And he went straight up to Jesus and said, "Good evening, Master!" and kissed him affectionately.

Jesus said to him, "My friend, what are you here for?" Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and secured him.

and said, "This man said, 'I can tear down the sanctuary of God, and build it up in three days.' "

And the high priest got up and said to him, "Have you no answer to make? What about their evidence against you?"

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a maid came up to him, and said, "You were with Jesus the Galilean, too!"

A little while after the bystanders came up to Peter and said, "You are certainly one of them too, for your accent shows it!"

The high priests gathered up the money, and they said, "It is not legal to put this into the Temple treasury, for it is blood money."

And they crucified him and divided up his clothes among them by drawing lots,

And one of them ran off at once and got a sponge and soaked it in sour wine and put it on the end of a stick and held it up to him to drink.

But Jesus cried out again loudly, and gave up his spirit.

And Jesus himself met them, and said, "Good morning!" And they went up to him and clasped his feet, and bowed to the ground before him.

And Jesus came up to them and said, "Full authority in heaven and on the earth has been given to me.

And just as he was coming up out of the water he saw the heavens torn open and the Spirit coming down like a dove to enter into him,

And they were all so amazed that they discussed it with one another, and said, "What does this mean? It is a new teaching! He gives orders with authority even to the foul spirits, and they obey him!"

And he went up to her, and grasping her hand, he made her rise. And the fever left her, and she waited on them.

Early in the morning, long before daylight, he got up and left the house and went off to a lonely spot, and prayed there.

Which is easier, to say to this paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say to him, "Get up and pick up your mat and walk'?

"I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home!"

And he got up, and immediately picked up his mat and went out before them all, so that they were all astonished and acknowledged the power of God, saying, "We never saw anything like this before."

And as he was passing along he saw Levi, the son of Alpheus, sitting at the tollhouse, and he said to him, "Follow me." And he got up and followed him.

He said to the man with the withered hand, "Get up and come forward."

For he cured so many people that all who had any ailments pressed up to him to touch him.

And he went up the hillside and summoned to him those whom he wanted, and they went to him.

and as he was sowing, some of the seed chanced to fall by the path, and the birds came and ate it up.

Some of it fell on rocky ground, and where there was not much soil, and it sprang up at once because the soil was not deep,

but when the sun came up, it was scorched, and withered up, because it had no root.

Some of the seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it out, and it yielded no grain.

And some fell on good soil, and came up and grew and yielded thirty, sixty, even a hundredfold."

but it takes no real root in them and they last only a little while; then when trouble or persecution comes because of the message they give it up at once.

"Do people get out the lamp," he said to them, "and then put it under the peck-measure, or under the bed, instead of putting it up where it belongs?

and then sleeping at night and getting up by day, while the seed sprouts and comes up, without his knowing it.

yet once sown, comes up and grows to be the largest of all the plants, and produces branches so large that the wild birds can roost under the shelter of it."

He was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him up and said to him, "Master, does it make no difference to you that we are sinking?"

And they were very much frightened, and said to one another, "Who can he be? For even the wind and the sea obey him."

And catching sight of Jesus in the distance he ran up and made obeisance to him

And a man named Jairus, the leader of a synagogue, came up and seeing him threw himself at his feet,

had heard about Jesus. And she came up in the crowd behind him and touched his coat,

And he grasped her hand and said to her, "Taleitha, koum!"??hat is to say, "Little girl, I tell you, get up!"

And the little girl immediately got up and walked about, for she was twelve years old. The moment they saw it they were utterly amazed.

"Ask me for anything you like and I will give it to you." And he made oath to her, "I will give you whatever you ask me for, up to half my kingdom."

When it grew late his disciples came up to him and said, "This is a lonely place and it is getting late.

Then he took the five loaves and the two fish and looked up to heaven and blessed the loaves and broke them in pieces and gave them to the disciples to pass to the people; and he divided the two fish among them all.

And the pieces they gathered up filled twelve baskets, besides the pieces of the fish.

When he had taken leave of the people he went up the hill to pray.

Then he went up to them and got into the boat. And the wind fell. And they were perfectly beside themselves,

"You give up what God has commanded and hold fast to what men have handed down.

And he looked up to heaven and sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha!"??hich means "Open."

And they ate and satisfied their hunger. And the pieces that they left, that were picked up, filled seven baskets.

how many baskets of pieces you picked up when I broke the five loaves in pieces for those five thousand men?" They said to him, "Twelve."

"When I broke the seven loaves in pieces for the four thousand, how many baskets of pieces did you pick up?" They said to him, "Seven."

