And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth, a city of Galilee, and was baptised of John in Jordan.

After that John was taken, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

And they marveled at his learning. For he taught them as one that had power with him, and not as the scribes did.

And there was in their synagogue, a man vexed with an unclean spirit, and that cried

saying, "Let me be: what have we to do with thou, Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee, what thou art, thou art even that holy man promised of God."

And they were all amazed, insomuch that they demanded one of another among themselves, saying, "What thing is this? What new doctrine is this? For he commandeth the foul spirits with power, and they obey him."

And at even, when the sun was down, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils,

and he healed many that were sick of divers diseases. And he cast out many devils; and suffered them not to speak, because they knew him.

And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

And he said unto them, "Let us go in to the next towns, that I may preach there also: for truly I came out for that purpose.

and said unto him, "See that thou say nothing to any man, but get thee hence and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimonial unto them."

But he, as soon as he was departed, began to tell many things and to publish the deed, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places, and they came to him from every quarter.

After a few days he entered into Capernaum again, and it was noised that he was in a house:

And anon many gathered together, insomuch that now there was no room to receive them: no, not so much as about the door. And he preached the word unto them.

And there came unto him, that brought one sick of the palsy, borne of four men:

And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit, that they so reasoned in themselves, he said unto them, "Why think ye such things in your hearts?

That ye may know that the son of man hath power in earth to forgive sins," he spake unto the sick of the palsy,

And by and by he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all: insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God saying, "We never saw it on this fashion."

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat at meat also with Jesus and his disciples. For there were many that followed him.

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, "How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?"

When Jesus heard that, he said unto them, "The whole have no need of the Physician: but the sick. I came not to call the righteous, but the sinners to repentance."

And it chanced that he went through the corn fields on the Sabbath day; and his disciples, as they went on their way, began to pluck the ears of corn.

And the Pharisees said unto him, "Behold, why do they on the Sabbath day that which is not lawful?"

And he said to them, "Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was a hungered both he and they that were with him?

and they watched him, to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

And the Pharisees departed, and straightway gathered a counsel, with them that belonged to Herod, against him: that they might destroy him.

and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan: and they that dwelled about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude: which when they had heard what things he did, came unto him.

And he commanded his disciples, that a ship should wait on him, because of the people, lest they should throng him.

For he had healed many, insomuch that they pressed upon him, for to touch him, as many as had plagues.

And he straightly charged them that they should not utter him.

And he ordained the twelve that they should be with him, and that he might send them to preach.

And that they might have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out devils.

And they came unto house, and the people assembled together again, so greatly that they had not leisure so much as to eat bread.

And when they that longed unto him heard of it, they went out to hold him. For they said, "He is too fervent."

For if a realm be divided against itself, that realm cannot endure.

Or if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot continue:

No man can enter into a strong man's house, and take away his goods, except he first bind that strong man and then spoil his house.

but he that blasphemeth the holy ghost shall never have forgiveness: but is in danger of eternal damnation."

And he began again to teach by the seaside. And there gathered together unto him much people, so greatly that he entered in to a ship, and sat in the sea, and all the people was by the seaside on the shore:

and it fortuned as he sowed, that some fell by the wayside, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

And some fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, so that it gave no fruit.

And some fell upon good ground: and did yield fruit that sprang and grew: and brought forth some thirty fold, some sixty fold, and some a hundred fold."

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

And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked him of the similitude.

And he said unto them, "To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: But unto them that are without, shall all things be done in similitudes:

that when they see, they shall see, and not discern: and when they hear they shall hear, and not understand: lest at any time they should turn, and their sins should be forgiven them."

And they that are by the wayside, where the word is sown, are they to whom as soon as they have heard it, cometh immediately Satan and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

And likewise, they that are sown on the stony ground: which when they have heard the word, at once they receive it with gladness;

And these are they that are sown among the thorns; which are such as hear the word of God,

And those that were sown in good ground, are they that hear the word and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirty fold some sixty fold, some a hundred fold."

For there is nothing so privy, that shall not be opened: neither so secret, but that it shall come abroad.

And he said unto them, "Take heed what ye hear. With what measure ye mete, with the same shall it be measured unto you again. And unto you that hear, shall more be given.

For unto him that hath, shall it be given: And from him that hath not, shall be taken away, even that he hath."

