Senseless ones! Did not He who made the outside make the inside also?

"Woe to you lawyers; because ye took away the Key of Knowledge; ye yourselves entered not in, and those who were entering ye hindered."

"And I say to you, my friends, be not frightened by those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do;

but I will show you Whom ye should fear; fear Him Who, after killing, has authority to cast into Hell; yea, I say to you, fear Him.

"And I say to you, every one who shall confess Me before men, him will the Son of Man confess before the angels of God;

but he who denied Me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

And every one who shall say a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven.

But He said to him, "Man, who appointed Me a judge or a divider over you?"

So is he who is laying up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."

"And who of you, by being anxious, can add one cubit to his stature?

Happy are those servants, whom their lord, when coming, shall find watching! Verily I say to you, that he will gird himself, and make them recline; and, coming near, he will serve them.

And the Lord said, "Who, then, is the faithful steward, the wise one, whom his lord will appoint over his household to give the portion of food in due season?

Happy that servant, whom his lord, when he comes, shall find so doing.

And that servant who knew his lord's will, and made not ready, nor did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes;

but he who knew not, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few. And to whomsoever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whomsoever they committed much, of him they will ask the more.

And there were some present, at that very season, who reported to Him concerning the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate mingled with their sacrifices.

Or those eighteen upon whom the tower in Siloam fell and slew them, suppose ye that they were offenders above all the men dwelling in Jerusalem?

And, behold, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and wholly unable to raise herself up.

And was it not right that this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan bound, lo, eighteen years, should have been loosed from this bond on the day of the sabbath?"

And a certain one said, "Are there few who are saved?"

And, behold, there are last who will be first, and there are first who will be last."

But I say to you, ye shall in no wise see Me, until ye shall say, 'Blessed is He Who is coming in the name of the Lord!'"

And, behold, there was before Him a certain man who had the dropsy.

and He said to them, "Who of you shall have an ass or an ox fall into a well, and he will not straight-way draw him up on a sabbath day?"

And He spake a parable to those who were bidden, when He observed how they were choosing out the first seats; saying to them,

and he who bade you and him, coming, shall say to you, 'Give place to this man;' and then you shall, with shame, begin to occupy the lowest place.

But, when you are invited, going, sit in the lowest place, that, when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, 'Friend, go up higher;' then you will have glory in the presence of all who are reclining at table with you;

because every one who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

And He said to him also who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, call not your friends, nor your brethren, nor your kindred, nor your rich neighbors; lest they also invite you in return, and a recompense be made you;

And one of those reclining with Him, hearing these things, said to Him, "happy is he who shall eat bread in the Kingdom of God!"

for I say to you, that no one of those men who have been invited shall taste of my supper."

For who of you, wishing to build a tower, does not, first, sitting down, calculate the expense, whether he has enough for its completion?

lest, perhaps, having laid a foundation, and not being able to finish it, all who behold begin to mock him,

"Or what king, going on to engage another king in war, does not, sitting down, first take counsel, whether he is able, with ten thousand, to meet him who is coming against him with twenty thousand?

"So, therefore, every one of you who does not renounce all his own goods, cannot be My disciple.

I say to you, that so there will be joy in Heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need of repentance.

But, when your son??his one who devoured your living with harlots??ame, you killed for him the fatted calf!'

And He said also to His disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and the same was accused to him as squandering his goods.

If, therefore, ye were not faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will entrust to you the true riches?

And, if ye were not faithful in that which is another's, who will give to you your own?

And He said to them, "Ye are those who justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts; because that which is exalted among men is an abomination before God.

"Every one who puts away his wife, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband, commits adultery.

And He said to His disciples, "It is impossible but that occasions of stumbling should come; but woe to him through whom they come!

But who is there of you, having a servant plowing, or tending sheep, that will say to him, having come in from the field, 'Coming straightway, recline at table;'

And, as He was entering into a certain village, there met Him ten leprous men, who stood afar off;

"In that day let him who shall be on the housetop and his goods in the house not come down to take them away: and let him who is in the field likewise not return back.

saying, "There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, nor regarded man.

And will not God avenge His elect, who are crying to Him day and night, and He is long suffering over them?

And He spake also this parable to some who had trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised the rest:

I say to you, this man went down justified to his house, rather than the other; because every one who exalts himself shall be humbled, but he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

And those hearing it said, "And who can be saved?"

