And Jesus said to him, Receive your sight! Your faith has saved you.

And immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. And when they saw, all the people gave praise to God.

And he ran in front and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him. For He was to pass through that way.

And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him. And He said to him, Zaccheus! Hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.

And hurrying he came down, and received Him joyfully.

And Jesus said to him, This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.

But his citizens hated him. And they sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this one to reign over us.

And when he had received his kingdom and had returned, then it happened that he commanded these servants to be called to him; the ones to whom he had given the silver; so that he might know what each had gained by trading.

And he said to him, Well done, good servant, because you have been faithful in a least thing, have authority over ten cities.

And he said the same to him, You be over five cities.

And he said to him, I will judge you out of your own mouth, wicked servant! You knew that I was a harsh man, taking up what I had not laid down and reaping what I did not sow.

And he said to those who stood by, Take the mina from him and give it to him who has ten minas.

And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.

For I say to you that to everyone who has, more will be given. And from him who has not, even that which he has will be taken from him.

And if anyone asks you, Why are you untying it? You will say this to him, Because the Lord has need of it.

And they said, The Lord has need of him.

And they brought him to Jesus. And they threw their garments on the colt. And they set Jesus on it.

And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to Him, Teacher, rebuke your disciples.

And He taught in the temple daily. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy Him.

And they could not find what they might do, for all the people were hanging on Him, listening.

And on one of those days, as He taught the people in the temple and proclaimed the gospel, it happened that the chief priests and the scribes along with the elders came on Him.

And they spoke to Him, saying, Tell us, by what authority do you do these things? Or who is he who gave you this authority?

And they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we shall say, From Heaven, he will say, Why then did you not believe him?

And in season he sent a servant to the vinedressers, so that they should give him the fruit of the vineyard. But the vinedressers beat him and sent him away empty.

And again he sent another servant. And they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.

And again he sent a third. And they also wounded him and cast him out.

And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect him when they see him.

But when the vinedressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir! Come, let us kill him so that the inheritance may be ours.

So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?

Whoever shall fall on that Stone shall be broken, but on whomever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder."

And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him the same hour. And they feared the people, for they perceived that He had spoken this parable against them.

And they watched and sent forth spies, pretending themselves to be righteous men, so that they might seize upon a word of His, that they might deliver Him in this way to the power and authority of the governor.

And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and do not accept the person of anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

And certain of the Sadducees came, those speaking against a resurrection, that it was not to be. And they asked Him,

For He is not God of the dead, but of the living. For all live to Him.

And after that they did not dare ask Him anything.

David then calls Him Lord; how then is He his son?

And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, but when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign when these things are about to take place?

And all the people came early in the morning to Him in the temple, in order to hear Him.

And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.

And going, he talked with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them.

And they were glad and they agreed to give him silver.

And he fully consented, and he sought opportunity to betray Him to them, away from the crowd.

And they said to Him. Where do You desire that we prepare?

And He said to them, Behold, when you have entered into the city, you will meet a man bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house where he enters.

And when the hour came, He and the twelve apostles with Him reclined.

But you shall not be so: but the greater among you, let him be as the lesser, and he who governs, as one who serves.

And he said to Him, Lord, I am ready to go with You, both into prison and into death.

And He said to them, But now, he who has a purse, let him take it, and likewise his wallet. And he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.

And going out, according to His custom, He went to the Mount of Olives. And His disciples also followed Him.

And an angel appeared to Him from Heaven, strengthening Him.

And as He was yet speaking, behold a crowd! And he who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, went before them. And he drew near Jesus to kiss Him.

But Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?

And those around Him seeing what was about to occur, they said to him, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?

And Jesus answered and said, Let it go until now. And touching his ear, He healed him.

And Jesus said to the chief priests and commanders of the temple, and the elders, who had come to Him, Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and staves?

And laying hold on Him, they led Him away and brought Him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

But a certain slave-girl saw him as he sat by the fire and earnestly looked on him and said, This man was with him also.

And he denied Him, saying, Woman, I do not know Him.

And after a little while another saw him and said, You also are of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not!

And about an hour afterward, another confidently affirmed, saying, Truly this one was also with him, for he is a Galilean.

And the Lord turned and looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.

And the men who held Jesus mocked Him, beating Him.

And blindfolding Him, they struck Him on His face. And they asked Him, saying, Prophesy! Who is it who struck you?

And they spoke many other things blasphemously against Him.

And when day came, the body of elders of the people, and the chief priests and the scribes, came together. And they led Him to the sanhedrin, saying,

And rising up, all the multitude of them led Him before Pilate.

And they began to accuse Him, saying, We have found this one perverting the nation and forbidding them to give tribute to Caesar, saying himself to be a king, Christ.

And Pilate asked Him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And He answered him and said, You say it.

And knowing that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was also at Jerusalem at that time.

And seeing Jesus, Herod greatly rejoiced, for he had desired to see Him for a long time, because he had heard many things about Him. And he hoped to see some miracle done by Him.

And he questioned Him in many words, but He answered him nothing.

And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused Him.

And humiliating Him with his guardsmen, and mocking Him by putting luxurious clothing around Him, Herod sent Him again to Pilate.

Pilate said to them, You have brought this Man to me as perverting the people. And behold, having examined Him before you, I have found no fault in this Man regarding those things of which you accuse Him;

no, nor even Herod, for I sent you to him, and lo, nothing worthy of death has been done by Him.

Therefore I will chastise Him and release Him.

(For it was necessary for him to release one to them at the feast.)

But they cried, saying, Crucify! Crucify Him!

And he said to them the third time, Why? What evil has He done? I have found no cause of death in Him, therefore I will chastise Him and let Him go.

But they pressed on him, with loud voices, requesting that He might be crucified. And their voices and those of the chief priests prevailed.

And as they led Him away, they laid hold on one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country. And they laid the cross on him, that he might carry it after Jesus.

And a great multitude of people were following Him, and of women who also were bewailing and lamenting Him.

And two others, two criminals, were led with Him to be put to death.

And when they came to the place which is called Calvary, they crucified Him and the criminals there, one on the right, and one on the left.

And the people stood watching. And also the rulers with them, scoffing, saying, He saved others, let Him save Himself, if He is the Christ, the chosen of God.

And coming near, the soldiers also mocked Him, and offering Him sour wine,

And an inscription also was written over Him in letters of Greek and Latin and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

And one of the hanged criminals blasphemed Him, saying, If you are Christ, save Yourself and us.

But answering, the other rebuked him, saying, Do you not fear God, since you are in the same condemnation.

And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you, Today you shall be with Me in Paradise.

And all those known to Him stood at a distance; and the women, those accompanying Him from Galilee, were seeing these things.

And also women were following, who were accompanying Him out of Galilee, who watched the tomb, and how His body was placed.

But their eyes were held so that they could not know Him.

And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to Him, Are you only a stranger in Jerusalem and have not known the things which have occurred there in these days?

And He said to them, What things? And they said to Him, The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a man, a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to the judgment of death, and have crucified Him.

And some of those with us went to the tomb and found it even as the women had said. But they did not see Him.

But they constrained Him, saying, Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is far spent. And He went in to stay with them.

And their eyes were opened, and they knew Him. And He became invisible to them.
