“Lord,” the centurion replied, “I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But only say the word, and my servant will be cured.

For I also myself am a man under power, and have soldiers under me: and I say to one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it."

Now [when] Jesus heard [this], he was astonished, and said to those who were following [him], "Truly I say to you, I have found such great faith with no one in Israel.

But I say unto you, Many from east and west, will have come, and shall recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of the heavens;

And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go, as you have believed it will be done for you." And the slave was healed at that hour.

And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have dens and birds of the sky [have] nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head."

And He called to them, "Why are you [so] afraid? You have such little faith!" Then He stood up and sternly commanded the wind and the waves, and they became very calm.

And behold, they cried out, saying, "{What do you have to do with us}, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

And behold, they brought to him a paralytic lying on a stretcher, and [when] Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Have courage, child, your sins are forgiven."

And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said, "Why do you have such wicked thoughts in your hearts?

for which is easier? to say, The sins have been forgiven to thee; or to say, Rise, and walk?

But I would have you know that the Son of Man has authority to forgive sins on earth." Then he said to the paralytic, "Get up, pick up your bed and go home!"

And [when he] heard [it], he said, "Those who are healthy do not have need of a physician, but those {who are sick}.

But go and learn what that is I will have mercy and not sacrifice; for I have not come to call righteous men but sinners.

And Jesus said to them, Can the sons of the bridechamber mourn so long as the bridegroom is with them? But days will come when the bridegroom will have been taken away from them, and then they will fast.

But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, "Have courage, daughter! Your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that hour.

And [as] Jesus was going away from there, two blind men followed him, crying out and saying, "Have mercy on us, Son of David!"

And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Have you faith that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.

Then he touched their eyes and said, "You shall have what your faith expects."

And their eyes were made open. And Jesus said to them sharply, Let no man have knowledge of it.

And, as they were going forth, behold, they have brought to Him a dumb man, a demoniac;

And [when he] saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were weary and dejected, like sheep that did not have a shepherd.

Heal those who are sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, expel demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

nor yet scrip towards your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet a staff: for the workman is worthy to have his meat.

if the family be worthy, your benediction shall have its effect; but if it be not worthy, it shall only redound to your own advantage.

And whoever does not welcome you or listen to what you have to say, shake the dust off of your shoes as you leave that house or town. [Note: This was a Jewish custom showing disdain and intended to suggest unworthiness]

But, watch out for people, for they will turn you over to the [Jewish] councils [for judgment] and will have you flogged in their synagogues.

But when they have delivered you up be not anxious how you shall speak, or what you shall say, for it shall be given you in that hour what to say;

"And brother will hand over brother to death, and a father [his] children, and children will rise up against parents and have them put to death,

And you will be hated by all men because of my name: but he who is strong to the end will have salvation.

But when they persecute you in this city, flee to the other; for verily I say to you, Ye shall not have completed the cities of Israel until the Son of man be come.

[It is] enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household?

If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his houshold? Therefore fear them not; for there is nothing covered, that shall not be discovered; nor hid, that shall not be known.

And have no fear of those who put to death the body, but are not able to put to death the soul. But have fear of him who has power to give soul and body to destruction in hell.

Even the very hairs on your head have all been counted by God.

Then have no fear; you are of more value than a flock of sparrows.

But if anyone says before men that he has no knowledge of me, I will say that I have no knowledge of him before my Father in heaven.

"Do not think that I have come to bring peace on the earth! I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

For I have come to turn a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him.

Whoever welcomes a prophet because he is a prophet will have the same reward as a prophet, and whoever welcomes an upright man because he is upright will have the same reward as an upright man.

Jesus answered and said unto them, "Go and show John what ye have heard and seen:

the blind receive sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised, and the poor have good news announced to [them].

But what went you out to see? a man delicately clothed? Those who have fair robes are in kings' houses.

Truly I say to you, Among those who have been born of women there has not risen a greater one than John the Baptist. But the least in the kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.

