But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it.

Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.

Then they came to him and, awaking him out of his sleep, said, Master, Master, destruction is near. And he, when he was awake, gave orders to the wind and the rolling waves, and the storm came to an end, and all was calm.

And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says?

And when he saw Jesus, he gave a loud cry and went down on the earth before him and in a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Do not be cruel to me.

And Jesus said to him, What is your name? And he said, Legion; for a number of spirits had gone into him.

And Jesus said, Who was touching me? And when they all said, It is not I, Peter and those who were with him said, Master, the people are pushing round you on every side.

But Jesus said, Someone was touching me, for I had the feeling that power had gone out from me.

And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace.

But Jesus at these words said to him, Have no fear, only have faith, and she will be made well.

And all the people were weeping and crying for her; but he said, Do not be sad, for she is not dead, but sleeping.

But he, taking her hand, said to her, My child, get up.

And he said to them, Take nothing for your journey, no stick or bag or bread or money, and do not take two coats.

Now Herod the king had news of all these things: and he was in doubt, because it was said by some people that John had come back from the dead;

And Herod said, I put John to death: but who is this, of whom such stories are given to me? And he had a desire to see him.

And the twelve, when they came back, gave him an account of what they had done. And he took them with him and went away from the people to a town named Beth-saida.

And the day went on; and the twelve came to him and said, Send these people away so that they may go into the towns and the country round about and get resting-places and food for themselves, for we are in a waste place.

But he said, Give them food yourselves. And they said, We have only five cakes of bread and two fishes, if we do not go and get food for all these people.

For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them be seated in groups, about fifty to a group.

And he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing over them, and when they had been broken, he gave them to the disciples to give to the people.

And they, answering, said, John the Baptist; but others say Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets has come back.

And he said, But who do you say that I am? And Peter, answering, said, The Christ of God.

Saying, The Son of man will undergo much and be put on one side by the rulers and the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and be put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.

And he said to them all, If any man has a desire to come after me, let him give up all, and take up his cross every day, and come after me.

And about eight days after he had said these things, he took Peter and John and James with him and went up into the mountain for prayer.

And when they were about to go away from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah: having no knowledge of what he was saying.

And while he said these things, the shade of a cloud came over them, and they were full of fear when they went into the cloud.

And after the voice was gone they saw that Jesus was by himself. And they kept quiet, and said nothing at that time to anyone of the things which they had seen.

And a man from among them, crying out, said, Master, I make a request to you, give a thought to my son, for he is my only child:

And Jesus said, O generation without faith and false in heart, how long will I have to be with you and put up with you? let your son come here.

And they were full of wonder at the great power of God. But while they were all wondering at all the things which he did, he said to his disciples,

But when Jesus saw the reasoning of their hearts, he took a small child and put him by his side,

And said to them, Whoever gives honour to this child in my name, gives honour to me: and whoever gives honour to me, gives honour to him who sent me: for whoever is least among you all, that man is great.

And John, answering, said, Master, we saw a man driving out evil spirits in your name, and we did not let him do it, because he was not one of us.

But Jesus said to him, Let him do it, for he who is not against you is for you.

And when his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, Lord, may we send fire from heaven and put an end to them?

But turning round he said sharp words to them.

And when they were on the way, a certain man said to him, I will come after you wherever you go.

And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes and the birds of the air have resting-places, but the Son of man has nowhere to put his head.

And he said to another, Come after me. But he said, Lord, let me first go and give the last honours to my father.

But he said to him, Let the dead take care of their dead; it is for you to go and give news of the kingdom of God.

And another man said, I will come with you, Lord, but first let me say a last good-day to those who are at my house.

But Jesus said, No man, having put his hand to the plough and looking back, is good enough for the kingdom of God.

And he said to them, There is much grain ready to be cut, but not enough workers: so make prayer to the Lord of the grain-fields that he will send workers to get in the grain.

A curse is on you, Chorazin! A curse is on you, Beth-saida! For if such works of power had been done in Tyre and Sidon as have been done in you, they would have been turned from their sins, in days gone by, seated in the dust.

And he said, I was watching for Satan, falling from heaven like a star.

In that same hour he was full of joy in the Holy Spirit and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children: for so, O Father, it was pleasing in your eyes.

And, turning to the disciples, he said privately, Happy are the eyes which see the things you see:

And he said to him, What does the law say, in your reading of it?

And he, answering, said, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and for your neighbour as for yourself.

And he said, You have given the right answer: do this and you will have life.

But he, desiring to put himself in the right, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

And Jesus, answering him, said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he got into the hands of thieves, who took his clothing and gave him cruel blows, and when they went away, he was half dead.

