And thou, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High. For thou will go ahead, before the face of Lord, to prepare his ways,

which thou prepared toward the face of all the peoples:

And it came to pass while he was in one of the cities, behold, a man full of leprosy. And having seen Jesus, having fallen on his face, he besought him, saying, Lord, if thou will, thou can make me clean.

This is he about whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who will prepare thy way before thee.

And as he was praying, the appearance of his face became different, and his clothing glistening white.

And it came to pass, while fulfilling the days for his ascension, that he also set his face to go to Jerusalem.

And he sent agents before his face, and they went. And having gone, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to make ready for him.

And they did not receive him, because his face was going to Jerusalem.

Now after these things the Lord also appointed seventy other men, and sent them by twos before his face into every city and place where he himself was going to come.

Ye hypocrites, ye know how to examine the face of the earth and the sky, but how can ye not examine this season?

And he fell upon his face beside his feet giving him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.

For it will come like a trap upon all those who sit upon the face of all the earth.

And having covered him, they struck his face, and demanded him, saying, Prophesy! Who is he who struck thee?

And since they became frightened and bowing down their face to the ground, they said to them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
