Demons also were coming out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that He was the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed).

When it was day, He went out and made His way to a deserted place. But the crowds were searching for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving them.

But he said unto them, I must preach the good tidings of the kingdom of God to the other cities also: for therefore was I sent.

And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

But when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Draw out into the deep water and let down your nets for a haul.

And Simon answered and said, Master, we toiled all night, and took nothing: but at thy word I will let down the nets.

but they made signs to their fellows which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and they filled both the ships, that they sunk again.

But Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell down at Jesus knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

and so were Simon's partners, James and John, sons of Zebedee.) But Jesus answered Simon. "Fear not; from this time on, you will be catching men."

And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

But he withdrew himself in the deserts, and prayed.

And behold there came men carrying a paralytic on a bed; and they tried to bring him and lay him before Jesus, but they could not because of the crowd.

But finding no way to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof [and removed some tiles to make an opening] and lowered him through the tiles with his stretcher, into the middle of the crowd, in front of Jesus.

And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house.

But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.

I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?

But Jesus told them, "You can't force the wedding guests to fast while the groom is still with them, can you?

But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

He also told them a parable: “No one tears a patch from a new garment and puts it on an old garment. Otherwise, not only will he tear the new, but also the piece from the new garment will not match the old.

But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.

But certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?

But Jesus answered them, "And have you never read what David did when he and his men were hungry?

How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?

But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.

But they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,

But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

"Why do you keep calling me "Lord, Lord,' but don't do what I tell you?

He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep, and laid a foundation on the rock; but a great rain coming, the stream broke upon that house, and could not shake it, for it had been founded on the rock.

But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

A centurion there had a slave who was highly regarded, but who was sick and at the point of death.

But, hearing about Jesus, he sent forth unto him elders of the Jews, requesting him that he would come and bring his servant safely through.

But they, being come to Jesus, besought him diligently, saying, He is worthy to whom thou shouldest grant this,

And Jesus went with them. But already, when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent to him friends, saying to him, Lord, do not trouble thyself, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.

Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.

But when Jesus heard this he was astonished and he turned and said to the crowd that was following him, "I tell you that not even in Israel have I found faith like that."

But the men having come to him said, John the baptist has sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?

But when John's messengers had gone, He began to speak to the crowds about John: "What did you go out into the desert to gaze at? A reed that is tossed to and fro by the wind?

But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.

But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.

They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to each other:

We played the flute for you,
but you didn’t dance;
we sang a lament,
but you didn’t weep!

But wisdom is justified of all her children.

But one of the Pharisees begged him that he would eat with him. And entering into the house of the Pharisee he took his place at table;

and took her stand behind Him at His feet, continually weeping. Then she began to wet His feet with her tears, but she continued to wipe them off with the hair of her head, and she kept right on kissing His feet with affection and anointing them with the perfume.

But the Pharisee who had invited him, seeing it, spake within himself, saying, This one, if he were the prophet, would have been taking note, who and of what sort, is the woman, who is even touching him, that she is, a sinner.

But, addressing him, Jesus said: "Simon, I have something to say to you." "Pray do so, Teacher," Simon answered; and Jesus began:

but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them their debt: say, which of them therefore will love him most?

And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

But those who were at the table with him began to say among themselves, "Who is this, who even forgives sins?"

Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith [in Me] has saved you; go in peace [free from the distress experienced because of sin].”

some other seed dropped on the rock, but it withered away when it sprang up because it had no moisture;

Other seed fell in the middle of brambles, but the brambles grew up with it and choked it entirely.

But some of the seed falls into good ground, and grows up and yields a return of a hundred for one." While thus speaking, He cried aloud and said, "Listen, every one who has ears to listen with!"

But his disciples began to question him - What might, this very, parable be?

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

But the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

But those by the wayside are those who hear; then comes the devil and takes away the word from their heart that they may not believe and be saved.

But those upon the rock, those who when they hear receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a time, and in time of trial fall away.

But that that fell where the thorns were, these are they who having heard go away and are choked under cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.

So listen carefully, for whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken from him."

Then Jesus’ mother and His brothers came up toward Him, but they could not reach Him because of the crowd.

But He was told, "Your mother and brothers are standing on the edge of the crowd, and want to see you."

But he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these that hear the word of God, and do it.

But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.

and coming to him they woke him up, saying, Master, master, we perish. But he, rising up, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.

And he said to them, "Where [is] your faith?" But they were afraid [and] were astonished, saying to one another, "Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water and they obey him?"

And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.

But seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee torment me not.

Now He was [already] commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had seized him [violently] many times; and he was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles, but he would break the bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert.

but there being a numerous herd of swine feeding on the mountain, they desired he would permit them to enter into the swine, which he granted.

But they that fed them, seeing what had happened, fled, and told it to the city and to the country.

Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,

"Go back to your home, and continue to tell what great things God has done for you." But he went off and told all over the town what great things Jesus had done for him.

For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.

And a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage--and had spent on doctors all she had, but none of them had been able to cure her--

but could not be healed by any, came close behind Him and touched the hem of his garment, and immediately her flux was stopt.

And Jesus said, Who has touched me? But all denying, Peter and those with him said, Master, the crowds close thee in and press upon thee, and sayest thou, Who has touched me?

But Jesus said, Some one did touch me; for I perceived that power had gone forth from me.

but he said to her, daughter, don't be under any concern: your faith has sav'd you, go in peace.

But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.

And when he came to the house he suffered no one to go in but Peter and John and James and the father of the child and the mother.

And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.

But he, taking her by the hand, called, saying, Maiden, arise.

And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.

and he said to them make no provision for your journey: take neither staff, nor sack, nor bread, nor money; and but one coat for each.
