and says to Him, "If Thou art a Son of God, cast Thyself down; for it has been written, 'He shall give His angels charge concerning Thee; and on their hands they shall bear Thee up; lest at any time Thou shouldest dash Thy foot against a stone.'"

Thus, therefore, pray ye: 'Our Father, Who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name.

Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done, as in Heaven, so on earth.

Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by Thy name? and by Thy name cast out demons, and by Thy name do many mighty works,'"

Then came to Him the disciples of John, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Thy disciples fast not?"

While He is speaking these things to them, behold, a ruler, having come to Him, was worshiping Him, saying, "My daughter just now died; but, coming, lay Thy hand upon her, and she shall live."

This is he of whom it has been written, 'Behold, I send My messenger before Thy face, who shall prepare Thy way before Thee.'

But the Pharisees, seeing it, said to Him, "Behold, Thy disciples are doing that which it is not lawful to do on a sabbath."

[And one said to Him, "Behold, Thy mother and Thy brothers are standing without, seeking to speak to Thee."]

"Why do Thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they do not wash their hands, when they eat bread!"

And I brought him to Thy disciples, and they could not heal him."

And He said to her, "What do you wish?" She says to Him, "Command, that these my two sons may sit, one on Thy right hand, and one on Thy left, in Thy Kingdom."

The Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit on My right hand, till I put Thy foes beneath Thy feet.'

And, while He was sitting on the mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us when shall these things be, and what is the sign of Thy coming and of the end of the age."

Again, a second time, going away, He prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is not possible that this cup should pass away except I drink it, Thy will be done,"

As it has been written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I send My messenger before Thy face, who shall prepare Thy way;

And John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting; and they come and say to Him, "Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but Thy disciples fast not?"

And a multitude was sitting about Him; and they say to Him, "Behold, Thy mother and Thy brothers without are seeking for Thee."

and beseeches Him much, saying, "My little daughter is extremely ill; I pray that, coming, Thou wilt lay Thy hands upon her, that she may be healed and live."

And the Pharisees and the scribes ask Him, "Why do not Thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with defiled hands?"

and wheresoever it seizes upon him, it tears him, and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and pines away. And I spake to Thy disciples, that they should cast it out; and they were not able."

John said to Him, "Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in Thy name; and we forbade him, because he was not following us."

And they said to Him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one on Thy right hand, and one on Thy left, in Thy Kingdom."

David himself said in the Holy Spirit, 'The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on My right hand, until I put Thy enemies underneath Thy feet.'

And He said to them, "Ye will doubtless say to Me this parable, 'Physician, heal Thyself: whatsoever we heard of as done in Capernaum, do also here in Thy own country.'"

And Simon, answering, said, "Master, having toiled through the whole night, we took nothing; but at Thy word I will let down the nets."

This is he concerning whom it has been written, 'Behold, I send forth My messenger before Thy face, who will prepare Thy way before Thee.'

And it was reported to Him, "Thy mother and Thy brothers have been standing without, wishing to see Thee."

and I besought Thy disciples to cast it out, but they were not able."

And John, answering, said, "Master, we saw one casting out demons in Thy name; and we forbade him, because he follows not with us."

And the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Thy name!"

In that same hour He exulted in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I thank Thee, O Father Lord of Heaven and earth, because Thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, and didst reveal them to babes: yea, Father, because it was well-pleasing in Thy sight.

And He said to them, "When ye pray, say, 'Father, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come.

then ye will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in Thy presence, and Thou didst teach in our streets.'

And some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to Him, "Teacher, rebuke Thy disciples!"

until I make Thy enemies a footstool of Thy feet.'

And he said, "Jesus, remember me, when Thou comest in Thy Kingdom."

And, crying with a loud voice, Jesus said, "Father, into Thy hands I commit My spirit." And, having said this, He expired.

His disciples remembered that it had been written, "Zeal for Thy house will eat Me up,"

His brethren, therefore, said to Him, "Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that Thy disciples also may behold Thy works that Thou doest;

The Pharisees, therefore, said to Him, "Thou testifiest concerning Thyself; Thy testimony is not true."

They said, therefore, to Him, "Where is Thy Father?" Jesus answered, "Ye know neither Me, nor My Father. If ye knew Me, ye would know My Father also."

