And fear seized all. And they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has been raised among us, and, God came to help his people.

And when they came to him, they said, John the immerser has sent us to thee, saying, Are thou he who comes, or do we look for another man?

And blessed is he, whoever will not be offended by me.

This is he about whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who will prepare thy way before thee.

For I say to you, among men born of women there is not one prophet greater than John the immerser, yet the smaller in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

And wisdom is justified from all her children.

But when the Pharisee who invited him saw it, he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who and what kind the woman is who touches him, that she is sinful.

For this reason I say to thee, her many sins are forgiven, because she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, loves little.

And those who sat together began to say within themselves, Who is this who even forgives sins?

And another fell on the good ground, and having grown it produced fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things, he called out, He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

And his disciples questioned him, saying, What is this parable?

And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the others in parables, so that seeing they would not see, and hearing they would not understand.

Now the parable is this. The seed is the word of God.

And that which fell in the thorns, these are those who heard, and as they go they are choked by cares and wealth and pleasures of life, and do not bring to maturity.

For there is no secret that will not become visible, nor hid, that will not be known and come to be visible.

Now it came to pass on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, also his disciples. And he said to them, Let us pass through to the other side of the lake. And they launched forth,

but as they sailed he began to asleep. And a storm of wind came down on the lake, and they were filling up, and were in peril.

And he said to them, Where is your faith? And having feared, they wondered, saying to each other, Who then is this man, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?

And they sailed toward the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.

And when he saw Jesus, having cried out, he fell down before him. And in a great voice he said, What is with me and with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.

And Jesus demanded him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion, because many demons were entered into him.

And behold, there came a man whose name was Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And having fallen down near Jesus' feet, he besought him to come into his house,

And Jesus said, Who is he who touched me? But when they all denied, Peter and those with him, said, Master, the multitudes come together and crowd thee, and thou say, Who is he who touched me?

And as many as will not receive you, when departing from that city, also shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

And Herod said, I beheaded John, but who is this about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.

And when the apostles returned, they related to him as many things as they did. And having taken them along, he withdrew in private into a desolate place of a city called Bethsaida.

But he said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, There are for us not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless, after going, we might buy food for all this people.

And it came to pass, as he was praying privately, the disciples were with him. And he questioned them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?

saying, It is necessary for the Son of man to suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scholars, and be killed, and the third day to rise.

For what is a man benefited, having gained the whole world, but having lost or having forfeited himself?

And as he was praying, the appearance of his face became different, and his clothing glistening white.

And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here, and we could make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah, not knowing what he was sayi

And while he was speaking these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.

And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him.

And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee to look upon my son, because he is the only begotten to me.

And as he was still a coming, the demon tore him, and he convulsed. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

Place ye these sayings into your ears, for the Son of man is going to be delivered up into the hands of men.

And having answered, John said, Master, we saw a certain man casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.

But Jesus said to him, Do not forbid, for he who is not against us is for us.

And he sent agents before his face, and they went. And having gone, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to make ready for him.

And his disciples James and John having seen, they said, Lord, do thou want that we should call fire to come down from the sky, and consume them, as also Elijah did?

But Jesus said to him, No man, having put his hand to a plow, and looking to things behind, is fit for the kingdom of God.

Therefore he said to them, The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the workmen are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth workmen into his harvest.

Go ye. Behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.

And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him, and if not, it will return to you.

And remain in the same house eating and drinking from their things, for the workman is worthy of his wage. Do not depart from house to house.

Even the dust that clings on us from your city, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know ye this, that the kingdom of God has come near to you.

And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are made subject to us in thy name.

And he said to them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from the sky.

In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit, and said, I thank thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and the earth, that thou hid these things from the wise and astute, and revealed them to the childlike. Yea, Father, because it becam

And having turned to the disciples, he said, All things were delivered to me by my Father. And no man knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son wants to reveal him.

And he said to him, What is written in the law? How read thou?

And having answered, he said, Thou shall love Lord thy God from thy whole heart, and from thy whole soul, and from thy whole strength, and from thy whole mind, and thy neighbor as thyself.

But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to him, and when he saw him, felt compassion.

And it came to pass as they went, he also entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

but one thing is necessary, and Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.

And it came to pass as he was in a certain place praying, that when he ceased, a certain man of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray as John also taught his disciples.

And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Our Father in the heavens, hallowed be thy name. May thy kingdom come, may thy will happen on the earth as also in heaven.

Give us our bread sufficient for each day.

And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive every man who is indebted to us. And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

and that man from inside, having answered, would say, Do not cause toils for me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I am not able, after getting up, to give thee?

I say to you, though he will not give him, after getting up, because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, having awaken, he will give him as many as he needs.

But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom that was divided against itself is made desolate, and a house against a house falls.

And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom be made to stand? Because ye say that I cast out the demons by Beelzebub.

He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.

And it came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman, having lifted up her voice out of the crowd, said to him, Blessed is the belly that bore thee, and the breasts that thou suckled.

And when the multitudes gathered together he began to say, This generation is evil. They seek a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah, the prophet.

For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of man will be to this generation.

The queen of the south will awake in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.

The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.

The lamp of thy body is the eye. Therefore, when thine eye is sound, thy whole body is also bright, but when it is bad, thy body is also dark.

If therefore thy whole body is bright, not having any part dark, the whole will be bright, as when the lamp illuminates thee by the radiance.

Now as he spoke a certain Pharisee asks him that he might dine with him. And having entered in, he sat down.

And the Lord said to him, Now ye Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your interior is full of plundering and wickedness.

But woe to you Pharisees! Because ye tithe mint and rue and every plant, and pass by justice and the love of God. It is necessary to do these things, and not to neglect those things.

And having answered, a certain man of the lawyers says to him, Teacher, in saying these things thou rebuke us also.

During which time the myriads of the multitude having gathered together so as to trample each other, he began first to say to his disciples, Take heed to yourselves from the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.

Therefore, as many things as ye have said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what ye have spoken in the ear in the inner chambers will be proclaimed upon the housetops.

Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? And not one of them is forgotten in the sight of God.

And he said to them, Watch, and keep away from greed, because to any man, life to him is not in the abundance of things possessed by him.

But God said to him, Thou foolish man, they demand thy soul from thee this night, and the things that thou prepared, whose will they be?

So is he who stores up for himself, and is not being rich toward God.

For the life is more than the food, and the body, the clothing.

Consider the ravens, because they do not sow, nor do they reap, for which there is no storehouse nor barn, and God feeds them. How much ye are worth more than the birds.

And if God so clothes the grass in the field, which today is, and tomorrow being cast into the oven, how much more you, O ye of little faith?

Fear not, little flock, because your Father is well pleased to give you the kingdom.

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

And Peter said to him, Lord, did thou speak this parable to us, or also to all?

And the Lord said, Who then is the faithful and wise manager whom his lord will appoint over his service to give the provision on time?

Blessed is that bondman whom his lord when he comes will find so doing.

But if that bondman should say in his heart, My lord is late to come, and should begin to beat the servant boys and the servant girls, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken,

the lord of that bondman will arrive in a day that he does not expect, and in an hour that he is not aware, and will cut him in two, and will place his portion with the unbelieving.

I came to cast fire upon the earth, and what I desire is if it were kindled already.

And he also said to the multitudes, When ye see a cloud rising from the west, straightaway ye say, A shower is coming, and so it happens.

And when a south wind is blowing, ye say, There will be heat, and it happens.

And also why do ye not judge yourselves what is right?

Now some were present at the same time who informed him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate mingled with their sacrifices.

And as he said these things all those opposing him were shamed, and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
