The voice of one crying aloud. In the desert make ready a road for the Lord. Make his paths straight.

He answered them. "Have you never read what David did when he was needy and hungry, he and his men?

and as he sowed, it happened that some seed fell on the road, and birds came and picked it up;

but when the sun rose it was scorched and withered away because it had no root.

but because they have no root in themselves they last for a time; but when suffering or persecution ensues because of the Word, they at once fall away.

When they got to Jesus they found the demoniac sitting there clothed and in his right mind??he man who had had the "Legion"??nd they were awestruck.

For John had often told Herod, "It is not right for you to live with your brother's wife."

Then they came to Capernaum; and when he got into the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the road?"

But they were silent, for on the road they were disputing together which one was greatest.

As he started to go forth into the road, a man came running up to him, and knelt down before him. "Good Teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

They were still on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus led the way; and they were amazed, and some, although they followed, were afraid. Then once more he took the Twelve, and began to tell them what was about to befall him.

They answered, "Allow us to sit, one at your right hand, and the other at your left hand, in your glory."

but a seat upon my right hand or my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been reserved."

Then they reached Jericho; and as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimeus, the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting beside the road.

"Go," said Jesus, "your own faith has saved you," and immediately he received his sight, and began to follow Jesus along the road.

Then many spread their cloaks on the road, and others, soft leafy branches, which they had cut from the fields;

and as they (he and his disciples) were passing along in the morning, they saw the fig tree already withered from the root.

"Have you not read this Scripture?" (he continued) "The very stone which the builders rejected Has now become the corner-stone;

So when they came, they said: "Teacher, we know that you are sincere and are not afraid of any one, for you do not regard the face of men; nay, but you reach the way of God in truth. Is it right to pay poll-tax to Caesar or not?

But in regard to the rising again of the dead, have you never read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, "I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

David himself said in the Holy Spirit, "The Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit at my right hand until I make thy foes the footstool of thy feet.'

but, "Not on a feast-day," they said, "for fear there should be a riot among the people."

"I am," Jesus answered, "and you all shall see the Son of man seated on the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven."

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

Now with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand and one on his left.

and upon entering the tomb they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a white robe.

So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
