And they were all in astonishment, so that they questioned one another, saying, What is this? what is this new doctrine? that with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him?

But when the evening was come, after the sun was set, they brought unto him all that had illnesses, and the demoniacs.

And he said unto them, Let us go into the neighbouring towns, that I may preach there also; for unto this purpose came I forth.

and said to him, Take care, that thou speak not a word to any man: but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy purification, what Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

But he going out, began to proclaim it much, and to publish abroad an account of it, so that he could no more openly come into the city; but was without in desert places; and they came to him from all parts of the country.

AND again he entered into Capernaum after some days: and it was heard, that he was in the house;

and immediately many collected round him, so that there was no room, not even at the door; and he spake the word to them.

And instantly Jesus knowing by his spirit, that they reasoned thus among each other, said to them, Why reason ye about these things in your hearts?

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority upon earth to forgive sins, he saith to the paralytic,

And he arose instantly, and taking up his couch, went out before them all; so that they were all astonished, and glorified God, saying, We never before saw any thing like this.

And the scribes and the Pharisees seeing him eat with publicans and sinners, said to his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?

And they watched him if he would cure him on the sabbath; that they might accuse him.

And he spoke to his disciples that a little boat should be ready for him, because of the crowd, lest they should press upon him:

for he healed many; insomuch, that they thronged in upon him, that they might touch him, as many as had afflictive diseases.

And he repeatedly charged them, that they should not make him known.

and James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and surnamed them Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder:

And the multitude came together again, so that they were not able even to eat bread.

Even if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand:

and if a family be divided against itself, that family cannot be established.

Verily I say unto you, That all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and the blasphemies, whatsoever they may blaspheme:

For whosoever shall do the will of God, that person is my brother, and my sister, and mother.

AND again he began to teach by the sea side: and a vast multitude was assembled about him, so that he went into a vessel to sit down on the sea, and all the multitude was on the land close by the sea.

And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

That seeing they may see, yet not perceive; and hearing may hear, yet not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them.

For there is nothing hid, but that it should be brought to light, nor is any thing concealed, but that it should come into open day.

And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with the measure ye mete, shall it be measured back to you; and something over shall be given to you that hear.

For to him that hath, there shall more be given to him; but he that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him.

And he said, The kingdom of heaven is of that kind, as if a man should cast seed into his field;

but when it is sown, it groweth up and becomes greater than all herbaceous plants, and produceth vast branches; so that the birds of the air may roost under the shadow of it.

And a great hurricane arose, and the waves broke into the vessel, so that it was now full of water:

and he was in the stern, sleeping on a pillow: and they awoke him, and say unto him, Master, is it no concern to thee that we are perishing?

And he said to them, Why are ye so timorous? How is it that ye have not confidence?

And they were filled with the most reverential awe, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

and crying with a loud voice, said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus thou Son of God most high? I adjure thee by God, that thou dost not send me to torment.

And he entreated him much that he would not send them out of the country.

and all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

And they came to Jesus, and saw the demoniac that had the legion, seated and clothed, and in his sound mind: and they were afraid.

And when he embarked on board the vessel, the demoniac besought him, that he might go with him.

and entreated him importunately, saying, My little daughter is at the last gasp; wilt thou come, and lay thy hands upon her, that she may recover, and she shall live.

And instantly the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was cured of her afflictive disease.

And Jesus immediately perceiving in himself that miraculous power had gone forth from him, turning about in the crowd, said, Who touched my garments?

And he very strongly charged them that no person should know it; and ordered something to be given her to eat.

And when the sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many when they heard him were amazed, saying, Whence hath this man these things? and what is the wisdom given to him, that even such miracles are done by his hands?

And he could not do there any miracle, except that laying his hands on a few sick persons he cured them.

And he commanded them, that they should take nothing for the journey, except a staff only; neither scrip, nor bread, nor even brass money in their purse:

And as many as shall not receive you, neither hearken to you, when ye go from thence, shake off the dust from beneath your feet, for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.

And going forth, they preached, that men should repent.

Others said, That it is Elias; and others said, He is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

And he swore unto her, That whatsoever thou shalt ask, I will give thee, even to the half of my kingdom.

And she came in immediately with eagerness to the king, and asked, saying, I desire that thou wilt give me on the spot, in a charger, the head of John the Baptist.

