And they come bringing to him a paralyzed man, being taken by four men.

And not being able to come near to him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was. And when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralyzed man lay.

And having seen their faith, Jesus says to the paralyzed man, Child, thy sins are forgiven thee.

Why does this man speak blasphemies this way. Who can forgive sins but one, God?

Which is easier, to say to the paralyzed man, Thy sins are forgiven thee, or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed and walk?

But that ye may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins (he says to the paralyzed man),

And he entered again into the synagogue, and a man was there who had a withered hand.

And he says to the man who had a withered hand, Stand up in the midst.

And having looked around on them with anger, being grieved at the callousness of their heart, he says to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored as the other.

And he appointed twelve men, so that they might be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,

But no man, having enter into the house of the strong man, can plunder his goods unless he first binds the strong man, and then he may plunder his house.

The man who sows sows the word.

If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.

And he said, Thus is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground,

And when he came out of the boat, straightaway there met him out of the sepulchers a man with an unclean spirit who had his habitation among the sepulchers.

And no man was able to bind him, not even with chains.

Because he was often bound with shackles and chains, and the chains were pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces. And no man had strength to subdue him.

For he said to him, Come out from the man, thou unclean spirit.

And they come to Jesus, and see the man who was demon-possessed, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind (the man who had the legion), and they were afraid.

And those who saw it related to them how it happened to the man who was demon-possessed, and about the swine.

And as he entered into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed besought him that he might be with him.

And he could do no mighty work there, none, except having laid his hands upon a few feeble men he healed them.

And having departed, they preached that men should repent.

And they cast out many demons, and anointed many feeble men with olive oil, and healed them.

And king Herod heard, for his name had become well known. And he said, John, the man who immerses, was raised from the dead, and because of this the powers work in him.

for Herod feared John, knowing him to be a righteous and holy man, and he protected him. And having heard of him--the many things he was doing--he even heard of him gladly.

And having become a convenient day, when Herod on his birthday made a dinner for his chiefs, and the high captains, and the leading men of Galilee,

And those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.

But in vain they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.

For having set aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men: washings of pots and cups and many other such like things ye do.

But ye say, If a man should say to his father or mother, Whatever ye might be benefited from me is Corban, that is, an offering,

There is nothing outside the man, entering into him that can defile him, but the things coming out of him those are the things that defile the man.

If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.

And he says to them, Are also ye so without understanding? Do ye not perceive that everything outside that enters into the man cannot defile him,

And he comes to Bethsaida, and they bring a blind man to him, and call for him so that he might touch him.

And having taken the hand of the blind man, he led him outside of the village. And having spat on his eyes, having laid his hands upon him, he questioned him if he sees anything?

And having looked up, he said, The men that I see, I see as trees walking.

Then again he put his hands upon his eyes, and made him look up. And he was restored, and saw all men clearly.

And he sent him away to his house, saying, Thou may neither go into the village, nor may tell any man in the village.

And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way he questioned his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?

And having departed from there, they passed through Galilee, and he did not want that any man would know it.

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

And having stood still, Jesus said for him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Cheer up. Arise, he calls thee.

and says to them, Go ye into the village opposite you, and straightaway as ye enter into it, ye will find a colt tied, on which none of men have ever sat. After untying it, bring it.

And if any man should say to you, Why are ye doing this? say ye, The Lord has need of it, and straightaway he sends it here.

And having responded, Jesus said to it, No man may eat fruit from thee, no more into the age. And his disciples heard it.
