Simon's mother-in-law was in bed with fever, so they told him at once about her,

and discovered him; they told him, "Everybody is looking for you,"

Then glancing round him in anger and vexation at their obstinacy he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out and his hand was quite restored.

So he told his disciples to have a small boat ready; it was to prevent him being crushed by the crowd,

there was a crowd sitting round him, and he was told, "Here are your mother and brothers and sisters wanting you outside."

And he woke up, checked the wind, and told the sea, "Peace, be quiet." The wind fell and there was a great calm.

Instantly Jesus ignored the remark and told the president, "Have no fear, only believe."

But he strictly forbade them to let anyone know about it, and told them to give her something to eat.

Also, he told them, "Wherever you enter a house, stay there till you leave the place.

John had told Herod, "You have no right to your brother's wife."

He said, "How many loaves have you got? Go and see." When they found out they told him, "Five, and two fish."

and as they also had a few small fish, he blessed them too and told the disciples to serve them out as well.

"John the Baptist," they told him, "though some say Elijah, and others say you are one of the prophets."

and whenever it seizes him it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth. He is wasting away with it; so I told your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

A number of the people checked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have pity on me!"

Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." Then they called the blind man and told him, "Courage! Get up, he is calling you."

So they answered as Jesus had told them, and the men allowed them to go.

The disciples went away into the city and found it was as he had told them. So they prepared the passover,

"One of the twelve," he told them, "one who is dipping into the same dish as I am.

Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and he told his disciples, "Sit here till I pray."

At that moment the cock crowed for the second time. Then Peter remembered how Jesus had told him, "Before the cock crows twice you will disown me thrice;" and he burst into tears.

Go you and tell his disciples and Peter, 'He precedes you to Galilee; you shall see him there, as he told you.'"
