And on the eighth day they came to see to the circumcision of the child, and they would have given him the name of Zacharias, his father's name;

And fear came on all those who were living round about them: and there was much talk about all these things in all the hill-country of Judaea.

And the child became tall, and strong in spirit; and he was living in the waste land till the day when he came before the eyes of Israel.

Now it came about in those days that an order went out from Caesar Augustus that there was to be a numbering of all the world.

And when, after eight days, the time came for his circumcision, he was named Jesus, the name which the angel had given to him before his birth.

And full of the Spirit he came into the Temple; and when the father and mother came in with the child Jesus, to do with him what was ordered by the law,

And when the days of the feast came to an end and they were going back, the boy Jesus was still in Jerusalem, but they had no knowledge of it:

And after three days they came across him in the Temple, seated among the wise men, giving ear to their words and putting questions to them.

And all to whose ears it came were full of wonder at his knowledge and the answers which he gave.

The Holy Spirit came down in the form of a dove, and a voice came from heaven, saying, You are my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, came back from the Jordan, and was guided by the Spirit in the waste land

For forty days, being tested by the Evil One. And he had no food in those days; and when they came to an end, he was in need of food.

And Jesus came back to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news of him went through all the country round about.

And he came to Nazareth, where he had been as a child, and he went, as his way was, into the Synagogue on the Sabbath, and got up to give a reading.

And the book of the prophet Isaiah was given to him and, opening the book, he came on the place where it is said,

And they were all giving witness, with wonder, to the words of grace which came from his mouth: and they said, Is not this the son of Joseph?

But he came through them and went on his way.

And he came down to Capernaum, a town of Galilee; and he was giving them teaching on the Sabbath.

And Jesus said to him, Be quiet, and come out of him. And when the evil spirit had put him down on the earth in the middle of them, he came out of him, having done him no damage.

And wonder came on them all and they said to one another, What are these words? for with authority and power he gives orders to the evil spirits and they come out.

And evil spirits came out of a number of them, crying out and saying, You are the Son of God. But he gave them sharp orders not to say a word, because they had knowledge that he was the Christ.

And when it was day, he came out and went to a waste place; and great numbers of people came looking for him, and they came to him and would have kept him from going away.

Now it came about that while the people came pushing to be near him, and to have knowledge of the word of God, he was by a wide stretch of water named Gennesaret;

And they made signs to their friends in the other boat to come to their help. And they came, and the two boats were so full that they were going down.

And it came about that while he was in one of the towns, there was a leper there: and when he saw Jesus he went down on his face in prayer to him, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.

But news of him went out all the more, in every direction, and great numbers of people came together to give hearing to his words and to be made well from their diseases.

And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.

Now it came about that on the Sabbath he was going through the fields of grain, and his disciples took the heads of the grain for food, crushing them in their hands.

And it came about, on another Sabbath, that he went into the Synagogue and was teaching there. And a man was there whose right hand was dead.

But he had knowledge of their thoughts; and he said to the man whose hand was dead, Get up and come into the middle. And he got up and came forward.

And it came about in those days that he went out to the mountain for prayer; and he was all night in prayer to God.

And the day came and, turning to his disciples, he made a selection from among them of twelve, to whom he gave the name of Apostles;

And he came down with them to a level place, and a great band of his disciples, and a very great number of people from all Judaea and Jerusalem and from the parts of Tyre and Sidon by the sea, came to give hearing to him, and to be made well from their diseases;

And all the people were desiring to be touched by him, for power came from him and made them all well.

He is like a man building a house, who went deep and put the base of it on a rock; and when the water came up and the river was driving against that house, it was not moved, because the building was good.

But he who gives hearing, without doing, is like a man building a house on the earth without a base for it; and when the force of the river came against it, straight away it came down; and the destruction of that house was great.

And when news of Jesus came to his ears, he sent to him rulers of the Jews, requesting that he would come and make his servant well.

And they, when they came to Jesus, made their request warmly, saying,

And when those who were sent came back to the house they saw that the servant was well.

And it came about, after a little time, that he went to a town named Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great number of people.

Now when he came near the door of the town, a dead man was being taken out, the only son of his mother, who was a widow: and a great number of people from the town were with her.

