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."

Being, however, unable to get him near to Jesus, owing to the crowd, they removed the roofing below which Jesus was; and, when they had made an opening, they let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying.

And Jesus said: "Let any one who has ears to hear with hear."

Let all who have ears to hear with hear.

In the evening of the same day, Jesus said to them: "Let us go across."

As Jesus was getting into the boat, the possessed man begged him to let him stay with him.

But Jesus repeatedly cautioned them not to let any one know of it, and told them to give her something to eat.

So wherever he went--to villages, or towns, or farms--they would lay their sick in the market-places, begging him to let them touch only the tassel of his cloak; and all who touched were made well.

For while Moses said 'Honor thy father and thy mother,' and 'Let him who reviles his father or mother suffer death,'

"Let the children be satisfied first," answered Jesus. "For it is not fair to take the children's food, and throw it to dogs."

Calling the people and his disciples to him, Jesus said: "If any man wishes to walk in my steps, let him renounce self, take up his cross, and follow me.

"Rabbi," said Peter, interposing, "it is good to be here; let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

When, however, Jesus saw this, he was indignant. "Let the little children come to me," he said, "do not hinder them; for it is to the childlike that the Kingdom of God belongs.

And Jesus began to speak to them in parables: "A man once planted a vineyard, put a fence round it, dug a wine-press, built a tower, and then let it out to tenants and went abroad.

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

What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and put the tenants to death, and he will let the vineyard to others.

After this his enemies were eager to arrest him, but they were afraid of the crowd; for they saw that it was at them that he had aimed the parable. So they let him alone, and went away.

"Let her alone," said Jesus, as they began to find fault with her, "why are you troubling her? This is a beautiful deed that she has done for me.

Up, and let us be going. Look! my betrayer is close at hand."

"He saved others, but he cannot save himself! Let the Christ, the 'King of Israel,' come down from the cross now, that we may see it and believe." Even the men who had been crucified with Jesus reviled him.

And a man ran, and, soaking a sponge in common wine, put it on the end of a rod, and offered it to him to drink, saying as he did so: "Wait and let us see if Elijah is coming to take him down."
