And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.

So they went. When he went out again about noon and three o'clock that afternoon, he did the same thing.

And about five o'clock that afternoon he went out and found others standing around, and said to them, 'Why are you standing here all day without work?'

They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.

And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.

that These, the last, wrought one hour, and thou didst make them equal to us, who were bearing the burden of the day -- and the heat.

Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.

Is it against the law for me to do what I want with my own money? Or, is it that your eye is envious because I choose to be so generous?'

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

But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.

And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

It must not be like that among you. On the contrary, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

That's the way it is with the Son of Man. He did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many people."

And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David.

And the multitude rebuked them, that they should hold their peace: but they cried out the more, saying, Lord, have mercy on us, thou son of David.

And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?

They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

saying unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them , and bring them unto me.

and if any one may say anything to you, ye shall say, that the lord hath need of them, and immediately he will send them.'

All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

And the multitude said: This is Jesus the prophet, that is from Nazareth of Galilee.

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,

and they said to him, 'Hearest thou what these say?' And Jesus saith to them, 'Yes, did ye never read, that, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings Thou didst prepare praise?'

then leaving them, he went out of the city to Bethany, where he stay'd that night.

Seeing a lone fig tree at the roadside, He went to it and found nothing but leaves on it; and He said to it, “Never again will fruit come from you.” And at once the fig tree withered.

When the disciples saw it, they were astonished and asked, “How is it that the fig tree has withered away all at once?”

"I solemnly tell you," said Jesus, "that if you have an unwavering faith, you shall not only perform such a miracle as this of the fig-tree, but that even if you say to this mountain, 'Be thou lifted up and hurled into the sea,' it shall be done;

and everything, whatever it be, that you ask for in your prayers, if you have faith, you shall obtain."

and Jesus answered them, let me ask you one question, if ye answer me that, I shall likewise satisfy you by what authority I do these things.

And if we say, 'From men,' we are afraid of the crowd, for they all hold that John was a prophet."

He went to the second son and said the same thing. That son replied, '[Yes], sir, I will,' [but] then did not go.

Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

Hear another parable: There was a man that was a householder, who planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.

And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

But after that he sent his son to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.

But when the tenants saw the son, they said among themselves, 'This is his heir, come on, let us kill him, and get all that is coming to him!'

They said to Him, “He will put those despicable men to a miserable end, and rent out the vineyard to other tenants [of good character] who will pay him the proceeds at the proper seasons.”

Jesus says to them, Have ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone: this is of the Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes?

Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you and shall be given to a nation producing the fruits of it.

And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.

And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.

and would have seized Him, but that they were afraid of the people; because they took Him for a prophet.

The kingdom of heaven is like a king that made a marriage feast for his son;

And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

Again he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them that are bidden, Behold, I have made ready my dinner; my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come to the marriage feast.

But they paid no attention [and] went away--this one to his own field, that one to his business.

When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.

Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they that were bidden were not worthy.

So, his servants went out to the highways and gathered in all those who could be found, both bad and good, so that the wedding [reception] was full of guests.

And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man that had not put on a wedding-robe.

"'My friend,' he said, 'how is it that you came in here without a wedding robe?'

Then the king said to the servants, 'Tie him up {hand and foot} [and] throw him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!'

Then the Pharisees went {and consulted} so that they could entrap him with a statement.

And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.

They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.

When they heard that, they marveled, and left him and went their way.

The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,

"Teacher, Moses said [in Deut. 25:5] that when a man dies without having had any children, his brother must marry his widow and father children by her, who would [then] be considered his [dead] brother's.

But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

And when the people heard that, they were astonished at his doctrine.

But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.

And one of them, who was a lawyer, asked him a question, that he might tempt him, saying:

This is the first and that chief commandment.

A second one, similar to it is [Lev. 19:18], 'You must love your neighbor the same way that you love yourself.'

Jesus asked them, “How is it then that David by the inspiration of the Spirit, calls Him ‘Lord,’ saying,

And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

They tie up heavy loads that are hard to carry and put them on people’s shoulders, but they themselves aren’t willing to lift a finger to move them.

their phylacterys are broader, and the fringes of their garments are larger than those of others:

But ye shall not suffer yourselves to be called Rabbi, for one is your master, that is, to wit, Christ, and all ye are brethren.

Do not be called leaders; for One is your Leader, that is, Christ.

But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

Woe be unto you, scribes and Pharisees, for ye devour widows' houses: and that, under a colour of praying long prayers, wherefore ye shall receive greater damnation.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Woe unto you, ye blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.

Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?

And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.

Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?

He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.

And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.

And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

Alas for you, Teachers of the Law and Pharisees, hypocrites that you are! You pay tithes on mint, fennel, and caraway seed, and have neglected the weightier matters of the Law--justice, mercy, and good faith. These last you ought to have put into practice, without neglecting the first.

Ye blind guides, that strain out the gnat, and swallow the camel!

Alas for you, Teachers of the Law and Pharisees, hypocrites that you are! You clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside they are filled with the results of greed and self-indulgence.

Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which look beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and everything unclean.

Alas for you, Teachers of the Law and Pharisees, hypocrites that you are! You build the tombs of the Prophets, and decorate the monuments of religious men,

Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

Fill up, then, the [allotted] measure of the guilt of your fathers’ sins.
