And behold, you will conceive in the womb and will give birth to a son, and you will call his name Jesus.

And when eight days were completed {so that he could be circumcised}, he was named Jesus, his name [that] [he] was called by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus so that they could do for him according to what was customary under the law,

And [after] the days were completed, while they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. And his parents did not know [it],

And Jesus was advancing in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and [with] people.

Now it happened that when all the people were baptized, Jesus also was baptized, and [while he] was praying, heaven was opened,

And Jesus, [when he] began [his ministry], was himself about thirty years [old], being the son (as it was believed) of Joseph the [son] of Eli,

And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness

And Jesus replied to him, "It is written, 'Man will not live on bread alone.'"

And Jesus answered [and] said to him, "It is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and serve only him.'"

And Jesus answered [and] said to him, "It is said, 'You are not to put to the test the Lord your God.'"

And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news about him went out throughout all the surrounding region.

"Ha! {Leave us alone}, Jesus the Nazarene! Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are--the Holy One of God!"

And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent and come out of him!" And [after] throwing him down in their midst, the demon came out of him without hurting him at all.

And [when he] saw [it], Simon Peter fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, Lord, because I am {a sinful man}!"

and so also [were] James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were business partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid! From now on you will be catching people!"

And it happened that while he was in one of the towns, {there was} a man {covered with leprosy}. And [when he] saw Jesus, he fell down on [his] face [and] begged him, saying, "Lord, if you are willing, you are able to make me clean."

And [when they] did not find a way to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof [and] let him down through the roof tiles with the stretcher into the midst [of them], in front of Jesus.

But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, answered [and] said to them, "Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

And Jesus answered [and] said to them, "Those who are healthy do not have need of a physician, but those {who are sick}.

And Jesus answered [and] said to them, "Have you not read this, what David did when he and those [who were] with him were hungry--

And Jesus said to them, "I ask you whether it is permitted on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save a life or to destroy [it]?"

But they were filled with fury, and began discussing with one another what they might do to Jesus.

So [when he] heard about Jesus, he sent Jewish elders to him, asking him that he would come [and] cure his slave.

And [when they] came to Jesus, they began imploring him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy [that] you grant this for him,

So Jesus went with them. Now by this time he was not far away from the house, [and] the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy that you should come in under my roof.

And [when] Jesus heard these [things], he marveled at him, and turning around to the crowd that was following him, he said, "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith!"

And Jesus answered [and] said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." And he said, "Teacher, say [it]."

And [when he] saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, "{What do I have to do with you}, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me!"

So Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion," because many demons had entered into him.

So they went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting [there] clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid.

"Return to your home and tell all that God has done for you." And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole town all that Jesus had done for him.

Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, because they were all waiting for him.

And behold, a man {who was named} Jairus came, and this man was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus [and] began imploring him to come to his house,

And Jesus said, "Who [is] the one who touched me?" And [when they] all denied [it], Peter said, "Master, the crowds are pressing you hard and crowding [you]!"

But Jesus said, "Someone touched me, because I know power has gone out from me."

But Jesus, [when he] heard [this], replied to him, "Do not be afraid! Only believe, and she will be healed."

And it happened that as they were going away from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good [for] us to be here. And let us make three shelters, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah," not knowing what he was saying.

And after the voice had occurred, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

So Jesus answered [and] said, "O unbelieving and perverted generation! {How long} will I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here!"

And [while] he was still approaching, the demon threw him down and convulsed [him]. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

But Jesus, [because he] knew the thoughts of their hearts, took hold of a child and had him stand beside him

But Jesus said to him, "Do not prevent [him], because whoever is not against you is for you."

And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have dens and birds of the sky [have] nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay [his] head."

But Jesus said, "No one who puts [his] hand on the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God!"

But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"

And Jesus replied [and] said, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who both stripped him and beat [him]. [After] inflicting blows on [him], they went away, leaving [him] half dead.

So he said, "The one who showed mercy to him." And Jesus said to him, "You go and do likewise."

And {she had} a sister named Mary, who also sat at the feet of Jesus [and] was listening to his teaching.

And [when he] saw her, Jesus summoned [her] and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your disability!"

But the ruler of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, answered [and] said to the crowd, "There are six days on which it is necessary to work. Therefore come [and] be healed on them, and not on the day of the Sabbath!"

And Jesus answered [and] said to the legal experts and Pharisees, saying, "Is it permitted to heal on the Sabbath, or not?"

And they raised [their] voices, saying, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!"

So Jesus answered [and] said, "Were not ten cleansed? And where [are] the nine?

But Jesus called them to himself, saying, "Allow the children to come to me, and do not forbid them, {for to such belongs} the kingdom of God.

And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one [is] good except God alone.

And [when he] heard [this], Jesus said to him, "{You still lack one thing}: Sell all that you have, and distribute [the proceeds] to the poor--and you will have treasure in heaven--and come, follow me."

And Jesus took notice of him [and] said, "How {difficult it is for} those who possess wealth to enter into the kingdom of God!

And they told him, "Jesus the Nazarene is passing by."

And he called out, saying, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

So Jesus stopped [and] ordered him to be brought to him. And [when] he approached, he asked him,

And Jesus said to him, "Regain [your] sight! Your faith has saved you."

And he was seeking to see Jesus--who he was--and he was not able to as a result of the crowd, because he was short in stature.

And when he came to the place, Jesus looked up [and] said to him, "Zacchaeus, come down quickly, because it is necessary [for] me to stay at your house today!"

And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he too is a son of Abraham.

And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their cloaks on the colt, they put Jesus [on it].

And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these [things]."

And Jesus said to them, "The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage,

[While] he was still speaking, behold, [there came] a crowd, and the one named Judas, one of the twelve, leading them. And he approached Jesus to kiss him.

But Jesus said to him, "Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?"

But Jesus answered [and] said, "{Stop! No more of this!}" And he touched [his] ear [and] healed him.

And Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders who had come out against him, "Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber?

And [when] Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had been wanting to see him for a long time, because he had heard about him and was hoping to see some miracle performed by him.

And Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed [them] again,

And he released the one who had been thrown into prison because of insurrection and murder, whom they were asking for, but Jesus he handed over to their will.

And as they led him away, they seized Simon, a certain [man] of Cyrene, who was coming from the country, [and] placed the cross on him, to carry [it] behind Jesus.

But turning to them, Jesus said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children!

[[But Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."]] And they cast lots to divide his clothes.

And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom!"

And Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit!" And [after he] said this, he expired.

This man approached Pilate [and] asked for the body of Jesus.

And it happened that while they were conversing, and discussing, Jesus himself also approached [and] began to go along with them,

And he said to them, "What [things]?" So they said to him, "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, a man who was a prophet, powerful in deed and word before God and all the people,
