In the desert came John who baptized, and preached a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

It was at that time that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan;

After John had been thrown into prison Jesus came into Galilee preaching the gospel of God.

"The time is now come," he said, "and the kingdom of God is near! Repent and believe the gospel."

so Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men."

So they came to Capernaum, and as soon as the Sabbath Day came he went into the synagogue and began to teach.

"What business have you with us, you Jesus of Nazareth? Are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy One of God."

But Jesus rebuked him, saying. "Be quit! Come out of him."

So the unclean spirit, after tearing him, came out of him with a loud cry;

So he came and took her hand and raised her up. The fever left her at once, and she began to wait upon them.

At evening when the sun had set, people came and brought to him all the sick and demon-possessed,

"Let us go away," he answered, "to the neighboring country towns, that I may preach there, too; because for that purpose I came forth."

While he was speaking his message, they came bringing to him a paralytic, carried by four men.

On hearing this Jesus said to them. "It is not the healthy who need a physician, but the sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

Now the disciples of John and the Pharisees were keeping a fast, and people came to ask him, "How is it that the disciples of John and the Pharisees are fasting, but your disciples are not?"

But the days will come when the Bridegroom will be taken away from them; then, on that day, they will fast.

"Stand up," Jesus said to the man with the withered hand, "and come forward."

As soon as they came out, the Pharisees plotted against him with the Herodians, in order to destroy him.

From Judea, too, and Jerusalem, and Idumea, and from beyond Jordan, and from the district of Tyre and Sidon, they came to him a vast multitude, because they heard what he was doing.

Then he went up the hillside and called to him those whom he chose, and they came to him.

When his relatives heard of it, they came to take possession of him, for they said, "He is out of his mind."

The Scribes also who had come down from Jerusalem, said, "He is Beelzebub," and, "He casts out demons by the power of the Prince of the demons."

Then his mother and his brothers came up, and standing outside, they sent a messenger to him to call him.

and as he sowed, it happened that some seed fell on the road, and birds came and picked it up;

But a great gale of wind came up, and the waves were dashing into the boat so that it began to fill.

Then they came to the country of the Gadarenes, on the opposite side of the sea;

and he had no sooner stepped out of the boat, than a man out of the tombs came to meet him, a man with an unclean spirit,

For Jesus was saying, "Foul spirit, come out of the man."

And he gave them leave. And out came the foul spirits and entered the swine; and the drove rushed down from the steep into the sea, in number about two thousand, and were choked in the sea.

Then after Jesus had recrossed in a boat to the other side, a vast multitude came crowding around him; so he stayed on the seashore.

Then one of the wardens of the synagogue, named Jairus, came up, and as soon as he saw Jesus, fell at his feet, with many entreaties,

"My little daughter," he said, "is dying. I beseech you, come and lay your hands on her, that she may recover and live."

She had heard about Jesus, so she came in the crowd behind and touched his cloak.

and the woman knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

While he was still speaking men came from the house of the warden of the synagogue to tell him, "Your daughter is dead, why trouble the Teacher any further?"

As they came to the house of the warden of the synagogue, he gazed upon a tumult, many weeping and wailing shrilly.

Then he took the child's hand and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," that is to say, "Little girl, I am speaking to you; arise!"

Jesus left that place, and accompanied by his disciples, came into his own part of the country.

When it came Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue; many, as they listened, were deeply impressed. "Where did he get all this?" they asked; "What is the wisdom that is given to this man, and miracles such as these that happen at his hands?

But when Herod heard, he said, "That John whom I beheaded has come back to life."

Then came a convenient day, when Herod on his birthday held a feast for his lords and generals and the leading men of Galilee,

at which the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced. She charmed Herod and his guests. "Ask me whatever you want," said the king to the young girl, "and I will give it to you."

So she came out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask for?" "The head of John the Baptist," she replied.

When John's disciples heard of this, they came, and took his body, and laid it in a tomb.

When the apostles had come back to Jesus, they told him all the things they had done, and all they had taught.

Then he said to them, "Come apart, yourselves, to a quiet spot, and rest a while." For there were many coming and going, and they could not get time even to eat.

Then when the day was now far spent, his disciples came to him and said: "This place is desert, and the day is now far spent.

And when evening came, the boat was half-way across the sea, while he was on shore alone;

One day the Pharisees came to him in a body with some Scribes who had come from Jerusalem.

and when they come from the market-place they do not eat without bathing first. and they have many other customs which they have received and observe, such as the washing of cups and jugs and copper pans.

Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet

Then he sent them away, got at once into the boat with his disciples. and came into the district of Dalmanutha.

And the Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, by way of testing him.

Then they came to Bethsaida, where some people brought a blind man to Jesus, and begged him to touch him.

"In solemn truth I tell you," he said, "there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God, come with power."

Then there came a cloud overshadowing them; and there came a voice out of the cloud. "This is my Son, my beloved. Listen to him."

As they came down the mountain he strictly forbade them to narrate to any one what they had seen, until after the Son of man had risen from the dead.

So they asked him, "How is it that the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?"

"Elijah does indeed first come," he said, "and restores all things, But how is it written about the Son of Man, that he will endure great suffering, and be rejected?

"Elijah indeed has already come," he added, "and they have done to him whatever they pleased, even as it is written of him."

And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit. "You dumb and deaf spirit," he said, "come out of him, I command you, and never enter him again."

So with a loud shriek it came out, after throwing the boy into convulsion after convulsion. The boy looked like a corpse, so that most of them said that he was dead.

Then they came to Capernaum; and when he got into the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the road?"

On leaving that place Jesus came into the borders of Judea, on the other side of the Jordan, Once more the people flocked about him, and again, as usual, he began teaching them.

Presently some Pharisees came up and tested him, by asking if it was lawful for a man to divorce his wife.

Jesus was indignant when he saw it, and said: "Let the little children come to me. Do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such.

As he started to go forth into the road, a man came running up to him, and knelt down before him. "Good Teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

Jesus loved him as he looked at him, and said: "One thing you lack. Go, sell all you have and give to the poor; and you shall have wealth in heaven; and come, follow me."

but shall receive a hundred times as much, now in this present world, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, lands??nd persecutions with them??nd in the world to come eternal life.

Presently there came up to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, and said, "Teacher, we wish you would do for us whatever we ask you."

and justly, for even the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life, a ransom for many."

The man threw off his cloak, sprang to his feet, and came to Jesus.

and those who went before him and those who came after kept shouting. "Hosanna! Blessed be He who comes in the name of the Lord!

and seeing a fig tree in the distance full of leaves, he came to see if he could find anything on it, and found on it nothing but leaves (for it was not the time of figs).

"But those tenants said to themselves. 'Here is the heir! Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

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."

Then came up some Sadducees, men who say there is no resurrection. They too questioned him, saying.

Just then up came one of the Scribes who had heard them arguing, and realized that Jesus had answered them admirably. "What commandment," he asked, "is the first of all?"

There came also a poor widow who dropped in two little coins, worth a cent.

Then he came and found them asleep, and he said to Peter. "Are you sleeping, Simon? Could you not keep watch one hour?

Keep watch, all of you, and pray that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.'

Then he came the third time, and said: "Sleep on now, and take your rest! It is over. My hour is come. Look! the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

At that instant, while he was yet speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, came up, and with him a mob armed with swords and clubs, sent by the high priests and Scribes and elders.

So he came and going straight up to Jesus he said:
