All this happened in fulfilment of what the Lord said through the prophet,

They said, "At Bethlehem in Judea, for this is what the prophet wrote:

to fulfil what the Lord said by the prophet, "I called my son from Egypt."

in fulfilment of what was said by the prophet Isaiah,

For if you love only those who love you, what reward can you expect? Do not the very tax-collectors do that?

And if you are polite to your brothers and no one else, what is there remarkable in that? Do not the very heathen do that?

But when you give to charity, your own left hand must not know what your right hand is doing,

so that your charity may be secret, and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you.

But when you pray, go into your own room, and shut the door, and pray to your Father who is unseen, and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you.

You must not be like them. For God, who is your Father, knows what you need before you ask him.

so that no one may see that you are fasting, except your Father who is unseen, and your Father who sees what is secret, will reward you.

Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about life, wondering what you will have to eat or drink, or about your body, wondering what you will have to wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body than clothes?

So do not worry and say, 'What shall we have to eat?' or 'What shall we have to drink?' or 'What shall we have to wear?'

"Do not give what is sacred to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, or they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you in pieces.

Ask, and what you ask will be given you. Search, and you will find what you search for. Knock, and the door will open to you.

So if you, bad as you are, know enough to give your children what is good, how much more surely will your Father in heaven give what is good to those who ask him for it!

And the men were amazed and said, "What kind of man is this? For the very winds and sea obey him!"

And they suddenly screamed out, "What do you want of us, you Son of God? Have you come here before the appointed time to torture us?"

Jesus knew what they were thinking, and he said, "Why do you have such wicked thoughts in your hearts?

You must go and learn what the saying means, 'It is mercy, not sacrifice, that I care for.' I did not come to invite the pious but the irreligious."

Then he touched their eyes and said, "You shall have what your faith expects."

But when they give you up, you must have no anxiety about how to speak or what to say, for you will be told at the very moment what you ought to say,

What I tell you in the dark you must say in the light, and what you hear whispered in your ear, you must proclaim from the housetops.

Now when John heard in prison of what the Christ was doing, he sent by his disciples

Jesus answered, "Go and report to John what you hear and see.

But as they were going away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John. "What was it that you went out into the desert to look at? A reed swaying in the wind?

Then what did you go out there to see? A man luxuriously dressed? Men who dress in that way you find in the palaces of kings.

But to what can I compare this present age? It is like children sitting about in the bazaars and calling out to their playmates,

But he said to them, "Did you never read what David did, when he and his companions were hungry?

But if you knew what the saying means, 'It is mercy, not sacrifice, that I care for,' you would not have condemned men who are not guilty.

??n fulfilment of what was said by the prophet Isaiah,

But he knew what they were thinking, and he said to them, "Any kingdom that is disunited is on the way to destruction, and any city or household that is disunited cannot last.

You brood of snakes! how can you, bad as you are, utter anything good? For the mouth says only what the heart is full of.

A good man, out of the good he has accumulated, brings out things that are good, and a bad man, out of what he has accumulated that is bad, brings out things that are bad.

For people who have will have more given to them, and will be plentifully supplied, and from people who have nothing even what they have will be taken away.

For I tell you, many prophets and upright men have longed to see what you see, and could not see it, and to hear what you hear, and could not hear it.

When anyone hears the teaching of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and robs him of the seed that has been sown in his mind. That is what was sown along the path.

And what was sown upon the rocky soil means the man who hears the message and at once accepts it joyfully,

And what was sown among the thorns means the man who listens to the message, and then the worries of the time and the pleasure of being rich choke the message out, and it yields nothing.

And what was sown in good ground means the man who listens to the message and understands it, and yields one a hundred, and another sixty, and another thirty-fold."

to fulfil what was said by the prophet, "I will open my mouth in figures, I will utter things that have been hidden since the creation."

So just as the weeds are gathered up and burned, this is what will happen at the close of the age;

That is what will happen at the close of the age. The angels will go out and remove the wicked from among the upright,

But he answered, "Why do you too break God's command for the sake of what has been handed down to you?

does not have to provide for his father.' So you have nullified what God has said, for the sake of what has been handed down to you.

"Listen to this, and grasp it! It is not what goes into a man's mouth that pollutes him; it is what comes out of his mouth that pollutes a man."

Then Jesus answered, "You have great faith! You shall have what you want." And her daughter was cured from that time.

