Simon's mother-in-law was in bed, sick with a fever, and they immediately told him about her.

In the evening, after sunset, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed by demons,

And he cured many who were sick with various diseases, and drove out many demons, and he would not let the demons speak, because they knew that he was Christ.

and such a crowd gathered that after a while there was no room even around the door, and he was telling them his message.

Jesus heard it, and said to them, "It is not well people but the sick who have to have the doctor. I did not come to invite the pious but the irreligious."

And again the crowd gathered in such numbers that there was no chance for them even to have their meals.

With many such figures he told them the message, as far as they were able to receive it.

When the Sabbath came he began to teach in the synagogue. And the people were astonished when they heard him, and said, "Where did he get all this? How does he come to have such wisdom? How are such marvelous things done through him?

He could not do any wonder there, except that he put his hands on a few sick people and cured them.

and drove out many demons, and cured many sick people by anointing them with oil.

and they hurried all over the countryside and began to bring the sick to him on their mats, wherever they heard he was.

And whatever village or town or farm he went to, they would lay their sick in the market-place and beg him to let them touch just the tassel of his cloak, and all who touched it were cured.

and so you nullify what God has said by what you have handed down. You have many such practices."

When Jesus saw it, he was indignant, and said to them, "Let the children come to me; do not try to stop them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as they.

Should we pay it, or refuse to pay it?" But he saw through their pretense, and said to them, "Why do you put me to such a test? Bring me a denarius to look at."

for there will be such misery in those days as there has never been since the beginning of God's creation until now, and never will be again.

If the Lord had not cut those days short, nobody would have escaped, but for the sake of his own chosen people he has cut the days short.

and the stars will fall from the sky and the forces in the sky will shake.

Earth and sky will pass away, but my words will not.

But Jesus said, "I am! and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Almighty and coming in the clouds of the sky!"

they will take snakes in their hands, and if they drink poison it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well."
