Then they began to beg Jesus to leave their neighborhood.

as he was embarking, the late demoniack desired, that he might be with Jesus.

Howbeit, Jesus would not suffer him but said unto him, "Go home into thine own house and to thy friends, and show them what great things the Lord hath done unto thee, and how he had compassion on thee."

And he went on his way, and made public in the country of Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him: and all men were full of wonder.

And when Jesus had gone over again in the boat to the other side, a great number of people came to him: and he was by the sea.

And a man named Jairus, a leader of a synagogue, came up, and when he saw Jesus he flung himself at His feet

And Jesus went with him; and many people followed him, and thronged him.

When she had news of the things which Jesus did, went among the people coming after him, and put her hand on his robe.

And straight away Jesus was conscious that power had gone out of him; and, turning to the people, he said, Who was touching my robe?

But Jesus looked about to see who had done it.

But the woman became afraid and trembled with fear, for she knew what had happened to her [i.e., the healing], so she came and fell down in front of Jesus and told Him the whole truth.

While Jesus was still speaking, someone came from the synagogue official's house and said [to the official], "Your daughter is dead; why are you bothering the Teacher any more?"

But Jesus, giving no attention to their words, said to the ruler of the Synagogue, Have no fear, only have faith.

Jesus allowed no one to go further with him except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.

When they came to the home of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw mass confusion. People were crying and sobbing loudly.

Taking her hand, Jesus said to her: "Taleitha, koum!"--which means 'little girl, I am speaking to you--Rise!'

But Jesus strictly ordered them not to let anyone know about this. He also told them to give her something to eat.

Jesus leaving that place, went into his own country, attended by his disciples.

And Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour, but in his country, and among his relations, and in his family.

And he wondered at the want of faith shown by the people. Jesus went round the villages, one after another, teaching.

Jesus called the twelve and began to send them out two by two. He gave them authority over the unclean spirits.

In the mean time king Herod heard of Jesus, whose name was now celebrated, and he said, John the Baptist is risen from the dead, no wonder then that he works miracles.

But when King Herod heard [about Jesus], he said, "John, whom I [had] decapitated, has risen."

And the twelve came together to Jesus; and they gave him an account of all the things they had done, and all they had been teaching.

then Jesus said to them, come, let us retire privately to some place of solitude, to repose your selves a while. for such a crowd of people were continually coming and going, that they had not even time to eat.

So, they [i.e., Jesus and His apostles] left by boat and went to a separate place [where they could be] alone.

And on leaving the ship Jesus saw a great crowd, and he was moved with compassion for them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.

Jesus replied, do you your selves give them something to eat. shall we go then, said they, to purchase bread, to the value of two hundred denarii, for them to eat?

Jesus directed them to make all the people take their seats on the green grass, in parties;

Jesus then having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, look'd up to heaven and gave thanks; then breaking the loaves, he gave them to his disciples to distribute among the people: for whom he likewise divided the two fishes.

Soon after Jesus obliged his disciples to embark for Bethsaida, on the opposite shore, while he was dismissing the people.

It was now late in the evening, and the bark in full sea, when Jesus, who was ashore all alone,

When He saw how distressed His disciples were, rowing against an opposing wind, Jesus came to them between three and six o'clock in the morning, walking on the water, and almost walked past them.

for they all saw him, and were greatly terrified. but at the instant Jesus spoke to them, and said, take courage, it is I, don't be afraid.

but they did not understand [the miracle] of the loaves because their minds were insensitive [i.e., to the nature and power of Jesus].

no sooner were they ashore, but the people, who presently perceiv'd it was Jesus,

The Pharisees, and certain Scribes from Jerusalem, came in a body to Jesus;

And they saw that some of Jesus' disciples ate their bread with unclean hands, that is, unwashed.

the Pharisees, and Scribes therefore ask'd Jesus, why don't your disciples observe the tradition of the antients? why do they take their meals without washing their hands?

Jesus answered, to such hypocrites as you may well be applied those words of the prophet Esaias, "this people honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Then Jesus having called all the people to him, said, attend every one of you, and understand.

Now when Jesus had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about the parable.

"What, do even you understand so little?" exclaimed Jesus. "Do not you see that there is nothing external to a man, which by going into a man, can 'defile' him,

Because it does not pass into his heart, but into his stomach, and is afterwards got rid of?--in saying this Jesus pronounced all food 'clean.'

Jesus leaving that place, went towards the frontiers of Tyre and Sidon; and entring into a house, desired to let nobody know it; but he could not be conceal'd.

But just then a woman whose little daughter was dominated by an evil spirit heard about Jesus and came and fell down at His feet.

