The book of the generations of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

And the son of Jacob was Joseph the husband of Mary, who gave birth to Jesus, whose name is Christ.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this way: when his mother Mary was going to be married to Joseph, before they came together the discovery was made that she was with child by the Holy Spirit.

And she will give birth to a son; and you will give him the name Jesus; for he will give his people salvation from their sins.

And he had no connection with her till she had given birth to a son; and he gave him the name Jesus.

Now when the birth of Jesus took place in Beth-lehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan, to be given baptism by him.

But Jesus made answer, saying to him, Let it be so now: because so it is right for us to make righteousness complete. Then he gave him baptism.

And Jesus, having been given baptism, straight away went up from the water; and, the heavens opening, he saw the Spirit of God coming down on him as a dove;

Then Jesus was sent by the Spirit into the waste land to be tested by the Evil One.

Jesus said to him, Again it is in the Writings, You may not put the Lord your God to the test.

Then said Jesus to him, Away, Satan: for it is in the Writings, Give worship to the Lord your God and be his servant only.

From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near.

And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and making well those who were ill with any disease among the people.

And it came about, when Jesus had come to the end of these words, that the people were surprised at his teaching,

And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.

And when Jesus was come into Capernaum, a certain captain came to him with a request,

And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.

And Jesus said to the captain, Go in peace; as your faith is, so let it be done to you. And the servant was made well in that hour.

And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother in bed, very ill.

Now when Jesus saw a great mass of people about him, he gave an order to go to the other side.

And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have a resting-place; but the Son of man has nowhere to put his head.

But Jesus said to him, Come after me; and let the dead take care of their dead.

And all the town came out to Jesus; and seeing him they made request that he would go away from their part of the country.

And they took to him a man stretched on a bed who had no power of moving; and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man who was ill, Son, take heart; you have forgiveness for your sins.

And Jesus, having knowledge of what was in their minds, said, Why are your thoughts evil?

And when Jesus was going from there, he saw a man whose name was Matthew, seated at the place where taxes were taken; and he said to him, Come after me. And he got up and went after him.

And it came about, when he was in the house taking food, that a number of tax-farmers and sinners came and took their places with Jesus and his disciples.

And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of the newly-married man be sad as long as he is with them? But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then will they go without food.

And Jesus got up and went after him, and so did his disciples.

But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.

And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the players with their instruments and the people making a noise,

And when Jesus went on from there, two blind men came after him, crying out, Have mercy on us, you 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.

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

And Jesus went about all the towns and small places, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and making well all sorts of disease and pain.

These twelve Jesus sent out and gave them orders, saying, Do not go among the Gentiles, or into any town of Samaria,

And it came about that when Jesus had come to the end of giving these orders to his twelve disciples, he went away from there, teaching and preaching in their towns.

And Jesus, answering, said to them, Go and give news to John of the things which you are seeing and hearing:

And when they were going away, Jesus, talking of John, said to all the people, What went you out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?

At that time Jesus made answer and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children.

At that time Jesus went through the fields on the Sabbath day; and his disciples, being in need of food, were taking the heads of grain.

And Jesus, having knowledge of this, went away from there, and a great number went after him; and he made them all well,

On that day Jesus went out of the house and was seated by the seaside.

All these things Jesus said to the people in the form of stories; and without a story he said nothing to them:

And when Jesus had come to the end of these stories he went away from there.

And they were bitter against him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour but in his country and among his family.

At that time news of Jesus came to Herod the king;

And his disciples came, and took up his body and put it in the earth; and they went and gave Jesus news of what had taken place.

Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.

But Jesus said to them, There is no need for them to go away; give them food yourselves.

But straight away Jesus said to them, Take heart; it is I, have no fear.

And he said, Come. And Peter got out of the boat, and walking on the water, went to Jesus.

And straight away Jesus put out his hand and took a grip of him, and said to him, O man of little faith, why were you in doubt?

Then there came to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,

And Jesus went away from there into the country of Tyre and Sidon.

Then Jesus, answering, said to her, O woman, great is your faith: let your desire be done. And her daughter was made well from that hour.

And Jesus went from there and came to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and took his seat there.

And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.

And Jesus says to them, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes, and some small fishes.

And Jesus said to them, Take care to have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And Jesus, seeing it, said, O you of little faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves, because you have no bread?

Now when Jesus had come into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he said, questioning his disciples, Who do men say that the Son of man is?

And Jesus made answer and said to him, A blessing on you, Simon Bar-jonah: because this knowledge has not come to you from flesh and blood, but from my Father in heaven.

From that time Jesus went on to make clear to his disciples how he would have to go up to Jerusalem, and undergo much at the hands of those in authority and the chief priests and scribes, and be put to death, and the third day come again from the dead.

Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any man would come after me, let him give up all, and take up his cross, and come after me.

And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, his brother, and makes them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves.

And Peter made answer and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you will let me, I will make here three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

And Jesus came and put his hand on them and said, Get up and have no fear.

And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, but Jesus only.

And when they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus gave them orders, saying, Let no man have word of what you have seen, till the Son of man has come again from the dead.

And Jesus, answering, said, O false and foolish generation, how long will I be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come here to me.

And Jesus gave orders to the unclean spirit, and it went out of him: and the boy was made well from that hour.

Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, Why were we not able to send it out?

And while they were going about in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man will be given up into the hands of men;

He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus said to him, What is your opinion, Simon? from whom do the kings of the earth get payment or tax? from their sons or from other people?

And when he said, From other people, Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.

In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

Jesus says to him, I say not to you, Till seven times; but, Till seventy times seven.

And it came about that after saying these words, Jesus went away from Galilee, and came into the parts of Judaea on the other side of Jordan.

But Jesus said, Let the little ones come to me, and do not keep them away: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Do not put anyone to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness,

Jesus said to him, If you have a desire to be complete, go, get money for your property, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come after me.

And Jesus said to his disciples, Truly I say to you, It is hard for a man with much money to go into the kingdom of heaven.

And Jesus, looking at them, said, With men this is not possible; but with God all things are possible.

And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that in the time when all things are made new, and the Son of man is seated in his glory, you who have come after me will be seated on twelve seats, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

And when Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples on one side, and said to them,

But Jesus made answer and said, You have no idea what you are requesting. Are you able to take of the cup which I am about to take?

But Jesus said to them, You see that the rulers of the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.

And two blind men seated by the wayside, when they had the news that Jesus was going by, gave a loud cry, saying, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.

And Jesus, stopping, sent for them, and said, What would you have me do to you?

And Jesus, being moved with pity, put his fingers on their eyes: and straight away they were able to see, and went after him.

And when they were near Jerusalem, and had come to Beth-phage, to the Mountain of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,

And the disciples went and did as Jesus had given them orders,

And the people said, This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.

And Jesus went into the Temple and sent out all who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those trading in doves.

Have you any idea what these are saying? And Jesus said to them, Yes: have you not seen in the Writings, From the lips of children and babies at the breast you have made your praise complete?

And Jesus in answer said to them, Truly I say to you, If you have faith, without doubting, not only may you do what has been done to the fig-tree, but even if you say to this mountain, Be taken up and put into the sea, it will be done.

And Jesus said to them in answer, I will put one question to you, and if you give me the answer, I will say by what authority I do these things.

Which of the two did his father's pleasure? They say, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that tax-farmers and loose women are going into the kingdom of God before you.
