and as He entered into a certain village, there met Him ten men that were lepers:

And one of them, perceiving that he was healed, returned, with a loud voice glorifying God:

They were eating, drinking, marrying, and being married, till the day that Noah went into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all.

but the very day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.

Thus shall it be in the day that the Son of man is revealed.

In that day, whoever shall be on the house-top, and his goods in the house, let him not come down into it to take them away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

In that night there shall be two in one bed; the one shall be taken and the other left:

And He spake also a parable to them, to shew that men ought always to pray, and not to faint:

And there was a widow in that city, who came to him, saying, Do me justice of my adversary.

and will not God do justice for his elect that cry to Him day and night, though He bear long with them.

And He spake also this parable to some that trusted in themselves as being righteous, and despised others.

The pharisee standing by himself prayed thus, O God, I thank thee that I am not as other men are, rapacious, unjust, adulterous, or even as this publican.

I fast twice a week, and I give tithes of all that I possess.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for whoever exalteth himself shall be abased, but he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

And they brought to Him infants also, that He might touch them: and his disciples seeing it rebuked them.

And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is God.

But when Jesus heard these things He said unto him, Thou yet wantest one thing, Sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, He said, How difficultly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God?

And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?

And He said unto them, Verily I tell you, there is no one that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,

But they understood none of these things; and this matter was hid from them, so that they knew not the things which were spoken.

And they, that went before, rebuked him, that he might hold his peace, but he cried out the more, O Son of David, have pity on me.

He asked him, saying, What wouldst thou that I should do for thee? And he said, Lord, that I may recover my sight.

And he ran before and got up into a sycamore-tree that he might see Him; for He was to pass by that way.

For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

And as they listened to these things, He proceeded and spake a parable; because He was nigh to Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God would immediately be manifested.

And when he was returned, having received the kingdom, he ordered these servants to be called to him, to whom he had delivered the money, that he might know what use each had made of it.

But he said to him, Out of thy own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant, Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow;

and why then didst thou not put my money into the bank, that when I came I might have received it with interest?

And he said to them that stood by, Take away the pound from him, and give it to him that hath the ten pounds.

for I tell you, that to every one that hath shall be given; but from him that hath not, even what he seemingly hath shall be taken away.

And they that were sent, went away and found it as He had told them.

saying, Blessed be the king that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!

And He answered them, I tell you, that if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.

For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast up a trench about thee, and surround thee, and keep thee in on every side,

And He went into the temple, and cast out those that were buying and selling in it,

Tell us by what authority thou dost these things? or who it is that gave thee this authority?

but if we say, Of men, the people will all stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.

and at the fruit-season he sent a servant to the husbandmen that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen beat him and sent him away empty.

But when the husbandmen saw Him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir, come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.

Whosoever falleth on that stone shall be bruised; but on whomsoever it falleth, it will crush him to pieces.

And the chief priests and the scribes would have laid hands on Him at that very time, but were afraid of the people: for they perceived that He had spoken this parable against them.

And they watched Him and sent out spies, pretending to be righteous men, to lay hold of his words, that they might deliver Him up to the power and authority of the governor.

And they asked Him, saying, Master, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly, and acceptest not the person of any, but teachest the way of God in truth:

Then said He unto them, Render therefore unto Cesar the things that are Cesar's, and to God the things that are God's.

saying, Moses enjoined us, if any man's brother die, having a wife, and he die childless, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.

But they who are counted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:

Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush; for he calleth the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

And He said unto them, How do they say, that Christ is the son of David?

the days will come, in which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be demolished.

And He said, Take heed that ye be not deceived; for many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and the time is near: but do not therefore go after them.

And when ye shall see Jerusalem surrounded with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh: then let them that are in Judea flee to the mountains,

and those that are in the midst of it, depart; and let not them that are in the countries enter into it.

For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

But wo to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days; for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people,

and men ready to die for fear and apprehension of the things that are coming upon the land; for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

and all the trees, when they shoot out, ye see and know of yourselves that summer is now near:

so likewise know ye, when ye see these things coming to pass, that the kingdom of God is at hand.

Take heed to yourselves, least at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness, and the cares of life, and so that day should come upon you unawares:

for as a snare shall it come upon all that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

Watch therefore and be constant in prayer, that ye may be counted worthy to escape all these things, which shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat of it.

for I say unto you, that I will not eat of it any more, till it be accomplished in the kingdom of God.

For I tell you, that I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God shall come.

And yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is at table with me:

and the Son of man is going indeed as was determined; but wo to that man by whom He is betrayed.

And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do it.

But ye shall not do so: but let the greatest among you be as the younger; and he that presides as he that serveth.

For which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at table? but I am among you as one that serveth.

that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you my disciples, that he may sift you as wheat:

but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

But He replied, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.

Then said He unto them, But now let him, that hath a purse, take it, and his bag likewise; and let him that has no sword, sell his garment and buy one:

for I tell you, that this which is written must yet be accomplished in me, "And He was numbered with transgressors," for the things foretold concerning me are near at an end.

And when He was at the place, He said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

and He said to them, Why do ye sleep? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

And while He was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve apostles, came before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss Him:

But when they that were about Him saw what would follow, they said to Him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

Then said Jesus to the chief priests, and officers of the temple, and elders, that were come to Him, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and clubs?

And the men that laid hold on Jesus, insulted and abused Him;

and when they had blind-folded Him, they struck Him on the face, and asked Him, saying, Prophesy who it was that smote thee.

And they began to accuse Him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbiding to give tribute to Cesar; saying, that He himself is Christ the king.

and understanding that He was of Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also at Jerusalem at that time.

And on that same day Pilate and Herod became friends with each other: for before they were at enmity one with the other.

and the people, and said unto them, Ye have brought to me this man as one that perverteth the people: and behold I have examined Him before you, and found nothing chargeable on Him, of the things you alledge against Him:

So Pilate gave sentence that what they demanded should be done.

And he released to them him that for sedition and murder had been cast into prison, whom they desired; and delivered up Jesus to their will.

For behold the days are coming in which they shall say, happy are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the breasts that never gave suck.

And one of the malefactors that were executed with Him reviled Him, saying, If thou be the Messiah, save thyself and us.

And all the multitudes that came together to this affecting sight, seeing what happened, smote on their breasts and returned.

And all his acquaintance stood at a distance, and the women that followed Him from Galilee, beholding these things.

Now that day was the preparation, and the sabbath was coming on:

wherefore the women, that came with Him from Galilee, followed Joseph, and saw the sepulchre, and how the body was laid:

Now it was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, that told these things to the apostles:

And behold two of them were going that day to a village about threescore furlongs from Jerusalem, called Emmaus.

But their eyes were so restrained that they did not know Him.

But we hoped that it was He that would have delivered Israel: and besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done.

and not finding his body there, came and said likewise that they had seen a vision of angels, who said He was alive.

And some of those that were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it so as the women had said: but Him they did not see.