But Jesus said to her, Suffer the children to be first filled; for it is not right to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs.

then said Jesus to her, for this expression, go thy way, the demon has left your daughter.

Jesus then quitting the confines of Tyre and Sidon, and passing to the confines of Decapolis, came back to the sea of Gallilee.

They brought to Him a deaf man who also had a speech difficulty, and begged Jesus to lay His hand on him.

Jesus taking him aside from the crowd, spit upon his fingers, and applied them to the ears and to the tongue of the deaf man.

and Jesus charg'd them not to mention it to any one; but the more be enjoin'd them, the more they publish'd it.

In those days when there was a very great company, and had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said unto them,

Jesus calling his disciples saith to them, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat.

Jesus told the crowd to sit down upon the ground. Then he took the seven loaves, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve out; and they served them out to the crowd.

The number [who ate] was about four thousand men [besides women and children. See Matt. 15:38]. Then Jesus sent them away.

Immediately afterwards, getting into the boat with his disciples, Jesus went to the district of Dalmanutha.

Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, asking for a sign from heaven to test him.

but Jesus fetching a deep sigh, said, why does this generation require a sign? I assure you, they shall have none.

Now Jesus' disciples had forgotten to take [any] food [with them], and had only one loaf of bread in the boat.

And Jesus ordered them, "Watch out! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!"

they said to one another, this is because we did not take bread: which Jesus perceiving,

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?

Afterwards Jesus went to Bethsaida, where they presented to him a blind man, whom they entreated Jesus to touch.

[So], He took hold of the blind man by his hand and brought him out of the village. When Jesus spit [and put His saliva] on his eyes [See 7:33 for a similar use of His saliva in healing] and placed His hands on him [for healing], He asked him, "Can you see anything?"

Again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and he saw distinctly. He was cured and could see everything clearly.

Jesus sent him home, saying, "Do not even go into the village."

And Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the little towns round Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he put a question to his disciples, saying, Who do men say that I am?

Peter answered him, "You are the Messiah!" Jesus sternly ordered them not to tell anyone about him.

Then Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and experts in the law, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

And He spoke about this freely. But Peter took Jesus aside and began rebuking Him [i.e., for saying such things].

but Jesus return'd, and looking upon his disciples, he gave Peter this rebuke, be gone, thou adversary, your views are all worldly, regardless of what is divine.

Then Jesus called the crowd, along with his disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.

And Jesus was saying to them, “Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power.”

And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and made them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves: and he was changed in form before them:

And there came before them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

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.

And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any longer, but Jesus only with themselves.

And as they were coming down from the mountain Jesus ordered His disciples not to tell anyone what they had seen until [after] the Son of man was raised again from the dead.

"How is it," they asked Jesus, "that our Teachers of the Law say that Elijah has to come first?"

Jesus answered them, "Elijah truly will come first and restore all things [i.e., to their proper perspective concerning the Messiah]. And it is [also] written [in the Scriptures] about the Son of man, that He would suffer very much and be rejected.

And immediately, upon seeing Jesus, the entire crowd ran to greet Him in great amazement [i.e., possibly over His sudden appearance].

"What are you arguing about with them?" Jesus asked.

then said Jesus, incredulous people, how long shall I be with you? must I be always assisting you? bring him before me.

Then they [i.e., some people from the crowd] brought the sick boy to Jesus, and when the spirit saw Him, it immediately caused the boy to have convulsions and to fall to the ground and roll around, foaming at the mouth.

And Jesus questioning the father said, How long has he been like this? And he said, From a child.

And Jesus said to him, If you are able! All things are possible to him who has faith.

And when Jesus saw that the people came running together, he gave orders to the unclean spirit, saying to him, You, spirit, who are the cause of his loss of voice and hearing, I say to you, come out of him, and never again go into him.

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

When Jesus got home and was by Himself, His disciples were asking Him, "Why could not we drive it out?"

Jesus answered, such a miracle is not effected but by prayer and fasting.

They went out from there and passed through Galilee. But Jesus did not want anyone to know,

Then they came to Capernaum. After Jesus was inside the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the way?"

Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said: "If any one wishes to be first, he must be last of all, and servant of all."

Then Jesus took a little child, and placed it in the middle of them. Folding it in his arms, he said to them:

Upon this occasion John address'd himself to Jesus, saying, master, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, tho' he did not belong to us, for which reason we opposed him.

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.

Jesus departed from thence, and went towards the confines of Judea, thro' the country beyond Jordan: where the people resorting to him again, he renewed his instructions to them as usual.

Some Pharisees came up to Jesus, testing Him, and began to question Him whether it was lawful for a man to divorce a wife.

"What direction did Moses give you?" replied Jesus.
