Then said Jesus to them, Have no fear: go and give word to my brothers to go into Galilee, and there they will see me.

And Jesus came to them and said, All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.

Even as it is said in the book of Isaiah the prophet, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way;

And he said to them all, There is one coming after me who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.

And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.

And Jesus said to him sharply, Be quiet, and come out of him.

And when they came up with him, they said to him, Everyone is looking for you.

And he said to them, Let us go to other parts into the nearest towns, so that I may give teaching there, because for this purpose I came.

And being moved with pity, he put out his hand, and touching him said to him, It is my pleasure; be made clean.

And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to him, Son, you have forgiveness for your sins.

And Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?

But so that you may see that the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins on earth, (he said to the man,)

And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.

And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was taking food with the tax-farmers and sinners, said to his disciples, Why does he take food and drink with such men?

And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.

And John's disciples and the Pharisees were taking no food: and they came and said to him, Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees go without food, but your disciples do not?

And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of a newly-married man go without food while he is with them? as long as they have him with them they will not go without food.

And the Pharisees said to him, Why are they doing what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?

And he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did, when he had need and was without food, he, and those who were with him?

And he said to them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath;

And he said to the man, Get up and come forward.

And he said to them, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to put to death? But they said nothing.

And looking round on them he was angry, being sad because of their hard hearts; and he said to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and his hand was made well.

And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem, said, He has Beelzebub, and, By the ruler of evil spirits he sends evil spirits out of men.

And turning to them, he said to them in the form of a story, How is it possible for Satan to put out Satan?

Because they said, He has an unclean spirit.

And a great number were seated round him; and they said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you.

And he said in answer, Who are my mother and my brothers?

And looking round at those who were seated about him, he said, See, my mother and my brothers!

And he gave them teaching about a number of things in the form of stories, and said to them in his teaching, Give ear:

And he said to them, Whoever has ears, let him give ear.

And he said to them, To you is given the secret of the kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are given in the form of stories;

And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?

And he said to them, When the light comes in, do people put it under a vessel, or under the bed, and not on its table?

And he said to them, Take care what you give ear to: in the same measure as you give you will get, and more will be given to you.

And he said, Such is the kingdom of God, as if a man put seed in the earth,

And he said, What picture may we give of the kingdom of God, or with what story may we make it clear?

And without a story he said nothing to them: but privately to his disciples he made all things clear.

And on that day, when the evening had come, he said to them, Let us go over to the other side.

And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?

And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.

And he said to them, Why are you full of fear? have you still no faith?

And their fear was great, and they said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea do his orders?

And crying out with a loud voice he said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God's name, do not be cruel to me.

For Jesus had said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.

And Jesus said, What is your name? And he made answer, My name is Legion, because there are a great number of us.

And they said to him, Send us into the pigs, so that we may go into them.

And he would not let him, but said to him, Go to your house, to your friends, and give them news of the great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you.

For she said, If I may only put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.

And straight away Jesus was conscious that power had gone out of him; and, turning to the people, he said, Who was touching my robe?

And his disciples said to him, You see the people round you on every side, and you say, Who was touching me?

And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be free from your disease.

But Jesus, giving no attention to their words, said to the ruler of the Synagogue, Have no fear, only have faith.

And when he had gone in, he said to them, Why are you making such a noise and weeping? The child is not dead, but sleeping.

And taking her by the hand, he said to her, Talitha cumi, which is, My child, I say to you, Get up.

And he gave them special orders that they were not to say anything of this; and he said that some food was to be given to her.

And Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour, but in his country, and among his relations, and in his family.

And he said that they were to take nothing for their journey, but a stick only; no bread, no bag, no money in their pockets;

And he said to them, Wherever you go into a house, make that your resting-place till you go away.

And king Herod had news of him, because his name was on the lips of all; and he said, John the Baptist has come back from the dead, and for this reason these powers are working in him.

But others said, It is Elijah. And others said, It is a prophet, even like one of the prophets.

But Herod, when he had news of it, said, John, whom I put to death, has come back from the dead.

For John said to Herod, It is wrong for you to have your brother's wife.

And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and did a dance, Herod and those who were at table with him were pleased with her; and the king said to the girl, Make a request for anything and I will give it you.

And she went out and said to her mother, What is my request to be? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

And she came in quickly to the king, and said, My desire is that you give me straight away on a plate the head of John the Baptist.

And he said to them, Come away by yourselves to a quiet place, and take a rest for a time. Because there were a great number coming and going, and they had no time even for food.

And at the end of the day, his disciples came to him and said, This place is waste land, and it is late:

But he said to them in answer, Give them food yourselves. And they said to him, Are we to go and get bread for two hundred pence, and give it to them?

And he said to them, How much bread have you? go and see. And when they had seen, they said, Five cakes of bread and two fishes.

And he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing over them; and when the cakes were broken, he gave them to the disciples to put before the people; and he made division of the two fishes among them all.

And straight away he made his disciples get into the boat, and go before him to the other side to Beth-saida, while he himself sent the people away.

For they all saw him, and were troubled. But straight away he said to them, Take heart, it is I, have no fear.

And went running through all the country round about, and took on their beds those who were ill, to where it was said that he was.

And he said, Well did Isaiah say of you, you false ones: These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

And he said to them, Truly you put on one side the law of God, so that you may keep the rules which have been handed down to you.

For Moses said, Give honour to your father and mother, and, He who says evil of father or mother, let him have the punishment of death:

And turning to the people again, he said to them, Give ear to me all of you, and let my words be clear to you:

And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,

Because it goes not into the heart but into the stomach, and goes out with the waste? He said this, making all food clean.

And he said, That which comes out of the man, that makes the man unclean.

And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.

But she said to him in answer, Yes, Lord: even the dogs under the table take the bits dropped by the children.

And he said to her, For this saying go your way; the evil spirit has gone out of your daughter.

And looking up to heaven, he took a deep breath, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be open.

In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,

And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?

And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.

And he was very sad in spirit, and said, Why is this generation looking for a sign? truly, I say to you, No sign will be given to this generation.

And he said to them, Take care to be on the watch against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.

And they said to one another, We have no bread.

And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Why are you reasoning among yourselves because you have no bread? do you still not see, and is it still not clear to you? are your hearts so hard?

When I made a division of the five cakes of bread among the five thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? They said to him, Twelve.

And when the seven among the four thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? And they said to him, Seven.

And he said to them, Is it still not clear to you?

And they came to Beth-saida. And they took a blind man to him, requesting him to put his hands on him.

And he took the blind man by the hand, and went with him out of the town; and when he had put water from his mouth on his eyes, and put his hands on him, he said, Do you see anything?

And looking up, he said, I see men; I see them like trees, walking.

And he said to them, But who do you say I am? Peter said in answer, You are the Christ.
