it seemed right to me also, having obtained accurate knowledge of all things from above, to write to thee in regular order, most excellent Theophilus,

And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

And all the multitude of people was praying without, at the time of the burning the incense.

And the angel coming in to her said, All hail! O thou highly favoured one! the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father;

for he hath looked upon the lowly state of his maid-servant: for, lo! henceforth shall all generations pronounce me blessed.

And desiring a writing tablet, he wrote, saying, John is his name. And they were all surprised.

And great awe fell on all those who dwelt around them: and in all the mountainous country of Judea, all these circumstances were the subject of conversation.

And all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, Well! what a child will this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.

even preservation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;

in righteousness and holiness before him, all the days of our life.

NOW it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that the whole land should be registered.

And all went to be registered, every one to his own city.

And it came to pass, while they were there, that her time was up, that she should be delivered.

And the angel said unto them, Be not affrighted: for, behold, I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be for all the people.

And all who heard it, marvelled at the things told them by the shepherds.

But Mary carefully preserved all these declarations, laying them together in her heart, in order to apprehend their meaning.

And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things which they had heard and seen, exactly as had been told them.

which thou hast prepared before the face of all people.

and at the very same moment coming up, she also in turn confessed the Lord, and spake of him to all who were expecting redemption in Jerusalem.

And when they had finished all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, into their own city Nazareth.

And all who heard him, were in a transport of admiration, at his understanding and answers.

And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was in subjection to them: though his mother preserved all these sayings in her heart.

and he came into all the country on the confines of Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

and all flesh shall see the salvation of God."

John addressed himself to them all, saying, I indeed baptise you with water; but one mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie: he shall baptise you with the Holy Ghost and with fire;

whose winnowing fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor, and collect the wheat into his granary; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

Now Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him, on account of Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the other wicked actions which he had done,

added this also to all the rest, and shut up John in prison.

Now it came to pass, at the time when John was baptising all the people, that Jesus also was baptised, and as he prayed, the heaven was opened,

and the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily form, like a dove, upon him, and a voice came from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased.

And the devil taking him up into an exceeding high mountain, displayed before him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time:

and the devil said unto him, I will give thee all this authority, and the glory of these; for to me it is delivered, and to whomsoever I will, I give it.

If therefore thou wilt worship before me, all shall be thine.

And when the devil had closed all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.

And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and a report went out into all the region round about concerning him.

And rolling up the volume, he gave it to the attendant officer, and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were attentively fixed on him.

And all concurred in their testimony to him, and marvelled at the gracious words which proceeded from his mouth. And they said, Is not this the son of Joseph?

And he said unto them, Ye will probably say to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself! the works which we have heard to have been performed by thee at Capernaum, do the like here in thy own country.

Now I tell you of a certainty, that there were many widows in the days of Elias, in Israel, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a grievous famine was upon all the land.

And they were all filled with rage in the synagogue, when they heard these observations:

And amazement seized on all present, and they spake one to another, saying, What a word is this? for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.

And the fame of him went forth into all the adjacent region.

So when the sun was set, all who had any indisposed with various diseases, brought them to him; and laying his hands severally on each of them, he cured them.

And Simon answering, said unto him, Sir, we have been toiling all night, and have taken nothing: but at thy command I will shoot the net.

For amazement had seized on him, and on all who were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had taken:

And when they had brought their vessels on shore, they left all, and followed him.

And he stretching out his hand touched him, saying, I will: be thou cleansed. And instantly the leprosy departed from him.

And an extacy of admiration seized upon them all, and they glorified God; and they were filled with awe, saying, We have seen wondrously strange things to-day.

And leaving all behind, he rose, and followed him.

And Jesus answering said unto them, They who are well, have no need of a physician: but they who have illness.

But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, then shall they fast in those days.

And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; for if he doth, the new wine will burst the bottles, and it will itself be spilled, and the bottles be destroyed.

Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you a question; Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath-day, or to do evil? to preserve life or to destroy it?

