The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this; for after his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.

She shall bring forth a son. You shall call his name Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins."

and didn't know her sexually until she had brought forth her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,

Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.

But Jesus, answering, said to him, "Allow it now, for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he allowed him.

Jesus, when he was baptized, went up directly from the water: and behold, the heavens were opened to him. He saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming on him.

Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

Jesus said to him, "Again, it is written, 'You shall not test the Lord, your God.'"

Then Jesus said to him, "Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.'"

Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.

From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, "Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand."

Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

It happened, when Jesus had finished saying these things, that the multitudes were astonished at his teaching,

Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, "I want to. Be made clean." Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

Jesus said to him, "See that you tell nobody, but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them."

Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him."

When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to those who followed, "Most certainly I tell you, I haven't found so great a faith, not even in Israel.

Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way. Let it be done for you as you have believed." His servant was healed in that hour.

When Jesus came into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother lying sick with a fever.

Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.

Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."

But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."

Behold, they cried out, saying, "What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

Behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged that he would depart from their borders.

Behold, they brought to him a man who was paralyzed, lying on a bed. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, "Son, cheer up! Your sins are forgiven you."

Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts?

As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, "Follow me." He got up and followed him.

It happened as he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.

When Jesus heard it, he said to them, "Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.

Jesus said to them, "Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.

Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.

But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, "Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour.

When Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd in noisy disorder,

As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, "Have mercy on us, son of David!"

When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They told him, "Yes, Lord."

Their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, "See that no one knows about this."

Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

Jesus sent these twelve out, and commanded them, saying, "Don't go among the Gentiles, and don't enter into any city of the Samaritans.

It happened that when Jesus had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.

Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:

As these went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

At that time, Jesus answered, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.

At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.

Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,

Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

On that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the seaside.

Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn't speak to them,

Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field."

Jesus said to them, "Have you understood all these things?" They answered him, "Yes, Lord."

It happened that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.

They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house."

At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,

His disciples came, and took the body, and buried it; and they went and told Jesus.

Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat, to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.

Jesus went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them, and healed their sick.

But Jesus said to them, "They don't need to go away. You give them something to eat."

Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat, and to go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.

But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying "Cheer up! It is I! Don't be afraid."

He said, "Come!" Peter stepped down from the boat, and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.

Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"

Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,

So Jesus said, "Do you also still not understand?

Jesus went out from there, and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.

Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that hour.

Jesus departed there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.

Jesus summoned his disciples and said, "I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don't want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way."

Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven, and a few small fish."

Jesus said to them, "Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."

Jesus, perceiving it, said, "Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, 'because you have brought no bread?'

Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?"

Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.

From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

After six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.

Peter answered, and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let's make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

Jesus came and touched them and said, "Get up, and don't be afraid."

Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.

As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, "Don't tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead."

Jesus answered them, "Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore all things,

Jesus answered, "Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me."

Jesus rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.

Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, "Why weren't we able to cast it out?"

While they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,

He said, "Yes." When he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?"

Peter said to him, "From strangers." Jesus said to him, "Therefore the children are exempt.

In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?"

Jesus called a little child to himself, and set him in the midst of them,

Jesus said to him, "I don't tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.

It happened when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.

But Jesus said, "Allow the little children, and don't forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these."

He said to him, "Which ones?" Jesus said, "'You shall not murder.' 'You shall not commit adultery.' 'You shall not steal.' 'You shall not offer false testimony.'

Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."

Jesus said to his disciples, "Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.

Looking at them, Jesus said, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

Jesus said to them, "Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
