and whoever doth not receive his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.

for made gross was the heart of this people, and with the ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they did close, lest they might see with the eyes, and with the ears might hear, and with the heart understand, and turn back, and I might heal them.

And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,

Then said Jesus to his disciples, 'If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me,

be going, then, on to the cross-ways, and as many as ye may find, call ye to the marriage-feasts.

And coming forth, they found a man, a Cyrenian, by name Simon: him they impressed that he might bear his cross;

and saying, 'Thou that art throwing down the sanctuary, and in three days building it, save thyself; if Son thou art of God, come down from the cross.'

'Others he saved; himself he is not able to save! If he be King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe him;

And he commanded them to make all recline in companies upon the green grass,

And having called near the multitude, with his disciples, he said to them, 'Whoever doth will to come after me -- let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me;

And Jesus having looked upon him, did love him, and said to him, 'One thing thou dost lack; go away, whatever thou hast -- sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me, having taken up the cross.'

And they impress a certain one passing by -- Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus -- that he may bear his cross,

save thyself, and come down from the cross!'

The Christ! the king of Israel -- let him come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe;' and those crucified with him were reproaching him.

and the child grew and was strengthened in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

and -- if ye love those loving you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful love those loving them;

and if ye do good to those doing good to you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful do the same;

and if ye lend to those of whom ye hope to receive back, what grace have ye? for also the sinful lend to sinners -- that they may receive again as much.

And he said unto all, 'If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me;

and whoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, is not able to be my disciple.

And as they led him away, having taken hold on Simon, a certain Cyrenian, coming from the field, they put on him the cross, to bear it behind Jesus.

And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a father, full of grace and truth.

and out of his fulness did we all receive, and grace over-against grace;

for the law through Moses was given, the grace and the truth through Jesus Christ did come;

And Jesus said, 'Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,

and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;

And Pilate also wrote a title, and put it on the cross, and it was written, 'Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;'

And there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;

The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, since it was the preparation, (for that sabbath day was a great one,) asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they taken away.

And with great power were the apostles giving the testimony to the rising again of the Lord Jesus, great grace also was on them all,

who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord,

and the synagogue having been dismissed, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes did follow Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, were persuading them to remain in the grace of God.

long time, indeed, therefore, did they abide speaking boldly in the Lord, who is testifying to the word of His grace, and granting signs and wonders to come to pass through their hands.

and thence did sail to Antioch, whence they had been given by the grace of God for the work that they fulfilled;

but, through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we believe to be saved, even as also they.'

and Paul having chosen Silas, went forth, having been given up to the grace of God by the brethren;

and he being minded to go through into Achaia, the brethren wrote to the disciples, having exhorted them to receive him, who having come, did help them much who have believed through the grace,

and many of those who had practised the curious arts, having brought the books together, were burning them before all; and they reckoned together the prices of them, and found it five myriads of silverlings;

but I make account of none of these, neither do I count my life precious to myself, so that I finish my course with joy, and the ministration that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify fully the good news of the grace of God.

and now, I commend you, brethren, to God, and to the word of His grace, that is able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among all those sanctified.

for made gross was the heart of this people, and with the ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they did close, lest they may see with the eyes, and with the heart may understand, and be turned back, and I may heal them.

through whom we did receive grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, in behalf of his name;

to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints; Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ!

being declared righteous freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

and to him who is working, the reward is not reckoned of grace, but of debt;

Because of this it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, for the promise being sure to all the seed, not to that which is of the law only, but also to that which is of the faith of Abraham,

through whom also we have the access by the faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.

But, not as the offence so also is the free gift; for if by the offence of the one the many did die, much more did the grace of God, and the free gift in grace of the one man Jesus Christ, abound to the many;

for if by the offence of the one the death did reign through the one, much more those, who the abundance of the grace and of the free gift of the righteousness are receiving, in life shall reign through the one -- Jesus Christ.

And law came in, that the offence might abound, and where the sin did abound, the grace did overabound,

that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?

for sin over you shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under grace.

What then? shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? let it not be!

So then also in the present time a remnant according to the choice of grace there hath been;

and if by grace, no more of works, otherwise the grace becometh no more grace; and if of works, it is no more grace, otherwise the work is no more work.

For I say, through the grace that was given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think above what it behoveth to think; but to think so as to think wisely, as to each God did deal a measure of faith,

And having gifts, different according to the grace that was given to us; whether prophecy -- 'According to the proportion of faith!'

and the more boldly I did write to you, brethren, in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me by God,

and the God of the peace shall bruise the Adversary under your feet quickly; the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen!

the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

I give thanks to my God always concerning you for the grace of God that was given to you in Christ Jesus,

For Christ did not send me to baptize, but -- to proclaim good news; not in wisdom of discourse, that the cross of the Christ may not be made of none effect;

for the word of the cross to those indeed perishing is foolishness, and to us -- those being saved -- it is the power of God,

According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, a foundation I have laid, and another doth build on it,

and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that is towards me came not in vain, but more abundantly than they all did I labour, yet not I, but the grace of God that is with me;

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is with you;

Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!

For our glorying is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, we did conduct ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you;

for the all things are because of you, that the grace having been multiplied, because of the thanksgiving of the more, may abound to the glory of God;

And working together also we call upon you that ye receive not in vain the grace of God --

And we make known to you, brethren, the grace of God, that hath been given in the assemblies of Macedonia,

but even as in every thing ye do abound, in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all diligence, and in your love to us, that also in this grace ye may abound;

for ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that because of you he became poor -- being rich, that ye by that poverty may become rich.

and God is able all grace to cause to abound to you, that in every thing always all sufficiency having, ye may abound to every good work,

and by their supplication in your behalf, longing after you because of the exceeding grace of God upon you;

and He said to me, 'Sufficient for thee is My grace, for My power in infirmity is perfected;' most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of the Christ may rest on me:

the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, is with you all! Amen.

Grace to you, and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,

I wonder that ye are so quickly removed from Him who did call you in the grace of Christ to another good news;

and when God was well pleased -- having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called me through His grace --

and having known the grace that was given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who were esteemed to be pillars, a right hand of fellowship they did give to me, and to Barnabas, that we to the nations, and they to the circumcision may go,

I do not make void the grace of God, for if righteousness be through law -- then Christ died in vain.

ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away;

And I, brethren, if uncircumcision I yet preach, why yet am I persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away;

as many as are willing to make a good appearance in the flesh, these constrain you to be circumcised -- only that for the cross of the Christ they may not be persecuted,

And for me, let it not be -- to glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which to me the world hath been crucified, and I to the world;

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with your spirit, brethren! Amen.

Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!

to the praise of the glory of His grace, in which He did make us accepted in the beloved,

in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the remission of the trespasses, according to the riches of His grace,

even being dead in the trespasses, did make us to live together with the Christ, (by grace ye are having been saved,)

that He might show, in the ages that are coming, the exceeding riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus,

for by grace ye are having been saved, through faith, and this not of you -- of God the gift,

and might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity in it,

if, indeed, ye did hear of the dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me in regard to you,

of which I became a ministrant, according to the gift of the grace of God that was given to me, according to the working of His power;

to me -- the less than the least of all the saints -- was given this grace, among the nations to proclaim good news -- the untraceable riches of the Christ,

and to each one of you was given the grace, according to the measure of the gift of Christ,
