His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.

But his lord in answer said to him, You are a bad and unready servant; if you had knowledge that I get in grain where I did not put seed, and make profits for which I have done no work,

Why, then, did you not put my money in the bank, and at my coming I would have got back what is mine with interest?

For we might have got much money for this and given it to the poor.

Truly I say to you, Wherever this good news goes out in all the world, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.

And after a song of praise to God, they went out to the Mountain of Olives.

And they were not able to get it, though a number of false witnesses came.

But later there came two who said, This man said, I am able to give the Temple of God to destruction, and to put it up again in three days.

And the high priest got up and said to him, Have you no answer? what is it which these say against you?

But Jesus said not a word. And the high priest said to him, I put you on oath, by the living God, that you will say to us if you are the Christ, the Son of God.

Then the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, He has said evil against God: what more need have we of witnesses? for now his words against God have come to your ears:

And they made a decision to get with the silver the potter's field, as a place for the dead of other countries.

Now the chief priests and those in authority got the people to make request for Barabbas, and for Jesus to be put to death.

Then the ruler's armed men took Jesus into the open square, and got all their band together.

You who would give the Temple to destruction and put it up again in three days, get yourself free: if you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.

He put his faith in God; let God be his saviour now, if he will have him; for he said, I am the Son of God.

And about the ninth hour Jesus gave a loud cry, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why are you turned away from me?

Now the captain and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earth-shock and the things which were done, were in great fear and said, Truly this was a son of God.

And put it in the resting-place which had been cut out of the rock for himself; and after rolling a great stone to the door of it he went away.

The first words of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

And he said to them all, There is one coming after me who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.

Now after John had been put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the good news of God,

And saying, The time has come, and the kingdom of God is near: let your hearts be turned from sin and have faith in the good news.

Saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I see well who you are, the Holy One of God.

And Jesus said to him sharply, Be quiet, and come out of him.

And in the morning, a long time before daylight, he got up and went out to a quiet place, and there he gave himself up to prayer.

And when they were unable to get near him because of all the people, they got the roof uncovered where he was: and when it was broken up, they let down the bed on which the man was.

Why does this man say such things? he has no respect for God: from whom does forgiveness come but from God only?

Which is the simpler, to say to a man who is ill, You have forgiveness for your sins, or, Get up, take up your bed, and go?

I say to you, Get up, take up your bed, and go to your house.

And he got up, and straight away took up the bed and went out before them all, so that they were all full of wonder, and gave glory to God, saying, We have never seen anything like this.

And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.

And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.

No man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat: or the new, by pulling away from the old, makes a worse hole.

How he went into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and took for food the holy bread, which only the priests may take, and gave it to those who were with him?

And he said to the man, Get up and come forward.

And he said to them, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to put to death? But they said nothing.

And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, went down before him, crying out, and saying, You are the Son of God.

And when his friends had news of it, they went out to get him, saying, He is off his head.

Whoever does God's pleasure, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

And again he was teaching by the seaside. And a very great number of people had come to him, so that he got into a boat on the sea and took his seat; and all the people were on the land by the seaside.

And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, coming up and increasing, and giving thirty, sixty, and a hundred times as much.

And he said to them, To you is given the secret of the kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are given in the form of stories;

So that seeing they may see, and it will not be clear to them; and hearing it, they will not get the sense; for fear that they may be turned again to me and have forgiveness.

And these are they who were planted on the good earth; such as give ear to the word, and take it into their hearts, and give fruit, thirty and sixty and a hundred times as much.

And he said to them, Take care what you give ear to: in the same measure as you give you will get, and more will be given to you.

And he said, Such is the kingdom of God, as if a man put seed in the earth,

And went to sleep and got up, night and day, and the seed came to growth, though he had no idea how.

But when the grain is ready, he quickly sends men to get it cut, because the time for cutting has come.

And he said, What picture may we give of the kingdom of God, or with what story may we make it clear?

And when he had got out of the boat, straight away there came to him from the place of the dead a man with an unclean spirit.

Because he had frequently been prisoned in chains and iron bands, and the chains had been parted and the bands broken by him: and no man was strong enough to make him quiet.

And crying out with a loud voice he said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God's name, do not be cruel to me.

And taking her by the hand, he said to her, Talitha cumi, which is, My child, I say to you, Get up.

And the young girl got up straight away, and was walking about; she being twelve years old. And they were overcome with wonder.

And when the Sabbath day had come, he was teaching in the Synagogue; and a number of people hearing him were surprised, saying, From where did this man get these things? and, What is the wisdom given to this man, and what are these works of power done by his hands?

And he said to them, Come away by yourselves to a quiet place, and take a rest for a time. Because there were a great number coming and going, and they had no time even for food.

And the people saw them going, and a number of them, having knowledge who they were, went running there together on foot from all the towns, and got there before them.

And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.

Send them away, so that they may go into the country and small towns round about, and get some food for themselves.

But he said to them in answer, Give them food yourselves. And they said to him, Are we to go and get bread for two hundred pence, and give it to them?

And straight away he made his disciples get into the boat, and go before him to the other side to Beth-saida, while he himself sent the people away.

And when they had gone across, they came to Gennesaret, and got their boat to land.

And when they had got out of the boat, the people quickly had news of him,

For, turning away from the law of God, you keep the rules of men.

And he said to them, Truly you put on one side the law of God, so that you may keep the rules which have been handed down to you.

But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God,

Making the word of God of no effect by your rule, which you have given: and a number of other such things you do.

And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?

And he got into the boat with his disciples straight away, and came into the country of Dalmanutha.

And he went away from them, and again got into the boat and went across to the other side.

And they had taken no thought to get bread; and they had only one cake of bread with them in the boat.

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.

Whoever has a desire to keep his life, will have it taken from him; and whoever gives up his life because of me and the good news, will keep it.

And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There are some here who will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God come with power.

And Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tents; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

But Jesus took him by the hand, lifting him up; and he got up.

And if your hand is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off; it is better for you to go into life with one hand than to have two hands and go into hell, into the eternal fire.

And if your foot is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off: it is better for you to go into life with one foot than to have two feet and go into hell.

And if your eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out: it is better for you to go into the kingdom of God with one eye than, having two eyes, to go into hell,

Salt is good; but if the taste goes from it, how will you make it salt again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.

And he got up, and went into the country of Judaea on the other side of Jordan: and great numbers of people came together to him again; and, as was his way, he gave them teaching.

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.

And while he was going out into the way, a man came running to him, and went down on his knees, saying, Good Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

And Jesus said to him, Why do you say I am good? no one is good but one, and that is God.

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.

And Jesus, looking on him and loving him, said, There is one thing needed: go, get money for your goods, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come with me.

And Jesus, looking round about, said to his disciples, How hard it is for those who have wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

And the disciples were full of wonder at his words. But Jesus said to them again, Children, how hard it is for those who put faith in wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

It is simpler for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a man of wealth to come into the kingdom of God.

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

Jesus said, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, because of me and the good news,

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.

And some of them, turning in protest, gave him an order to be quiet: but he went on crying out all the more, Son of David, have mercy on me.

And he, putting off his coat, got up quickly, and came to Jesus.

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

And Jesus, answering, said to them, Have God's faith.

And when the time came, he sent a servant to get from the workmen some of the fruit of the garden.
