btext:
And<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> the fountain<WG4077> of her<WG846> blood<WG129> was dried up<WG3583>; and<WG2532> she felt<WG1097> in her body<WG4983> that<WG3754> she was healed<WG2390> of<WG575> that plague<WG3148>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424>, immediately<WG2112> knowing<WG1921> in<WG1722> himself<WG1438> that virtue<WG1411> had gone<WG1831> out of<WG1537> him<WG846>, turned him about<WG1994> in<WG1722> the press<WG3793>, and said<WG3004>, Who<WG5101> touched<WG680> my<WG3450> clothes<WG2440>?


btext:
And<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Thou seest<WG991> the multitude<WG3793> thronging<WG4918> thee<WG4571>, and<WG2532> sayest thou<WG3004>, Who<WG5101> touched<WG680> me<WG3450>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he looked round about<WG4017> to see<WG1492> her that had done<WG4160> this thing<WG5124>.


btext:
But<WG1161> the woman<WG1135> fearing<WG5399> and<WG2532> trembling<WG5141>, knowing<WG1492> what<WG3739> was done<WG1096> in<WG1909> her<WG846>, came<WG2064> and<WG2532> fell down before<WG4363> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> told<WG2036> him<WG846> all<WG3956> the truth<WG225>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, Daughter<WG2364>, thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> hath made<WG4982> thee<WG4571> whole<WG4982>; go<WG5217> in<WG1519> peace<WG1515>, and<WG2532> be<WG2468> whole<WG5199> of<WG575> thy<WG4675> plague<WG3148>.


btext:
While<WG2089> he<WG846> yet<WG2089> spake<WG2980>, there came<WG2064> from<WG575> the ruler of the synagogue's<WG752> house certain which said<WG3004><WG3754>, Thy<WG4675> daughter<WG2364> is dead<WG599>: why<WG5101> troublest thou<WG4660> the Master<WG1320> any further<WG2089>?


btext:
As soon as<WG1161><WG2112> Jesus<WG2424> heard<WG191> the word<WG3056> that was spoken<WG2980>, he saith<WG3004> unto the ruler of the synagogue<WG752>, Be<WG5399> not<WG3361> afraid<WG5399>, only<WG3440> believe<WG4100>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he suffered<WG863><WG3756> no man<WG3762> to follow<WG4870> him<WG846>, save<WG1508> Peter<WG4074>, and<WG2532> James<WG2385>, and<WG2532> John<WG2491> the brother<WG80> of James<WG2385>.

btext:
And<WG2532> when he was come in<WG1525>, he saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> make ye this ado<WG2350>, and<WG2532> weep<WG2799>? the damsel<WG3813> is<WG599> not<WG3756> dead<WG599>, but<WG235> sleepeth<WG2518>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they laughed<WG2606> him<WG846> to scorn<WG2606>. But<WG1161> when he had put<WG1544> them all<WG537> out<WG1544>, he taketh<WG3880> the father<WG3962> and<WG2532> the mother<WG3384> of the damsel<WG3813>, and<WG2532> them that were with<WG3326> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> entereth in<WG1531> where<WG3699> the damsel<WG3813> was<WG2258> lying<WG345>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG2902> the damsel<WG3813> by the hand<WG5495>, and said<WG3004> unto her<WG846>, Talitha<WG5008> cumi<WG2891>; which<WG3739> is<WG2076>, being interpreted<WG3177>, Damsel<WG2877>, I say<WG3004> unto thee<WG4671>, arise<WG1453>.


btext:
And<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> the damsel<WG2877> arose<WG450>, and<WG2532> walked<WG4043>; for<WG1063> she was<WG2258> of the age of twelve<WG1427> years<WG2094>. And<WG2532> they were astonished<WG1839> with a great<WG3173> astonishment<WG1611>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he charged<WG1291> them<WG846> straitly<WG4183> that<WG2443> no man<WG3367> should know<WG1097> it<WG5124>; and<WG2532> commanded<WG2036> that something should be given<WG1325> her<WG846> to eat<WG5315>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went out<WG1831> from thence<WG1564>, and<WG2532> came<WG2064> into<WG1519> his own<WG846> country<WG3968>; and<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> follow<WG190> him<WG846>.

And<WG2532> when the sabbath day<WG4521> was come<WG1096>, he began<WG756> to teach<WG1321> in<WG1722> the synagogue<WG4864>: and<WG2532> many<WG4183> hearing<WG191> him were astonished<WG1605>, saying<WG3004>, From whence<WG4159> hath this<WG5129> man these things<WG5023>? and<WG2532> what<WG5101> wisdom<WG4678> is this which is given<WG1325> unto him<WG846>, that<WG3754> even<WG2532> such<WG5108> mighty works<WG1411> are wrought<WG1096> by<WG1223> his<WG846> hands<WG5495>?

And<WG2532> they were offended<WG4624> at<WG1722> him<WG846>. / offended: scandalized in, or, by him


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG3004> unto them<WG846><WG3754>, A prophet<WG4396> is<WG2076> not<WG3756> without honour<WG820>, but<WG1508> in<WG1722> his own<WG846> country<WG3968>, and<WG2532> among<WG1722> his own kin<WG4773>, and<WG2532> in<WG1722> his own<WG846> house<WG3614>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he could<WG3756><WG1410> there<WG1563> do<WG4160> no<WG3762> mighty work<WG1411>, save<WG1508> that he laid<WG2007> his hands<WG5495> upon a few<WG3641> sick folk<WG732>, and healed<WG2323> them.


btext:
And<WG2532> he marvelled<WG2296> because<WG1223> of their<WG846> unbelief<WG570>. And<WG2532> he went<WG4013> round about<WG2945> the villages<WG2968>, teaching<WG1321>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he called<WG4341> unto him the twelve<WG1427>, and<WG2532> began<WG756> to send<WG649> them<WG846> forth<WG649> by two<WG1417> and two<WG1417>; and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> them<WG846> power over<WG1849> unclean<WG169> spirits<WG4151>;


btext:
And<WG2532> commanded<WG3853> them<WG846> that<WG2443> they should take<WG142> nothing<WG3367> for<WG1519> their journey<WG3598>, save<WG1508> a staff<WG4464> only<WG3440>; no<WG3361> scrip<WG4082>, no<WG3361> bread<WG740>, no<WG3361> money<WG5475> in<WG1519> their purse<WG2223>: / money: the word signifieth a piece of brass money, in value somewhat less than a farthing, Mat.10.9.but here it is taken in general for money

But<WG235> be shod<WG5265> with sandals<WG4547>; and<WG2532> not<WG3361> put on<WG1746><WG1746> two<WG1417> coats<WG5509>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, In what place soever<WG3699><WG1437> ye enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> an house<WG3614>, there<WG1563> abide<WG3306> till<WG2193><WG302> ye depart<WG1831> from that place<WG1564>.


btext:
And<WG2532> whosoever<WG3745><WG302> shall<WG1209> not<WG3361> receive<WG1209> you<WG5209>, nor<WG3366> hear<WG191> you<WG5216>, when ye depart<WG1607> thence<WG1564>, shake off<WG1621> the dust<WG5522> under<WG5270> your<WG5216> feet<WG4228> for<WG1519> a testimony<WG3142> against them<WG846>. Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, It shall be<WG2071> more tolerable<WG414> for Sodom<WG4670> and<WG2228> Gomorrha<WG1116> in<WG1722> the day<WG2250> of judgment<WG2920>, than<WG2228> for that<WG1565> city<WG4172>. / and: Gr. or


btext:
And<WG2532> they cast out<WG1544> many<WG4183> devils<WG1140>, and<WG2532> anointed<WG218> with oil<WG1637> many<WG4183> that were sick<WG732>, and<WG2532> healed<WG2323> them.


btext:
And<WG2532> king<WG935> Herod<WG2264> heard<WG191> of him; (for<WG1063> his<WG846> name<WG3686> was<WG1096> spread abroad<WG5318>:) and<WG2532> he said<WG3004>, That<WG3754> John<WG2491> the Baptist<WG907> was risen<WG1453> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>, and<WG2532> therefore<WG1223><WG5124> mighty works<WG1411> do shew forth themselves<WG1754> in<WG1722> him<WG846>.


btext:
Others<WG243> said<WG3004>, That<WG3754> it is<WG2076> Elias<WG2243>. And<WG1161> others<WG243> said<WG3004>, That<WG3754> it is<WG2076> a prophet<WG4396>, or<WG2228> as<WG5613> one of<WG1520> the prophets<WG4396>.


btext:
But<WG1161> when Herod<WG2264> heard<WG191> thereof, he said<WG2036>, It<WG3778> is<WG2076> John<WG2491>, whom<WG3754><WG3739> I<WG1473> beheaded<WG607>: he<WG846> is risen<WG1453> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>.


btext:
For<WG1063> Herod<WG2264> himself<WG846> had sent forth<WG649> and laid hold<WG2902> upon John<WG2491>, and<WG2532> bound<WG1210> him<WG846> in<WG1722> prison<WG5438> for<WG1223> Herodias'<WG2266> sake<WG1223>, his<WG846> brother<WG80> Philip's<WG5376> wife<WG1135>: for<WG3754> he had married<WG1060> her<WG846>.


btext:
For<WG1063> John<WG2491> had said<WG3004> unto Herod<WG2264><WG3754>, It is<WG1832> not<WG3756> lawful<WG1832> for thee<WG4671> to have<WG2192> thy<WG4675> brother's<WG80> wife<WG1135>.


btext:
Therefore<WG1161> Herodias<WG2266> had a quarrel<WG1758> against him<WG846>, and<WG2532> would<WG2309> have killed<WG615> him<WG846>; but<WG2532> she could<WG1410> not<WG3756>: / a quarrel: or, an inward grudge


btext:
For<WG1063> Herod<WG2264> feared<WG5399> John<WG2491>, knowing<WG1492> that he<WG846> was a just<WG1342> man<WG435> and<WG2532> an holy<WG40>, and<WG2532> observed<WG4933> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> when he heard<WG191> him<WG846>, he did<WG4160> many things<WG4183>, and<WG2532> heard<WG191> him<WG846> gladly<WG2234>. / observed him: or, kept him, or, saved him


btext:
And<WG2532> when a convenient<WG2121> day<WG2250> was come<WG1096>, that<WG3753> Herod<WG2264> on his<WG846> birthday<WG1077> made<WG4160> a supper<WG1173> to his<WG846> lords<WG3175><WG2532>, high captains<WG5506>, and<WG2532> chief<WG4413> estates of Galilee<WG1056>;


btext:
And<WG2532> when the daughter<WG2364> of the said<WG846> Herodias<WG2266> came in<WG1525>, and<WG2532> danced<WG3738>, and<WG2532> pleased<WG700> Herod<WG2264> and<WG2532> them that sat with him<WG4873>, the king<WG935> said<WG2036> unto the damsel<WG2877>, Ask<WG154> of me<WG3165> whatsoever<WG3739><WG1437> thou wilt<WG2309>, and<WG2532> I will give<WG1325> it thee<WG4671>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he sware<WG3660> unto her<WG846>, Whatsoever<WG3754><WG3739><WG1437> thou shalt ask<WG154> of me<WG3165>, I will give<WG1325> it thee<WG4671>, unto<WG2193> the half<WG2255> of my<WG3450> kingdom<WG932>.


btext:
And<WG1161> she went forth<WG1831>, and said<WG2036> unto her<WG846> mother<WG3384>, What<WG5101> shall I ask<WG154>? And<WG1161> she said<WG2036>, The head<WG2776> of John<WG2491> the Baptist<WG910>.


btext:
And<WG2532> she came in<WG1525> straightway<WG2112> with<WG3326> haste<WG4710> unto<WG4314> the king<WG935>, and asked<WG154>, saying<WG3004>, I will<WG2309> that<WG2443> thou give<WG1325> me<WG3427> by and by<WG1824> in<WG1909> a charger<WG4094> the head<WG2776> of John<WG2491> the Baptist<WG910>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the king<WG935> was<WG1096> exceeding sorry<WG4036>; yet for<WG1223> his oath's sake<WG3727>, and<WG2532> for their sakes which<WG3588> sat with him<WG4873>, he would<WG2309> not<WG3756> reject<WG114> her<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> immediately<WG2112> the king<WG935> sent<WG649> an executioner<WG4688>, and commanded<WG2004> his<WG846> head<WG2776> to be brought<WG5342>: and<WG1161> he went<WG565> and beheaded<WG607> him<WG846> in<WG1722> the prison<WG5438>, / an…: or, one of his guard


btext:
And<WG2532> brought<WG5342> his<WG846> head<WG2776> in<WG1909> a charger<WG4094>, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> it<WG846> to the damsel<WG2877>: and<WG2532> the damsel<WG2877> gave<WG1325> it<WG846> to her<WG846> mother<WG3384>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> heard<WG191> of it, they came<WG2064> and<WG2532> took up<WG142> his<WG846> corpse<WG4430>, and<WG2532> laid<WG5087> it<WG846> in<WG1722> a tomb<WG3419>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the apostles<WG652> gathered themselves together<WG4863> unto<WG4314> Jesus<WG2424>, and<WG2532> told<WG518> him<WG846> all things<WG3956>, both<WG2532> what<WG3745> they had done<WG4160>, and<WG2532> what<WG3745> they had taught<WG1321>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Come<WG1205> ye<WG5210> yourselves<WG846> apart<WG2596><WG2398> into<WG1519> a desert<WG2048> place<WG5117>, and<WG2532> rest<WG373> a while<WG3641>: for<WG1063> there were<WG2258> many<WG4183> coming<WG2064> and<WG2532> going<WG5217>, and<WG2532> they had no<WG3761> leisure<WG2119> so much as<WG3761> to eat<WG5315>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they departed<WG565> into<WG1519> a desert<WG2048> place<WG5117> by ship<WG4143> privately<WG2596><WG2398>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the people<WG3793> saw<WG1492> them<WG846> departing<WG5217>, and<WG2532> many<WG4183> knew<WG1921> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> ran<WG4936> afoot<WG3979> thither<WG1563> out of<WG575> all<WG3956> cities<WG4172>, and<WG2532> outwent<WG4281> them<WG846>, and<WG2532> came together<WG4905> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424>, when he came out<WG1831>, saw<WG1492> much<WG4183> people<WG3793>, and<WG2532> was moved with compassion<WG4697> toward<WG1909> them<WG846>, because<WG3754> they were<WG2258> as<WG5613> sheep<WG4263> not<WG3361> having<WG2192> a shepherd<WG4166>: and<WG2532> he began<WG756> to teach<WG1321> them<WG846> many things<WG4183>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when the day<WG5610> was<WG1096> now<WG2235> far spent<WG4183>, his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> came<WG4334> unto him<WG846>, and said<WG3004><WG3754>, This is<WG2076> a desert<WG2048> place<WG5117>, and<WG2532> now<WG2235> the time<WG5610> is far passed<WG4183>:

Send<WG630> them<WG846> away<WG630>, that<WG2443> they may go<WG565> into<WG1519> the country<WG68> round about<WG2945>, and<WG2532> into the villages<WG2968>, and buy<WG59> themselves<WG1438> bread<WG740>: for<WG1063> they have<WG2192> nothing<WG5101><WG3756> to eat<WG5315>.


btext:
He answered<WG611> and<WG1161> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Give<WG1325> ye<WG5210> them<WG846> to eat<WG5315>. And<WG2532> they say<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Shall we go<WG565> and buy<WG59> two hundred<WG1250> pennyworth<WG1220> of bread<WG740>, and<WG2532> give<WG1325> them<WG846> to eat<WG5315>? / pennyworth: the Roman penny is sevenpence halfpenny

btext:
And<WG2532> he commanded<WG2004> them<WG846> to make<WG347> all<WG3956> sit down<WG347> by companies<WG4849><WG4849> upon<WG1909> the green<WG5515> grass<WG5528>.

And<WG2532> they took up<WG142> twelve<WG1427> baskets<WG2894> full<WG4134> of the fragments<WG2801>, and<WG2532> of<WG575> the fishes<WG2486>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they that did eat<WG5315> of the loaves<WG740> were<WG2258> about<WG5616> five thousand<WG4000> men<WG435>.


btext:
And<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> he constrained<WG315> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> to get<WG1684> into<WG1519> the ship<WG4143>, and<WG2532> to go<WG4254> to<WG1519> the other side<WG4008> before<WG4254> unto<WG4314> Bethsaida<WG966>, while<WG2193> he<WG846> sent away<WG630> the people<WG3793>. / unto…: or, over against Bethsaida


btext:
And<WG2532> when he had sent<WG657> them<WG846> away<WG657>, he departed<WG565> into<WG1519> a mountain<WG3735> to pray<WG4336>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when even<WG3798> was come<WG1096>, the ship<WG4143> was<WG2258> in<WG1722> the midst<WG3319> of the sea<WG2281>, and<WG2532> he<WG846> alone<WG3441> on<WG1909> the land<WG1093>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he saw<WG1492> them<WG846> toiling<WG928> in<WG1722> rowing<WG1643>; for<WG1063> the wind<WG417> was<WG2258> contrary<WG1727> unto them<WG846>: and<WG2532> about<WG4012> the fourth<WG5067> watch<WG5438> of the night<WG3571> he cometh<WG2064> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, walking<WG4043> upon<WG1909> the sea<WG2281>, and<WG2532> would<WG2309> have passed by<WG3928> them<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> when they saw<WG1492> him<WG846> walking<WG4043> upon<WG1909> the sea<WG2281>, they supposed<WG1380> it had been<WG1511> a spirit<WG5326>, and<WG2532> cried out<WG349>:


btext:
For<WG1063> they all<WG3956> saw<WG1492> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> were troubled<WG5015>. And<WG2532> immediately<WG2112> he talked<WG2980> with<WG3326> them<WG846>, and<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Be of good cheer<WG2293>: it is<WG1510> I<WG1473>; be<WG5399> not<WG3361> afraid<WG5399>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went up<WG305> unto<WG4314> them<WG846> into<WG1519> the ship<WG4143>; and<WG2532> the wind<WG417> ceased<WG2869>: and<WG2532> they were sore<WG3029> amazed<WG1839> in<WG1722> themselves<WG1438> beyond<WG1537> measure<WG4053>, and<WG2532> wondered<WG2296>.


btext:
For<WG1063> they considered<WG4920> not<WG3756> the miracle of<WG1909> the loaves<WG740>: for<WG1063> their<WG846> heart<WG2588> was<WG2258> hardened<WG4456>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they had passed over<WG1276>, they came<WG2064> into<WG1909> the land<WG1093> of Gennesaret<WG1082>, and<WG2532> drew to the shore<WG4358>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they<WG846> were come<WG1831> out of<WG1537> the ship<WG4143>, straightway<WG2112> they knew<WG1921> him<WG846>,


btext:
And ran through<WG4063> that<WG1565> whole<WG3650> region round about<WG4066>, and began<WG756> to carry about<WG4064> in<WG1909> beds<WG2895> those that were<WG2192> sick<WG2560>, where<WG3699> they heard<WG191> he was<WG3754><WG1563><WG2076>.


btext:
And<WG2532> whithersoever<WG3699><WG302> he entered<WG1531>, into<WG1519> villages<WG2968>, or<WG2228> cities<WG4172>, or<WG2228> country<WG68>, they laid<WG5087> the sick<WG770> in<WG1722> the streets<WG58>, and<WG2532> besought<WG3870> him<WG846> that<WG2443> they might touch<WG680> if<WG2579> it were but<WG2579> the border<WG2899> of his<WG846> garment<WG2440>: and<WG2532> as many<WG3745> as<WG302> touched<WG680> him<WG846> were made whole<WG4982>. / touched him: or, touched it

Then<WG2532> came together<WG4863> unto<WG4314> him<WG846> the Pharisees<WG5330>, and<WG2532> certain<WG5100> of the scribes<WG1122>, which came<WG2064> from<WG575> Jerusalem<WG2414>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they saw<WG1492> some<WG5100> of his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> eat<WG2068> bread<WG740> with defiled<WG2839>, that is to say<WG5123>, with unwashen<WG449>, hands<WG5495>, they found fault<WG3201>. / defiled: or, common

And<WG2532> when they come from<WG575> the market<WG58>, except<WG3362> they wash<WG907>, they eat<WG2068> not<WG3756>. And<WG2532> many<WG4183> other things<WG243> there be<WG2076>, which<WG3739> they have received<WG3880> to hold<WG2902>, as the washing<WG909> of cups<WG4221>, and<WG2532> pots<WG3582><WG2532>, brasen vessels<WG5473>, and<WG2532> of tables<WG2825>. / pots: sextarius is about a pint and an half / tables: or, beds


btext:
Then<WG1899> the Pharisees<WG5330> and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, Why<WG1302> walk<WG4043> not<WG3756> thy<WG4675> disciples<WG3101> according<WG2596> to the tradition<WG3862> of the elders<WG4245>, but<WG235> eat<WG2068> bread<WG740> with unwashen<WG449> hands<WG5495>?


btext:
He answered<WG611> and<WG1161> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846><WG3754>, Well<WG2573> hath Esaias<WG2268> prophesied<WG4395> of<WG4012> you<WG5216> hypocrites<WG5273>, as<WG5613> it is written<WG1125>, This<WG3778> people<WG2992> honoureth<WG5091> me<WG3165> with their lips<WG5491>, but<WG1161> their<WG846> heart<WG2588> is<WG568> far<WG4206> from<WG575> me<WG1700>.


btext:
Howbeit<WG1161> in vain<WG3155> do they worship<WG4576> me<WG3165>, teaching<WG1321> for doctrines<WG1319> the commandments<WG1778> of men<WG444>.


btext:
For<WG1063> laying aside<WG863> the commandment<WG1785> of God<WG2316>, ye hold<WG2902> the tradition<WG3862> of men<WG444>, as the washing<WG909> of pots<WG3582> and<WG2532> cups<WG4221>: and<WG2532> many<WG4183> other<WG243> such<WG5108> like things<WG3946> ye do<WG4160>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Full well<WG2573> ye reject<WG114> the commandment<WG1785> of God<WG2316>, that<WG2443> ye may keep<WG5083> your own<WG5216> tradition<WG3862>. / reject: or, frustrate


btext:
For<WG1063> Moses<WG3475> said<WG2036>, Honour<WG5091> thy<WG4675> father<WG3962> and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> mother<WG3384>; and<WG2532>, Whoso curseth<WG2551> father<WG3962> or<WG2228> mother<WG3384>, let him die<WG5053> the death<WG2288>:


btext:
But<WG1161> ye<WG5210> say<WG3004>, If<WG1437> a man<WG444> shall say<WG2036> to his father<WG3962> or<WG2228> mother<WG3384>, It is Corban<WG2878>, that is to say<WG3603>, a gift<WG1435>, by<WG1537> whatsoever<WG3739><WG1437> thou mightest be profited by<WG5623> me<WG1700>; he shall be free.


btext:
And<WG2532> ye suffer<WG863> him<WG846> no more<WG3765> to do<WG4160> ought<WG3762> for his<WG846> father<WG3962> or<WG2228> his<WG846> mother<WG3384>;

btext:
And<WG2532> when he had called<WG4341> all<WG3956> the people<WG3793> unto him, he said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Hearken<WG191> unto me<WG3450> every one<WG3956> of you, and<WG2532> understand<WG4920>:


btext:
There is<WG2076> nothing<WG3762> from without<WG1855> a man<WG444>, that<WG3739> entering<WG1531> into<WG1519> him<WG846> can<WG1410> defile<WG2840> him<WG846>: but<WG235> the things which come<WG1607> out of<WG575> him<WG846>, those<WG1565> are they<WG2076> that defile<WG2840> the man<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> he was entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> the house<WG3624> from<WG575> the people<WG3793>, his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> asked<WG1905> him<WG846> concerning<WG4012> the parable<WG3850>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Are<WG2075> ye<WG5210> so<WG3779> without understanding<WG801> also<WG2532>? Do ye<WG3539> not<WG3756> perceive<WG3539>, that<WG3754> whatsoever thing<WG3956> from without<WG1855> entereth<WG1531> into<WG1519> the man<WG444>, it cannot<WG3756><WG1410> defile<WG2840> him<WG846>;

Because<WG3754> it entereth<WG1531> not<WG3756> into<WG1519> his<WG846> heart<WG2588>, but<WG235> into<WG1519> the belly<WG2836>, and<WG2532> goeth out<WG1607> into<WG1519> the draught<WG856>, purging<WG2511> all<WG3956> meats<WG1033>?

And<WG1161> he said<WG3004><WG3754>, That which cometh<WG1607> out of<WG1537> the man<WG444>, that<WG1565> defileth<WG2840> the man<WG444>.

And<WG2532> from thence<WG1564> he arose<WG450>, and went<WG565> into<WG1519> the borders<WG3181> of Tyre<WG5184> and<WG2532> Sidon<WG4605>, and<WG2532> entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> an house<WG3614>, and would have<WG2309> no man<WG3762> know<WG1097> it: but<WG2532> he could<WG1410> not<WG3756> be hid<WG2990>.

And<WG1161> she answered<WG611> and<WG2532> said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Yes<WG3483>, Lord<WG2962>: yet<WG2532><WG1063> the dogs<WG2952> under<WG5270> the table<WG5132> eat<WG2068> of<WG575> the children's<WG3813> crumbs<WG5589>.

And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, For<WG1223> this<WG5126> saying<WG3056> go thy way<WG5217>; the devil<WG1140> is gone<WG1831> out of<WG1537> thy<WG4675> daughter<WG2364>.

And<WG2532> again<WG3825>, departing<WG1831> from<WG1537> the coasts<WG3725> of Tyre<WG5184> and<WG2532> Sidon<WG4605>, he came<WG2064> unto<WG4314> the sea<WG2281> of Galilee<WG1056>, through<WG303> the midst<WG3319> of the coasts<WG3725> of Decapolis<WG1179>.

So<WG1161> they did eat<WG5315>, and<WG2532> were filled<WG5526>: and<WG2532> they took up<WG142> of the broken<WG2801> meat that was left<WG4051> seven<WG2033> baskets<WG4711>.

And<WG2532> he sighed deeply<WG389> in his<WG846> spirit<WG4151>, and saith<WG3004>, Why<WG5101> doth<WG1934> this<WG3778> generation<WG1074> seek after<WG1934> a sign<WG4592>? verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, There shall no<WG1487> sign<WG4592> be given<WG1325> unto this<WG5026> generation<WG1074>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he left<WG863> them<WG846>, and entering<WG1684> into<WG1519> the ship<WG4143> again<WG3825> departed<WG565> to<WG1519> the other side<WG4008>.


btext:
Now<WG2532> the disciples had forgotten<WG1950> to take<WG2983> bread<WG740>, neither<WG2532><WG3756> had<WG2192> they in<WG1722> the ship<WG4143> with<WG3326> them<WG1438> more than<WG1508> one<WG1520> loaf<WG740>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he charged<WG1291> them<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Take heed<WG3708>, beware<WG991> of<WG575> the leaven<WG2219> of the Pharisees<WG5330>, and<WG2532> of the leaven<WG2219> of Herod<WG2264>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they reasoned<WG1260> among<WG4314> themselves<WG240>, saying<WG3004>, It is because<WG3754> we have<WG2192> no<WG3756> bread<WG740>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when Jesus<WG2424> knew<WG1097> it, he saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> reason ye<WG1260>, because<WG3754> ye have<WG2192> no<WG3756> bread<WG740>? perceive ye<WG3539> not yet<WG3768>, neither<WG3761> understand<WG4920>? have ye<WG2192> your<WG5216> heart<WG2588> yet<WG2089> hardened<WG4456>?


btext:
Having<WG2192> eyes<WG3788>, see ye<WG991> not<WG3756>? and<WG2532> having<WG2192> ears<WG3775>, hear ye<WG191> not<WG3756>? and<WG2532> do ye<WG3421> not<WG3756> remember<WG3421>?


btext:
When<WG3753> I brake<WG2806> the five<WG4002> loaves<WG740> among<WG1519> five thousand<WG4000>, how many<WG4214> baskets<WG2894> full<WG4134> of fragments<WG2801> took ye up<WG142>? They say<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Twelve<WG1427>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when<WG3753> the seven<WG2033> among<WG1519> four thousand<WG5070>, how many<WG4214> baskets<WG4711> full<WG4138> of fragments<WG2801> took ye up<WG142>? And<WG1161> they said<WG2036>, Seven<WG2033>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, How<WG4459> is it that ye do<WG4920> not<WG3756> understand<WG4920>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he cometh<WG2064> to<WG1519> Bethsaida<WG966>; and<WG2532> they bring<WG5342> a blind man<WG5185> unto him<WG846>, and<WG2532> besought<WG3870> him<WG846> to<WG2443> touch<WG680> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG1949> the blind man<WG5185> by the hand<WG5495>, and led<WG1806> him<WG846> out of<WG1854> the town<WG2968>; and<WG2532> when he had spit<WG4429> on<WG1519> his<WG846> eyes<WG3659>, and put<WG2007> his hands<WG5495> upon him<WG846>, he asked<WG1905> him<WG846> if<WG1536> he saw<WG991> ought<WG1536>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he looked up<WG308>, and said<WG3004><WG3754>, I see<WG991> men<WG444> as<WG5613><WG3708> trees<WG1186>, walking<WG4043>.


btext:
After<WG1534> that he put<WG2007> his hands<WG5495> again<WG3825> upon<WG1909> his<WG846> eyes<WG3788>, and<WG2532> made<WG4160> him<WG846> look up<WG308>: and<WG2532> he was restored<WG600>, and<WG2532> saw<WG1689> every man<WG537> clearly<WG5081>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he sent<WG649> him<WG846> away<WG649> to<WG1519> his<WG846> house<WG3624>, saying<WG3004>, Neither<WG3366> go<WG1525> into<WG1519> the town<WG2968>, nor<WG3366> tell<WG2036> it to any<WG5100> in<WG1722> the town<WG2968>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> went out<WG1831>, and<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, into<WG1519> the towns<WG2968> of Caesarea<WG2542> Philippi<WG5376>: and<WG2532> by<WG1722> the way<WG3598> he asked<WG1905> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, saying<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Whom<WG5101> do<WG3004> men<WG444> say<WG3004> that I<WG3165> am<WG1511>?


btext:
And<WG1161> they answered<WG611>, John<WG2491> the Baptist<WG910>: but<WG1161> some<WG243> say, Elias<WG2243>; and<WG2532> others<WG243>, One<WG1520> of the prophets<WG4396>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, But<WG1161> whom<WG5101> say<WG3004> ye<WG5210> that I<WG3165> am<WG1511>? And<WG1161> Peter<WG4074> answereth<WG611> and saith<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Thou<WG4771> art<WG1488> the Christ<WG5547>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he charged<WG2008> them<WG846> that<WG2443> they should tell<WG3004> no man<WG3367> of<WG4012> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he began<WG756> to teach<WG1321> them<WG846>, that<WG3754> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> must<WG1163> suffer<WG3958> many things<WG4183>, and<WG2532> be rejected<WG593> of<WG575> the elders<WG4245>, and<WG2532> of the chief priests<WG749>, and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122>, and<WG2532> be killed<WG615>, and<WG2532> after<WG3326> three<WG5140> days<WG2250> rise again<WG450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he spake<WG2980> that saying<WG3056> openly<WG3954>. And<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> took<WG4355> him<WG846>, and began<WG756> to rebuke<WG2008> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> when he had turned about<WG1994> and<WG2532> looked<WG1492> on his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, he rebuked<WG2008> Peter<WG4074>, saying<WG3004>, Get thee<WG5217> behind<WG3694> me<WG3450>, Satan<WG4567>: for<WG3754> thou savourest<WG5426> not<WG3756> the things that be of God<WG2316>, but<WG235> the things that be of men<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he had called<WG4341> the people<WG3793> unto him with<WG4862> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> also, he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Whosoever<WG3748> will<WG2309> come<WG2064> after<WG3694> me<WG3450>, let him deny<WG533> himself<WG1438>, and<WG2532> take up<WG142> his<WG846> cross<WG4716>, and<WG2532> follow<WG190> me<WG3427>.


btext:
For<WG1063> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> will<WG2309> save<WG4982> his<WG846> life<WG5590> shall lose<WG622> it<WG846>; but<WG1161> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> shall lose<WG622> his<WG846> life<WG5590> for<WG1752> my sake<WG1700> and<WG2532> the gospel's<WG2098>, the same<WG3778> shall save<WG4982> it<WG846>.


btext:
For<WG1063> what<WG5101> shall it profit<WG5623> a man<WG444>, if<WG1437> he shall gain<WG2770> the whole<WG3650> world<WG2889>, and<WG2532> lose<WG2210> his own<WG846> soul<WG5590>?


btext:
Or<WG2228> what<WG5101> shall<WG1325> a man<WG444> give<WG1325> in exchange<WG465> for his<WG846> soul<WG5590>?


btext:
Whosoever<WG3739><WG302> therefore<WG1063> shall be ashamed<WG1870> of me<WG3165> and<WG2532> of my<WG1699> words<WG3056> in<WG1722> this<WG5026> adulterous<WG3428> and<WG2532> sinful<WG268> generation<WG1074>; of him<WG846> also<WG2532> shall<WG1870> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> be ashamed<WG1870>, when<WG3752> he cometh<WG2064> in<WG1722> the glory<WG1391> of his<WG846> Father<WG3962> with<WG3326> the holy<WG40> angels<WG32>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, That<WG3754> there be<WG1526> some<WG5100> of them that stand<WG2476> here<WG5602>, which<WG3748> shall<WG1089> not<WG3364> taste<WG1089> of death<WG2288>, till<WG2193><WG302> they have seen<WG1492> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> come<WG2064> with<WG1722> power<WG1411>.


btext:
And<WG2532> after<WG3326> six<WG1803> days<WG2250> Jesus<WG2424> taketh<WG3880> with him Peter<WG4074>, and<WG2532> James<WG2385>, and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, and<WG2532> leadeth<WG399> them<WG846> up<WG399> into<WG1519> an high<WG5308> mountain<WG3735> apart<WG2596><WG2398> by themselves<WG3441>: and<WG2532> he was transfigured<WG3339> before<WG1715> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> his<WG846> raiment<WG2440> became<WG1096> shining<WG4744>, exceeding<WG3029> white<WG3022> as<WG5613> snow<WG5510>; so as<WG3634> no<WG3756> fuller<WG1102> on<WG1909> earth<WG1093> can<WG1410> white<WG3021> them.


btext:
And<WG2532> there appeared<WG3700> unto them<WG846> Elias<WG2243> with<WG4862> Moses<WG3475>: and<WG2532> they were<WG2258> talking<WG4814> with Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> answered<WG611> and said<WG3004> to Jesus<WG2424>, Master<WG4461>, it is<WG2076> good<WG2570> for us<WG2248> to be<WG1511> here<WG5602>: and<WG2532> let us make<WG4160> three<WG5140> tabernacles<WG4633>; one<WG3391> for thee<WG4671>, and<WG2532> one<WG3391> for Moses<WG3475>, and<WG2532> one<WG3391> for Elias<WG2243>.


btext:
For<WG1063> he wist<WG1492> not<WG3756> what<WG5101> to say<WG2980>; for<WG1063> they were sore<WG2258> afraid<WG1630>.


btext:
And<WG2532> there was<WG1096> a cloud<WG3507> that overshadowed<WG1982> them<WG846>: and<WG2532> a voice<WG5456> came<WG2064> out of<WG1537> the cloud<WG3507>, saying<WG3004>, This<WG3778> is<WG2076> my<WG3450> beloved<WG27> Son<WG5207>: hear<WG191> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> suddenly<WG1819>, when they had looked round about<WG4017>, they saw<WG1492> no man<WG3762> any more<WG3765>, save<WG235> Jesus<WG2424> only<WG3441> with<WG3326> themselves<WG1438>.


btext:
And<WG1161> as they<WG846> came down<WG2597> from<WG575> the mountain<WG3735>, he charged<WG1291> them<WG846> that<WG2443> they should tell<WG1334> no man<WG3367> what things<WG3739> they had seen<WG1492>, till<WG1508><WG3752> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> were risen<WG450> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they kept<WG2902> that saying<WG3056> with<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, questioning one with another<WG4802> what<WG5101> the rising<WG450> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498> should mean<WG2076>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Why<WG3754> say<WG3004> the scribes<WG1122> that<WG3754> Elias<WG2243> must<WG1163> first<WG4412> come<WG2064>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> and told<WG2036> them<WG846>, Elias<WG2243> verily<WG3303> cometh<WG2064> first<WG4412>, and restoreth<WG600> all things<WG3956>; and<WG2532> how<WG4459> it is written<WG1125> of<WG1909> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444>, that<WG2443> he must suffer<WG3958> many things<WG4183>, and<WG2532> be set at nought<WG1847>.


btext:
But<WG235> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, That<WG3754> Elias<WG2243> is<WG2064> indeed<WG2532> come<WG2064>, and<WG2532> they have done<WG4160> unto him<WG846> whatsoever<WG3745> they listed<WG2309>, as<WG2531> it is written<WG1125> of<WG1909> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he came<WG2064> to<WG4314> his disciples<WG3101>, he saw<WG1492> a great<WG4183> multitude<WG3793> about<WG4012> them<WG846>, and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> questioning<WG4802> with them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> all<WG3956> the people<WG3793>, when they beheld<WG1492> him<WG846>, were greatly amazed<WG1568>, and<WG2532> running to<WG4370> him saluted<WG782> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he asked<WG1905> the scribes<WG1122>, What<WG5101> question ye<WG4802> with<WG4314> them<WG846>? / with them: or, among yourselves


btext:
And<WG2532> one<WG1520> of<WG1537> the multitude<WG3793> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036>, Master<WG1320>, I have brought<WG5342> unto<WG4314> thee<WG4571> my<WG3450> son<WG5207>, which hath<WG2192> a dumb<WG216> spirit<WG4151>;


btext:
And<WG2532> wheresoever<WG3699><WG302> he taketh<WG2638> him<WG846>, he teareth<WG4486> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> he foameth<WG875>, and<WG2532> gnasheth<WG5149> with his<WG846> teeth<WG3599>, and<WG2532> pineth away<WG3583>: and<WG2532> I spake<WG2036> to thy<WG4675> disciples<WG3101> that<WG2443> they should cast<WG1544> him<WG846> out<WG1544>; and<WG2532> they could<WG2480> not<WG3756>. / teareth…: or, dasheth him


btext:
He answereth<WG611> him<WG846>, and<WG1161> saith<WG3004>, O<WG5599> faithless<WG571> generation<WG1074>, how long<WG2193><WG4219> shall I be<WG2071> with<WG4314> you<WG5209>? how long<WG2193><WG4219> shall I suffer<WG430> you<WG5216>? bring<WG5342> him<WG846> unto<WG4314> me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they brought<WG5342> him<WG846> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> when he saw<WG1492> him<WG846>, straightway<WG2112> the spirit<WG4151> tare<WG4682> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> he fell<WG4098> on<WG1909> the ground<WG1093>, and wallowed<WG2947> foaming<WG875>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he asked<WG1905> his<WG846> father<WG3962>, How long<WG4214> is it<WG2076> ago<WG5550> since<WG5613> this<WG5124> came<WG1096> unto him<WG846>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Of a child<WG3812>.


btext:
And<WG2532> ofttimes<WG4178> it hath cast<WG906> him<WG846> into<WG2532><WG1519> the fire<WG4442>, and<WG2532> into<WG1519> the waters<WG5204>, to<WG2443> destroy<WG622> him<WG846>: but<WG235> if<WG1536> thou canst<WG1410> do any thing<WG1536>, have compassion<WG4697> on<WG1909> us<WG2248>, and help<WG997> us<WG2254>.


btext:
<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, If<WG1487> thou canst<WG1410> believe<WG4100>, all things<WG3956> are possible<WG1415> to him<WG846> that believeth<WG4100>.


btext:
And<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> the father<WG3962> of the child<WG3813> cried out<WG2896>, and said<WG3004> with<WG3326> tears<WG1144>, Lord<WG2962>, I believe<WG4100>; help thou<WG997> mine<WG3450> unbelief<WG570>.


btext:
When<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> saw<WG1492> that<WG3754> the people<WG3793> came running together<WG1998>, he rebuked<WG2008> the foul<WG169> spirit<WG4151>, saying<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Thou dumb<WG216> and<WG2532> deaf<WG2974> spirit<WG4151>, I<WG1473> charge<WG2004> thee<WG4671>, come<WG1831> out of<WG1537> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> enter<WG1525> no more<WG3371> into<WG1519> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the spirit cried<WG2896>, and<WG2532> rent<WG4682> him<WG846> sore<WG4183>, and came out of him<WG1831>: and<WG2532> he was<WG1096> as<WG5616> one dead<WG3498>; insomuch<WG5620> that<WG3754> many<WG4183> said<WG3004>, He is dead<WG599>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> took<WG2902> him<WG846> by the hand<WG5495>, and lifted<WG1453> him<WG846> up<WG1453>; and<WG2532> he arose<WG450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he<WG846> was come<WG1525> into<WG1519> the house<WG3624>, his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> asked<WG1905> him<WG846> privately<WG2596><WG2398>, Why<WG3754> could<WG1410> not<WG3756> we<WG2249> cast<WG1544> him<WG846> out<WG1544>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, This<WG5124> kind<WG1085> can<WG1410> come forth<WG1831> by<WG1722> nothing<WG3762>, but<WG1508> by<WG1722> prayer<WG4335> and<WG2532> fasting<WG3521>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they departed<WG1831> thence<WG1564>, and passed<WG3899> through<WG1223> Galilee<WG1056>; and<WG2532> he would<WG2309> not<WG3756> that<WG2443> any man<WG5100> should know<WG1097> it.


btext:
For<WG1063> he taught<WG1321> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, and<WG2532> said<WG3004> unto them<WG846><WG3754>, The Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> is delivered<WG3860> into<WG1519> the hands<WG5495> of men<WG444>, and<WG2532> they shall kill<WG615> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> after that he is killed<WG615>, he shall rise<WG450> the third<WG5154> day<WG2250>.

