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 saith unto Him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down; for it is written, He will give his angels charge concerning thee, and they shall bear thee up as in their hands, least at any time thou shouldst dash thy foot against a stone:

but Jesus said unto him, it is also written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

then Jesus saith unto him, Be gone, Satan; for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God,

Therefore, if thou bring thine offering to the altar, and there remembrest that thy brother hath any complaint against thee;

leave thy gift there before the altar, and go and first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

And therefore if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one part of thee perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell:

and if thy right hand cause thee to offend, cut it off and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy limbs should perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King: neither shalt thou swear by thy head,

but I say unto you, Set not yourselves against him that injures you, but if any one smite thee on thy right cheek, rather turn to him the other also:

and if any one would go to law with thee, to take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also, rather than strive with him:

Ye have heard, that it has been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy:

But when thou givest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doth:

that thine alms may be in secret, and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will himself reward thee openly.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret, and thy Father who seeth in secret, will reward thee openly.

"Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done, as in heaven so also upon earth;

But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head and wash thy face;

that thou mayst not appear unto men to fast, but to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee openly.

The eye is the light of the body: if therefore thine eye be clear, thy whole body will be light;

but if thine eye be bad, thy whole body will be dark. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

And why dost thou look at the splinter in thy brother's eye, but takest no notice of the beam in thine own eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me take the chaff out of thine eye, and behold, there is a beam in thine own eye?

Thou hypocrite, first get the beam out of thine own eye; and then thou wilt see how to take the splinter out of thy brother's eye.

many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name, and in thy name have cast out devils, and in thy name have wrought many miracles? and I will then declare unto them,

and behold, they brought to Him one that had the palsy laid on a couch: and Jesus seeing their faith said to the paralytic, Take heart my son, for thy sins are forgiven thee.

For which is easier? To say, thy sins be forgiven thee? or to say, rise up and walk?

but that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, Arise (saith He then to the paralytic) and take up thy couch, and go away to thy house.

Then also come to Him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the pharisees fast much, but thy disciples do not fast?

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.)

For this is he, of whom it is written, "Behold I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee."

even so, Father, for it was thy good pleasure that so it should be."

And when the pharisees saw it they said to Him, See, thy disciples are doing what is not lawful for them to do on the sabbath.

but I tell you, that of every idle word, which men shall speak, they shall give an account in the day of judgement; for by thy words thou shalt be justified,

and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

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

So the servants came to their master, and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? whence then are the tares?

Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat.

For God commanded saying, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, He that revileth father or mother, let him be put to death:

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 brought him to thy disciples, and they could not heal him.

If then thy hand or thy foot cause thee to offend, cut them off and cast them from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire:

And if thy brother trespass against thee, go and expostulate with him alone; if he hearken to thee, thou hast gained thy brother:

Then his lord called for him again, and said to him, Thou wicked slave, I forgave thee all that vast debt at thy request,

and oughtest not thou to have had compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had on thee?

He saith unto Him, Which? And Jesus answered, Thou shalt do no murther, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and mother;

and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thy self.

Jesus replied, If thou wouldst be perfect, go, sell thy estate, and give it to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come and follow me.

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.

behold, thy king cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, even a colt the fole of an ass.

And Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind: this is the first and great command.

Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

saying, The Lord said unto my Lord, "Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?"

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!

And when He was got to the mount of olives, the disciples came to Him in private and said, Tell us when these things shall be, and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world.

and his lord said to him, Well done, my good and trusty servant, thou hast been faithful in a few things, I will set thee over many, enter into thy master's joy.

his lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful in a few things, I will set thee over many, enter into the joy of thy lord.

and I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the ground; behold, there is thine own:

And He said, Go into the city, to such a man, and tell him, The master saith, my time is near, I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples: and the disciples did as Jesus ordered them,

And going away again, the second time He prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass from me, unless I drink it, thy will be done.

Then said Jesus to him, Put up thy sword into it's place; for they that take the sword shall perish by the sword:

Verily thou also art one of them, for thy speech discovers thee:

As it is written in the prophets, "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee:"

and saith unto him, See thou tell no man: but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy purification what Moses has commanded, for a testimony to them.

And Jesus, seeing their faith, saith to him that had the palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.

Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Thy sins are forgiven; or to say, Rise, take up thy couch, and walk?

I say unto thee (saith He to the paralytic,) Arise, and take up thy couch, and go thy way to thine own house.

And as the disciples of John, and of the pharisees used to fast, they came to Him, saying, Why do the disciples of John and of the pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?

and there was a multitude sitting about Him, and they said to Him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren are without inquiring for thee.

And He asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

but Jesus did not permit him; but saith to him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee:

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

While He was yet speaking, there came some from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, Thy daughter is dead, why dost thou trouble the Master any more?

For John had said to Herod, it is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.

Then the pharisees and the scribes ask Him, Why do not thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the ancients, but eat without washing their hands?

for Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, He that revileth father or mother, let him be put to death:

And He said unto her, For this saying, go thy way, the demon is gone out of thy daughter.

and wherever it seizeth him, it convulseth him; and he fometh, and gnasheth his teeth, and thus he pineth away: and I desired thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.

But John answered Him and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, who doth not follow us; and we forbade him, because he followeth not us.

And if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands, to go into hell, into the fire that will never be extinguished;

And if thy foot cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the inextinguishable fire;

Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour thy father and thy mother.

they said unto Him, Grant that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy glory.

And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way, thy faith has cured thee. And he immediately recovered his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.

and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:" this is the first or chief commandment,

and the second is like it, even this, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:" there is no other commandment greater than these.

for David himself said by the holy Spirit, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

And a little after, they that stood by, said to Peter again, Thou art certainly one of them: for thou art a Galilean, and thy speech is like theirs.

but the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias; for thy prayer is heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John:

and behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS:

thy cousin Elisabeth also hath conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month with her that was called barren;

Then Mary said, Behold the servant of the Lord, may it be unto me according to thy word. So the angel departed from her.

and she cried out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb:

for behold, as soon as the voice of thy salutation reached my ears, the child in my womb leaped for joy:

and they said to her, There is none of thy relations of this name.

and blessed God, and said, "Now, Lord, thou dismissest thy servant in peace, according to thy word;

for mine eyes have seen thy salvation, which thou hast provided in the sight of all people,

and the glory of thy people Israel."

(and a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also) that the thoughts of many hearts may be discovered.
