Now when the birth of Jesus took place in Beth-lehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

And when they had gone, an angel of the Lord came to Joseph in a dream, saying, Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into Egypt, and do not go from there till I give you word; for Herod will be searching for the young child to put him to death.

And was there till the death of Herod; so that the word of the Lord through the prophet might come true, Out of Egypt have I sent for my son.

In Ramah there was a sound of weeping and great sorrow, Rachel weeping for her children, and she would not be comforted for their loss.

But when it came to his ears that Archelaus was ruling over Judaea in the place of his father Herod, he was in fear of going there; and God having given him news of the danger in a dream, he went out of the way into the country parts of Galilee.

And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, in the boat with their father, stitching up their nets; and he said, Come.

And there went after him great numbers from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea and from the other side of Jordan.

Let there be no thought that I have come to put an end to the law or the prophets. I have not come for destruction, but to make complete.

If then you are making an offering at the altar and there it comes to your mind that your brother has something against you,

Truly I say to you, You will not come out from there till you have made payment of the very last farthing.

For where your wealth is, there will your heart be.

And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house, but it was not moved; because it was based on the rock.

But the sons of the kingdom will be put out into the dark, and there will be weeping and cries of pain.

And there came a scribe and said to him, Master, I will come after you wherever you go.

And there came up a great storm in the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was sleeping.

And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.

Now there was, some distance away, a great herd of pigs taking their food.

And when Jesus was going from there, he saw a man whose name was Matthew, seated at the place where taxes were taken; and he said to him, Come after me. And he got up and went after him.

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.

And he went from there into their Synagogue:

And there was a man with a dead hand. And they put a question to him, saying, Is it right to make a man well on the Sabbath day? so that they might have something against him.

And Jesus, having knowledge of this, went away from there, and a great number went after him; and he made them all well,

So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.

Then he says, I will go back into my house from which I came out; and when he comes, he sees that there is no one in it, but that it has been made fair and clean.

And will put them into the fire; there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

When it was full, they took it up on the sands; and seated there they put the good into vessels, but the bad they put away.

And will put them into the fire: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

And when Jesus had come to the end of these stories he went away from there.

And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.

Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.

But Jesus said to them, There is no need for them to go away; give them food yourselves.

Truly I say to you, There are some of those here who will not have a taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

For where two or three are come together in my name, there am I among them.

And a great number went after him; and he made them well there.

For there are men who, from birth, were without sex: and there are some who were made so by men: and there are others who have made themselves so for the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to take it, let him take it.

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.

The young man says to him, All these things have I done: what more is there?

And Jesus went into the Temple and sent out all who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those trading in doves.

On the same day there came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no coming back from the dead: and they put a question to him, saying,

Now there were among us seven brothers; and the first was married and at his death, having no seed, gave his wife to his brother;

For when they come back from the dead there are no husbands and wives, but they are as the angels in heaven.

But he, answering, said to them, See you not all these things? truly I say to you that here there will not be one stone resting on another, which will not be pulled down.

Because in those days there will be great sorrow, such as there has not been from the start of the world till now, or ever will be.

And if those days had not been made short there would have been no salvation for any, but because of the saints those days will be made short.

For there will come up false Christs, and false prophets, who will do great signs and wonders; so that if possible even the saints might be tricked.

Wherever the dead body is, there will the eagles come together.

And will have him cut in two, and will give him a part in the fate of the false ones: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

And when he had gone out into the doorway, another saw him and says to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.

Then with curses and oaths he said, I have no knowledge of the man. And straight away there came the cry of a cock.

And they were seated there watching him.

And the curtain of the Temple was parted in two from end to end; and there was an earth-shock; and the rocks were broken;

And a number of women were there, watching from a distance, who had come with Jesus from Galilee, waiting on his needs.

And in the evening, there came a man of wealth from Arimathaea, Joseph by name, who was a disciple of Jesus:

And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, seated by the place of the dead.

And there was a great earth-shock; for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, rolling back the stone, took his seat on it.

And go quickly and give his disciples the news that he has come back from the dead, and is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him, as I have said to you.

And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.

But there were certain of the scribes seated there, and reasoning in their hearts,

And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.

And he went again into the Synagogue; and there was a man there whose hand was dead.

If there is division in a kingdom, that kingdom will come to destruction;

And if there is division in a house, that house will come to destruction;

And if Satan is at war with himself, and there is division in him, he will not keep his place but will come to an end.

There is nothing covered which will not be seen openly, and nothing has been made secret which will not come to light.

And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.
