Then the Pharisees went and consulted together how l they might ensnare him in speech.

Tell us then, how, to thee, it seemeth? Is it allowable to give tax unto Caesar, or not?

But Jesus answered them, "You are mistaken [in your reasoning], not knowing [what] the Scriptures [teach] or [how much] power God has.

When the Pharisees had heard, how that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they drew together,

How, to you, doth it seem, concerning the Christ? Whose son, is he? They say unto him - David's.

He said to them: How then does David in spirit call him Lord, saying,

If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door to the kingdom from heaven in people's faces. You don't go in yourselves, and you don't allow those who are trying to enter to go in.

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You devour widows' houses and say long prayers to cover it up. Therefore, you will receive greater condemnation!

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to make a single convert, and when this happens you make him twice as fit for hell as you are.

"How terrible it will be for you, blind guides! You say, "Whoever swears an oath by the sanctuary is excused, but whoever swears an oath by the gold of the sanctuary must keep his oath.'

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your mint, dill, and cummin, but have neglected the more important matters of the Law: justice, mercy, and faithfulness. These are the things you should have practiced, without neglecting the others.

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but on the inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs that look beautiful on the outside but inside are full of dead people's bones and every kind of impurity.

"How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous.

Serpents! Offspring of vipers! How will you escape from the condemnation to hell?

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How many times I wanted to gather your children together {the way} a hen gathers her young together under [her] wings, and you were not willing!

I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, "How blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!'"

"How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or who are nursing babies in those days!

They were unaware of what was happening until the flood came and swept all of them away. That's how it will be when the Son of Man comes.

How blessed is that servant whom his master finds doing this when he comes!

and held a counsel, how they might take Jesus by subtlety, and kill him.

The Son of Man is going away, just as it has been written about him. How terrible it will be for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for him if he had never been born."

But how then should the scriptures be fulfilled? For so must it be."

Peter, however, followed him at a distance as far as the high priest's courtyard. He went inside and sat down with the servants to see how this would end.

And the chief priest arose, and said to him, "Answerest thou nothing? How is it that these bear witness against thee?"

How, to you, doth it seem? And, they, answering, said: Guilty of death, he is.

and Peter recollected the words of Jesus, how He had said, "Before the cock crows you will three times disown me." And he went out and wept aloud, bitterly.

And when the morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, how they might put him to death.

Then said Pilate unto him, "Hearest thou not how many things they lay against thee?"

and said, "Sir, we remember how that impostor said while he was still alive, "I will be raised after three days.'

Pilate said to them, "You have a guard of soldiers. Go, make [it] as secure as you know how."

This is [how] the good news about Jesus Christ, the Son of God, began.

said he, how you take the least notice of this to any man: but go, show your self to the priest, and offer for your cure what Moses commanded, that this may serve as a testimony against them.

"How doth this fellow so blaspheme? Who can forgive sins, but God only?"

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, "How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?"

Now the disciples of John and the Pharisees were keeping a fast, and people came to ask him, "How is it that the disciples of John and the Pharisees are fasting, but your disciples are not?"

upon which the Pharisees said to him, pray observe how they trespass on the sabbath-day.

How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the hallowed loaves, which is not lawful but for the priests only to eat: and gave also to them which were with him?"

And the Pharisees went out immediately with the Herodians {and began to conspire} against him with regard to how they could destroy him.

and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon -- a great multitude -- having heard how great things he was doing, came unto him.

And he called them unto him, and in similitudes said unto them, "How can Satan drive out Satan?

And he said unto them, "Perceive ye not this similitude? How then should ye understand all other similitudes?

And he said to them: Take heed how you hear; with what measure you measure, it shall be measured to you; and to you that hear, more shall be given;

And he sleeps and gets up, night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows--{he does not know how}.

And he said, How should we liken the kingdom of God, or with what comparison should we compare it?

and he said unto them, "Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith?"

And they that saw it told them, how it had happened unto him that was possessed with the devil: and also of the swine.

Howbeit, Jesus would not suffer him but said unto him, "Go home into thine own house and to thy friends, and show them what great things the Lord hath done unto thee, and how he had compassion on thee."

And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered.

when the sabbath was come, he preach'd in the synagogue, to the great astonishment of many, who upon hearing his discourse, said, how came he by all this? what strange endowment of knowledge is this, that he should work such miracles?

And the apostles are gathered together unto Jesus, and they told him all, and how many things they did, and how many things they taught,

He said unto them, "How many loaves have ye? Go and look." And when they had searched, they said, "Five, and two fishes."

