"Father, I will that they, which thou hast given me, be with me where I am: that they may see my glory which thou hast given me. For thou lovedest me before the making of the world.

O righteous father, the very world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it, that the love wherewith thou hast loved me, be in them, and that I be in them."

That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, "Of them which thou gavest me have I not lost one."

Then said the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, "Art not thou one of this man's disciples?" He said, "I am not."

why askest thou me? Ask them which heard me, what I said unto them. Behold they can tell what I said."

When he had thus spoken, one of the ministers which stood by, smote Jesus on the face saying, "Answerest thou the high priest so?"

Jesus answered him, "If I have evil spoken, bear witness of the evil: if I have well spoken, why smitest thou me?"

Simon Peter stood and warmed himself, and they said unto him, "Art not thou also one of his disciples?" He denied it, and said, "I am not."

Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, "Art thou the King of the Jews?"

Jesus answered, "Sayest thou that of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?"

Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and high priests have delivered thee unto me. What hast thou done?"

Pilate said unto him, "Art thou a King then?" Jesus answered, "Thou sayest that I am a King. For this cause was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. And all that are of the truth hear my voice."

and went again into the judgment hall, and said unto Jesus, "Whence art thou?" But Jesus gave him none answer.

Then said Pilate unto him, "Speakest thou not unto me? Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to loose thee?"

Jesus answered, "Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given unto thee from above. Therefore he that delivered me unto thee, is more in sin."

And from thenceforth sought Pilate means to loose him: but the Jews cried, saying, "If thou let him go, thou art not Caesar's friend. For whosoever maketh himself a King, is against Caesar."

And they said unto her, "Woman why weepest thou?" She said unto them, "For they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him."

Jesus said unto her, "Woman why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou?" She, supposing that he had been the gardener, said unto him, "Sir if thou have borne him hence tell me where thou hast laid him, that I may fetch him."

Jesus said unto him, "Thomas, because thou hast seen me, therefore hast thou believest: Happy are they that have not seen, and yet believe."

Jesus said unto them, "Come and dine." And none of the disciples durst ask him, "What art thou?" For they knew that it was the Lord.

When they had dined, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon the son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these?" He said unto him, "Yea Lord, thou knowest, that I love thee." He said unto him, "Feed my lambs."

He said to him again the second time, "Simon the son of Jonas, lovest thou me?" He said unto him, "Yea Lord thou knowest that I love thee." He said unto him, "Feed my sheep."

He said unto him the third time, "Simon the son of Jonas, lovest thou me?" And Peter sorrowed because he said to him the third time, "Lovest thou me," and said unto him, "Lord, thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I love thee." Jesus said unto him, "Feed my sheep.

Verily, verily I say unto thee, when thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou art old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and lead thee whither thou wouldest not."

Jesus said unto him, "If I will have him to tarry till I come, what is that to thee? Follow thou me."

When they were come together, they asked of him, saying, "Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?"

And they prayed, saying, "Thou Lord which knowest the hearts of all men, show whether thou hast chosen of these two,

because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt suffer thine holy to see corruption.

Thou hast showed me the ways of life; and shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.'

And when they heard that, they lifted up their voices to God with one accord and said, "Lord, thou art God which hast made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is,

For of a truth, against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod and also Pontius Pilate with the gentiles, and the people of Israel, gathered themselves together:

So that thou stretch forth thine hand, that healing, and signs, and wonders be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus."

Then said Peter, "Ananias how is it that Satan hath filled thine heart, that thou shouldest lie unto the holy ghost, and keep away part of the price of the livelihood:

Pertained it not unto thee only? And after it was sold, was not the price in thine own power? How is it that thou hast conceived this thing in thine heart? Thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God."

What, wilt thou kill me, as thou didst the Egyptian yesterday?'

Then said the Lord to him, 'Put off thy shoes from thy feet, for the place where thou standest is holy ground.

Then said Peter unto him, "Thy money perish with thee, because thou wenest that the gift of God may be obtained with money.

Thou hast neither part nor fellowship in this business. For thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

For I perceive that thou art full of bitter gall, and wrapped in iniquity."

And Philip ran to him, and heard him read Isaiah the prophet, and said, "Understandest thou what thou readest?"

Philip said unto him, "If thou believe with all thine heart, thou mayest." He answered, and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God."

And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?"

And he said, "What art thou, Lord?" And the Lord said, "I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it shall be hard for thee to kick against the prick."

And he, both trembling and astonished, said, "Lord what wilt thou have me to do?" And the Lord said unto him, "Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou shalt do."

Ananias went his way and entered into the house and put his hands on him and said, "Brother Saul, the Lord that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight and be filled with the holy ghost."

He lodgeth with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the seaside. He shall tell thee, what thou oughtest to do."

And the voice spake unto him again the second time, "What God hath cleansed that make thou not common."

Then sent I for thee immediately, and thou hast well done for to come. Now are we all here, present before God to hear all things that are commanded unto thee of God."

