"Behold My Child whom I have chosen; My Beloved, in whom My soul is well pleased. I will put My Spirit on Him, and He shall declare judgment to the nations.

Then one who had been demon-possessed was brought to Him, blind and dumb. And He healed him, so much so that the blind and dumb one both spoke and saw.

But if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.

The one who is not with Me is against Me, and the one who does not gather with Me scatters.

And He answered and said to him who told Him, Who is My mother? And who are My brothers?

He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

But that which was sown on the stony places is this: he who hears the Word and immediately receives it with joy.

And that sown into the thorns is this: he who hears the Word; and the anxiety of this world, and the deceit of riches, choke the Word, and he becomes unfruitful.

But that sown on the good ground is this: he who hears the Word and understands; who also bears fruit and produces one truly a hundredfold; and one sixty; and one thirty.

He put out another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.

He answered and said to them, He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man;

The enemy who sowed them is the Devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

The Son of Man shall send out His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who do iniquity,

Then the righteous shall shine out like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

Then He said to them, Therefore every scribe who is instructed to the kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out things new and old out of his treasure.

And they who had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

And recognizing Him, the men of that place sent to all that neighborhood, and brought to Him all who were diseased.

Then the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying,

For God commanded, saying, "Honor your father and mother"; and, "He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him die by death."

And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

And coming into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked His disciples, saying, Who do men say Me to be, the Son of Man?

He said to them, But who do you say I am?

Truly I say to you, There are some standing here who shall not taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.

While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. And behold a voice out of the cloud which said, This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, hear Him.

And when they had come to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your master not pay the didrachmas?

He said, Yes. And when he had come into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? From their sons, or from strangers?

At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven?

But whoever shall offend one of these little ones who believes in Me, it would be better for him that an ass's millstone were hung around his neck, and he be sunk in the depth of the sea.

Woe to the world because of offenses! For it is necessary that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

Therefore the kingdom of Heaven has been compared to a certain king who desired to make an accounting with his servants.

And when he had begun to count, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.

But the same servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. And he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me what you owe.

And He answered and said to them, Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning "made them male and female",

And I say to you, Whoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is put away commits adultery.

But He said to them, Not all receive this word, except those to whom it is given.

For there are some eunuchs who were born so from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of Heaven's sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.

When His disciples heard, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?

And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration, when the Son of Man shall sit in the throne of His glory, you also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

And everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

But many who are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

For the kingdom of Heaven is like a man, a housemaster, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard.

And when they who were hired about the eleventh hour came, they each one received a denarius.

saying, These last have worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and heat of the day.

And He said to them, You shall indeed drink of My cup and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but to those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.

But Jesus called them and said, You know that the rulers of the nations exercise dominion over them, and they who are great exercise authority over them.

And the crowds who went before, and those who followed, cried out, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

And Jesus went into the temple of God and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of those who sold doves.

And when He had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him as He was teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? And who gave you this authority?

Hear another parable. There was a certain housemaster who planted a vineyard and hedged it round about, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and rented it to vinedressers, and went into a far country.

They said to Him, Bad men! He will miserably destroy them and will rent out his vineyard to other vinedressers who will give him the fruits in their seasons.

And he who falls on this Stone shall be broken, but on whomever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a marriage for his son.

And he sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they would not come.

Again he sent out other servants, saying, Tell those who are invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage.

Then he said to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy.

And the king coming in to look over the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment.

On that day the Sadducees came to Him, who say that there is no resurrection. And they asked Him,

But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant.

And whoever shall exalt himself shall be abased, and he who shall humble himself shall be exalted.

And whoever shall swear by the temple, swears by it and by Him who dwells in it.

And he who shall swear by Heaven swears by the throne of God, and by Him who sits on it.

Blind guides who strain out a gnat and swallow a camel!

Therefore you are witnesses to yourselves, that you are the sons of those who killed the prophets;

so that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Berachiah, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to her, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not!

For I say to you, You shall not see Me from now on until you say, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord."

But he who endures to the end, the same shall be kept safe.

And woe to those who are with child, and to those who give suck in those days!

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Lord has made ruler over His household, to give them food in due season?

Blessed is that servant whom his Lord shall find him doing so when He comes.

Then shall the kingdom of Heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

But the wise answered, saying, No, lest there be not enough for us and you. But rather go to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.

And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came. And they who were ready went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.

And going he who had received the five talents traded with them, and made another five talents.

And likewise he who had received two, he also gained another two.

But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the earth and hid his lord's silver.

And so he who had received five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, Lord, you delivered five talents to me. Behold, I have gained five talents above them.

He also who had received two talents came and said, Lord, you delivered two talents to me. Behold, I have gained two other talents above them.

And he who had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew that you were a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.

Therefore take the talent from him and give it to him who has ten talents.

For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will abound. But from him who has not, even that which he has shall be taken away from him.

Then the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.

And He answered and said, He who dips his hand with Me in the dish, the same shall betray Me.

The Son of Man goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.

Rise, let us be going; behold, he who is betraying Me is at hand.

And he who betrayed Him gave them a sign, saying, Whomever I shall kiss, He is the one, lay hold on Him.

And, behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and he struck a servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.

Then Jesus said to him, Put up your sword again into its place; for all who take the sword shall perish with a sword.

And they who had seized Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had assembled.

saying, Prophesy to us, Christ; who is the one who struck you?

And after a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, Surely you also are one of them, for your speech betrays you.

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, Who said to him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times. And he went out and wept bitterly.

Then he who had betrayed Him, seeing that He was condemned, sorrowing, Judas returned the thirty pieces of silver again to the chief priests and elders,

Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, "And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him who had been priced, whom they of the children of Israel valued,

Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom do you desire that I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?

Pilate said to them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ? They all said to him, Let Him be crucified.

And those who passed by blasphemed Him, shaking their heads,

And also the thieves who were crucified with Him reviled Him, saying the same.