When He saw how distressed His disciples were, rowing against an opposing wind, Jesus came to them between three and six o'clock in the morning, walking on the water, and almost walked past them.

So the Pharisees and the Teachers of the Law asked Jesus this question--"How is it that your disciples do not follow the traditions of our ancestors, but eat their food with defiled hands?"

"How skilful you are," he said to them, "in nullifying what God has commanded in order to observe what has been handed down to you.

He said to them, "So you do not understand, either? Do you not see how nothing outside a man can defile him by entering him?

and people were amazed beyond measure saying. "How successfully he does things! Even the deaf he makes to hear, and the dumb to speak."

his disciples answer'd, how is it possible here in the desart to furnish bread enough for all this company?

And he asked them, "How many loaves have ye?" They said, "Seven."

When I brake five loaves among five thousand men: How many baskets full of broken meat took ye up?" They said unto him, "Twelve."

"When I brake seven among four thousand how many baskets of the leavings of broken meat took ye up?" They said, "Seven."

And he said unto them, "How is it that ye understand not?"

And he began to teach them, how that the son of man must suffer many things, and should be reproved of the elders and of the high priests and scribes, and should be killed, and after three days arise again.

Then Peter spoke, and said to Jesus, "Master, how good it is that we are here! Let us put up three huts, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah."

(Peter didn't know how to respond, because they were terrified.)

So they asked him, "How is it that the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?"

And he said to them, "Elijah indeed does come first [and] restores all [things]. And how is it written concerning the Son of Man that he should suffer many [things] and be treated with contempt?

He answered him and said, "O generation without faith, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him unto me."

How long shall I suffer you? Bring him to me. And they brought him to him. And when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him, and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

And he asked his father, "How long is it ago, since this hath happened him?" And he said, "Of a child.

And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, How is it that we could not cast it out?

where their worm [that feeds on the dead] does not die, and the fire is not put out.

Everyone must be seasoned with fire. Salt is a good thing, but if salt loses its strength, how can you season it again?

Salt is good. But if salt loses its taste, how can you restore its flavor? Keep on having salt among yourselves, and live in peace with one another."

And Jesus looked around [and] said to his disciples, "How {difficult it is for} those who possess wealth to enter into the kingdom of God!"

And his disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answered again, and said unto them, "Children: how hard is it for them, that trust in their riches, to enter into the kingdom of God?

"My sons, how hard it is for those who trust in money to enter the kingdom of God. It is easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven."

at this they were more amazed than before, and said to one another, how then can such a man be saved?

Jesus, however, called them to Him and said to them, "You are aware how those who are deemed rulers among the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men make them feel their authority;

Those who went ahead and those who followed him were shouting, "Hosanna! How blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!

How blessed is the coming kingdom of our ancestor David! Hosanna in the highest heaven!"

And he taught, saying unto them, "Is it not written, how that my house shall be called 'The house of prayer unto all nations?' But ye have made it a den of thieves."

And the scribes and high priests heard it and sought how to destroy him. For they feared him, because all the people marveled at his doctrine.

then they contriv'd how they might seize him, for they perceived, that he applied the parable to them; but for fear of the people they left him, and went away.

Jesus said to them, "Is not this the reason that you are [so] mistaken, that you do not know [what] the Scriptures [teach] or [how much] power God has?

But concerning the dead, that they do rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, at The Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

Then one of the scribes came near and heard the Sadducees arguing with one another. He saw how well Jesus answered them, so he asked him, "Which commandment is the most important of them all?"

When Jesus saw how wisely the man answered, he told him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." After that, no one dared to ask him another question.

And Jesus, as he was teaching in the temple, answered and said: How say the scribes that the Christ is the son of David?

David himself, then, calls him Lord; and how is he his son? And the great multitude heard him with pleasure.

And Jesus, sitting opposite the treasury, observed how the multitude threw money into the treasury. And many rich persons threw in much.

And He departing out from the temple, one of His disciples says to Him, Teacher, behold, how great stones and how great buildings!

"How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or who are nursing babies in those days!

Now after two days was the feast of the passover and the unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him with subtlety, and kill him:

And they, when they heard it, were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently deliver him unto them .

For the Son of Man is going away, just as it has been written about him, but how terrible it will be for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for him if he had never been born."

then he return'd and found them still sleeping, for their eyes were heavy, and they did not know how to give an answer.

And the highest priest stood up amongst them all, and asked Jesus saying, "Answerest thou nothing? How is it that these bear witness against thee?"

You have heard the blasphemy; how does it seem to you?” And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death.