"Thou wentest into men uncircumcised, and atest with them."

But the voice answered me again from heaven, 'Count not thou those things common, which God hath cleansed.'

he shall tell thee words, whereby both thou and all thine house shall be saved.'

And they said unto her, "Thou art mad." And she bare them down that it was even so. Then said they, "It is his angel."

"O full of all subtlety and deceitfulness, and child of the devil, and the enemy of all righteousness: thou ceasest not to pervert the straight ways of the Lord.

And now behold the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind and not see the sun for a season." And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; And he went about, seeking them that should lead him by the hand.

God hath now fulfilled unto us their children, in that he raised up Jesus again, even as it is written in the second psalm, 'Thou art my son, this same day begat I thee.'

Wherefore he saith also in another place, 'Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy to see corruption.'

For so hath the Lord commanded us, 'I have made thee a light to the gentiles, that thou be salvation unto the end of the world.'"

And this did she many days. But Paul, not content, turned about and said to the spirit, "I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ that thou come out of her." And he came out the same hour.

And they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved and thy household."

And they took him, and brought him into Mars Street, saying, "May we not know what is this new doctrine whereof thou speakest?

For thou bringest strange tidings to our ears. We would know therefore what these things mean."

And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, "Thou seest brother, how many thousand Jews there are which believe, and they are all zealous over the law.

And they are informed of thee that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the gentiles to forsake Moses, and sayest that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to live after the customs.

What is it therefore? The multitude must needs come together. For they shall hear that thou art come.

Them take and purify thyself with them, and do cost on them, that they may shave their heads and all shall know that those things which they have heard concerning thee are nothing: but that thou thyself also walkest and keepest the law.

And as Paul should have been carried into the castle; He said unto the high captain, "May I speak unto thee?" Which said, "Canst thou speak Greek?

Art not thou that Egyptian which before these days, made an uproar, and led out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?"

and I fell unto the earth, and heard a voice saying unto me, 'Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?'

And I answered, 'What art thou Lord?' And he said unto me, 'I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.'

And he said unto me, 'The God of our fathers hath ordained thee before, that thou shouldest know his will, and shouldest see that which is rightful, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth:

for thou shalt be his witness unto all men of those things which thou hast seen and heard.

And now: why tarriest thou? Arise and be baptised, and wash away thy sins, in calling on the name of the Lord.'

And saw him saying unto me, 'Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy witness that thou bearest of me.'

When the centurion heard that, he went to the upper-captain, and told him saying, "What intendest thou to do? This man is a citizen of Rome."

Then the upper-captain came to him, and said, "Tell me, art thou a Roman?" He said, "Yea."

Then said Paul to him, "God shall smite thee, thou painted wall. Sittest thou and judgest me after the law: and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?"

And they that stood by said, "Revilest thou God's high priest?"

Then said Paul, "I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest. For it is written, 'Thou shalt not curse the ruler of thy people.'"

The night following God stood by him, and said, "Be of good cheer Paul: For as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness at Rome."

The high captain took him by the hand, and went apart with him out of the way, and asked him, "What hast thou to say unto me?"

And he said, "The Jews are determined to desire thee that thou wouldest bring forth Paul tomorrow into the council, as though they would enquire somewhat of him more perfectly.

The upper captain let the young man depart and charged him, "See thou tell it out to no man that thou hast showed these things to me."

Notwithstanding, that I be not tedious unto thee, I pray thee that thou wouldest hear us of thy courtesy a few words.

commanding his accusers to come unto thee: of whom thou mayest, if thou wilt enquire, know the certain of all these things where of we accuse him."

Then Paul, after that the ruler himself had beckoned unto him that he should speak, answered, "I shall with a more quiet mind answer for myself, forasmuch as I understand that thou hast been of many years a judge unto this people,

because that thou mayest know that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to pray.

And as he preached of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come; Felix trembled, and answered, "Thou hast done enough at this time: depart. When I have a convenient time, I will send for thee."

Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, "Wilt thou go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?"

Then said Paul, "I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews have I no harm done, as thou verily well knowest.

Then spake Festus with deliberation, and answered, "Thou hast appealed unto Caesar: unto Caesar shalt thou go."

Agrippa said unto Festus, "I would also hear the man myself." "Tomorrow," said he, "thou shalt hear him."

Agrippa said unto Paul, "Thou art permitted to speak for thyself." Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself,

namely because thou art expert in all customs, and questions, which are among the Jews. Wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

When we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, 'Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is hard for thee to kick against the prick.'

And I said, 'Who art thou Lord?' And he said, 'I am Jesus whom thou persecutest:

But rise and stand up on thy feet. For I have appeared unto thee for this purpose: to make thee a minister, and a witness both of those things which thou hast seen, and of those things in thee which I will appear unto thee,

As he thus answered for himself: Festus said with a loud voice, "Paul, thou art besides thyself. Much learning hath made thee mad."

King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know well thou believest."

Agrippa said unto Paul, "Somewhat thou bringest me in mind for to become Christian."
