And they came to Jesus, and saw the man who had been possessed sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, the man who had had the legion; and they were afraid.

And when Jesus had crossed over again by the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered around him; and he was by the sea.

and pleaded earnestly with him, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and live."

So Jesus went with him. And a great crowd followed him and thronged around him.

And his disciples said to him, "You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, 'Who touched me?'"

And he looked around to see who had done it.

While he was still speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogue's house who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"

When they came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, he saw a tumult, and people weeping and wailing loudly.

And they laughed at him. But after he put them all outside, he took the child's father and mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.

He took her by the hand and said to her, "Talitha cumi!" which means, "Little girl, I say to you, arise."

So they went out and preached that people should repent.

For Herod himself had sent and had John arrested, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

For John had said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."

So she went out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask?" And she said, "The head of John the Baptist!"

So they went away in the boat to a lonely place by themselves.

But many saw them going, and knew them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns, and got there ahead of them.

When Jesus went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them many things.

Send them away, so they can go to the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves something to eat."

But he said to them, "How many loaves do you have? Go and see." And when they found out they said, "Five, and two fish."

So they sat down in groups, of hundreds and fifties.

When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on land.

And he saw the disciples straining at the oars, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He was about to pass by them,

but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost, and cried out;

for they all saw him, and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, "Take courage! It is I; do not be afraid."

they saw some of his disciples eating food with hands that were defiled, that is, unwashed.

But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, 'Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is Corban' (that is, a gift devoted to God),

So he said to them, "Are you also without understanding? Do you not see that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him,

since it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and so passes on?" (Thus he declared all foods clean.)

And he said to her, "Let the children first be fed, for it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

But she answered him, "Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs."

Then he departed from the region of Tyre, and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of the Decapolis.

So he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And he took the seven loaves, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; and they set them before the crowd.

And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation."

Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear? And do you not remember?

So he took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. And when he had spit on his eyes and put his hands on him, he asked him "Do you see anything?"

And he looked up and said, "I see men; but they look like trees, walking."

Then he put his hands on his eyes again and made him look up. And he was restored, and saw everything clearly.

And Jesus went on with his disciples, to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that I am?"

They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets."

And he asked them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered him, "You are the Christ."

For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it.

And he said to them, "Truly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God come with power."

For he did not know what to say, for they were greatly afraid.

Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them but Jesus only.

So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what the rising from the dead meant.

And they asked him, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.

Immediately, when they saw him, all the people were greatly amazed, and ran to him and greeted him.

And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again."

And the spirit cried out, convulsed him terribly, and came out. And the boy was like a corpse; so that many of them said, "He is dead."

John said to him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name and we forbade him, because he was not one of us."

For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to Christ, will by no means lose his reward.

"Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung round his neck and he were thrown into the sea.

and the two shall become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one flesh.

So he said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.

But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, "Let the little children come to me; and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will not enter it."

Peter began to say to him, "See, we have left everything and followed you."

Jesus said, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,

They said to him, "We are able." So Jesus said to them, "You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized;

But it shall not be so among you. But whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

So Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Take heart; rise, he is calling you."

If anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.'"

And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

So they came to Jerusalem. And Jesus entered the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

In the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots.

Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

And they reasoned among themselves, "If we say, 'From heaven,' He will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

But if we say, 'From men'"they feared the people, for all held that John was a real prophet.

So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

And he sent another, and him they killed; and so with many others, some they beat and some they killed.

So they took him and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?"

And they sought to arrest him, but feared the multitude, for they knew he had spoken the parable against them. So they left him and went away.

And they brought one. And he said to them, "Whose likeness and inscription is this?" They said to him, "Caesar's."

Jesus said to them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they were amazed at him.

Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him; and they asked him a question, saying:

"Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife, but leaves no child, the man must take the wife, and raise up children for his brother.

So the seven had her and left no children. Last of all the woman died also.

and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."

And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." And after that no one dared to ask him any question.

And Jesus said, while he taught in the temple, "How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

And he called his disciples to him, and said to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury.

And Jesus said to him, "Do you see all these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down."

And Jesus began to say to them: "Take heed that no one deceives you.

And when they bring you to trial and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand what you are to say. But say whatever is given you in that hour; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

And you will be hated by all men for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.

"When you see 'the abomination of desolation' standing where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

But take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand.

Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

So also, when you see these things happening, you know that it is near, right at the door.

Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away before all these things take place.

And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!"

And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her."

And when they heard it they were glad, and promised to give him money. So he sought an opportunity to betray him.

And wherever he enters, say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says, where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?'

So the disciples set out and went to the city, and found it just as he had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