And he came near, and put his hand on the stretcher where the dead man was: and those who were moving it came to a stop. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Get up.

And the dead man got up, and words came from his lips. And he gave him to his mother.

And fear came on all, and they gave praise to God, saying, A great prophet is among us: and, God has given thought to his people.

And when the men came to him they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

For John the Baptist came, taking no food or drink, and you say, He has an evil spirit.

The Son of man came feasting, and you say, Here is a lover of food and wine, a friend of tax-farmers and sinners.

And turning to the woman he said to Simon, You see this woman? I came into your house; you did not give me water for my feet: but she has been washing my feet with the drops from her eyes, and drying them with her hair.

You did not give me a kiss: but she, from the time when I came in, has gone on kissing my feet.

And it came about, after a short time, that he went through town and country giving the good news of the kingdom of God, and with him were the twelve,

And when a great number of people came together, and men from every town went out to him, he gave them teaching in the form of a story:

And some went on the rock, and when it came up it became dry and dead because it had no water.

And some went among thorns, and the thorns came up with it and it had no room for growth.

And some falling on good earth, came up and gave fruit a hundred times as much. And with these words he said in a loud voice, He who has ears, let him give ear.

And his mother and his brothers came to him, and they were not able to get near him because of the great number of people.

Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.

But while they were sailing he went to sleep: and a storm of wind came down on the sea, and the boat became full of water and they were in danger.

Then they came to him and, awaking him out of his sleep, said, Master, Master, destruction is near. And he, when he was awake, gave orders to the wind and the rolling waves, and the storm came to an end, and all was calm.

And they came to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.

And when he had come to the land, there came to him a certain man from the town who had evil spirits; and for a long time he had had no clothing on, and was not living in a house but in the place of the dead.

And the evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs: and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the water and came to destruction.

And they went out to see what had taken place, and they came to Jesus and saw the man out of whom the evil spirits had gone, seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, at the feet of Jesus; and fear came on them.

Then there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler in the Synagogue: and he went down at the feet of Jesus, desiring him to come to his house;

Came after him and put her hand on the edge of his robe, and straight away the flowing of her blood was stopped.

And when the woman saw that she was not able to keep it secret, she came, shaking with fear, and falling down before him she made clear before all the people the reason for her touching him, and how she was made well straight away.

While he was still talking, someone came from the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, saying, Your daughter is dead; do not go on troubling the Master.

And when he came to the house he did not let any man go in with him, but only Peter and John and James, and the father of the girl and her mother.

And her spirit came back to her and she got up straight away: and he gave orders that food was to be given to her.

And the twelve, when they came back, gave him an account of what they had done. And he took them with him and went away from the people to a town named Beth-saida.

And the day went on; and the twelve came to him and said, Send these people away so that they may go into the towns and the country round about and get resting-places and food for themselves, for we are in a waste place.

And it came about that when he was in prayer, by himself, and the disciples were with him, he put a question to them, saying, Who do the people say I am?

And while he said these things, the shade of a cloud came over them, and they were full of fear when they went into the cloud.

And on the day after, when they came down from the mountain, a great band of people came to him.

And it came about that when the days were near for him to be taken up, his face was turned to go to Jerusalem,

And he sent men before: and they came to a small town of Samaria to make ready for him.

And the seventy came back with joy, saying, Lord, even the evil spirits are under our power in your name.

And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.

But a certain man of Samaria, journeying that way, came where he was, and when he saw him, he was moved with pity for him,

And came to him and put clean linen round his wounds, with oil and wine; and he put him on his beast and took him to a house and took care of him.

Which of these three men, in your opinion, was neighbour to the man who came into the hands of thieves?

Now, while they were on their way, he came to a certain town; and a woman named Martha took him into her house.

But Martha had her hands full of the work of the house, and she came to him and said, Lord, is it nothing to you that my sister has let me do all the work? Say to her that she is to give me some help.

And it came about that he was in prayer in a certain place, and when he came to an end, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, will you give us teaching about prayer, as John did to his disciples?

And he was sending an evil spirit out of a man who was without the power of talking. And it came about that when the spirit had gone the man had the power of talking; and the people were full of wonder.