But<WG1161> they understood not<WG50> that saying<WG4487>, and<WG2532> were afraid<WG5399> to ask<WG1905> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he came<WG2064> to<WG1519> Capernaum<WG2584>: and<WG2532> being<WG1096> in<WG1722> the house<WG3614> he asked<WG1905> them<WG846>, What<WG5101> was it that ye disputed<WG1260> among<WG4314> yourselves<WG1438> by<WG1722> the way<WG3598>?


btext:
But<WG1161> they held their peace<WG4623>: for<WG1063> by<WG1722> the way<WG3598> they had disputed<WG1256> among<WG4314> themselves<WG240>, who<WG5101> should be the greatest<WG3187>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he sat down<WG2523>, and called<WG5455> the twelve<WG1427>, and<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, If any man<WG1536> desire<WG2309> to be<WG1511> first<WG4413>, the same shall be<WG2071> last<WG2078> of all<WG3956>, and<WG2532> servant<WG1249> of all<WG3956>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG2983> a child<WG3813>, and set<WG2476> him<WG846> in<WG1722> the midst<WG3319> of them<WG846>: and<WG2532> when he had taken<WG1723> him<WG846> in his arms<WG1723>, he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>,


btext:
Whosoever<WG3739><WG1437> shall receive<WG1209> one<WG1520> of such<WG5108> children<WG3813> in<WG1909> my<WG3450> name<WG3686>, receiveth<WG1209> me<WG1691>: and<WG2532> whosoever<WG3739><WG1437> shall receive<WG1209> me<WG1691>, receiveth<WG1209> not<WG3756> me<WG1691>, but<WG235> him that sent<WG649> me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG1161> John<WG2491> answered<WG611> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1320>, we saw<WG1492> one<WG5100> casting out<WG1544> devils<WG1140> in thy<WG4675> name<WG3686>, and<WG3739> he followeth<WG190> not<WG3756> us<WG2254>: and<WG2532> we forbad<WG2967> him<WG846>, because<WG3754> he followeth<WG190> not<WG3756> us<WG2254>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036>, Forbid<WG2967> him<WG846> not<WG3361>: for<WG1063> there is<WG2076> no man<WG3762> which<WG3739> shall do<WG4160> a miracle<WG1411> in<WG1909> my<WG3450> name<WG3686>, that<WG2532> can<WG1410> lightly<WG5035> speak evil<WG2551> of me<WG3165>.


btext:
For<WG1063> he that<WG3739> is<WG2076> not<WG3756> against<WG2596> us<WG2257> is<WG2076> on<WG5228> our<WG2257> part<WG5228>.


btext:
For<WG1063> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> shall give<WG4222> you<WG5209> a cup<WG4221> of water<WG5204> to drink<WG4222> in<WG1722> my<WG3450> name<WG3686>, because<WG3754> ye belong<WG2075> to Christ<WG5547>, verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, he shall<WG622> not<WG3364> lose<WG622> his<WG846> reward<WG3408>.


btext:
And<WG2532> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> shall offend<WG4624> one<WG1520> of these little ones<WG3398> that believe<WG4100> in<WG1519> me<WG1691>, it is<WG2076> better<WG2570><WG3123> for him<WG846> that<WG1487> a millstone<WG3037><WG3457> were hanged<WG4029> about<WG4012> his<WG846> neck<WG5137>, and<WG2532> he were cast<WG906> into<WG1519> the sea<WG2281>.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437> thy<WG4675> hand<WG5495> offend<WG4624> thee<WG4571>, cut<WG609> it<WG846> off<WG609>: it is<WG2076> better<WG2570> for thee<WG4671> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> life<WG2222> maimed<WG2948>, than<WG2228> having<WG2192> two<WG1417> hands<WG5495> to go<WG565> into<WG1519> hell<WG1067>, into<WG1519> the fire<WG4442> that never shall be quenched<WG762>: / offend…: or, cause thee to offend

Where<WG3699> their<WG846> worm<WG4663> dieth<WG5053> not<WG3756>, and<WG2532> the fire<WG4442> is<WG4570> not<WG3756> quenched<WG4570>.

And<WG2532> if<WG1437> thy<WG4675> foot<WG4228> offend<WG4624> thee<WG4571>, cut<WG609> it<WG846> off<WG609>: it is<WG2076> better<WG2570> for thee<WG4671> to enter<WG1525> halt<WG5560> into<WG1519> life<WG2222>, than<WG2228> having<WG2192> two<WG1417> feet<WG4228> to be cast<WG906> into<WG1519> hell<WG1067>, into<WG1519> the fire<WG4442> that never shall be quenched<WG762>: / offend…: or, cause thee to offend

And<WG2532> if<WG1437> thine<WG4675> eye<WG3788> offend<WG4624> thee<WG4571>, pluck<WG1544> it<WG846> out<WG1544>: it is<WG2076> better<WG2570> for thee<WG4671> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> with one eye<WG3442>, than<WG2228> having<WG2192> two<WG1417> eyes<WG3788> to be cast<WG906> into<WG1519> hell<WG1067> fire<WG4442>: / offend…: or, cause thee to offend


btext:
For<WG1063> every one<WG3956> shall be salted<WG233> with fire<WG4442>, and<WG2532> every<WG3956> sacrifice<WG2378> shall be salted<WG233> with salt<WG251>.


btext:
Salt<WG217> is good<WG2570>: but<WG1161> if<WG1437> the salt<WG217> have lost<WG1096> his saltness<WG358>, wherewith<WG1722><WG5101> will ye season<WG741> it<WG846>? Have<WG2192> salt<WG217> in<WG1722> yourselves<WG1438>, and<WG2532> have peace<WG1514> one<WG240> with<WG1722> another<WG240>.


btext:
And<WG2547> he arose<WG450> from thence<WG2547>, and cometh<WG2064> into<WG1519> the coasts<WG3725> of Judaea<WG2449> by<WG1223> the farther side<WG4008> of Jordan<WG2446>: and<WG2532> the people<WG3793> resort<WG4848> unto<WG4314> him<WG846> again<WG3825>; and<WG2532>, as<WG5613> he was wont<WG1486>, he taught<WG1321> them<WG846> again<WG3825>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the Pharisees<WG5330> came to him<WG4334>, and asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, Is it<WG1487> lawful<WG1832> for a man<WG435> to put away<WG630> his wife<WG1135>? tempting<WG3985> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, What<WG5101> did Moses<WG3475> command<WG1781> you<WG5213>?


btext:
And<WG1161> they said<WG2036>, Moses<WG3475> suffered<WG2010> to write<WG1125> a bill<WG975> of divorcement<WG647>, and<WG2532> to put her away<WG630>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, For<WG4314> the hardness<WG4641> of your<WG5216> heart<WG4641> he wrote<WG1125> you<WG5213> this<WG5026> precept<WG1785>.


btext:
But<WG1161> from<WG575> the beginning<WG746> of the creation<WG2937> God<WG2316> made<WG4160> them<WG846> male<WG730> and<WG2532> female<WG2338>.


btext:
For this cause<WG1752><WG5127> shall<WG2641> a man<WG444> leave<WG2641> his<WG846> father<WG3962> and<WG2532> mother<WG3384>, and<WG2532> cleave<WG4347> to<WG4314> his<WG846> wife<WG1135>;


btext:
And<WG2532> they twain<WG1417> shall be<WG2071> one<WG1519><WG3391> flesh<WG4561>: so then<WG5620> they are<WG1526> no more<WG3765> twain<WG1417>, but<WG235> one<WG3391> flesh<WG4561>.


btext:
What<WG3739> therefore<WG3767> God<WG2316> hath joined together<WG4801>, let<WG5563> not<WG3361> man<WG444> put asunder<WG5563>.


btext:
And<WG2532> in<WG1722> the house<WG3614> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> asked<WG1905> him<WG846> again<WG3825> of<WG4012> the same<WG846> matter.


btext:
And<WG2532> he saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Whosoever<WG3739><WG1437> shall put away<WG630> his<WG846> wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> marry<WG1060> another<WG243>, committeth adultery<WG3429> against<WG1909> her<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437> a woman<WG1135> shall put away<WG630> her<WG846> husband<WG435>, and<WG2532> be married<WG1060> to another<WG243>, she committeth adultery<WG3429>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they brought<WG4374> young children<WG3813> to him<WG846>, that<WG2443> he should touch<WG680> them<WG846>: and<WG1161> his disciples<WG3101> rebuked<WG2008> those that brought<WG4374> them.


btext:
But<WG1161> when Jesus<WG2424> saw<WG1492> it, he was much displeased<WG23>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Suffer<WG863> the little children<WG3813> to come<WG2064> unto<WG4314> me<WG3165>, and<WG2532> forbid<WG2967> them<WG846> not<WG3361>: for<WG1063> of such<WG5108> is<WG2076> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Whosoever<WG3739> shall<WG1209> not<WG3362> receive<WG1209> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> as<WG5613> a little child<WG3813>, he shall<WG1525> not<WG3364> enter<WG1525> therein<WG1519><WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG1723> them<WG846> up in his arms<WG1723>, put<WG5087> his hands<WG5495> upon<WG1909> them<WG846>, and blessed<WG2127> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he was gone forth<WG1607> into<WG1519> the way<WG846><WG3598>, there came<WG4370> one<WG1520> running<WG4370>, and<WG2532> kneeled<WG1120> to him<WG846>, and asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, Good<WG18> Master<WG1320>, what<WG5101> shall I do<WG4160> that<WG2443> I may inherit<WG2816> eternal<WG166> life<WG2222>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Why<WG5101> callest thou<WG3004> me<WG3165> good<WG18>? there is none<WG3762> good<WG18> but<WG1508> one<WG1520>, that is, God<WG2316>.


btext:
Thou knowest<WG1492> the commandments<WG1785>, Do<WG3431> not<WG3361> commit adultery<WG3431>, Do<WG5407> not<WG3361> kill<WG5407>, Do<WG2813> not<WG3361> steal<WG2813>, Do<WG5576> not<WG3361> bear false witness<WG5576>, Defraud<WG650> not<WG3361>, Honour<WG5091> thy<WG4675> father<WG3962> and<WG2532> mother<WG3384>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Master<WG1320>, all<WG3956> these<WG5023> have I observed<WG5442> from<WG1537> my<WG3450> youth<WG3503>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> beholding<WG1689> him<WG846> loved<WG25> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, One thing<WG1520> thou<WG4671> lackest<WG5302>: go thy way<WG5217>, sell<WG4453> whatsoever<WG3745> thou hast<WG2192>, and<WG2532> give<WG1325> to the poor<WG4434>, and<WG2532> thou shalt have<WG2192> treasure<WG2344> in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>: and<WG2532> come<WG1204>, take up<WG142> the cross<WG4716>, and follow<WG190> me<WG3427>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he was sad<WG4768> at<WG1909> that saying<WG3056>, and went away<WG565> grieved<WG3076>: for<WG1063> he had<WG2192><WG2258> great<WG4183> possessions<WG2933>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> looked round about<WG4017>, and saith<WG3004> unto his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, How<WG4459> hardly<WG1423> shall they that have<WG2192> riches<WG5536> enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>!


btext:
And<WG1161> the disciples<WG3101> were astonished<WG2284> at<WG1909> his<WG846> words<WG3056>. But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answereth<WG611> again<WG3825>, and saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Children<WG5043>, how<WG4459> hard<WG1422> is it<WG2076> for them that trust<WG3982> in<WG1909> riches<WG5536> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>!


btext:
It is<WG2076> easier<WG2123> for a camel<WG2574> to go<WG1525><WG1330> through<WG1223> the eye<WG5168> of a needle<WG4476>, than<WG2228> for a rich man<WG4145> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they were astonished<WG1605> out of measure<WG4057>, saying<WG3004> among<WG4314> themselves<WG1438><WG2532>, Who<WG5101> then can<WG1410> be saved<WG4982>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> looking upon<WG1689> them<WG846> saith<WG3004>, With<WG3844> men<WG444> it is impossible<WG102>, but<WG235> not<WG3756> with<WG3844> God<WG2316>: for<WG1063> with<WG3844> God<WG2316> all things<WG3956> are<WG2076> possible<WG1415>.


btext:
Then<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> began<WG756> to say<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Lo<WG2400>, we<WG2249> have left<WG863> all<WG3956>, and<WG2532> have followed<WG190> thee<WG4671>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, There is<WG2076> no man<WG3762> that<WG3739> hath left<WG863> house<WG3614>, or<WG2228> brethren<WG80>, or<WG2228> sisters<WG79>, or<WG2228> father<WG3962>, or<WG2228> mother<WG3384>, or<WG2228> wife<WG1135>, or<WG2228> children<WG5043>, or<WG2228> lands<WG68>, for my<WG1700> sake<WG1752>, and<WG2532> the gospel's<WG2098>,


btext:
But<WG3362> he shall receive<WG2983> an hundredfold<WG1542> now<WG3568> in<WG1722> this<WG5129> time<WG2540>, houses<WG3614>, and<WG2532> brethren<WG80>, and<WG2532> sisters<WG79>, and<WG2532> mothers<WG3384>, and<WG2532> children<WG5043>, and<WG2532> lands<WG68>, with<WG3326> persecutions<WG1375>; and<WG2532> in<WG1722> the world<WG165> to come<WG2064> eternal<WG166> life<WG2222>.


btext:
But<WG1161> many<WG4183> that are first<WG4413> shall be<WG2071> last<WG2078>; and<WG2532> the last<WG2078> first<WG4413>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they were<WG2258> in<WG1722> the way<WG3598> going up<WG305> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>; and<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> went<WG2258> before<WG4254> them<WG846>: and<WG2532> they were amazed<WG2284>; and<WG2532> as they followed<WG190>, they were afraid<WG5399>. And<WG2532> he took<WG3880> again<WG3825> the twelve<WG1427>, and began<WG756> to tell<WG3004> them<WG846> what things should<WG3195> happen<WG4819> unto him<WG846>,


btext:
Saying,<WG3754> Behold<WG2400>, we go up<WG305> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>; and<WG2532> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> shall be delivered<WG3860> unto the chief priests<WG749>, and<WG2532> unto the scribes<WG1122>; and<WG2532> they shall condemn<WG2632> him<WG846> to death<WG2288>, and<WG2532> shall deliver<WG3860> him<WG846> to the Gentiles<WG1484>:


btext:
And<WG2532> they shall mock<WG1702> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> shall scourge<WG3146> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> shall spit upon<WG1716> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> shall kill<WG615> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> the third<WG5154> day<WG2250> he shall rise again<WG450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> James<WG2385> and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, the sons<WG5207> of Zebedee<WG2199>, come<WG4365> unto him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1320>, we would<WG2309> that<WG2443> thou shouldest do<WG4160> for us<WG2254> whatsoever<WG3739><WG1437> we shall desire<WG154>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, What<WG5101> would<WG2309> ye that I<WG3165> should do<WG4160> for you<WG5213>?


btext:
<WG1161> They said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Grant<WG1325> unto us<WG2254> that<WG2443> we may sit<WG2523>, one<WG1520> on<WG1537> thy<WG4675> right hand<WG1188>, and<WG2532> the other<WG1520> on<WG1537> thy<WG4675> left hand<WG2176>, in<WG1722> thy<WG4675> glory<WG1391>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Ye know<WG1492> not<WG3756> what<WG5101> ye ask<WG154>: can ye<WG1410> drink<WG4095> of the cup<WG4221> that<WG3739> I<WG1473> drink of<WG4095>? and<WG2532> be baptized<WG907> with the baptism<WG908> that<WG3739> I<WG1473> am baptized with<WG907>?

But<WG1161> to sit<WG2523> on<WG1537> my<WG3450> right hand<WG1188> and<WG2532> on<WG1537> my<WG3450> left hand<WG2176> is<WG2076> not<WG3756> mine<WG1699> to give<WG1325>; but<WG235> it shall be given to them for whom<WG3739> it is prepared<WG2090>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when the ten<WG1176> heard<WG191> it, they began<WG756> to be much displeased<WG23> with<WG4012> James<WG2385> and<WG2532> John<WG2491>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> called<WG4341> them<WG846> to him, and saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Ye know<WG1492> that<WG3754> they which are accounted<WG1380> to rule<WG757> over the Gentiles<WG1484> exercise lordship<WG2634> over them<WG846>; and<WG2532> their<WG846> great ones<WG3173> exercise authority<WG2715> upon them<WG846>. / are…: or, think good


btext:
But<WG1161> so<WG3779> shall it<WG2071> not<WG3756> be<WG2071> among<WG1722> you<WG5213>: but<WG235> whosoever<WG3739><WG1437> will<WG2309> be<WG1096> great<WG3173> among<WG1722> you<WG5213>, shall be<WG2071> your<WG5216> minister<WG1249>:


btext:
And<WG2532> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> of you<WG5216> will<WG2309> be<WG1096> the chiefest<WG4413>, shall be<WG2071> servant<WG1401> of all<WG3956>.


btext:
For<WG1063> even<WG2532> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> came<WG2064> not<WG3756> to be ministered unto<WG1247>, but<WG235> to minister<WG1247>, and<WG2532> to give<WG1325> his<WG846> life<WG5590> a ransom<WG3083> for<WG473> many<WG4183>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they came<WG2064> to<WG1519> Jericho<WG2410>: and<WG2532> as he<WG846> went<WG1607> out of<WG575> Jericho<WG2410> with<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> and<WG2532> a great<WG2425> number of people<WG3793>, blind<WG5185> Bartimaeus<WG924>, the son<WG5207> of Timaeus<WG5090>, sat<WG2521> by<WG3844> the highway side<WG3598> begging<WG4319>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he heard<WG191> that<WG3754> it was<WG2076> Jesus<WG2424> of Nazareth<WG3480>, he began<WG756> to cry out<WG2896>, and<WG2532> say<WG3004>, Jesus<WG2424>, thou Son<WG5207> of David<WG1138>, have mercy<WG1653> on me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG2532> many<WG4183> charged<WG2008> him<WG846> that<WG2443> he should hold his peace<WG4623>: but<WG1161> he cried<WG2896> the more<WG3123> a great deal<WG4183>, Thou Son<WG5207> of David<WG1138>, have mercy<WG1653> on me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> stood still<WG2476>, and commanded<WG2036> him<WG846> to be called<WG5455>. And<WG2532> they call<WG5455> the blind man<WG5185>, saying<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Be of good comfort<WG2293>, rise<WG1453>; he calleth<WG5455> thee<WG4571>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he, casting away<WG577> his<WG846> garment<WG2440>, rose<WG450>, and came<WG2064> to<WG4314> Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, What<WG5101> wilt<WG2309> thou that I should do<WG4160> unto thee<WG4671><WG1161>? The blind man<WG5185> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Lord<WG4462>, that<WG2443> I might receive my sight<WG308>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Go thy way<WG5217>; thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> hath made<WG4982> thee<WG4571> whole<WG4982>. And<WG2532> immediately<WG2112> he received his sight<WG308>, and<WG2532> followed<WG190> Jesus<WG2424> in<WG1722> the way<WG3598>. / made…: or, saved thee


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> they came nigh<WG1448> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2419>, unto<WG1519> Bethphage<WG967> and<WG2532> Bethany<WG963>, at<WG4314> the mount<WG3735> of Olives<WG1636>, he sendeth forth<WG649> two<WG1417> of his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>,


btext:
And<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Go your way<WG5217> into<WG1519> the village<WG2968> over against<WG2713> you<WG5216>: and<WG2532> as soon as<WG2112> ye be entered<WG1531> into<WG1519> it<WG846>, ye shall find<WG2147> a colt<WG4454> tied<WG1210>, whereon<WG1909><WG3739> never<WG3762> man<WG444> sat<WG2523>; loose<WG3089> him<WG846>, and bring<WG71> him.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437> any man<WG5100> say<WG2036> unto you<WG5213>, Why<WG5101> do ye<WG4160> this<WG5124>? say ye<WG2036> that<WG3754> the Lord<WG2962> hath<WG2192> need<WG5532> of him<WG846>; and<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> he will send<WG649> him<WG846> hither<WG5602>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they went their way<WG565>, and<WG2532> found<WG2147> the colt<WG4454> tied<WG1210> by<WG4314> the door<WG2374> without<WG1854> in<WG1909> a place where two ways met<WG296>; and<WG2532> they loose<WG3089> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> certain of them<WG5100> that stood<WG2476> there<WG1563> said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, What<WG5101> do ye<WG4160>, loosing<WG3089> the colt<WG4454>?


btext:
And<WG1161> they said<WG2036> unto them<WG846> even as<WG2531> Jesus<WG2424> had commanded<WG1781>: and<WG2532> they let<WG863> them<WG846> go<WG863>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they brought<WG71> the colt<WG4454> to<WG4314> Jesus<WG2424>, and<WG2532> cast<WG1911> their<WG846> garments<WG2440> on<WG1911> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> he sat<WG2523> upon<WG1909> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> many<WG4183> spread<WG4766> their<WG846> garments<WG2440> in<WG1519> the way<WG3598>: and<WG1161> others<WG243> cut down<WG2875> branches<WG4746> off<WG1537> the trees<WG1186>, and<WG2532> strawed<WG4766> them in<WG1519> the way<WG3598>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they that went before<WG4254>, and<WG2532> they that followed<WG190>, cried<WG2896>, saying<WG3004>, Hosanna<WG5614>; Blessed<WG2127> is he that cometh<WG2064> in<WG1722> the name<WG3686> of the Lord<WG2962>:

Blessed<WG2127> be the kingdom<WG932> of our<WG2257> father<WG3962> David<WG1138>, that cometh<WG2064> in<WG1722> the name<WG3686> of the Lord<WG2962>: Hosanna<WG5614> in<WG1722> the highest<WG5310>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>, and<WG2532> into<WG1519> the temple<WG2411>: and<WG2532> when he had looked round about upon<WG4017> all things<WG3956>, and now<WG2235> the eventide<WG3798><WG5610> was come<WG5607>, he went out<WG1831> unto<WG1519> Bethany<WG963> with<WG3326> the twelve<WG1427>.


btext:
And<WG2532> on the morrow<WG1887>, when they<WG846> were come<WG1831> from<WG575> Bethany<WG963>, he was hungry<WG3983>:


btext:
And<WG2532> seeing<WG1492> a fig tree<WG4808> afar off<WG3113> having<WG2192> leaves<WG5444>, he came<WG2064>, if<WG1487> haply<WG686> he might find<WG2147> any thing<WG5100> thereon<WG1722><WG846>: and<WG2532> when he came<WG2064> to<WG1909> it<WG846>, he found<WG2147> nothing<WG3762> but<WG1508> leaves<WG5444>; for<WG1063> the time<WG2540> of figs<WG4810> was<WG2258> not<WG3756> yet.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto it<WG846>, No man<WG3367> eat<WG5315> fruit<WG2590> of<WG1537> thee<WG4675> hereafter<WG3371> for<WG1519> ever<WG165>. And<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> heard<WG191> it.


btext:
And<WG2532> they come<WG2064> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>: and<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> went<WG1525> into<WG1519> the temple<WG2411>, and began<WG756> to cast out<WG1544> them that sold<WG4453> and<WG2532> bought<WG59> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>, and<WG2532> overthrew<WG2690> the tables<WG5132> of the moneychangers<WG2855>, and<WG2532> the seats<WG2515> of them<WG846> that sold<WG4453> doves<WG4058>;


btext:
And<WG2532> would<WG863> not<WG3756> suffer<WG863> that<WG2443> any man<WG5100> should carry<WG1308> any vessel<WG4632> through<WG1223> the temple<WG2411>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he taught<WG1321>, saying<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Is it<WG1125> not<WG3756> written<WG1125><WG3754>, My<WG3450> house<WG3624> shall be called<WG2564> of all<WG3956> nations<WG1484> the house<WG3624> of prayer<WG4335>? but<WG1161> ye<WG5210> have made<WG4160> it<WG846> a den<WG4693> of thieves<WG3027>. / of all…: or, an house of prayer for all nations


btext:
And<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> chief priests<WG749> heard<WG191> it, and<WG2532> sought<WG2212> how<WG4459> they might destroy<WG622> him<WG846>: for<WG1063> they feared<WG5399> him<WG846>, because<WG3754> all<WG3956> the people<WG3793> was astonished<WG1605> at<WG1909> his<WG846> doctrine<WG1322>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> even<WG3796> was come<WG1096>, he went<WG1607> out of<WG1854> the city<WG4172>.


btext:
And<WG2532> in the morning<WG4404>, as they passed by<WG3899>, they saw<WG1492> the fig tree<WG4808> dried up<WG3583> from<WG1537> the roots<WG4491>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> calling to remembrance<WG363> saith<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Master<WG4461>, behold<WG2396>, the fig tree<WG4808> which<WG3739> thou cursedst<WG2672> is withered away<WG3583>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Have<WG2192> faith<WG4102> in God<WG2316>. / Have…: or, Have the faith of God


btext:
For<WG1063> verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, That<WG3754> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> shall say<WG2036> unto this<WG5129> mountain<WG3735>, Be thou removed<WG142>, and<WG2532> be thou cast<WG906> into<WG1519> the sea<WG2281>; and<WG2532> shall<WG1252> not<WG3361> doubt<WG1252> in<WG1722> his<WG846> heart<WG2588>, but<WG235> shall believe<WG4100> that<WG3754> those things which<WG3739> he saith<WG3004> shall come to pass<WG1096>; he<WG846> shall have<WG2071> whatsoever<WG3739><WG1437> he saith<WG2036>.


btext:
Therefore<WG1223><WG5124> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, What<WG3745> things<WG3956> soever<WG302> ye desire<WG154>, when ye pray<WG4336>, believe<WG4100> that<WG3754> ye receive<WG2983> them, and<WG2532> ye<WG5213> shall have<WG2071> them.

And<WG2532> when<WG3752> ye stand<WG4739> praying<WG4336>, forgive<WG863>, if<WG1536> ye have<WG2192> ought<WG1536> against<WG2596> any<WG5100>: that<WG2443> your<WG5216> Father<WG3962> also<WG2532> which<WG3588> is in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772> may forgive<WG863> you<WG5213> your<WG5216> trespasses<WG3900>.

But<WG1161> if<WG1487> ye<WG5210> do<WG863> not<WG3756> forgive<WG863>, neither<WG3761> will<WG863> your<WG5216> Father<WG3962> which<WG3588> is in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772> forgive<WG863> your<WG5216> trespasses<WG3900>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they come<WG2064> again<WG3825> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>: and<WG2532> as he<WG846> was walking<WG4043> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>, there come<WG2064> to<WG4314> him<WG846> the chief priests<WG749>, and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122>, and<WG2532> the elders<WG4245>,

And<WG2532> say<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, By<WG1722> what<WG4169> authority<WG1849> doest thou<WG4160> these things<WG5023>? and<WG2532> who<WG5101> gave<WG1325> thee<WG4671> this<WG5026> authority<WG1849> to<WG2443> do<WG4160> these things<WG5023>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, I will<WG1905> also<WG2504> ask<WG1905> of you<WG5209> one<WG1520> question<WG3056>, and<WG2532> answer<WG611> me<WG3427>, and<WG2532> I will tell<WG2046> you<WG5213> by<WG1722> what<WG4169> authority<WG1849> I do<WG4160> these things<WG5023>. / question: or, thing

btext:
And<WG2532> they reasoned<WG3049> with<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, saying<WG3004>, If<WG1437> we shall say<WG2036>, From<WG1537> heaven<WG3772>; he will say<WG2046>, Why<WG1302> then<WG3767> did ye<WG4100> not<WG3756> believe<WG4100> him<WG846>?


btext:
But<WG235> if<WG1437> we shall say<WG2036>, Of<WG1537> men<WG444>; they feared<WG5399> the people<WG2992>: for<WG1063> all<WG537> men counted<WG2192> John<WG2491>, that<WG3754> he was<WG2258> a prophet<WG4396> indeed<WG3689>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they answered<WG611> and said<WG3004> unto Jesus<WG2424>, We<WG1492> cannot<WG3756> tell<WG1492>.

btext:
And<WG2532> he began<WG756> to speak<WG3004> unto them<WG846> by<WG1722> parables<WG3850>. A certain man<WG444> planted<WG5452> a vineyard<WG290>, and<WG2532> set<WG4060> an hedge about<WG5418> it, and<WG2532> digged<WG3736> a place for the winefat<WG5276>, and<WG2532> built<WG3618> a tower<WG4444>, and<WG2532> let<WG1554> it<WG846> out<WG1554> to husbandmen<WG1092>, and<WG2532> went into a far country<WG589>.


btext:
And<WG2532> at the season<WG2540> he sent<WG649> to<WG4314> the husbandmen<WG1092> a servant<WG1401>, that<WG2443> he might receive<WG2983> from<WG3844> the husbandmen<WG1092> of<WG575> the fruit<WG2590> of the vineyard<WG290>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they caught<WG2983> him, and beat<WG1194> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> sent him away<WG649> empty<WG2756>.


btext:
And<WG2532> again<WG3825> he sent<WG649> unto<WG4314> them<WG846> another<WG243> servant<WG1401>; and at him<WG2548> they cast stones<WG3036>, and wounded him in the head<WG2775>, and<WG2532> sent him away<WG649> shamefully handled<WG821>.


btext:
And<WG2532> again<WG3825> he sent<WG649> another<WG243>; and him<WG2548> they killed<WG615>, and<WG2532> many<WG4183> others<WG243><WG3303>; beating some<WG1194>, and<WG1161> killing some<WG615>.


btext:
Having<WG2192> yet<WG2089> therefore<WG3767> one<WG1520> son<WG5207>, his<WG846> wellbeloved<WG27>, he sent<WG649> him<WG846> also<WG2532> last<WG2078> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, saying<WG3004><WG3754>, They will reverence<WG1788> my<WG3450> son<WG5207>.


btext:
But<WG1161> those<WG1565> husbandmen<WG1092> said<WG2036> among<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, This<WG3754><WG3778> is<WG2076> the heir<WG2818>; come<WG1205>, let us kill<WG615> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> the inheritance<WG2817> shall be<WG2071> ours<WG2257>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they took<WG2983> him<WG846>, and killed<WG615> him, and<WG2532> cast<WG1544> him out of<WG1854> the vineyard<WG290>.


btext:
What<WG5101> shall<WG4160> therefore<WG3767> the lord<WG2962> of the vineyard<WG290> do<WG4160>? he will come<WG2064> and<WG2532> destroy<WG622> the husbandmen<WG1092>, and<WG2532> will give<WG1325> the vineyard<WG290> unto others<WG243>.


btext:
And have ye<WG314> not<WG3761> read<WG314> this<WG5026> scripture<WG1124>; The stone<WG3037> which<WG3739> the builders<WG3618> rejected<WG593> is<WG3778><WG1096> become<WG1519> the head<WG2776> of the corner<WG1137>:

And<WG2532> they sought<WG2212> to lay hold<WG2902> on him<WG846>, but<WG2532> feared<WG5399> the people<WG3793>: for<WG1063> they knew<WG1097> that<WG3754> he had spoken<WG2036> the parable<WG3850> against<WG4314> them<WG846>: and<WG2532> they left<WG863> him<WG846>, and went their way<WG565>.