And He said to them, "Verily I say to you there is no one who left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children for the sake of the Kingdom of God,

who shall not receive manifold more in this time, and in the coming age eternal life."

And he was seeking to see Jesus, Who He was; and was not able on account of the multitude; because he was small in stature.

And it came to pass, when he came back, having received the kingdom, that he commanded the servants to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they accomplished in business.

And he said to those standing by, 'Take away from him the pound, and give it to him who has the ten pounds.'

'I say to you that to every one who has shall be given; but from him who has not shall be taken away even that which he has.

But, these my enemies, who did not wish me to be king over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.'"

saying, "Blessed is the King Who is coming in the name of the Lord! Peace in Heaven, and glory in the highest!"

And, having entered into the temple, He began to cast out those who sold;

and spake, saying to Him, "Tell us by what authority Thou art doing these things, or who gave Thee this authority?"

'Every one who falls on that stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust!'

And some of the Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, coming near, asked Him,

"Beware of the scribes, who wish to walk about in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplaces, and first seats in the synagogues, and first places at feasts;

who devour the houses of widows; and, for a pretense, make long prayers. These shall receive greater condemnation."

But, behold, the hand of him who is betraying Me is with Me on the table;

because the Son of Man, indeed, is going according as it has been determined; but woe to that man through whom He is betrayed!"

And they began to inquire together among themselves, which of them it was, who was about to perpetrate this thing.

But ye are not so; but let the greater among you become as the younger, and he who leads as he who serves.

For who is greater, he who reclines at table, or he who serves? Is not he who reclines? But I am in the midst of you as One Who serveth.

But ye are they who have remained with Me in my temptations;

And He said to them, "But now let him who has a purse take it, and likewise a wallet; and let him who has not a sword sell his garment, and buy one.

While He was yet speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them; and he drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.

And Jesus said to the high priests and captains of the temple and elders, who came up against Him, "Did ye come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking Him, beating Him;

and, blindfolding Him, they were questioning Him, saying, "Prophesy who he is that smote Thee."

And, learning that He was of Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him up to Herod, who also was in Jerusalem in these days.

But they cried out again with all the multitude, saying, "Away with Him! and release to us Barabbas!"??19 one who, indeed, because of a certain insurrection made in the city, and of murder, was cast into prison.

and he released him who, because of insurrection and murder, had been cast into prison, for whom they were asking; but he delivered up Jesus to their will.

And there was following Him a great multitude of people, and of women, who bewailed and lamented Him

And all those acquainted with Him stood afar off, and the women who followed with Him from Galilee, seeing these things.

And, behold, a man, Joseph by name, who was a councillor, a good and righteous man

(the same had not consented to their plan and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was waiting for the Kingdom of God:

And the women who had accompanied Him out of Galilee, following after, beheld the tomb, and how His body was laid.

And He said to them, "What things?" And they said to Him, "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a Prophet, mighty in deed and word, before God and all the people:

But we were hoping that it was He Who was about to redeem Israel; yea, indeed, and besides all these things, it is now the third day since these things came to pass.

and, not finding His body, they came, saying that they had seen a vision of angels, who said that He was alive!

He came to His own possessions, and those who were His own received Him not.

who were born, not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

John testifies concerning Him, and has cried, saying, "This was He of Whom I said, 'He That cometh after me hath become before me, because He was before me;'"

No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, Who is in the bosom of the Father, He declared Him.

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent forth priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, "Who are you?"

They said therefore, to him, "Who are you? that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say concerning yourself?"

John answered them, saying, "I immerse in water: in your midst standeth One Whom ye know not??27 the One coming after me, the latchet of Whose sandal I am not worthy to unloose."

On the morrow he sees Jesus coming to him, and he says, "Behold, the Lamb of God Who taketh away the sin of the world!

This is He of Whom I said, 'After me cometh a Man Who hath become before me, because He was before me.'

And I knew Him not; but He who sent me to immerse in water, He said to me, 'Upon Whomsoever you shall see the Spirit descending and abiding on Him, the Same is He Who immerseth in the Holy Spirit.'

Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard it from John, and followed Him.

Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, "We have found Him of Whom Moses in the law and the prophets wrote??esus of Nazareth, the Son of Joseph."
