they argued one with another, saying, It is because we have no bread.

And Jesus knowing it saith unto them, What are ye reasoning about? because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet discern nor understand? have ye your heart still hardened?

And He said unto them, How is it then that ye do not understand?

And He took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and having spit on his eyes, He laid his hands upon him, and asked him, If he saw any thing.

And he looked up, and said, I see men (as it were trees) walking.

Then Jesus and his disciples went out into the towns of Cesarea Philippi: and by the way He asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I am?

for he that would save his life, shall lose it; but he that would lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, shall save it.

For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

or what shall a man give as a ransom for his soul?

and his raiment shone, being exceeding white as snow, so as no fuller on earth can whiten.

Then said Peter to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: let us make three tabernacles; one for Thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias:

for he knew not what to say, for they were sore afraid.

And there was a cloud overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, hear ye Him.

And as they came down from the mountain, He charged them to tell no one what they had seen, till after the Son of man were risen from the dead.

And they laid hold on that expression, querying among themselves, what means the rising from the dead?

And He answered and told them, Elias doth indeed come first, and settle all things: He told them likewise how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things and be used contemptuously.

But I tell you, that Elias is come, and they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him.

And he asked the scribes, What are ye disputing about?

and wherever it seizeth him, it convulseth him; and he fometh, and gnasheth his teeth, and thus he pineth away: and I desired thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.

And He asked his father, How long is it since this befel him? And he said, From a child.

And it has often thrown him both into the fire and into the waters to destroy him. But if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us and help us.

And the father of the child immediately cried out and said with tears, Lord, I believe, help thou my unbelief.

when Jesus saw the people flock together, He rebuked the impure spirit, and said to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, Come out of him, and enter no more into him.

And when he had rored and vehemently convulsed him, he came out of him: and the child was as one dead, so that many said, that he was dead.

And when He was come into the house, his disciples asked Him in private, Why could not we cast him out?

And He said unto them, This kind cannot be cast out, but by prayer and fasting.

And they departed from thence and passed through Galilee, and He was not willing that any should know it;

And he came to Capernaum; and when He was in the house, He asked them, What were ye disputing about among yourselves by the way?

But John answered Him and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, who doth not follow us; and we forbade him, because he followeth not us.

And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones, that believe in me, to offend, it were better for him, if a milstone were laid upon his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

And if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands, to go into hell, into the fire that will never be extinguished;

And if thy foot cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the inextinguishable fire;

And if thine eye cause thee to offend, cast it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell-fire;

For every one shall be as it were salted by fire, and every sacrifice shall be seasoned as with salt.

Salt is useful, but if the salt become insipid, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt therefore in yourselves, and as a proof of it be at peace one with another.

And the pharisees came to Him and asked Him, "if it were lawful for a man to put away his wife," tempting Him.

And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?

Therefore let not man separate what God hath joined together.

And when they were in the house his disciples asked Him again about it:

Verily I tell you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall by no means enter into it.

And as he went out into the way, there came one running and kneeling to Him, and asked Him, Good master, what shall I do, that I may inherit eternal life?

Then Jesus looked upon him with affection, and said to him, One thing thou wantest; go, sell all that thou hast, and give it to the poor; and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross and follow me.

But he was sad at that saying, and went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.

And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus repeating it, saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them, that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God!

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

But Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.

And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed at it, and afraid to follow Him. And again taking the twelve aside, He began to tell them what things should befal Him,

Then come to Him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, Master, we desire that thou wouldest do for us what we shall request:

and He said to them, What do ye desire me to do for you?

But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink of the cup, that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

but to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, but for whom it is prepared.

And when the other ten heard it, they were provoked at James and John.

But Jesus called them to Him, and said unto them, Ye know that those who rule among the Gentiles, lord it over them, and their grandees exercise authority upon them.

But it shall not be so among you: but whoever would be great among you shall be your minister;

And they came to Jericho: and as He was going out of Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, sat by the way-side begging.

And hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

And many rebuked him, that he might hold his peace: but he cried out so much the more, Thou son of David, have pity on me.

And Jesus said to him, What dost thou desire that I should do for thee? And the blind man said to Him, Lord, that I may recover my sight.

And when they came near to Jerusalem, even to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, He sendeth two of his disciples,

and saith to them, Go into the village over against you, and as soon as ye enter into it, ye will find a colt tied, on which no man hath yet sat; loose him, and bring him to me.

And if any one say to you, Why do ye so? tell him, that the Lord hath need of it, and he will immediately send it hither.

And they went and found the colt tied at a door abroad, where two ways met, and they untied it.

And some of the people that stood there, said to them, What do ye mean by untying the colt?

So they brought the colt to Jesus, and laid their garments on it, and He sat upon it.

And they that went before, and they that followed, cried out, saying, Hosanna, blessed be He that cometh in the name of the Lord:

And Jesus went into Jerusalem, and into the temple; and when He had looked round upon every thing, it being now late in the day, He went out to Bethany with the twelve.

and seeing a fig-tree at a distance, with leaves, He went to see if He might find any thing upon it; and when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves; (for the time of gathering figs was not yet come:) And Jesus spake and said unto it,

Let no one ever eat fruit of thee hereafter. And his disciples heard it.

Then they came to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to turn out those that sold and bought in the court of the temple, and threw down the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold doves:

And He taught them, saying, Is it not written, my house shall be called an house of prayer for all nations? But ye have made it a den of thieves.

And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how to destroy Him; for they feared Him, because all the people were struck with his doctrine.

And when it was evening, He went out of the city.

And in the morning, as they were passing by it, they saw the fig-tree withered from the roots.

that whosoever shall say to this mountain, "Be thou removed and cast into the sea," and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he saith shall be done, he shall have whatsoever he saith.

Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye ask in prayer, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

and ask Him, By what authority dost thou these things, and who gave thee this authority, to do thus?

But Jesus said to them, I also will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? answer me.

and they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus replied and said unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

And He began to speak unto them in parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and made a fence about it, and digged a place for the wine-fat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and travelled abroad.

And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that he might receive from them of the fruit of the vineyard:

And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they threw stones, and wounded him on the head, and sent him away shamefully used.

Having yet therefore one Son, his beloved, he sent him also at last unto them, saying, they will reverence my Son.

And they took him, and killed Him too, casting him out of the vineyard.

What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will let the vineyard to others.

this was from the Lord, and it is marvellous in our eyes."

and these, when they came, said to Him, Master, we know that thou art a man of truth, and carest for no man; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to pay tribute to Cesar, or not? should we give, or should we not give?

But He knew their hypocrisy, and said to them, Why do ye tempt me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Render then unto Cesar the things that are Cesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at Him.

and the second is like it, even this, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:" there is no other commandment greater than these.

for David himself said by the holy Spirit, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

and the chief seats in the synagogues, and uppermost places at feasts;

and there came a poor widow and put in two mites, that is, a farthing.

And He called his disciples to Him, and saith unto them, Verily I tell you, that this poor widow has given more than all those who have cast into the treasury.

For they all have contributed out of their abundance: but she out of her penury hath given all that she had, even her whole living.

And as He was going out of the temple, one of his disciples saith to Him, Master, behold what fine stones are here, and what stately buildings!

saying, Tell us when these things shall be, and what shall be the sign when all these things are to be accomplished.

And when ye hear of wars, and rumors of wars, be not troubled; for such things must happen; but the end will not be yet.

But when they shall lead you to deliver you up, be not anxiously careful beforehand what ye shall speak, neither premeditate: but whatever shall be suggested to you at that very time, this speak: for it is not you that speak, but the holy Spirit.

Now when ye shall see the desolating abomination, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, set up where it ought not to be, (let him that readeth, attend) then let those in Judea flee to the mountains:
