And he told this parable: "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came looking for fruit on it and did not find [any].

At [that] same hour some Pharisees came up [and] said to him, "Go out and depart from here, because Herod wants to kill you!"

And it happened that when he came to the house of a certain one of the leaders of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat {a meal}, they were watching him closely.

And the slave came [and] reported these [things] to his master. Then the master of the house became angry [and] said to his slave, 'Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame!'

"But [when he] came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired workers have an abundance {of food}, and I am dying here from hunger!

And he set out [and] came to his own father. But [while] he was still a long way away, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran {and embraced him} and kissed him.

"Now his older son was in the field, and when he came [and] approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

But he became angry and did not want to go in. So his father came out [and] began to implore him.

and was longing to be filled with what fell from the table of the rich man. But even the dogs came [and] licked his sores.

they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage, until the day Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed [them] all.

And when he came to the place, Jesus looked up [and] said to him, "Zacchaeus, come down quickly, because it is necessary [for] me to stay at your house today!"

And he came down quickly and welcomed him joyfully.

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save those who are lost."

And the second came, saying, 'Sir, your mina has made five minas.'

And another came, saying, 'Sir, behold your mina, which I had put away for safekeeping in a piece of cloth.

Now some of the Sadducees--who deny {that there is a resurrection}--came up [and] asked him,

And they were delighted, and came to an agreement with him to give [him] money.

And the day of the feast of Unleavened Bread came, on which it was necessary [for] the Passover lamb to be sacrificed.

And when the hour came, he reclined at the table, and the apostles with him.

And [when] he came to the place, he said to them, "Pray that you will not enter into temptation."

And [when he] got up from the prayer [and] came to the disciples, he found them sleeping from sorrow,

[While] he was still speaking, behold, [there came] a crowd, and the one named Judas, one of the twelve, leading them. And he approached Jesus to kiss him.

And when day came, the council of elders of the people gathered, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away to their Sanhedrin,

And when they came to the place that is called "The Skull," there they crucified him, and the criminals, the one on [his] right and the other on [his] left.

And by this time it was about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour

Now on the first [day] of the week, at very early dawn, they came back to the tomb bringing the fragrant spices which they had prepared.

and [when they] did not find his body, they came back saying [they] had seen even a vision of angels, who said [that] he was alive!

All [things] came into being through him, and apart from him not one [thing] came into being that has come into being.

A man came, sent from God, {whose name was} John.

This one came for a witness, in order that he could testify about the light, so that all would believe through him.

That one was not the light, but [came] in order that he could testify about the light.

He was in the world, and the world came into being through him, and the world did not recognize him.

He came to his own [things], and his own [people] did not receive him.

For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came about through Jesus Christ.

And I did not know him, but in order that he could be revealed to Israel, because of this I came baptizing with water."

He said to them, "Come and you will see!" So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day (it was about the tenth hour).

This man came to him at night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that [you are] a teacher who has come from God, for no one is able to perform these signs that you are performing unless God were with him."

After these [things] Jesus and his disciples came into Judean territory, and there he spent time with them and was baptizing.

And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you on the other side of the Jordan, about whom you testified--look, this one is baptizing, and all are coming to him!"

Now he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the piece of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me [water] to drink."

And at this [point] his disciples came, and they were astonished that he was speaking with a woman. However, no one said, "What do you seek?" or "Why are you speaking with her?"

So when the Samaritans came to him, they began asking him to stay with them. And he stayed there two days.

So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, [because they] had seen all [the things] he had done in Jerusalem at the feast (for they themselves had also come to the feast).

Now he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And [there] was at Capernaum a certain royal official whose son was sick.

Now this [is] again a second sign Jesus performed [when he] came from Judea into Galilee.

Now when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.

So they were wanting to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat came to the land to which they were going.

Other boats from Tiberias came near the place where they had eaten the bread [after] the Lord had given thanks.

So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

Now the Jews began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven,"

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats from this bread, he will live {forever}. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."

This is the bread that came down from heaven, not as the fathers ate and died. The one who eats this bread will live {forever}."

So the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees. And they said to them, "{Why} did you not bring him?"

Nicodemus, the one who came to him previously--who was one of them--said to them,

Now early in the morning he came again to the temple [courts]. And all the people were coming, and he sat down [and] began to teach them.

And he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated "sent"). So he went and washed and came back seeing.

All those who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep do not listen to them.

If he called them 'gods' to whom the word of God came--and the scripture cannot be broken--

And many came to him and began to say, "John performed no sign, but everything John said about this man was true!"

So many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary in order to console them concerning their brother.)

Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was [and] saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

Then Jesus, when he saw her weeping and the Jews who came with her weeping, was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled within himself.

Then Jesus, deeply moved within himself again, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone was lying on it.

The one who had died came out, his feet and his hands bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped with a facecloth. Jesus said to them, "Untie him and let him go."

Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

Now a large crowd of Jews found out that he was there, and they came, not only because of Jesus, but so that they could see Lazarus also, whom he raised from the dead.

Father, glorify your name!" Then a voice came from heaven, "I have both glorified [it], and I will glorify [it] again."

Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?"

For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.

So Judas, taking the cohort and officers from the chief priests and from the Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

So Pilate came outside to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"

And Pilate came outside again and said to them, "Behold, I am bringing him outside to you, so that you will know that I find no basis for an accusation against him."

Then Jesus came outside wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, and he said to them, "Behold the man!"

So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who had been crucified with him.

But [when they] came to Jesus, after they saw he was already dead, they did not break his legs.

But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and blood and water came out immediately.

And after these [things], Joseph [who was] from Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but a secret one for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate allowed [it], so he came and took away his body.

And Nicodemus--the one who had come to him formerly at night--also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes [weighing] about a hundred pounds.

Now on the first [day] of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, [while it] was still dark, and saw the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

So she ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and said to them, "They have taken away the Lord from the tomb and we do not know where they have put him!"

And the two were running together, and the other disciple ran ahead, faster than Peter, and came to the tomb first.

Then Simon Peter also came following him, and he went into the tomb and saw the [strips of] linen cloth lying there,

Mary Magdalene came [and] announced to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord," and he had said these [things] to her.

Now [when it] was evening on that day--the first [day] of the week--and the doors had been shut where the disciples were because of fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace to you."

Now Thomas, one of the twelve, who was called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

And after eight days his disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. [Although] the doors had been shut, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said, "Peace to you."

But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net of fish, because they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits away.

Jesus came and took the bread and gave [it] to them, and the fish likewise.

And suddenly a sound like a violent rushing wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.

And fear came on every soul, and many wonders and signs were being performed by the apostles.

And it happened that on the next day, their rulers and elders and scribes came together in Jerusalem,

And [when] Ananias heard these words, he fell down [and] died. And great fear came on all those who heard about [it].

And it happened that [there was] an interval of about three hours, and his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.

And immediately she fell down at his feet and died. So [when] the young men came in, they found her dead, and carried [her] out [and] buried [her] with her husband.

And great fear came on the whole church and on all who heard about these [things].

so that they even carried out the sick into the streets and put [them] on cots and mats so that [when] Peter came by, at least [his] shadow would fall on some of them.

And the people of the towns around Jerusalem also came together, bringing the sick and those tormented by unclean spirits, who were all being healed.

But the officers who came did not find them in the prison, and they returned [and] reported,

But someone came [and] reported to them, "Behold, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple [courts] and teaching the people!"
