and Jesse the father of David the king. And David was the father of Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah;

And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.

But when he thought about these things, suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.

"A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; and she would not be comforted, because they are no more."

Now John himself wore clothing made of camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.

but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.

"It was also said, 'Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,'

but I tell you that everyone who puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.

Neither shall you swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.

And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way. Let it be done for you as you have believed." And his servant was healed in that hour.

So he touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up and served him.

And suddenly they shouted, saying, "What do we have to do with you, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

While he told these things to them, suddenly a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."

But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, "Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour.

But when the crowd was put out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.

And whoever does not receive you, nor hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake off the dust from your feet.

But when they deliver you up, do not be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.

What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.

For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

And Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:

the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' But wisdom is justified by her actions."

But I tell you that something greater than the temple is here.

He will not strive, nor shout; neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.

The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the proclaiming of Jonah; and look, something greater than Jonah is here.

The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and look, someone greater than Solomon is here.

He who has ears, let him hear."

Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing, they do not hear, neither do they understand.

And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, 'By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive:

for this people's heart has grown callous, and their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and should turn again; and I would heal them.'

"But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.

For truly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them.

"Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.

Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

For John said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."

Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.

And she, being prompted by her mother, said, "Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist."

And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the young lady: and she brought it to her mother.

Now when evening had come, the disciples came to him, saying, "This place is desolate, and the hour is already late. Send the crowds away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food."

And they told him, "We only have here five loaves and two fish."

So he said, "Bring them here to me."

He summoned the crowd, and said to them, "Hear, and understand.

But he did not answer her a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, "Send her away; for she cries after us."

Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith. Be it done to you even as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that hour.

Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom."

Peter answered, and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let us make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

Jesus answered, "Faithless and perverse generation. How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me."

Jesus rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.

So he said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you."

In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?"

If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. If he refuses to hear the church also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector.

They asked him, "Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce, and divorce her?"

"For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who was the master of a household, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

He went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.

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

About the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing. He said to them, 'Why do you stand here all day idle?'

"When those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came, they each received a denarius.

saying, 'These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'

Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him.

He said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand, and one on your left hand, in your Kingdom."

saying to them, "Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them, and bring them to me.

and said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" Jesus said to them, "Yes. Did you never read, 'Out of the mouth of babes and nursing babies you have perfected praise?'"

"Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household, who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went on a journey.

But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and seize his inheritance.'

and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?' He was speechless.

In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her."

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I would have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not.

But he answered them, "Do you not see all of these things? Truly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down."

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for this must happen, but the end is not yet.

"Then if any man tells you, 'Look, here is the Messiah,' or, 'There,' do not believe it.

But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but my Father only.

Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.

the lord of that servant will come in a day when he does not expect it, and in an hour when he does not know it,

Watch therefore, for you do not know the day nor the hour.

Truly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her."

Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go there and pray."

Then he said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch with me."

He came to the disciples, and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What, could you not watch with me for one hour?

Then he came to the disciples, and said to them, "Sleep on now, and take your rest. Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

Jesus said to him, "Friend, why are you here?" Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.

In that hour Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you did not arrest me.

Then Pilate said to him, "Do you not hear how many things they testify against you?"

Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

About the ninth hour Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" That is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where he was lying.

And John was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.

Now Simon's wife's mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.

And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.

And he said, "Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."

that 'seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest perhaps they should return and be forgiven.'"

And those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times."

If any man has ears to hear, let him hear."

And he said to them, "Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and more will be given to you.

And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.

and pleaded with him repeatedly, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live."

And immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

He looked around to see her who had done this thing.

But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
