In those days came Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized in the Jordan by John;

and there was a voice from heaven, You are my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

AND entering again into Capernaum after some days, it was reported that he was in the house.

And many came together immediately, so that there was no room, not even in the places about the door; and he spoke to them the word.

and not being able to approach him on account of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was, and having made an opening let down the bed on which the paralytic was laid.

And Herodias was displeased with him, and wished to kill him, but was not able.

For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he preserved him, and hearing him, did many things, and heard him gladly.

And the king was extremely sorry, but on account of the oaths, and those reclining with him, he was not willing to refuse her.

And he said to them, Come to a solitary place by yourselves, and rest a little; for many were coming and going, and there was no convenient time to eat.

And when it was evening, the ship was in the midst of the lake, and he alone on the land.

And seeing them troubled to proceed, for the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them walking on the lake, and wished to pass by them.

And they were silent; for they had disputed with each other on the way as to who was the greatest.

And whoever shall offend one of the little ones having faith, it would be better for him if a millstone was put about his neck and he was cast into the sea.

AND he arose and went thence into the bounds of Judea, and beyond the Jordan; and again multitudes came together to him, and again he taught them as he was accustomed.

But Jesus seeing it, was displeased, and said to them, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.

And some were displeased, [and said] to themselves, Why was this waste of the ointment?

And when it was evening he came, with the twelve,

And they came to a place which was called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, Sit here, till I pray.

And going forward a little he fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it was possible, the hour might pass away from him.

And immediately, while he was yet speaking, Judas the Iscariot, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude, with swords and clubs, from the chief priests, and scribes, and elders.