And<WG2532> they send<WG649> unto<WG4314> him<WG846> certain<WG5100> of the Pharisees<WG5330> and<WG2532> of the Herodians<WG2265>, to<WG2443> catch<WG64> him<WG846> in his words<WG3056>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when they were come<WG2064>, they say<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Master<WG1320>, we know<WG1492> that<WG3754> thou art<WG1488> true<WG227>, and<WG2532><WG4671> carest<WG3756><WG3199> for<WG4012> no man<WG3762>: for<WG1063> thou regardest<WG991> not<WG3756> the person<WG1519><WG4383> of men<WG444>, but<WG235> teachest<WG1321> the way<WG3598> of God<WG2316> in<WG1909> truth<WG225>: Is it lawful<WG1832> to give<WG1325> tribute<WG2778> to Caesar<WG2541>, or<WG2228> not<WG3756>?


btext:
Shall we give<WG1325>, or<WG2228> shall we not<WG3361> give<WG1325>? But<WG1161> he, knowing<WG1492> their<WG846> hypocrisy<WG5272>, said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> tempt ye<WG3985> me<WG3165>? bring<WG5342> me<WG3427> a penny<WG1220>, that<WG2443> I may see<WG1492> it. / penny: valuing of our money seven pence halfpenny


btext:
And<WG1161> they brought<WG5342> it. And<WG2532> he saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Whose<WG5101> is this<WG3778> image<WG1504> and<WG2532> superscription<WG1923>? And<WG1161> they said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Caesar's<WG2541>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Render<WG591> to Caesar<WG2541> the things that are<WG3588> Caesar's<WG2541>, and<WG2532> to God<WG2316> the things that are<WG3588> God's<WG2316>. And<WG2532> they marvelled<WG2296> at<WG1909> him<WG846>.

Then<WG2532> come<WG2064> unto<WG4314> him<WG846> the Sadducees<WG4523>, which<WG3748> say<WG3004> there is<WG1511> no<WG3361> resurrection<WG386>; and<WG2532> they asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>,


btext:
Master<WG1320>, Moses<WG3475> wrote<WG1125> unto us<WG2254>, If<WG3754><WG1437> a man's<WG5100> brother<WG80> die<WG599>, and<WG2532> leave<WG2641> his wife<WG1135> behind him, and<WG2532> leave<WG863> no<WG3361> children<WG5043>, that<WG2443> his<WG846> brother<WG80> should take<WG2983> his<WG846> wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> raise up<WG1817> seed<WG4690> unto his<WG846> brother<WG80>.


btext:
Now there were<WG2258> seven<WG2033> brethren<WG80>: and<WG2532> the first<WG4413> took<WG2983> a wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> dying<WG599> left<WG863> no<WG3756> seed<WG4690>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the second<WG1208> took<WG2983> her<WG846>, and<WG2532> died<WG599><WG2532>, neither<WG3761> left<WG863> he<WG846> any seed<WG4690>: and<WG2532> the third<WG5154> likewise<WG5615>.

And<WG2532> the seven<WG2033> had<WG2983> her<WG846>, and<WG2532> left<WG863> no<WG3756> seed<WG4690>: last<WG2078> of all<WG3956> the woman<WG1135> died<WG599> also<WG2532>.


btext:
In<WG1722> the resurrection<WG386> therefore<WG3767>, when<WG3752> they shall rise<WG450>, whose<WG5101> wife<WG1135> shall she be<WG2071> of them<WG846>? for<WG1063> the seven<WG2033> had<WG2192> her<WG846> to wife<WG1135>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Do ye<WG4105> not<WG3756> therefore<WG1223><WG5124> err<WG4105>, because ye know<WG1492> not<WG3361> the scriptures<WG1124>, neither<WG3366> the power<WG1411> of God<WG2316>?

For<WG1063> when<WG3752> they shall rise<WG450> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>, they neither<WG3777> marry<WG1060>, nor<WG3777> are given in marriage<WG1061>; but<WG235> are<WG1526> as<WG5613> the angels<WG32> which<WG3588> are in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>.

And<WG2532> one<WG1520> of the scribes<WG1122> came<WG4334>, and having heard<WG191> them<WG846> reasoning together<WG4802>, and perceiving<WG1492> that<WG3754> he had answered<WG611> them<WG846> well<WG2573>, asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, Which<WG4169> is<WG2076> the first<WG4413> commandment<WG1785> of all<WG3956>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> him<WG846>, The<WG3754> first<WG4413> of all<WG3956> the commandments<WG1785> is, Hear<WG191>, O Israel<WG2474>; The Lord<WG2962> our<WG2257> God<WG2316> is<WG2076> one<WG1520> Lord<WG2962>:

And<WG2532> thou shalt love<WG25> the Lord<WG2962> thy<WG4675> God<WG2316> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> heart<WG2588>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> soul<WG5590>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> mind<WG1271>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> strength<WG2479>: this<WG3778> is the first<WG4413> commandment<WG1785>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the second<WG1208> is like<WG3664>, namely this<WG3778><WG846>, Thou shalt love<WG25> thy<WG4675> neighbour<WG4139> as<WG5613> thyself<WG4572>. There is<WG2076> none<WG3756> other<WG243> commandment<WG1785> greater<WG3187> than these<WG5130>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the scribe<WG1122> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Well<WG2573>, Master<WG1320>, thou hast said<WG2036> the<WG1909> truth<WG225>: for<WG3754> there is<WG2076> one<WG1520> God<WG2316>; and<WG2532> there is<WG2076> none<WG3756> other<WG243> but<WG4133> he<WG846>:


btext:
And<WG2532> to love<WG25> him<WG846> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> the heart<WG2588>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> the understanding<WG4907>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> the soul<WG5590>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> the strength<WG2479>, and<WG2532> to love<WG25> his neighbour<WG4139> as<WG5613> himself<WG1438>, is<WG2076> more<WG4119> than all<WG3956> whole burnt offerings<WG3646> and<WG2532> sacrifices<WG2378>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when Jesus<WG2424> saw<WG1492> that<WG3754> he<WG846> answered<WG611> discreetly<WG3562>, he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Thou art<WG1488> not<WG3756> far<WG3112> from<WG575> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>. And<WG2532> no man<WG3762> after that<WG3765> durst<WG5111> ask<WG1905> him<WG846> any question.

And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG3004>, while he taught<WG1321> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>, How<WG4459> say<WG3004> the scribes<WG1122> that<WG3754> Christ<WG5547> is<WG2076> the Son<WG5207> of David<WG1138>?


btext:
For<WG1063> David<WG1138> himself<WG846> said<WG2036> by<WG1722> the Holy<WG40> Ghost<WG4151>, The LORD<WG2962> said<WG2036> to my<WG3450> Lord<WG2962>, Sit thou<WG2521> on<WG1537> my<WG3450> right hand<WG1188>, till<WG2193><WG302> I make<WG5087> thine<WG4675> enemies<WG2190> thy<WG4675> footstool<WG5286><WG4228>.

David<WG1138> therefore<WG3767> himself<WG846> calleth<WG3004> him<WG846> Lord<WG2962>; and<WG2532> whence<WG4159> is he<WG2076> then his<WG846> son<WG5207>? And<WG2532> the common<WG4183> people<WG3793> heard<WG191> him<WG846> gladly<WG2234>.

For<WG1063> false Christs<WG5580> and<WG2532> false prophets<WG5578> shall rise<WG1453>, and<WG2532> shall shew<WG1325> signs<WG4592> and<WG2532> wonders<WG5059>, to<WG4314> seduce<WG635>, if<WG1487> it were possible<WG1415>, even<WG2532> the elect<WG1588>.


btext:
But<WG1161> take<WG991> ye<WG5210> heed<WG991>: behold<WG2400>, I have foretold<WG4280> you<WG5213> all things<WG3956>.


btext:
But<WG235> in<WG1722> those<WG1565> days<WG2250>, after<WG3326> that<WG1565> tribulation<WG2347>, the sun<WG2246> shall be darkened<WG4654>, and<WG2532> the moon<WG4582> shall<WG1325> not<WG3756> give<WG1325> her<WG846> light<WG5338>,


btext:
And<WG2532> the stars<WG792> of heaven<WG3772> shall<WG2071> fall<WG1601>, and<WG2532> the powers<WG1411> that are in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772> shall be shaken<WG4531>.


btext:
And<WG2532> then<WG5119> shall they see<WG3700> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> coming<WG2064> in<WG1722> the clouds<WG3507> with<WG3326> great<WG4183> power<WG1411> and<WG2532> glory<WG1391>.


btext:
And<WG2532> then<WG5119> shall he send<WG649> his<WG846> angels<WG32>, and<WG2532> shall gather together<WG1996> his<WG846> elect<WG1588> from<WG1537> the four<WG5064> winds<WG417>, from<WG575> the uttermost part<WG206> of the earth<WG1093> to<WG2193> the uttermost part<WG206> of heaven<WG3772>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> learn<WG3129> a parable<WG3850> of<WG575> the fig tree<WG4808>; When<WG3752> her<WG846> branch<WG2798> is<WG1096> yet<WG2235> tender<WG527>, and<WG2532> putteth forth<WG1631> leaves<WG5444>, ye know<WG1097> that<WG3754> summer<WG2330> is<WG2076> near<WG1451>:


btext:
So<WG3779> ye<WG5210> in like manner<WG2532>, when<WG3752> ye shall see<WG1492> these things<WG5023> come to pass<WG1096>, know<WG1097> that<WG3754> it is<WG2076> nigh<WG1451>, even at<WG1909> the doors<WG2374>.


btext:
Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, that<WG3754> this<WG3778> generation<WG1074> shall<WG3928> not<WG3364> pass<WG3928>, till<WG3360><WG3739> all<WG3956> these things<WG5023> be done<WG1096>.


btext:
Heaven<WG3772> and<WG2532> earth<WG1093> shall pass away<WG3928>: but<WG1161> my<WG3450> words<WG3056> shall<WG3928> not<WG3364> pass away<WG3928>.


btext:
But<WG1161> of<WG4012> that<WG1565> day<WG2250> and<WG2532> that hour<WG5610> knoweth<WG1492> no man<WG3762>, no, not<WG3761> the angels<WG32> which<WG3588> are in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>, neither<WG3761> the Son<WG5207>, but<WG1508> the Father<WG3962>.


btext:
Take ye heed<WG991>, watch<WG69> and<WG2532> pray<WG4336>: for<WG1063> ye know<WG1492> not<WG3756> when<WG4219> the time<WG2540> is<WG2076>.


btext:
For the Son of man is as<WG5613> a man<WG444> taking a far journey<WG590>, who left<WG863> his<WG846> house<WG3614>, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> authority<WG1849> to his<WG846> servants<WG1401>, and<WG2532> to every man<WG1538> his<WG846> work<WG2041>, and<WG2532> commanded<WG1781> the porter<WG2377> to<WG2443> watch<WG1127>.


btext:
Watch ye<WG1127> therefore<WG3767>: for<WG1063> ye know<WG1492> not<WG3756> when<WG4219> the master<WG2962> of the house<WG3614> cometh<WG2064>, at even<WG3796>, or<WG2228> at midnight<WG3317>, or<WG2228> at the cockcrowing<WG219>, or<WG2228> in the morning<WG4404>:


btext:
And<WG1161> what<WG3739> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213> I say<WG3004> unto all<WG3956>, Watch<WG1127>.


btext:
After<WG1161> two<WG1417> days<WG2250> was<WG2258> the feast of the passover<WG3957>, and<WG2532> of<WG3326> unleavened bread<WG106>: and<WG2532> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> sought<WG2212> how<WG4459> they might take<WG2902> him<WG846> by<WG1722> craft<WG1388>, and put him to death<WG615>.


btext:
But<WG1161> they said<WG3004>, Not<WG3361> on<WG1722> the feast<WG1859> day, lest<WG3379> there be<WG2071> an uproar<WG2351> of the people<WG2992>.


btext:
And<WG2532> being<WG846><WG5607> in<WG1722> Bethany<WG963> in<WG1722> the house<WG3614> of Simon<WG4613> the leper<WG3015>, as he<WG846> sat at meat<WG2621>, there came<WG2064> a woman<WG1135> having<WG2192> an alabaster box<WG211> of ointment<WG3464> of spikenard<WG3487><WG4101> very precious<WG4185>; and<WG2532> she brake<WG4937> the box<WG211>, and poured<WG2708> it on<WG2596> his<WG846> head<WG2776>. / spikenard: or, pure nard, or, liquid nard


btext:
And<WG1161> there were<WG2258> some<WG5100> that had indignation<WG23> within<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, and<WG2532> said<WG3004>, Why<WG1519><WG5101> was<WG1096> this<WG3778> waste<WG684> of the ointment<WG3464> made<WG1096>?


btext:
For<WG1063> it<WG5124> might<WG1410> have been sold<WG4097> for more than<WG1883> three hundred<WG5145> pence<WG1220>, and<WG2532> have been given<WG1325> to the poor<WG4434>. And<WG2532> they murmured against<WG1690> her<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036>, Let<WG863> her<WG846> alone<WG863>; why<WG5101> trouble ye<WG2873><WG3930> her<WG846>? she hath wrought<WG2038> a good<WG2570> work<WG2041> on<WG1519> me<WG1691>.


btext:
For<WG1063> ye have<WG2192> the poor<WG4434> with<WG3326> you<WG1438> always<WG3842>, and<WG2532> whensoever<WG3752> ye will<WG2309> ye may<WG1410> do<WG4160> them<WG846> good<WG2095>: but<WG1161> me<WG1691> ye have<WG2192> not<WG3756> always<WG3842>.


btext:
She hath done<WG4160> what<WG3739> she<WG3778><WG846> could<WG2192>: she is come aforehand<WG4301> to anoint<WG3462> my<WG3450> body<WG4983> to<WG1519> the burying<WG1780>.


btext:
Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Wheresoever<WG3699><WG302> this<WG5124> gospel<WG2098> shall be preached<WG2784> throughout<WG1519> the whole<WG3650> world<WG2889>, this also<WG2532> that<WG3739> she<WG3778><WG846> hath done<WG4160> shall be spoken<WG2980> of for<WG1519> a memorial<WG3422> of her<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Judas<WG2455> Iscariot<WG2469>, one<WG1520> of the twelve<WG1427>, went<WG565> unto<WG4314> the chief priests<WG749>, to<WG2443> betray<WG3860> him<WG846> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when they heard<WG191> it, they were glad<WG5463>, and<WG2532> promised<WG1861> to give<WG1325> him<WG846> money<WG694>. And<WG2532> he sought<WG2212> how<WG4459> he might conveniently<WG2122> betray<WG3860> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the first<WG4413> day<WG2250> of unleavened bread<WG106>, when<WG3753> they killed<WG2380> the passover<WG3957>, his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Where<WG4226> wilt thou<WG2309> that we go<WG565> and prepare<WG2090> that<WG2443> thou mayest eat<WG5315> the passover<WG3957>? / killed: or, sacrificed


btext:
And<WG2532> he sendeth forth<WG649> two<WG1417> of his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, and<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Go ye<WG5217> into<WG1519> the city<WG4172>, and<WG2532> there shall meet<WG528> you<WG5213> a man<WG444> bearing<WG941> a pitcher<WG2765> of water<WG5204>: follow<WG190> him<WG846>.

And<WG2532> wheresoever<WG3699><WG1437> he shall go in<WG1525>, say ye<WG2036> to the goodman of the house<WG3617><WG3754>, The Master<WG1320> saith<WG3004>, Where<WG4226> is<WG2076> the guestchamber<WG2646>, where<WG3699> I shall eat<WG5315> the passover<WG3957> with<WG3326> my<WG3450> disciples<WG3101>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> will shew<WG1166> you<WG5213> a large<WG3173> upper room<WG508> furnished<WG4766> and prepared<WG2092>: there<WG1563> make ready<WG2090> for us<WG2254>.


btext:
And<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> went forth<WG1831>, and<WG2532> came<WG2064> into<WG1519> the city<WG4172>, and<WG2532> found<WG2147> as<WG2531> he had said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>: and<WG2532> they made ready<WG2090> the passover<WG3957>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as they<WG846> sat<WG345> and<WG2532> did eat<WG2068>, Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, One<WG1520> of<WG1537> you<WG5216> which<WG3588> eateth<WG2068> with<WG3326> me<WG1700> shall betray<WG3860> me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they began<WG756> to be sorrowful<WG3076>, and to<WG2532> say<WG3004> unto him<WG846> one by one<WG1527><WG3385>, Is it I<WG1473>? and<WG2532> another<WG243> said,<WG3385> Is it I<WG1473>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, It is one<WG1520> of<WG1537> the twelve<WG1427>, that dippeth<WG1686> with<WG3326> me<WG1700> in<WG1519> the dish<WG5165>.


btext:
The Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> indeed<WG3303> goeth<WG5217>, as<WG2531> it is written<WG1125> of<WG4012> him<WG846>: but<WG1161> woe<WG3759> to that<WG1565> man<WG444> by<WG1223> whom<WG3739> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> is betrayed<WG3860>! good<WG2570> were it<WG2258> for that<WG1565> man<WG444> if<WG1487> he<WG846> had<WG1080> never<WG3756> been born<WG1080>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as they<WG846> did eat<WG2068>, Jesus<WG2424> took<WG2983> bread<WG740>, and blessed<WG2127>, and brake<WG2806> it, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> to them<WG846>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036>, Take<WG2983>, eat<WG5315>: this<WG5124> is<WG2076> my<WG3450> body<WG4983>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG2983> the cup<WG4221>, and when he had given thanks<WG2168>, he gave<WG1325> it to them<WG846>: and<WG2532> they all<WG3956> drank<WG4095> of<WG1537> it<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, This<WG5124> is<WG2076> my<WG3450> blood<WG129> of the new<WG2537> testament<WG1242>, which<WG3588> is shed<WG1632> for<WG4012> many<WG4183>.


btext:
Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, I will<WG3364> drink<WG4095> no more<WG3754><WG3765> of<WG1537> the fruit<WG1081> of the vine<WG288>, until<WG2193> that<WG1565> day<WG2250> that<WG3752> I drink<WG4095> it<WG846> new<WG2537> in<WG1722> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846><WG3754>, All ye<WG3956> shall be offended<WG4624> because of<WG1722> me<WG1722><WG1698> this<WG5026> night<WG3571>: for<WG3754> it is written<WG1125>, I will smite<WG3960> the shepherd<WG4166>, and<WG2532> the sheep<WG4263> shall be scattered<WG1287>. / offended: or, scandalized, or, shall stumble


btext:
But<WG235> after<WG3326> that I<WG3165> am risen<WG1453>, I will go before<WG4254> you<WG5209> into<WG1519> Galilee<WG1056>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Peter<WG4074> said<WG5346> unto him<WG846>, Although<WG2532><WG1487> all<WG3956> shall be offended<WG4624>, yet<WG235> will not<WG3756> I<WG1473>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> saith<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto thee<WG4671>, That<WG3754> this day<WG4594>, even in<WG1722> this<WG5026> night<WG3571>, before<WG4250><WG2228> the cock<WG220> crow<WG5455> twice<WG1364>, thou shalt deny<WG533> me<WG3165> thrice<WG5151>.


btext:
But<WG1161> he spake<WG3004> the more<WG3123> vehemently<WG1537><WG4053>, If<WG1437> I<WG3165> should<WG1163> die with<WG4880> thee<WG4671>, I will not<WG3364> deny<WG533> thee<WG4571> in any wise<WG3364>. Likewise<WG5615> also<WG1161><WG2532> said they<WG3004> all<WG3956>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they came<WG2064> to<WG1519> a place<WG5564> which<WG3739> was named<WG3686> Gethsemane<WG1068>: and<WG2532> he saith<WG3004> to his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, Sit ye<WG2523> here<WG5602>, while<WG2193> I shall pray<WG4336>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he taketh<WG3880> with<WG3326> him<WG1438> Peter<WG4074> and<WG2532> James<WG2385> and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, and<WG2532> began<WG756> to be sore amazed<WG1568>, and<WG2532> to be very heavy<WG85>;


btext:
And<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, My<WG3450> soul<WG5590> is<WG2076> exceeding sorrowful<WG4036> unto<WG2193> death<WG2288>: tarry ye<WG3306> here<WG5602>, and<WG2532> watch<WG1127>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went forward<WG4281> a little<WG3397>, and fell<WG4098> on<WG1909> the ground<WG1093>, and<WG2532> prayed<WG4336> that<WG2443>, if<WG1487> it were<WG2076> possible<WG1415>, the hour<WG5610> might pass<WG3928> from<WG575> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004>, Abba<WG5>, Father<WG3962>, all things<WG3956> are possible<WG1415> unto thee<WG4671>; take away<WG3911> this<WG5124> cup<WG4221> from<WG575> me<WG1700>: nevertheless<WG235> not<WG3756> what<WG5101> I<WG1473> will<WG2309>, but<WG235> what<WG5101> thou<WG4771> wilt.


btext:
And<WG2532> he cometh<WG2064>, and<WG2532> findeth<WG2147> them<WG846> sleeping<WG2518>, and<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto Peter<WG4074>, Simon<WG4613>, sleepest thou<WG2518>? couldest<WG2480> not<WG3756> thou watch<WG1127> one<WG3391> hour<WG5610>?


btext:
Watch ye<WG1127> and<WG2532> pray<WG4336>, lest<WG3363> ye enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> temptation<WG3986>. The spirit<WG4151> truly<WG3303> is ready<WG4289>, but<WG1161> the flesh<WG4561> is weak<WG772>.


btext:
And<WG2532> again<WG3825> he went away<WG565>, and prayed<WG4336>, and spake<WG2036> the same<WG846> words<WG3056>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he returned<WG5290>, he found<WG2147> them<WG846> asleep<WG2518> again<WG3825>, (for<WG1063> their<WG846> eyes<WG3788> were<WG2258> heavy<WG916>,) neither<WG2532><WG3756> wist they<WG1492> what<WG5101> to answer<WG611> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he cometh<WG2064> the third time<WG5154>, and<WG2532> saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Sleep on<WG2518> now<WG3063>, and<WG2532> take your rest<WG373>: it is enough<WG566>, the hour<WG5610> is come<WG2064>; behold<WG2400>, the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> is betrayed<WG3860> into<WG1519> the hands<WG5495> of sinners<WG268>.


btext:
Rise up<WG1453>, let us go<WG71>; lo<WG2400>, he that betrayeth<WG3860> me<WG3165> is at hand<WG1448>.


btext:
And<WG2532> immediately<WG2112>, while he<WG846> yet<WG2089> spake<WG2980>, cometh<WG3854> Judas<WG2455>, one<WG1520><WG5607> of the twelve<WG1427>, and<WG2532> with<WG3326> him<WG846> a great<WG4183> multitude<WG3793> with<WG3326> swords<WG3162> and<WG2532> staves<WG3586>, from<WG3844> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> the elders<WG4245>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he that betrayed<WG3860> him<WG846> had given<WG1325> them<WG846> a token<WG4953>, saying<WG3004>, Whomsoever<WG3739><WG302> I shall kiss<WG5368>, that same<WG846> is he<WG2076>; take<WG2902> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> lead him away<WG520> safely<WG806>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as soon as he was come<WG2064>, he goeth<WG4334> straightway<WG2112> to him<WG846>, and saith<WG3004>, Master<WG4461>, master<WG4461>; and<WG2532> kissed<WG2705> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they laid<WG1911> their<WG846> hands<WG5495> on<WG1909> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> took<WG2902> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> one<WG5100> of them<WG1520> that stood by<WG3936> drew<WG4685> a sword<WG3162>, and smote<WG3817> a servant<WG1401> of the high priest<WG749>, and<WG2532> cut off<WG851> his<WG846> ear<WG5621>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Are ye come out<WG1831>, as<WG5613> against<WG1909> a thief<WG3027>, with<WG3326> swords<WG3162> and<WG2532> with staves<WG3586> to take<WG4815> me<WG3165>?


btext:
I was<WG2252> daily<WG2250><WG2596> with<WG4314> you<WG5209> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411> teaching<WG1321>, and<WG2532> ye took<WG2902> me<WG3165> not<WG3756>: but<WG235> the scriptures<WG1124> must<WG2443> be fulfilled<WG4137>.


btext:
And<WG2532> there followed<WG190> him<WG846> a<WG1520> certain<WG5100> young man<WG3495>, having a linen cloth<WG4616> cast<WG4016> about<WG1909> his naked<WG1131> body; and<WG2532> the young men<WG3495> laid hold<WG2902> on him<WG846>:


btext:
And<WG1161> he left<WG2641> the linen cloth<WG4616>, and fled<WG5343> from<WG575> them<WG846> naked<WG1131>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they led<WG520> Jesus<WG2424> away<WG520> to<WG4314> the high priest<WG749>: and<WG2532> with him<WG846> were assembled<WG4905> all<WG3956> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the elders<WG4245> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> followed<WG190> him<WG846> afar<WG3113> off<WG575>, even<WG2193> into<WG2080><WG1519> the palace<WG833> of the high priest<WG749>: and<WG2532> he sat<WG2258><WG4775> with<WG3326> the servants<WG5257>, and<WG2532> warmed himself<WG2328> at<WG4314> the fire<WG5457>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> all<WG3650> the council<WG4892> sought<WG2212> for witness<WG3141> against<WG2596> Jesus<WG2424> to<WG1519> put<WG2289> him<WG846> to death<WG2289>; and<WG2532> found<WG2147> none<WG3756>.


btext:
For<WG1063> many<WG4183> bare false witness<WG5576> against<WG2596> him<WG846>, but<WG2532> their witness<WG3141> agreed<WG2258> not<WG2470><WG3756> together<WG2258>.


btext:
And<WG2532> there arose<WG450> certain<WG5100>, and bare false witness<WG5576> against<WG2596> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>,


btext:
<WG3754> We<WG2249> heard<WG191> him<WG846> say<WG3004><WG3754>, I<WG1473> will destroy<WG2647> this<WG5126> temple<WG3485> that is made with hands<WG5499>, and<WG2532> within<WG1223> three<WG5140> days<WG2250> I will build<WG3618> another<WG243> made without hands<WG886>.


btext:
But<WG2532> neither<WG3761> so<WG3779> did<WG2470> their<WG846> witness<WG3141> agree together<WG2258><WG2470>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the high priest<WG749> stood up<WG450> in<WG1519> the midst<WG3319>, and asked<WG1905> Jesus<WG2424>, saying<WG3004>, Answerest<WG3756> thou<WG611> nothing<WG3762>? what<WG5101> is it which these<WG3778> witness<WG2649> against thee<WG4675>?


btext:
But<WG1161> he held his peace<WG4623>, and<WG2532> answered<WG611> nothing<WG3762>. Again<WG3825> the high priest<WG749> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Art<WG1488> thou<WG4771> the Christ<WG5547>, the Son<WG5207> of the Blessed<WG2128>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036>, I<WG1473> am<WG1510>: and<WG2532> ye shall see<WG3700> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> sitting<WG2521> on<WG1537> the right hand<WG1188> of power<WG1411>, and<WG2532> coming<WG2064> in<WG3326> the clouds<WG3507> of heaven<WG3772>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> the high priest<WG749> rent<WG1284> his<WG846> clothes<WG5509>, and saith<WG3004>, What<WG5101> need<WG5532> we<WG2192> any further<WG2089> witnesses<WG3144>?


btext:
Ye have heard<WG191> the blasphemy<WG988>: what<WG5101> think<WG5316> ye<WG5213>? And<WG1161> they all<WG3956> condemned<WG2632> him<WG846> to be<WG1511> guilty<WG1777> of death<WG2288>.


btext:
And<WG2532> some<WG5100> began<WG756> to spit<WG1716> on him<WG846>, and<WG2532> to cover<WG4028> his<WG846> face<WG4383>, and<WG2532> to buffet<WG2852> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> to say<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Prophesy<WG4395>: and<WG2532> the servants<WG5257> did strike<WG906> him<WG846> with the palms of their hands<WG4475>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as Peter<WG4074> was<WG5607> beneath<WG2736> in<WG1722> the palace<WG833>, there cometh<WG2064> one<WG3391> of the maids<WG3814> of the high priest<WG749>:


btext:
And<WG2532> when she saw<WG1492> Peter<WG4074> warming himself<WG2328>, she looked<WG1689> upon him<WG846>, and said<WG3004>, And<WG2532> thou<WG4771> also<WG2532> wast<WG2258> with<WG3326> Jesus<WG2424> of Nazareth<WG3479>.


btext:
But<WG1161> he denied<WG720>, saying<WG3004>, I know<WG1492> not<WG3756>, neither<WG3761> understand I<WG1987> what<WG5101> thou<WG4771> sayest<WG3004>. And<WG2532> he went<WG1831> out<WG1854> into<WG1519> the porch<WG4259>; and<WG2532> the cock<WG220> crew<WG5455>.


btext:
And<WG2532> a maid<WG3814> saw<WG1492> him<WG846> again<WG3825>, and began<WG756> to say<WG3004> to them that stood by<WG3936>, This<WG3754><WG3778> is<WG2076> one of<WG1537> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he denied it<WG720> again<WG3825>. And<WG2532> a little<WG3397> after<WG3326>, they that stood by<WG3936> said<WG3004> again<WG3825> to Peter<WG4074>, Surely<WG230> thou art<WG1488> one of<WG1537> them<WG846>: for<WG2532><WG1063> thou art<WG1488> a Galilaean<WG1057>, and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> speech<WG2981> agreeth<WG3662> thereto.


btext:
But<WG1161> he began<WG756> to curse<WG332> and<WG2532> to swear<WG3660>, saying, I know<WG3754><WG1492> not<WG3756> this<WG5126> man<WG444> of whom<WG3739> ye speak<WG3004>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the<WG1537> second time<WG1208> the cock<WG220> crew<WG5455>. And<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> called to mind<WG363> the word<WG4487> that<WG3739> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846><WG3754>, Before<WG4250> the cock<WG220> crow<WG5455> twice<WG1364>, thou shalt deny<WG533> me<WG3165> thrice<WG5151>. And<WG2532> when he thought thereon<WG1911>, he wept<WG2799>. / when…: or, he wept abundantly, or, he began to weep


btext:
And<WG2532> straightway<WG2112> in<WG1909> the morning<WG4404> the chief priests<WG749> held<WG4160> a consultation<WG4824> with<WG3326> the elders<WG4245> and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> the whole<WG3650> council<WG4892>, and bound<WG1210> Jesus<WG2424>, and carried him away<WG667>, and<WG2532> delivered<WG3860> him to Pilate<WG4091>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Pilate<WG4091> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, Art<WG1488> thou<WG4771> the King<WG935> of the Jews<WG2453>? And<WG1161> he answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Thou<WG4771> sayest<WG3004> it.


btext:
And<WG2532> the chief priests<WG749> accused<WG2723> him<WG846> of many things<WG4183>: but<WG1161> he<WG846> answered<WG611> nothing<WG3762>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> asked<WG1905> him<WG846> again<WG3825>, saying<WG3004>, Answerest thou<WG611> nothing<WG3756><WG3762>? behold<WG2396> how many things<WG4214> they witness<WG2649> against thee<WG4675>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> yet<WG3765> answered<WG611> nothing<WG3762>; so<WG5620> that Pilate<WG4091> marvelled<WG2296>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> at<WG2596> that feast<WG1859> he released<WG630> unto them<WG846> one<WG1520> prisoner<WG1198>, whomsoever<WG3746> they desired<WG154>.


btext:
And<WG1161> there was<WG2258> one named<WG3004> Barabbas<WG912>, which lay bound<WG1210> with<WG3326> them that had made insurrection with him<WG4955>, who<WG3748> had committed<WG4160> murder<WG5408> in<WG1722> the insurrection<WG4714>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the multitude<WG3793> crying aloud<WG310> began<WG756> to desire<WG154> him to do as<WG2531> he had ever<WG104> done<WG4160> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> answered<WG611> them<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Will ye<WG2309> that I release<WG630> unto you<WG5213> the King<WG935> of the Jews<WG2453>?


btext:
For<WG1063> he knew<WG1097> that<WG3754> the chief priests<WG749> had delivered<WG3860> him<WG846> for<WG1223> envy<WG5355>.


btext:
But<WG1161> the chief priests<WG749> moved<WG383> the people<WG3793>, that<WG2443> he should rather<WG3123> release<WG630> Barabbas<WG912> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> again<WG3825> unto them<WG846>, What<WG5101> will ye<WG2309> then<WG3767> that I shall do<WG4160> unto him whom<WG3739> ye call<WG3004> the King<WG935> of the Jews<WG2453>?


btext:
Then<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Why<WG1063>, what<WG5101> evil<WG2556> hath he done<WG4160>? And<WG1161> they cried out<WG2896> the more exceedingly<WG4056>, Crucify<WG4717> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> so Pilate<WG4091>, willing<WG1014> to content<WG2425><WG4160> the people<WG3793>, released<WG630> Barabbas<WG912> unto them<WG846>, and<WG2532> delivered<WG3860> Jesus<WG2424>, when he had scourged<WG5417> him, to<WG2443> be crucified<WG4717>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the soldiers<WG4757> led<WG520> him<WG846> away<WG520> into<WG2080> the hall<WG833>, called<WG3603> Praetorium<WG4232>; and<WG2532> they call together<WG4779> the whole<WG3650> band<WG4686>. / Praetorium: or, the palace, or, hall of audience


btext:
And<WG2532> they clothed<WG1746> him<WG846> with purple<WG4209>, and<WG2532> platted<WG4120> a crown<WG4735> of thorns<WG174>, and put it about<WG4060> his<WG846> head,


btext:
And<WG2532> began<WG756> to salute<WG782> him<WG846>, Hail<WG5463>, King<WG935> of the Jews<WG2453>!


btext:
And<WG2532> they smote<WG5180> him<WG846> on the head<WG2776> with a reed<WG2563>, and<WG2532> did spit<WG1716> upon him<WG846>, and<WG2532> bowing<WG5087> their knees<WG1119> worshipped<WG4352> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> they had mocked<WG1702> him<WG846>, they took off<WG1562> the purple<WG4209> from him<WG846>, and<WG2532> put<WG1746> his own<WG2398> clothes<WG2440> on<WG1746> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> led<WG1806> him<WG846> out<WG1806> to<WG2443> crucify<WG4717> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they compel<WG29> one<WG5100> Simon<WG4613> a Cyrenian<WG2956>, who passed by<WG3855>, coming<WG2064> out of<WG575> the country<WG68>, the father<WG3962> of Alexander<WG223> and<WG2532> Rufus<WG4504>, to<WG2443> bear<WG142> his<WG846> cross<WG4716>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they bring<WG5342> him<WG846> unto<WG1909> the place<WG5117> Golgotha<WG1115>, which<WG3739> is<WG2076>, being interpreted<WG3177>, The place<WG5117> of a skull<WG2898>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they gave<WG1325> him<WG846> to drink<WG4095> wine<WG3631> mingled with myrrh<WG4669>: but<WG1161> he received<WG2983> it not<WG3756>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they had crucified<WG4717> him<WG846>, they parted<WG1266> his<WG846> garments<WG2440>, casting<WG906> lots<WG2819> upon<WG1909> them<WG846>, what<WG5101> every man<WG5101> should take<WG142>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it was<WG2258> the third<WG5154> hour<WG5610>, and<WG2532> they crucified<WG4717> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the superscription<WG1923> of his<WG846> accusation<WG156> was<WG2258> written over<WG1924>, THE KING<WG935> OF THE JEWS<WG2453>.


btext:
And<WG2532> with<WG4862> him<WG846> they crucify<WG4717> two<WG1417> thieves<WG3027>; the one<WG1520> on<WG1537> his right hand<WG1188>, and<WG2532> the other<WG1520> on<WG1537> his<WG846> left<WG2176>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the scripture<WG1124> was fulfilled<WG4137>, which<WG3588> saith<WG3004>, And<WG2532> he was numbered<WG3049> with<WG3326> the transgressors<WG459>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they that passed by<WG3899> railed<WG987> on him<WG846>, wagging<WG2795> their<WG846> heads<WG2776>, and<WG2532> saying<WG3004>, Ah<WG3758>, thou that destroyest<WG2647> the temple<WG3485>, and<WG2532> buildest<WG3618> it in<WG1722> three<WG5140> days<WG2250>,


btext:
Likewise<WG1161><WG3668> also<WG2532> the chief priests<WG749> mocking<WG1702> said<WG3004> among<WG4314> themselves<WG240> with<WG3326> the scribes<WG1122>, He saved<WG4982> others<WG243>; himself<WG1438> he cannot<WG3756><WG1410> save<WG4982>.


btext:
Let<WG2597> Christ<WG5547> the King<WG935> of Israel<WG2474> descend<WG2597> now<WG3568> from<WG575> the cross<WG4716>, that<WG2443> we may see<WG1492> and<WG2532> believe<WG4100>. And<WG2532> they that were crucified<WG4957> with him<WG846> reviled<WG3679> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when<WG1096> the sixth<WG1623> hour<WG5610> was come<WG1096>, there was<WG1096> darkness<WG4655> over<WG1909> the whole<WG3650> land<WG1093> until<WG2193> the ninth<WG1766> hour<WG5610>.


btext:
And<WG2532> at the ninth<WG1766> hour<WG5610> Jesus<WG2424> cried<WG994> with a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456>, saying<WG3004>, Eloi<WG1682>, Eloi<WG1682>, lama<WG2982> sabachthani<WG4518>? which<WG3739> is<WG2076>, being interpreted<WG3177>, My<WG3450> God<WG2316>, my<WG3450> God<WG2316>, why<WG5101> hast<WG1519> thou forsaken<WG1459> me<WG3165>?


btext:
And<WG2532> some of them<WG5100> that stood by<WG3936>, when they heard<WG191> it, said<WG3004>, Behold<WG2400>, he calleth<WG5455> Elias<WG2243>.


btext:
And<WG1161> one<WG1520> ran<WG5143> and<WG2532> filled<WG1072> a spunge<WG4699> full<WG1072> of vinegar<WG3690>, and<WG5037> put it on<WG4060> a reed<WG2563>, and gave<WG4222> him<WG846> to drink<WG4222>, saying<WG3004>, Let alone<WG863>; let us see<WG1492> whether<WG1487> Elias<WG2243> will come<WG2064> to take<WG2507> him<WG846> down<WG2507>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> cried<WG863> with a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456>, and gave up the ghost<WG1606>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the veil<WG2665> of the temple<WG3485> was rent<WG4977> in<WG1519> twain<WG1417> from<WG575> the top<WG509> to<WG2193> the bottom<WG2736>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when the centurion<WG2760>, which<WG3588> stood<WG3936> over<WG1537> against<WG1727> him<WG846>, saw<WG1492> that<WG3754> he so<WG3779> cried out<WG2896>, and gave up the ghost<WG1606>, he said<WG2036>, Truly<WG230> this<WG3778> man<WG444> was<WG2258> the Son<WG5207> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
There<WG1161> were<WG2258> also<WG2532> women<WG1135> looking<WG2334> on afar<WG3113> off<WG575>: among<WG2532><WG1722> whom<WG3739> was<WG2258> Mary<WG3137> Magdalene<WG3094>, and<WG2532> Mary<WG3137> the mother<WG3384> of James<WG2385> the less<WG3398> and<WG2532> of Joses<WG2500>, and<WG2532> Salome<WG4539>;


btext:
(Who<WG3739> also<WG2532>, when<WG3753> he was<WG2258> in<WG1722> Galilee<WG1056>, followed<WG190> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> ministered<WG1247> unto him<WG846>;) and<WG2532> many<WG4183> other<WG243> women which<WG3588> came up<WG4872> with him<WG846> unto<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>.


btext:
And<WG2532> now<WG2235> when the even<WG3798> was come<WG1096>, because<WG1893> it was<WG2258> the preparation<WG3904>, that<WG3603> is<WG2076>, the day before the sabbath<WG4315>,

Joseph<WG2501> of<WG575> Arimathaea<WG707>, an honourable<WG2158> counsellor<WG1010>, which<WG3739> also<WG2532><WG846> waited<WG4327> for<WG2258> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>, came<WG2064>, and went in<WG1525> boldly<WG5111> unto<WG4314> Pilate<WG4091>, and<WG2532> craved<WG154> the body<WG4983> of Jesus<WG2424>.

