He awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" The wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

He said to them, "Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?"

They were greatly afraid, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,

At once Jesus gave them permission. The unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs. The herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and they were drowned in the sea.

Those who fed them fled, and told it in the city and in the country. The people came to see what it was that had happened.

They came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid.

Those who saw it declared to them how it happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs.

When Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great multitude was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.

His disciples said to him, "You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, 'Who touched me?'"

He looked around to see her who had done this thing.

While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler's house saying, "Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Teacher any more?"

He came to the synagogue ruler's house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing.

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

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

Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring John's head, and he went and beheaded him in the prison,

He said to them, "You come apart into a deserted place, and rest awhile." For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

They saw them going, and many recognized him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to him.

Jesus came out, saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.

He said to them, "How many loaves do you have? Go see." When they knew, they said, "Five, and two fish."

When evening had come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he was alone on the land.

Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea, and he would have passed by them,

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

for they all saw him, and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them, and said to them, "Cheer up! It is I! Don't be afraid."

Now when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands, they found fault.

But you say, 'If a man tells his father or his mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban, that is to say, given to God;"'

But Jesus said to her, "Let the children be filled first, for it is not appropriate 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."

Again he departed from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the region of Decapolis.

He commanded them that they should tell no one, but the more he commanded them, so much the more widely they proclaimed it.

They reasoned with one another, saying, "It's because we have no bread."

Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, "Why do you reason that it's because you have no bread? Don't you perceive yet, neither understand? Is your heart still hardened?

Having eyes, don't you see? Having ears, don't you hear? Don't you remember?

He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spit on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.

He looked up, and said, "I see men; for I see them like trees walking."

Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.

Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that I am?"

They told him, "John the Baptizer, and others say Elijah, but others: one of the prophets."

He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Christ."

He said to them, "Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the Kingdom of God come with power."

Peter answered Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let's make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

For he didn't know what to say, for they were very afraid.

Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them any more, except Jesus only.

They asked him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

Coming to the disciples, he saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning them.

Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him.

They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.

When Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again!"

Having cried out, and convulsed greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead; so much that most of them said, "He is dead."

John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone who doesn't follow us casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he doesn't follow us."

For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you are Christ's, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.

Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he was thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.

and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.

But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don't forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God."

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

When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, "Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!"

Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said to him, "Rabboni, that I may see again."

If anyone asks you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord needs him;' and immediately he will send him back here."

Seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came to see if perhaps he might find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.

For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and doesn't doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening; he shall have whatever he says.

Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions.

They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we should say, 'From heaven;' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

If we should say, 'From men'" -- they feared the people, for all held John to really be a prophet.

But those farmers said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

Shall we give, or shall we not give?" But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, "Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it."

They brought it. He said to them, "Whose is this image and inscription?" They said to him, "Caesar's."

Jesus answered them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." They marveled greatly at him.

There came to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection. They asked him, saying,

"Teacher, Moses wrote to us, 'If a man's brother dies, and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up offspring for his brother.'

When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." No one dared ask him any question after that.

Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, "How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?" The common people heard him gladly.

Jesus sat down opposite the treasury, and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.

As he went out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Teacher, see what kind of stones and what kind of buildings!"

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

When they lead you away and deliver you up, don't be anxious beforehand, or premeditate what you will say, but say whatever will be given you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

You will be hated by all men for my name's sake, but he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.

But when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains,

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

even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors.

Most certainly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things happen.

I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you didn't arrest me. But this is so that the Scriptures might be fulfilled."

"We heard him say, 'I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.'"

Even so, their testimony did not agree.

Jesus said, "I am. You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of the sky."

The maid saw him, and began again to tell those who stood by, "This is one of them."

Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" He answered, "So you say."

Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!"

But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marveled.

Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe him." Those who were crucified with him insulted him.

One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Let him be. Let's see whether Elijah comes to take him down."

When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!"

Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.

for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.

Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were amazed.

But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He goes before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he said to you.'"

So then the Lord, after he had spoken to them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
