You blind Pharisee, first clean the inside of the cup and of the platter, that its outside may become clean also.

Therefore you testify to yourselves that you are children of those who killed the prophets.

For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away.

And it happened, when Jesus had finished all these words, that he said to his disciples,

"You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified."

They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit, and kill him.

and said, "What are you willing to give me, that I should deliver him to you?" They weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver.

From that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

As they were eating, he said, "Truly I tell you that one of you will betray me."

Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus was condemned, felt remorse, and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

The angel answered the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus, who has been crucified.

And when they could not come near to him for the crowd, they removed the roof above him. When they had broken it up, they let down the mat that the paralytic was lying on.

"Why does this man speak like that? He is blaspheming; who can forgive sins but God alone?"

And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, said to them, "Why do you reason these things in your hearts?

But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins", he said to the paralytic,

And he arose immediately, and took up the mat, and went out in front of them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this."

And it happened that he was going on the Sabbath day through the grain fields, and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of grain.

And the Pharisees said to him, "Look, why do they do that which is not lawful on the Sabbath day?"

And They watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

And he told his disciples that a small boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they would not press on him.

For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.

And he sternly warned them that they should not make him known.

And he appointed twelve, designating them apostles, and that he might send them out to preach,

And he came into a house, and the crowd came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

yet when it is sown, grows up, and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow."

And on that day, when evening had come, he said to them, "Let us go over to the other side."

And a big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.

And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion, and they woke him up, and told him, "Teacher, do you not care that we are dying?"

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

And he begged him much that he would not send them away out of the region.
