I have baptised you with water: but he shall baptise you with the holy ghost."

And there came a voice out of the heavens: Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I have found my delight.

and saying- The season is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God hath drawn near, - Repent ye, and have faith in the glad-message.

saying, "Let me be: what have we to do with thou, Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee, what thou art, thou art even that holy man promised of God."

And the evil spirit caused the man to have a convulsion, then shouted with a loud voice and came out of him.

And he said to them, "Let us go elsewhere, into the neighboring rural towns, so that I can preach there also, because I have come out for this [very] reason."

And a leper came to him and, going down on his knees before him, made a request, saying, If it is your pleasure, you have the power to make me clean.

immediately Jesus sent him away, severely charging him, have a care,

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 Jesus having seen their faith, saith to the paralytic, 'Child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'

which is easier, to say to the paralytic, The sins have been forgiven to thee? or to say, Rise, and take up thy couch, and walk?

And he got up and immediately picked up his stretcher [and] went out in front of [them] all, so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, "We have never seen [anything] like this!"

When Jesus heard that, he said unto them, "The whole have no need of the Physician: but the sick. I came not to call the righteous, but the sinners to repentance."

And Jesus said unto them, "Can the children of a wedding fast, while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

But days will come when the bridegroom shall have been taken away from them, and then shall they fast in that day.

And he said to them, "Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was a hungered both he and they that were with him?

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.

Jesus told his disciples to have a boat ready for him so that the crowd wouldn't crush him,

And he went up into the mountain, and sent for those whom it was his pleasure to have with him: and they went to him.

And that they might have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out devils.

but the crowd gathered again, so that it was impossible even to have a meal.

Truly, I say to you, The sons of men will have forgiveness for all their sins and for all the evil words they say:

but he that blasphemeth the holy ghost shall never have forgiveness: but is in danger of eternal damnation."

And other [seed] fell on the rocky ground where it did not have much soil, and it sprang up at once, because it did not have [any] depth of soil.

And when the sun rose it was scorched, and because it did not have [enough] root, it withered.

'Though they have eyes, they may see without perceiving; And though they have ears, they may hear without understanding; Lest some day they should turn and be forgiven.'

And he saith to them, 'Have ye not known this simile? and how shall ye know all the similes?

And they that are by the wayside, where the word is sown, are they to whom as soon as they have heard it, cometh immediately Satan and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

And likewise, they that are sown on the stony ground: which when they have heard the word, at once they receive it with gladness;

yet have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: and anon, as soon as any trouble and persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they fall.

And others are they who are sown among the thorns: these are they who have heard the word,

When they have heard the Word, the anxieties of life and the snares of wealth, and all sorts of other ambitions, come in to choke the Word, so that it proves unfruitful.

And these are they who have been sown on the good ground, such as hear the word and receive it, and bear fruit; one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred fold.

If any man have ears to hear, let him hear."

For whoever has, [more] will be given to him, and whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him."

"It is with the kingdom of God," he continued, "as if a man should have sown seed in the earth;

whilst Jesus was at the stern, asleep on a pillow: upon which they awak'd him, crying out, master, have you so little concern to let us sink? then he rose,

and he said unto them, "Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith?"

and cried with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with thee, Jesus the son of the most highest God? I require thee in the name of God, that thou torment me not."

And made strong prayers to him, saying, My little daughter is near to death: it is my prayer that you will come and put your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and have life.

But, Jesus, overhearing the word being spoken, saith unto the synagogue-ruler - Do not fear, only have faith!

When the Sabbath came he began to teach in the synagogue. And the people were astonished when they heard him, and said, "Where did he get all this? How does he come to have such wisdom? How are such marvelous things done through him?

to have but one pair of shoes, and but one coat.

Now King Herod heard of Jesus; for his name had become well known. People were saying--"John the Baptizer must have risen from the dead, and that is why these miraculous powers are active in him."

John said unto Herod, "It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife."

Herodias laid wait for him, and would have killed him, but she could not.

upon which she instantly fled to the king, and said, I desire to have John the Baptist's head brought hither immediately in a charger.

And he said to them, "You yourselves come privately to an isolated place and rest for a short time." For those [who were] coming and going were many, and they did not even have time to eat.

So when Jesus landed, He saw a vast multitude; and His heart was moved with pity for them, because they were like sheep which have no shepherd, and He proceeded to teach them many things.

let them depart, that they may go into the country round about, and into the towns, and buy them bread: for they have nothing to eat."

He said unto them, "How many loaves have ye? Go and look." And when they had searched, they said, "Five, and two fishes."

