Now at this time Mary arose and went in a hurry to the hill country, to a city of Judah,

Because he hath looked upon the humbling of his handmaid; for lo! from the present time, all the generations, will pronounce me happy.

So, Mary stayed with [her relative] Elizabeth for about three months [i.e., until about the time John was born. See 1:26-31], and then returned to her home.

Now it was time for Elisabeth to give birth, and she had a son.

And everyone who heard about this incident remembered it [i.e., for some time]. They were saying, "What will this child become? For the hand of the Lord was [surely] with him."

As He has spoken from all time by the lips of His holy Prophets--

Now the child continued to grow, and greatly improv'd in sense; and was in the desarts till the time, when he was to be manifested to Israel.

At that time, Cesar Augustus published an edict, to make a register of the Roman empire.

Another time when he was in one of their cities, there was a man there full of leprosy. And he, upon seeing Jesus, fell on his face and implored him. "Lord," he said, "if only you choose you can make me clean."

in the mean time his fame spread so much the more, and a vast multitude flock'd to hear him, and to be cured of their diseases,

At another time, as he was teaching, it happened that some Pharisees, and doctors of the law were sitting by, who came from the several towns of Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem: when the power of the Lord appear'd in their relief.

One time Jesus was walking through some grain fields on a Sabbath. His disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.

About that time, Jesus retired to a mountain to pray, and spent the whole night in an oratory.

Be happy at that time and jump for joy and realize that your reward in heaven will be great, for the forefathers [i.e., of your corrupt Jewish leaders] treated the prophets the same way.

So Jesus went with them. Now by this time he was not far away from the house, [and] the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy that you should come in under my roof.

One day about that time, Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them: "Let us go across the lake."

And when he was come forth upon the land, there met him a certain man out of the city, who had demons; and for a long time he had worn no clothes, and abode not in any house, but in the tombs.

For Jesus was commanding the evil spirits to be driven out of the man, because they had been controlling him for a long time. The man was continually being guarded and his hands and feet were bound with chains. [Sometimes] he broke loose from the chains and was driven into the desert by the evil spirits.

Some time after, a person nam'd Jairus, a ruler of the synagogue, came to Jesus, and upon his knees desired him to come to his house:

And after the voice was gone they saw that Jesus was by himself. And they kept quiet, and said nothing at that time to anyone of the things which they had seen.

"Let these sayings sink down into your ears. The time will come, when the son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men."

And it followed, when the time was come that he should be received up, then he set his face to go to Jerusalem:

At another time, as they were walking in the road, a man said to him, I will be your follower, wherever you go.

And you should remain in that same house [i.e., the peace-loving one], eating and drinking whatever they serve you, for the worker deserves his wages. Do not move from house to house [i.e., wasting time].

At [that] same time he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these [things] from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to young children. Yes, Father, for this was pleasing before you.

And suppose he answers from the inside, 'Don't bother me; the door is locked by this time, and my children are in bed with me. I can't get up and give you anything.'

At another time Jesus was casting out a demon, that was dumb: and as soon as the demon was gone out, the dumb man spoke: and the people wondred.

In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

For the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say at that very time."

And which of you by worrying can add one hour to his life’s span?

if then you can't effect so small a matter, why are you disquieted about a much longer time?

Sell your possessions and give [the money] to poor people; provide yourselves with money belts that do not wear out [i.e., from the constant use of carrying much money all the time, instead of investing it in others' needs]. [Then you will possess] an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief can approach, nor moth destroy.

But be certain of this, that if the master of the house had had knowledge of the time when the thief was coming, he would have been watching, and would not have let his house be broken into.

But if that slave should say {to himself}, 'My master is taking a long time to return,' and he begins to beat the male slaves and the female slaves and to eat and drink and get drunk,

The lord of that servant will come at a time when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not ready for him, and he will have him cut in two and will give him his part in the fate of those who have no faith;

For from this time, a family of five in one house will be on opposite sides, three against two and two against three.

Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?

Now at the same time some had come to tell him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

So he said to the worker who tended the vineyard, 'For three years now, I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and each time I inspect it I find none. Cut it down! Why should it continue to deplete the soil?'

And, he, answering, saith unto him - Sir! let it alone this year also, until such time as I dig about it, and throw in manure, -

and if it bears fruit, well; but if not, at a future time you shall cut it down.

From the time that the master of the house shall have risen up and shall have shut the door, and ye shall begin to stand without and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he answering shall say to you, I know you not whence ye are:

At that time, certain Pharisees came to him and said, Go away from this place, because Herod's purpose is to put you to death.

When you are invited by any one to a wedding, do not sit down in the first place, lest at some time a more honorable man than you should have been invited by him,

And he said also to him that had invited him, When you make a breakfast, or a supper, call not your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor your rich neighbors, lest they also at some time invite you in return, and a compensation be made to you.

And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.

No long time afterwards the younger son got all together and travelled to a distant country, where he wasted his money in debauchery and excess.

In the mean time his elder son was in the country. at his return, when he came near home, he heard the musick and dancing:

And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

Then he said to him, 'My child, you have been with me all the time, and all I have is yours.

But it was [only] proper that we celebrate and have a good time, for this brother of yours was dead [spiritually], but is [now] alive again; he was lost [from me] but [now] is found.'"

And another time he said to the disciples, There was a certain man of great wealth who had a servant; and it was said to him that this servant was wasting his goods.

No person can serve two masters, for he will either hate the one and love the other, or else he will cling to the one [i.e., as a close friend] and look down on the other. You cannot serve God and material things [at the same time].'"

The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

And in time the poor man came to his end, and angels took him to Abraham's breast. And the man of wealth came to his end, and was put in the earth.

But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy life-time receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

And he said to his disciples, The time will come when you will have a great desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, but you will not see it.

For as in a thunderstorm the bright light is seen from one end of the sky to the other, so will the Son of man be when his time comes.

"As it happened in the time of Noah, so shall it be in the time of the son of man.

It was so in the time of Lot; people continued to eat, drink, buy, sell, plant, and build;
