Now it came about in those days that an order went out from Caesar Augustus that there was to be a numbering of all the world.

And all those to whose ears it came were full of wonder at the things said by the keepers of the sheep.

And coming up at that time, she gave praise to God, talking of him to all those who were waiting for the freeing of Jerusalem.

And he came into all the country round about Jordan, preaching baptism as a sign of forgiveness of sin for those whose hearts were changed.

For forty days, being tested by the Evil One. And he had no food in those days; and when they came to an end, he was in need of food.

The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make well those who are broken-hearted; to say that the prisoners will be let go, and the blind will see, and to make the wounded free from their chains,

And at sundown all those who had anyone ill with any sort of disease, took them to him, and he put his hands on every one of them and made them well.

For he was full of wonder and so were all those who were with him, at the number of fish which they had taken;

And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.

And Jesus, answering, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.

And Jesus said, Have you not seen in the Writings what David did when he was in need of food, he, and those who were with him;

How he went into the house of God and took for food the holy bread, which only the priests may take, and gave it to those who were with him?

And it came about in those days that he went out to the mountain for prayer; and he was all night in prayer to God.

And those who were troubled with unclean spirits were made well.

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,

Give blessing to those who give you curses, say prayers for those who are cruel to 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 if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is it to you? for even sinners do the same.

And if you let those have the use of your money, from whom you are hoping to get it back, what credit is it to you? even sinners do so to sinners, hoping to get back as much as they gave.

But be loving to those who are against you and do them good, and give them your money, not giving up hope, and your reward will be great and you will be the sons of the Most High: for he is kind to evil men, and to those who have hard hearts.

And when those who were sent came back to the house they saw that the servant was well.

And he came near, and put his hand on the stretcher where the dead man was: and those who were moving it came to a stop. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Get up.

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.

But what did you go out to see? a man in soft clothing? See now, those who have beautiful clothing and delicate food are in kings' houses.

And those who were seated at table with him said to themselves, Who is this who even gives forgiveness of sins?

Those by the side of the road are those who have given hearing; then the Evil One comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not have faith and get salvation.

And those on the rock are those who with joy give hearing to the word; but having no root, they have faith for a time, and when the test comes they give up.

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 those in the good earth are those who, having given ear to the word, keep it with a good and true heart, and in quiet strength give fruit.

No man, when the light is lighted, puts a cover over it, or puts it under a bed, but he puts it on its table, so that those who come in may see the light.

But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it.

Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.

And those who had seen it gave them an account of how the man who had the evil spirits was made well.

And Jesus said, Who was touching me? And when they all said, It is not I, Peter and those who were with him said, Master, the people are pushing round you on every side.

And he sent them out to be preachers of the kingdom of God, and to make well those who were ill.

But the people, getting news of it, went after him: and he was pleased to see them, and gave them teaching about the kingdom of God, and made those well who were in need of it.

But truly I say to you, Some of those who are here now will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God.

Now Peter and those who were with him were overcome with sleep: but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men who were with him.

And another man said, I will come with you, Lord, but first let me say a last good-day to those who are at my house.

And make well those in it who are ill and say to them, The kingdom of God is near to you.

May we have forgiveness for our sins, as we make free all those who are in debt to us. And let us not be put to the test.

If, then, you who are evil are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who make request to him?

No man, when the light has been lighted, puts it in a secret place, or under a vessel, but on its table, so that those who come in may see the light.

A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not go in yourselves, and you got in the way of those who were going in.

And I say to you, my friends, Have no fear of those who may put the body to death, and are able to do no more than that.

Happy are those servants who are watching when the lord comes; truly I say to you, he will make himself their servant and, placing them at the table, he will come out and give them food.

And if he comes in the second division of the night or in the third, and they are watching for him, happy are those servants.

The lord of that servant will come at a time when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not ready for him, and he will have him cut in two and will give him his part in the fate of those who have no faith;

Or those eighteen men who were crushed by the fall of the tower of Siloam, were they worse than all the other men living in Jerusalem?

And the ruler of the Synagogue was angry because Jesus had made her well on the Sabbath, and he said to the people, There are six days in which men may do work: so come on those days to be made well, and not on the Sabbath.