Then he ordered them to have all the people sit down in groups on the green grass.

and he saw them troubled in rowing, for the wind was contrary unto them. And about the fourth quarter of the night, he came unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them.

but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost and shrieked aloud ??50 for they all saw him and were terrified. Then he spoke to them at once; "Courage," he said, "it is I, have no fear."

For they all saw him and were terrified. But immediately he spoke with them and said to them, "Have courage, I am [he]! Do not be afraid!"

And they came over, and went into the land of Gennesaret, and drew up into the haven.

And the Pharisees and certain of the Scribes who have come from Jerusalem gather themselves together unto him;

For the Pharisees and all of the Jews do not eat until they have ceremoniously washed their hands in obedience to the tradition of the elders;

And when they come from the market, except they wash themselves they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have taken upon them to observe, as the washing of cups and cruses, and of brazen vessels, and of tables.

"You give up what God has commanded and hold fast to what men have handed down.

Then he told them, "You have such a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to keep your own tradition!

For Moses said, Give honour to your father and mother, and, He who says evil of father or mother, let him have the punishment of death:

But you say, 'If a man says to his father or to his mother, "Whatever {benefit you would have received} from me [is] corban" (that is, a gift [to God]),

making the word of God of none effect through your own traditions which ye have ordained. And many such things ye do."

If any man have ears to hear, let him hear."

And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,

acts of greed and covetousness, wickedness, deceit, unrestrained conduct, envy and jealousy, slander and profanity, arrogance and self-righteousness and foolishness (poor judgment).

And from thence he rose and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into a house, and would that no man should have known of him: But he could not be hid.

And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.

Then he told her, "Because you have said this, go! The demon has left your daughter."

And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.

In those days there was again a large crowd, and they did not have anything they could eat. Summoning the disciples, he said to them,

"I have compassion on this people, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:

And if I send them away hungry to their homes they will give out on the way, and some of them have come from far away."

And his disciples answered him, "Where should a man have bread here in the wilderness to satisfy these?"

And he asked them, "How many loaves have ye?" They said, "Seven."

but Jesus fetching a deep sigh, said, why does this generation require a sign? I assure you, they shall have none.

And they had forgotten to take bread, and except [for] one loaf, they did not have [any] with them in the boat.

And they reasoned among themselves saying, "We have no bread."

And when Jesus knew that, he said unto them, "Why take ye thought because ye have no bread? Perceive ye not yet, neither understand? Have ye your hearts yet blinded?

Have ye eyes and see not? And have ye ears and hear not? Do ye not remember?

Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man would have to suffer a great deal and be rejected by the elders, the high priests, and the scribes. Then he would be killed, but after three days he would rise again.

But turning around [with His back to Peter] and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, “Get behind Me, Satan; for your mind is not set on God’s will or His values and purposes, but on what pleases man.”

For whoever wants to save his higher life, will have to give up the lower life, and whoever gives up his lower life for me and for the good news, will save the higher life.

What profit will a person have if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life?

Whoever has a feeling of shame because of me and my words in this false and evil generation, the Son of man will have a feeling of shame because of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

And he said unto them, "Verily I say unto you: There be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power."

And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them to give no account of what they had seen to any one, till the Son of man should have risen from the dead.

And they asked him saying, Why do the scribes say that Elias must first have come?

Moreover, I say unto you, that Elijah is come, and they have done unto him whatsoever pleased them, as it is written of him."

And one of the company answered, and said, "Master, I have brought my son unto thee, which hath a dumb spirit.

Whenever it brings on a seizure, it throws him to the ground. Then he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes stiff. So I asked your disciples to drive the spirit out, but they didn't have the power."

He replied, “O unbelieving (faithless) generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me!”

Then they [i.e., some people from the crowd] brought the sick boy to Jesus, and when the spirit saw Him, it immediately caused the boy to have convulsions and to fall to the ground and roll around, foaming at the mouth.

And often times casteth him into the fire, and also into the water, to destroy him. But if thou canst do anything, have mercy on us, and help us."

Straightway crying out, the father of the child was saying - I have faith! help my, want, of faith.

And they departed thence, and took their journey through Galilee, and would not that any man should have known it.

But, Jesus, said - Do not forbid him! For, no one, is there, who shall do a work of power in my name, and have power, soon, to revile me;

And whoever leads one of these lowly believers to do wrong, might better have a huge millstone hung around his neck and be thrown into the sea.

"If your hand cause you to stumble, cut it off! It is better to be maimed and to enter into life than to have two hands and go away into hell, into the fire that cannot be put out.
