But while they were sailing he went to sleep: and a storm of wind came down on the sea, and the boat became full of water and they were in danger.

Then they came to him and, awaking him out of his sleep, said, Master, Master, destruction is near. And he, when he was awake, gave orders to the wind and the rolling waves, and the storm came to an end, and all was calm.

And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says?

And they came to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.

And they made a request to him that he would not give them an order to go away into the deep.

And when the men who took care of them saw what had come about, they went quickly and gave news of it in the town and the country.

And they went out to see what had taken place, and they came to Jesus and saw the man out of whom the evil spirits had gone, seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, at the feet of Jesus; and fear came on them.

And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes made a request to him to go away from them; for they were in great fear: and he got into a boat and went back.

And when Jesus went back, the people were glad to see him, for they were all waiting for him.

And Jesus said, Who was touching me? And when they all said, It is not I, Peter and those who were with him said, Master, the people are pushing round you on every side.

And they were laughing at him, being certain that she was dead.

And they went away, journeying through all the towns, preaching the good news and making people free from diseases in all places.

And the twelve, when they came back, gave him an account of what they had done. And he took them with him and went away from the people to a town named Beth-saida.

And the day went on; and the twelve came to him and said, Send these people away so that they may go into the towns and the country round about and get resting-places and food for themselves, for we are in a waste place.

But he said, Give them food yourselves. And they said, We have only five cakes of bread and two fishes, if we do not go and get food for all these people.

And they did so, and made them all be seated.

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 they had been broken, he gave them to the disciples to give to the people.

And they all took the food and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits which were over, twelve baskets full.

And they, answering, said, John the Baptist; but others say Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets has come back.

But truly I say to you, Some of those who are here now will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God.

Now Peter and those who were with him were overcome with sleep: but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men who were with him.

And when they were about to go away from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah: having no knowledge of what he was saying.

And while he said these things, the shade of a cloud came over them, and they were full of fear when they went into the cloud.

And after the voice was gone they saw that Jesus was by himself. And they kept quiet, and said nothing at that time to anyone of the things which they had seen.

And on the day after, when they came down from the mountain, a great band of people came to him.

And I made a request to your disciples to send it out of him, but they were not able to do it.

And they were full of wonder at the great power of God. But while they were all wondering at all the things which he did, he said to his disciples,

But this saying was not clear to them and its sense was kept secret from them so that they were not able to see it: and they had fear of questioning him about it.

And he sent men before: and they came to a small town of Samaria to make ready for him.

But they would not have him there, because he was clearly going to Jerusalem.

And when his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, Lord, may we send fire from heaven and put an end to them?

And they went to another small town.

And when they were on the way, a certain man said to him, I will come after you wherever you go.

And keep in that same house, taking what food and drink they give you: for the worker has a right to his reward. Do not go from house to house.

And into whatever town you go, if they take you in, take whatever food is given to you:

But if you go into a town where they will not have you, go out into the streets of it and say,

A curse is on you, Chorazin! A curse is on you, Beth-saida! For if such works of power had been done in Tyre and Sidon as have been done in you, they would have been turned from their sins, in days gone by, seated in the dust.

For I say to you that numbers of prophets and kings have had a desire to see the things which you see, and have not seen them, and to have knowledge of the things which have come to your ears, and they had it not.

And Jesus, answering him, said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he got into the hands of thieves, who took his clothing and gave him cruel blows, and when they went away, he was half dead.

Now, while they were on their way, he came to a certain town; and a woman named Martha took him into her house.

And I say to you, Make requests, and they will be answered; what you are searching for, you will get; when you give the sign, the door will be open to you.

Then he goes and gets seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they go in, and take their places there: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first.

But he said, More happy are they who give hearing to the word of God and keep it.

The men of Nineveh will come up in the day of judging and give their decision against this generation: for they were turned away from their sins at the preaching of Jonah; but now something greater than Jonah is here.

So you are witnesses and give approval to the work of your fathers; for they put them to death and you make their last resting-places.

For this reason the wisdom of God has said, I will send them prophets and teachers, and to some of them they will give death and cruel pains;

At that time, when thousands of the people had come together, in such numbers that they were crushing one another, he said first to his disciples, Have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees, which is deceit.

