He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.

For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up.

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

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

But he said, "Why? What evil has he done?" But they shouted all the louder, saying, "Let him be crucified."

Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him.

They stripped him, and put a scarlet robe on him.

They braided a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him, and mocked him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews."

They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head.

When they had mocked him, they took the robe off of him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.

As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.

They gave him wine to drink mixed with gall. When he had tasted it, he would not drink.

When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots,

and they sat and watched him there.

They set up over his head the accusation against him written, "THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS."

Then there were two robbers crucified with him, one on his right hand and one on the left.

Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads,

"He saved others, but he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.

He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, 'I am the Son of God.'"

The robbers also who were crucified with him cast on him the same reproach.

Immediately one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him a drink.

The rest said, "Let him be. Let us see whether Elijah comes to save him."

Now the centurion, and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, "Truly this was the Son of God."

Many women were there watching from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him.

Command therefore that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away, and tell the people, 'He is risen from the dead;' and the last deception will be worse than the first."

For fear of him, the guards shook, and became like dead men.

Go quickly and tell his disciples, 'He has risen from the dead, and look, he goes before you into Galilee; there you will see him.' See, I have told you."

And suddenly Jesus met them, saying, "Rejoice." They came and took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.

saying, "Say that his disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.

If this comes to the governor's ears, we will persuade him and make you free of worry."

When they saw him, they bowed down to him, but some doubted.

And all the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him, and they were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.

Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.

And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.

He was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.

And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.

And immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.

And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."

And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."

And the report of him went out immediately into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.

Now Simon's wife's mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.

At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.

And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.

And Simon and those who were with him followed after him;

and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."

And a leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, "If you want to, you can make me clean."

And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."

And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.

And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,

and said to him, "See you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."

But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.

And four people came, carrying a paralytic to him.

And when they could not come near to him for the crowd, they removed the roof above him. When they had broken it up, they let down the mat that the paralytic was lying on.

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

And as he passed by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, "Follow me." And he arose and followed him.

It happened, that he was reclining at the table in his house, and many tax collectors and sinners sat down with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.

And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, said to his disciples, "Why is it that he eats and drinks with tax collectors and sinners?"

And John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting, and they came and asked him, "Why do the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

And the Pharisees said to him, "Look, why do they do that which is not lawful on the Sabbath day?"

And he said to them, "Did you never read what David did, when he had need, and was hungry?he, and those who were with him?

How he entered into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the show bread, which is not lawful to eat except for the priests, and gave also to those who were with him?"

And They watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

And the Pharisees went out, and immediately conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A great crowd, when they heard what great things he did, came to him.

And he told his disciples that a small boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they would not press on him.

For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.

And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him, and shouted, saying, "You are the Son of God."

And he sternly warned them that they should not make him known.

And he went up into the mountain, and called to himself those whom he wanted, and they went to him.

and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

And when his family heard it, they went out to take charge of him: for they said, "He is out of his mind."

And then his brothers and his mother came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.

And a crowd was sitting around him, and they told him, "Look, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you."

And looking around at those who sat around him, he said, "Look, my mother and my brothers.

And again he began to teach by the seaside. And a great crowd was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea, and sat down. All the crowd were on the land by the sea.

And he said, "Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."

And when he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.

If any man has ears to hear, let him hear."

For whoever has, more will be given, and he who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away from him."

And leaving the crowd, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other boats were also with him.

And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion, and they woke him up, and told him, "Teacher, do you not care that we are dying?"

And they were greatly afraid, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

And when he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.

He lived in the tombs. And no one could bind him any more, not even with chains,

because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. No one had the strength to tame him.

And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,

For he said to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit."

And then he asked him, "What is your name?" He replied, "My name is Legion, for we are many."

And he begged him much that he would not send them away out of the region.

And they begged him, saying, "Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them."

They came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid.

And those who saw it declared to them how it happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs.

Then they began to beg him to depart from their region.

As he was entering into the boat, he who had been possessed by demons begged him that he might be with him.

And he did not allow him, but said to him, "Go to your house, to your own, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you."

So he went his way, and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him, and everyone marveled.

And when Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great crowd was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.

One of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet,

and pleaded with him repeatedly, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live."
