And at even, when the sun was down, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils,

and he healed many that were sick of divers diseases. And he cast out many devils; and suffered them not to speak, because they knew him.

And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

And when they had found him, they said unto him, "All men seek for thee."

And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeled down unto him, and said unto him, "If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean."

And Jesus had compassion on him, and put forth his hand, touched him, and said unto him, "I will, be thou clean."

And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

And he charged him and sent him away forthwith

and said unto him, "See that thou say nothing to any man, but get thee hence and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimonial unto them."

But he, as soon as he was departed, began to tell many things and to publish the deed, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places, and they came to him from every quarter.

And there came unto him, that brought one sick of the palsy, borne of four men:

and because they could not come nigh unto him for press, they uncovered the roof of the house where he was. And when they had broken it open, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

And he went out again unto the sea, and all the people resorted unto him, and he taught them.

And as Jesus passed by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sit at the receipt of custom and said unto him, "Follow me." And he arose and followed him.

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat at meat also with Jesus and his disciples. For there were many that followed him.

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, "How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?"

And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees did fast, and they therefore came and said unto him, "Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples fast not?"

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

And he said to them, "Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was a hungered both he and they that were with him?

How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the hallowed loaves, which is not lawful but for the priests only to eat: and gave also to them which were with him?"

and they watched him, to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

And the Pharisees departed, and straightway gathered a counsel, with them that belonged to Herod, against him: that they might destroy him.

And Jesus avoided with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude followed him from Galilee and from Jewry,

and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan: and they that dwelled about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude: which when they had heard what things he did, came unto him.

And he commanded his disciples, that a ship should wait on him, because of the people, lest they should throng him.

For he had healed many, insomuch that they pressed upon him, for to touch him, as many as had plagues.

And when the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him, and cried saying, "Thou art the son of God."

And he straightly charged them that they should not utter him.

And he went up into a mountain, and called unto him whom he would, and they came unto him.

And he ordained the twelve that they should be with him, and that he might send them to preach.

and Judas Iscariot, which same also betrayed him.

And when they that longed unto him heard of it, they went out to hold him. For they said, "He is too fervent."

And he called them unto him, and in similitudes said unto them, "How can Satan drive out Satan?

And then came his mother and his brethren, and stood without, and sent unto him and called him:

And the people sat about him, and said unto him, "Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek for thee without."

And he looked round about on his disciples, which sat in compass about him, and said, "Behold, my mother, and my brethren:

And he began again to teach by the seaside. And there gathered together unto him much people, so greatly that he entered in to a ship, and sat in the sea, and all the people was by the seaside on the shore:

And he said unto them, "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear."

And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked him of the similitude.

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

For unto him that hath, shall it be given: And from him that hath not, shall be taken away, even that he hath."

And they left the people, and took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other ships.

And he was in the stern asleep on a pillow. And they awoke him, and said to him, "Master, carest thou not that we perish?"

And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, "What fellow is this? For both wind and sea obey him."

And when he was come out of the ship, anon there met him out of the graves a man possessed of an unclean spirit,

which had his abiding among the graves. And no man could bind him: no, not with chains,

because that when he was often bound with fetters and chains, he plucked the chains asunder, and brake the fetters in pieces: Neither could any man tame him.

When he had spied Jesus afar off, he ran, and worshipped him,

For he had said unto him, "Come forth out of the man thou foul spirit."

And he asked him, "What is thy name?" and he answered him, saying, "My name is Legion, for we are many."

And he prayed him instantly, that he would not send them away out of the country.

and all the devils besought him saying, "Send us into the herd of swine, that we may enter into them."

And they came out to Jesus, and they saw him that was vexed with the fiend, and had the legion, sit: both clothed and in his right mind; and were afraid.

And they that saw it told them, how it had happened unto him that was possessed with the devil: and also of the swine.

And they began to pray him, that he would depart from their coasts.