From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been suffering violence, and the violent have been seizing it by force.

For all the prophets and the law have prophesied unto John.

"Let all who have ears, listen!

say, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced: we have mourned to you, and ye have not wailed.

"Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades! For if the miracles done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until today.

At that time Jesus answered [and] said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these [things] from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to young children.

Yes, I thank you, Father, for choosing to have it so.

All [things] have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and {anyone to whom} the Son wants to reveal [him].

Come to me, all ye who labor and have been burdened, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke on you and become like me, for I am gentle and without pride, and you will have rest for your souls;

So he said to them, "Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and those with him,

and did eat the shew-bread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor those that were with him; but for the priests only? or have ye not read in the law,

Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple violate the sanctity of the Sabbath and are guiltless?

And if you had known what {it means}, 'I want mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.

"you would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath."

And there was a man with a dead hand. And they put a question to him, saying, Is it right to make a man well on the Sabbath day? so that they might have something against him.

But he said to them, "What man will there be among you who will have one sheep and if this one fell into a pit on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and lift [it] out?

that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Behold my servant whom I have chosen,

"Behold my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

So, in His name the [unconverted] Gentiles will have hope."

So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.

And whosoever shall have spoken a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age nor in the coming one.

But I say unto you, that of every idle word, that men shall have spoken, they shall give accounts at the day of judgment.

Then some of the scribes and Pharisees addressed him, saying, "Master, we would like to have you show us some sign."

but he answered them, this wicked degenerate race demand a miracle; but no other miracle shall they have, except that of the prophet Jonas.

I will return then, says he, into my house, which I have quitted; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

While he was still talking to the people, his mother and his brothers came, desiring to have talk with him.

And one said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside, desiring to have talk with you.

And other [seed] fell on the rocky ground, where it did not have much soil, and it sprang up at once because it did not have [any] depth of soil.

But [when] the sun rose it was scorched, and because it did not have [enough] root, it withered.

He answered them, “Because the secrets of the kingdom of heaven have been given for you to know, but it has not been given to them.

For whoever has, to him [more] will be given, and he will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

That is why I speak to them in parables, because, though they have eyes, they do not see, and though they have ears, they do not hear or understand.

And for them the words of Isaiah have come true, Though you give ear, you will not get knowledge; and seeing, you will see, but the sense will not be clear to you:

For the heart of this people has become dull, and with their ears they hear with difficulty, and they have shut their eyes, so that they would not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them."

but happy are you that your eyes have sight; and that your ears have their hearing.

for verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see the things which ye behold and did not see them, and to hear the things which ye hear and did not hear them.

But he does not have a root in himself, but {lasts only a little while}, and [when] affliction or persecution happens because of the word, immediately he falls away.

So the slaves of the master of the house came [and] said to him, 'Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have darnel?'

to fulfill that which was spoken by the prophet saying, "I will open my mouth in similitudes, and will speak forth things which have been kept secret from the beginning of the world."

so it shall be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and after they have separated the wicked from the just,

"Have you understood all these [things]?" They said to him, "Yes."

And when He had come into His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so much so that they were astonished and said, From where does this man have this wisdom and these mighty works?

and his sisters, are they not all with us? Then from where does this man have all these things?

because John had been saying to him, "It is not permitted for you to have her."

And when he would have put him to death, he feared the people, because they counted him as a prophet.

So he gave her his word with an oath to let her have whatever she might make request for.

But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go: give ye them to eat.

And they said to him, "We do not have [anything] here except five loaves and two fish."

And immediately he compelled the disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before him to the other side, until he should have dismissed the crowds.

But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Have courage, I am [he]! Do not be afraid!"

And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him and said, "You have such little faith; why did you doubt?"

But He answered, "Why do you too break God's command for the sake of the rules that have been handed down to you?

But you say, 'Whoever says to his father or his mother, "Whatever {benefit you would have received} from me [is] a gift [to God],"