And<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> marvelled<WG2296> if<WG1487> he were<WG2348> already<WG2235> dead<WG2348>: and<WG2532> calling<WG4341> unto him the centurion<WG2760>, he asked<WG1905> him<WG846> whether<WG1487> he had been<WG599> any while<WG3819> dead<WG599>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he knew<WG1097> it of<WG575> the centurion<WG2760>, he gave<WG1433> the body<WG4983> to Joseph<WG2501>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he bought<WG59> fine linen<WG4616>, and<WG2532> took him down<WG2507>, and wrapped<WG1750> him<WG846> in the linen<WG4616>, and<WG2532> laid<WG2698> him<WG846> in<WG1722> a sepulchre<WG3419> which<WG3739> was<WG2258> hewn<WG2998> out of<WG1537> a rock<WG4073>, and<WG2532> rolled<WG4351> a stone<WG3037> unto<WG1909> the door<WG2374> of the sepulchre<WG3419>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Mary<WG3137> Magdalene<WG3094> and<WG2532> Mary<WG3137> the mother of Joses<WG2500> beheld<WG2334> where<WG4226> he was laid<WG5087>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG1230> the sabbath<WG4521> was past<WG1230>, Mary<WG3137> Magdalene<WG3094>, and<WG2532> Mary<WG3137> the mother<WG3588> of James<WG2385>, and<WG2532> Salome<WG4539>, had bought<WG59> sweet spices<WG759>, that<WG2443> they might come<WG2064> and anoint<WG218> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> very<WG3029> early in the morning<WG4404> the first<WG3391> day of the week<WG4521>, they came<WG2064> unto<WG1909> the sepulchre<WG3419> at the rising<WG393> of the sun<WG2246>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they said<WG3004> among<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, Who<WG5101> shall roll<WG617> us<WG2254> away<WG617> the stone<WG3037> from<WG1537> the door<WG2374> of the sepulchre<WG3419>?


btext:
And<WG2532> when they looked<WG308>, they saw<WG2334> that<WG3754> the stone<WG3037> was rolled away<WG617>: for<WG1063> it was<WG2258> very<WG4970> great<WG3173>.


btext:
And<WG2532> entering<WG1525> into<WG1519> the sepulchre<WG3419>, they saw<WG1492> a young man<WG3495> sitting<WG2521> on<WG1722> the right side<WG1188>, clothed<WG4016> in a long white<WG3022> garment<WG4749>; and<WG2532> they were affrighted<WG1568>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he saith<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Be<WG1568> not<WG3361> affrighted<WG1568>: Ye seek<WG2212> Jesus<WG2424> of Nazareth<WG3479>, which<WG3588> was crucified<WG4717>: he is risen<WG1453>; he is<WG2076> not<WG3756> here<WG5602>: behold<WG2396> the place<WG5117> where<WG3699> they laid<WG5087> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG235> go your way<WG5217>, tell<WG2036> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> and<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> that<WG3754> he goeth before<WG4254> you<WG5209> into<WG1519> Galilee<WG1056>: there<WG1563> shall ye see<WG3700> him<WG846>, as<WG2531> he said<WG2036> unto you<WG5213>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they went out<WG1831> quickly<WG5035>, and fled<WG5343> from<WG575> the sepulchre<WG3419>; for<WG1161> they<WG846> trembled<WG2192><WG5156> and<WG2532> were amazed<WG1611>: neither<WG2532> said they<WG2036> any thing<WG3762> to any<WG3762> man; for<WG1063> they were afraid<WG5399>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> when Jesus was risen<WG450> early<WG4404> the first<WG4413> day of the week<WG4521>, he appeared<WG5316> first<WG4412> to Mary<WG3137> Magdalene<WG3094>, out of<WG575> whom<WG3739> he had cast<WG1544> seven<WG2033> devils<WG1140>.


btext:
And she<WG1565> went<WG4198> and told<WG518> them that had been<WG1096> with<WG3326> him<WG846>, as they mourned<WG3996> and<WG2532> wept<WG2799>.


btext:
And they<WG2548>, when they had heard<WG191> that<WG3754> he was alive<WG2198>, and<WG2532> had been seen<WG2300> of<WG5259> her<WG846>, believed not<WG569>.


btext:
After<WG1161><WG3326> that<WG5023> he appeared<WG5319> in<WG1722> another<WG2087> form<WG3444> unto two<WG1417> of<WG1537> them<WG846>, as they walked<WG4043>, and went<WG4198> into<WG1519> the country<WG68>.


btext:
And they<WG2548> went<WG565> and told<WG518> it unto the residue<WG3062>: neither<WG3761> believed they<WG4100> them<WG1565>.


btext:
Afterward<WG5305> he appeared<WG5319> unto the eleven<WG1733> as they<WG846> sat at meat<WG345>, and<WG2532> upbraided<WG3679> them with their<WG846> unbelief<WG570> and<WG2532> hardness of heart<WG4641>, because<WG3754> they believed<WG4100> not<WG3756> them which had seen<WG2300> him<WG846> after he was risen<WG1453>. / at meat: or, together


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Go ye<WG4198> into<WG1519> all<WG537> the world<WG2889>, and preach<WG2784> the gospel<WG2098> to every<WG3956> creature<WG2937>.


btext:
He that believeth<WG4100> and<WG2532> is baptized<WG907> shall be saved<WG4982>; but<WG1161> he that believeth not<WG569> shall be damned<WG2632>.


btext:
And<WG1161> these<WG5023> signs<WG4592> shall follow<WG3877> them that believe<WG4100>; In<WG1722> my<WG3450> name<WG3686> shall they cast out<WG1544> devils<WG1140>; they shall speak<WG2980> with new<WG2537> tongues<WG1100>;


btext:
They shall take up<WG142> serpents<WG3789>; and if<WG2579> they drink<WG4095> any<WG5100> deadly<WG2286> thing<WG5100>, it shall not<WG3364> hurt<WG984> them<WG846>; they shall lay<WG2007> hands<WG5495> on<WG1909> the sick<WG732>, and<WG2532> they shall<WG2192> recover<WG2573>.


btext:
So<WG3303> then<WG3767> after<WG3326> the Lord<WG2962> had spoken<WG2980> unto them<WG846>, he was received up<WG353> into<WG1519> heaven<WG3772>, and<WG2532> sat<WG2523> on<WG1537> the right hand<WG1188> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they<WG1565> went forth<WG1831>, and preached<WG2784> every where<WG3837>, the Lord<WG2962> working with<WG4903> them, and<WG2532> confirming<WG950> the word<WG3056> with<WG1223> signs<WG4592> following<WG1872>. Amen<WG281>.


btext:
Forasmuch<WG1895> as many<WG4183> have taken in hand<WG2021> to set forth in order<WG392> a declaration<WG1335> of<WG4012> those things<WG4229> which are most surely believed<WG4135> among<WG1722> us<WG2254>,


btext:
Even<WG2531> as they delivered<WG3860> them unto us<WG2254>, which<WG3588> from<WG575> the beginning<WG746> were<WG1096> eyewitnesses<WG845>, and<WG2532> ministers<WG5257> of the word<WG3056>;


btext:
It seemed<WG1380> good to me also<WG2504>, having had perfect<WG199> understanding<WG3877> of all things<WG3956> from the very first<WG509>, to write<WG1125> unto thee<WG4671> in order<WG2517>, most excellent<WG2903> Theophilus<WG2321>,


btext:
That<WG2443> thou mightest know<WG1921> the certainty<WG803> of<WG4012> those things<WG3056>, wherein<WG3739> thou hast been instructed<WG2727>.


btext:
There was<WG1096> in<WG1722> the days<WG2250> of Herod<WG2264>, the king<WG935> of Judaea<WG2449>, a certain<WG5100> priest<WG2409> named<WG3686> Zacharias<WG2197>, of<WG1537> the course<WG2183> of Abia<WG7>: and<WG2532> his<WG846> wife<WG1135> was of<WG1537> the daughters<WG2364> of Aaron<WG2>, and<WG2532> her<WG846> name<WG3686> was Elisabeth<WG1665>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they were<WG2258> both<WG297> righteous<WG1342> before<WG1799> God<WG2316>, walking<WG4198> in<WG1722> all<WG3956> the commandments<WG1785> and<WG2532> ordinances<WG1345> of the Lord<WG2962> blameless<WG273>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they<WG846> had<WG2258> no<WG3756> child<WG5043>, because<WG2530> that Elisabeth<WG1665> was<WG2258> barren<WG4723>, and<WG2532> they<WG846> both<WG297> were<WG2258> now well stricken<WG4260> in<WG1722> years<WG2250>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, that while<WG1722> he<WG846> executed the priest's office<WG2407> before<WG1725> God<WG2316> in<WG1722> the order<WG5010> of his<WG846> course<WG2183>,


btext:
According<WG2596> to the custom<WG1485> of the priest's office<WG2405>, his lot<WG2975> was to burn incense<WG2370> when he went<WG1525> into<WG1519> the temple<WG3485> of the Lord<WG2962>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the whole<WG3956> multitude<WG4128> of the people<WG2992> were<WG2258> praying<WG4336> without<WG1854> at the time<WG5610> of incense<WG2368>.


btext:
And<WG1161> there appeared<WG3700> unto him<WG846> an angel<WG32> of the Lord<WG2962> standing<WG2476> on<WG1537> the right side<WG1188> of the altar<WG2379> of incense<WG2368>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when Zacharias<WG2197> saw<WG1492> him, he was troubled<WG5015>, and<WG2532> fear<WG5401> fell<WG1968> upon<WG1909> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> the angel<WG32> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Fear<WG5399> not<WG3361>, Zacharias<WG2197>: for<WG1360> thy<WG4675> prayer<WG1162> is heard<WG1522>; and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> wife<WG1135> Elisabeth<WG1665> shall bear<WG1080> thee<WG4671> a son<WG5207>, and<WG2532> thou shalt call<WG2564> his<WG846> name<WG3686> John<WG2491>.


btext:
And<WG2532> thou<WG4671> shalt have<WG2071> joy<WG5479> and<WG2532> gladness<WG20>; and<WG2532> many<WG4183> shall rejoice<WG5463> at<WG1909> his<WG846> birth<WG1083>.


btext:
For<WG1063> he shall be<WG2071> great<WG3173> in the sight<WG1799> of the Lord<WG2962>, and<WG2532> shall drink<WG4095> neither<WG3364> wine<WG3631> nor<WG2532> strong drink<WG4608>; and<WG2532> he shall be filled<WG4130> with the Holy<WG40> Ghost<WG4151>, even<WG2089> from<WG1537> his<WG846> mother's<WG3384> womb<WG2836>.


btext:
And<WG2532> many<WG4183> of the children<WG5207> of Israel<WG2474> shall he turn<WG1994> to<WG1909> the Lord<WG2962> their<WG846> God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> shall go<WG4281> before<WG1799> him<WG846> in<WG1722> the spirit<WG4151> and<WG2532> power<WG1411> of Elias<WG2243>, to turn<WG1994> the hearts<WG2588> of the fathers<WG3962> to<WG1909> the children<WG5043>, and<WG2532> the disobedient<WG545> to<WG1722> the wisdom<WG5428> of the just<WG1342>; to make ready<WG2090> a people<WG2992> prepared<WG2680> for the Lord<WG2962>. / to the wisdom: or, by the wisdom


btext:
And<WG2532> Zacharias<WG2197> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the angel<WG32>, Whereby<WG2596><WG5101> shall I know<WG1097> this<WG5124>? for<WG1063> I<WG1473> am<WG1510> an old man<WG4246>, and<WG2532> my<WG3450> wife<WG1135> well stricken<WG4260> in<WG1722> years<WG2250><WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the angel<WG32> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, I<WG1473> am<WG1510> Gabriel<WG1043>, that stand<WG3936> in the presence<WG1799> of God<WG2316>; and<WG2532> am sent<WG649> to speak<WG2980> unto<WG4314> thee<WG4571>, and<WG2532> to shew<WG2097> thee<WG4671> these<WG5023> glad tidings<WG2097>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, thou<WG2071> shalt be dumb<WG4623>, and<WG2532> not<WG3361> able<WG1410> to speak<WG2980>, until<WG891> the day<WG2250> that<WG3739> these things<WG5023> shall be performed<WG1096>, because<WG473><WG3739> thou believest<WG4100> not<WG3756> my<WG3450> words<WG3056>, which<WG3748> shall be fulfilled<WG4137> in<WG1519> their<WG846> season<WG2540>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the people<WG2992> waited<WG2258><WG4328> for Zacharias<WG2197>, and<WG2532> marvelled<WG2296> that<WG1722> he<WG846> tarried so long<WG5549> in<WG1722> the temple<WG3485>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he came out<WG1831>, he could<WG1410> not<WG3756> speak<WG2980> unto them<WG846>: and<WG2532> they perceived<WG1921> that<WG3754> he had seen<WG3708> a vision<WG3701> in<WG1722> the temple<WG3485>: for<WG2532> he<WG846> beckoned<WG2258><WG1269> unto them<WG846>, and<WG2532> remained<WG1265> speechless<WG2974>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, that, as soon as<WG5613> the days<WG2250> of his<WG846> ministration<WG3009> were accomplished<WG4130>, he departed<WG565> to<WG1519> his own<WG846> house<WG3624>.


btext:
And<WG1161> after<WG3326> those<WG5025> days<WG2250> his<WG846> wife<WG1135> Elisabeth<WG1665> conceived<WG4815>, and<WG2532> hid<WG4032> herself<WG1438> five<WG4002> months<WG3376>, saying<WG3004>,


btext:
<WG3754> Thus<WG3779> hath<WG4160> the Lord<WG2962> dealt<WG4160> with me<WG3427> in<WG1722> the days<WG2250> wherein<WG3739> he looked on<WG1896> me, to take away<WG851> my<WG3450> reproach<WG3681> among<WG1722> men<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG1161> in<WG1722> the sixth<WG1623> month<WG3376> the angel<WG32> Gabriel<WG1043> was sent<WG649> from<WG5259> God<WG2316> unto<WG1519> a city<WG4172> of Galilee<WG1056>, named<WG3739><WG3686> Nazareth<WG3478>,


btext:
To<WG4314> a virgin<WG3933> espoused<WG3423> to a man<WG435> whose<WG3739> name<WG3686> was Joseph<WG2501>, of<WG1537> the house<WG3624> of David<WG1138>; and<WG2532> the virgin's<WG3933> name<WG3686> was Mary<WG3137>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the angel<WG32> came in<WG1525> unto<WG4314> her<WG846>, and said<WG2036>, Hail<WG5463>, thou that art highly favoured<WG5487>, the Lord<WG2962> is with<WG3326> thee<WG4675>: blessed<WG2127> art thou<WG4771> among<WG1722> women<WG1135>. / highly…: or, graciously accepted, or, of much grace


btext:
And<WG1161> when she saw<WG1492> him, she was troubled<WG1298> at<WG1909> his<WG846> saying<WG3056>, and<WG2532> cast in her mind<WG1260> what manner<WG4217> of salutation<WG783> this<WG3778> should be<WG1498>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the angel<WG32> said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, Fear<WG5399> not<WG3361>, Mary<WG3137>: for<WG1063> thou hast found<WG2147> favour<WG5485> with<WG3844> God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, thou shalt conceive<WG4815> in<WG1722> thy womb<WG1064>, and<WG2532> bring forth<WG5088> a son<WG5207>, and<WG2532> shalt call<WG2564> his<WG846> name<WG3686> JESUS<WG2424>.


btext:
He<WG3778> shall be<WG2071> great<WG3173>, and<WG2532> shall be called<WG2564> the Son<WG5207> of the Highest<WG5310>: and<WG2532> the Lord<WG2962> God<WG2316> shall give<WG1325> unto him<WG846> the throne<WG2362> of his<WG846> father<WG3962> David<WG1138>:


btext:
And<WG2532> he shall reign<WG936> over<WG1909> the house<WG3624> of Jacob<WG2384> for<WG1519> ever<WG165>; and<WG2532> of his<WG846> kingdom<WG932> there shall be<WG2071> no<WG3756> end<WG5056>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said<WG2036> Mary<WG3137> unto<WG4314> the angel<WG32>, How<WG4459> shall<WG2071> this<WG5124> be<WG2071>, seeing<WG1893> I know<WG1097> not<WG3756> a man<WG435>?


btext:
And<WG2532> the angel<WG32> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, The Holy<WG40> Ghost<WG4151> shall come<WG1904> upon<WG1909> thee<WG4571>, and<WG2532> the power<WG1411> of the Highest<WG5310> shall overshadow<WG1982> thee<WG4671>: therefore<WG1352> also<WG2532> that holy thing<WG40> which shall be born<WG1080> of<WG1537> thee<WG4675> shall be called<WG2564> the Son<WG5207> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, thy<WG4675> cousin<WG4773> Elisabeth<WG1665>, she<WG846> hath<WG4815> also<WG2532> conceived<WG4815> a son<WG5207> in<WG1722> her<WG846> old age<WG1094>: and<WG2532> this<WG3778> is<WG2076> the sixth<WG1623> month<WG3376> with her<WG846>, who<WG3588> was called<WG2564> barren<WG4723>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Mary<WG3137> said<WG2036>, Behold<WG2400> the handmaid<WG1399> of the Lord<WG2962>; be it<WG1096> unto me<WG3427> according<WG2596> to thy<WG4675> word<WG4487>. And<WG2532> the angel<WG32> departed<WG565> from<WG575> her<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Mary<WG3137> arose<WG450> in<WG1722> those<WG5025> days<WG2250>, and went<WG4198> into<WG1519> the hill country<WG3714> with<WG3326> haste<WG4710>, into<WG1519> a city<WG4172> of Juda<WG2448>;

And<WG2532> my<WG3450> spirit<WG4151> hath rejoiced<WG21> in<WG1909> God<WG2316> my<WG3450> Saviour<WG4990>.

He hath shewed<WG4160> strength<WG2904> with<WG1722> his<WG846> arm<WG1023>; he hath scattered<WG1287> the proud<WG5244> in the imagination<WG1271> of their<WG846> hearts<WG2588>.

He hath put down<WG2507> the mighty<WG1413> from<WG575> their seats<WG2362>, and<WG2532> exalted<WG5312> them of low degree<WG5011>.


btext:
He hath filled<WG1705> the hungry<WG3983> with good things<WG18>; and<WG2532> the rich<WG4147> he hath sent<WG1821> empty<WG2756> away<WG1821>.

He hath holpen<WG482> his<WG846> servant<WG3816> Israel<WG2474>, in remembrance<WG3415> of his mercy<WG1656>;

And<WG2532> he asked for<WG154> a writing table<WG4093>, and wrote<WG1125>, saying<WG3004>, His<WG846> name<WG3686> is<WG2076> John<WG2491>. And<WG2532> they marvelled<WG2296> all<WG3956>.

And<WG2532> his<WG846> father<WG3962> Zacharias<WG2197> was filled<WG4130> with the Holy<WG40> Ghost<WG4151>, and<WG2532> prophesied<WG4395>, saying<WG3004>,

And<WG2532> the devil<WG1228> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, All<WG537> this<WG5026> power<WG1849> will I give<WG1325> thee<WG4671>, and<WG2532> the glory<WG1391> of them<WG846>: for<WG3754> that is delivered<WG3860> unto me<WG1698>; and<WG2532> to<WG3739> whomsoever<WG1437> I will<WG2309> I give<WG1325> it<WG846>.


btext:
If<WG1437> thou<WG4771> therefore<WG3767> wilt worship<WG4352> me<WG1799><WG3450>, all<WG3956> shall be<WG2071> thine<WG4675>. / worship me: or, fall down before me


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Get thee<WG5217> behind<WG3694> me<WG3450>, Satan<WG4567>: for<WG1063> it is written<WG1125>, Thou shalt worship<WG4352> the Lord<WG2962> thy<WG4675> God<WG2316>, and<WG2532> him<WG846> only<WG3441> shalt thou serve<WG3000>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he brought<WG71> him<WG846> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2419>, and<WG2532> set<WG2476> him<WG846> on<WG1909> a pinnacle<WG4419> of the temple<WG2411>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, If<WG1487> thou be<WG1488> the Son<WG5207> of God<WG2316>, cast<WG906> thyself<WG4572> down<WG2736> from hence<WG1782>:


btext:
For<WG1063><WG3754> it is written<WG1125>, He shall give<WG1781> his<WG846> angels<WG32> charge<WG1781> over<WG4012> thee<WG4675>, to keep<WG1314> thee<WG4571>:


btext:
And<WG2532><WG3754> in<WG1909> their hands<WG5495> they shall bear<WG142> thee<WG4571> up<WG142>, lest at any time<WG3379> thou dash<WG4350> thy<WG4675> foot<WG4228> against<WG4314> a stone<WG3037>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, It is said<WG3754><WG2046>, Thou shalt<WG1598> not<WG3756> tempt<WG1598> the Lord<WG2962> thy<WG4675> God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when the devil<WG1228> had ended<WG4931> all<WG3956> the temptation<WG3986>, he departed<WG868> from<WG575> him<WG846> for<WG891> a season<WG2540>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> returned<WG5290> in<WG1722> the power<WG1411> of the Spirit<WG4151> into<WG1519> Galilee<WG1056>: and<WG2532> there went out<WG1831> a fame<WG5345> of<WG4012> him<WG846> through<WG2596> all<WG3650> the region round about<WG4066>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> taught<WG1321> in<WG1722> their<WG846> synagogues<WG4864>, being glorified<WG1392> of<WG5259> all<WG3956>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he came<WG2064> to<WG1519> Nazareth<WG3478>, where<WG3757> he had been<WG2258> brought up<WG5142>: and<WG2532>, as<WG2596> his<WG846> custom<WG1486> was<WG2596>, he went<WG1525> into<WG1519> the synagogue<WG4864> on<WG1722> the sabbath<WG4521> day<WG2250>, and<WG2532> stood up<WG450> for to read<WG314>.


btext:
And<WG2532> there was delivered<WG1929> unto him<WG846> the book<WG975> of the prophet<WG4396> Esaias<WG2268>. And<WG2532> when he had opened<WG380> the book<WG975>, he found<WG2147> the place<WG5117> where<WG3757> it was<WG2258> written<WG1125>,


btext:
The Spirit<WG4151> of the Lord<WG2962> is upon<WG1909> me<WG1691>, because<WG1752> he hath anointed<WG5548> me<WG3165> to preach the gospel<WG2097> to the poor<WG4434>; he hath sent<WG649> me<WG3165> to heal<WG2390> the brokenhearted<WG4937><WG2588>, to preach<WG2784> deliverance<WG859> to the captives<WG164>, and<WG2532> recovering of sight<WG309> to the blind<WG5185>, to set<WG649> at<WG1722> liberty<WG859> them that are bruised<WG2352>,


btext:
And<WG2532> he closed<WG4428> the book<WG975>, and he gave it again<WG591> to the minister<WG5257>, and sat down<WG2523>. And<WG2532> the eyes<WG3788> of all them<WG3956> that were<WG2258> in<WG1722> the synagogue<WG4864> were fastened<WG816> on him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he began<WG756> to say<WG3004> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, This<WG3754> day<WG4594> is<WG4137> this<WG3778> scripture<WG1124> fulfilled<WG4137> in<WG1722> your<WG5216> ears<WG3775>.


btext:
And<WG2532> all<WG3956> bare<WG3140> him<WG846> witness<WG3140>, and<WG2532> wondered<WG2296> at<WG1909> the gracious<WG5485> words<WG3056> which<WG3588> proceeded<WG1607> out of<WG1537> his<WG846> mouth<WG4750>. And<WG2532> they said<WG3004>, Is<WG2076> not<WG3756> this<WG3778> Joseph's<WG2501> son<WG5207>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Ye will<WG2046> surely<WG3843> say<WG2046> unto me<WG3427> this<WG5026> proverb<WG3850>, Physician<WG2395>, heal<WG2323> thyself<WG4572>: whatsoever<WG3745> we have heard<WG191> done<WG1096> in<WG1722> Capernaum<WG2584>, do<WG4160> also<WG2532> here<WG5602> in<WG1722> thy<WG4675> country<WG3968>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, No<WG3762> prophet<WG4396> is<WG2076> accepted<WG1184> in<WG1722> his own<WG846> country<WG3968>.


btext:
But<WG1161> I tell<WG3004> you<WG5213> of<WG1909> a truth<WG225>, many<WG4183> widows<WG5503> were<WG2258> in<WG1722> Israel<WG2474> in<WG1722> the days<WG2250> of Elias<WG2243>, when<WG3753> the heaven<WG3772> was shut up<WG2808><WG1909> three<WG5140> years<WG2094> and<WG2532> six<WG1803> months<WG3376>, when<WG5613> great<WG3173> famine<WG3042> was<WG1096> throughout<WG1909> all<WG3956> the land<WG1093>;


btext:
But<WG2532> unto<WG4314> none<WG3762> of them<WG846> was<WG3992> Elias<WG2243> sent<WG3992>, save<WG1508> unto<WG1519> Sarepta<WG4558>, a city of Sidon<WG4605>, unto<WG4314> a woman<WG1135> that was a widow<WG5503>.


btext:
And<WG2532> many<WG4183> lepers<WG3015> were<WG2258> in<WG1722> Israel<WG2474> in the time<WG1909> of Eliseus<WG1666> the prophet<WG4396>; and<WG2532> none<WG3762> of them<WG846> was cleansed<WG2511>, saving<WG1508> Naaman<WG3497> the Syrian<WG4948>.


btext:
And<WG2532> all they<WG3956> in<WG1722> the synagogue<WG4864>, when they heard<WG191> these things<WG5023>, were filled<WG4130> with wrath<WG2372>,


btext:
And<WG2532> rose up<WG450>, and thrust<WG1544> him<WG846> out of<WG1854> the city<WG4172>, and<WG2532> led<WG71> him<WG846> unto<WG2193> the brow<WG3790> of the hill<WG3735> whereon<WG1909><WG3739> their<WG846> city<WG4172> was built<WG3618>, that<WG1519> they might cast<WG2630> him<WG846> down headlong<WG2630>. / brow: or, edge


btext:
But<WG1161> he<WG846> passing<WG1330> through<WG1223> the midst<WG3319> of them<WG846> went his way<WG4198>,


btext:
And<WG2532> came down<WG2718> to<WG1519> Capernaum<WG2584>, a city<WG4172> of Galilee<WG1056>, and<WG2532> taught<WG1321> them<WG846><WG2258> on<WG1722> the sabbath days<WG4521>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they were astonished<WG1605> at<WG1909> his<WG846> doctrine<WG1322>: for<WG3754> his<WG846> word<WG3056> was<WG2258> with<WG1722> power<WG1849>.


btext:
And<WG2532> in<WG1722> the synagogue<WG4864> there was<WG2258> a man<WG444>, which had<WG2192> a spirit<WG4151> of an unclean<WG169> devil<WG1140>, and<WG2532> cried out<WG349> with a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456>,


btext:
Saying<WG3004>, Let us alone<WG1436>; what<WG5101> have we to do<WG2254> with thee<WG4671><WG2532>, thou Jesus<WG2424> of Nazareth<WG3479>? art thou come<WG2064> to destroy<WG622> us<WG2248>? I know<WG1492> thee<WG4571> who<WG5101> thou art<WG1488>; the Holy One<WG40> of God<WG2316>. / Let…: or, Away


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> rebuked<WG2008> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Hold thy peace<WG5392>, and<WG2532> come<WG1831> out of<WG1537> him<WG846>. And<WG2532> when the devil<WG1140> had thrown<WG4496> him<WG846> in<WG1519> the midst<WG3319>, he came<WG1831> out of<WG575> him<WG846>, and hurt<WG984> him<WG846> not<WG3367>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they were<WG1096> all<WG1909><WG3956> amazed<WG2285>, and<WG2532> spake<WG4814> among<WG4314> themselves<WG240>, saying<WG3004>, What<WG5101> a word<WG3056> is this<WG3778>! for<WG3754> with<WG1722> authority<WG1849> and<WG2532> power<WG1411> he commandeth<WG2004> the unclean<WG169> spirits<WG4151>, and<WG2532> they come out<WG1831>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the fame<WG2279> of<WG4012> him<WG846> went out<WG1607> into<WG1519> every<WG3956> place<WG5117> of the country round about<WG4066>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he arose<WG450> out of<WG1537> the synagogue<WG4864>, and entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> Simon's<WG4613> house<WG3614>. And<WG1161> Simon's<WG4613> wife's mother<WG3994> was<WG2258> taken with<WG4912> a great<WG3173> fever<WG4446>; and<WG2532> they besought<WG2065> him<WG846> for<WG4012> her<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he stood<WG2186> over<WG1883> her<WG846>, and rebuked<WG2008> the fever<WG4446>; and<WG2532> it left<WG863> her<WG846>: and immediately<WG3916> she arose<WG450> and<WG1161> ministered<WG1247> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> when the sun<WG2246> was setting<WG1416>, all<WG3956> they that<WG3745> had<WG2192> any sick<WG770> with divers<WG4164> diseases<WG3554> brought<WG71> them<WG846> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>; and<WG1161> he laid<WG2007> his hands<WG5495> on<WG2007> every<WG1538> one<WG1520> of them<WG846>, and healed<WG2323> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> devils<WG1140> also<WG2532> came<WG1831> out of<WG575> many<WG4183>, crying out<WG2896>, and<WG2532> saying<WG3004><WG3754>, Thou<WG4771> art<WG1488> Christ<WG5547> the Son<WG5207> of God<WG2316>. And<WG2532> he rebuking<WG2008> them suffered<WG1439> them<WG846> not<WG3756> to speak<WG2980>: for<WG3754> they knew<WG1492> that he<WG846> was<WG1511> Christ<WG5547>. / to speak…: or, to say that they knew him to be Christ


btext:
And<WG1161> when it was<WG1096> day<WG2250>, he departed<WG1831> and went<WG4198> into<WG1519> a desert<WG2048> place<WG5117>: and<WG2532> the people<WG3793> sought<WG2212> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> came<WG2064> unto<WG2193> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> stayed<WG2722> him<WG846>, that he should not<WG3361> depart<WG4198> from<WG575> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846><WG3754>, I<WG3165> must<WG1163> preach<WG2097> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> to other<WG2087> cities<WG4172> also<WG2532>: for<WG3754> therefore<WG1519><WG5124> am I sent<WG649>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, that, as<WG1722> the people<WG3793> pressed upon<WG1945> him<WG846> to hear<WG191> the word<WG3056> of God<WG2316><WG2532>, he<WG846> stood<WG2258><WG2476> by<WG3844> the lake<WG3041> of Gennesaret<WG1082>,


btext:
And<WG2532> saw<WG1492> two<WG1417> ships<WG4143> standing<WG2476> by<WG3844> the lake<WG3041>: but<WG1161> the fishermen<WG231> were gone<WG576> out of<WG575> them<WG846>, and were washing<WG637> their nets<WG1350>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he entered<WG1684> into<WG1519> one<WG1520> of the ships<WG4143>, which<WG3739> was<WG2258> Simon's<WG4613>, and prayed<WG2065> him<WG846> that he would thrust out<WG1877> a little<WG3641> from<WG575> the land<WG1093>. And<WG2532> he sat down<WG2523>, and taught<WG1321> the people<WG3793> out of<WG1537> the ship<WG4143>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> when<WG5613> he had left<WG3973> speaking<WG2980>, he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> Simon<WG4613>, Launch out<WG1877> into<WG1519> the deep<WG899>, and<WG2532> let down<WG5465> your<WG5216> nets<WG1350> for<WG1519> a draught<WG61>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Simon<WG4613> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Master<WG1988>, we have toiled<WG2872> all<WG3650><WG1223> the night<WG3571>, and have taken<WG2983> nothing<WG3762>: nevertheless<WG1161> at<WG1909> thy<WG4675> word<WG4487> I will let down<WG5465> the net<WG1350>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they had<WG4160> this<WG5124> done<WG4160>, they inclosed<WG4788> a great<WG4183> multitude<WG4128> of fishes<WG2486>: and<WG1161> their<WG846> net<WG1350> brake<WG1284>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they beckoned<WG2656> unto their partners<WG3353>, which<WG3588> were in<WG1722> the other<WG2087> ship<WG4143>, that they should come<WG2064> and help<WG4815> them<WG846>. And<WG2532> they came<WG2064>, and<WG2532> filled<WG4130> both<WG297> the ships<WG4143>, so<WG5620> that they<WG846> began to sink<WG1036>.


btext:
When<WG1161> Simon<WG4613> Peter<WG4074> saw<WG1492> it, he fell down at<WG4363> Jesus'<WG2424> knees<WG1119>, saying<WG3004>, Depart<WG1831> from<WG575> me<WG1700>; for<WG3754> I am<WG1510> a sinful<WG268> man<WG435>, O Lord<WG2962>.


btext:
For<WG1063> he<WG846> was astonished<WG4023><WG2285>, and<WG2532> all<WG3956> that were<WG4862> with him<WG846>, at<WG1909> the draught<WG61> of the fishes<WG2486> which<WG3739> they had taken<WG4815>:


btext:
And<WG1161> so<WG3668> was also<WG2532> James<WG2385>, and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, the sons<WG5207> of Zebedee<WG2199>, which<WG3739> were<WG2258> partners<WG2844> with Simon<WG4613>. And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> Simon<WG4613>, Fear<WG5399> not<WG3361>; from<WG575> henceforth<WG3568> thou shalt<WG2071> catch<WG2221> men<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they had brought<WG2609> their ships<WG4143> to<WG1909> land<WG1093>, they forsook<WG863> all<WG537>, and followed<WG190> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, when he<WG846> was<WG1511><WG1722> in<WG1722> a certain<WG3391> city<WG4172><WG2532>, behold<WG2400> a man<WG435> full<WG4134> of leprosy<WG3014>: who<WG2532> seeing<WG1492> Jesus<WG2424> fell<WG4098> on<WG1909> his face<WG4383>, and besought<WG1189> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Lord<WG2962>, if<WG1437> thou wilt<WG2309>, thou canst<WG1410> make<WG2511> me<WG3165> clean<WG2511>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he put forth<WG1614> his hand<WG5495>, and touched<WG680> him<WG846>, saying<WG2036>, I will<WG2309>: be thou clean<WG2511>. And<WG2532> immediately<WG2112> the leprosy<WG3014> departed<WG565> from<WG575> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> charged<WG3853> him<WG846> to tell<WG2036> no man<WG3367>: but<WG235> go<WG565>, and shew<WG1166> thyself<WG4572> to the priest<WG2409>, and<WG2532> offer<WG4374> for<WG4012> thy<WG4675> cleansing<WG2512>, according as<WG2531> Moses<WG3475> commanded<WG4367>, for<WG1519> a testimony<WG3142> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> so much the more<WG3123> went there<WG1330> a fame<WG3056> abroad<WG1330> of<WG4012> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> great<WG4183> multitudes<WG3793> came together<WG4905> to hear<WG191>, and<WG2532> to be healed<WG2323> by<WG5259> him<WG846> of<WG575> their<WG846> infirmities<WG769>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he withdrew<WG2258><WG5298> himself<WG846> into<WG1722> the wilderness<WG2048>, and<WG2532> prayed<WG4336>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096> on<WG1722> a certain<WG3391> day<WG2250>, as<WG2532> he<WG846> was<WG2258> teaching<WG1321>, that<WG2532> there were<WG2258> Pharisees<WG5330> and<WG2532> doctors of the law<WG3547> sitting by<WG2521>, which<WG3739> were<WG2258> come<WG2064> out of<WG1537> every<WG3956> town<WG2968> of Galilee<WG1056>, and<WG2532> Judaea<WG2449>, and<WG2532> Jerusalem<WG2419>: and<WG2532> the power<WG1411> of the Lord<WG2962> was<WG2258> present to<WG1519> heal<WG2390> them<WG846>.