For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself, first the blade, then the ears, after that full corn in the ears.

And as soon as the fruit is brought forth, anon he thrusteth in the sickle because that harvest is come."

It is like a grain of mustard seed, which when it is sown in the earth, is the least of all seeds that be in the earth:

But after that it is sown it groweth up, and is greatest of all herbs: and beareth great branches so that the fowls of the air may dwell under the shadow of it."

And there arose a great storm of wind, and dashed the waves into the ship, so that it was full.

And he was in the stern asleep on a pillow. And they awoke him, and said to him, "Master, carest thou not that we perish?"

and he said unto them, "Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith?"

because that when he was often bound with fetters and chains, he plucked the chains asunder, and brake the fetters in pieces: Neither could any man tame him.

and cried with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with thee, Jesus the son of the most highest God? I require thee in the name of God, that thou torment me not."

And he prayed him instantly, that he would not send them away out of the country.

and all the devils besought him saying, "Send us into the herd of swine, that we may enter into them."

And they came out to Jesus, and they saw him that was vexed with the fiend, and had the legion, sit: both clothed and in his right mind; and were afraid.

And they that saw it told them, how it had happened unto him that was possessed with the devil: and also of the swine.

And they began to pray him, that he would depart from their coasts.

And when he was come into the ship, he that had the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

and besought him greatly saying, "My daughter lieth at point of death, I would thou wouldst come and lay thy hand on her, that she might be safe and live."

and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and felt none amendment at all: But waxed worse and worse.

And straight way her fountain of blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the plague.

And Jesus immediately felt, in himself, the virtue that went out of him, and turned him round about in the press, and said, "Who touched my clothes?"

And he looked round about, for to see her that had done that thing.

As soon as Jesus heard that word spoken, he said unto the ruler of the Synagogue, "Be not afraid, only believe."

And he came unto the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, and saw the wondering and them that wept and wailed greatly;

And they laughed him to scorn. Then he put them all out, and took the father and the mother of the maiden, and them that were with him, and entered in where the maiden lay;

And he charged them straightly that no man should know of it; and commanded to give her meat.

And when the Sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue. And many that heard him were astonished, and said, "From whence hath he these things? And what wisdom is this that is given unto him? And such virtues that are wrought by his hands?

Is not this that carpenter: Mary's son, the brother of James, and Joseph and of Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?" And they were offended by the reason of him.

And Jesus said unto them, "A prophet is not despised but in his own country, and among his own kin, and among them that are of the same household."

And he marveled at their unbelief. And he went about by the towns that lay on every side, teaching.

And commanded them, that they should take nothing unto their Journey, save a rod only: Neither scrip, neither bread, neither money in their purses:

but should be shod with sandals. And that they should not put on two coats.

And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust that is under your feet, for a witness unto them. I say verily unto you, it shall be easier for Sodom and Gomorra, at the day of judgment, than for that city."

And they went out and preached, that they should repent:

and they cast out many devils. And they anointed many that were sick with oil and healed them.

For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man, and a holy, and gave him reverence; And when he heard him he did many things, and heard him gladly.

And the daughter of the said Herodias came in and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat at board also. Then the king said unto the maiden, "Ask of me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee."

And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, "I will, that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John Baptist."

And he said unto them, "Come ye apart into the wilderness, and rest awhile." For there were many comers and goers, and that they had no leisure for so much as to eat.

let them depart, that they may go into the country round about, and into the towns, and buy them bread: for they have nothing to eat."

And they that ate were about five thousand men.

and ran forth throughout all the region round about, and began to carry about in beds all that were sick, to place where they heard tell that he was there.

And whithersoever he entered into the towns, or cities, or villages, they laid their sick in the streets, and prayed him, that they might touch and it were but the edge of his vesture. And as many as touched him were safe.

And when they saw certain of his disciples eat bread with common hands, that is to say, with unwashen hands, they complained.

But ye say, 'A man shall say to his father or mother, Corban; which is, that thou desirest of me, to help thee with, is given to God.'

There is nothing without a man that can defile him when it entereth into him, but those things which proceed out of him are those which defile the man.

and he said unto them, "Are ye so without understanding? Do ye not yet perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into a man, it cannot defile him,

because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly: and goeth out into the draught that purgeth out all meats."

And he said, "That defileth a man which cometh out of a man.
