Saying, Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: because they who were attempting to take the young child's life are dead.

You have knowledge that it was said, Have love for your neighbour, and hate for him who is against you:

But I say to you, Have love for those who are against you, and make prayer for those who are cruel to you;

For if you have love for those who have love for you, what credit is it to you? do not the tax-farmers the same?

No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.

So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?

For narrow is the door and hard the road to life, and only a small number make discovery of it.

While he was saying these things to them, there came a ruler and gave him worship, saying, My daughter is even now dead; but come and put your hand on her, and she will come back to life.

Make well those who are ill, give life to the dead, make lepers clean, send evil spirits out of men; freely it has been given to you, freely give.

He who has more love for his father or mother than for me is not good enough for me; he who has more love for son or daughter than for me is not good enough for me.

He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him.

The blind see; those who were not able to, are walking; lepers are made clean; those who were without hearing, now have their ears open; the dead come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.

And whoever says a word against the Son of man, will have forgiveness; but whoever says a word against the Holy Spirit, will not have forgiveness in this life or in that which is to come.

And that which was dropped among the thorns, this is he who has the word; and the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, put a stop to the growth of the word and it gives no fruit.

For out of the heart come evil thoughts, the taking of life, broken faith between the married, unclean desires of the flesh, taking of property, false witness, bitter words:

Because whoever has a desire to keep his life safe will have it taken from him; but whoever gives up his life because of me, will have it given back to him.

For what profit has a man, if he gets all the world with the loss of his life? or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

And if your hand or your foot is a cause of trouble, let it be cut off and put it away from you: it is better for you to go into life with the loss of a hand or a foot than, having two hands or two feet, to go into the eternal fire.

And if your eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out, and put it away from you: it is better for you to go into life with one eye than, having two eyes, to go into the hell of fire.

And one came to him and said, Master, what good thing have I to do, so that I may have eternal life?

And he said to him, Why are you questioning me about what is good? One there is who is good: but if you have a desire to go into life, keep the rules of the law.

He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Do not put anyone to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness,

Give honour to your father and your mother: and, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

And everyone who has given up houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or child, or land, for my name, will be given a hundred times as much, and have eternal life.

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.

But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings:

And he said to him, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

And a second like it is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

And because wrongdoing will be increased, the love of most people will become cold.

And these will go away into eternal punishment; but the upright into eternal life.

And they made a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and put a rod in his right hand, and they went down on their knees before him, and made sport of him, saying, Long life to the King of the Jews.

And the resting-places of the dead came open; and the bodies of a number of sleeping saints came to life;

He is not here, for he has come to life again, even as he said. Come, see the Lord's resting-place.

And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.

And he said to them, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to put to death? But they said nothing.

And the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, and the desire for other things coming in, put a stop to the growth of the word, and it gives no fruit.

The earth gives fruit by herself; first the leaf, then the head, then the full grain.

And made strong prayers to him, saying, My little daughter is near to death: it is my prayer that you will come and put your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and have life.

The taking of goods and of life, broken faith between husband and wife, the desire of wealth, wrongdoing, deceit, sins of the flesh, an evil eye, angry words, pride, foolish acts:

Whoever has a desire to keep his life, will have it taken from him; and whoever gives up his life because of me and the good news, will keep it.

What profit has a man if he gets all the world with the loss of his life?

And what would a man give in exchange for his life?

And if your hand is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off; it is better for you to go into life with one hand than to have two hands and go into hell, into the eternal fire.

And if your foot is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off: it is better for you to go into life with one foot than to have two feet and go into hell.

And while he was going out into the way, a man came running to him, and went down on his knees, saying, Good Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

You have knowledge of what is said in the law, Do not put any one to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Do not get money by deceit, Give honour to your father and mother.

Who will not get a hundred times as much now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and land--though with great troubles; and, in the world to come, eternal life.

For truly 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.

In the future life, when they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for the seven had her for a wife.

But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

And you are to have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.

