And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, 'If the Son thou art of God, cast thyself down hence,

And Jesus answering said to him -- 'It hath been said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'

and all were bearing testimony to him, and were wondering at the gracious words that are coming forth out of his mouth, and they said, 'Is not this the son of Joseph?'

And he said unto them, 'Certainly ye will say to me this simile, Physician, heal thyself; as great things as we heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country;'

and he said, 'Verily I say to you -- No prophet is accepted in his own country;

and he said unto them -- 'Also to the other cities it behoveth me to proclaim good news of the reign of God, because for this I have been sent;'

And when he left off speaking, he said unto Simon, 'Put back to the deep, and let down your nets for a draught;'

and Simon answering said to him, 'Master, through the whole night, having laboured, we have taken nothing, but at thy saying I will let down the net.'

and in like manner also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon; and Jesus said unto Simon, 'Fear not, henceforth thou shalt be catching men;'

and having stretched forth his hand, he touched him, having said, 'I will; be thou cleansed;' and immediately the leprosy went away from him.

and he having seen their faith, said to him, 'Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'

And Jesus having known their reasonings, answering, said unto them, 'What reason ye in your hearts?

And that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority upon the earth to forgive sins -- (he said to the one struck with palsy) -- I say to thee, Arise, and having taken up thy little couch, be going on to thy house.'

And after these things he went forth, and beheld a tax-gatherer, by name Levi, sitting at the tax-office, and said to him, 'Be following me;'

And Jesus answering said unto them, 'They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill:

And they said unto him, 'Wherefore do the disciples of John fast often, and make supplications -- in like manner also those of the Pharisees -- but thine do eat and drink?'

And he said unto them, 'Are ye able to make the sons of the bride-chamber -- in the bridegroom being with them -- to fast?

and certain of the Pharisees said to them, 'Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbaths?'

And Jesus answering said unto them, 'Did ye not read even this that David did, when he hungered, himself and those who are with him,

and he said to them, -- 'The Son of Man is lord also of the sabbath.'

And he himself had known their reasonings, and said to the man having the withered hand, 'Rise, and stand in the midst;' and he having risen, stood.

Then said Jesus unto them, 'I will question you something: Is it lawful on the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? life to save or to kill?'

And having looked round on them all, he said to the man, 'Stretch forth thy hand;' and he did so, and his hand was restored whole as the other;

And he, having lifted up his eyes to his disciples, said: 'Happy the poor -- because yours is the reign of God.

And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following him, he said, 'I say to you, not even in Israel so much faith did I find;'

And the Lord having seen her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, 'Be not weeping;'

and having come near, he touched the bier, and those bearing it stood still, and he said, 'Young man, to thee I say, Arise;'

And having come near to him, the men said, 'John the Baptist sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?'

And Jesus answering said to them, 'Having gone on, report to John what ye saw and heard, that blind men do see again, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;

And the Lord said, 'To what, then, shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

And Jesus answering said unto him, 'Simon, I have something to say to thee;' and he saith, 'Teacher, say on.'

And Simon answering said, 'I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;' and he said to him, 'Rightly thou didst judge.'

And having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, 'Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe;

And he said to her, 'Thy sins have been forgiven;'

and he said unto the woman, 'Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.'

And he said, 'To you it hath been given to know the secrets of the reign of God, and to the rest in similes; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.

and he answering said unto them, 'My mother and my brethren! they are those who the word of God are hearing, and doing.'

And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he himself went into a boat with his disciples, and he said unto them, 'We may go over to the other side of the lake;' and they set forth,

and he said to them, 'Where is your faith?' and they being afraid did wonder, saying unto one another, 'Who, then, is this, that even the winds he doth command, and the water, and they obey him?'

and having seen Jesus, and having cried out, he fell before him, and with a loud voice, said, 'What -- to me and to thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I beseech thee, mayest thou not afflict me!'