And when he said these things, those who were against him were shamed, and all the people were full of joy because of the great things which were done by him.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who were sent to her! again and again would I have taken your children to myself, as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, but you would not!

But when you give a feast, send for the poor and the blind and those who are broken in body:

And, hearing these words, one of those who were at table with him said to him, Happy is the man who will be a guest in the kingdom of God.

And the servant came back and gave his master an account of these things. Then the master of the house was angry and said to the servant, Go out quickly into the streets of the town and get the poor, the blind, and those who are broken in body.

For I say to you that not one of those who were requested to come will have a taste of my feast.

And he said, You take care to seem right in the eyes of men, but God sees your hearts: and those things which are important in the opinion of men, are evil in the eyes of God.

And in addition, there is a deep division fixed between us and you, so that those who might go from here to you are not able to do so, and no one may come from you to us.

And Jesus, looking at him, said, How hard it is for those who have wealth to get into the kingdom of God!

And those who were present said, Then who may have salvation?

And it came about that when he got near Jericho, a certain blind man was seated by the side of the road, making requests for money from those who went by.

And those who were in front made protests and said to him, Be quiet: but he said all the more, O Son of David, have mercy on me.

For the Son of man came to make search for those who are wandering from the way, and to be their Saviour.

And when he came back again, having got his kingdom, he gave orders for those servants to whom he had given the money to come to him, so that he might have an account of what business they had done.

And as for those who were against me, who would not have me for their ruler, let them come here, and be put to death before me.

And those whom he sent went away, and it was as he said.

And he went into the Temple and put out those who were trading there,

And it came about on one of those days, when he was teaching the people in the Temple and preaching the good news,

But those to whom is given the reward of the world to come, and to come back from the dead, have no wives, and are not married;

And death has no more power over them, for they are equal to the angels, and are sons of God, being of those who will come back from the dead.

Till I put under your feet all those who are against you.

For I will give you words and wisdom, so that not one of those who are against you will be able to get the better of you, or to put you in the wrong.

Then let those who are in Judaea go in flight to the mountains; and those who are in the middle of the town go out; and let not those who are in the country come in.

It will be hard for women who are with child, and for her with a baby at the breast, in those days. For great trouble will come on the land, and wrath on this people.

For so it will come on all those who are living on the face of all the earth.

And he said, The kings of the Gentiles are lords over them, and those who have authority are given names of honour.

But you are those who have kept with me through my troubles;

And when those who were with him saw what was coming, they said, Lord, may we not make use of our swords?

For the days are coming in which they will say, Happy are those who have had no children, whose bodies have never given birth, whose breasts have never given milk.

And they were talking together about all those things which had taken place.

And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see.

To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:

So they said to him, Who are you then? We have to give some answer to those who sent us. What have you to say about yourself?

Those who had been sent came from the Pharisees.

And to those who were trading in doves he said, Take these things away; do not make my Father's house a market.

In the same way, as the Father gives life to the dead, even so the Son gives life to those to whom he is pleased to give it.

Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.

And they will come out; those who have done good, into the new life; and those who have done evil, to be judged.

You make search in the holy Writings, in the belief that through them you get eternal life; and it is those Writings which give witness about me.

And a great number of people went after him because they saw the signs which he did on those who were ill.

Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples, they got into those boats and went over to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

This he said of the Spirit which would be given to those who had faith in him: the Spirit had not been given then, because the glory of Jesus was still to come.

And Jesus said, I came into this world to be a judge, so that those who do not see may see, and those who see may become blind.

Jesus said to them in answer, I have let you see a number of good works from the Father; for which of those works are you stoning me?

So they made him a meal there, and he was waited on by Martha, and Lazarus was among those who were seated with him at table.

Now before the feast of the Passover, it was clear to Jesus that the time had come for him to go away from this world to the Father. Having once had love for those in the world who were his, his love for them went on to the end.

Even as you gave him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him.

My prayer is for them: my prayer is not for the world, but for those whom you have given to me, because they are yours

(He said this so that his words might come true, I have kept safe all those whom you gave to me.)
