The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this manner: When his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child by the Holy Spirit.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

And knew her not till she had brought forth her first-born son: and he called his name JESUS.

Now, after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.

And Jesus answering said to him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up immediately out of the water: and lo, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

Then was Jesus led by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the devil.

Jesus said to him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

Then saith Jesus to him, Be gone, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee.

From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness, and all manner of disease among the people.

And it came to pass when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine.

And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

And Jesus saith to him, See thou tell no man; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

And when Jesus had entered into Capernaum, there came to him a centurion, beseeching him,

And Jesus saith to him, I will come and heal him.

When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say to you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

And Jesus said to the centurion, Depart; and as thou hast believed, so be it done to thee. And his servant was healed in the same hour.

And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick with a fever.

Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart to the other side.

And Jesus saith to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

But Jesus said to him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?

And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their borders.

And behold, they brought to him a man sick with the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the sick of the palsy, Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven thee.

And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, Why think ye evil in your hearts?

And as Jesus was passing from thence, he saw a man named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at table in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

But when Jesus heard that, he said to them, They that are in health need not a physician, but they that are sick.

And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bride-chamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then they will fast.

And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

But Jesus turned himself about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.)

And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith to them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness, and every disease among the people.

These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and enter ye not into any city of the Samaritans.

And it came to pass when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.

Jesus answered and said to them, Go and show John again those things which ye hear and see:

And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken with the wind?

At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes.

At that time Jesus went on the sabbath through the corn, and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.

But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all.

And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself, is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself, shall not stand.

The same day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

All these things Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables; and without a parable he spoke not to them:

Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came to him, saying, Declare to us the parable of the tares of the field.

Jesus saith to them, Have ye understood all these things? They say to him, Yes, Lord.

And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.

And they were offended in him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country, and in his own house.

At that time Herod the Tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence in a boat, into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard of it, they followed him on foot out of the cities.

And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion towards them, and he healed their sick.

But Jesus said to them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a boat, and to go before him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.

But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

And he said, Come. And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said to him, O thou of little faith, Why didst thou doubt?

Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, who were of Jerusalem, saying,

And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?

Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the territories of Tyre and Sidon.

Then Jesus answered and said to her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it to thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh to the sea of Galilee; and ascended a mountain, and sat down there.

And great multitudes came to him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

Then Jesus called his disciples to him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

And Jesus saith to them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.

Then Jesus said to them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

Which when Jesus perceived, he said to them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?

When Jesus came into the borders of Cesarea Phillippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Who do men say that I the Son of man am?

And Jesus answered and said to him, Blessed art thou, Simon-Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.

Then he charged his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

From that time forth Jesus began to show to his disciples, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

Then said Jesus to his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

And after six days, Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them upon a high mountain apart.

Then answered Peter, and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

And as they were descending the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be raised again from the dead.

And Jesus answered and said to them, Elijah truly will first come, and restore all things:

Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.

And Jesus rebuked the demon, and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.

Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?

And Jesus said to them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say to you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard-seed, ye shall say to this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place, and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man will be betrayed into the hands of men:

He saith, Yes. And when he had come into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? from whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? from their own children, or from strangers?

Peter saith to him, From strangers. Jesus saith to him, Then are the children free.

At the same time came the disciples to Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

And Jesus called a little child to him, and set him in the midst of them,

Jesus saith to him, I say not to thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judea, beyond Jordan:

But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not to come to me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

He saith to him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
