And entering a ship, he crossed over, and came to his own city; and behold they brought him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus seeing their faith said to the paralytic, Son, be of good courage; your sins are forgiven. And behold some of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemes. read more.
And Jesus observing their thoughts, said, Why do you think evil in your hearts? For in what respect is it easier to say, Your sins are forgiven, than to say, Arise and walk? But that you may know that the Son of man has power on the earth to forgive sins, then he said to the paralytic, Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house. And he arose and departed to his house. And when the multitudes saw it they were afraid, and glorified God who had given such power to men. And Jesus departing thence saw a man sitting at the custom-house, called Matthew; and he said to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. And he was reclining in the house, and behold, many publicans and sinners came and reclined with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw them they said to his disciples, Why does your teacher eat with publicans and sinners? And hearing it he said, The well need not a physician, but the sick. Go and learn what this means: I wish for mercy and not a sacrifice; for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners. Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast much, but your disciples fast not? And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then they shalt fast. But no one puts a piece of unfilled cloth on an old garment; for it takes away its fullness from the garment, and the rent is made worse. Neither do they put new wine into old bottles; otherwise the bottles break, and the wine is poured out and the bottles destroyed; but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved. While he was saying these words to them, behold a ruler came and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is now dead, but come and put your hand on her and she shall live. And Jesus arose and followed him, and his disciples. And behold a woman having a hemorrhage of twelve years approached him from behind, and touched the fringe of his garment; for she said within herself, If I can only touch his garment I shall be cured. And Jesus turning around and seeing her, said, Daughter, be of good courage, your faith has cured you. And the woman was cured from that hour. And Jesus coming into the house of the ruler, and seeing the musicians and the multitude making a tumultuous noise, said, Go away; for the girl is not dead, but asleep. And they derided him. But when the multitude were removed he went in and took her hand, and the girl arose. And the report went out into all that land.

saying, What have you to do with us, Jesus Nazarene? have you come to destroy us? We know you who you are, the holy [Son] of God! And Jesus rebuked him saying, Be still, and come out of him. And the impure spirit affecting him with convulsions, and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

And he healed many that were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons, and suffered not the demons to say that they knew him. And in the morning while it was quite dark he arose and went out, and departed to a solitary place, and there prayed. And Simon and those with him followed him, and said to him, All men seek you.
