But evening being come, when the sun had gone down, they brought to him all that were suffering, and those possessed by demons;

And Jesus healed many who were suffering with various diseases; and He drove out many demons, but would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him [recognizing Him as the Son of God].

But Simon and his companions hastened after him;

But Jesus said to them: "Let us go somewhere else, into the country towns near, that I may make my proclamation in them also; for that was why I came."

But Jesus, moved with compassion, having stretched out his hand, touched him, and says to him, I will, be thou cleansed.

But Jesus at once drove him out of their presence, and gave him this stringent charge:

And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

But Jesus, seeing their faith, says to the paralytic, Child, thy sins are forgiven thee.

But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

But when the Scribes of the Pharisee sect saw Him eating with the sinners and the tax-gatherers, they said to His disciples, "He is eating and drinking with the tax-gatherers and sinners!"

How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

But He said to the man with the withered hand, "Get up in the crowd."

And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.

But they held their peace. And looking round upon them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth: and his hand was restored.

But no sooner had the Pharisees left the synagogue than they held a consultation with the Herodians against Jesus, to devise some means of destroying Him.

But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,

But He many a time checked them, forbidding them to say who He was.

Then He came to a house [in Capernaum], and a crowd formed again, so [many people] that Jesus and His disciples could not even eat a meal [together].

But the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, "He has Beelzebul," and "It is by the prince of daemons that he casts out daemons."

Some falls on the rocky ground where it finds but little earth, and it shoots up quickly because it has no depth of soil;

But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

Some of the seed fell among brambles; but the brambles shot up and completely choked it, and it yielded no return.

But some of the seed falls into good ground, and gives a return: it comes up and increases, and yields thirty, sixty, or a hundred-fold."

But when they were alone, those who were about him with the twelve, asked him the meaning of the parable.

And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

so that they will continually look but not see, and they will continually hear but not understand, otherwise they might turn [from their rejection of the truth] and be forgiven.”

but if, said he, you don't comprehend this easy parable, how can ye understand any of the rest?

And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

And these are they likewise who have received the seed on stony ground, who when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy: But have not root in themselves, and so indure but for a time:

And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

but the worries of this age, the seduction of wealth, and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

But the ones sown on good ground are those who hear the word, welcome it, and produce a crop: 30, 60, and 100 times what was sown.”

For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

because whoever has something, will have more given to him. But whoever has nothing, even what he has will be taken away."

But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

And in many such parables spake He the word to them, as they had ability to hear it: but spake not to them without a parable.

But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

But Jesus was in the stern, asleep [with His head] on the [sailor’s leather] cushion. And they woke Him and said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are about to die?”

But they were struck with great awe, and said to one another: "Who can this be that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

For he had often been bound with shackles [for the feet] and with chains, and he tore apart the chains and broke the shackles into pieces, and no one was strong enough to subdue and tame him.

But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

As he was getting into the boat the man who had been demon-possessed kept begging to go with him; but he said,

Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.

But the man went away and began telling people throughout Decapolis about all of the great things Jesus had done for him. [Note: "Decapolis" means "ten cities" and was a region located east of the Jordan River].

And there was a woman who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years ??26 she had suffered a great deal under a number of doctors and had spent all her means but was none the better; in fact she was rather worse.

And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

but having heard of Jesus; she came behind him in the crowd, and touched his garment.

For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

But the disciples kept saying to Him, "You see the crowd jostling you, and yet you ask, 'Who touched me?'"

But He continued looking about to see the person who had done this,

But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

But he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be well from your suffering."

But Jesus, not heeding the word spoken, saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.

And he did not let anyone come with him, but Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

but He gave strict injunctions that the matter should not be made known, and directed them to give her something to eat.

But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.

[But] He marveled at the people's lack of faith. So, He traveled and taught throughout the [surrounding] villages.

And he said that they were to take nothing for their journey, but a stick only; no bread, no bag, no money in their pockets;

And king Herod heard of him (for his name was spread abroad), and he said, John the Baptizer hath risen from the dead, and therefore do these powers work in him. But others said, It is Elijah.

But others said, It is Elijah. And others said, It is a prophet, even as one of the prophets.

But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.

For it was Herod himself who had sent for John and had him arrested and chained up in prison. He did this to please Herodias, who was [i.e., had been] his brother Philip's wife, but whom Herod had married.

Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:

for Herod was afraid of John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he kept him safe. And when he heard him, he was very perplexed; but he used to enjoy listening to him.

But an opportune time [finally] came [for Herodias]. Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his officials (nobles, courtiers) and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

But she went out, and said to her mother: What shall I ask? She replied: The head of John the Immerser.
