What is this? what new teaching this? for with power also he commands the unclean spirits, and they listen to him.

And quickly many were gathered together, so as no more to have room, neither at the door: and he spake the word to them.

And not being able to draw near to him for the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was and having excavated, they let down his couch upon which the paralytic was laid.

And certain of the scribes were sitting there, and discussing in their hearts,

And Jesus quickly having known that they discuss in themselves, says to them, Why discuss ye these things in your hearts

Why is it easier to say to the paralytic, Sins have been remitted to thee? or to say, Arise, lift up thy couch, and walk?

And he was quickly raised up; and having lifted up the couch, he went forth before all, so that all were affected in mind, and praised God, saying, That we never saw it thus.

And it was in his reclining at table in his house, and many publicans and sinful reclined together with Jesus and his disciples: for they were many, and they followed him.

And the disciples of John, and of the Pharisees were fasting: and they come and say to him, Why do the disciples of John, and of the Pharisees fast, and the disciples to thee fast not?

And they were observing him narrowly, if in the sabbaths he will heal him; that they might accuse him.

And he says to them, Is it lawful in the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? to save a soul, or to kill? And they were silent.

And the Pharisees having come out, quickly with the Herodians were making counsel against him, that they might destroy him.

And other fell upon stony places, where it had not much earth; and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no deepness of earth:

And he said to them, To you has it been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to those without, all are in parables:

And these are they by the way, where the word is sown; and when they hear, quickly comes Satan, and takes away the word sown in their hearts.

And these are likewise they sown upon stony places; who, when they hear, quickly with joy receive it;

And have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then pressure having been or expulsion for the word, quickly are they scandalized.

And these are they sown in thorns; these are they hearing the word.

And these are they sown on good earth; who hear the word, and receive, and bear fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

And he said to them, Much less the light comes that it be set under a bushel, or under a bed; that it be not set upon a candlestick.

For the earth bears fruit spontaneously; first the grass, then the ear, then the full wheat in the ear.

And he said, To what should we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable should we hold it forth?

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

And having let the crowd go, they receive him as he was in the ship. And there were also other small vessels with him.

And he said to them, Why are ye so timorous? how have ye not faith?

For he had been bound many times with fetters and chains, and the chains were torn asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: and none could tame him.

And he asked him, What the name to thee? And he answered, saying, My name, Legion: for we are many.

And quickly Jesus permitted them. And the evil spirits having come forth, entered into the swine: and the herd rushed through the precipice into the sea, (and they were about two thousand;) and they were choked in the sea.

And they come to Jesus, and they see him possessed with the demon, sitting down, and being clothed, and of sound mind: and they were afraid.

And he went away, and began to proclaim in Decapolis what Jesus did to him: and all were wondering.

And they laughed at him. And he, having cast them all out, takes the father and mother of the young child, and those with him, and goes where the young child was lying.

And the little girl arose quickly, and walked; for she was of twelve years. And they were affected in mind with great amazement.

And sabbath having come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing were struck with amazement, saying, Whence to this one these things? and what this wisdom given to him, that such powers are done by his hands?

Is not this the carpenter, son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Jude, and Simon and are not his sisters here with us? And they were scandalized in him.

And as many as receive you not, nor hear you, going out thence, shake off the heap of dust under your feet for testimony to them. Truly I say to you, It shall be more supportable for the Sodomites or Gomorrhites in the day of judgment, than that city.

And they cast out many demons, and anointed many sick with oil, and they were cured.

And king Herod heard his name; (for it was manifest:) and said, That John the Immerser was raised from the dead, and for this the powers were energetic in him.

Others amid, That he is Elias. And others said, That he is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

And the sent are gathered to Jesus, and announced to him all things, whatever they did, and whatever they taught.

And he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart to a desert place, and rest a little: for many were coming and returning, and neither had they leisure to eat.

And the crowds saw them retiring, and many knew him, and they were running there on foot from all cities, and came before them, and came together to him.

And Jesus, having come out, saw a great crowd, and felt compassion for them, for they were as sheep having not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.

And they all ate, and were satisfied.

And they eating the loaves were about five thousand men.

For all saw him, and were troubled. And quickly he spake with them, and says to them, Take courage: I am; be not afraid.

And he went up to them to the ship; and the wind ceased, and they were greatly affected in mind above measure and wondered.

Running round about that whole country, began to bring the afflicted upon couches, where they heard that he is there.

And wherever he went, in towns, or cities; or fields, they set the sick in the market places, and besought him that they might even touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched him were saved.

And the Pharisees are gathered together to him, and certain of the scribes, having come from Jerusalem,

And from the market-place, except they be immersed, they eat not. And there are many other things which they received to hold; the immersion of cups, and of measures, and of brazen vases, and of chairs.)

And he said to them, Well do ye abrogate the command of God, that ye might keep your tradition.

For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and he reviling father or mother, in death let him die:

And ye say, If a man say to father or mother, Corban, which is, a gift, whatever thou be profited by me;

And ye permit him to do nothing more for his father or his mother

Abrogating the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.

There is nothing from without a man, entering into him, which can defile him: but things coming out from him, these are the things polluting the man.

And he says, So are ye also without understanding? Do ye not perceive, that anything from without entering into a man, cannot pollute him

And quickly his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake rightly.

And above measure were they struck with amazement, saying, Well has he done all things: he makes the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak.

And they ate, and were satisfied: and they took up the remains of the fragments, seven wicker-baskets.

And they eating were about four thousand: and he loosed them.

And Jesus having known, says to them, Why reason ye with yourselves, because ye have no loaves? observe ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?

Or what shall a man give for the exchange of his soul?

And he said to them, Truly I say to you, That some of those are standing here, who should not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God having come in power.

And his garments were shining, exceeding white, such as no fuller on earth can make white.

And Elias was seen to them, with Moses: and they were speaking together with Jesus.

For he knew not what he said; for they were terrified.

And immediately all the crowd; having seen him, were amazed, and running near greeted him.

And he having come into the house, his disciples asked him apart, Wherefore were we not able to cast him forth?

And they knew not the word, and were afraid to ask him.

And they were silent; for they discussed to one another in the way, who the greatest.

For whoever should give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because ye are of Christ, verily I say to you, he should not lose his reward.

Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

Where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

And Jesus, having answered, said to them, For your hard heart he wrote you this command.

And they two shall be in one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh.

And his disciples were amazed at his words. And Jesus again having answered, says to them, How difficult, children, is it for those trusting in property to enter into the kingdom of God!

And they were struck with amazement, excessively, saying to themselves, And who can be saved

And Jesus having beheld them says, With men impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.

And Jesus having answered, said, Truly I say to you, There is none who has left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for sake of me, and the good news,

And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was leading before them; and they were amazed; and following, they were afraid. And again taking the twelve, he began to say to them the things about to happen to him,

And it shall not be so among you: but whoever should wish to be great among you, shall be your attendant:

And many were rebuking him, that he should be silent: and he cried much more, Son of David, compassionate me.

Praised the kingdom coming in the name of the Lord of our father David : Osanna in the highest ones.

And the scribes and chief priests heard, and they sought how they might destroy him : for they feared him, for all the crowd were struck with amazement at his teaching.

And when ye stand praying, let go, if ye have any thing against any one : that also your Father, he in the heavens, might let go to you your falls.

And if ye do not let go, neither will your Father, he in the heavens, let go your falls.

And these husbandmen said with themselves, That this is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be our's.

This was of the Lord, and is wonderful in our eyes?

Should we give, or not give? And he knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a drachma that I might see it.

There were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

For when they arise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the messengers which in the heavens.
