And Judah begat Perez and Zarah of Tamah, and Perez begat Hezron, and Hezron begat Ram;

And forth went the report of him into all Syria; and they brought unto him all who were sick, with divers diseases and tortures, distressed, demonized and lunatic and paralyzed, - and he cured them.

Again, ye have heard that it was said, to them of olden time, Thou shalt not swear falsely, - but shalt render unto the Lord, thine oaths.

But, I, tell you - not to swear, at all: Neither by heaven, because it is the, throne of God, -

Nor, by thine own head, mayest thou swear, because thou art not able to make, one hair, white or black.

And he spake unto them many things, in parables, saying: Lo! the sower went forth to sow, -

And the servants of the householder, coming near, said to him, - Sir! was it not, good seed, thou didst sow in thy field? Whence then hath it, darnel?

And, he, answering, said, I, sir! and went not;

Alas for you, blind guides! that say - Whosoever shall swear by the Temple, it is, nothing, but, whosoever shall swear by the gold of the Temple, is bound:

And, whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is, nothing, but, whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, is bound:

Moreover ye will be sure to be hearing of wars, and rumours of wars: Mind! be not alarmed, for it must needs happen, - but, not yet, is, the end;

saying - Sir! we have been put in mind that, that deceiver, said, while yet living, - After three days, will I, arise.

Hearken! Lo! the sower went forth to sow;

The sower, soweth the word;

The oath which he sware unto Abraham our father, To grant us,

this enrolment, first was made while Cyrenius was governor of Syria:

The sower went forth to sow his seed, - and, as he sowed, some, indeed, fell beside the pathway, and was trodden down; and, the birds of heaven, devoured it.

And, he, answering, saith unto him - Sir! let it alone this year also, until such time as I dig about it, and throw in manure, -

She saith unto him - Sir! not even a bucket, hast thou, - and, the well, is, deep: - Whence, then, hast thou the living water?

The woman saith unto him - Sir! give me this water, that I thirst not, neither be coming hither to draw.

The woman saith unto him - Sir! I perceive that, a prophet, art, thou: -

For, herein, doth the saying, hold good, - One, is the sower, and, another, is the reaper.

The courtier saith unto him - Sir! come down, ere my child die!

The sick man answered him - Sir! I have, no man, that, as soon as the water hath been troubled, might thrust me into the pool; but, while, I, am coming, another, before me, goeth down.

They said, therefore, unto him - Sir! Evermore, give us this bread.

He answered and said- And, who, is he, Sir, that I may believe on him?

And, he, said - I believe, Sir! and worshipped him.

These, therefore, came unto Philip, him who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, - and were requesting him, saying - Sir! We desire to see, Jesus.

But, because, these things, I have told you, sorrow, hath filled your heart.

Jesus saith unto her - Woman! why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou? She, supposing he was, the gardener, saith unto him - Sir! If, thou, hast borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him; and, I, will take him away.

Unto whom he also presented himself alive, after he had suffered, by many sure tokens, throughout forty days making himself visible unto them, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God.

writing through their hand - The Apostles and the Elder Brethren, unto the brethren throughout Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, who are from among the nations, wish joy!

and proceeded to pass through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.

Paul, however, still further abiding a good many days with the brethren, bidding them adieu, set sail for Syria; and, with him, Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.

and, spending three months, when a plot was laid against him by the Jews, as he was about to sail to Syria, he determined to turn back through Macedonia.

And, sighting Cyprus, and leaving it behind to the left, we held on our voyage to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for, there, the ship was to discharge her cargo.

But, when they had been, long without food, then, Paul, standing in the midst of them, said - Ye ought, indeed, Sir! yielding to me, not to have sailed away from Crete, to get this damage and loss. --

And, without becoming weak in his faith, he attentively considered his own body, already deadened - he being a hundred years old, the deadening also of Sarah's womb;

For, of promise, is this word - According to this season, will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.

And so, our hope, is sure in your behalf, - knowing that, - as ye are sharers of the sufferings, so, also of the encouragement.

For lo! this very thing - the being caused to grieve, according to God: - what manner of diligence it wrought out in you, - nay! defence, - nay! sore displeasure, - nay! fear, - nay! earnest desire, - nay! jealousy, - nay! avenging. In every way, ye shewed yourselves to be, chaste, in the matter.

Now, he that supplieth seed to the sower, and bread for eating, will supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and cause to grow your fruits of righteousness:

After that, I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia,

And, in fact, he was sick, nigh unto death; but, God, had mercy on him, - and, not on him only, but, on me also, lest, sorrow upon sorrow, I should have.

Rooted, and being built up, in him, and making yourselves sure in your faith, even as ye have been taught, - surpassing therein with thanksgiving.

Wherefore I was sore vexed with this generation, and said, Always err they in their heart; - howbeit, they, learned not my ways:

So I sware in mine anger - they shall not enter into my rest! -

But, with whom, was be sore vexed forty years? Was it not with them who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the desert?

But, unto whom, sware he, that they should not enter into his rest, - save unto them who were obstinate?

For we who have believed, are to enter into the rest, according as he hath said - So I sware in mine anger, They shall not enter into my rest; And yet, the works, from the foundation of the world, had been brought into existence,

For, when to Abraham God made promise, seeing he had no one greater by whom to swear, He sware, by himself, -

For, men, by the greater one, swear, and, with them, an end of all gainsaying by way of confirmation is, the oath:

For, they, indeed, apart from oath-taking, have been made priests, but, he, with an oath-taking, through him that was saying unto him - The Lord sware, and will not regret, - Thou, art a priest, age-abidingly

By faith, even Sarah herself, received power for founding a seed, even beyond the season of life's prime, - seeing that, faithful, she reckoned, him that had promised;

But, no discipline, for the present, indeed, seemeth to be of joy, but of sorrow: afterwards, however - to them who thereby have been trained, it yieldeth peaceful fruit, of righteousness.

But, before all things, my brethren, do not swear, - either by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your Yea be yea, and your Nay nay, - lest, under judgment, ye fall.

As, Sarah, was obedient unto Abraham, calling him, lord, - whose children ye have become - so long as ye are doing good, and not bringing yourselves into fear of any single cause of alarm.

and sware, by him that liveth unto the ages of ages, who created heaven, and the things that are therein, and the earth, and the things that are therein, and the sea, and the things that are therein,Delay, no longer, shall there be;
