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;

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.

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.

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.

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 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:

The lamp of the body is the eye: when therefore thine eye is clear, thy whole body will be luminous, but if it be vitiated, thy whole body will be darkened.

If then thy whole body be illuminated, not having any dark part, it will be wholly luminous, as a lamp by its brightness diffuseth light.

But give what is within them for alms; and, lo! all will be pure unto you.

But I tell you, Every one who shall confess me before men, him will the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Blessed are those servants, whom the Master, when he cometh, shall find watchful: verily I say unto you, that he will gird up himself, and make them sit down at table, and come and wait upon them.

And the Lord said, Who indeed is a faithful steward, and prudent, whom the lord will place over his household, to give them their proportion of provision at the proper season?

Verily I say unto you, that he will place him over all his property.

But if that servant say in his heart, My master will be a long while ere he comes; and shall begin to beat the men and maid-servants, and to eat and to drink, and to get drunk;

the master of that servant will come in a day when he doth not expect him, and at an hour which he knoweth not, and shall cut him asunder, and give him his portion with the unfaithful.

And that servant, who knew his master's will, and made no preparation for him, nor did according to his pleasure, shall be beaten with many stripes.

But he that knew it not, yet did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For of every one to whom much is given, much shall be required from him: and to whom men commit much, they will of him demand abundantly more.

What man is there of you, possessing an hundred sheep, though he lose but one of them, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

I tell you, that just so will there be joy in heaven over one repentant sinner, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons, who hold not their need of repentance.

I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,

I know what I will do, that, when I am removed from the stewardship, they may entertain me at their houses.

If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will entrust you with the true?

and if ye have not been faithful in that which belongs to another, who will give up to you that which is your own?

No domestic can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will cleave to the one, and neglect the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

But he said, Ah no, father Abraham! but if one came to them from the dead, they will repent.

Then taking aside the twelve, he said to them, Lo, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be fulfilled.

But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not have this man to rule over us.

And he said to him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow;

saying, Go into the opposite village; in which, as ye are at the entrance, ye will find a foal tied, on which no man hath ever yet sat: loose, and bring him.

For the days will come upon thee, when thy enemies shall cast up a trench around thee, and encircle thee about, and straiten thee on every side,

and will dash thee on the ground, and thy children within thee; and will not leave in thee one stone upon another: because thou knewest not the season of thy visitation.

Then he said, Take heed that ye be not deluded: for many will come in my name, saying, I am he; and the period approaches: go not therefore after them.

But before all these things, they will lay hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and to prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.

for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall be utterly unable to contradict or resist.

And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare it?

And he said unto them, Lo! as you are at the entrance of the city, there will a man meet you, carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whither he is going.

And he will shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

and if I shall ask you any question, ye will neither answer me, nor let me go free.