And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, men<WG435> brought<WG5342> in<WG1909> a bed<WG2825> a man<WG444> which<WG3739> was<WG2258> taken with a palsy<WG3886>: and<WG2532> they sought<WG2212> means to bring<WG1533> him<WG846> in<WG1533>, and<WG2532> to lay<WG5087> him before<WG1799> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they could<WG2147> not<WG3361> find<WG2147> by<WG1223> what<WG4169> way they might bring<WG1533> him<WG846> in<WG1533> because<WG1223> of the multitude<WG3793>, they went<WG305> upon<WG1909> the housetop<WG1430>, and let<WG2524> him<WG846> down<WG2524> through<WG1223> the tiling<WG2766> with<WG4862> his couch<WG2826> into<WG1519> the midst<WG3319> before<WG1715> Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he saw<WG1492> their<WG846> faith<WG4102>, he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Man<WG444>, thy<WG4675> sins<WG266> are forgiven<WG863> thee<WG4671>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> the Pharisees<WG5330> began<WG756> to reason<WG1260>, saying<WG3004>, Who<WG5101> is<WG2076> this<WG3778> which<WG3739> speaketh<WG2980> blasphemies<WG988>? Who<WG5101> can<WG1410> forgive<WG863> sins<WG266>, but<WG1508> God<WG2316> alone<WG3441>?


btext:
But<WG1161> when Jesus<WG2424> perceived<WG1921> their<WG846> thoughts<WG1261>, he answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, What<WG5101> reason ye<WG1260> in<WG1722> your<WG5216> hearts<WG2588>?


btext:
Whether<WG5101> is<WG2076> easier<WG2123>, to say<WG2036>, Thy<WG4675> sins<WG266> be forgiven<WG863> thee<WG4671>; or<WG2228> to say<WG2036>, Rise up<WG1453> and<WG2532> walk<WG4043>?


btext:
But<WG1161> that<WG2443> ye may know<WG1492> that<WG3754> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> hath<WG2192> power<WG1849> upon<WG1909> earth<WG1093> to forgive<WG863> sins<WG266>, (he said<WG2036> unto the sick of the palsy<WG3886>,) I say<WG3004> unto thee<WG4671>, Arise<WG1453>, and<WG2532> take up<WG142> thy<WG4675> couch<WG2826>, and go<WG4198> into<WG1519> thine<WG4675> house<WG3624>.


btext:
And<WG2532> immediately<WG3916> he rose up<WG450> before<WG1799> them<WG846>, and took up<WG142> that whereon<WG1909><WG3739> he lay<WG2621>, and departed<WG565> to<WG1519> his own<WG846> house<WG3624>, glorifying<WG1392> God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they were<WG2983> all<WG537> amazed<WG1611>, and<WG2532> they glorified<WG1392> God<WG2316>, and<WG2532> were filled<WG4130> with fear<WG5401>, saying<WG3004><WG3754>, We have seen<WG1492> strange things<WG3861> to day<WG4594>.


btext:
And<WG2532> after<WG3326> these things<WG5023> he went forth<WG1831>, and<WG2532> saw<WG2300> a publican<WG5057>, named<WG3686> Levi<WG3018>, sitting<WG2521> at<WG1909> the receipt of custom<WG5058>: and<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Follow<WG190> me<WG3427>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Levi<WG3018> made<WG4160> him<WG846> a great<WG3173> feast<WG1403> in<WG1722> his own<WG846> house<WG3614>: and<WG2532> there was<WG2258> a great<WG4183> company<WG3793> of publicans<WG5057> and<WG2532> of others<WG243> that<WG3739> sat down<WG2258><WG2621> with<WG3326> them<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG2532> their<WG846> scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> Pharisees<WG5330> murmured<WG1111> against<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, saying<WG3004>, Why<WG1302> do ye eat<WG2068> and<WG2532> drink<WG4095> with<WG3326> publicans<WG5057> and<WG2532> sinners<WG268>?


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, They that are whole<WG5198> need<WG5532><WG2192> not<WG3756> a physician<WG2395>; but<WG235> they that are<WG2192> sick<WG2560>.


btext:
I came<WG2064> not<WG3756> to call<WG2564> the righteous<WG1342>, but<WG235> sinners<WG268> to<WG1519> repentance<WG3341>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Why<WG1302> do<WG3522> the disciples<WG3101> of John<WG2491> fast<WG3522> often<WG4437>, and<WG2532> make<WG4160> prayers<WG1162>, and<WG2532> likewise<WG3668> the disciples<WG3588> of the Pharisees<WG5330>; but<WG1161> thine<WG4674> eat<WG2068> and<WG2532> drink<WG4095>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846><WG3361>, Can ye<WG1410> make<WG4160> the children<WG5207> of the bridechamber<WG3567> fast<WG3522>, while<WG3739><WG1722> the bridegroom<WG3566> is<WG2076> with<WG3326> them<WG846>?


btext:
But<WG1161> the days<WG2250> will come<WG2064>, when<WG3752><WG2532> the bridegroom<WG3566> shall be taken away<WG522> from<WG575> them<WG846>, and then<WG5119> shall they fast<WG3522> in<WG1722> those<WG1565> days<WG2250>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he spake<WG3004> also<WG2532> a parable<WG3850> unto<WG4314> them<WG846><WG3754>; No man<WG3762> putteth<WG1911> a piece<WG1915> of a new<WG2537> garment<WG2440> upon<WG1909> an old<WG2440><WG3820>; if otherwise, then<WG1490> both<WG2532> the new<WG2537> maketh a rent<WG4977>, and<WG2532> the piece<WG1915> that was taken out of<WG575> the new<WG2537> agreeth<WG4856> not<WG3756> with the old<WG3820>.


btext:
And<WG2532> no man<WG3762> putteth<WG906> new<WG3501> wine<WG3631> into<WG1519> old<WG3820> bottles<WG779>; else<WG1490> the new<WG3501> wine<WG3631> will burst<WG4486> the bottles<WG779>, and<WG2532><WG846> be spilled<WG1632>, and<WG2532> the bottles<WG779> shall perish<WG622>.


btext:
But<WG235> new<WG3501> wine<WG3631> must be put<WG992> into<WG1519> new<WG2537> bottles<WG779>; and<WG2532> both<WG297> are preserved<WG4933>.


btext:
No man<WG3762> also<WG2532> having drunk<WG4095> old<WG3820> wine straightway<WG2112> desireth<WG2309> new<WG3501>: for<WG1063> he saith<WG3004>, The old<WG3820> is<WG2076> better<WG5543>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096> on<WG1722> the second<WG1207> sabbath<WG4521> after the first<WG1207>, that he<WG846> went<WG1279> through<WG1223> the corn fields<WG4702>; and<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> plucked<WG5089> the ears of corn<WG4719>, and<WG2532> did eat<WG2068>, rubbing<WG5597> them in their hands<WG5495>.


btext:
And<WG1161> certain<WG5100> of the Pharisees<WG5330> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> do ye<WG4160> that which<WG3739> is<WG1832> not<WG3756> lawful<WG1832> to do<WG4160> on<WG1722> the sabbath days<WG4521>?


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> them<WG4314><WG846> said<WG2036>, Have ye<WG314> not<WG3761> read<WG314> so much as<WG3761> this<WG5124>, what<WG3739> David<WG1138> did<WG4160>, when<WG3698> himself<WG846> was an hungred<WG3983>, and<WG2532> they which<WG3588> were<WG5607> with<WG3326> him<WG846>;


btext:
How<WG5613> he went<WG1525> into<WG1519> the house<WG3624> of God<WG2316>, and<WG2532> did take<WG2983> and<WG2532> eat<WG5315> the shewbread<WG740><WG4286>, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> also<WG2532> to them that were with<WG3326> him<WG846>; which<WG3739> it is<WG1832> not<WG3756> lawful<WG1832> to eat<WG5315> but for<WG1508> the priests<WG2409> alone<WG3441>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, That<WG3754> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> is<WG2076> Lord<WG2962> also<WG2532> of the sabbath<WG4521>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096> also<WG2532> on<WG1722> another<WG2087> sabbath<WG4521>, that he<WG846> entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> the synagogue<WG4864> and<WG2532> taught<WG1321>: and<WG2532> there<WG1563> was<WG2258> a man<WG444> whose<WG2532><WG846> right<WG1188> hand<WG5495> was<WG2258> withered<WG3584>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> Pharisees<WG5330> watched<WG3906> him<WG846>, whether<WG1487> he would heal<WG2323> on<WG1722> the sabbath day<WG4521>; that<WG2443> they might find<WG2147> an accusation<WG2724> against him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> he<WG846> knew<WG1492> their<WG846> thoughts<WG1261>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> to the man<WG444> which<WG3588> had<WG2192> the withered<WG3584> hand<WG5495>, Rise up<WG1453>, and<WG2532> stand forth<WG2476> in<WG1519> the midst<WG3319>. And<WG1161> he arose<WG450> and stood forth<WG2476>.


btext:
Then<WG3767> said<WG2036> Jesus<WG2424> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, I will ask<WG1905> you<WG5209> one thing<WG5101>; Is it lawful<WG1832> on the sabbath days<WG4521> to do good<WG15>, or<WG2228> to do evil<WG2554>? to save<WG4982> life<WG5590>, or<WG2228> to destroy<WG622> it?


btext:
And<WG2532> looking round about upon<WG4017> them<WG846> all<WG3956>, he said<WG2036> unto the man<WG444>, Stretch forth<WG1614> thy<WG4675> hand<WG5495>. And<WG1161> he did<WG4160> so<WG3779>: and<WG2532> his<WG846> hand<WG5495> was restored<WG600> whole<WG5199> as<WG5613> the other<WG243>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they<WG846> were filled<WG4130> with madness<WG454>; and<WG2532> communed<WG1255> one with another<WG4314><WG240> what<WG5101><WG302> they might do<WG4160> to Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096> in<WG1722> those<WG5025> days<WG2250>, that he went out<WG1831> into<WG1519> a mountain<WG3735> to pray<WG4336>, and<WG2532> continued all night<WG1273><WG2258> in<WG1722> prayer<WG4335> to God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> it was<WG1096> day<WG2250>, he called<WG4377> unto him his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>: and<WG2532> of<WG575> them<WG846> he chose<WG1586> twelve<WG1427>, whom<WG3739> also<WG2532> he named<WG3687> apostles<WG652>;


btext:
Simon<WG4613>, (whom<WG3739> he also<WG2532> named<WG3687> Peter<WG4074>,) and<WG2532> Andrew<WG406> his<WG846> brother<WG80>, James<WG2385> and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, Philip<WG5376> and<WG2532> Bartholomew<WG918>,


btext:
Matthew<WG3156> and<WG2532> Thomas<WG2381>, James<WG2385> the<WG3588> son of Alphaeus<WG256>, and<WG2532> Simon<WG4613> called<WG2564> Zelotes<WG2208>,


btext:
And Judas<WG2455> the brother of James<WG2385>, and<WG2532> Judas<WG2455> Iscariot<WG2469>, which<WG3739> also<WG2532> was<WG1096> the traitor<WG4273>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he came down<WG2597> with<WG3326> them<WG846>, and stood<WG2476> in<WG1909> the plain<WG3977><WG5117>, and<WG2532> the company<WG3793> of his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, and<WG2532> a great<WG4183> multitude<WG4128> of people<WG2992> out of<WG575> all<WG3956> Judaea<WG2449> and<WG2532> Jerusalem<WG2419>, and<WG2532> from the sea coast<WG3882> of Tyre<WG5184> and<WG2532> Sidon<WG4605>, which<WG3739> came<WG2064> to hear<WG191> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> to be healed<WG2390> of<WG575> their<WG846> diseases<WG3554>;


btext:
And<WG2532> they that were vexed<WG3791> with<WG5259> unclean<WG169> spirits<WG4151>: and<WG2532> they were healed<WG2323>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the whole<WG3956> multitude<WG3793> sought<WG2212> to touch<WG680> him<WG846>: for<WG3754> there went<WG1831> virtue<WG1411> out<WG3844> of him<WG846>, and<WG2532> healed<WG2390> them all<WG3956>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> lifted up<WG1869> his<WG846> eyes<WG3788> on<WG1519> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, and said<WG3004>, Blessed<WG3107> be ye poor<WG4434>: for<WG3754> yours<WG5212> is<WG2076> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
Blessed<WG3107> are ye that hunger<WG3983> now<WG3568>: for<WG3754> ye shall be filled<WG5526>. Blessed<WG3107> are ye that weep<WG2799> now<WG3568>: for<WG3754> ye shall laugh<WG1070>.


btext:
Blessed<WG3107> are ye<WG2075>, when<WG3752> men<WG444> shall hate<WG3404> you<WG5209>, and<WG2532> when<WG3752> they shall separate<WG873> you<WG5209> from their company, and<WG2532> shall reproach<WG3679> you, and<WG2532> cast out<WG1544> your<WG5216> name<WG3686> as<WG5613> evil<WG4190>, for the Son<WG5207> of man's<WG444> sake<WG1752>.


btext:
Rejoice ye<WG5463> in<WG1722> that<WG1565> day<WG2250>, and<WG2532> leap for joy<WG4640>: for<WG1063>, behold<WG2400>, your<WG5216> reward<WG3408> is great<WG4183> in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>: for<WG1063> in<WG2596> the like manner<WG5024> did<WG4160> their<WG846> fathers<WG3962> unto the prophets<WG4396>.


btext:
But<WG4133> woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213> that are rich<WG4145>! for<WG3754> ye have received<WG568> your<WG5216> consolation<WG3874>.


btext:
Woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213> that are full<WG1705>! for<WG3754> ye shall hunger<WG3983>. Woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213> that laugh<WG1070> now<WG3568>! for<WG3754> ye shall mourn<WG3996> and<WG2532> weep<WG2799>.


btext:
Woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213>, when<WG3752> all<WG3956> men<WG444> shall speak<WG2036> well<WG2573> of you<WG5209>! for<WG1063> so<WG5024><WG2596> did<WG4160> their<WG846> fathers<WG3962> to the false prophets<WG5578>.


btext:
But<WG235> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213> which<WG3588> hear<WG191>, Love<WG25> your<WG5216> enemies<WG2190>, do<WG4160> good<WG2573> to them which<WG3588> hate<WG3404> you<WG5209>,


btext:
Bless<WG2127> them that curse<WG2672> you<WG5213>, and<WG2532> pray<WG4336> for<WG5228> them which despitefully use<WG1908> you<WG5209>.


btext:
And unto him that smiteth<WG5180> thee<WG4571> on<WG1909> the one cheek<WG4600> offer<WG3930> also<WG2532> the other<WG243>; and<WG2532> him<WG575> that taketh away<WG142> thy<WG4675> cloke<WG2440> forbid<WG2967> not<WG3361> to take thy coat<WG5509> also<WG2532>.


btext:
<WG1161> Give<WG1325> to every man<WG3956> that asketh<WG154> of thee<WG4571>; and<WG2532> of<WG575> him that taketh away<WG142> thy goods<WG4674> ask<WG523> them not<WG3361> again<WG523>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as<WG2531> ye would<WG2309> that<WG2443> men<WG444> should do<WG4160> to you<WG5213>, do<WG4160> ye<WG5210> also<WG2532> to them<WG846> likewise<WG3668>.


btext:
For<WG2532> if<WG1487> ye love<WG25> them which love<WG25> you<WG5209>, what<WG4169> thank<WG5485> have<WG2076> ye<WG5213>? for<WG1063> sinners<WG268> also<WG2532> love<WG25> those that love<WG25> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437> ye do good<WG15> to them which do good<WG15> to you<WG5209>, what<WG4169> thank<WG5485> have<WG2076> ye<WG5213>? for<WG1063> sinners<WG268> also do<WG4160> even<WG2532> the same<WG846>.


btext:

Now<WG1161> when the Pharisee<WG5330> which<WG3588> had bidden<WG2564> him<WG846> saw<WG1492> it, he spake<WG2036> within<WG1722> himself<WG1438>, saying<WG3004>, This man<WG3778>, if<WG1487> he were<WG2258> a prophet<WG4396><WG302>, would have known<WG1097> who<WG5101> and<WG2532> what manner<WG4217> of woman<WG1135> this is that<WG3748> toucheth<WG680> him<WG846>: for<WG3754> she is<WG2076> a sinner<WG268>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Simon<WG4613>, I have<WG2192> somewhat<WG5100> to say<WG2036> unto thee<WG4671>. And<WG1161> he saith<WG5346>, Master<WG1320>, say on<WG2036>.


btext:
There was<WG2258> a certain<WG5100> creditor<WG1157> which had two<WG1417> debtors<WG5533>: the one<WG1520> owed<WG3784> five hundred<WG4001> pence<WG1220>, and<WG1161> the other<WG2087> fifty<WG4004>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when they<WG846> had<WG2192> nothing<WG3361> to pay<WG591>, he frankly forgave<WG5483> them both<WG297>. Tell me<WG2036> therefore<WG3767>, which<WG5101> of them<WG846> will love<WG25> him<WG846> most<WG4119>?


btext:
Simon<WG4613> answered<WG611> and<WG1161> said<WG2036>, I suppose<WG5274> that<WG3754> he, to whom<WG3739> he forgave<WG5483> most<WG4119>. And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Thou hast<WG2919> rightly<WG3723> judged<WG2919>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he turned<WG4762> to<WG4314> the woman<WG1135>, and said<WG5346> unto Simon<WG4613>, Seest thou<WG991> this<WG5026> woman<WG1135>? I entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> thine<WG4675> house<WG3614>, thou gavest me<WG1325> no<WG3756> water<WG5204> for<WG1909> my<WG3450> feet<WG4228>: but<WG1161> she<WG3778><WG846> hath washed<WG1026> my<WG3450> feet<WG4228> with tears<WG1144>, and<WG2532> wiped<WG1591> them with the hairs<WG2359> of her<WG846> head<WG2776>.


btext:
Thou gavest<WG1325> me<WG3427> no<WG3756> kiss<WG5370>: but<WG1161> this woman<WG3778><WG846> since<WG575> the time<WG3739> I came in<WG1525> hath<WG1257> not<WG3756> ceased<WG1257> to kiss<WG2705> my<WG3450> feet<WG4228>.


btext:
My<WG3450> head<WG2776> with oil<WG1637> thou didst<WG218> not<WG3756> anoint<WG218>: but<WG1161> this woman<WG3778><WG846> hath anointed<WG218> my<WG3450> feet<WG4228> with ointment<WG3464>.


btext:
Wherefore<WG3739><WG5484> I say<WG3004> unto thee<WG4671>, Her<WG846> sins<WG266>, which<WG3588> are many<WG4183>, are forgiven<WG863>; for<WG3754> she loved<WG25> much<WG4183>: but<WG1161> to whom<WG3739> little<WG3641> is forgiven<WG863>, the same loveth<WG25> little<WG3641>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they that sat at meat with him<WG4873> began<WG756> to say<WG3004> within<WG1722> themselves<WG1438>, Who<WG5101> is<WG2076> this<WG3778> that<WG3739> forgiveth<WG863> sins<WG266> also<WG2532>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> to<WG4314> the woman<WG1135>, Thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> hath saved<WG4982> thee<WG4571>; go<WG4198> in<WG1519> peace<WG1515>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096> afterward<WG1722><WG2517>, that<WG2532> he<WG846> went<WG1353> throughout every<WG2596> city<WG4172> and<WG2532> village<WG2968>, preaching<WG2784> and<WG2532> shewing the glad tidings<WG2097> of the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>: and<WG2532> the twelve<WG1427> were with<WG4862> him<WG846>,


btext:
And<WG2532> certain<WG5100> women<WG1135>, which<WG3739> had been<WG2258> healed<WG2323> of<WG575> evil<WG4190> spirits<WG4151> and<WG2532> infirmities<WG769>, Mary<WG3137> called<WG2564> Magdalene<WG3094>, out of<WG575> whom<WG3739> went<WG1831> seven<WG2033> devils<WG1140>,


btext:
And<WG2532> Joanna<WG2489> the wife<WG1135> of Chuza<WG5529> Herod's<WG2264> steward<WG2012>, and<WG2532> Susanna<WG4677>, and<WG2532> many<WG4183> others<WG2087>, which<WG3748> ministered<WG1247> unto him<WG846> of<WG575> their<WG846> substance<WG5224>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when much<WG4183> people<WG3793> were gathered together<WG4896>, and<WG2532> were come<WG1975> to<WG4314> him<WG846> out of every<WG2596> city<WG4172>, he spake<WG2036> by<WG1223> a parable<WG3850>:


btext:
A sower<WG4687> went out<WG1831> to sow<WG4687> his<WG846> seed<WG4703>: and<WG2532> as<WG1722> he<WG846> sowed<WG4687>, some<WG3739><WG3303> fell<WG4098> by<WG3844> the way side<WG3598>; and<WG2532> it was trodden down<WG2662>, and<WG2532> the fowls<WG4071> of the air<WG3772> devoured<WG2719> it<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> some<WG2087> fell<WG4098> upon<WG1909> a rock<WG4073>; and<WG2532> as soon as it was sprung up<WG5453>, it withered away<WG3583>, because<WG1223> it lacked<WG3361><WG2192> moisture<WG2429>.


btext:
And<WG2532> some<WG2087> fell<WG4098> among<WG1722><WG3319> thorns<WG173>; and<WG2532> the thorns<WG173> sprang up with it<WG4855>, and choked<WG638><WG1970> it<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> other<WG2087> fell<WG4098> on<WG1909> good<WG18> ground<WG1093>, and<WG2532> sprang up<WG5453>, and bare<WG4160> fruit<WG2590> an hundredfold<WG1542>. And when he had said<WG3004> these things<WG5023>, he cried<WG5455>, He that hath<WG2192> ears<WG3775> to hear<WG191>, let him hear<WG191>.


btext:
And<WG1161> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, What<WG5101> might<WG1498> this<WG3778> parable<WG3850> be<WG1498>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Unto you<WG5213> it is given<WG1325> to know<WG1097> the mysteries<WG3466> of the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>: but<WG1161> to others<WG3062> in<WG1722> parables<WG3850>; that<WG2443> seeing<WG991> they might<WG991> not<WG3361> see<WG991>, and<WG2532> hearing<WG191> they might<WG4920> not<WG3361> understand<WG4920>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> the parable<WG3850> is<WG2076> this<WG3778>: The seed<WG4703> is<WG2076> the word<WG3056> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
Those<WG1161> by<WG3844> the way side<WG3598> are<WG1526> they that hear<WG191>; then<WG1534> cometh<WG2064> the devil<WG1228>, and<WG2532> taketh away<WG142> the word<WG3056> out of<WG575> their<WG846> hearts<WG2588>, lest<WG3363> they should believe<WG4100> and be saved<WG4982>.


btext:
<WG1161> They on<WG1909> the rock<WG4073> are they, which<WG3739>, when<WG3752> they hear<WG191>, receive<WG1209> the word<WG3056> with<WG3326> joy<WG5479>; and<WG2532> these<WG3778> have<WG2192> no<WG3756> root<WG4491>, which<WG3739> for<WG4314> a while<WG2540> believe<WG4100>, and<WG2532> in<WG1722> time<WG2540> of temptation<WG3986> fall away<WG868>.


btext:
And<WG1161> that which fell<WG4098> among<WG1519> thorns<WG173> are<WG1526> they<WG3778>, which, when they have heard<WG191>, go forth<WG4198>, and<WG2532> are choked<WG4846> with<WG5259> cares<WG3308> and<WG2532> riches<WG4149> and<WG2532> pleasures<WG2237> of this life<WG979>, and<WG2532> bring<WG5052> no<WG3756> fruit to perfection<WG5052>.


btext:
But<WG1161> that on<WG1722> the good<WG2570> ground<WG1093> are<WG1526> they<WG3778>, which<WG3748> in<WG1722> an honest<WG2570> and<WG2532> good<WG18> heart<WG2588>, having heard<WG191> the word<WG3056>, keep<WG2722> it, and<WG2532> bring forth fruit<WG2592> with<WG1722> patience<WG5281>.


btext:
<WG1161> No man<WG3762>, when he hath lighted<WG681> a candle<WG3088>, covereth<WG2572> it<WG846> with a vessel<WG4632>, or<WG2228> putteth<WG5087> it under<WG5270> a bed<WG2825>; but<WG235> setteth<WG2007> it on<WG1909> a candlestick<WG3087>, that<WG2443> they which enter in<WG1531> may see<WG991> the light<WG5457>.


btext:
For<WG1063> nothing<WG3756> is<WG2076> secret<WG2927>, that<WG3739> shall<WG1096> not<WG3756> be made<WG1096> manifest<WG5318>; neither<WG3761> any thing hid<WG614>, that<WG3739> shall<WG1097> not<WG3756> be known<WG1097> and<WG2532> come<WG2064> abroad<WG1519><WG5318>.


btext:
Take heed<WG991> therefore<WG3767> how<WG4459> ye hear<WG191>: for<WG1063> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> hath<WG2192>, to him<WG846> shall be given<WG1325>; and<WG2532> whosoever<WG3739><WG302> hath<WG2192> not<WG3361>, from<WG575> him<WG846> shall be taken<WG142> even<WG2532> that which<WG3739> he seemeth<WG1380> to have<WG2192>. / seemeth…: or, thinketh that he hath


btext:
Then<WG1161> came<WG3854> to<WG4314> him<WG846> his mother<WG3384> and<WG2532> his<WG846> brethren<WG80>, and<WG2532> could<WG1410> not<WG3756> come<WG4940> at him<WG846> for<WG1223> the press<WG3793>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it was told<WG518> him<WG846> by certain which said<WG3004>, Thy<WG4675> mother<WG3384> and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> brethren<WG80> stand<WG2476> without<WG1854>, desiring<WG2309> to see<WG1492> thee<WG4571>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, My<WG3450> mother<WG3384> and<WG2532> my<WG3450> brethren<WG80> are<WG1526> these<WG3778> which<WG3588> hear<WG191> the word<WG3056> of God<WG2316>, and<WG2532> do<WG4160> it<WG846>.


btext:
Now<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096> on<WG1722> a certain<WG3391> day<WG2250>, that<WG2532> he<WG846> went<WG1684> into<WG1519> a ship<WG4143> with<WG2532> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>: and<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Let us go over<WG1330> unto<WG1519> the other side<WG4008> of the lake<WG3041>. And<WG2532> they launched forth<WG321>.


btext:
But<WG1161> as they<WG846> sailed<WG4126> he fell asleep<WG879>: and<WG2532> there came down<WG2597> a storm<WG2978> of wind<WG417> on<WG1519> the lake<WG3041>; and<WG2532> they were filled<WG4845> with water, and<WG2532> were in jeopardy<WG2793>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they came to him<WG4334>, and awoke<WG1326> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1988>, master<WG1988>, we perish<WG622>. Then<WG1161> he arose<WG1453>, and rebuked<WG2008> the wind<WG417> and<WG2532> the raging<WG2830> of the water<WG5204>: and<WG2532> they ceased<WG3973>, and<WG2532> there was<WG1096> a calm<WG1055>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Where<WG4226> is<WG2076> your<WG5216> faith<WG4102>? And<WG1161> they being afraid<WG5399> wondered<WG2296>, saying<WG3004> one to another<WG4314><WG240>, What manner of man<WG5101><WG686> is<WG2076> this<WG3778>! for<WG3754> he commandeth<WG2004> even<WG2532> the winds<WG417> and<WG2532> water<WG5204>, and<WG2532> they obey<WG5219> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they arrived<WG2668> at<WG1519> the country<WG5561> of the Gadarenes<WG1046>, which<WG3748> is<WG2076> over against<WG495> Galilee<WG1056>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he<WG846> went forth<WG1831> to<WG1909> land<WG1093>, there met<WG5221> him<WG846> out of<WG1537> the city<WG4172> a certain<WG5100> man<WG435>, which<WG3739> had<WG2192> devils<WG1140> long<WG1537><WG2425> time<WG5550>, and<WG2532> ware<WG1737> no<WG3756> clothes<WG2440>, neither<WG2532><WG3756> abode<WG3306> in<WG1722> any house<WG3614>, but<WG235> in<WG1722> the tombs<WG3418>.


btext:
When<WG1161> he saw<WG1492> Jesus<WG2424>, he cried out<WG349>, and<WG2532> fell down before<WG4363> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> with a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456> said<WG2036>, What<WG5101> have I<WG1698> to do with<WG2532> thee<WG4671>, Jesus<WG2424>, thou Son<WG5207> of God<WG2316> most high<WG5310>? I beseech<WG1189> thee<WG4675>, torment<WG928> me<WG3165> not<WG3361>.


btext:
(For<WG1063> he had commanded<WG3853><WG3853> the unclean<WG169> spirit<WG4151> to come<WG1831> out of<WG575> the man<WG444>. For<WG1063> oftentimes<WG4183><WG5550> it had caught<WG4884> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> he was kept<WG5442> bound<WG1196> with chains<WG254> and<WG2532> in fetters<WG3976>; and<WG2532> he brake<WG1284> the bands<WG1199>, and was driven<WG1643> of<WG5259> the devil<WG1142> into<WG1519> the wilderness<WG2048>.)


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, What<WG5101> is<WG2076> thy<WG4671> name<WG3686>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Legion<WG3003>: because<WG3754> many<WG4183> devils<WG1140> were entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they besought<WG3870><WG3870> him<WG846> that<WG3363> he would<WG2004> not<WG3363> command<WG2004> them<WG846> to go out<WG565> into<WG1519> the deep<WG12>.


btext:
And<WG1161> there was<WG2258> there<WG1563> an herd<WG34> of many<WG2425> swine<WG5519> feeding<WG1006> on<WG1722> the mountain<WG3735>: and<WG2532> they besought<WG3870> him<WG846> that<WG2443> he would suffer<WG2010> them<WG846> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> them<WG1565>. And<WG2532> he suffered<WG2010> them<WG846>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> went<WG1831> the devils<WG1140> out of<WG575> the man<WG444>, and entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> the swine<WG5519>: and<WG2532> the herd<WG34> ran<WG3729> violently down<WG2596> a steep<WG2911> place into<WG1519> the lake<WG3041>, and<WG2532> were choked<WG638>.


btext:
When<WG1161> they that fed<WG1006> them saw<WG1492> what was done<WG1096>, they fled<WG5343>, and<WG2532> went<WG565> and told<WG518> it in<WG1519> the city<WG4172> and<WG2532> in<WG1519> the country<WG68>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> they went out<WG1831> to see<WG1492> what was done<WG1096>; and<WG2532> came<WG2064> to<WG4314> Jesus<WG2424>, and<WG2532> found<WG2147> the man<WG444>, out of<WG575> whom<WG3739> the devils<WG1140> were departed<WG1831>, sitting<WG2521> at<WG3844> the feet<WG4228> of Jesus<WG2424>, clothed<WG2439>, and<WG2532> in his right mind<WG4993>: and<WG2532> they were afraid<WG5399>.


btext:
<WG1161> They also<WG2532> which saw<WG1492> it told<WG518> them<WG846> by what means<WG4459> he that was possessed of the devils<WG1139> was healed<WG4982>.


btext:
Then<WG2532> the whole<WG537> multitude<WG4128> of the country<WG4066> of the Gadarenes<WG1046> round about<WG4066> besought<WG2065> him<WG846> to depart<WG565> from<WG575> them<WG846>; for<WG3754> they were taken<WG4912> with great<WG3173> fear<WG5401>: and<WG1161> he<WG846> went up<WG1684> into<WG1519> the ship<WG4143>, and returned back again<WG5290>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> the man<WG435> out of<WG575> whom<WG3739> the devils<WG1140> were departed<WG1831> besought<WG1189> him<WG846> that he might be<WG1511> with<WG4862> him<WG846>: but<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> sent<WG630> him<WG846> away<WG630>, saying<WG3004>,


btext:
Return<WG5290> to<WG1519> thine own<WG4675> house<WG3624>, and<WG2532> shew<WG1334> how great things<WG3745> God<WG2316> hath done<WG4160> unto thee<WG4671>. And<WG2532> he went his way<WG565>, and published<WG2784> throughout<WG2596> the whole<WG3650> city<WG4172> how great things<WG3745> Jesus<WG2424> had done<WG4160> unto him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, that, when<WG1722> Jesus<WG2424> was returned<WG5290>, the people<WG3793> gladly received<WG588> him<WG846>: for<WG1063> they were<WG2258> all<WG3956> waiting for<WG4328> him<WG846>.

And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, there came<WG2064> a man<WG435> named<WG3739><WG3686> Jairus<WG2383>, and<WG2532> he<WG846> was<WG5225> a ruler<WG758> of the synagogue<WG4864>: and<WG2532> he fell down<WG4098> at<WG3844> Jesus'<WG2424> feet<WG4228>, and besought<WG3870> him<WG846> that he would come<WG1525> into<WG1519> his<WG846> house<WG3624>:


btext:
For<WG3754> he<WG846> had<WG2258> one only<WG3439> daughter<WG2364>, about<WG5613> twelve<WG1427> years of age<WG2094>, and<WG2532> she<WG3778><WG846> lay a dying<WG599>. But<WG1161> as<WG1722> he<WG846> went<WG5217> the people<WG3793> thronged<WG4846> him<WG846>.

And<WG2532> a woman<WG1135> having<WG5607><WG1722> an issue<WG4511> of blood<WG129> twelve<WG1427> years<WG575><WG2094>, which<WG3748> had spent<WG4321> all<WG3650> her living<WG979> upon<WG1519> physicians<WG2395>, neither<WG3756> could<WG2480> be healed<WG2323> of<WG5259> any<WG3762>,


btext:
Came<WG4334> behind<WG3693> him, and touched<WG680> the border<WG2899> of his<WG846> garment<WG2440>: and<WG2532> immediately<WG3916> her<WG846> issue<WG4511> of blood<WG129> stanched<WG2476>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036>, Who<WG5101> touched<WG680> me<WG3450>? When<WG1161> all<WG3956> denied<WG720>, Peter<WG4074> and<WG2532> they that were with<WG3326> him<WG846> said<WG2036>, Master<WG1988>, the multitude<WG3793> throng<WG4912> thee<WG4571> and<WG2532> press<WG598> thee, and<WG2532> sayest<WG3004> thou, Who<WG5101> touched<WG680> me<WG3450>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036>, Somebody<WG5100> hath touched<WG680> me<WG3450>: for<WG1063> I<WG1473> perceive<WG1097> that virtue<WG1411> is gone<WG1831> out of<WG575> me<WG1700>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when the woman<WG1135> saw<WG1492> that<WG3754> she was<WG2990> not<WG3756> hid<WG2990>, she came<WG2064> trembling<WG5141>, and<WG2532> falling down before<WG4363> him<WG846>, she declared<WG518> unto him<WG846> before<WG1799> all<WG3956> the people<WG2992> for<WG1223> what<WG3739> cause<WG156> she had touched<WG680> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> how<WG5613> she was healed<WG2390> immediately<WG3916>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, Daughter<WG2364>, be of good comfort<WG2293>: thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> hath made<WG4982> thee<WG4571> whole<WG4982>; go<WG4198> in<WG1519> peace<WG1515>.


btext:
While he<WG846> yet<WG2089> spake<WG2980>, there cometh<WG2064> one<WG5100> from<WG3844> the ruler of the synagogue's<WG752> house, saying<WG3004> to him<WG846><WG3754>, Thy<WG4675> daughter<WG2364> is dead<WG2348>; trouble<WG4660> not<WG3361> the Master<WG1320>.


btext:
But<WG1161> when Jesus<WG2424> heard<WG191> it, he answered<WG611> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Fear<WG5399> not<WG3361>: believe<WG4100> only<WG3440>, and<WG2532> she shall be made whole<WG4982>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he came<WG1525> into<WG1519> the house<WG3614>, he suffered<WG863> no<WG3756> man<WG3762> to go in<WG1525>, save<WG1508> Peter<WG4074>, and<WG2532> James<WG2385>, and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, and<WG2532> the father<WG3962> and<WG2532> the mother<WG3384> of the maiden<WG3816>.


btext:
And<WG1161> all<WG3956> wept<WG2799>, and<WG2532> bewailed<WG2875> her<WG846>: but<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Weep<WG2799> not<WG3361>; she is<WG599> not<WG3756> dead<WG599>, but<WG235> sleepeth<WG2518>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they laughed<WG2606> him<WG846> to scorn<WG2606>, knowing<WG1492> that<WG3754> she was dead<WG599>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he<WG846> put<WG1544> them all<WG3956> out<WG1854>, and<WG2532> took<WG2902> her<WG846> by the hand<WG5495>, and called<WG5455>, saying<WG3004>, Maid<WG3816>, arise<WG1453>.


btext:
And<WG2532> her<WG846> spirit<WG4151> came again<WG1994>, and<WG2532> she arose<WG450> straightway<WG3916>: and<WG2532> he commanded<WG1299> to give<WG1325> her<WG846> meat<WG5315>.


btext:
And<WG2532> her<WG846> parents<WG1118> were astonished<WG1839>: but<WG1161> he charged<WG3853> them<WG846> that they should tell<WG2036> no man<WG3367> what was done<WG1096>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> he called<WG4779> his<WG846> twelve<WG1427> disciples<WG3101> together<WG4779>, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> them<WG846> power<WG1411> and authority<WG1849> over<WG1909> all<WG3956> devils<WG1140>, and<WG2532> to cure<WG2323> diseases<WG3554>.