He looked up and said, "I can see people, for they look to me like trees, only they are moving about."

Six days after this Jesus took Peter, James, and John with him, and led them up on a high mountain, off by themselves. And his appearance underwent a change in their presence,

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."

And all the people were amazed when they saw him, and they ran up to him and greeted him.

He answered them and said, "O you unbelieving people, how long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to me!"

But Jesus grasped his hand and made him rise, and he stood up.

Some Pharisees came up, and in order to test him asked him whether a man should be allowed to divorce his wife.

They said, "Moses permits a man to divorce his wife by drawing up a written divorce-notice."

As he was starting again on his journey, a man came running up to him, and knelt at his feet and asked him, "Good master, what must I do to make sure of eternal life?"

Jesus said, "I tell you, there is no one who has given up home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or land for me and for the good news,

As they went on their way up to Jerusalem, Jesus walked ahead of them, and they were in dismay, and those who still followed were afraid. And he took the Twelve aside again and began to tell them what was going to happen to him.

"See!" he said, "we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the high priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death and hand him over to the heathen

And Zebedee's two sons, James and John, came up to him and said, "Master, we want you to do for us whatever we ask."

Jesus stopped and said, "Call him here." And they called the blind man and said to him, "Courage now! Get up, he is calling you!"

And he threw off his coat and sprang to his feet and went up to Jesus.

And he saw in the distance a fig tree covered with leaves, and he went up to it to see if he could find any figs on it. When he reached it he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for figs.

And Peter remembered about it and said to him, "Look, Master! The fig tree that you cursed is withered up!"

I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Get up and throw yourself into the sea!' and has no doubt in his mind, but has faith that what he says will happen, shall have it.

And whenever you stand up to pray, if you have a grievance against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven too may forgive you your offenses."

Then they went into Jerusalem again. And as Jesus was walking about in the Temple, the high priests, scribes, and elders came up

And they came up and said to him, "Master, we know that you tell the truth regardless of the consequences, for you are not guided by personal considerations, but teach the way of God with sincerity. Is it right to pay the poll tax to the emperor or not?

"Master," they said, "Moses made us a law that if a man's brother died, leaving a wife but no child, the man should marry the widow and raise up a family for his brother.

One of the scribes came up and heard them arguing. He saw that Jesus had answered them well, and he asked him, "Which is the first of all the commands?"

and to have the front seats in the synagogues and the best places at dinners??40 men that eat up widows' houses and to cover it up make long prayers! They will get a far heavier sentence!"

A poor widow came up and dropped in two little copper coins which make a cent.

Brother will give up brother to be put to death, and the father his child, and children will turn against their parents and have them put to death.

After singing the hymn they went out of the city and up the Mount of Olives.

and he said, "Abba!" that is, Father, "anything is possible for you! Take this cup away from me! Yet not what I please but what you do!"

Get up, let us be going. Look, here comes my betrayer!"

Just at that moment, while he was still speaking, Judas, who was one of the Twelve, came up, and with him a crowd of men with swords and clubs, from the high priests, scribes, and elders.

So when he came he went straight up to Jesus and said, "Master!" and kissed him affectionately.

Some got up and gave false testimony against him to this effect:

Then the high priest got up and came forward into the center and asked Jesus, "Have you no answer to make? What about their evidence against you?"

While Peter was down in the courtyard, one of the high priest's maids came up,

And a crowd of people came up and started to ask him for the usual favor.

But the high priests stirred up the crowd to get him to set Barabbas free for them instead.

And they dressed him up in a purple cloak, and made a wreath of thorns and crowned him with it,

Then they crucified him, and divided up his clothes, drawing lots for them to see what each of them should have.

One man ran off and soaked a sponge in common wine, and put it on the end of a stick and held it up to him to drink, saying, "Let us see whether Elijah does come to take him down!"

who used to accompany him and wait on him when he was in Galilee??esides many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with him.

And they looked up and saw that the stone had been rolled back, for it was very large.

So the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was caught up into heaven and took his seat at God's right hand.

And the child grew up and became strong in the Spirit, and he lived in the desert until the day when he proclaimed himself to Israel.

And Joseph went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth to Judea to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he belonged to the house and family of David,

and she gave birth to her first-born son; and she wrapped him up, and laid him in a manger, for there was no room for them at the inn.

And this will prove it to you: You will find a baby wrapped up and lying in a manger."

but Mary treasured up all they had said, and pondered over it.

When their purification period under the Law of Moses was over, they took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,

She came up just at that time and gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were living in expectation of the liberation of Jerusalem.

And the child grew up and became strong and thoughtful, with God's blessing resting on him.
