It would be better for him that a millstone were hung about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.

Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sin against you, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.

And if he sin against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to you and say, I repent, you shall forgive him.

Which of you that has a servant plowing, or feeding a flock, will say to him immediately, when he comes in from the field, Go and recline at table?

But will he not say to him, Make ready my supper, and gird yourself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunk; and afterward, you shall eat and drink?

And as he entered a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood at a distance.

And he fell on his face at his feet, and gave him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.

And he said to him: Arise, and go; your faith has saved you.

In that day, let not him that is on the house-top, and whose goods are in the house, come down to take them away. Likewise, he that is in the field, let him not turn back.

And they answered and said to him. Where, Lord? And he said to them: Where the body is, there will the vultures be gathered.

And there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, and said: Avenge me on my opponent at law.

and will not God avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night, though he delay long in respect to them?

And they brought to him infants also, that he might touch them. But when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

And Jesus called them to him, and said: Let the little children come to me, and hinder them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.

And a certain ruler asked him, saying: Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

And Jesus said to him: Why do you call me good? None is good but one, that is God.

When Jesus heard this, he said to him: One thing you yet lack; sell all that you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

and they shall scourge him, and put him to death, and on the third day he shall rise again.

And they told him that Jesus the Nazarene was passing by.

And those who went before rebuked him, that he should be silent. But he cried so much the more: Son of David, have mercy on me.

And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, he asked him,

And Jesus said to him: Receive your sight; your faith has saved you.

And he immediately received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

And he ran before, and climbed up a sycamore-tree, that he might see him, for he was about to pass that way.

And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him: Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for I must spend this day at your house.

And he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully.

And Zacchaeus stood, and said to the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken from any one by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.

And Jesus said to him: To-day has salvation come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.

But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.

And he said to him: Well done, good servant; because you have been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.

And he said to him also: And be you over five cities.

Then he said to him: Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was a hard man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow.

And he said to those who stood by: Take from him the pound, and give it to him that has ten pounds.

And they said to him: Lord, he has ten pounds.

For I say to you, To every one that has, it shall be given; but from him that has not, even that which he has shall be taken away.

saying: Go into the opposite village, in which, when you enter, you will find a colt tied, on which no man ever sat. Loose him, and bring him.

And if any one ask you why you loose him, thus shall you say to him: The Lord has need of him.

And as they were loosing the colt, the owners of him said to them: Why do you loose the colt?

They replied: The Lord has need of him.

And they brought him to Jesus, and threw their mantles upon the colt, and set Jesus on him.

And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude, said to him: Teacher, rebuke your disciples.

And he was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests, and the scribes, and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,

And it came to pass, that, on one of those days, while he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came to him,

and spoke to him, saying: Tell us by what authority you do these things? or, who is he that gave you this authority?

And they reasoned among themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven, he will reply: Why, then, did you not believe him?

And at the proper sea son, he sent a servant to those vine-dressers, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vine-dressers scourged him, and sent him away empty-handed.

And ho then sent another servant. But they scourged him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.

And he also sent a third; but they wounded him, and drove him out.

And the owner of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps, when they see him, they will reverence him.

But when the vine-dressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying: This is the heir; come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.

And they drove him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

Whoever shall fall on this stone, shall be dashed to pieces; but on whomever it shall fall, it will make him as chaff for the wind.

And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him, the same hour; (and yet they feared the people;) for they knew that he spoke this parable against them.

And they watched him, and sent spies, who feigned them selves to be just men, that they might take hold of his words, in order to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.

And they asked him, saying: Teacher, we know that you speak and teach rightly, and do not regard the person of any, but teach the way of God in truth.

Then there came to him some of the Sadducees, (these deny that there is any resurrection,) and asked him,

He is not a God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him.

And after this they durst not ask him any question at all.

David, therefore, calls him Lord; and how is he his son?

And they asked him, saying: Teacher, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign when these things come to pass?

And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, in order to hear him.

And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

And he went away, and conferred with the chief priests and the captains how he might deliver him up to them.

And they were glad, and agreed to give him money.

And he consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him up to them without tumult.

They said to him: Where dost thou wish that we make it ready?

And he said to them: Behold, as you go into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters;

And when the hour had come, he reclined at table, and the twelve apostles with him.

But, behold, the hand of him that delivers me up is with me on the table.

But you shall not be so; but let the greatest among you be as the younger, and him that is chief, as he that serves.

And he said to him: Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both to prison and to death.

Then he said to them: But now, he that has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag; and he that has no sword, let him sell his mantle and buy one.

And after he had gone out, he went, according to custom, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples followed him.

And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, to strengthen him.

And while he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and came near to Jesus to kiss him.

But Jesus said to him: Judas, do you deliver up the Son of man with a kiss?

When those who were about him saw what would be done, they said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?

And Jesus answered and said: Let this matter proceed thus far. And he touched his ear and healed him.

And Jesus said to the chief priests, and the captains of the temple, and the elders that had come against him: Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber?

And they took him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the chief priest. But Peter followed at a distance.

And a certain maid-servant saw him sitting by the fire; and, looking intently at him, she said: This man also was with him.

But he denied, saying: "Woman, I know him not.

And after a little, another saw him, and said: You also are one of them. Peter replied: Man, I am not.

And about one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man also was with him; for he is a Galilean.

And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times.

And the men that had Jesus in custody mocked him, and smote him.

And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying: Give a response; who is it that struck you?

And many other impious things they said to him.

And when it was day, the elders of the people, the chief priests also and scribes, met together, and led him up to the Sanhedrin, and said:

And the whole number of them arose, and led him away to Pilate.

And they began to accuse him, saying: We found this man turning the people away, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ, a king.

And Pilate asked him, saying: Are you the king of the Jews? He answered and said to him: You say it.

And when he learned that he belonged to the dominion of Herod, he sent him to Herod, who was at that time in Jerusalem.

When Herod saw Jesus, he rejoiced greatly; for he had, for a long time, desired to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some sign done by him.

And he questioned him concerning many things; but he made him no answer.

And the chief priests and the scribes stood by, and vehemently accused him.

But Herod and his guards treated him with contempt; and having mocked him, and put on him a gaudy robe, he sent him back to Pilate.

and said to them: You have brought to me this man as one that turns the people away; and behold, I have examined him before you, and have found in this man no fault, with respect to the things of which you accuse him;

nor indeed did Herod; for I sent you to him, and behold, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.

I will, therefore, chastise him, and release him.
