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.

Is not this the woodworker, the son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were bitter against him.

They were to go with common shoes on their feet, and not to take two coats.

And whatever place will not take you in and will not give ear to you, when you go away, put off the dust from your feet as a witness against them.

And they went out, preaching the need for a change of heart in men.

And Herodias was bitter against him, desiring to put him to death; but she was not able;

And the king was very sad; but because of his oaths, and those who were with him at table, he would not say 'No' to her.

And seeing that they had trouble in getting their boat through the water, because the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have gone past them;

For it was not clear to them about the bread; but their hearts were hard.

Now the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not take food without washing their hands with care, keeping the old rule which has been handed down to them:

And the Pharisees and the scribes put the question to him, Why do your disciples not keep the rules of the fathers, but take their bread with unwashed hands?

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 went away from there to the country of Tyre and Sidon. And he went into a house, desiring that no man might have knowledge of it: and he was not able to keep it secret.

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.

And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.

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?

Having eyes, do you not see? and having ears, have you no hearing? and have you no memory?

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

And he sent him away to his house, saying, Do not even go into the town.

And he put them under orders not to say this of him to anyone.

But he, turning about, and seeing his disciples, said sharply to Peter, Get out of my way, Satan: for your mind is not on the things of God, but on the things of men.

Because he was not certain what to say, for they were in great fear.

And while they were coming down from the mountain, he gave them orders not to give word to any man of the things they had seen, till the Son of man had come back from the dead.

And wherever it takes him, it puts him down violently, streaming at the lips and twisted with pain; and his strength goes from him; and I made a request to your disciples to send it out, and they were not able.

But the saying was not clear to them, and they were in fear of questioning him about it.

Whoever will give honour to one such little child in my name, gives honour to me: and whoever gives honour to me, gives honour not to me, but to him who sent me.

John said to him, Master, we saw one driving out evil spirits in your name: and we said that he might not, because he is not one of us.

But Jesus said, Say not so: for there is no man who will do a great work in my name, and be able at the same time to say evil of me.

He who is not against us is for us.

Where their worm is ever living and the fire is not put out.

Let not that which has been joined together by God be parted by man.

And when Jesus saw it, he was angry, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not keep them away; for of such is the kingdom of God.

Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.

You have knowledge of what is said in the law, Do not put any one to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Do not get money by deceit, Give honour to your father and mother.

Jesus, looking on them, said, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.

Who will not get a hundred times as much now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and land--though with great troubles; and, in the world to come, eternal life.

But to be seated at my right hand or at my left is not for me to give: but it is for those for whom it has been made ready.

But it is not so among you: but whoever has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant:

For truly the Son of man did not come to have servants, but to be a servant, and to give his life for the salvation of men.

And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? say, The Lord has need of him and will send him back straight away.

And on the day after, when they had come out from Bethany, he was in need of food.

And seeing a fig-tree in the distance with leaves, he went to see if by chance it had anything on it: and when he came to it, he saw nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for the fruit.

And he said to it, Let no man take fruit from you for ever. And his disciples took note of his words.

And he would not let any man take a vessel through the Temple.

And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.

And they gave thought to it among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not have faith in him?

And they said in answer to Jesus, We have no idea. And Jesus said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.

Have you not seen this which is in the Writings: The stone which the builders put on one side, the same was made the chief stone of the building:

And when they had come, they said to him, Master, we are certain that you are true, and have no fear of anyone: you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God: Is it right to give taxes to Caesar or not?

Are we to give or not to give? But he, conscious of their false hearts, said to them, Why do you put me to the test? give me a penny, so that I may see it.

Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?

When they come back from the dead, they do not get married, but are like the angels in heaven.

But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: you are greatly in error.

And when Jesus saw that he gave a wise answer, he said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And every man after that was in fear of questioning him any more.

Because they all put in something out of what they had no need for; but she out of her need put in all she had, even all her living.

And Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? there is not one stone here resting on another which will not be overturned.

And Jesus said to them, Take care that you are not tricked by anyone.

And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end.

And when you are taken and given up to be judged, do not be troubled about what to say: but whatever is given to you in that hour, say: because it is not you who say it, but the Holy Spirit.

And let him who is on the house-top not go down, or go in, to take anything out of his house:

And let not him who is in the field go back to take his coat.

And say a prayer that it may not be in the winter.

For in those days there will be sorrow, such as there has not been from the time when God made the world till now, and will not ever be again.

And if the Lord had not made the time short, no flesh would have been kept from destruction; but because of the saints he has made the time short.

But in those days, after that time of trouble, the sun will be made dark and the moon will not give her light,

Truly, I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all these things are complete.

Heaven and earth will come to an end, but my words will not come to an end.

But of that day or that hour no one has knowledge, not even the angels in heaven, or the Son, but the Father.

Take care, keep watch with prayer: for you are not certain when the time will be.

So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning;

But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear there may be trouble among the people.

The poor you have ever with you, and whenever you have the desire you may do them good: but me you have not for ever.

But Peter said to him, Though the others may be turned away from you, I will not.

And Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you that you, today, even this night, before the cock's second cry, will say three times that you have no knowledge of me.

But he said with passion, If I have to be put to death with you, I will not be false to you. And they all said the same.

And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to you; take away this cup from me: but even so let not my pleasure, but yours be done.

And he came, and saw them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, are you sleeping? were you not able to keep watch one hour?

Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test; the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble.

I was with you every day in the Temple teaching, and you did not take me; but this is done so that the Writings may come true.

For a number gave false witness against him and their witness was not in agreement.

And even so their witness was not in agreement.

And the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, What more need have we of witnesses?

But again he said it was not so. And after a little time, again those who were near said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; for you are a Galilaean.

And they gave him wine mixed with myrrh; but he did not take it.

And he said to them, Do not be troubled: you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been put to death on the cross; he has come back from the dead; he is not here: see, the place where they put him!

He who has faith and is given baptism will get salvation; but he who has not faith will be judged.

For he will be great in the eyes of the Lord; he will not take wine or strong drink; and he will be full of the Spirit of God from his birth.

Now, see, you will be without voice or language till the day when these things come about, because you had not faith in my words, which will have effect at the right time.

And when he came out he was not able to say anything, and they saw that he had seen a vision in the Temple; and he was making signs to them without words.

For there is nothing which God is not able to do.

And they said, Not one of your relations has that name.

And in the same country there were keepers of sheep in the fields, watching over their flock by night.

And he had knowledge, through the Holy Spirit, that he would not see death till he had seen the Lord's Christ.

She had been a widow for eighty-four years); she was in the Temple at all times, worshipping with prayers and going without food, night and day.

And seeing that he was not there, they went back to Jerusalem, to make search for him.

And he said to them, Why were you looking for me? was it not clear to you that my right place was in my Father's house?

Make clear by your acts that your hearts have been changed; and do not say to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father: for I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children of Abraham.

And even now the axe is put to the root of the trees; and every tree which does not have good fruit will be cut down and put into the fire.
