And he sent forth two of his disciples, and said unto them, "Go ye into the city, and there shall a man meet you bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him.

And they began to mourn, and to say to him one by one, "Is it I?" And another said, "Is it I?"

The son of man goeth, as it is written of him: but woe be to that man, by whom the son of man is betrayed. Good were it for him, if that man had never been born."

Peter said unto him, "And though all men should be offended, yet would not I."

And Jesus said unto him, "Verily I say unto thee this day even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice."

And he took with him Peter, James, and John, and he began to wax abashed and to be in an agony.

And he went forth a little and fell down on the ground and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

And he returned and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy: neither could they wist what they might answer to him.

And immediately, while he yet spake, came Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great number of people with swords and staves from the high priests and scribes and elders.

And he that betrayed him had given them a general token, saying, "Whosoever I do kiss, he it is, take him, and lead him away warily."

And as soon as he was come, he went straightway to him, and said unto him, "Master, master," and kissed him.

And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

And they all forsook him and ran away.

And there was a certain young man that followed him clothed in linen upon the bare, and the young men caught him,

And they led Jesus away to the highest priest of all, and to him came all the high priests and the elders, and the scribes.

And Peter followed him a great way off, even into the palace of the high priest, and he was there and sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

And the high priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus, to put him to death; And they found none.

Yet many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.

And there arose certain and brought false witness against him, saying,

"We heard him say, 'I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another, made without hands.'"

And he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the highest priest asked him, and said unto him, "Art thou the Christ, the son of the blessed?"

And some began to spit at him, and to cover his face, and to beat him with their fists, and to say unto him, "Aread unto us." And the servants buffeted him on the face.

And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked on him, and said, "Was not thou also with Jesus of Nazareth?"

And he denied it, saying, "I know him not, neither know I what thou sayest." And he went out into the porch, and the cock crew.

And a damsel saw him, and again began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them.

And again the cock crew. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus said unto him. "Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice," and began to weep.

And anon in the dawning held the high priests a council with the elders and the scribes; And also the whole congregation, and bound Jesus and led him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

And Pilate asked him, "Art thou the King of the Jews?" And he answered, and said unto him, "Thou sayest it."

And the high priests accused him of many things.

Wherefore, Pilate asked him again, saying, "Answerest thou nothing? Behold how many things they lay unto thy charge."

And the people called unto him, and began to desire of him, according as he had ever done unto them.

For he knew that the high priests had delivered him of envy.

And Pilate answered again, and said unto them, "What will ye then that I do with him, whom ye call the King of the Jews?"

And they cried again, "Crucify him."

Pilate said unto them, "What evil hath he done?" And they cried the more fervently, "Crucify him."

And so Pilate, willing to content the people, loosed them Barabbas; And delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, for to be crucified.

And the soldiers led him away into the common hall, and called together the whole multitude,

and they clothed him with purple, and they plaited a crown of thorns and crowned him withal;

And began to salute him, "Hail, King of the Jews."

And they smote him on the head with a reed, and spat upon him, and kneeled down and worshipped him.

And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out, to crucify him.

And they brought him to a place named Golgotha: which is, by interpretation, the place of dead men's skulls.

And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh, but he received it not.

And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots for them, what every man should have.

And it was about the third hour, and they crucified him.

And they crucified with him two thieves: the one on the right hand, and the other on his left hand.

And they that went by, railed on him: wagging their heads, and saying, "A wretch, that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days.

Likewise also mocked him the high priests among themselves with the scribes, and said, "He saved other men, himself he cannot save.

Let Christ the King of Israel now descend from the cross, that we may see and believe." And they that were crucified with him, checked him also.

And one ran, and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave it him to drink, saying, "Let him alone, let us see whether Elijah will come and take him down."

And when the centurion which stood before him saw that he so cried and gave up the ghost, he said, "Truly this man was the son of God."

There were also women a good way off beholding him: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the little and of Joseph, and Mary Salome:

which also when he was in Galilee, followed him and ministered unto him, and many other women which came up with him to Jerusalem.

And Pilate marveled that he was already dead, and called unto him the centurion, and asked of him whether he had been any while dead.

And he bought a linen cloth, and took him down and wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb, that was hewn out of the rock. And rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

And when the Sabbath day was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary Joseph, and Salome, bought ointments, that they might come and anoint him.

And he said unto them, "Be not afraid. Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified. He is risen, he is not here. Behold the place, where they put him.

But go your way, and tell his disciples, and namely Peter, that he will go before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you."

And she went, and told them that were with him, as they mourned and wept.

After that he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat: and cast in their teeth their unbelief, and hardness of heart: because they believed not them which had seen him after his resurrection.

And there appeared unto him, an angel of the Lord, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

And when Zacharias saw him, he was abashed, and fear came on him.

And the angel said unto him, "Fear not Zacharias, for thy prayer is heard: And thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John:

And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the unbelievers to the wisdom of the just men: to make the people ready for the Lord."

And the angel answered, and said unto him, "I am Gabriel that stand in the presence of God, and am sent to speak unto thee: and to show thee these glad tidings.

When she saw him, she was abashed at his saying: and cast in her mind what manner of salutation that should be.

He shall be great, and shall be called the son of the highest. And the Lord God shall give unto him the seat of his father David:

And his mercy is always on them that fear him, throughout all generations.

And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.

and all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner child shall this be? And the hand of the Lord was with him.

That we, delivered out of the hands of our enemies, might serve him without fear:

all the days of our life, in such holiness and righteousness that are accept before him.

And she brought forth her first begotten son. And wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them within, in the inn.

And when the time of their purification, after the law of Moses, was come they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord:

And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon. And the same man was just and feared God, and longed for the consolation of Israel, and the holy ghost was in him.

And an answer was given him of the holy ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

And he came by inspiration into the temple. And when the father and mother brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,

then took he him up in his arms and said,

And his father and mother marveled at those things, which were spoken of him:

And the same came forth that same hour, and praised the Lord, and spake of him to all that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

And the child grew and waxed strong in spirit, and was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was with him.

For they supposed he had been in the company, and therefore came a day's journey, and sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.

When they found him not, they went back again to Jerusalem, and sought him.

And it fortuned, after three days, that they found him in the temple sitting in the midst of the doctors: both hearing them, and posing them.

And all that heard him marveled at his wit and answers.

And when they saw him, they were astonished. And his mother said unto him, "Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? Behold thy father and I have sought thee, sorrowing."

Then said he to the people that were come to be baptised of him, "O generation of vipers: who hath taught you to fly away from the wrath to come?

And the people asked him, saying, "What shall we do then?"

He answered and said unto them, "He that hath two coats, let him part with him that hath none: And he that hath meat, let him do likewise."

Then came there publicans to be baptised, and said unto him, "Master, what shall we do?"

The soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, "And what shall we do?" And he said to them, "Do violence to no man: neither trouble any man wrongfully: But be content with your wages."

Then Herod the Tetrarch; when he was rebuked of him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done;

and the holy ghost came down in a bodily shape like a dove upon him; And a voice came from heaven, saying, "Thou art my dear son; In thee do I delight."

And the devil said unto him, "If thou be the son of God, command this stone that it be bread."

And Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread only, but by every word of God.'"

And the devil took him up into a high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, even in the twinkling of an eye.

And the devil said unto him, "All this power will I give thee every whit, and the glory of them: for that is delivered to me, and to whosoever I will I give it:

Jesus answered him, and said, "Hence from me, Satan. For it is written, 'Thou shalt honour the Lord thy God, and him only serve.'"

And he carried him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, "If thou be the son of God, cast thyself down from hence.

Jesus answered and said to him, "It is said, 'Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'"