And when they take you before the Synagogues and the authorities and the rulers, take no thought about what answers you will give, or what you will say:

Give thought to the ravens; they do not put seeds into the earth, or get together grain; they have no store-houses or buildings; and God gives them their food: of how much greater value are you than the birds!

Give thought to the flowers: they do no work, they make no thread; and still I say to you, Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these.

And if he comes in the second division of the night or in the third, and they are watching for him, happy are those servants.

They will be at war, the father against his son, and the son against his father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.

For if anyone has a cause at law against you, and you are going with him before the ruler, make an attempt, on the way, to come to an agreement with him, for if you do not, he may take you before the judge and the judge will give you up to the police, and they will put you in prison.

Or those eighteen men who were crushed by the fall of the tower of Siloam, were they worse than all the other men living in Jerusalem?

And they will come from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south, and take their places in the kingdom of God.

And it came about that when he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees on the Sabbath, to have a meal, they were watching him.

But they said nothing. And he made him well and sent him away.

And they had no answer to that question.

And he gave teaching in the form of a story to the guests who came to the feast, when he saw how they took the best seats; saying to them,

And he said to the master of the house, When you give a feast, do not send for your friends and your brothers and your family or your neighbours who have wealth, for they may give a feast for you, and so you will get a reward.

And you will have a blessing, because they will not be able to give you any payment, and you will get your reward when the upright come back from the dead.

And they all gave reasons why they were not able to come. The first said to him, I have got a new field, and it is necessary for me to go and see it: I am full of regret that I am unable to come.

For this, my son, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away from me, and has come back. And they were full of joy.

I have come to a decision what to do, so that when I am put out of my position they will take me into their houses.

For I have five brothers; and let him give them an account of these things, so that they may not come to this place of pain.

But Abraham said, They have Moses and the prophets; let them give ear to what they say.

And he said to him, If they will not give attention to Moses and the prophets, they will not be moved even if someone comes back from the dead.

And he said to his disciples, It is necessary for causes of trouble to come about, but unhappy is he by whom they come.

And it came about that when they were on the way to Jerusalem he went through Samaria and Galilee.

And when he went into a certain small town he came across ten men who were lepers, and they, keeping themselves at a distance,

And when he saw them he said, Go, and let the priests see you. And, while they were going, they were made clean.

And if they say to you, See, it is there! or, It is here! do not go away, or go after them.

They were feasting and taking wives and getting married, till the day of the overflowing of the waters, when Noah went into the ark, and they all came to destruction.

In the same way, in the days of Lot; they were feasting and trading, they were planting and building;

And they, answering him, said, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there will the eagles come together.

And he made this story for some people who were certain that they were good, and had a low opinion of others:

And they took their children to him, so that he might put his hands on them: but when the disciples saw it, they said sharp words to them

But they did not take in the sense of any of these words, and what he said was not clear to them, and their minds were not able to see it.

And they said to him, Jesus of Nazareth is going by.

And straight away he was able to see, and he went after him, giving glory to God; and all the people when they saw it gave praise to God.

And when they saw it, they were all angry, saying, He has gone into the house of a sinner.

And while they were giving ear to these words, he made another story for them, because he was near Jerusalem, and because they were of the opinion that the kingdom of God was coming straight away.

And when he came back again, having got his kingdom, he gave orders for those servants to whom he had given the money to come to him, so that he might have an account of what business they had done.

And they say to him, Lord, he has ten pounds.

And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?

And they said, The Lord has need of him.

And they took him to Jesus, and they put their clothing on the ass, and Jesus got on to him.

And while he went on his way they put their clothing down on the road in front of him.

And when he came near the foot of the Mountain of Olives, all the disciples with loud voices gave praise to God with joy, because of all the great works which they had seen;

But they were not able to do anything, because the people all kept near him, being greatly interested in his words.

And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?

But if we say, Of men; we will be stoned by the people, for they are certain that John was a prophet.

And they made answer that they had no idea where it came from.

And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.

And he sent a third, and they gave him wounds and put him out.

And the lord of the garden said, What am I to do? I will send my dearly loved son; they may give respect to him.

But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.

And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?

He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.

And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.