And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he went by on the other side.

And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.

And the day after he took two pennies and gave them to the owner of the house and said, Take care of him; and if this money is not enough, when I come again I will give you whatever more is needed.

And he said, The one who had mercy on him. And Jesus said, Go and do the same.

And she had a sister, by name Mary, who took her seat at the Lord's feet and gave attention to his words.

But Martha had her hands full of the work of the house, and she came to him and said, Lord, is it nothing to you that my sister has let me do all the work? Say to her that she is to give me some help.

But the Lord, answering, said to her, Martha, Martha, you are full of care and troubled about such a number of things:

And it came about that he was in prayer in a certain place, and when he came to an end, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, will you give us teaching about prayer, as John did to his disciples?

And he said to them, When you say your prayers, say, Father, may your name be kept holy and your kingdom come.

And he said to them, Which of you, having a friend, would go to him in the middle of the night and say to him, Friend, let me have three cakes of bread;

But some of them said, He sends out evil spirits by Beelzebul, the ruler of evil spirits.

But he, having knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom in which there is division is made waste; and a house in which there is division comes to destruction.

And it came about that when he said these things, a certain woman among the people said in a loud voice, Happy is the body which gave you birth, and the breasts from which you took milk.

But he said, More happy are they who give hearing to the word of God and keep it.

And when a great number of people came together to him, he said, This generation is an evil generation: it is looking for a sign and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah.

Now, while he was talking, a Pharisee made a request that he would come to a meal with him; and he went in and took his seat at the meal.

And the Lord said to him, You Pharisees make the outside of the cup and the plate clean; but inside you are thieves and full of evil.

A curse is on you, Pharisees! for your desires are for the most important seats in the Synagogues and for words of respect said to you in the market-place.

And one of the teachers of the law, answering, said to him, Master, in saying this, you give a bad name to us as to them.

And he said, A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for while other men are crushed under the weight of the rules you make for them, you yourselves do not put so much as one finger to them.

For this reason the wisdom of God has said, I will send them prophets and teachers, and to some of them they will give death and cruel pains;

At that time, when thousands of the people had come together, in such numbers that they were crushing one another, he said first to his disciples, Have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees, which is deceit.

So, whatever you have said in the dark, will come to men's hearing in the light, and what you have said secretly inside the house, will be made public from the house-tops.

And one of the people said to him, Master, give an order to my brother to make division of the heritage with me.

But he said, Man, who made me a judge or a maker of decisions for you?

And he said to them, Take care to keep yourselves free from the desire for property; for a man's life is not made up of the number of things which he has.

And he said to them, in a story, The land of a certain man of great wealth was very fertile:

And he said to himself, What is to be done? for I have no place in which to put all my fruit.

And he said, This I will do: I will take down my store-houses and make greater ones, and there I will put all my grain and my goods.

But God said to him, You foolish one, tonight I will take your soul from you, and who then will be the owner of all the things which you have got together?

And he said to his disciples, For this reason I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about what food you will take, or for your body, how it may be clothed.

And Peter said to him, Lord, are these words said to us only, or to all men?

And the Lord said, Who then is the wise and responsible servant whom his lord will put in control of his family, to give them their food at the right time?

Then he said to the people, When you see a cloud coming up in the west, straight away you say, There will be rain; and so it is.

And he, in answer, said to them, Are you of the opinion that these Galilaeans were worse than all other Galilaeans, because these things were done to them?

And he said to the gardener, See, for three years I have been looking for fruit from this tree, and I have not had any: let it be cut down; why is it taking up space?

And he said, Lord, let it be for this year, and I will have the earth turned up round it, and put animal waste on it, to make it fertile:

And when Jesus saw her, he said to her, Woman, you are made free from your disease.

And the ruler of the Synagogue was angry because Jesus had made her well on the Sabbath, and he said to the people, There are six days in which men may do work: so come on those days to be made well, and not on the Sabbath.

But the Lord gave him an answer and said, O you false men! do you not, every one of you, on the Sabbath, let loose his ox and his ass and take it to the water?

And when he said these things, those who were against him were shamed, and all the people were full of joy because of the great things which were done by him.

Then he said, What is the kingdom of God like? what comparison may I make of it?

It is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his garden, and it became a tree, and the birds of heaven made their resting-places in its branches.

And again he said, What is the kingdom of God like?

And someone said to him, Lord, will only a small number have salvation? And he said to them,

At that time, certain Pharisees came to him and said, Go away from this place, because Herod's purpose is to put you to death.

And he said, Go and say to that fox, I send out evil spirits and do works of mercy today and tomorrow, and on the third day my work will be complete.
