They say to him, Why then did Moses give orders that a husband might give her a statement in writing and be free from her?

Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same.

Even as the Son of man did not come to have servants, but to be a servant, and to give his life for the salvation of men.

And the disciples went and did as Jesus had given them orders,

But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the works of power which he did, and the children crying out in the Temple, Glory to the son of David, they were angry and said to him,

And when the disciples saw it they were surprised, saying, How did the fig-tree become dry in so short a time?

The baptism of John, where did it come from? from heaven or from men? And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not have faith in him?

Which of the two did his father's pleasure? They say, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that tax-farmers and loose women are going into the kingdom of God before you.

For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you had no faith in him, but the tax-farmers and the loose women had faith in him: and you, when you saw it, did not even have regret for your sins, so as to have faith in him.

Then will the upright make answer to him, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food, and give it to you? or in need of drink, and give it to you?

And when did we see you wandering, and take you in? or without clothing, and give it to you?

And when did we see you ill, or in prison, and come to you?

And the King will make answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Because you did it to the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.

Then will they make answer, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food or drink, or wandering, or without clothing, or ill, or in prison, and did not take care of you?

Be glad in that day, and be lifted up for joy, for your reward in heaven will be great: for their fathers did these same things to the prophets.

Unhappy are you when all men give you their approval: for so their fathers did to the false prophets.

And when the men who were sent by John had gone away, he said to the people, about John, What did you go out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?

But what did you go out to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

They are like children who are seated in the market-place, crying out to one another, and saying, We made music for you, but you did not take part in the dance; we gave cries of sorrow, but you were not sad.

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 the servant who had knowledge of his lord's desires and was not ready for him and did not do as he was ordered, will be given a great number of blows;

But he who, without knowledge, did things for which punishment is given, will get only a small number of blows. The man to whom much is given, will have to give much; if much is given into his care, of him more will be requested.

Does he give praise to the servant because he did what was ordered?

But they did not take in the sense of any of these words, and what he said was not clear to them, and their minds were not able to see it.

Why then did you not put my money in a bank, so that when I came I would get it back with interest?

But Jesus did not have faith in them, because he had knowledge of them all.

God did not send his Son into the world to be judge of the world; he sent him so that the world might have salvation through him.

Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?

So the disciples said one to another, Did anyone give him food?

He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together.
