and Jesus called a child to him, set him in the midst of them,

Jesus answered, I tell thee not only seven: but seventy times seven.

When Jesus had finished these discourses, he departed from Galilee, and came into the confines of Judea, on the other side Jordan:

but Jesus said, let the children alone, and don't hinder them from coming to me: for of such does the gospel-kingdom consist.

he reply'd, which? Jesus said, "thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness,

Jesus said, if thou wilt be perfect, go sell your estate, give the value to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: then come and follow me.

then said Jesus to his disciples, I declare unto you, it will be difficult for a rich man to enter into the gospel kingdom.

but Jesus looking at them, said, however impracticable this is to men, all things are possible to God.

Jesus reply'd, I declare unto you, that in the new age, when the son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye that have followed me shall likewise sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

As Jesus was on the way to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples in private, and said to them,

but Jesus answered them, ye know not what ye ask. can ye bear to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? they said to him, we can.

but Jesus calling them to him, said, ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise arbitrary dominion over them, and they that are great exercise their authority.

and there were two blind men sitting by the way-side, who hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, "have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David."

then Jesus stood still, and calling them, said, what would ye have me do for you?

Jesus then having compassion on them, touched their eyes: and immediately they had their sight, and they followed him.

When they drew nigh to Jerusalem, and were come to Bepthphage, to the mount of Olives, Jesus dispatched two disciples,

and the disciples went, and having done as Jesus commanded them,

and the crowd said, 'tis Jesus the prophet of Nazareth in Galilee.

Then Jesus entered into the temple of God, drove out all those that sold and bought in the temple, overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the stalls of those that sold doves,

and said to him, do you hear what they say? yes, said Jesus; have ye never read, "out of the mouth of babes and sucklings I will make a consort of praise?"

Jesus answered them, I declare to you, if ye have a full assurance of faith, ye shall not only be able to do this to a fig-tree, but if ye should even say to this mountain, be thou removed, and cast into the sea; it should be done.

and Jesus answered them, let me ask you one question, if ye answer me that, I shall likewise satisfy you by what authority I do these things.

so they made answer, we cannot tell. and Jesus said, neither shall I tell you, by what authority I do these things.

which of the two obey'd his father? they said, the first. Jesus reply'd, I declare to you, that the publicans and licentious people enter into the gospel kingdom before you.

Jesus reply'd, did ye never read in the scriptures, " that very stone which the builders rejected, is become the principal stone of the angle, this the Lord effected, and it is marvellous in our eyes."

And Jesus continued to speak to them in parables, and said,

but Jesus perceiving their malice, said, why, hypocrites, would you insnare me?

Jesus answered them, you are mistaken, for want of a true notion of the scriptures, and of the divine power.

Jesus said to him, "thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."

While the Pharisees were still assembled, Jesus asked them,

Then Jesus addressing himself to the people, and to his disciples,

As Jesus was going from the temple, his disciples came and desired him to take a view of the buildings.

Jesus said to them, observe this vast structure, I tell you for certain, there shall not be any part of it left standing, but it shall be all thrown into ruins.

Jesus answered them, take care not to be deceived by any one:

Now when Jesus had finished these discourses, he said to his disciples,

and consulted how to seize Jesus by surprize, and take away his life.

Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon who had been a leper,

Jesus perceiving this, said to them, why do you trouble the woman? for what she has done is out of regard to me.

Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, and said, where would you have us make the preparations for the paschal-supper?

the disciples then did as Jesus appointed, and made ready the passover.

then Judas, he who was to betray him, said, master, is it I? Jesus replied, yes.

While they were yet eating, Jesus took bread, and having given thanks, he brake it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, take, eat; this represents my body.

then said Jesus to them, I shall be the occasion of your revolting all from me this night: for it is written, "I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered."

Jesus replied, I tell you for certain, that this night before the time of cock-crowing, thou shalt abjure me thrice.

After this, Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemani, and said to the disciples, stay here, while I go there and pray.

and immediately advancing to Jesus, he said, master, I salute you, and kissed him.

Jesus said to him, friend, what are you come about? when the others advancing, seized upon Jesus, and secur'd him.

At which, one of Jesus's company laying his hand upon his sword, drew it, and striking at a servant of the high priest's, took off his ear.

but Jesus said to him, put up your sword in its place: for all that take to the sword, shall perish by the sword.

