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 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.

And going immediately out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew with James and John; and Simon's mother-in-law was lying with a fever; and immediately they told him of her. And coming, he took her by the hand, and raised her up, and the fever immediately left her, and she waited on them. And at evening when the sun went down they brought to him all that were sick, and the demoniacs; and the whole city was assembled at the door. 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. And he said to them, Let us go elsewhere to the adjoining villages to preach there; because for this purpose have I come. And he preached in their synagogues in all Galilee, and cast out demons. And a leper came to him beseeching him, saying to him, If you will, you can cleanse me. And having compassion on him, he stretched out his hand and touched him, and said to him, I will; be cleansed.

And the Pharisees went out immediately with the Herodians, and took counsel against him to kill him.

WHEN he had finished all his discourses in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum. And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die; and he hearing of Jesus, sent to him the elders of the Jews, asking him to come and cure his servant. read more.
And having come to Jesus they besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy for whom you should do this; for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue. And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying, Lord, trouble not yourself, for I am not fit that you should come under my roof. Wherefore I did not think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant shall be cured; for I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me, and I say to one, Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it. And Jesus hearing these things wondered at him, and turning around said to the multitude following him, I tell you I have not found in Israel so great a faith; and those sent returning to the house found the sick servant well.

Then Jesus said to him, Unless you see miracles and prodigies you will not believe. read more.

Think not that I have come to destroy the law or the prophets; I have not come to destroy but to complete. For I tell you truly, that till heaven and earth pass away, one iota or one point shall by no means pass away from the law till all things are accomplished. Whoever therefore shall break one of the least of these commandments, and teach men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

You have heard that it was said by the ancients, You shall not kill; and whoever kills shall be subject to the judgment. But I tell you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be subject to the judgment; and whoever says to his brother, Worthless fellow, shall be subject to the Sanhedrim; and whoever says, You fool, shall be subject to the hell of fire.

You have heard that it was said, You shall not commit adultery; but I tell you, that every one who looks on a woman to desire her inordinately, has already committed adultery with her in his heart. But if your right eye offends you, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is better for you that one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be cast into hell. And if your right hand offends you, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is better for you that one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should go into hell. And it was said, Whoever would put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorcement. But I tell you, that whoever puts away his wife, except for adultery, causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries her that is put away, commits adultery. Again, you have heard that it was said by the ancients, You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord your oaths. But I tell you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is his footstool, nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King; nor swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. But let your speech be, yes, yes, and no, no; for any thing more than this is evil. You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.

Give to him that asks, and from him that would borrow of you turn not away. You have heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy. But I tell you, Love your enemies, and pray for those that persecute you;