And looking round upon them all, he said to the man, Stretch out thine hand; and he did so: and his hand was restored sound as the other.

Now it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray and continued all night in an oratory of God.

And coming down with them, he stood on a level spot: and the crowd of his disciples, and a vast multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;

And all the multitude strove to touch him, for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.

Wo unto you, when men shall speak well of you! for just so did their fathers of the false prophets.

And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? will they not both fall into the pit?

Every one who cometh to me, and heareth my words, and puts them in practice, I will shew you to whom he is like:

NOW after he had finished all these sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

Therefore neither did I think myself worthy to come unto thee, but speak in a word, and my servant will be cured.

And fear fell on all, and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us, and that God hath looked down with mercy on his people.

And this account respecting him went abroad through all Judea, and all the region adjacent.

And his disciples informed John of all these things.

And all the people when they heard it, and the publicans, glorified God, being baptised with the baptism of John.

But having nothing to pay, he forgave them both. Tell me, which of these, then, will love him most?

My head with oil thou hast not anointed; but she hath anointed my feet with odoriferous balm.

And while they were on the passage, he went to sleep: and a hurricane of wind rushed down on the lake; and they were filled with water, and imminent danger.

And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they feared and were astonished, saying one to another, Well! what a man is this! that he commands even the winds and the sea, and they obey him.

And as he landed, there met him a certain man from the city, who had devils for a long while, and kept no clothes on him, and never abode in a house, but in the tombs.

And the whole multitude of the country around the Gadarenes, entreated him to depart from them; for they were seized with great terror: and he embarked on the vessel, and returned.

Return to thy house, and declare what things God hath done for thee. And he went away, and published through the whole city what things Jesus had done for him.

And it came to pass, when Jesus returned, the people welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

And a woman, who had a flux of blood, for twelve years, who had spent all her substance on physicians, and could not get a cure from any;

And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied, Peter, and those who were with him, said, Master, the multitudes throng and press thee, and sayest thou, Who hath touched me?

Then the woman seeing she was not hid, came trembling, and falling down before him, declared to him before all the people, for what cause she had touched him; and how she was cured instantaneously.

Then he said unto her, Be of good cheer, daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.

And while he was yet speaking, a person came to the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead, give the master no further trouble.

Now all were weeping and lamenting her: and he said, Weep not, she is not dead, but asleep.

And he put them all without, and taking her by the hand, cried, saying, Maid, arise!

THEN calling his twelve disciples, he gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

Then Herod the tetrarch heard of all things that were done by him; and he was in much distraction of mind, because it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead:

Then he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves, and two fishes; unless we go somewhere and buy provisions for all this multitude:

And they did so: and they made them all sit down.

And they did all eat, and were filled; and there were taken up of the fragments which were more than enough for them, twelve baskets.

And he said unto them, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

For what advantage hath a man in gaining all the would, if he destroy himself, or be punished with the loss of life?

And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said unto Jesus, it is well that we are here, and we will make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias; not knowing what he said.

And while he was yet approaching the devil threw him down, and violently convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and cured the child; and restored him to his father.

And they were all struck with amazement at the mighty power of God. And while they were all wondering at the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,

and said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name, receiveth me; and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth Him that sent me: for he who is the least among you all, he shall be great.

And it came to pass, as they were walking on the road, a certain person said to him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

Then said another, I will follow thee, Lord, but give me leave first to bid adieu to those at my house.

Behold, I give you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shalt in any wise hurt you.

All things are given up to me by my Father: and no man knoweth who is the Son, but the Father; and who is the Father, but the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son is pleased to reveal him.

And he answering said, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might, and with all thy understanding, and thy neighbour as thyself."

and coming up to him, bound up his wounds, after pouring on them oil and wine; then setting him on his own beast, he led him to an inn, and took particular care of him.

And on the morrow, as he was departing, he took out of his purse two denarii, and gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, Take great care of him; and whatever farther expence may be incurred, when I return, I will repay thee.
