For truly, I say to you that prophets and upright men had a desire to see the things which you see, and saw them not; and to have knowledge of the words which have come to your ears, and they had it not.

The Son of man will send out his angels, and they will take out of his kingdom everything which is a cause of error, and all those who do wrong,

When it was full, they took it up on the sands; and seated there they put the good into vessels, but the bad they put away.

Are all these things now clear to you? They say to him, Yes.

And coming into his country, he gave them teaching in their Synagogue, so that they were greatly surprised and said, Where did this man get this wisdom and these works of power?

And his sisters, are they not all with us? from where, then, has he all these things?

And they were bitter against him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour but in his country and among his family.

And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.

And his disciples came, and took up his body and put it in the earth; and they went and gave Jesus news of what had taken place.

And when evening had come, the disciples came to him, saying, This place is waste land, and the time is now past; send the people away so that they may go into the towns and get themselves food.

And they say to him, We have here but five cakes of bread and two fishes.

And they all took of the food and had enough: and they took up twelve baskets full of broken bits which were not used.

And when they saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they gave cries of fear.

And when they had got into the boat, the wind went down.

And when they had gone across, they came to land at Gennesaret.

And when the men of that place had news of him, they sent into all the country round about, and took to him all who were ill,

With the request that they might only put their hands on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.

Why do your disciples go against the teaching of the fathers? for they take food with unwashed hands.

But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.

Let them be: they are blind guides. And if a blind man is guiding a blind man, the two will go falling into a hole together.

But the things which come out of the mouth come from the heart; and they make a man unclean.

And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:

So that the people were full of wonder when they saw that those who had no voice were talking, the feeble were made strong, those whose bodies were broken had the power of walking, and the blind were able to see: and they gave glory to the God of Israel.

And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.

And Jesus says to them, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes, and some small fishes.

And they all took food, and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits, seven baskets full.

And when the disciples came to the other side they had not taken thought to get bread.

And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, We took no bread.

Then they saw that it was not the leaven of bread which he had in mind, but the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And they said, Some say, John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.

Truly I say to you, There are some of those here who will not have a taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, but Jesus only.

And when they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus gave them orders, saying, Let no man have word of what you have seen, till the Son of man has come again from the dead.

But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they had no knowledge of him, but did to him whatever they were pleased to do; the same will the Son of man undergo at their hands.

And when they came to the people, a man went down on his knees to him, saying,

And I took him to your disciples, and they were not able to make him well.

And while they were going about in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man will be given up into the hands of men;

And they will put him to death, and the third day he will come again from the dead. And they were very sad.

And when they had come to Capernaum, those who took the Temple tax came to Peter and said, Does not your master make payment of the Temple tax?

Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

So when the other servants saw what was done they were very sad, and came and gave word to their lord of what had been done.

So that they are no longer two, but one flesh. Then let not that which has been joined by God be parted by man.

They say to him, Why then did Moses give orders that a husband might give her a statement in writing and be free from her?

And he said to them, Go into the vine-garden with the others, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went to work.

They say to him, Because no man has given us work. He says to them, Go in with the rest, into the vine-garden.

And when those men came who had gone to work at the eleventh hour, they were given every man a penny.

Then those who came first had the idea that they would get more; and they, like the rest, were given a penny.

And when they got it, they made a protest against the master of the house,

See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given into the hands of the chief priests and scribes; and they will give orders for him to be put to death,

They say to him, We are able. He says to them, Truly, you will take of my cup: but to be seated at my right hand and at my left is not for me to give, but it is for those for whom my Father has made it ready.

And when it came to the ears of the ten, they were angry with the two brothers.

And when they were going out from Jericho, a great number went after him.

And two blind men seated by the wayside, when they had the news that Jesus was going by, gave a loud cry, saying, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.

And the people gave them orders to be quiet; but they went on crying even louder, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.

They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be open.

And Jesus, being moved with pity, put his fingers on their eyes: and straight away they were able to see, and went after him.

And when they were near Jerusalem, and had come to Beth-phage, to the Mountain of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,

But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the works of power which he did, and the children crying out in the Temple, Glory to the son of David, they were angry and said to him,

And when the disciples saw it they were surprised, saying, How did the fig-tree become dry in so short a time?

The baptism of John, where did it come from? from heaven or from men? And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not have faith in him?

And they made answer and said, We have no idea. Then he said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.

Which of the two did his father's pleasure? They say, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that tax-farmers and loose women are going into the kingdom of God before you.

Again, he sent other servants more in number than the first: and they did the same to them.

But after that he sent his son to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.

But when the workmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death and take his heritage.

And they took him and, driving him out of the vine-garden, put him to death.

They say to him, He will put those cruel men to a cruel death, and will let out the vine-garden to other workmen, who will give him the fruit when it is ready.

And when his stories came to the ears of the chief priests and the Pharisees, they saw that he was talking of them.

And though they had a desire to take him, they were in fear of the people, because in their eyes he was a prophet.

And sent out his servants to get in the guests to the feast: and they would not come.

But they gave no attention, and went about their business, one to his farm, another to his trade:

And those servants went out into the streets, and got together all those whom they came across, bad and good: and the feast was full of guests.

Then the Pharisees went and had a meeting to see how they might make use of his words to take him.

And they sent to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Master, we see that you are true, and that you are teaching the true way of God, and have no fear of anyone, because you have no respect for a man's position.

Let me see the tax money. And they gave him a penny.

They say to him, Caesar's. Then he said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.

And hearing it, they were full of wonder, and went away from him.

On the same day there came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no coming back from the dead: and they put a question to him, saying,

When they come back from the dead, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? because they all had her.

For when they come back from the dead there are no husbands and wives, but they are as the angels in heaven.

What is your opinion of the Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, The Son of David.

All things, then, which they give you orders to do, these do and keep: but do not take their works as your example, for they say and do not.

They make hard laws and put great weights on men's backs; but they themselves will not put a finger to them

But all their works they do so as to be seen by men: for they make wide their phylacteries, and the edges of their robes,

A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you make clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of violent behaviour and uncontrolled desire.

Then they will be cruel to you, and will put you to death: and you will be hated by all nations because of my name.

If, then, they say to you, See, he is in the waste land; go not out: See, he is in the inner rooms; put no faith in it.

And then the sign of the Son of man will be seen in heaven: and then all the nations of the earth will have sorrow, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

And he will send out his angels with a great sound of a horn, and they will get his saints together from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Because as in those days before the overflowing of the waters, they were feasting and taking wives and getting married, till the day when Noah went into the ark,

And they had no care till the waters came and took them all away; so will be the coming of the Son of man.

For the foolish, when they took their lights, took no oil with them.

Now the husband was a long time in coming, and they all went to sleep.

And while they went to get oil, the master came; and those who were ready went in with him to the feast: and the door was shut.

And before him all the nations will come together; and they will be parted one from another, as the sheep are parted from the goats by the keeper.

Then will they make answer, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food or drink, or wandering, or without clothing, or ill, or in prison, and did not take care of you?

And they made designs together to take Jesus by some trick, and put him to death.

But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear of trouble among the people.

But when the disciples saw it they were angry, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

And the disciples did as Jesus had said to them; and they made ready the Passover.