Father, glorify Thy Name!" There came, therefore, a voice out of Heaven, "I both glorified it, and will glorify it again."

Jesus spake these things; and, lifting up His eyes to Heaven, said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify Thy Son, that the Son may glorify Thee;

I manifested Thy name to the men whom Thou gavest Me out of the world. Thine they were; and Thou gavest them to Me; and they have kept Thy word.

While I was with them, I was keeping, in Thy name, those Whom Thou hast given Me; and I guarded them, and no one of them perished, except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

I have given them Thy word, and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

Sanctify them in the truth; Thy word is truth.

and I made known to them Thy name, and will make it known; that the love with which Thou lovedst Me may be in them, and I in them."

Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the high priests delivered Thee up to me: what didst Thou do?"

because Thou wilt not leave My soul behind unto Hades; neither wilt Thou give Thy Holy One to see corruption.

Thou didst make known to Me the ways of life; Thou wilt make Me full of gladness with Thy presence.'

till I make Thy foes a footstool for Thy feet.'

Who, through the Holy Spirit by the mouth of our father David, Thy servant, didst say, 'Why did the gentiles rage, and the peoples premeditate empty things?

For, of a truth, there were gathered together in this city, against Thy Holy Child Jesus, Whom Thou didst anoint, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the gentiles and peoples of Israel??28 to do whatsoever Thy hand and Thy counsel predetermined to come to pass.

And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings; and grant to Thy servants to speak Thy word with all boldness,

by stretching forth Thy hand for healing; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Thy Holy Child Jesus."

And Ananias answered, "Lord, I heard from many concerning this man, how many evils he did to Thy saints in Jerusalem;

and here he has authority from the high priests to bind all those calling on Thy name."

Wherefore, in another place, He saith, 'Thou wilt not give Thy Holy One to see corruption.'

and, when the blood of Stephen, Thy witness, was poured forth, I myself also was standing by, and approving, and guarding the garments of those who slew him.

May it not be! But let God be true, and every man a liar; as it has been written, "That Thou mayest be justified in Thy words; and mayest overcome, when Thou judgest."

As it has been written, "For Thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."

"Lord, they have killed Thy prophets, they have digged down Thy altars; and I am left alone, and they are seeking my soul."

and that the gentiles might glorify God for His mercy; as it has been written, "For this cause, I will confess to Thee among the gentiles; and to Thy name will I sing praise."

but respecting the Son, "Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever"; and, "A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Thy Kingdom;

Thou lovedst righteousness, and hatedst iniquity; therefore, God, Thy God, anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows";

and, "Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of Thy hands.

and as a mantle Thou wilt roll them up, as a garment also they shall be changed; but Thou art the same, and Thy years shall not fail."

Thou madest him a little less than angels; Thou crownedst him with glory and honor; and didst set him over the works of Thy hands;

saying, "I will declare Thy name to my brethren; in the midst of an assembly will I sing praise to Thee."

Then said I, 'Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it has been written concerning Me), to do Thy will, O God.'"

then hath He said, "Lo, I have come to do Thy will." He taketh away the first, that He may establish the second:

"Worthy art Thou, our Lord and our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power; because Thou didst create all things; and, because of Thy will, they were, and were created."

And they sing a new song, saying, "Worthy art Thou to take the book, and to open its seals; because Thou wast slain, and didst redeem to God, by Thy blood, some of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

saying, "We give thanks to Thee, O Lord God, the Almighty, Who art, and Who wast; because Thou hast taken Thy great power, and didst reign.

And the nations were angered, and Thy anger came, and the time of the dead to be judged, and to give the reward to Thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and to those who fear Thy name, the small and the great; and to destroy those who destroy the earth."

And another angel came forth out of the Temple, crying with a great voice to Him Who was sitting upon the cloud, "Send forth Thy sickle, and reap; because the hour to reap came, because the harvest of the earth was fully dried.

And they sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, "Great and marvelous are Thy works, O Lord God, the Almighty; righteous and true are Thy ways, Thou King of the ages.

Who will not fear, O Lord, and glorify Thy name? because Thou only art holy; because all the nations shall come, and worship before Thee; because Thy righteous acts were made manifest."

And I heard another out of the altar, saying, "Yea, O Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are Thy judgments."
