Then saith Jesus to him, Return thy sword to its place; for all who take the sword shall perish by the sword.

But all this is come to pass that the scriptures of the prophets may be fulfilled. Then all the disciples left him and fled.

Now they that had seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

And Peter followed him at a distance, even to the palace of the high priest, and entering in sat with the officers to see the end.

And the chief priests and the elders and the whole sanhedrim sought false witness against Jesus, so that they might put him to death.

And the high priest standing up said to him, Answerest thou nothing? What do these witness against thee?

But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answering said to him, I adjure thee by the living God that thou tell us if thou art the Christ the Son of God.

Jesus says to him, Thou hast said. Moreover, I say to you, From henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

Then they spit in his face, and buffeted him, and some struck him with the palms of their hand,

But Peter sat without in the palace-court; and a maid came to him, saying, And thou wast with Jesus the Galilaean.

And when he had gone out into the entrance, another maid saw him, and says to those there, This man also was with Jesus the Nazaraean.

And after a little, those who stood there, coming to him, said to Peter, Truly thou too art of them, for also thy speech makes thee manifest.

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said to him, Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went forth without, and wept bitterly.

And when it was morning all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus so that they might put him to death.

And having bound him they led him away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.

Then Judas, who delivered him up, seeing that he had been condemned, filled with remorse, returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders,

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremias the prophet, saying, And I took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was set a price on, whom they who were of the sons of Israel had set a price on,

But Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor questioned him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou sayest.

Then says Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?

And he answered him not so much as one word, so that the governor wondered exceedingly.

For he knew that they had delivered him up through envy.

But, as he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man; for I have suffered to-day many things in a dream because of him.

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

And the governor said, What evil then has he done? But they cried more than ever, saying, Let him be crucified.

Then he released to them Barabbas; but Jesus, having scourged him, he delivered up that he might be crucified.

Then the soldiers of the governor, having taken Jesus with them to the praetorium, gathered against him the whole band,

and having taken off his garment, put on him a scarlet cloak;

and having woven a crown out of thorns, they put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and, bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

And having spit upon him, they took the reed and beat him on his head.

And when they had mocked him, they took the cloak off him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him away to crucify.

And as they went forth they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to go with them that he might bear his cross.

they gave to him to drink vinegar mingled with gall; and having tasted it, he would not drink.

And having crucified him, they parted his clothes amongst themselves, casting lots.

And sitting down, they kept guard over him there.

Then are crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand and one on the left.

But the passers-by reviled him, shaking their heads

He saved others, himself he cannot save. He is King of Israel: let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe on him.

He trusted upon God; let him save him now if he will have him. For he said, I am Son of God.

And the robbers also who had been crucified with him cast the same reproaches on him.

And immediately one of them running and getting a sponge, having filled it with vinegar and fixed it on a reed, gave him to drink.

But the rest said, Let be; let us see if Elias comes to save him.

But the centurion, and they who were with him on guard over Jesus, seeing the earthquake and the things that took place, feared greatly, saying, Truly this man was Son of God.

And there were there many women beholding from afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee ministering to him,

Command therefore that the sepulchre be secured until the third day, lest his disciples should come and steal him away, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first.

And for fear of him the guards trembled and became as dead men.

And go quickly and say to his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and behold, he goes before you into Galilee, there shall ye see him. Behold, I have told you.

And as they went to bring his disciples word, behold also, Jesus met them, saying, Hail! And they coming up took him by the feet, and did him homage.

saying, Say that his disciples coming by night stole him while we were sleeping.

And if this should come to the hearing of the governor, we will persuade him, and save you from all anxiety.

And when they saw him, they did homage to him: but some doubted.

And there went out to him all the district of Judaea, and all they of Jerusalem, and were baptised by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

And straightway going up from the water, he saw the heavens parting asunder, and the Spirit, as a dove, descending upon him.

And immediately the Spirit drives him out into the wilderness.

And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.

and straightway leaving their trawl-nets they followed him.

and straightway he called them; and leaving their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, they went away after him.

And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace and come out of him.

And the unclean spirit, having torn him, and uttered a cry with a loud voice, came out of him.

And all were amazed, so that they questioned together among themselves, saying, What is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.

And the mother-in-law of Simon lay in a fever. And straightway they speak to him about her.

But evening being come, when the sun had gone down, they brought to him all that were suffering, and those possessed by demons;

And he healed many suffering from various diseases; and he cast out many demons, and did not suffer the demons to speak because they knew him.

And Simon and those with him went after him:

and having found him, they say to him, All seek thee.

And there comes to him a leper, beseeching him, and falling on his knees to him, and saying to him, If thou wilt thou canst cleanse me.

But Jesus, moved with compassion, having stretched out his hand, touched him, and says to him, I will, be thou cleansed.

And as he spoke straightway the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.

And having sharply charged him, he straightway sent him away,

and says to him, See thou say nothing to any one, but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.

But he, having gone forth, began to proclaim it much, and to spread the matter abroad, so that he could no longer enter openly into the city, but was without in desert places, and they came to him from every side.

And there come to him men bringing a paralytic, borne by four;

and, not being able to get near to him on account of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was, and having dug it up they let down the couch on which the paralytic lay.

And he went out again by the sea, and all the crowd came to him, and he taught them.

And passing by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax-office, and says to him, Follow me. And he rose up and followed him.

And it came to pass as he lay at table in his house, that many tax-gatherers and sinners lay at table with Jesus and his disciples; for they were many, and they followed him.

And the scribes and the Pharisees, seeing him eating with sinners and tax-gatherers, said to his disciples, Why is it that he eats and drinks with tax-gatherers and sinners?

And the disciples of John and the Pharisees were fasting; and they come and say to him, Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?

And the Pharisees said to him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath what is not lawful?

And he said to them, Have ye never read what David did when he had need and hungered, he and those with him,

how he entered into the house of God, in the section of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the shew-bread, which it is not lawful unless for the priests to eat, and gave even to those that were with him?

And they watched him if he would heal him on the sabbath, that they might accuse him.

And the Pharisees going out straightway with the Herodians took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.

And Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea; and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,

and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea and beyond the Jordan; and they of around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, having heard what things he did, came to him.

And he spoke to his disciples, in order that a little ship should wait upon him on account of the crowd, that they might not press upon him.

For he healed many, so that they beset him that they might touch him, as many as had plagues.

And the unclean spirits, when they beheld him, fell down before him, and cried saying, Thou art the Son of God.

And he rebuked them much, that they might not make him manifest.

And he goes up into the mountain, and calls whom he himself would, and they went to him.

And he appointed twelve that they might be with him, and that he might send them to preach,

and Judas Iscariote, who also delivered him up. And they come to the house.

And his relatives having heard of it went out to lay hold on him, for they said, He is out of his mind.

And having called them to him, he said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

And his brethren and his mother come, and standing without sent to him calling him.

And a crowd sat around him. And they said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek thee without.

And looking around in a circuit at those that were sitting around him, he says, Behold my mother and my brethren:

And again he began to teach by the sea. And a great crowd was gathered together to him, so that going on board ship he sat in the sea, and all the crowd were close to the sea on the land.

And he said, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.

And when he was alone, those about him with the twelve asked him as to the parables.

If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.
