And going on board a boat, he crossed over, and came to his own city. And lo! they brought to him a man that was palsied, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the palsied man, Be of good cheer, son; thy sins are forgiven. And lo! some of the scribes said within themselves, This man is blaspheming. read more.
And Jesus seeing their thoughts, said, Wherefore have ye evil thoughts in your hearts? For which is easier? to say, Thy sins are forgiven? or to say, Arise, and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on earth to forgive sins,then he saith to the palsied man,Arise, take up thy bed, and go to thy house. And he arose, and went away to his house. And when the multitudes saw it, they were struck with fear, and gave glory to God, who had given such power to men. And as Jesus passed on from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the customhouse; and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. And it came to pass, as he was reclining at table in the house, lo! many publicans and sinners came and reclined with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why doth your teacher eat with the publicans and sinners? But when he heard that, he said, They who are well do not need a physician, but they who are sick. But go ye and learn what this meaneth: "I desire mercy, and not sacrifice." For I came not to call righteous men, but sinners. Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples fast not? And Jesus said to them, Can the companions of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then will they fast. No one putteth a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment; for the piece that filleth in teareth away from the garment, and a worse rent is made. Nor do men put new wine into old skins; else the skins burst, and the wine runneth out, and the skins are spoilt. But they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together. While he was thus speaking to them, lo! a certain ruler came in and bowed down before him, saying, My daughter just now died; but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she will live. And Jesus arose and followed him, with his disciples. And, lo! a woman, who had had an issue of blood for twelve years, came up behind, and touched the fringe of his garment. For she said within herself, If I only touch his garment, I shall be made well. And he turned round, and seeing her, said, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath made thee well. And the woman was made well from that hour. And Jesus coming into the rulers house, and seeing the minstrels, and the crowd making a noise, said, Withdraw; for the girl is not dead, but is sleeping. And they laughed him to scorn. But when the crowd had been put out, he went in, and took hold of her hand; and the girl arose. And the report of this went abroad into all that country.

And there cometh a leper to him beseeching him, and kneeling down, saying to him, If thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.

Think not that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill. For truly do I say to you, Not till heaven and earth pass away, shall one jot or one tittle pass from the Law, till all be fulfilled. Whoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, "Thou shalt not kill; and whoever shall kill, shall be in danger of the Judges." But I say to you, that whoever is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the Judges; and whoever shall say to his brother, Simpleton! shall be in danger of the Council; and whoever shall say, Fool! shall be in danger of hellfire. Therefore, if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there remember that thy brother hath aught against thee, read more.
leave there thy gift before the altar, and go away; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. Agree with thine adversary at law quickly, while thou art on the road with him; lest the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Truly do I say to thee, Thou wilt not come out thence, till thou hast paid the last farthing. Ye have heard that it was said, "Thou shalt not commit adultery." But I say to you, that whoever looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. And if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should 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 members should perish, than that thy whole body should go away into hell. And it was said, "Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement." But I say to you, that whoever putteth away his wife, unless it be on account of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery; and whoever shall marry her when put away, committeth adultery. Again ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, "Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform to the Lord thine oaths." But I say to you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King; nor shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black. But let your language be, Yea, yea; Nay; nay; for whatever is more than these cometh of evil. Ye have heard that it was said, "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth." But I say to you, that ye resist not the evildoer; but whoever smiteth thee on the right cheek, turn to him the other also; and if any one intends to sue thee at the law, and take thy coat, give up to him thy cloak also; and whoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him that asketh of thee; and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not away. Ye have heard that it was said, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy." But I say to you, Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you;