And Jesus questioned him, saying, 'What is thy name?' and he said, 'Legion,' (because many demons were entered into him,)

And Jesus said, 'Who is it that touched me?' and all denying, Peter and those with him said, 'Master, the multitudes press thee, and throng thee, and thou dost say, Who is it that touched me!'

And Jesus said, 'Some one did touch me, for I knew power having gone forth from me.'

and he said to her, 'Take courage, daughter, thy faith hath saved thee, be going on to peace.'

And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things being done by him, and was perplexed, because it was said by certain, that John hath been raised out of the dead;

and Herod said, 'John I did behead, but who is this concerning whom I hear such things?' and he was seeking to see him.

And the day began to decline, and the twelve having come near, said to him, 'Let away the multitude, that having gone to the villages and the fields round about, they may lodge and may find provision, because here we are in a desert place.'

And he said unto them, 'Give ye them to eat;' and they said, 'We have no more than five loaves, and two fishes: except, having gone, we may buy for all this people victuals;'

for they were about five thousand men. And he said unto his disciples, 'Cause them to recline in companies, in each fifty;'

And they answering said, 'John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen;'

and he said to them, 'And ye -- who do ye say me to be?' and Peter answering said, 'The Christ of God.'

And he said unto all, 'If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me;

And it came to pass, in their parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, 'Master, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,' not knowing what he saith:

And Jesus answering said, 'O generation, unstedfast and perverse, till when shall I be with you, and suffer you? bring near hither thy son;'

And they were all amazed at the greatness of God, and while all are wondering at all things that Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,

and said to them, 'Whoever may receive this child in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth receive Him who sent me, for he who is least among you all -- he shall be great.'

And John answering said, 'Master, we saw a certain one in thy name casting forth the demons, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow with us;'

and Jesus said unto him, 'Forbid not, for he who is not against us, is for us.'

And his disciples James and John having seen, said, 'Sir, wilt thou that we may command fire to come down from the heaven, and to consume them, as also Elijah did?'

and having turned, he rebuked them, and said, 'Ye have not known of what spirit ye are;

And it came to pass, as they are going on in the way, a certain one said unto him, 'I will follow thee wherever thou mayest go, sir;'

and Jesus said to him, 'The foxes have holes, and the fowls of the heaven places of rest, but the Son of Man hath not where he may recline the head.'

And he said unto another, 'Be following me;' and he said, 'Sir, permit me, having gone away, first to bury my father;'

and Jesus said to him, 'Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, and thou, having gone away, publish the reign of God.'

And another also said, 'I will follow thee, sir, but first permit me to take leave of those in my house;'

and Jesus said unto him, 'No one having put his hand on a plough, and looking back, is fit for the reign of God.'

then said he unto them, 'The harvest indeed is abundant, but the workmen few; beseech ye then the Lord of the harvest, that He may put forth workmen to His harvest.

and he said to them, 'I was beholding the Adversary, as lightning from the heaven having fallen;

And he answering said, 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God out of all thy heart, and out of all thy soul, and out of all thy strength, and out of all thy understanding, and thy neighbour as thyself.'

And he said to him, 'Rightly thou didst answer; this do, and thou shalt live.'

And he, willing to declare himself righteous, said unto Jesus, 'And who is my neighbour?'

and Jesus having taken up the word, said, 'A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and having stripped him and inflicted blows, they went away, leaving him half dead.

and on the morrow, going forth, taking out two denaries, he gave to the innkeeper, and said to him, Be careful of him, and whatever thou mayest spend more, I, in my coming again, will give back to thee.

and Martha was distracted about much serving, and having stood by him, she said, 'Sir, dost thou not care that my sister left me alone to serve? say then to her, that she may partake along with me.'

And he said, 'Yea, rather, happy those hearing the word of God, and keeping it!'

And the Lord said unto him, 'Now do ye, the Pharisees, the outside of the cup and of the plate make clean, but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness;

and he said, 'And to you, the lawyers, woe! because ye burden men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves with one of your fingers do not touch the burdens.