And<WG2532> he sent<WG649> them<WG846> to preach<WG2784> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>, and<WG2532> to heal<WG2390> the sick<WG770>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Take<WG142> nothing<WG3367> for<WG1519> your journey<WG3598>, neither<WG3383> staves<WG4464>, nor<WG3383> scrip<WG4082>, neither<WG3383> bread<WG740>, neither<WG3383> money<WG694>; neither<WG3383> have<WG2192> two<WG1417> coats<WG5509> apiece<WG303>.

And<WG2532> whosoever<WG3745><WG302> will<WG1209> not<WG3361> receive<WG1209> you<WG5209>, when ye go<WG1831> out of<WG575> that<WG1565> city<WG4172>, shake off<WG660> the very<WG2532> dust<WG2868> from<WG575> your<WG5216> feet<WG4228> for<WG1519> a testimony<WG3142> against<WG1909> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they departed<WG1831>, and went<WG1330> through<WG2596> the towns<WG2968>, preaching the gospel<WG2097>, and<WG2532> healing<WG2323> every where<WG3837>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> Herod<WG2264> the tetrarch<WG5076> heard<WG191> of all<WG3956> that was done<WG1096> by<WG5259> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> he was perplexed<WG1280>, because<WG1223> that it was said<WG3004> of<WG5259> some<WG5100>, that<WG3754> John<WG2491> was risen<WG1453> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>;

And<WG1161> of<WG5259> some<WG5100>, that<WG3754> Elias<WG2243> had appeared<WG5316>; and<WG1161> of others<WG243>, that<WG3754> one<WG1520> of the old<WG744> prophets<WG4396> was risen again<WG450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Herod<WG2264> said<WG2036>, John<WG2491> have<WG607> I<WG1473> beheaded<WG607>: but<WG1161> who<WG5101> is<WG2076> this<WG3778>, of<WG4012> whom<WG3739> I<WG1473> hear<WG191> such things<WG5108>? And<WG2532> he desired<WG2212> to see<WG1492> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the apostles<WG652>, when they were returned<WG5290>, told<WG1334> him<WG846> all that<WG3745> they had done<WG4160>. And<WG2532> he took<WG3880> them<WG846>, and went aside<WG5298> privately<WG2596><WG2398> into<WG1519> a desert<WG2048> place<WG5117> belonging to the city<WG4172> called<WG2564> Bethsaida<WG966>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the people<WG3793>, when they knew<WG1097> it, followed<WG190> him<WG846>: and<WG2532> he received<WG1209> them<WG846>, and spake<WG2980> unto them<WG846> of<WG4012> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>, and<WG2532> healed<WG2390> them that had<WG2192> need<WG5532> of healing<WG2322>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when the day<WG2250> began<WG756> to wear away<WG2827>, then<WG1161> came<WG4334> the twelve<WG1427>, and said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Send<WG630> the multitude<WG3793> away<WG630>, that<WG2443> they may go<WG565> into<WG1519> the towns<WG2968> and<WG2532> country<WG68> round about<WG2945>, and lodge<WG2647>, and<WG2532> get<WG2147> victuals<WG1979>: for<WG3754> we are<WG2070> here<WG5602> in<WG1722> a desert<WG2048> place<WG5117>.

But<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Give<WG1325> ye<WG5210> them<WG846> to eat<WG5315>. And<WG1161> they said<WG2036>, We<WG2254> have no<WG3756><WG1526> more<WG4119> but<WG2228> five<WG4002> loaves<WG740> and<WG2532> two<WG1417> fishes<WG2486>; except<WG1509> we<WG2249> should go<WG4198> and buy<WG59> meat<WG1033> for<WG1519> all<WG3956> this<WG5126> people<WG2992>.


btext:
For<WG1063> they were<WG2258> about<WG5616> five thousand<WG4000> men<WG435>. And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> to<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, Make<WG2625> them<WG846> sit down<WG2625> by<WG303> fifties<WG4004> in a company<WG2828>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> he took<WG2983> the five<WG4002> loaves<WG740> and<WG2532> the two<WG1417> fishes<WG2486>, and looking up<WG308> to<WG1519> heaven<WG3772>, he blessed<WG2127> them<WG846>, and<WG2532> brake<WG2622>, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> to the disciples<WG3101> to set before<WG3908> the multitude<WG3793>.

btext:
They<WG1161> answering<WG611> said<WG2036>, John<WG2491> the Baptist<WG910>; but<WG1161> some<WG243> say, Elias<WG2243>; and<WG1161> others<WG243> say, that<WG3754> one<WG5100> of the old<WG744> prophets<WG4396> is risen again<WG450>.

And<WG1161> he straitly charged<WG2008> them<WG846>, and commanded<WG3853> them to tell<WG2036> no man<WG3367> that thing<WG5124>;

Saying<WG2036><WG3754>, The Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> must<WG1163> suffer<WG3958> many things<WG4183>, and<WG2532> be rejected<WG593> of<WG575> the elders<WG4245> and<WG2532> chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122>, and<WG2532> be slain<WG615>, and<WG2532> be raised<WG1453> the third<WG5154> day<WG2250>.

And<WG1161> he said<WG3004> to<WG4314> them all<WG3956>, If any man<WG1536> will<WG2309> come<WG2064> after<WG3694> me<WG3450>, let him deny<WG533> himself<WG1438>, and<WG2532> take up<WG142> his<WG846> cross<WG4716> daily<WG2250><WG2596>, and<WG2532> follow<WG190> me<WG3427>.

And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036>, O<WG5599> faithless<WG571> and<WG2532> perverse<WG1294> generation<WG1074>, how<WG2193> long<WG4219> shall I be<WG2071> with<WG4314> you<WG5209>, and<WG2532> suffer<WG430> you<WG5216>? Bring<WG4317> thy<WG4675> son<WG5207> hither<WG5602>.


btext:
And<WG1161> as he<WG846> was<WG4334> yet<WG2089> a coming<WG4334>, the devil<WG1140> threw<WG4486> him<WG846> down<WG4486>, and<WG2532> tare<WG4952> him. And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> rebuked<WG2008> the unclean<WG169> spirit<WG4151>, and<WG2532> healed<WG2390> the child<WG3816>, and<WG2532> delivered<WG591> him<WG846> again<WG591> to his<WG846> father<WG3962>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they were<WG1605> all<WG3956> amazed<WG1605> at<WG1909> the mighty power<WG3168> of God<WG2316>. But<WG1161> while they wondered<WG2296> every one<WG3956> at<WG1909> all things<WG3956> which<WG3739> Jesus<WG2424> did<WG4160>, he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>,


btext:
Let these<WG5128> sayings<WG3056> sink down<WG5087> into<WG1519> your<WG5210><WG5216> ears<WG3775>: for<WG1063> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> shall be<WG3195> delivered<WG3860> into<WG1519> the hands<WG5495> of men<WG444>.


btext:
But<WG1161> they understood not<WG50> this<WG5124> saying<WG4487>, and<WG2532> it was<WG2258> hid<WG3871> from<WG575> them<WG846>, that<WG3363> they perceived<WG143> it<WG846> not<WG3363>: and<WG2532> they feared<WG5399> to ask<WG2065> him<WG846> of<WG4012> that<WG5127> saying<WG4487>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> there arose<WG1525> a reasoning<WG1261> among<WG1722> them<WG846>, which<WG5101><WG302> of them<WG846> should be<WG1498> greatest<WG3187>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424>, perceiving<WG1492> the thought<WG1261> of their<WG846> heart<WG2588>, took<WG1949> a child<WG3813>, and set<WG2476> him<WG846> by<WG3844> him<WG1438>,


btext:
And<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Whosoever<WG3739><WG1437> shall receive<WG1209> this<WG5124> child<WG3813> in<WG1909> my<WG3450> name<WG3686> receiveth<WG1209> me<WG1691>: and<WG2532> whosoever<WG3739><WG1437> shall receive<WG1209> me<WG1691> receiveth him<WG1209> that sent<WG649> me<WG3165>: for<WG1063> he that is<WG5225> least<WG3398> among<WG1722> you<WG5213> all<WG3956>, the same<WG3778> shall be<WG2071> great<WG3173>.


btext:
And<WG1161> John<WG2491> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036>, Master<WG1988>, we saw<WG1492> one<WG5100> casting out<WG1544> devils<WG1140> in<WG1909> thy<WG4675> name<WG3686>; and<WG2532> we forbad<WG2967> him<WG846>, because<WG3754> he followeth<WG190> not<WG3756> with<WG3326> us<WG2257>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Forbid<WG2967> him not<WG3361>: for<WG1063> he<WG3739> that is<WG2076> not<WG3756> against<WG2596> us<WG2257> is<WG2076> for<WG5228> us<WG2257>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, when<WG1722> the time<WG2250> was come<WG4845> that he<WG846> should be received up<WG354><WG2532>, he<WG846> stedfastly set<WG4741> his<WG846> face<WG4383> to go<WG4198> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2419>,


btext:
And<WG2532> sent<WG649> messengers<WG32> before<WG4253> his<WG846> face<WG4383>: and<WG2532> they went<WG4198>, and entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> a village<WG2968> of the Samaritans<WG4541>, to<WG5620> make ready<WG2090> for him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they did<WG1209> not<WG3756> receive<WG1209> him<WG846>, because<WG3754> his<WG846> face<WG4383> was<WG2258> as though he would go<WG4198> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2419>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> James<WG2385> and<WG2532> John<WG2491> saw<WG1492> this, they said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, wilt thou<WG2309> that we command<WG2036> fire<WG4442> to come down<WG2597> from<WG575> heaven<WG3772>, and<WG2532> consume<WG355> them<WG846>, even<WG2532> as<WG5613> Elias<WG2243> did<WG4160>?


btext:
But<WG1161> he turned<WG4762>, and rebuked<WG2008> them<WG846>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036>, Ye know<WG1492> not<WG3756> what manner<WG3634> of spirit<WG4151> ye<WG5210> are of<WG2075>.


btext:
For<WG1063> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> is<WG2064> not<WG3756> come<WG2064> to destroy<WG622> men's<WG444> lives<WG5590>, but<WG235> to save<WG4982> them. And<WG2532> they went<WG4198> to<WG1519> another<WG2087> village<WG2968>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, that, as they<WG846> went<WG4198> in<WG1722> the way<WG3598>, a certain<WG5100> man said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962>, I will follow<WG190> thee<WG4671> whithersoever<WG3699><WG302> thou goest<WG565>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Foxes<WG258> have<WG2192> holes<WG5454>, and<WG2532> birds<WG4071> of the air<WG3772> have nests<WG2682>; but<WG1161> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> hath<WG2192> not<WG3756> where<WG4226> to lay<WG2827> his head<WG2776>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> another<WG2087>, Follow<WG190> me<WG3427>. But<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, suffer<WG2010> me<WG3427> first<WG4412> to go<WG565> and bury<WG2290> my<WG3450> father<WG3962>.


btext:
<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Let<WG863> the dead<WG3498> bury<WG2290> their<WG1438> dead<WG3498>: but<WG1161> go<WG565> thou<WG4771> and preach<WG1229> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> another<WG2087> also<WG2532> said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, I will follow<WG190> thee<WG4671>; but<WG1161> let<WG2010> me<WG3427> first<WG4412> go bid them farewell<WG657>, which are at home at<WG1519> my<WG3450> house<WG3624>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, No man<WG3762>, having put<WG1911> his<WG846> hand<WG5495> to<WG1909> the plough<WG723>, and<WG2532> looking<WG991> back<WG1519><WG3694>, is<WG2076> fit<WG2111> for<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
<WG1161> After<WG3326> these things<WG5023> the Lord<WG2962> appointed<WG322> other<WG2087> seventy<WG1440> also<WG2532>, and<WG2532> sent<WG649> them<WG846> two<WG303> and two<WG1417> before<WG4253> his<WG846> face<WG4383> into<WG1519> every<WG3956> city<WG4172> and<WG2532> place<WG5117>, whither<WG3757><WG3739> he himself<WG846> would<WG3195> come<WG2064>.


btext:
Therefore<WG3767> said he<WG3004> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, The harvest<WG2326> truly<WG3303> is great<WG4183>, but<WG1161> the labourers<WG2040> are few<WG3641>: pray ye<WG1189> therefore<WG3767> the Lord<WG2962> of the harvest<WG2326>, that<WG3704> he would send forth<WG1544> labourers<WG2040> into<WG1519> his<WG846> harvest<WG2326>.


btext:
Go your ways<WG5217>: behold<WG2400>, I<WG1473> send<WG649> you<WG5209> forth<WG649> as<WG5613> lambs<WG704> among<WG1722><WG3319> wolves<WG3074>.


btext:
Carry<WG941> neither<WG3361> purse<WG905>, nor<WG3361> scrip<WG4082>, nor<WG3366> shoes<WG5266>: and<WG2532> salute<WG782> no man<WG3367> by<WG2596> the way<WG3598>.


btext:
And<WG1161> into<WG1519> whatsoever<WG3739><WG302> house<WG3614> ye enter<WG1525>, first<WG4412> say<WG3004>, Peace<WG1515> be to this<WG5129> house<WG3624>.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437><WG3303> the son<WG5207> of peace<WG1515> be<WG5600> there<WG1563>, your<WG5216> peace<WG1515> shall rest<WG1879> upon<WG1909> it<WG846>: if not<WG1490>, it shall turn<WG344> to<WG1909> you<WG5209> again<WG344>.


btext:
And<WG1161> in<WG1722> the same<WG846> house<WG3614> remain<WG3306>, eating<WG2068> and<WG2532> drinking<WG4095> such things as<WG3844> they<WG846> give<WG3844>: for<WG1063> the labourer<WG2040> is<WG2076> worthy<WG514> of his<WG846> hire<WG3408>. Go<WG3327> not<WG3361> from<WG1537> house<WG3614> to<WG1519> house<WG3614>.


btext:
And<WG2532> into<WG1519> whatsoever<WG1161><WG3739><WG302> city<WG4172> ye enter<WG1525>, and<WG2532> they receive<WG1209> you<WG5209>, eat such things<WG2068> as are set before<WG3908> you<WG5213>:


btext:
And<WG2532> heal<WG2323> the sick<WG772> that are therein<WG1722><WG846>, and<WG2532> say<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, The kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> is come nigh<WG1448> unto<WG1909> you<WG5209>.


btext:
But<WG1161> into<WG1519> whatsoever<WG3739><WG302> city<WG4172> ye enter<WG1525>, and<WG2532> they receive<WG1209> you<WG5209> not<WG3361>, go your ways out<WG1831> into<WG1519> the streets<WG4113> of the same<WG846>, and say<WG2036>,


btext:
Even<WG2532> the very dust<WG2868> of<WG1537> your<WG5216> city<WG4172>, which<WG3588> cleaveth<WG2853> on us<WG2254>, we do wipe off<WG631> against you<WG5213>: notwithstanding<WG4133> be ye sure<WG1097> of this<WG5124>, that<WG3754> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> is come nigh<WG1448> unto<WG1909> you<WG5209>.


btext:
But<WG1161> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, that<WG3754> it shall be<WG2071> more tolerable<WG414> in<WG1722> that<WG1565> day<WG2250> for Sodom<WG4670>, than<WG2228> for that<WG1565> city<WG4172>.


btext:
Woe<WG3759> unto thee<WG4671>, Chorazin<WG5523>! woe<WG3759> unto thee<WG4671>, Bethsaida<WG966>! for<WG3754> if<WG1487> the mighty works<WG1411> had been done<WG1096> in<WG1722> Tyre<WG5184> and<WG2532> Sidon<WG4605>, which<WG3588> have been done<WG1096> in<WG1722> you<WG5213>, they had<WG3340> a great while ago<WG3819> repented<WG3340>, sitting<WG2521> in<WG302><WG1722> sackcloth<WG4526> and<WG2532> ashes<WG4700>.


btext:
But<WG4133> it shall be<WG2071> more tolerable<WG414> for Tyre<WG5184> and<WG2532> Sidon<WG4605> at<WG1722> the judgment<WG2920>, than<WG2228> for you<WG5213>.


btext:
And<WG2532> thou<WG4771>, Capernaum<WG2584>, which<WG3588> art exalted<WG5312> to<WG2193> heaven<WG3772>, shalt be thrust down<WG2601> to<WG2193> hell<WG86>.


btext:
He that heareth<WG191> you<WG5216> heareth<WG191> me<WG1700>; and<WG2532> he that despiseth<WG114> you<WG5209> despiseth<WG114> me<WG1691>; and<WG1161> he that despiseth<WG114> me<WG1691> despiseth<WG114> him that sent<WG649> me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the seventy<WG1440> returned again<WG5290> with<WG3326> joy<WG5479>, saying<WG3004>, Lord<WG2962>, even<WG2532> the devils<WG1140> are subject<WG5293> unto us<WG2254> through<WG1722> thy<WG4675> name<WG3686>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, I beheld<WG2334> Satan<WG4567> as<WG5613> lightning<WG796> fall<WG4098> from<WG1537> heaven<WG3772>.


btext:
Behold<WG2400>, I give<WG1325> unto you<WG5213> power<WG1849> to tread<WG3961> on<WG1883> serpents<WG3789> and<WG2532> scorpions<WG4651>, and<WG2532> over<WG1909> all<WG3956> the power<WG1411> of the enemy<WG2190>: and<WG2532> nothing<WG3762> shall<WG91> by any means<WG3364> hurt<WG91><WG91> you<WG5209>.


btext:
Notwithstanding<WG4133> in<WG1722> this<WG5129> rejoice<WG5463> not<WG3361>, that<WG3754> the spirits<WG4151> are subject<WG5293> unto you<WG5213>; but<WG1161> rather<WG3123> rejoice<WG5463>, because<WG3754> your<WG5216> names<WG3686> are written<WG1125> in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>.


btext:
In<WG1722> that<WG846> hour<WG5610> Jesus<WG2424> rejoiced in<WG21> spirit<WG4151>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036>, I thank<WG1843> thee<WG4671>, O Father<WG3962>, Lord<WG2962> of heaven<WG3772> and<WG2532> earth<WG1093>, that<WG3754> thou hast hid<WG613> these things<WG5023> from<WG575> the wise<WG4680> and<WG2532> prudent<WG4908>, and<WG2532> hast revealed<WG601> them<WG846> unto babes<WG3516>: even so<WG3483>, Father<WG3962>; for<WG3754> so<WG3779> it seemed<WG1096> good<WG2107> in<WG1715> thy<WG4675> sight<WG1715>.


btext:
All things<WG3956> are delivered<WG3860> to me<WG3427> of<WG5259> my<WG3450> Father<WG3962>: and<WG2532> no man<WG3762> knoweth<WG1097> who<WG5101> the Son<WG5207> is<WG2076>, but<WG1508> the Father<WG3962>; and<WG2532> who<WG5101> the Father<WG3962> is<WG2076>, but<WG1508> the Son<WG5207>, and<WG2532> he to whom<WG3739><WG1437> the Son<WG5207> will<WG1014> reveal<WG601> him. / many ancient copies add these words at the beginning of verse, and turning to his Disciples, he said


btext:
And<WG2532> he turned him<WG4762> unto<WG4314> his disciples<WG3101>, and said<WG2036> privately<WG2398><WG2596>, Blessed<WG3107> are the eyes<WG3788> which<WG3588> see<WG991> the things that<WG3739> ye see<WG991>:


btext:
For<WG1063> I tell<WG3004> you<WG5213>, that<WG3754> many<WG4183> prophets<WG4396> and<WG2532> kings<WG935> have desired<WG2309> to see<WG1492> those things which<WG3739> ye<WG5210> see<WG991>, and<WG2532> have<WG1492> not<WG3756> seen<WG1492> them; and<WG2532> to hear<WG191> those things which<WG3739> ye hear<WG191>, and<WG2532> have<WG191> not<WG3756> heard<WG191> them.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, a certain<WG5100> lawyer<WG3544> stood up<WG450>, and<WG2532> tempted<WG1598> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1320>, what<WG5101> shall I do<WG4160> to inherit<WG2816> eternal<WG166> life<WG2222>?


btext:
<WG1161> He said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, What<WG5101> is written<WG1125> in<WG1722> the law<WG3551>? how<WG4459> readest thou<WG314>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he answering<WG611> said<WG2036>, Thou shalt love<WG25> the Lord<WG2962> thy<WG4675> God<WG2316> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> heart<WG2588>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> soul<WG5590>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> strength<WG2479>, and<WG2532> with<WG1537> all<WG3650> thy<WG4675> mind<WG1271>; and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> neighbour<WG4139> as<WG5613> thyself<WG4572>.

And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Thou hast answered<WG611> right<WG3723>: this<WG5124> do<WG4160>, and<WG2532> thou shalt live<WG2198>.


btext:
But<WG1161> he, willing<WG2309> to justify<WG1344> himself<WG1438>, said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> Jesus<WG2424>, And<WG2532> who<WG5101> is<WG2076> my<WG3450> neighbour<WG4139>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG5274> said<WG2036>, A certain<WG5100> man<WG444> went down<WG2597> from<WG575> Jerusalem<WG2419> to<WG1519> Jericho<WG2410>, and<WG2532> fell among<WG4045> thieves<WG3027>, which<WG3739><WG2532> stripped<WG1562> him<WG846> of his raiment<WG1562>, and<WG2532> wounded<WG4127><WG2007> him, and departed<WG565>, leaving<WG863> him half dead<WG2253><WG5177>.

But<WG1161> a certain<WG5100> Samaritan<WG4541>, as he journeyed<WG3593>, came<WG2064> where<WG2596> he was<WG846>: and<WG2532> when he saw<WG1492> him<WG846>, he had compassion<WG4697> on him,


btext:
And<WG2532> went<WG4334> to him, and bound up<WG2611> his<WG846> wounds<WG5134>, pouring in<WG2022> oil<WG1637> and<WG2532> wine<WG3631>, and<WG1161> set<WG1913> him<WG846> on<WG1909> his own<WG2398> beast<WG2934>, and brought<WG71> him<WG846> to<WG1519> an inn<WG3829>, and<WG2532> took care<WG1959> of him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> on<WG1909> the morrow<WG839> when he departed<WG1831>, he took out<WG1544> two<WG1417> pence<WG1220>, and gave<WG1325> them to the host<WG3830>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Take care<WG1959> of him<WG846>; and<WG2532> whatsoever<WG3748><WG302> thou spendest more<WG4325>, when I<WG3165> come again<WG1722><WG1880>, I<WG1473> will repay<WG591> thee<WG4671>.

Which<WG5101> now<WG3767> of these<WG5130> three<WG5140>, thinkest<WG1380> thou<WG4671>, was<WG1096> neighbour<WG4139> unto him that fell<WG1706> among<WG1519> the thieves<WG3027>?

And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, He that shewed<WG4160> mercy<WG1656> on<WG3326> him<WG846>. Then<WG3767> said<WG2036> Jesus<WG2424> unto him<WG846>, Go<WG4198>, and<WG2532> do<WG4160> thou<WG4771> likewise<WG3668>.

Now<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, as<WG1722> they<WG846> went<WG4198>, that<WG2532> he<WG846> entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> a certain<WG5100> village<WG2968>: and<WG1161> a certain<WG5100> woman<WG1135> named<WG3686> Martha<WG3136> received<WG5264> him<WG846> into<WG1519> her<WG846> house<WG3624>.


btext:
And<WG2532> she<WG3592> had<WG2258> a sister<WG79> called<WG2564> Mary<WG3137>, which<WG3739> also<WG2532> sat<WG3869> at<WG3844> Jesus'<WG2424> feet<WG4228>, and heard<WG191> his<WG846> word<WG3056>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Martha<WG3136> was cumbered<WG4049> about<WG4012> much<WG4183> serving<WG1248>, and<WG1161> came to him<WG2186>, and said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, dost<WG3199> thou<WG4671> not<WG3756> care<WG3199> that<WG3754> my<WG3450> sister<WG79> hath left<WG2641> me<WG3165> to serve<WG1247> alone<WG3441>? bid<WG2036> her<WG846> therefore<WG3767> that<WG2443> she help<WG4878> me<WG3427>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, Martha<WG3136>, Martha<WG3136>, thou art careful<WG3309> and<WG2532> troubled<WG5182> about<WG4012> many things<WG4183>:

And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, that, as<WG1722> he<WG846> was<WG1511> praying<WG4336> in<WG1722> a certain<WG5100> place<WG5117>, when<WG5613> he ceased<WG3973>, one<WG5100> of his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962>, teach<WG1321> us<WG2248> to pray<WG4336>, as<WG2531> John<WG2491> also<WG2532> taught<WG1321> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, When<WG3752> ye pray<WG4336>, say<WG3004>, Our<WG2257> Father<WG3962> which<WG3588> art in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>, Hallowed be<WG37> thy<WG4675> name<WG3686>.

And<WG2532> lead<WG1533> us<WG2248> not<WG3361> into<WG1519> temptation<WG3986>; but<WG235> deliver<WG4506> us<WG2248> from<WG575> evil<WG4190>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Which<WG5101> of<WG1537> you<WG5216> shall have<WG2192> a friend<WG5384>, and<WG2532> shall go<WG4198> unto<WG4314> him<WG846> at midnight<WG3317>, and<WG2532> say<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Friend<WG5384>, lend<WG5531> me<WG3427> three<WG5140> loaves<WG740>;

And he<WG2548> from within<WG2081> shall answer<WG611> and say<WG2036>, Trouble<WG2873><WG3930> me<WG3427> not<WG3361>: the door<WG2374> is<WG2808> now<WG2235> shut<WG2808>, and<WG2532> my<WG3450> children<WG3813> are<WG1526> with<WG3326> me<WG1700> in<WG1519> bed<WG2845>; I cannot<WG3756><WG1410> rise<WG450> and give<WG1325> thee<WG4671>.

btext:
Or<WG2228><WG2532> if<WG1437> he shall ask<WG154> an egg<WG5609>, will he offer<WG3361><WG1929> him<WG846> a scorpion<WG4651>? / offer: Gr. give

btext:
But<WG1161> he<WG846>, knowing<WG1492> their<WG846> thoughts<WG1270>, said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Every<WG3956> kingdom<WG932> divided<WG1266> against<WG1909> itself<WG1438> is brought to desolation<WG2049>; and<WG2532> a house<WG3624> divided against<WG1909> a house<WG3624> falleth<WG4098>.

Then<WG1161> answered<WG611> one<WG5100> of the lawyers<WG3544>, and said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Master<WG1320>, thus<WG5023> saying<WG3004> thou reproachest<WG5195> us<WG2248> also<WG2532>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213> also<WG2532>, ye lawyers<WG3544>! for<WG3754> ye lade<WG5412> men<WG444> with burdens<WG5413> grievous to be borne<WG1419>, and<WG2532> ye yourselves<WG846> touch<WG4379> not<WG3756> the burdens<WG5413> with one<WG1520> of your<WG5216> fingers<WG1147>.


btext:
Woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213>! for<WG3754> ye build<WG3618> the sepulchres<WG3419> of the prophets<WG4396>, and<WG1161> your<WG5216> fathers<WG3962> killed<WG615> them<WG846>.


btext:
Truly<WG686> ye bear witness<WG3140> that<WG2532> ye allow<WG4909> the deeds<WG2041> of your<WG5216> fathers<WG3962>: for<WG3754> they<WG846> indeed<WG3303> killed<WG615> them<WG846>, and<WG1161> ye<WG5210> build<WG3618> their<WG846> sepulchres<WG3419>.


btext:
Therefore<WG1223><WG5124> also<WG2532> said<WG2036> the wisdom<WG4678> of God<WG2316>, I will send<WG649><WG1519> them<WG846> prophets<WG4396> and<WG2532> apostles<WG652>, and<WG2532> some of<WG1537> them<WG846> they shall slay<WG615> and<WG2532> persecute<WG1559>:


btext:
That<WG2443> the blood<WG129> of all<WG3956> the prophets<WG4396>, which<WG3588> was shed<WG1632> from<WG575> the foundation<WG2602> of the world<WG2889>, may be required<WG1567> of<WG575> this<WG5026> generation<WG1074>;


btext:
From<WG575> the blood<WG129> of Abel<WG6> unto<WG2193> the blood<WG129> of Zacharias<WG2197>, which<WG3588> perished<WG622> between<WG3342> the altar<WG2379> and<WG2532> the temple<WG3624>: verily<WG3483> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, It shall be required<WG1567> of<WG575> this<WG5026> generation<WG1074>.


btext:
Woe<WG3759> unto you<WG5213>, lawyers<WG3544>! for<WG3754> ye have taken away<WG142> the key<WG2807> of knowledge<WG1108>: ye entered<WG1525> not<WG3756> in<WG1525> yourselves<WG846>, and<WG2532> them that were entering in<WG1525> ye hindered<WG2967>. / hindered: or, forbad


btext:
And<WG1161> as he<WG846> said<WG3004> these things<WG5023> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, the scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> the Pharisees<WG5330> began<WG756> to urge<WG1758> him vehemently<WG1171>, and<WG2532> to provoke<WG653> him<WG846> to speak<WG653> of<WG4012> many things<WG4119>:


btext:
Laying wait for<WG1748> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> seeking<WG2212> to catch<WG2340> something<WG5100> out of<WG1537> his<WG846> mouth<WG4750>, that<WG2443> they might accuse<WG2723> him<WG846>.


btext:
In<WG1722> the mean time<WG3739>, when there were gathered together<WG1996> an innumerable multitude<WG3461> of people<WG3793>, insomuch that<WG5620> they trode<WG2662> one upon another<WG240>, he began<WG756> to say<WG3004> unto<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> first of all<WG4412>, Beware<WG4337> ye<WG1438> of<WG575> the leaven<WG2219> of the Pharisees<WG5330>, which<WG3748> is<WG2076> hypocrisy<WG5272>.


btext:
For<WG1161> there is<WG2076> nothing<WG3762> covered<WG4780>, that<WG3739> shall<WG601> not<WG3756> be revealed<WG601>; neither<WG2532> hid<WG2927>, that<WG3739> shall<WG1097> not<WG3756> be known<WG1097>.


btext:
Therefore<WG473><WG3739> whatsoever<WG3745> ye have spoken<WG2036> in<WG1722> darkness<WG4653> shall be heard<WG191> in<WG1722> the light<WG5457>; and<WG2532> that which<WG3739> ye have spoken<WG2980> in<WG4314> the ear<WG3775> in<WG1722> closets<WG5009> shall be proclaimed<WG2784> upon<WG1909> the housetops<WG1430>.


btext:
And<WG1161> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213> my<WG3450> friends<WG5384>, Be<WG5399> not<WG3361> afraid<WG5399> of them<WG575> that kill<WG615> the body<WG4983>, and<WG2532> after<WG3326> that<WG5023> have<WG2192> no<WG3361><WG5100> more<WG4055> that they can do<WG4160>.


btext:
But<WG1161> I will forewarn<WG5263> you<WG5213> whom<WG5101> ye shall fear<WG5399>: Fear<WG5399> him, which after<WG3326> he hath killed<WG615> hath<WG2192> power<WG1849> to cast<WG1685> into<WG1519> hell<WG1067>; yea<WG3483>, I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Fear<WG5399> him<WG5126>.

Are<WG4453> not<WG3780> five<WG4002> sparrows<WG4765> sold<WG4453> for two<WG1417> farthings<WG787>, and<WG2532> not<WG3756> one<WG1520> of<WG1537> them<WG846> is<WG2076> forgotten<WG1950> before<WG1799> God<WG2316>?


btext:
But<WG235> even the very<WG2532> hairs<WG2359> of your<WG5216> head<WG2776> are<WG705> all<WG3956> numbered<WG705>. Fear<WG5399> not<WG3361> therefore<WG3767>: ye are of more value<WG1308> than many<WG4183> sparrows<WG4765>.


btext:
Also<WG1161> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Whosoever<WG3956><WG3739><WG302> shall confess<WG3670><WG1722> me<WG1698> before<WG1715> men<WG444><WG1722>, him<WG846> shall<WG3670> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> also<WG2532> confess<WG3670> before<WG1715> the angels<WG32> of God<WG2316>:


btext:
But<WG1161> he that denieth<WG720> me<WG3165> before<WG1799> men<WG444> shall be denied<WG533> before<WG1799> the angels<WG32> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> whosoever<WG3956><WG3739> shall speak<WG2046> a word<WG3056> against<WG1519> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444>, it shall be forgiven<WG863> him<WG846>: but<WG1161> unto him that blasphemeth<WG987> against<WG1519> the Holy<WG40> Ghost<WG4151> it shall<WG863> not<WG3756> be forgiven<WG863>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when<WG3752> they bring<WG4374> you<WG5209> unto<WG1909> the synagogues<WG4864>, and<WG2532> unto magistrates<WG746>, and<WG2532> powers<WG1849>, take<WG3309> ye no<WG3361> thought<WG3309> how<WG4459> or<WG2228> what thing<WG5101> ye shall answer<WG626>, or<WG2228> what<WG5101> ye shall say<WG2036>:


btext:
For<WG1063> the Holy<WG40> Ghost<WG4151> shall teach<WG1321> you<WG5209> in<WG1722> the same<WG846> hour<WG5610> what<WG3739> ye ought<WG1163> to say<WG2036>.


btext:
And<WG1161> one<WG5100> of<WG1537> the company<WG3793> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Master<WG1320>, speak<WG2036> to my<WG3450> brother<WG80>, that he divide<WG3307> the inheritance<WG2817> with<WG3326> me<WG1700>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Man<WG444>, who<WG5101> made<WG2525> me<WG3165> a judge<WG1348> or<WG2228> a divider<WG3312> over<WG1909> you<WG5209>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Take heed<WG3708>, and<WG2532> beware<WG5442> of<WG575> covetousness<WG4124>: for<WG3754> a man's<WG5100><WG846> life<WG2222> consisteth<WG2076> not<WG3756> in<WG1722> the abundance<WG4052> of<WG1537> the things which he<WG846> possesseth<WG5224>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he spake<WG2036> a parable<WG3850> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, The ground<WG5561> of a certain<WG5100> rich<WG4145> man<WG444> brought forth plentifully<WG2164>:


btext:
And<WG2532> he thought<WG1260> within<WG1722> himself<WG1438>, saying<WG3004>, What<WG5101> shall I do<WG4160>, because<WG3754> I have<WG2192> no<WG3756> room where<WG4226> to bestow<WG4863> my<WG3450> fruits<WG2590>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036>, This<WG5124> will I do<WG4160>: I will pull down<WG2507> my<WG3450> barns<WG596>, and<WG2532> build<WG3618> greater<WG3187>; and<WG2532> there<WG1563> will I bestow<WG4863> all<WG3956> my<WG3450> fruits<WG1081> and<WG2532> my<WG3450> goods<WG18>.


btext:
And<WG2532> I will say<WG2046> to my<WG3450> soul<WG5590>, Soul<WG5590>, thou hast<WG2192> much<WG4183> goods<WG18> laid up<WG2749> for<WG1519> many<WG4183> years<WG2094>; take thine ease<WG373>, eat<WG5315>, drink<WG4095>, and be merry<WG2165>.


btext:
But<WG1161> God<WG2316> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Thou fool<WG878>, this<WG5026> night<WG3571> thy<WG4675> soul<WG5590> shall be required<WG523> of<WG575> thee<WG4675>: then<WG1161> whose<WG5101> shall those things be<WG2071>, which<WG3739> thou hast provided<WG2090>? / thy…: Gr. do they require thy soul

So<WG3779> is he that layeth up treasure<WG2343> for himself<WG1438>, and<WG2532> is<WG4147> not<WG3361> rich<WG4147> toward<WG1519> God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, Therefore<WG1223><WG5124> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Take<WG3309> no<WG3361> thought<WG3309> for your<WG5216> life<WG5590>, what<WG5101> ye shall eat<WG5315>; neither<WG3366> for the body<WG4983>, what<WG5101> ye shall put on<WG1746>.


btext:
The life<WG5590> is<WG2076> more<WG4119> than meat<WG5160>, and<WG2532> the body<WG4983> is more than raiment<WG1742>.

