They told him, "In Bethlehem belonging to Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet:

But when he noticed a number of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers, who told you to flee from the coming Wrath?

Then Jesus told him, "Begone, Satan! it is written, You must worship the Lord your God, and serve him alone."

You have heard how the men of old were told, 'Murder not: whoever murders must come up for sentence,

Once again, you have heard how the men of old were told, 'You must not forswear yourself but discharge your vows to the Lord'.

Then Jesus told him, "See, you are not to say a word to anybody; away and show yourself to the priest and offer the gift prescribed by Moses, to notify men."

But he replied to the man who told him this, "Who is my mother? and who are my brothers?"

He told them another parable. "The Realm of heaven," he said, "is like dough which a woman took and buried in three pecks of flour, till all of it was leavened."

since John had told him, "You have no right to her."

Then they realized that what he told them to beware of was not leaven but the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

They told him, "Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

When his adherents mustered in Galilee Jesus told them, "The Son of man is to be betrayed into the hands of men;

'Because nobody hired us,' they said. He told them, 'You go into the vineyard too.'

The crowd checked them and told them to be quiet, but they shouted all the louder, "O Lord, Son of David, have pity on us!"

So the disciples went and did as Jesus told them;

and told them, "It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you make it a den of robbers."

"Caesar's," they said. Then he told them, "Give Caesar what belongs to Caesar, give God what belongs to God."

So the disciples did as Jesus had told them, and prepared the passover.

Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he told the disciples, "Sit here till I go over there and pray."

He is not here, he has risen, as he told you he would. See, here is the place where he [the Lord] lay.

and told them to say that "his disciples came at night and stole him when we were asleep."

Simon's mother-in-law was in bed with fever, so they told him at once about her,

and discovered him; they told him, "Everybody is looking for you,"

Then glancing round him in anger and vexation at their obstinacy he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out and his hand was quite restored.

So he told his disciples to have a small boat ready; it was to prevent him being crushed by the crowd,

there was a crowd sitting round him, and he was told, "Here are your mother and brothers and sisters wanting you outside."

And he woke up, checked the wind, and told the sea, "Peace, be quiet." The wind fell and there was a great calm.

Instantly Jesus ignored the remark and told the president, "Have no fear, only believe."

But he strictly forbade them to let anyone know about it, and told them to give her something to eat.

Also, he told them, "Wherever you enter a house, stay there till you leave the place.

John had told Herod, "You have no right to your brother's wife."

He said, "How many loaves have you got? Go and see." When they found out they told him, "Five, and two fish."

and as they also had a few small fish, he blessed them too and told the disciples to serve them out as well.

"John the Baptist," they told him, "though some say Elijah, and others say you are one of the prophets."

and whenever it seizes him it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth. He is wasting away with it; so I told your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

A number of the people checked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have pity on me!"

Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." Then they called the blind man and told him, "Courage! Get up, he is calling you."

So they answered as Jesus had told them, and the men allowed them to go.

The disciples went away into the city and found it was as he had told them. So they prepared the passover,

"One of the twelve," he told them, "one who is dipping into the same dish as I am.

Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and he told his disciples, "Sit here till I pray."

At that moment the cock crowed for the second time. Then Peter remembered how Jesus had told him, "Before the cock crows twice you will disown me thrice;" and he burst into tears.

Go you and tell his disciples and Peter, 'He precedes you to Galilee; you shall see him there, as he told you.'"

But you will be silent and unable to speak till the day this happens, because you have not believed what I told you; it will be accomplished, for all that, in due time."

but the mother told them, "No, the child is to be called John."

Now when the angels had left them and gone away to heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us be off to Bethlehem to see this thing that the Lord has told us of."

When they saw this they told people about the word which had been spoken to them about the child;

Then the shepherds went away back, glorifying and extolling God for all they had heard and seen as they had been told they would.

Then he went down along with them to Nazaret, and did as they told him. His mother treasured up everything in her heart.

To the crowds who came out to get baptized by him John said, "You brood of vipers, who told you to flee from the coming Wrath?

He also told them a parable: "No one tears a piece from a new cloak and sews it on an old cloak; otherwise he will tear the new cloak, and the new piece will not match with the old.

He knew what was in their minds; so he told the man with the withered hand, "Rise and stand forward." He rose and stood before them.

