whose fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly purge His floor and will gather the wheat into His storehouse. But He will burn the chaff with unquenchable fire.

But Herod the tetrarch (being reproved by him on account of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done)

And answering, Simon said to Him, Master, we have toiled all the night and have taken nothing. Yet at Your word I will let down the net.

And all the multitude of the neighborhood of the Gadarenes were seized with a great fear, and asked Him to depart from them. And entering into the boat, He returned.

Return to your own house and declare what God has done to you. And he went his way and proclaimed throughout all the city what great things Jesus had done to him.

And it happened when Jesus had returned, the people received Him. For they were all waiting for Him.

And a woman who had a flow of blood twelve years (who had spent all her living on physicians, and could not be healed by any)

And Jesus said, Who touched Me? And all having denied, Peter and those with Him said, Master, the crowd presses and jostles You, and You say, Who touched Me?

And seeing that she was not hidden, the woman came trembling. And falling down before Him, she declared to Him before all the people why she had touched Him, and how she was instantly healed.

And returning, the apostles told Him all that they had done. And He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place of a city called Bethsaida.

But the day began to wear away, and coming up the Twelve said to Him, Send the crowd away so that they may go into the villages and farms all around, and lodge, and get food. For we are here in a deserted place.

But He said to them, You give them something to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people.

And they did so, and made them all recline.

And they ate and were all filled. And there was taken up twelve hand baskets full of fragments of that left over to them.

And He said to all, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me.

For whoever will save his life shall lose it, but whoever will lose his life for My sake, he shall save it.

For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world and loses himself, or is cast away?

And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But as all were marveling at all things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,

And He said to them, Whoever shall receive this child in My name receives Me. And whoever shall receive Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all, he shall be great.

And it happened as they were going in the way, one said to Him, Lord, I will follow You wherever You go.

And He said to another, Follow Me! But he said, Lord, first allow me to go and bury my father.