Consider<WG2657> the ravens<WG2876>: for<WG3754> they neither<WG3756> sow<WG4687> nor<WG3761> reap<WG2325>; which<WG3739> neither<WG3756> have<WG2076> storehouse<WG5009> nor<WG3761> barn<WG596>; and<WG2532> God<WG2316> feedeth<WG5142> them<WG846>: how much<WG4214> more<WG3123> are<WG1308> ye<WG5210> better than<WG1308> the fowls<WG4071>?

And<WG1161> which<WG5101> of<WG1537> you<WG5216> with taking thought<WG3309> can<WG1410> add<WG4369> to<WG1909> his<WG846> stature<WG2244> one<WG1520> cubit<WG4083>?


btext:
If<WG1487> ye then<WG3767> be<WG1410> not<WG3777> able to do<WG1410> that thing which is least<WG1646>, why<WG5101> take ye thought<WG3309> for<WG4012> the rest<WG3062>?

Consider<WG2657> the lilies<WG2918> how<WG4459> they grow<WG837>: they toil<WG2872> not<WG3756>, they spin<WG3514> not<WG3761>; and yet<WG1161> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, that Solomon<WG4672> in<WG1722> all<WG3956> his<WG846> glory<WG1391> was<WG4016> not<WG3761> arrayed<WG4016> like<WG5613> one<WG1520> of these<WG5130>.

For<WG1063> all<WG3956> these things<WG5023> do<WG1934> the nations<WG1484> of the world<WG2889> seek after<WG1934>: and<WG1161> your<WG5216> Father<WG3962> knoweth<WG1492> that<WG3754> ye have need<WG5535> of these things<WG5130>.

Sell<WG4453> that ye<WG5216> have<WG5224>, and<WG2532> give<WG1325> alms<WG1654>; provide<WG4160> yourselves<WG1438> bags<WG905> which wax<WG3822> not<WG3361> old<WG3822>, a treasure<WG2344> in<WG1722> the heavens<WG3772> that faileth not<WG413>, where<WG3699> no<WG3756> thief<WG2812> approacheth<WG1448>, neither<WG3761> moth<WG4597> corrupteth<WG1311>.

Blessed<WG3107> are those<WG1565> servants<WG1401>, whom<WG3739> the lord<WG2962> when he cometh<WG2064> shall find<WG2147> watching<WG1127>: verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, that<WG3754> he shall gird himself<WG4024>, and<WG2532> make<WG347> them<WG846> to sit down to meat<WG347>, and<WG2532> will come forth<WG3928> and serve<WG1247> them<WG846>.

Yea<WG1161>, and why<WG5101> even<WG2532> of<WG575> yourselves<WG1438> judge ye<WG2919> not<WG3756> what is right<WG1342>?

btext:
He spake<WG3004> also<WG1161> this<WG5026> parable<WG3850>; A certain<WG5100> man had<WG2192> a fig tree<WG4808> planted<WG5452> in<WG1722> his<WG846> vineyard<WG290>; and<WG2532> he came<WG2064> and sought<WG2212> fruit<WG2590> thereon<WG1722><WG846>, and<WG2532> found<WG2147> none<WG3756>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said he<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the dresser of his vineyard<WG289>, Behold<WG2400>, these three<WG5140> years<WG2094> I come<WG2064> seeking<WG2212> fruit<WG2590> on<WG1722> this<WG5026> fig tree<WG4808>, and<WG2532> find<WG2147> none<WG3756>: cut<WG1581> it<WG846> down<WG1581>; why<WG2444><WG2532> cumbereth<WG2673> it<WG846> the ground<WG1093>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he answering<WG611> said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962>, let<WG863> it<WG846> alone<WG863> this<WG5124> year<WG2094> also<WG2532>, till<WG2193><WG3755> I shall dig<WG4626> about<WG4012> it<WG846>, and<WG2532> dung<WG906><WG2874> it:

And if<WG2579><WG3303> it bear<WG4160> fruit<WG2590>, well: and if not<WG1490>, then after that<WG1519><WG3195> thou shalt cut<WG1581> it<WG846> down<WG1581>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he was<WG2258> teaching<WG1321> in<WG1722> one<WG3391> of the synagogues<WG4864> on<WG1722> the sabbath<WG4521>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, there was<WG2258> a woman<WG1135> which had<WG2192> a spirit<WG4151> of infirmity<WG769> eighteen<WG1176><WG2532><WG3638> years<WG2094>, and<WG2532> was<WG2258> bowed together<WG4794>, and<WG2532> could<WG1410> in<WG1519> no<WG3361> wise<WG3838> lift up<WG352> herself.


btext:
And<WG1161> when Jesus<WG2424> saw<WG1492> her<WG846>, he called<WG4377> her to him, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto her<WG846>, Woman<WG1135>, thou art loosed<WG630> from thine<WG4675> infirmity<WG769>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he laid<WG2007> his hands<WG5495> on<WG2007> her<WG846>: and<WG2532> immediately<WG3916> she was made straight<WG461>, and<WG2532> glorified<WG1392> God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the ruler of the synagogue<WG752> answered<WG611> with indignation<WG23>, because<WG3754> that Jesus<WG2424> had healed<WG2323> on the sabbath<WG4521> day, and said<WG3004> unto the people<WG3793>, There are<WG1526> six<WG1803> days<WG2250> in<WG1722> which<WG3739> men ought<WG1163> to work<WG2038>: in<WG1722> them<WG5025> therefore<WG3767> come<WG2064> and be healed<WG2323>, and<WG2532> not<WG3361> on the sabbath<WG4521> day<WG2250>.


btext:
The Lord<WG2962> then<WG3767> answered<WG611> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036>, Thou hypocrite<WG5273>, doth<WG3089> not<WG3756> each one<WG1538> of you<WG5216> on the sabbath<WG4521> loose<WG3089> his<WG846> ox<WG1016> or<WG2228> his ass<WG3688> from<WG575> the stall<WG5336>, and<WG2532> lead him away<WG520> to watering<WG4222>?


btext:
And<WG1161> ought<WG1163> not<WG3756> this woman<WG5026>, being<WG5607> a daughter<WG2364> of Abraham<WG11>, whom<WG3739> Satan<WG4567> hath bound<WG1210>, lo<WG2400>, these eighteen<WG1176><WG2532><WG3638> years<WG2094>, be loosed<WG3089> from<WG575> this<WG5127> bond<WG1199> on the sabbath<WG4521> day<WG2250>?


btext:
And<WG2532> when he<WG846> had said<WG3004> these things<WG5023>, all<WG3956> his<WG846> adversaries<WG480> were ashamed<WG2617>: and<WG2532> all<WG3956> the people<WG3793> rejoiced<WG5463> for<WG1909> all<WG3956> the glorious things<WG1741> that were done<WG1096> by<WG5259> him<WG846>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said he<WG3004>, Unto what<WG5101> is<WG2076> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> like<WG3664>? and<WG2532> whereunto<WG5101> shall I resemble<WG3666> it<WG846>?


btext:
It is<WG2076> like<WG3664> a grain<WG2848> of mustard seed<WG4615>, which<WG3739> a man<WG444> took<WG2983>, and cast<WG906> into<WG1519> his<WG1438> garden<WG2779>; and<WG2532> it grew<WG837>, and<WG2532> waxed<WG1096><WG1519> a great<WG3173> tree<WG1186>; and<WG2532> the fowls<WG4071> of the air<WG3772> lodged<WG2681> in<WG1722> the branches<WG2798> of it<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> again<WG3825> he said<WG2036>, Whereunto<WG5101> shall I liken<WG3666> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>?


btext:
It is<WG2076> like<WG3664> leaven<WG2219>, which<WG3739> a woman<WG1135> took<WG2983> and hid<WG1470> in<WG1519> three<WG5140> measures<WG4568> of meal<WG224>, till<WG2193><WG3739> the whole<WG3650> was leavened<WG2220>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went<WG1279> through<WG2596> the cities<WG4172> and<WG2532> villages<WG2968>, teaching<WG1321>, and<WG2532> journeying<WG4160><WG4197> toward<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2419>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said<WG2036> one<WG5100> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962>, are there few<WG1487><WG3641> that be saved<WG4982>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>,


btext:
Strive<WG75> to enter in<WG1525> at<WG1223> the strait<WG4728> gate<WG4439>: for<WG3754> many<WG4183>, I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, will seek<WG2212> to enter in<WG1525>, and<WG2532> shall<WG2480> not<WG3756> be able<WG2480>.


btext:
When once<WG575><WG3739><WG302> the master of the house<WG3617> is risen up<WG1453>, and<WG2532> hath shut<WG608> to the door<WG2374>, and<WG2532> ye begin<WG756> to stand<WG2476> without<WG1854>, and<WG2532> to knock<WG2925> at the door<WG2374>, saying<WG3004>, Lord<WG2962>, Lord<WG2962>, open<WG455> unto us<WG2254>; and<WG2532> he shall answer<WG611> and say<WG2046> unto you<WG5213>, I know<WG1492> you<WG5209> not<WG3756> whence<WG4159> ye are<WG2075>:


btext:
Then<WG5119> shall ye begin<WG756> to say<WG3004>, We have eaten<WG5315> and<WG2532> drunk<WG4095> in thy<WG4675> presence<WG1799>, and<WG2532> thou hast taught<WG1321> in<WG1722> our<WG2257> streets<WG4113>.


btext:
But<WG2532> he shall say<WG2046>, I tell<WG3004> you<WG5213>, I know<WG1492> you<WG5209> not<WG3756> whence<WG4159> ye are<WG2075>; depart<WG868> from<WG575> me<WG1700>, all<WG3956> ye workers<WG2040> of iniquity<WG93>.


btext:
There<WG1563> shall be<WG2071> weeping<WG2805> and<WG2532> gnashing<WG1030> of teeth<WG3599>, when<WG3752> ye shall see<WG3700> Abraham<WG11>, and<WG2532> Isaac<WG2464>, and<WG2532> Jacob<WG2384>, and<WG2532> all<WG3956> the prophets<WG4396>, in<WG1722> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>, and<WG1161> you<WG5209> yourselves thrust<WG1544> out<WG1854>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they shall come<WG2240> from<WG575> the east<WG395>, and<WG2532> from the west<WG1424>, and<WG2532> from<WG575> the north<WG1005>, and<WG2532> from the south<WG3558>, and<WG2532> shall sit down<WG347> in<WG1722> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, there are<WG1526> last<WG2078> which<WG3739> shall be<WG2071> first<WG4413>, and<WG2532> there are<WG1526> first<WG4413> which<WG3739> shall be<WG2071> last<WG2078>.


btext:
The same<WG1722><WG846> day<WG2250> there came<WG4334> certain<WG5100> of the Pharisees<WG5330>, saying<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Get thee out<WG1831>, and<WG2532> depart<WG4198> hence<WG1782>: for<WG3754> Herod<WG2264> will<WG2309> kill<WG615> thee<WG4571>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Go ye<WG4198>, and tell<WG2036> that<WG5026> fox<WG258>, Behold<WG2400>, I cast out<WG1544> devils<WG1140>, and<WG2532> I do<WG2005> cures<WG2392> to day<WG4594> and<WG2532> to morrow<WG839>, and<WG2532> the third<WG5154> day I shall be perfected<WG5048>.


btext:
Nevertheless<WG4133> I<WG3165> must<WG1163> walk<WG4198> to day<WG4594>, and<WG2532> to morrow<WG839>, and<WG2532> the day following<WG2192>: for<WG3754> it cannot be<WG3756><WG1735> that a prophet<WG4396> perish<WG622> out of<WG1854> Jerusalem<WG2419>.


btext:
O Jerusalem<WG2419>, Jerusalem<WG2419>, which<WG3588> killest<WG615> the prophets<WG4396>, and<WG2532> stonest<WG3036> them that are sent<WG649> unto<WG4314> thee<WG846>; how often<WG4212> would<WG2309> I have gathered<WG1996> thy<WG4675> children<WG5043> together<WG1996>, as<WG3739><WG5158> a hen<WG3733> doth gather her<WG1438> brood<WG3555> under<WG5259> her wings<WG4420>, and<WG2532> ye would<WG2309> not<WG3756>!

Behold<WG2400>, your<WG5216> house<WG3624> is left<WG863> unto you<WG5213> desolate<WG2048>: and<WG1161> verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, Ye shall<WG1492> not<WG3364> see<WG1492> me<WG3165>, until<WG2193><WG302> the time come<WG2240> when<WG3753> ye shall say<WG2036>, Blessed<WG2127> is he that cometh<WG2064> in<WG1722> the name<WG3686> of the Lord<WG2962>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, as<WG1722> he<WG846> went<WG2064> into<WG1519> the house<WG3624> of one<WG5100> of the chief<WG758> Pharisees<WG5330> to eat<WG5315> bread<WG740> on the sabbath<WG4521> day, that<WG2532> they<WG846> watched<WG2258><WG3906> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, there was<WG2258> a certain<WG5100> man<WG444> before<WG1715> him<WG846> which had the dropsy<WG5203>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> spake<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the lawyers<WG3544> and<WG2532> Pharisees<WG5330>, saying<WG3004>, Is it<WG1487> lawful<WG1832> to heal<WG2323> on the sabbath day<WG4521>?


btext:
And<WG1161> they held their peace<WG2270>. And<WG2532> he took<WG1949> him, and healed<WG2390> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> let him go<WG630>;


btext:
And<WG2532> answered<WG611> them<WG4314><WG846>, saying<WG2036>, Which<WG5101> of you<WG5216> shall have an ass<WG3688> or<WG2228> an ox<WG1016> fallen<WG1706> into<WG1519> a pit<WG5421>, and<WG2532> will<WG385> not<WG3756> straightway<WG2112> pull<WG385> him<WG846> out<WG385> on<WG1722> the sabbath<WG4521> day<WG2250>?


btext:
And<WG2532> they could<WG2480> not<WG3756> answer<WG470> him<WG846> again<WG470> to<WG4314> these things<WG5023>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he put forth<WG3004> a parable<WG3850> to<WG4314> those which were bidden<WG2564>, when he marked<WG1907> how<WG4459> they chose out<WG1586> the chief rooms<WG4411>; saying<WG3004> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>,

When<WG3752> thou art bidden<WG2564> of<WG5259> any<WG5100> man to<WG1519> a wedding<WG1062>, sit<WG2625> not<WG3361> down<WG2625> in<WG1519> the highest room<WG4411>; lest<WG3379> a more honourable man<WG1784> than thou<WG4675> be<WG5600> bidden<WG2564> of<WG5259> him<WG846>;


btext:
And<WG2532> he that bade<WG2564> thee<WG4571> and<WG2532> him<WG846> come<WG2064> and say<WG2046> to thee<WG4671>, Give<WG1325> this man<WG5129> place<WG5117>; and<WG2532><WG5119> thou begin<WG756> with<WG3326> shame<WG152> to take<WG2722> the lowest<WG2078> room<WG5117>.

But<WG235> when<WG3752> thou art bidden<WG2564>, go<WG4198> and sit down<WG377> in<WG1519> the lowest<WG2078> room<WG5117>; that<WG2443> when<WG3752> he that bade<WG2564> thee<WG4571> cometh<WG2064>, he may say<WG2036> unto thee<WG4671>, Friend<WG5384>, go up<WG4320> higher<WG511>: then<WG5119> shalt thou<WG4671> have<WG2071> worship<WG1391> in the presence<WG1799> of them that sit at meat<WG4873> with thee<WG4671>.


btext:
For<WG3754> whosoever<WG3956> exalteth<WG5312> himself<WG1438> shall be abased<WG5013>; and<WG2532> he that humbleth<WG5013> himself<WG1438> shall be exalted<WG5312>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said he<WG3004> also<WG2532> to him that bade<WG2564> him<WG846>, When<WG3752> thou makest<WG4160> a dinner<WG712> or<WG2228> a supper<WG1173>, call<WG5455> not<WG3361> thy<WG4675> friends<WG5384>, nor<WG3366> thy<WG4675> brethren<WG80>, neither<WG3366> thy<WG4675> kinsmen<WG4773>, nor<WG3366> thy rich<WG4145> neighbours<WG1069>; lest<WG3379> they<WG846> also<WG2532> bid<WG479> thee<WG4571> again<WG479>, and<WG2532> a recompence<WG468> be made<WG1096> thee<WG4671>.


btext:
But<WG235> when<WG3752> thou makest<WG4160> a feast<WG1403>, call<WG2564> the poor<WG4434>, the maimed<WG376>, the lame<WG5560>, the blind<WG5185>:


btext:
And<WG2532> thou shalt be<WG2071> blessed<WG3107>; for<WG3754> they cannot<WG3756><WG2192> recompense<WG467> thee<WG4671>: for<WG1063> thou<WG4671> shalt be recompensed<WG467> at<WG1722> the resurrection<WG386> of the just<WG1342>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when one<WG5100> of them that sat at meat with him<WG4873> heard<WG191> these things<WG5023>, he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Blessed<WG3107> is he<WG3739> that shall eat<WG5315> bread<WG740> in<WG1722> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said he<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, A certain<WG5100> man<WG444> made<WG4160> a great<WG3173> supper<WG1173>, and<WG2532> bade<WG2564> many<WG4183>:


btext:
And<WG2532> sent<WG649> his<WG846> servant<WG1401> at supper<WG1173> time<WG5610> to say<WG2036> to them that were bidden<WG2564>, Come<WG2064>; for<WG3754> all things<WG3956> are<WG2076> now<WG2235> ready<WG2092>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they all<WG3956> with<WG575> one<WG3391> consent began<WG756> to make excuse<WG3868>. The first<WG4413> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, I have bought<WG59> a piece of ground<WG68>, and<WG2532> I must<WG2192> needs<WG318> go<WG1831> and<WG2532> see<WG1492> it<WG846>: I pray<WG2065> thee<WG4571> have<WG2192> me<WG3165> excused<WG3868>.


btext:
And<WG2532> another<WG2087> said<WG2036>, I have bought<WG59> five<WG4002> yoke<WG2201> of oxen<WG1016>, and<WG2532> I go<WG4198> to prove<WG1381> them<WG846>: I pray<WG2065> thee<WG4571> have<WG2192> me<WG3165> excused<WG3868>.


btext:
And<WG2532> another<WG2087> said<WG2036>, I have married<WG1060> a wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> therefore<WG1223><WG5124> I cannot<WG3756><WG1410> come<WG2064>.


btext:
So<WG2532> that<WG1565> servant<WG1401> came<WG3854>, and shewed<WG518> his<WG846> lord<WG2962> these things<WG5023>. Then<WG5119> the master of the house<WG3617> being angry<WG3710> said<WG2036> to his<WG846> servant<WG1401>, Go out<WG1831> quickly<WG5030> into<WG1519> the streets<WG4113> and<WG2532> lanes<WG4505> of the city<WG4172>, and<WG2532> bring in<WG1521> hither<WG5602> the poor<WG4434>, and<WG2532> the maimed<WG376>, and<WG2532> the halt<WG5560>, and<WG2532> the blind<WG5185>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the servant<WG1401> said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, it is done<WG1096> as<WG5613> thou hast commanded<WG2004>, and<WG2532> yet<WG2089> there is<WG2076> room<WG5117>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the lord<WG2962> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the servant<WG1401>, Go out<WG1831> into<WG1519> the highways<WG3598> and<WG2532> hedges<WG5418>, and<WG2532> compel<WG315> them to come in<WG1525>, that<WG2443> my<WG3450> house<WG3624> may be filled<WG1072>.


btext:
For<WG1063> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, That<WG3754> none<WG3762> of those<WG1565> men<WG435> which<WG3588> were bidden<WG2564> shall taste<WG1089> of my<WG3450> supper<WG1173>.


btext:
And<WG1161> there went<WG4848> great<WG4183> multitudes<WG3793> with him<WG846>: and<WG2532> he turned<WG4762>, and said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>,


btext:
If any<WG1536> man come<WG2064> to<WG4314> me<WG3165>, and<WG2532> hate<WG3404> not<WG3756> his<WG1438> father<WG3962>, and<WG2532> mother<WG3384>, and<WG2532> wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> children<WG5043>, and<WG2532> brethren<WG80>, and<WG2532> sisters<WG79>, yea<WG2089>, and<WG1161> his own<WG1438> life<WG5590> also<WG2532>, he cannot<WG3756><WG1410> be<WG1511> my<WG3450> disciple<WG3101>.


btext:
And<WG2532> whosoever<WG3748> doth<WG941> not<WG3756> bear<WG941> his<WG846> cross<WG4716>, and<WG2532> come<WG2064> after<WG3694> me<WG3450>, cannot<WG3756><WG1410> be<WG1511> my<WG3450> disciple<WG3101>.

btext:
Saying<WG3004>, This<WG3754><WG3778> man<WG444> began<WG756> to build<WG3618>, and<WG2532> was<WG2480> not<WG3756> able<WG2480> to finish<WG1615>.

Or else<WG1490>, while the other<WG846> is<WG5607> yet<WG2089> a great way off<WG4206>, he sendeth<WG649> an ambassage<WG4242>, and desireth<WG2065> conditions<WG4314> of peace<WG1515>.


btext:
So<WG3779> likewise<WG3767>, whosoever<WG3956> he be of<WG1537> you<WG5216> that<WG3739> forsaketh<WG657> not<WG3756> all<WG3956> that he hath<WG5224><WG1438>, he cannot<WG3756><WG1410> be<WG1511> my<WG3450> disciple<WG3101>.

Salt<WG217> is good<WG2570>: but<WG1161> if<WG1437> the salt<WG217> have lost his savour<WG3471>, wherewith<WG1722><WG5101> shall it be seasoned<WG741>?

It is<WG2076> neither<WG3777> fit<WG2111> for<WG1519> the land<WG1093>, nor yet<WG3777> for<WG1519> the dunghill<WG2874>; but men cast<WG906> it<WG846> out<WG1854>. He that hath<WG2192> ears<WG3775> to hear<WG191>, let him hear<WG191>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> drew near<WG2258><WG1448> unto him<WG846> all<WG3956> the publicans<WG5057> and<WG2532> sinners<WG268> for to hear<WG191> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the Pharisees<WG5330> and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122> murmured<WG1234>, saying<WG3004>, This man<WG3754><WG3778> receiveth<WG4327> sinners<WG268>, and<WG2532> eateth<WG4906> with them<WG846>.

And<WG2532> when he cometh<WG2064><WG1519> home<WG3624>, he calleth together<WG4779> his friends<WG5384> and<WG2532> neighbours<WG1069>, saying<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Rejoice<WG4796> with me<WG3427>; for<WG3754> I have found<WG2147> my<WG3450> sheep<WG4263> which<WG3588> was lost<WG622>.

And<WG2532> when she hath found<WG2147> it, she calleth<WG4779> her friends<WG5384> and<WG2532> her neighbours<WG1069> together<WG4779>, saying<WG3004>, Rejoice<WG4796> with me<WG3427>; for<WG3754> I have found<WG2147> the piece<WG1406> which<WG3739> I had lost<WG622>.

btext:
And<WG2532> the younger<WG3501> of them<WG846> said<WG2036> to his father<WG3962>, Father<WG3962>, give<WG1325> me<WG3427> the portion<WG3313> of goods<WG3776> that falleth<WG1911> to me. And<WG2532> he divided<WG1244> unto them<WG846> his living<WG979>.


btext:
And<WG2532> not<WG3756> many<WG4183> days<WG2250> after<WG3326> the younger<WG3501> son<WG5207> gathered<WG4863> all<WG537> together<WG4863>, and took his journey<WG589> into<WG1519> a far<WG3117> country<WG5561>, and<WG2532> there<WG1563> wasted<WG1287> his<WG846> substance<WG3776> with riotous<WG811> living<WG2198>.

And<WG1161> when he<WG846> had spent<WG1159> all<WG3956>, there arose<WG1096> a mighty<WG2478> famine<WG3042> in<WG2596> that<WG1565> land<WG5561>; and<WG2532> he<WG846> began<WG756> to be in want<WG5302>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went<WG4198> and joined himself<WG2853> to<WG1520> a citizen<WG4177> of that<WG1565> country<WG5561>; and<WG2532> he sent<WG3992> him<WG846> into<WG1519> his<WG846> fields<WG68> to feed<WG1006> swine<WG5519>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he would fain<WG1937> have filled<WG1072> his<WG846> belly<WG2836> with<WG575> the husks<WG2769> that<WG3739> the swine<WG5519> did eat<WG2068>: and<WG2532> no man<WG3762> gave<WG1325> unto him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he came<WG2064> to<WG1519> himself<WG1438>, he said<WG2036>, How many<WG4214> hired servants<WG3407> of my<WG3450> father's<WG3962> have bread<WG740> enough and to spare<WG4052>, and<WG1161> I<WG1473> perish<WG622> with hunger<WG3042>!

I will arise<WG450> and go<WG4198> to<WG4314> my<WG3450> father<WG3962>, and<WG2532> will say<WG2046> unto him<WG846>, Father<WG3962>, I have sinned<WG264> against<WG1519> heaven<WG3772>, and<WG2532> before<WG1799> thee<WG4675>,

And<WG2532> he arose<WG450>, and came<WG2064> to<WG4314> his<WG1438> father<WG3962>.

btext:
And<WG1161> the son<WG5207> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Father<WG3962>, I have sinned<WG264> against<WG1519> heaven<WG3772>, and<WG2532> in<WG1799> thy<WG4675> sight<WG1799>, and<WG2532> am<WG1510> no more<WG3765> worthy<WG514> to be called<WG2564> thy<WG4675> son<WG5207>.


btext:
But<WG1161> the father<WG3962> said<WG2036> to<WG4314> his<WG846> servants<WG1401>, Bring forth<WG1627> the best<WG4413> robe<WG4749>, and<WG2532> put it on<WG1746> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> put<WG1325> a ring<WG1146> on<WG1519> his<WG846> hand<WG5495>, and<WG2532> shoes<WG5266> on<WG1519> his feet<WG4228>:

And<WG2532> bring hither<WG5342> the fatted<WG4618> calf<WG3448>, and kill<WG2380> it; and<WG2532> let us eat<WG5315>, and be merry<WG2165>:

For<WG3754> this<WG3778> my<WG3450> son<WG5207> was<WG2258> dead<WG3498>, and<WG2532> is alive again<WG326><WG2532>; he was<WG2258> lost<WG622>, and<WG2532> is found<WG2147>. And<WG2532> they began<WG756> to be merry<WG2165>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> his<WG846> elder<WG4245> son<WG5207> was<WG2258> in<WG1722> the field<WG68>: and<WG2532> as<WG5613> he came<WG2064> and drew nigh<WG1448> to the house<WG3614>, he heard<WG191> musick<WG4858> and<WG2532> dancing<WG5525>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he called<WG4341> one<WG1520> of the servants<WG3816>, and asked<WG4441> what<WG5101> these things<WG5023> meant<WG1498>.


btext:

btext:
And<WG1161> he was angry<WG3710>, and<WG2532> would<WG2309> not<WG3756> go in<WG1525>: therefore<WG3767> came<WG1831> his<WG846> father<WG3962> out<WG1831>, and intreated<WG3870> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he answering<WG611> said<WG2036> to his father<WG3962>, Lo<WG2400>, these many<WG5118> years<WG2094> do I serve<WG1398> thee<WG4671>, neither<WG3763> transgressed I<WG3928> at any time<WG3763> thy<WG4675> commandment<WG1785>: and<WG2532> yet<WG2532> thou<WG1325> never<WG3763> gavest<WG1325> me<WG1698> a kid<WG2056>, that<WG2443> I might make merry<WG2165> with<WG3326> my<WG3450> friends<WG5384>:

btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Son<WG5043>, thou<WG4771> art<WG1488> ever<WG3842> with<WG3326> me<WG1700>, and<WG2532> all<WG3956> that I have<WG1699> is<WG2076> thine<WG4674>.


btext:
It was<WG1161> meet<WG1163> that we should make merry<WG2165>, and<WG2532> be glad<WG5463>: for<WG3754> this<WG3778> thy<WG4675> brother<WG80> was<WG2258> dead<WG3498>, and<WG2532> is alive again<WG326>; and<WG2532> was<WG2258> lost<WG622>, and<WG2532> is found<WG2147>.

And<WG1161> he said<WG3004> also<WG2532> unto<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, There was<WG2258> a certain<WG5100> rich<WG4145> man<WG444>, which<WG3739> had<WG2192> a steward<WG3623>; and<WG2532> the same<WG3778> was accused<WG1225> unto him<WG846> that<WG5613> he had wasted<WG1287> his<WG846> goods<WG5224>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he called<WG5455> him<WG846>, and said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, How<WG5101> is it that I hear<WG191> this<WG5124> of<WG4012> thee<WG4675>? give<WG591> an account<WG3056> of thy<WG4675> stewardship<WG3622>; for<WG1063> thou mayest be<WG1410> no<WG3756> longer<WG2089> steward<WG3621>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> the steward<WG3623> said<WG2036> within<WG1722> himself<WG1438>, What<WG5101> shall I do<WG4160>? for<WG3754> my<WG3450> lord<WG2962> taketh away<WG851> from<WG575> me<WG1700> the stewardship<WG3622>: I cannot<WG3756><WG2480> dig<WG4626>; to beg<WG1871> I am ashamed<WG153>.


btext:
I am resolved<WG1097> what<WG5101> to do<WG4160>, that<WG2443>, when<WG3752> I am put out<WG3179> of the stewardship<WG3622>, they may receive<WG1209> me<WG3165> into<WG1519> their<WG846> houses<WG3624>.


btext:
So<WG2532> he called<WG4341> every<WG1538> one<WG1520> of his<WG1438> lord's<WG2962> debtors<WG5533> unto him, and said<WG3004> unto the first<WG4413>, How much<WG4214> owest thou<WG3784> unto my<WG3450> lord<WG2962>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, An hundred<WG1540> measures<WG943> of oil<WG1637>. And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Take<WG1209> thy<WG4675> bill<WG1121>, and<WG2532> sit down<WG2523> quickly<WG5030>, and write<WG1125> fifty<WG4004>. / measures: the word Batus in the original containeth nine gallons three quarts


btext:
Then<WG1899> said he<WG2036> to another<WG2087>, And<WG1161> how much<WG4214> owest<WG3784> thou<WG4771>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, An hundred<WG1540> measures<WG2884> of wheat<WG4621>. And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Take<WG1209> thy<WG4675> bill<WG1121>, and<WG2532> write<WG1125> fourscore<WG3589>. / measures: the word here interpreted a measure in the original containeth about fourteen bushels and two quarts


btext:
And<WG2532> the lord<WG2962> commended<WG1867> the unjust<WG93> steward<WG3623>, because<WG3754> he had done<WG4160> wisely<WG5430>: for<WG3754> the children<WG5207> of this<WG5127> world<WG165> are<WG1526> in<WG1519> their<WG1438> generation<WG1074> wiser<WG5429> than<WG5228> the children<WG5207> of light<WG5457>.


btext:
And I<WG2504> say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Make<WG4160> to yourselves<WG1438> friends<WG5384> of<WG1537> the mammon<WG3126> of unrighteousness<WG93>; that<WG2443>, when<WG3752> ye fail<WG1587>, they may receive<WG1209> you<WG5209> into<WG1519> everlasting<WG166> habitations<WG4633>. / mammon: or, riches


btext:
He that is faithful<WG4103> in<WG1722> that which is least<WG1646> is<WG2076> faithful<WG4103> also<WG2532> in<WG1722> much<WG4183>: and<WG2532> he that is unjust<WG94> in<WG1722> the least<WG1646> is<WG2076> unjust<WG94> also<WG2532> in<WG1722> much<WG4183>.


btext:
If<WG1487> therefore<WG3767> ye have<WG1096> not<WG3756> been<WG1096> faithful<WG4103> in<WG1722> the unrighteous<WG94> mammon<WG3126>, who<WG5101> will commit<WG4100> to your<WG5213> trust<WG4100> the true<WG228> riches? / mammon: or, riches


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1487> ye have<WG1096> not<WG3756> been<WG1096> faithful<WG4103> in<WG1722> that which is another man's<WG245>, who<WG5101> shall give<WG1325> you<WG5213> that which is your own<WG5212>?


btext:
No<WG3762> servant<WG3610> can<WG1410> serve<WG1398> two<WG1417> masters<WG2962>: for<WG1063> either<WG2228> he will hate<WG3404> the one<WG1520>, and<WG2532> love<WG25> the other<WG2087>; or else<WG2228> he will hold<WG472> to the one<WG1520>, and<WG2532> despise<WG2706> the other<WG2087>. Ye cannot<WG3756><WG1410> serve<WG1398> God<WG2316> and<WG2532> mammon<WG3126>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the Pharisees<WG5330> also<WG2532>, who were<WG5225> covetous<WG5366>, heard<WG191> all<WG3956> these things<WG5023>: and<WG2532> they derided<WG1592> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Ye<WG5210> are<WG2075> they which justify<WG1344> yourselves<WG1438> before<WG1799> men<WG444>; but<WG1161> God<WG2316> knoweth<WG1097> your<WG5216> hearts<WG2588>: for<WG3754> that which is highly esteemed<WG5308> among<WG1722> men<WG444> is<WG2076> abomination<WG946> in the sight<WG1799> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
The law<WG3551> and<WG2532> the prophets<WG4396> were until<WG2193> John<WG2491>: since<WG575> that time<WG5119> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> is preached<WG2097>, and<WG2532> every man<WG3956> presseth<WG971> into<WG1519> it<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it is<WG2076> easier<WG2123> for heaven<WG3772> and<WG2532> earth<WG1093> to pass<WG3928>, than<WG2228> one<WG3391> tittle<WG2762> of the law<WG3551> to fail<WG4098>.


btext:
Whosoever<WG3956> putteth away<WG630> his<WG846> wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> marrieth<WG1060> another<WG2087>, committeth adultery<WG3431>: and<WG2532> whosoever<WG3956> marrieth<WG1060> her that is put away<WG630> from<WG575> her husband<WG435> committeth adultery<WG3431>.


btext:
<WG1161> There was<WG2258> a certain<WG5100> rich<WG4145> man<WG444>, which<WG2532> was clothed<WG1737> in purple<WG4209> and<WG2532> fine linen<WG1040>, and fared<WG2165> sumptuously<WG2988> every<WG2596> day<WG2250>:


btext:
And<WG1161> there was<WG2258> a certain<WG5100> beggar<WG4434> named<WG3686> Lazarus<WG2976>, which<WG3739> was laid<WG906> at<WG4314> his<WG846> gate<WG4440>, full of sores<WG1669>,


btext:
And<WG2532> desiring<WG1937> to be fed<WG5526> with<WG575> the crumbs<WG5589> which<WG3588> fell<WG4098> from<WG575> the rich man's<WG4145> table<WG5132>: moreover<WG235><WG2532> the dogs<WG2965> came<WG2064> and licked<WG621> his<WG846> sores<WG1668>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, that the beggar<WG4434> died<WG599>, and<WG2532> was carried<WG667> by<WG5259> the angels<WG32> into<WG1519> Abraham's<WG11> bosom<WG2859>: the rich man<WG4145> also<WG1161><WG2532> died<WG599>, and<WG2532> was buried<WG2290>;


btext:
And<WG2532> in<WG1722> hell<WG86> he lift up<WG1869> his<WG846> eyes<WG3788>, being<WG5225> in<WG1722> torments<WG931>, and seeth<WG3708> Abraham<WG11> afar<WG3113> off<WG575>, and<WG2532> Lazarus<WG2976> in<WG1722> his<WG846> bosom<WG2859>.