For what good will it do a man if he gains the whole world but parts with his life? What can a man give to buy back his life?

For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in his Father's glory, and then he will repay everyone for what he has done.

He said, "Yes." But when he went home, Jesus spoke of it first and said, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do earthly kings collect duties and taxes? From their own people, or from aliens?"

What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them strays away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills, and go in search of the one that is astray?

Again, I tell you, if even two of you here on earth agree about what they shall pray for, it will be given them by my Father in heaven.

But when the slave went out he met a fellow-slave of his who owed him twenty dollars, and he caught him by the throat and began to choke him, saying, 'Pay me what you owe!'

When his fellow-slaves saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went to their master and reported the whole matter to him.

That is what my heavenly Father will do to you, if you do not each forgive your brothers from your hearts!"

Therefore, what God has joined together, man must not try to separate."

A man came up to him and said, "Master, what good deed must I do to obtain eternal life?"

But he said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. But if you want to enter that life, keep the commandments."

The young man said to him, "I have obeyed all these commandments. What do I still lack?"

Then Peter spoke and said to him, "Here we have left all we had and followed you. What are we to have?"

Take what belongs to you and go. I wish to give the last man hired as much as I give you.

Have I no right to do what I please with what is mine? Or do you begrudge my generosity?'

He said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Give orders that these two sons of mine sit one at your right and one at your left, when you are king!"

But Jesus answered, "You do not know what you are asking for! Can you drink what I am going to drink?" They answered, "Yes, we can."

He said to them, "Then what I drink you shall drink, but as for sitting at my right or my left, that is not mine to give, but belongs to those for whom it is destined by my Father."

And Jesus stopped and called them, and said, "What do you want me to do for you?"

Now this happened in fulfilment of what was said by the prophet,

and said to him, "Do you hear what they are saying?" Jesus said to them, "Yes. Did you never read, 'You have drawn praise from the mouths of children and infants'?"

Jesus answered, "I tell you, if you have faith and have no doubt, you will not only do what I have done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Get up and throw yourself into the sea,' it will be done.

When he had entered the Temple, and was teaching, the high priests and the elders of the people came up to him, and said, "What authority have you for doing as you do, and who gave you this authority?"

Jesus answered, "Let me ask you one question, and if you answer it, I will tell you what authority I have for doing as I do.

And they answered Jesus, "We do not know." He said to them, "Nor will I tell you what authority I have for doing as I do.

But what do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, 'My son, go and work in the vineyard today.'

Which of the two did what his father wanted?" They said, "The second one." Jesus said to them, "I tell you, the tax-collectors and prostitutes are going into the Kingdom of God ahead of you.

When the owner of the vineyard comes back, therefore, what will he do to these tenants?"

They answered, "The emperor's." Then he said to them, "Then pay the emperor what belongs to the emperor, and pay God what belongs to God!"

But as to the resurrection of the dead, did you never read what was said to you by God,

"Master, what command is greatest in the Law?"

"What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "David's."

As he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came up to him by themselves, and said to him, "Tell us when this is to happen, and what will be the sign of your coming, and of the close of the age."

So you must be on the watch, for you do not know on what day your Master is coming.

But you may be sure of this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the watch, and would not have let his house be broken into.

for the man who has will have more given him, and will be plentifully supplied, and from the man who has nothing even what he has will be taken away.

When his disciples saw it, they said indignantly, "What was the use of wasting it like that?

I tell you, wherever this good news is preached all over the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her."

and said, "What will you give me if I hand him over to you?" And they counted him out thirty silver pieces.

Jesus said to him, "My friend, what are you here for?" Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and secured him.

And the high priest got up and said to him, "Have you no answer to make? What about their evidence against you?"

Then the high priest tore his clothing and said, "He has uttered blasphemy! What do we want of witnesses now? Here you have heard his blasphemy!

What is your decision?" They answered, "He deserves death."

But he denied it before them all, and said, "I do not know what you mean."

and said, "I did wrong when I handed an innocent man over to death!" They said, "What is that to us? You see to it yourself."

Then Pilate said to him, "Do you not hear what evidence they are bringing against you?"

Pilate said to them, "Then what am I to do with Jesus, the so-called Christ?" They all said, "Have him crucified!"

He said, "Why, what has he done that is wrong?" But they shouted all the louder, "Have him crucified!"