And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and repose a little while: for there were multitudes coming and going, so that they had not even time to eat.

send them away, that they may go into the country places and villages around, and buy themselves bread; for they have nothing to eat.

And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, that they should set them before them, and the two fishes he divided among them all.

running through all parts of that country, they began to carry about on couches those who were afflicted with diseases, wherever they heard that he was.

And wherever they entered into villages or cities, or country places, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch, if but the fringe on his garment; and as many as touched it, were cured.

And seeing some of his disciples eating bread with hands unclean, that is, unwashed, they found fault.

And he said to them, Strangely do ye make void the command of God, that ye may observe your tradition.

For Moses said, "Honour thy father and thy mother:" and "he that curseth father or mother, let him assuredly be put to death."

But ye affirm, If a man say to his father or mother, it is Corban (that is, a gift), which otherwise might have been advantageous to thee from me;

There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him, can make him unclean: but the things which come out from him, these are the things which make a man unclean.

And he saith to them, Are ye also so defective of intelligence? Do you not consider, that every thing from without that entereth into a man, cannot make him unclean?

But, said he, what cometh out of a man, that makes a man unclean.

And rising, he departed thence into the confines of Tyre and Sidon; and entering into a house, desired that no man should know it: yet he could not be hid.

The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by birth, and she entreated him that the devil might be cast out of her daughter.

and looking up to heaven, he heaved a deep sigh, and saith unto him, Ephphatha! that is, Be opened.

And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged, the more abundantly they published it abroad.

And he commanded the multitude to recline in order on the ground: and taking the seven loaves, having given thanks he brake them, and gave to his disciples, that they should set before the people; and they distributed them to the multitude.

And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?

And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and entreat him that he would touch him.

And Jesus and his disciples went out into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and on the road he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?

And he said unto them, But who do ye say that I am? Then Peter answering, said unto him, Thou art the Messiah.

And he strictly enjoined them, that they should tell no man of this.

And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be slain, and after three days rise again.

But he turned himself around, and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou dost not relish the things which are of God, but those that are of men.

AND he said unto them, I tell you of a certainty, that there are some standing here who shall not taste of death, until they see the kingdom of God come with power.

And as they were coming down from the mountain, he strictly charged them, that they should tell no man what they had seen, till after the Son of man should have arisen from the dead.

And they caught at that word, considering among themselves what this rising from the dead could mean.

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

Then he answering said unto them, Elias indeed cometh first, and will reform all things; and how speaks the scripture of the Son of man? That he must suffer many things, and be treated with contempt.

But I say unto you, that Elias is come, and they have done to him whatsoever they chose, as it is written of him.

and wherever he seizeth him, he throws him into strong convulsions: and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and pines away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they should cast him out; and they were unable.

Then said Jesus unto him, This [is the point]: if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

Then Jesus, seeing that the multitude were running up to him, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter into him no more.

And screaming, and convulsing him violently, it came out: and the child lay as if dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

But they understood not the meaning of that declaration, and were afraid to ask him.

Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth not me merely, but him that sent me.

For he that is not against us, is for us.

And whosoever shall give occasion of offence to one of these little ones who believe in me, it were desirable for him rather that a milestone were hanged about his neck, and that he were cast into the sea.

And if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it were better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having both hands to go into hell, into the fire that never will be quenched:

Then Jesus answering said unto them, For the hardness of your hearts he wrote you that ordinance.

and they two shall be one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh.

And they brought unto him little children, that he should touch them: but his disciples rebuked those who brought them.

And as he went out to the road, a person ran to him, and kneeling down, asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

Then Jesus looking upon him, loved him, and said to him, In one thing thou art defective: go, sell all that thou hast, and give to the poor; and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up thy cross, and follow me.

And James and John the sons of Zebedee came to him, saying, Master, we desire that thou shouldst do for us whatsoever we request.

He said unto them, What will ye that I should do for you?

But Jesus called them, and said to them, Ye know that they who appear to rule over the Gentiles, lord it over them; and their great men exercise dominion over them.

and hearing that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, he began to cry out, and say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!

And many chid him, that he should be silent: but he cried out so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me!

And Jesus addressing him, said, What dost thou wish that I should do for thee? And the blind man said to him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight!
