and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David the king, and David had Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah.

but Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was inclined to break off the contract with her privately;

and when he was thinking on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph thou Son of David, scruple not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

and he knew her not, till she brought forth her Son the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.

saying, Where is the king of the Jews that is born here? for we have seen his star in the east and are come to worship Him.

saying, In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel bewailing her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

And this John had his clothes of camels hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins, and his food was locusts and wild honey.

but I tell you, that whosoever looketh on a woman, so as to lust after her, hath already debauched her in his heart.

And it has been said, whosoever would put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce:

but I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except on account of whoredom, tempteth her to commit adultery; and if any man marry her that is divorced, he committeth adultery.

for thou canst not make one hair of it white or black:

And Jesus said to the centurion, Go, and be it unto thee as thou hast believed. And his servant was healed in that very hour.

and He did but touch her hand, and the fever left her; and she rose up and waited on them.

As He was speaking these things to them, behold there came a ruler and worshipped Him, saying, My daughter is at the point of death: but come, I pray Thee, and put thy hand upon her, and she shall live:

And Jesus turning about, and seeing her, said, Daughter be comforted, thy faith hath cured thee. And from that time the woman was healed.)

But when the people were put out, He went in and took hold of her hand, and the damsel rose up.

What I say to you in private, declare ye in public: and what ye hear as in the ear, preach ye as from the house-tops.

For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law:

And Jesus said to them in answer, Go and tell John the things which ye hear and see:

the blind are restored to sight, and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear; the dead are raised to life, and the poor have the gospel preached to them:

He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

the Son of man came eating and drinking like other men, and they call Him a gluttonous man, and a wine-bibber, and a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified by her children.

But I tell you, that a greater than the temple is here:

nor cry aloud, nor shall any one hear his voice in the streets:

So that the men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold a greater than Jonas is here.

The queen of the South too, shall rise up in the day of judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold a greater than Solomon is here.

and somebody said to Him, "Here are thy mother and thy brethren standing without, desiring to speak to thee."

He that hath ears to hear, let him hear."

for this reason I speak to them in parables; because though they see, they will not see; and though they hear, they will not hear, nor understand.

And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, Ye shall hear by the hearing of the ear, and not understand; and in seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: for the heart of this people is grown stupid,

and their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; least they should see at all with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear:

for indeed I tell you, that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see the things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear what ye hear, and have not heard them.

Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. When any one heareth the word of the gospel-kingdom,

But the righteous shall then shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

and his sisters, are they not all here among us? from whence then hath this man all these things?

for John said to Him, It is not lawful for thee to have her: and he would have put him to death,

that he promised her with an oath to give her whatever she would ask:

and she, being before instructed by her mother, said, Give me here in a dish the head of John the baptist:

at which the king was distressed, but because of his oath, and of those who sat at table with him, he ordered it to be given her;

and his head was brought in a dish, and given to the young princess, who carried it to her mother:

And they said, we have nothing here but five loaves and two fishes:

And He called the multitude to Him, and said unto them, Hear and understand it:

But he answered her not a word: and his disciples came and intreated Him, saying, Send her away, for she crieth importunately after us.

Then Jesus answering, said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it therefore unto thee as thou desirest. And her daughter was cured from that very hour.

And I tell you of a truth, there be some of those standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they have seen the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Then Peter said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou pleasest, let us make three tabernacles here, one for Thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

And as he was speaking, lo a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him.

Bring him here to me. And when Jesus rebuked him, the demon departed out of him, and the child was cured from that time.

They say unto Him, Why then did Moses order a bill of divorce to be given, and so to put her away?

and I tell you, that whosoever putteth away his wife, except for whoredom, and marrieth another, committeth adultery; and he that marrieth her so put away committeth adultery.

For the gospel-kingdom is like the master of a family, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard:

and going out about the third hour he saw others standing in the market-place doing nothing,

And going out again about the sixth and ninth hour he did in like manner.

And going out about the eleventh hour, he found others standing without work, and saith to them, Why stand ye here all the day doing nothing?

Now when evening was come, the owner of the vineyard saith to his steward, Call the work-men and pay them their hire, beginning from the last even to the first.

And when those came who were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every one a penny:

saying, These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, who have borne the burthen and heat of the day.

Then the mother of Zebedee's sons came to Him, together with her two sons, falling down before Him, and presenting a petition to Him.

And He said unto her, What dost thou desire? She saith unto Him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on the left in thy kingdom.

saying unto them, Go into the village over-against you, and ye will find directly an ass tied and a colt with her: loose them and bring them to me:

but when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonders that He wrought, and the children crying out in the temple, Hosanna to the Son of David, they were vexed to the heart, and said to Him, Dost thou hear what these say?

Hear another parable, There was a certain man, a master of a family, that planted a vineyard, and made a fence about it, and put a wine-press in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and travelled abroad.

But when the husbandmen saw the Son, they said among themselves, This is the heir, come, let us kill him, and seize on his inheritance:

Friend, how camest thou in here without a wedding-garment? and he was struck speechless.

therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

But Jesus said unto them, Do ye see all these things? Verily I tell you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be demolished.

And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, but be not troubled; for all these must indeed come to pass, but the end is not yet.

Then if any shall say to you, Behold here is the Messiah, or there; believe it not:

But of THAT day and hour knoweth no one, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only:

Watch therefore, for ye know not at what hour your Lord cometh:

but this ye know, that if the master of the house had known at what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broke open: therefore be ye also ready;

the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doth not expect him, and in an hour which he knows not,

Verily I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached, in the whole world, what she hath done shall also be spoken of for a memorial of her.

Then went Jesus with them to a place called Gethsemane, and saith to the disciples, Sit here, while I go there and pray:

and saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful even unto death, stay here and watch with me.

And coming to the disciples, he findeth them asleep, and saith to Peter, what! could ye not watch with me one hour?

Then He cometh to his disciples and saith, Are ye sleeping still and taking your rest? behold, the hour is come, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

Then saith Pilate to Him, Dost thou not hear how many things they witness against thee?

Now from the sixth hour to the ninth there was darkness over all the land.

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani," that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

He is not here, for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay:

And John was clothed with camels hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins, and he lived upon locusts and wild honey: and he preached,

And Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever: and they immediately told Him of her:

and He came to her, and taking her by the hand raised her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she waited upon them.

And He said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

that in seeing they may see and not perceive, and in hearing they may hear and not understand, least they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them.

And in like manner, they that are sown as on stony grounds are such, as when they hear the word,

And those that are sown as among thorns, are these: such as hear the word indeed,

And these are they who are like seed sown on good ground: such as hear the word, and receive it; and bring forth fruit, some thirty-fold, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

If any one hath ears to hear, let him hear.

And mind what ye hear: for with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you; and more shall be imparted to you that are observant:

And in many such parables spake He the word to them, as they had ability to hear it: but spake not to them without a parable.

and earnestly intreated Him, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death, I beseech thee that thou wouldst come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed, and she will live.

And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt within herself that she was healed of the disorder.

But the woman being afraid and trembling, as knowing what had been done in her, came and prostrated herself to Him, and told Him all the truth:

and He said to her, Daughter, thy faith has saved thee; go in peace, and be healed of thy disorder.

and taking hold of her hand, He saith unto her, Talitha, cumi, which is, being interpreted, Damsel, (I say unto thee) arise:

And He strictly charged them, that no one should know it: and bid them give her something to eat.