And when he was come into the ship, he that had the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

Howbeit, Jesus would not suffer him but said unto him, "Go home into thine own house and to thy friends, and show them what great things the Lord hath done unto thee, and how he had compassion on thee."

And he departed, and began to publish in the ten cities, what great things Jesus had done unto him; and all men did marvel.

And when Jesus was come over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him, and he was nigh unto the sea.

And behold, there came unto him one of the rulers of the Synagogue, whose name was Jairus: and when he saw him, he fell down at his feet,

and besought him greatly saying, "My daughter lieth at point of death, I would thou wouldst come and lay thy hand on her, that she might be safe and live."

And he went with him, and much people followed him, and thronged him.

When she had heard of Jesus: she came into the press behind him, and touched his garment.

And Jesus immediately felt, in himself, the virtue that went out of him, and turned him round about in the press, and said, "Who touched my clothes?"

And his disciples said unto him, "Thou seest the people thrusting thee on every side, and yet askest, 'Who did touch me?'"

The woman feared and trembled, for she knew what was done within her. And she came and fell down before him and told him the truth of everything.

And he suffered no man to follow him more than Peter, and James and John the brother of James.

And they laughed him to scorn. Then he put them all out, and took the father and the mother of the maiden, and them that were with him, and entered in where the maiden lay;

And he departed thence, and came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.

And when the Sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue. And many that heard him were astonished, and said, "From whence hath he these things? And what wisdom is this that is given unto him? And such virtues that are wrought by his hands?

Is not this that carpenter: Mary's son, the brother of James, and Joseph and of Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?" And they were offended by the reason of him.

And king Herod heard of him, for his name was spread abroad; And he said, "John Baptist is risen again from death, and therefore miracles are wrought by him."

But when Herod heard of him, he said, "It is John whom I beheaded, he is risen from death again."

For Herod himself had sent forth, and had taken John, and bound him and cast him into prison for Herodias' sake, which was his brother Philip's wife. For he had married her.

Herodias laid wait for him, and would have killed him, but she could not.

For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man, and a holy, and gave him reverence; And when he heard him he did many things, and heard him gladly.

And he went and beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head in a charger and gave it to the maiden, and the maiden gave it to her mother.

And the apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.

But the people spied them when they departed: and many knew him, and they ran afoot thither out of all cities, and came thither before them; And came together unto him.

And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him saying, "This is a desert place, and now the day is far passed,

He answered and said unto them, "Give ye them to eat." And they said unto him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?"

When they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:

For they all saw him, and were afraid. And anon he talked with them, and said unto them, "Be of good cheer, it is I, be not afraid."

And as soon as they were come out of the ship, straight they knew him,

And whithersoever he entered into the towns, or cities, or villages, they laid their sick in the streets, and prayed him, that they might touch and it were but the edge of his vesture. And as many as touched him were safe.

And the Pharisees came together unto him, and divers of the scribes which came from Jerusalem.

Then asked him the Pharisees and scribes, "Why walk not thy disciples according to the traditions of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?"

For Moses said, 'Honour thy father and thy mother,' and, 'Whosoever curseth father or mother, let him die for it.'

And so ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother,

And he called all the people unto him, and said unto them, "Hearken unto me every one of you and understand:

There is nothing without a man that can defile him when it entereth into him, but those things which proceed out of him are those which defile the man.

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

And when he came into a house away from the people, his disciples asked him of the similitude,

and he said unto them, "Are ye so without understanding? Do ye not yet perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into a man, it cannot defile him,

And from thence he rose and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into a house, and would that no man should have known of him: But he could not be hid.

For a certain woman, whose daughter had a foul spirit, heard of him, and came and fell down at his feet.

The woman was a Greek out of Syrophoenicia, and she besought him that he would cast out the devil out of her daughter.

She answered and said unto him, "Even so, Master. Nevertheless, the whelps also eat under the table of the children's crumbs."

And they brought unto him one that was deaf, and stammered in his speech, and prayed him to lay his hand upon him.

And he took him aside from the people, and put his fingers in his ears, and did spit, and touched his tongue,
