Jesus called a little child to himself, and set him in the midst of them,

and said, "Most certainly I tell you, unless you turn, and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Then Peter came and said to him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?"

Jesus said to him, "I don't tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.

Then his lord called him in, and said to him, 'You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt, because you begged me.

and said, 'For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall join to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?'

He said to them, "Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.

His disciples said to him, "If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry."

But he said to them, "Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.

But Jesus said, "Allow the little children, and don't forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these."

Behold, one came to him and said, "Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?"

He said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."

He said to him, "Which ones?" Jesus said, "'You shall not murder.' 'You shall not commit adultery.' 'You shall not steal.' 'You shall not offer false testimony.'

The young man said to him, "All these things I have observed from my youth. What do I still lack?"

Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."

But when the young man heard the saying, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.

Jesus said to his disciples, "Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.

Looking at them, Jesus said, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

Jesus said to them, "Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

To them he said, 'You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.' So they went their way.

About the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle. He said to them, 'Why do you stand here all day idle?'

"They said to him, 'Because no one has hired us.' "He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard, and you will receive whatever is right.'

When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.'

As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them,

He said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand, and one on your left hand, in your Kingdom."

But Jesus answered, "You don't know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?" They said to him, "We are able."

He said to them, "You will indeed drink my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with, but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father."

But Jesus summoned them, and said, "You know that the rulers of the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

Jesus, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received their sight, and they followed him.

and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them.

The multitudes said, "This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee."

He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but you have made it a den of robbers!"

and said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" Jesus said to them, "Yes. Did you never read, 'Out of the mouth of babes and nursing babies you have perfected praise?'"

Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, "Let there be no fruit from you forever!" Immediately the fig tree withered away.

When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, "By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?"

They answered Jesus, and said, "We don't know." He also said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.

But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first, and said, 'Son, go work today in my vineyard.'

He came to the second, and said the same thing. He answered, 'I go, sir,' but he didn't go.

Which of the two did the will of his father?" They said to him, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Most certainly I tell you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering into the Kingdom of God before you.

"Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household, who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.

But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, and seize his inheritance.'

Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the Scriptures, 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the head of the corner. This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes?'

"Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren't worthy.

and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?' He was speechless.

Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.'

But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?

They said to him, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."

saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed for his brother.'

Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no seed left his wife to his brother.

Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'

saying, "What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "Of David."

He said to them, "How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet?'

saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees sat on Moses' seat.

As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?"

"Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.

The foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'

"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

"He also who got the two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents besides them.'

"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

"He also who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.

"But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.

He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

It happened, when Jesus had finished all these words, that he said to his disciples,

But they said, "Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people."

a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.

However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? Because she has done a good work for me.

and said, "What are you willing to give me, that I should deliver him to you?" They weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver.

He said, "Go into the city to a certain person, and tell him, 'The Teacher says, "My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples."'"

As they were eating, he said, "Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me."

Judas, who betrayed him, answered, "It isn't me, is it, Rabbi?" He said to him, "You said it."

As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; this is my body."

Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

Jesus said to him, "Most certainly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times."

Peter said to him, "Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you." All of the disciples also said likewise.

Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go there and pray."

Then he said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch with me."

He came to the disciples, and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What, couldn't you watch with me for one hour?

Then he came to his disciples, and said to them, "Sleep on now, and take your rest. Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

Immediately he came to Jesus, and said, "Hail, Rabbi!" and kissed him.

Jesus said to him, "Friend, why are you here?" Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.

Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place, for all those who take the sword will die by the sword.

In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, "Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you didn't arrest me.

But Peter followed him from a distance, to the court of the high priest, and entered in and sat with the officers, to see the end.

and said, "This man said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.'"

The high priest stood up, and said to him, "Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?"

Jesus said to him, "You have said it. Nevertheless, I tell you, after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of the sky."

When he had gone out onto the porch, someone else saw him, and said to those who were there, "This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth."

After a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, "Surely you are also one of them, for your speech makes you known."

Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." He went out and wept bitterly.

saying, "I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood." But they said, "What is that to us? You see to it."

The chief priests took the pieces of silver, and said, "It's not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood."

Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, "They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him upon whom a price had been set, whom some of the children of Israel priced,

Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus said to him, "So you say."

Then Pilate said to him, "Don't you hear how many things they testify against you?"

When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?"

While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him."

But the governor answered them, "Which of the two do you want me to release to you?" They said, "Barabbas!"

Pilate said to them, "What then shall I do to Jesus, who is called Christ?" They all said to him, "Let him be crucified!"