The second is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself. There is no other law greater than these.

And to have love for him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to have the same love for his neighbour as for himself, is much more than all forms of offerings.

And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.

And, as if honouring him, they said, Long life to the King of the Jews!

And there was one, Anna, a woman prophet, the daughter of Phanuel, of the family of Asher (she was very old, and after seven years of married life

The son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Jannai, the son of Joseph,

The son of Jesus, the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi,

And after these things he went out, and saw Levi, a tax-farmer, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and said to him, Come after me.

And Levi made a great feast for him in his house: and a great number of tax-farmers and others were seated at table with them.

And Jesus said, I put the question to you, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to take it away?

But I say to you who give ear to me, Have love for those who are against you, do good to those who have hate for you,

If you have love for those who have love for you, what credit is it to you? for even sinners have love for those who have love for them.

And answering them he said, Go back and give news to John of what you have seen, and the things which have come to your ears; the blind now see, those who had no power in their legs are walking, lepers are made clean, those who had no hearing now have their ears open, dead men come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.

When they were unable to make payment, he made the two of them free of their debts. Which of them, now, will have the greater love for him?

And so I say to you, She will have forgiveness for her sins which are great in number, because of her great love: but he who has small need of forgiveness gives little love.

And those which went among thorns are those who have given hearing, and go on their way, but they are overcome by cares and wealth and the pleasures of life, and they give no fruit.

And by some, that Elijah had come; and by others, that one of the old prophets had come back to life.

Saying, The Son of man will undergo much and be put on one side by the rulers and the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and be put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.

For whoever has a desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, but whoever gives up his life because of me, will keep it.

And a certain teacher of the law got up and put him to the test, saying, Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

And he, answering, said, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and for your neighbour as for yourself.

And he said, You have given the right answer: do this and you will have life.

But a curse is on you, Pharisees! for you make men give a tenth of every sort of plant, and give no thought to right and the love of God; but it is right for you to do these things, and not let the others be undone.

And he said to them, Take care to keep yourselves free from the desire for property; for a man's life is not made up of the number of things which he has.

And he said to his disciples, For this reason I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about what food you will take, or for your body, how it may be clothed.

Is not life more than food, and the body than its clothing?

And turning round, he said to them, If any man comes to me, and has not hate for his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, and even for his life, he may not be my disciple.

And I say to you, Make friends for yourselves through the wealth of this life, so that when it comes to an end, you may be taken into the eternal resting-places.

If, then, you have not been true in your use of the wealth of this life, who will give into your care the true wealth?

No man may be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other; or he will keep to the one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.

And the Pharisees, who had a great love of money, hearing these things, were making sport of him.

If anyone makes an attempt to keep his life, it will be taken from him, but if anyone gives up his life, he will keep it.

And a certain ruler put a question to him, saying, Good Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

Who will not get much more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life.

And he will be given cruel blows and put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.

But his people had no love for him, and sent representatives after him, saying, We will not have this man for our ruler.

But even Moses made it clear that the dead come back to life, saying, in the story of the burning thorn-tree, The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

But give attention to yourselves, for fear that your hearts become over-full of the pleasures of food and wine, and the cares of this life, and that day may come on you suddenly, and take you as in a net:

Now this man was in prison because of an attack against the government in the town, in which there had been loss of life

He is not here, he has come back to life: have in mind what he said to you when he was still in Galilee, saying,

The Son of man will be given up into the hands of evil-doers, and be put to death on the cross, and on the third day he will come back to life.

And they said to them, The Lord has truly come back to life again, and Simon has seen him.

And he said to them, So it is in the Writings that the Christ would undergo death, and come back to life again on the third day;

What came into existence in him was life, and the life was the light of men.

For the law was given through Moses; grace and the true way of life are ours through Jesus Christ.

So that whoever has faith may have in him eternal life.

For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.

And this is the test by which men are judged: the light has come into the world and men have more love for the dark than for the light, because their acts are evil.

But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God.