He also told them a parabolic word: "Can one blind man lead another? will they not both fall into a pit?

So when the woman saw she had not escaped notice, she came trembling, and falling down before him she told before all the people why she had touched him and how she had been instantly cured.

And he told them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither stick nor wallet nor bread nor silver, and do not carry two shirts.

When the voice ceased, they found themselves alone with Jesus. And in those days they kept silence and told nobody anything of what they had seen.

And he told them a parable. "A rich man's estate bore heavy crops.

And he told this parable. "A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; he came in search of fruit on it but he found none.

He also told a parable to the guests, when he observed how they picked out the best places.

So he told them this parable,

The servant told him, 'Your brother has arrived, and your father has killed the fatted calf because he has got him back safe and sound.'

'A hundred barrels of oil,' he said. The factor told him, 'Here is your bill; sit down at once and enter fifty barrels.'

So he told them, "You are the people who get men to think you are good, but God knows what your hearts are! What is lofty in the view of man is loathsome in the eyes of God.

He also told them a parable about the need of always praying and never losing heart.

He also told the following parable to certain persons who were sure of their own goodness and looked down upon everybody else.

Then he took the twelve aside and told them, "We are going up to Jerusalem, and all the predictions of the prophets regarding the Son of man will be fulfilled;

and they told him that Jesus the Nazarene was going by.

The people in front checked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have pity on me!"

The messengers went off and found the colt exactly as he had told them.

"It is written," he told them, "my house shall be a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of robbers."

And he told them a parable. "Look at the fig tree and indeed all the trees;

They went off and found it was as he had told them. So they prepared the passover,

the Lord turned round and looked at Peter, and then Peter remembered what the Lord had told him, that 'Before cock-crow to-day you will disown me three times.'

He is not here, he has risen. Remember how he told you when he was still in Galilee

(It was Mary of Magdala, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James who with the rest of the women told this to the apostles.)

who told them that the Lord had really risen and that he had appeared to Simon.

Then he said to them, "When I was still with you, this is what I told you, that whatever is written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled."

I myself did not recognize him, but He who sent me to baptize with water told me, 'He on whom you see the Spirit descending and resting, that is he who baptizes with the holy Spirit.'

In the morning he met his brother Simon and told him, "We have found the messiah" (which may be translated, 'Christ').

Next day Jesus determined to leave for Galilee; there he met Philip and told him, "Follow me."

he met Nathanael and told him, "We have found him whom Moses wrote about in the Law, and also the prophets ??it is Jesus, the son of Joseph, who comes from Nazaret."

Jesus answered, "You believe because I told you I had seen you under that fig tree? You shall see more than that."

and told the pigeon-dealers, "Away with these! My Father's house is not to be turned into a shop!"

and they came and told John, "Rabbi, the man who was with you on the opposite side of the Jordan, the man to whom you bore testimony ??here he is, baptizing, and everybody goes to him!"

Then the woman left her water-pot, and going off to the town told the people,

"Come here, look at a man who has told me everything I ever did! Can he be the Christ?"

Now many Samaritans belonging to that town believed in him on account of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I ever did."

As they told the woman, "We no longer believe on account of what you said; we have heard for ourselves, we know that he is really the Saviour of the world."

Jesus told him, "Go yourself, your son is alive." The man believed what Jesus told him, and started on his journey.

So he asked them at what hour he had begun to improve; they told him, "Yesterday at one o'clock the fever left him."

He replied, "But the man who healed me, he told me, 'Lift your mat and walk'."

They questioned him, "Who was it that told you, 'Lift it and walk'?"

Off went the man and told the Jews it was Jesus who had healed him.

But, as I told you, though you have seen me, you do not believe.

Jesus told them in reply, "My teaching is not my own but his who sent me;

So I told you, you would die in your sins; for unless you believe who I am, you will die in your sins."

but now you want to kill me ??to kill a man who has told you the truth, the truth I have learned from God. Abraham did not do that.

He replied, "The man they call Jesus made some clay and smeared my eyes with it and told me, 'Go and wash them in Siloam'; so I went and washed them, and I got my sight."

So the Pharisees asked him again how he had regained his sight, and he told them, "He smeared some clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and now I can see."

So the man born blind was summoned a second time, and told, "Now give God the praise; this man, we know quite well, is only a sinner."
