But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—He *said to the paralytic,

When His own people heard of this, they went out to take custody of Him; for they were saying, “He has lost His senses.”

If Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but he is finished!

but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”—

because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”

And He was saying, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

And He was saying to them, “To you has been given the mystery of the kingdom of God, but those who are outside get everything in parables,

These are the ones who are beside the road where the word is sown; and when they hear, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.

For nothing is hidden, except to be revealed; nor has anything been secret, but that it would come to light.

If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

For whoever has, to him more shall be given; and whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.”

But when the crop permits, he immediately puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

And He did not let him, but He *said to him, “Go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He had mercy on you.”

And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace and be healed of your affliction.”

While He was still speaking, they *came from the house of the synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; why trouble the Teacher anymore?”

And entering in, He *said to them, “Why make a commotion and weep? The child has not died, but is asleep.”

And King Herod heard of it, for His name had become well known; and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead, and that is why these miraculous powers are at work in Him.”

But when Herod heard of it, he kept saying, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen!”

[If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”]

And He said to her, “Because of this answer go; the demon has gone out of your daughter.”

They were utterly astonished, saying, “He has done all things well; He makes even the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.”

And Jesus was saying to them, “Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power.”

But I say to you that Elijah has indeed come, and they did to him whatever they wished, just as it is written of him.”

And He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.

It has often thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, take pity on us and help us!”

For He was teaching His disciples and telling them, “The Son of Man is to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill Him; and when He has been killed, He will rise three days later.”

What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”

Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel’s sake,

But to sit on My right or on My left, this is not Mine to give; but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”

And Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and began following Him on the road.

and *said to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here.

If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ you say, ‘The Lord has need of it’; and immediately he will send it back here.”

Being reminded, Peter *said to Him, “Rabbi, look, the fig tree which You cursed has withered.”

For those days will be a time of tribulation such as has not occurred since the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will.

“Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.

But some were indignantly remarking to one another, “Why has this perfume been wasted?

But Jesus said, “Let her alone; why do you bother her? She has done a good deed to Me.

She has done what she could; she has anointed My body beforehand for the burial.

Truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of in memory of her.”

And He *came the third time, and *said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough; the hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

Every day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this has taken place to fulfill the Scriptures.”

But Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has He done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify Him!”

And he *said to them, “Do not be amazed; you are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen; He is not here; behold, here is the place where they laid Him.

He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.
