and all the land of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem, kept going out to him, and were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.

But he went out and began to tell every one and to publish it broadcast, so that Jesus could no longer enter any town openly; but he had to remain outside in lonely places, and people kept coming to him from every quarter.

Then Jesus went again to the seaside, and the whole crowd kept coming to him, and he taught them.

And they kept watching Jesus to see whether he would cure him on the Sabbath; so as to have some charge to bring against him.

Because they kept saying, "He has an unclean spirit."

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

"If I can touch even his clothes," she kept saying to herself, "I shall get well."

But he kept looking about to see who had done it,

but she could not, for Herod was afraid of John because he knew that he was a just and holy man. So he kept him safe. When he listened to John he was much exercised, yet he found pleasure in listening to him.

Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven he blessed, broke the loaves in pieces, and kept giving to the disciples to distribute.

This order they faithfully kept, questioning among themselves what "rising again from the dead" meant.

and many kept rebuking him and telling him to be quiet, but he only shouted much louder, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

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 they kept seeking to lay hold on him, but were afraid of the crowd, for they knew well that he had spoken this parable about them; so they left him and went away.

and they were glad when they heard it, and promised to pay him money. So he kept looking for an opportunity to betray him.

But Peter kept protesting passionately, "Though I must die with you, I will not disown you!" And they all kept saying the same.

"Why, what wrong has he done?" Pilate kept saying. But they shouted furiously, "Crucify him!"

They kept striking him on the head with a rod, and spitting upon him; and on bended knee they did him homage.

And the passers-by kept jeering at him, wagging their heads and saying. "Ah! you who were to 'destroy the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days,' save yourself!

In the same way the high priests also, as well as the Scribes, kept on mocking him to themselves. "He saved others," they said, "but himself he cannot save.

The Christ! The King of Israel! Let him now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe." They also who had been crucified with Jesus kept reviling him.

and they kept saying to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?"
