But some of the Pharisees said, “Why are you doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?”

Jesus answered them, “Haven’t you read what David and those who were with him did when he was hungry—

They, however, were filled with rage and started discussing with one another what they might do to Jesus.

If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.

If you do what is good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that.

And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners to be repaid in full.

But love your enemies, do what is good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is gracious to the ungrateful and evil.

I will show you what someone is like who comes to Me, hears My words, and acts on them:

After John’s messengers left, He began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?

What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft robes? Look, those who are splendidly dressed and live in luxury are in royal palaces.

What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a prophet.

When the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he said to himself, “This man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what kind of woman this is who is touching Him—she’s a sinner!”

Still other seed fell on good ground; when it sprang up, it produced a crop: 100 times what was sown.” As He said this, He called out, “Anyone who has ears to hear should listen!”

Then His disciples asked Him, “What does this parable mean?”

Therefore take care how you listen. For whoever has, more will be given to him; and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”

When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before Him, and said in a loud voice, “What do You have to do with me, Jesus, You Son of the Most High God? I beg You, don’t torment me!”

“What is your name?” Jesus asked him.

“Legion,” he said—because many demons had entered him.

When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran off and reported it in the town and in the countryside.

Then people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man the demons had departed from, sitting at Jesus’ feet, dressed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

Her parents were astounded, but He instructed them to tell no one what had happened.

What is a man benefited if he gains the whole world, yet loses or forfeits himself?

As the two men were departing from Him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it’s good for us to be here! Let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he said.

After the voice had spoken, only Jesus was found. They kept silent, and in those days told no one what they had seen.

Remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they offer, for the worker is worthy of his wages. Don’t be moving from house to house.

Just then an expert in the law stood up to test Him, saying, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

“What is written in the law?” He asked him. “How do you read it?”

She had a sister named Mary, who also sat at the Lord’s feet and was listening to what He said.

What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead of a fish?

But give from what is within to the poor, and then everything is clean for you.

Therefore, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in an ear in private rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.

Whenever they bring you before synagogues and rulers and authorities, don’t worry about how you should defend yourselves or what you should say.

For the Holy Spirit will teach you at that very hour what must be said.”

He thought to himself, ‘What should I do, since I don’t have anywhere to store my crops?

Then He said to His disciples: “Therefore I tell you, don’t worry about your life, what you will eat; or about the body, what you will wear.

Don’t keep striving for what you should eat and what you should drink, and don’t be anxious.

But know this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.

“‘Master,’ the slave said, ‘what you ordered has been done, and there’s still room.’

“Or what king, going to war against another king, will not first sit down and decide if he is able with 10,000 to oppose the one who comes against him with 20,000?

“What man among you, who has 100 sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the 99 in the open field and go after the lost one until he finds it?

“Or what woman who has 10 silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it?

So he called the manager in and asked, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you can no longer be my manager.’

“Then the manager said to himself, ‘What should I do, since my master is taking the management away from me? I’m not strong enough to dig; I’m ashamed to beg.

And He told them: “You are the ones who justify yourselves in the sight of others, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly admired by people is revolting in God’s sight.

He longed to be filled with what fell from the rich man’s table, but instead the dogs would come and lick his sores.

Does he thank that slave because he did what was commanded?

Then the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says.

A ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

He replied, “What is impossible with men is possible with God.”

Then Peter said, “Look, we have left what we had and followed You.”

They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they did not grasp what was said.

Hearing a crowd passing by, he inquired what this meant.

“What do you want Me to do for you?”

“Lord,” he said, “I want to see!”

because I was afraid of you, for you’re a tough man: you collect what you didn’t deposit and reap what you didn’t sow.’

“He told him, ‘I will judge you by what you have said, you evil slave! If you knew I was a tough man, collecting what I didn’t deposit and reaping what I didn’t sow,

“‘I tell you, that to everyone who has, more will be given; and from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.

So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.

“Therefore, what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

But He looked at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of this Scripture:

The stone that the builders rejected—

They watched closely and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, so they could catch Him in what He said, to hand Him over to the governor’s rule and authority.

They were not able to catch Him in what He said in public, and being amazed at His answer, they became silent.

“Teacher,” they asked Him, “so when will these things be? And what will be the sign when these things are about to take place?”

During the day, He was teaching in the temple complex, but in the evening He would go out and spend the night on what is called the Mount of Olives.

For I tell you, what is written must be fulfilled in Me: And He was counted among the outlaws. Yes, what is written about Me is coming to its fulfillment.”

When those around Him saw what was going to happen, they asked, “Lord, should we strike with the sword?”

But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

A third time he said to them, “Why? What has this man done wrong? I have found in Him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore, I will have Him whipped and then release Him.”

For if they do these things when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

[Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, because they do not know what they are doing.”] And they divided His clothes and cast lots.

We are punished justly, because we’re getting back what we deserve for the things we did, but this man has done nothing wrong.”

When the centurion saw what happened, he began to glorify God, saying, “This man really was righteous!”

All the crowds that had gathered for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, went home, striking their chests.

Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. When he stooped to look in, he saw only the linen cloths. So he went home, amazed at what had happened.

Then He asked them, “What is this dispute that you’re having with each other as you are walking?” And they stopped walking and looked discouraged.

“What then?” they asked him. “Are you Elijah?”

“I am not,” he said.

“Are you the Prophet?”

“No,” he answered.

When Jesus turned and noticed them following Him, He asked them, “What are you looking for?”

They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means “Teacher”), “where are You staying?”

“What has this concern of yours to do with Me, woman?” Jesus asked. “My hour has not yet come.”