At the same time Jesus said to the company, you come to apprehend me with swords and clubs, as if in pursuit of a robber; I was every day with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not then seize upon me.

And they that had apprehended Jesus, led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the Scribes and the senators were assembled.

Now the chief priests, the senators and the whole council, endeavour'd to get false evidence against Jesus, that he might be condemn'd to die.

but Jesus made no reply. and the high priest said to him, I conjure thee by the living God, to tell us, are you the Christ the son of God?

Jesus reply'd, I am: moreover I declare to you, within a while ye shall see the son of man sitting on the right hand of God, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

In the mean time Peter was sitting without in the court: and a servant maid came to him, and said, you likewise was one of Jesus the Galilean's comrades.

and when he was going out at the porch, another maid saw him, and said to those that were by, this fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.

when Peter remembred what Jesus had said to him, "before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice." and he went out, and wept bitterly.

As soon as it was day, all the chief priests and senators of the people consulted measures against Jesus how they might put him to death.

When Jesus appear'd before the governor, the governor asked him, art thou the king of the Jews? and Jesus answer'd yes.

therefore when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, who would you have releas'd? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?

but the chief priests and senators persuaded the people to demand Barabbas, and put to death Jesus.

Pilate replied, what shall I do then with Jesus, who is called Christ? they all cried out, let him be crucified.

Then he released to them Barabbas: but he order'd Jesus to be scourged, and delivered up to be crucified.

after this the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered all the foot-guards about him.

and they set an Inscription over his head, denoting the reason of his execution, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

and about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI? that is to say, "my God! my God! why hast thou forsaken me?"

but Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and then expir'd.

now the centurion, and they that were with him, to guard Jesus, having observ'd the earthquake, and all that had happened, were under great apprehensions, and said, certainly this was the son of God.

And several women were there who look'd on at a distance, and had followed Jesus from Galilee, to assist him with their service.

In the evening a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself was Jesus's disciple,

went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus; which Pilate ordered to be delivered to him.

but the angel spoke to the woman, and said, don't be frighted, I know you are seeking Jesus, who was crucified.

as they were making the way to his disciples, Jesus himself met them, and said, I salute you. and they came, and embraced his feet, and worshipped him.

then said Jesus to them, be not afraid: go bid my brethren repair to Galilee, and there shall they see me.

In the mean time the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

and Jesus came, and said to them, all power has been given me in heaven and in earth.

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the son of God.

At that time Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan.

But after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, spreading the good news of the kingdom of the Messiah.

(for they were fishers) and Jesus said to them, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

what have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to torment us? I know thee who thou art, the holy one of God.

and Jesus threatned him, be mute, said he, and come out.

where Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, who presently acquainted Jesus with it.

Jesus then mov'd with compassion, held out his hand, and touching him, said, I will, be thou healed.

immediately Jesus sent him away, severely charging him, have a care,

but as soon as he was gone, he began freely to talk of it, and blazed it about every where, so that Jesus could not go publickly into the city any more, but stay'd in the out parts, which were not much frequented, where people came to him from every quarter.

Jesus perceiving their faith, said to the sick of the palsy, son, thy sins are forgiven.

and immediately Jesus perceiving by his spirit, that they made these secret reflections, said, why do you entertain such suggestions?

at length as Jesus sat at table in Levi's house, several publicans and loose people sat down likewise in company with Jesus, and his disciples: for a good number of them had followed him.

Jesus hearing this, said to them, they that are in health, have no need of a physician, but they that are sick: I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.

Jesus answered, can the bridemen fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

the Pharisees watched Jesus, to see if he would heal him on the sabbath-day, that so they might accuse him.

But Jesus retired with his disciples towards the sea: where a great multitude followed him from Galilee, from Judea,

whilst Jesus was at the stern, asleep on a pillow: upon which they awak'd him, crying out, master, have you so little concern to let us sink? then he rose,

and as soon as Jesus was come out of the ship, he met a demoniack, who came from among the tombs, where he haunted,

but when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and prostrated himself before him.

and crying with a loud voice, said, "what injury have I done you, Jesus, thou son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, not to torment me."

(for Jesus had said to him, "come out of the man, thou impure spirit.")

and Jesus asked him, what is thy name? my name is legion, answered he: for we are many.

and he was very importunate with Jesus not to drive them away from that country.