btext:
And<WG2532><WG846> he cried<WG5455> and said<WG2036>, Father<WG3962> Abraham<WG11>, have mercy<WG1653> on me<WG3165>, and<WG2532> send<WG3992> Lazarus<WG2976>, that<WG2443> he may dip<WG911> the tip<WG206> of his<WG846> finger<WG1147> in water<WG5204>, and<WG2532> cool<WG2711> my<WG3450> tongue<WG1100>; for<WG3754> I am tormented<WG3600> in<WG1722> this<WG5026> flame<WG5395>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Abraham<WG11> said<WG2036>, Son<WG5043>, remember<WG3415> that<WG3754> thou<WG4771> in<WG1722> thy<WG4675> lifetime<WG2222> receivedst<WG618> thy<WG4675> good things<WG18>, and<WG2532> likewise<WG3668> Lazarus<WG2976> evil things<WG2556>: but<WG1161> now<WG3568><WG3592> he is comforted<WG3870>, and<WG1161> thou<WG4771> art tormented<WG3600>.


btext:
And<WG2532> beside<WG1909> all<WG3956> this<WG5125>, between<WG3342> us<WG2257> and<WG2532> you<WG5216> there is<WG4741> a great<WG3173> gulf<WG5490> fixed<WG4741>: so that<WG3704> they which would<WG2309> pass<WG1224> from hence<WG1782> to<WG4314> you<WG5209> cannot<WG3361><WG1410>; neither<WG3366> can they pass<WG1276> to<WG4314> us<WG2248>, that would come from thence<WG1564>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, I pray<WG2065> thee<WG4571> therefore<WG3767>, father<WG3962>, that<WG2443> thou wouldest send<WG3992> him<WG846> to<WG1519> my<WG3450> father's<WG3962> house<WG3624>:


btext:
For<WG1063> I have<WG2192> five<WG4002> brethren<WG80>; that<WG3704> he may testify<WG1263> unto them<WG846>, lest<WG3363> they<WG846> also<WG2532> come<WG2064> into<WG1519> this<WG5126> place<WG5117> of torment<WG931>.


btext:
Abraham<WG11> saith<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, They have<WG2192> Moses<WG3475> and<WG2532> the prophets<WG4396>; let them hear<WG191> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Nay<WG3780>, father<WG3962> Abraham<WG11>: but<WG235> if<WG1437> one<WG5100> went<WG4198> unto<WG4314> them<WG846> from<WG575> the dead<WG3498>, they will repent<WG3340>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, If<WG1487> they hear<WG191> not<WG3756> Moses<WG3475> and<WG2532> the prophets<WG4396>, neither<WG3761> will they be persuaded<WG3982>, though<WG1437> one<WG5100> rose<WG450> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said he<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the disciples<WG3101>, It is<WG2076> impossible<WG418> but<WG3361> that offences<WG4625> will come<WG2064>: but<WG1161> woe<WG3759> unto him, through<WG1223> whom<WG3739> they come<WG2064>!


btext:
It were better<WG3081> for him<WG846> that<WG1487> a millstone<WG3458><WG3684> were hanged<WG4029> about<WG4012> his<WG846> neck<WG5137>, and<WG2532> he cast<WG4496> into<WG1519> the sea<WG2281>, than<WG2228> that<WG2443> he should offend<WG4624> one<WG1520> of these<WG5130> little ones<WG3398>.


btext:
Take heed<WG4337> to yourselves<WG1438>: If<WG1161><WG1437> thy<WG4675> brother<WG80> trespass<WG264> against<WG1519> thee<WG4571>, rebuke<WG2008> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> if<WG1437> he repent<WG3340>, forgive<WG863> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437> he trespass<WG264> against<WG1519> thee<WG4571> seven times<WG2034> in a day<WG2250>, and<WG2532> seven times<WG2034> in a day<WG2250> turn again<WG1994> to<WG1909> thee<WG4571>, saying<WG3004>, I repent<WG3340>; thou shalt forgive<WG863> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the apostles<WG652> said<WG2036> unto the Lord<WG2962>, Increase<WG4369> our<WG2254> faith<WG4102>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the Lord<WG2962> said<WG2036>, If<WG1487> ye had<WG2192> faith<WG4102> as<WG5613> a grain<WG2848> of mustard seed<WG4615>, ye might<WG302> say<WG3004> unto this<WG5026> sycamine<WG4807> tree, Be thou plucked up by the root<WG1610>, and<WG2532> be thou planted<WG5452> in<WG1722> the sea<WG2281>; and<WG2532> it should<WG302> obey<WG5219> you<WG5213>.


btext:
But<WG1161> which<WG5101> of<WG1537> you<WG5216>, having<WG2192> a servant<WG1401> plowing<WG722> or<WG2228> feeding cattle<WG4165>, will say<WG2046> unto him<WG3739> by and by<WG2112>, when he is come<WG1525> from<WG1537> the field<WG68>, Go<WG3928> and sit down to meat<WG377>?


btext:
And<WG235> will not<WG3780> rather say<WG2046> unto him<WG846>, Make ready<WG2090> wherewith<WG5101> I may sup<WG1172>, and<WG2532> gird thyself<WG4024>, and serve<WG1247> me<WG3427>, till<WG2193> I have eaten<WG5315> and<WG2532> drunken<WG4095>; and<WG2532> afterward<WG3326><WG5023> thou<WG4771> shalt eat<WG5315> and<WG2532> drink<WG4095>?


btext:
<WG3361> Doth he<WG2192> thank<WG5485> that<WG1565> servant<WG1401> because<WG3754> he did<WG4160> the things that were commanded<WG1299> him<WG846>? I trow<WG1380> not<WG3756>.


btext:
So<WG3779> likewise<WG2532> ye<WG5210>, when<WG3752> ye shall have done<WG4160> all<WG3956> those things which are commanded<WG1299> you<WG5213>, say<WG3004><WG3754>, We are<WG2070> unprofitable<WG888> servants<WG1401><WG3754>: we have done<WG4160> that which<WG3739> was our duty<WG3784> to do<WG4160>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, as<WG1722> he<WG846> went<WG4198> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2419>, that<WG2532> he<WG846> passed<WG1330> through<WG1223> the midst<WG3319> of Samaria<WG4540> and<WG2532> Galilee<WG1056>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as he<WG846> entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> a certain<WG5100> village<WG2968>, there met<WG528> him<WG846> ten<WG1176> men<WG435> that were lepers<WG3015>, which<WG3739> stood<WG2476> afar off<WG4207>:


btext:
And<WG2532> they<WG846> lifted up<WG142> their voices<WG5456>, and said<WG3004>, Jesus<WG2424>, Master<WG1988>, have mercy<WG1653> on us<WG2248>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he saw<WG1492> them, he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Go<WG4198> shew<WG1925> yourselves<WG1438> unto the priests<WG2409>. And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, that, as they<WG846> went<WG5217><WG1722>, they were cleansed<WG2511>.


btext:
And<WG1161> one<WG1520> of<WG1537> them<WG846>, when he saw<WG1492> that<WG3754> he was healed<WG2390>, turned back<WG5290>, and with<WG3326> a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456> glorified<WG1392> God<WG2316>,


btext:
And<WG2532> fell down<WG4098> on<WG1909> his face<WG4383> at<WG3844> his<WG846> feet<WG4228>, giving<WG2168> him<WG846> thanks<WG2168>: and<WG2532> he<WG846> was<WG2258> a Samaritan<WG4541>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036>, Were there<WG2511> not<WG3780> ten<WG1176> cleansed<WG2511>? but<WG1161> where<WG4226> are the nine<WG1767>?


btext:
There are<WG2147> not<WG3756> found<WG2147> that returned<WG5290> to give<WG1325> glory<WG1391> to God<WG2316>, save<WG1508> this<WG3778> stranger<WG241>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Arise<WG450>, go thy way<WG4198>: thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> hath made<WG4982> thee<WG4571> whole<WG4982>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he was demanded<WG1905> of<WG5259> the Pharisees<WG5330>, when<WG4219> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> should come<WG2064>, he answered<WG611> them<WG846> and<WG2532> said<WG2036>, The kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> cometh<WG2064> not<WG3756> with<WG3326> observation<WG3907>: / with…: or, with outward shew


btext:
Neither<WG3761> shall they say<WG2046>, Lo<WG2400> here<WG5602>! or<WG2228>, lo<WG2400> there<WG1563>! for<WG1063>, behold<WG2400>, the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> is<WG2076> within<WG1787> you<WG5216>. / within you: or, among you


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the disciples<WG3101>, The days<WG2250> will come<WG2064>, when<WG3753> ye shall desire<WG1937> to see<WG1492> one<WG3391> of the days<WG2250> of the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444>, and<WG2532> ye shall<WG3700> not<WG3756> see<WG3700> it.


btext:
And<WG2532> they shall say<WG2046> to you<WG5213>, See<WG2400> here<WG5602>; or<WG2228>, see<WG2400> there<WG1563>: go<WG565> not<WG3361> after<WG565> them, nor<WG3366> follow<WG1377> them.

For<WG1063> as<WG5618> the lightning<WG796>, that lighteneth<WG797> out of<WG1537> the one part under<WG5259> heaven<WG3772>, shineth<WG2989> unto<WG1519> the other part under<WG5259> heaven<WG3772>; so<WG3779> shall also<WG2532> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> be<WG2071> in<WG1722> his<WG846> day<WG2250>.


btext:
But<WG1161> first<WG4412> must<WG1163> he<WG846> suffer<WG3958> many things<WG4183>, and<WG2532> be rejected<WG593> of<WG575> this<WG5026> generation<WG1074>.

And<WG2532> they answered<WG611> and said<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Where<WG4226>, Lord<WG2962>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Wheresoever<WG3699> the body<WG4983> is, thither<WG1563> will<WG4863> the eagles<WG105> be gathered together<WG4863>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he spake<WG3004><WG2532> a parable<WG3850> unto them<WG846><WG4314> to this end, that men ought<WG1163> always<WG3842> to pray<WG4336>, and<WG2532> not<WG3361> to faint<WG1573>;

Saying<WG3004>, There was<WG2258> in<WG1722> a<WG5100> city<WG4172> a<WG5100> judge<WG2923>, which feared<WG5399> not<WG3361> God<WG2316>, neither<WG2532><WG3361> regarded<WG1788> man<WG444>: / in a city: Gr. in a certain city

And<WG1161> there was<WG2258> a widow<WG5503> in<WG1722> that<WG1565> city<WG4172>; and<WG2532> she came<WG2064> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Avenge<WG1556> me<WG3165> of<WG575> mine<WG3450> adversary<WG476>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he would<WG2309> not<WG3756> for<WG1909> a while<WG5550>: but<WG1161> afterward<WG5023><WG3326> he said<WG2036> within<WG1722> himself<WG1438>, Though<WG1499> I fear<WG5399> not<WG3756> God<WG2316>, nor<WG2532><WG3756> regard<WG1788> man<WG444>;


btext:
Yet<WG1065> because<WG1223> this<WG5026> widow<WG5503> troubleth<WG3930><WG2873> me<WG3427>, I will avenge<WG1556> her<WG846>, lest<WG3363> by<WG1519> her continual<WG5056> coming<WG2064> she weary<WG5299> me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the Lord<WG2962> said<WG2036>, Hear<WG191> what<WG5101> the unjust<WG93> judge<WG2923> saith<WG3004>.

I tell<WG3004> you<WG5213> that<WG3754> he will<WG4160> avenge<WG1557> them<WG846> speedily<WG5034><WG1722>. Nevertheless<WG4133> when<WG687> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> cometh<WG2064>, shall he find<WG2147> faith<WG4102> on<WG1909> the earth<WG1093>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he spake<WG2036><WG2532> this<WG5026> parable<WG3850> unto<WG4314> certain<WG5100> which<WG3588> trusted<WG3982> in<WG1909> themselves<WG1438> that<WG3754> they were<WG1526> righteous<WG1342>, and<WG2532> despised<WG1848> others<WG3062>: / that…: or, as being righteous

Two<WG1417> men<WG444> went up<WG305> into<WG1519> the temple<WG2411> to pray<WG4336>; the one<WG1520> a Pharisee<WG5330>, and<WG2532> the other<WG2087> a publican<WG5057>.


btext:
The Pharisee<WG5330> stood<WG2476> and prayed<WG4336> thus<WG5023> with<WG4314> himself<WG1438>, God<WG2316>, I thank<WG2168> thee<WG4671>, that<WG3754> I am<WG1510> not<WG3756> as<WG5618> other<WG3062> men<WG444> are, extortioners<WG727>, unjust<WG94>, adulterers<WG3432>, or<WG2228> even<WG2532> as<WG5613> this<WG3778> publican<WG5057>.


btext:
I fast<WG3522> twice<WG1364> in the week<WG4521>, I give tithes<WG586> of all<WG3956> that<WG3745> I possess<WG2932>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the publican<WG5057>, standing<WG2476> afar off<WG3113>, would<WG2309> not<WG3756> lift up<WG1869> so much as<WG3761> his eyes<WG3788> unto<WG1519> heaven<WG3772>, but<WG235> smote<WG5180> upon<WG1519> his<WG846> breast<WG4738>, saying<WG3004>, God<WG2316> be merciful<WG2433> to me<WG3427> a sinner<WG268>.


btext:
I tell<WG3004> you<WG5213>, this man<WG3778> went down<WG2597> to<WG1519> his<WG846> house<WG3624> justified<WG1344> rather than<WG2228> the other<WG1565>: for<WG3754> every one<WG3956> that exalteth<WG5312> himself<WG1438> shall be abased<WG5013>; and<WG1161> he that humbleth<WG5013> himself<WG1438> shall be exalted<WG5312>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they brought<WG4374> unto him<WG846> also<WG2532> infants<WG1025>, that<WG2443> he would touch<WG680> them<WG846>: but<WG1161> when his disciples<WG3101> saw<WG1492> it, they rebuked<WG2008> them<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> called<WG4341> them<WG846> unto him, and said<WG2036>, Suffer<WG863> little children<WG3813> to come<WG2064> unto<WG4314> me<WG3165>, and<WG2532> forbid<WG2967> them<WG846> not<WG3361>: for<WG1063> of such<WG5108> is<WG2076> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, Whosoever<WG3739> shall<WG1209> not<WG3362> receive<WG1209> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> as<WG5613> a little child<WG3813> shall<WG1525> in no wise<WG3364> enter<WG1525> therein<WG1519><WG846>.

And<WG2532> a certain<WG5100> ruler<WG758> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Good<WG18> Master<WG1320>, what<WG5101> shall I do<WG4160> to inherit<WG2816> eternal<WG166> life<WG2222>?


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Why<WG5101> callest thou<WG3004> me<WG3165> good<WG18>? none<WG3762> is good<WG18>, save<WG1508> one<WG1520>, that is, God<WG2316>.


btext:
Thou knowest<WG1492> the commandments<WG1785>, Do<WG3431> not<WG3361> commit adultery<WG3431>, Do<WG5407> not<WG3361> kill<WG5407>, Do<WG2813> not<WG3361> steal<WG2813>, Do<WG5576> not<WG3361> bear false witness<WG5576>, Honour<WG5091> thy<WG4675> father<WG3962> and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> mother<WG3384>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, All<WG3956> these<WG5023> have I kept<WG5442> from<WG1537> my<WG3450> youth<WG3503> up.


btext:
Now<WG1161> when Jesus<WG2424> heard<WG191> these things<WG5023>, he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Yet<WG2089> lackest<WG3007> thou<WG4671> one<WG1520> thing: sell<WG4453> all<WG3956> that<WG3745> thou hast<WG2192>, and<WG2532> distribute<WG1239> unto the poor<WG4434>, and<WG2532> thou shalt have<WG2192> treasure<WG2344> in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>: and<WG2532> come<WG1204>, follow<WG190> me<WG3427>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he heard<WG191> this<WG5023>, he was<WG1096> very sorrowful<WG4036>: for<WG1063> he was<WG2258> very<WG4970> rich<WG4145>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when Jesus<WG2424> saw<WG1492> that he<WG846> was<WG1096> very sorrowful<WG4036>, he said<WG2036>, How<WG4459> hardly<WG1423> shall they<WG1525> that have<WG2192> riches<WG5536> enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>!


btext:
For<WG1063> it is<WG2076> easier<WG2123> for a camel<WG2574> to go<WG1525> through<WG1223> a needle's<WG4476> eye<WG5168>, than<WG2228> for a rich man<WG4145> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they that heard<WG191> it said<WG2036>, Who<WG5101> then<WG2532> can be<WG1410> saved<WG4982>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, The things which are impossible<WG102> with<WG3844> men<WG444> are<WG2076> possible<WG1415> with<WG3844> God<WG2316>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> Peter<WG4074> said<WG2036>, Lo<WG2400>, we<WG2249> have left<WG863> all<WG3956>, and<WG2532> followed<WG190> thee<WG4671>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, There is<WG2076> no man<WG3762> that<WG3739> hath left<WG863> house<WG3614>, or<WG2228> parents<WG1118>, or<WG2228> brethren<WG80>, or<WG2228> wife<WG1135>, or<WG2228> children<WG5043>, for<WG1752> the kingdom<WG932> of God's<WG2316> sake<WG1752>,


btext:
Who<WG3739> shall<WG618> not<WG3364> receive<WG618> manifold more<WG4179> in<WG1722> this<WG5129> present time<WG2540>, and<WG2532> in<WG1722> the world<WG165> to come<WG2064> life<WG2222> everlasting<WG166>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> he took<WG3880> unto him the twelve<WG1427>, and said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Behold<WG2400>, we go up<WG305> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>, and<WG2532> all things<WG3956> that are written<WG1125> by<WG1223> the prophets<WG4396> concerning the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> shall be accomplished<WG5055>.


btext:
For<WG1063> he shall be delivered<WG3860> unto the Gentiles<WG1484>, and<WG2532> shall be mocked<WG1702>, and<WG2532> spitefully entreated<WG5195>, and<WG2532> spitted on<WG1716>:


btext:
And<WG2532> they shall scourge<WG3146> him, and put<WG615> him<WG846> to death<WG615>: and<WG2532> the third<WG5154> day<WG2250> he shall rise again<WG450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they<WG846> understood<WG4920> none<WG3762> of these things<WG5130>: and<WG2532> this<WG5124> saying<WG4487> was<WG2258> hid<WG2928> from<WG575> them<WG846><WG2532>, neither<WG3756> knew they<WG1097> the things which were spoken<WG3004>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it came to pass<WG1096>, that as<WG1722> he<WG846> was come nigh<WG1448> unto<WG1519> Jericho<WG2410>, a certain<WG5100> blind man<WG5185> sat<WG2521> by<WG3844> the way side<WG3598> begging<WG4319>:


btext:
And<WG1161> hearing<WG191> the multitude<WG3793> pass by<WG1279>, he asked<WG4441> what<WG5101> it<WG5124> meant<WG1498>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they told<WG518> him<WG846>, that<WG3754> Jesus<WG2424> of Nazareth<WG3480> passeth by<WG3928>.

And<WG2532> he cried<WG994>, saying<WG3004>, Jesus<WG2424>, thou Son<WG5207> of David<WG1138>, have mercy<WG1653> on me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they which went before<WG4254> rebuked<WG2008> him<WG846>, that<WG2443> he should hold his peace<WG4623>: but<WG1161> he<WG846> cried<WG2896> so much<WG4183> the more<WG3123>, Thou Son<WG5207> of David<WG1138>, have mercy<WG1653> on me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> stood<WG2476>, and commanded<WG2753> him<WG846> to be brought<WG71> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>: and<WG1161> when he<WG846> was come near<WG1448>, he asked<WG1905> him<WG846>,


btext:
Saying<WG3004>, What<WG5101> wilt thou<WG2309> that I shall do<WG4160> unto thee<WG4671>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, that<WG2443> I may receive my sight<WG308>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Receive thy sight<WG308>: thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> hath saved<WG4982> thee<WG4571>.


btext:
And<WG2532> immediately<WG3916> he received his sight<WG308>, and<WG2532> followed<WG190> him<WG846>, glorifying<WG1392> God<WG2316>: and<WG2532> all<WG3956> the people<WG2992>, when they saw<WG1492> it, gave<WG1325> praise<WG136> unto God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, there was a man<WG435> named<WG3686><WG2564> Zacchaeus<WG2195>, which<WG2532><WG846> was<WG2258> the chief among the publicans<WG754>, and<WG2532> he<WG3778> was<WG2258> rich<WG4145>.

And<WG2532> he sought<WG2212> to see<WG1492> Jesus<WG2424> who<WG5101> he was<WG2076>; and<WG2532> could<WG1410> not<WG3756> for<WG575> the press<WG3793>, because<WG3754> he was<WG2258> little<WG3398> of stature<WG2244>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he ran<WG4390> before<WG1715>, and climbed up<WG305> into<WG1909> a sycomore tree<WG4809> to<WG2443> see<WG1492> him<WG846>: for<WG3754> he was<WG3195> to pass<WG1330><WG1223> that<WG1565> way.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG5613> Jesus<WG2424> came<WG2064> to<WG1909> the place<WG5117>, he looked up<WG308>, and saw<WG1492> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Zacchaeus<WG2195>, make haste<WG4692>, and come down<WG2597>; for<WG1063> to day<WG4594> I<WG3165> must<WG1163> abide<WG3306> at<WG1722> thy<WG4675> house<WG3624>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he made haste<WG4692>, and came down<WG2597>, and<WG2532> received<WG5264> him<WG846> joyfully<WG5463>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they saw<WG1492> it, they<WG1234> all<WG537> murmured<WG1234>, saying<WG3004>, That<WG3754> he was gone<WG1525> to be guest<WG2647> with<WG3844> a man<WG435> that is a sinner<WG268>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Zacchaeus<WG2195> stood<WG2476>, and said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the Lord<WG2962>; Behold<WG2400>, Lord<WG2962>, the half<WG2255> of my<WG3450> goods<WG5224> I give<WG1325> to the poor<WG4434>; and<WG2532> if<WG1536> I have taken<WG4811> any thing<WG1536> from any man<WG5100> by false accusation<WG4811>, I restore<WG591> him fourfold<WG5073>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846><WG3754>, This day<WG4594> is<WG1096> salvation<WG4991> come<WG1096> to this<WG5129> house<WG3624>, forsomuch as<WG2530> he<WG846> also<WG2532> is<WG2076> a son<WG5207> of Abraham<WG11>.

For<WG1063> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> is come<WG2064> to seek<WG2212> and<WG2532> to save<WG4982> that which was lost<WG622>.

And<WG1161> as they<WG846> heard<WG191> these things<WG5023>, he added<WG4369> and spake<WG2036> a parable<WG3850>, because<WG1223> he<WG846> was<WG1511> nigh<WG1451> to Jerusalem<WG2419>, and<WG2532> because they<WG846> thought<WG1380> that<WG3754> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> should<WG3195> immediately<WG3916> appear<WG398>.

He said<WG2036> therefore<WG3767>, A certain<WG5100> nobleman<WG444><WG2104> went<WG4198> into<WG1519> a far<WG3117> country<WG5561> to receive<WG2983> for himself<WG1438> a kingdom<WG932>, and<WG2532> to return<WG5290>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he called<WG2564> his<WG1438> ten<WG1176> servants<WG1401>, and delivered<WG1325> them<WG846> ten<WG1176> pounds<WG3414>, and<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Occupy<WG4231> till<WG2193> I come<WG2064>. / pounds: mina, here translated a pound, is twelve ounces and an half: which according to five shillings the ounce is three pounds two shillings and sixpence


btext:
But<WG1161> his<WG846> citizens<WG4177> hated<WG3404> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> sent<WG649> a message<WG4242> after<WG3694> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, We will<WG2309> not<WG3756> have<WG2309> this<WG5126> man to reign<WG936> over<WG1909> us<WG2248>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, that when<WG1722> he<WG846> was returned<WG1880>, having received<WG2983> the kingdom<WG932>, then<WG2532> he commanded<WG2036> these<WG5128> servants<WG1401> to be called<WG5455> unto him<WG846>, to whom<WG3739> he had given<WG1325> the money<WG694>, that<WG2443> he might know<WG1097> how much<WG5101> every man<WG5101> had gained by trading<WG1281>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> came<WG3854> the first<WG4413>, saying<WG3004>, Lord<WG2962>, thy<WG4675> pound<WG3414> hath gained<WG4333> ten<WG1176> pounds<WG3414>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Well<WG2095>, thou good<WG18> servant<WG1401>: because<WG3754> thou hast been<WG1096> faithful<WG4103> in<WG1722> a very little<WG1646>, have<WG2192> thou authority<WG2468><WG1849> over<WG1883> ten<WG1176> cities<WG4172>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the second<WG1208> came<WG2064>, saying<WG3004>, Lord<WG2962>, thy<WG4675> pound<WG3414> hath gained<WG4160> five<WG4002> pounds<WG3414>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> likewise<WG2532> to him<WG5129>, Be<WG1096> thou<WG4771> also<WG2532> over<WG1883> five<WG4002> cities<WG4172>.


btext:
And<WG2532> another<WG2087> came<WG2064>, saying<WG3004>, Lord<WG2962>, behold<WG2400>, here is thy<WG4675> pound<WG3414>, which<WG3739> I have<WG2192> kept laid up<WG606> in<WG1722> a napkin<WG4676>:


btext:
For<WG1063> I feared<WG5399> thee<WG4571>, because<WG3754> thou art<WG1488> an austere<WG840> man<WG444>: thou takest up<WG142> that<WG3739> thou layedst<WG5087> not<WG3756> down<WG5087>, and<WG2532> reapest<WG2325> that<WG3739> thou didst<WG4687> not<WG3756> sow<WG4687>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he saith<WG3004> unto him<WG846>, Out of<WG1537> thine own<WG4675> mouth<WG4750> will I judge<WG2919> thee<WG4571>, thou wicked<WG4190> servant<WG1401>. Thou knewest<WG1492> that<WG3754> I<WG1473> was<WG1510> an austere<WG840> man<WG444>, taking up<WG142> that<WG3739> I laid<WG5087> not<WG3756> down<WG5087>, and<WG2532> reaping<WG2325> that<WG3739> I did<WG4687> not<WG3756> sow<WG4687>:


btext:
Wherefore<WG1302> then<WG2532> gavest<WG1325> not<WG3756> thou<WG1325> my<WG3450> money<WG694> into<WG1909> the bank<WG5132>, that<WG2532> at my coming<WG2064> I<WG1473> might<WG302> have required<WG4238> mine own<WG846> with<WG4862> usury<WG5110>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them that stood by<WG3936>, Take<WG142> from<WG575> him<WG846> the pound<WG3414>, and<WG2532> give<WG1325> it to him that hath<WG2192> ten<WG1176> pounds<WG3414>.


btext:
(And<WG2532> they said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962>, he hath<WG2192> ten<WG1176> pounds<WG3414>.)


btext:
For<WG1063> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, That<WG3754> unto every one<WG3956> which<WG3588> hath<WG2192> shall be given<WG1325>; and<WG1161> from<WG575> him that hath<WG2192> not<WG3361>, even<WG2532> that<WG3739> he hath<WG2192> shall be taken away<WG142> from<WG575> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG4133> those<WG1565> mine<WG3450> enemies<WG2190>, which<WG3588> would<WG2309> not<WG3361> that I<WG3165> should reign<WG936> over<WG1909> them<WG846>, bring<WG71> hither<WG5602>, and<WG2532> slay<WG2695> them before<WG1715> me<WG3450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he had thus<WG5023> spoken<WG2036>, he went<WG4198> before<WG1715>, ascending up<WG305> to<WG1519> Jerusalem<WG2414>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, when<WG5613> he was come nigh<WG1448> to<WG1519> Bethphage<WG967> and<WG2532> Bethany<WG963>, at<WG4314> the mount<WG3735> called<WG2564> the mount of Olives<WG1636>, he sent<WG649> two<WG1417> of his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>,


btext:
Saying<WG2036>, Go ye<WG5217> into<WG1519> the village<WG2968> over against<WG2713> you; in<WG1722> the which<WG3739> at your entering<WG1531> ye shall find<WG2147> a colt<WG4454> tied<WG1210>, whereon<WG1909><WG3739> yet never<WG3762> man<WG444> sat<WG2523><WG4455>: loose<WG3089> him<WG846>, and bring<WG71> him hither.


btext:
And<WG2532> if<WG1437> any man<WG5100> ask<WG2065> you<WG5209>, Why<WG1302> do ye loose<WG3089> him? thus<WG3779> shall ye say<WG2046> unto him<WG846>, Because<WG3754> the Lord<WG2962> hath<WG2192> need<WG5532> of him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they that were sent<WG649> went their way<WG565>, and found<WG2147> even as<WG2531> he had said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> as they<WG846> were loosing<WG3089> the colt<WG4454>, the owners<WG2962> thereof<WG846> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> loose ye<WG3089> the colt<WG4454>?


btext:
And<WG2532> they brought<WG71> him<WG846> to<WG4314> Jesus<WG2424>: and<WG2532> they cast<WG1977> their<WG1438> garments<WG2440> upon<WG1909><WG1977> the colt<WG4454>, and<WG1977> they set<WG1913> Jesus<WG2424> thereon<WG1913>.


btext:
And<WG1161> as he<WG846> went<WG4198>, they spread<WG5291> their<WG846> clothes<WG2440> in<WG1722> the way<WG3598>.


btext:
And when he<WG846> was come nigh<WG1448>, even<WG1161> now<WG2235> at<WG4314> the descent<WG2600> of the mount<WG3735> of Olives<WG1636>, the whole<WG537> multitude<WG4128> of the disciples<WG3101> began<WG756> to rejoice<WG5463> and praise<WG134> God<WG2316> with a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456> for<WG4012> all<WG3956> the mighty works<WG1411> that<WG3739> they had seen<WG1492>;


btext:
Saying<WG3004>, Blessed<WG2127> be the King<WG935> that cometh<WG2064> in<WG1722> the name<WG3686> of the Lord<WG2962>: peace<WG1515> in<WG1722> heaven<WG3772>, and<WG2532> glory<WG1391> in<WG1722> the highest<WG5310>.


btext:
And<WG2532> some<WG5100> of the Pharisees<WG5330> from<WG575> among the multitude<WG3793> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Master<WG1320>, rebuke<WG2008> thy<WG4675> disciples<WG3101>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, I tell<WG3004> you<WG5213> that<WG3754>, if<WG1437> these<WG3778> should hold their peace<WG4623>, the stones<WG3037> would immediately cry out<WG2896>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG5613> he was come near<WG1448>, he beheld<WG1492> the city<WG4172>, and wept<WG2799> over<WG1909> it<WG846>,


btext:
Saying<WG3004>, If<WG3754><WG1487> thou hadst known<WG1097>, even<WG2532> thou<WG4771>, at least<WG2534> in<WG1722> this<WG5026> thy<WG4675> day<WG2250>, the things<WG3588> which belong unto<WG4314> thy<WG4675> peace<WG1515>! but<WG1161> now<WG3568> they are hid<WG2928> from<WG575> thine<WG4675> eyes<WG3788>.


btext:
For<WG3754> the days<WG2250> shall come<WG2240> upon<WG1909> thee<WG4571>, that<WG2532> thine<WG4675> enemies<WG2190> shall cast<WG4016> a trench<WG5482> about<WG4016> thee<WG4671>, and<WG2532> compass<WG4033> thee<WG4571> round<WG4033>, and<WG2532> keep<WG4912> thee<WG4571> in<WG4912> on every side<WG3840>,


btext:
And<WG2532> shall lay<WG1474> thee<WG4571> even with the ground<WG1474>, and<WG2532> thy<WG4675> children<WG5043> within<WG1722> thee<WG4671>; and<WG2532> they shall<WG863> not<WG3756> leave<WG863> in<WG1722> thee<WG4671> one stone<WG3037> upon<WG1909> another<WG3037>; because<WG473><WG3739> thou knewest<WG1097> not<WG3756> the time<WG2540> of thy<WG4675> visitation<WG1984>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went<WG1525> into<WG1519> the temple<WG2411>, and began<WG756> to cast out<WG1544> them that sold<WG4453> therein<WG1722><WG846>, and<WG2532> them that bought<WG59>;


btext:
Saying<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, It is written<WG1125>, My<WG3450> house<WG3624> is<WG2076> the house<WG3624> of prayer<WG4335>: but<WG1161> ye<WG5210> have made<WG4160> it<WG846> a den<WG4693> of thieves<WG3027>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he taught<WG2258><WG1321> daily<WG2596><WG2250> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>. But<WG1161> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> and<WG2532> the chief<WG4413> of the people<WG2992> sought<WG2212> to destroy<WG622> him<WG846>,


btext:
And<WG2532> could<WG2147> not<WG3756> find<WG2147> what<WG5101> they might do<WG4160>: for<WG1063> all<WG537> the people<WG2992> were very attentive<WG1582> to hear<WG191> him<WG846>. / were…: or, hanged on him


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, that on<WG1722> one<WG3391> of those<WG1565> days<WG2250>, as he<WG846> taught<WG1321> the people<WG2992> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>, and<WG2532> preached the gospel<WG2097>, the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> came upon<WG2186> him with<WG4862> the elders<WG4245>,


btext:
And<WG2532> spake<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Tell<WG2036> us<WG2254>, by<WG1722> what<WG4169> authority<WG1849> doest thou<WG4160> these things<WG5023>? or<WG2228> who<WG5101> is he<WG2076> that gave<WG1325> thee<WG4671> this<WG5026> authority<WG1849>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> and said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, I<WG2504> will<WG2065> also<WG2504> ask<WG2065> you<WG5209> one<WG1520> thing<WG3056>; and<WG2532> answer<WG2036> me<WG3427>:


btext:
The baptism<WG908> of John<WG2491>, was it<WG2258> from<WG1537> heaven<WG3772>, or<WG2228> of<WG1537> men<WG444>?


btext:
And<WG1161> they reasoned<WG4817> with<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, saying<WG3004><WG3754>, If<WG1437> we shall say<WG2036>, From<WG1537> heaven<WG3772>; he will say<WG2046>, Why<WG1302> then<WG3767> believed ye<WG4100> him<WG846> not<WG3756>?


btext:
But and<WG1161> if<WG1437> we say<WG2036>, Of<WG1537> men<WG444>; all<WG3956> the people<WG2992> will stone<WG2642> us<WG2248>: for<WG1063> they be<WG2076> persuaded<WG3982> that John<WG2491> was<WG1511> a prophet<WG4396>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they answered<WG611>, that they could<WG1492> not<WG3361> tell<WG1492> whence<WG4159> it was.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Neither<WG3761> tell<WG3004> I<WG1473> you<WG5213> by<WG1722> what<WG4169> authority<WG1849> I do<WG4160> these things<WG5023>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> began he<WG756> to speak<WG3004> to<WG4314> the people<WG2992> this<WG5026> parable<WG3850>; A certain<WG5100> man<WG444> planted<WG5452> a vineyard<WG290>, and<WG2532> let<WG1554> it<WG846> forth<WG1554> to husbandmen<WG1092>, and<WG2532> went into a far country<WG589> for a long<WG2425> time<WG5550>.


btext:
And<WG2532> at<WG1722> the season<WG2540> he sent<WG649> a servant<WG1401> to<WG4314> the husbandmen<WG1092>, that<WG2443> they should give<WG1325> him<WG846> of<WG575> the fruit<WG2590> of the vineyard<WG290>: but<WG1161> the husbandmen<WG1092> beat<WG1194> him<WG846>, and sent him away<WG1821> empty<WG2756>.


btext:
And<WG2532> again<WG4369> he sent<WG3992> another<WG2087> servant<WG1401>: and<WG1161> they beat<WG1194> him also<WG2548>, and<WG2532> entreated him shamefully<WG818>, and sent him away<WG1821> empty<WG2756>.


btext:
And<WG2532> again<WG4369> he sent<WG3992> a third<WG5154>: and<WG1161> they wounded<WG5135> him<WG5126> also<WG2532>, and cast him out<WG1544>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said<WG2036> the lord<WG2962> of the vineyard<WG290>, What<WG5101> shall I do<WG4160>? I will send<WG3992> my<WG3450> beloved<WG27> son<WG5207>: it may be<WG2481> they will reverence<WG1788> him when they see<WG1492> him<WG5126>.


btext:
But<WG1161> when the husbandmen<WG1092> saw<WG1492> him<WG846>, they reasoned<WG1260> among<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, saying<WG3004>, This<WG3778> is<WG2076> the heir<WG2818>: come<WG1205>, let us kill<WG615> him<WG846>, that<WG2443> the inheritance<WG2817> may be<WG1096> ours<WG2257>.


btext:
So<WG2532> they cast<WG1544> him<WG846> out of<WG1854> the vineyard<WG290>, and killed<WG615> him. What<WG5101> therefore<WG3767> shall<WG4160> the lord<WG2962> of the vineyard<WG290> do<WG4160> unto them<WG846>?


btext:
He shall come<WG2064> and<WG2532> destroy<WG622> these<WG5128> husbandmen<WG1092>, and<WG2532> shall give<WG1325> the vineyard<WG290> to others<WG243>. And<WG1161> when they heard<WG191> it, they said<WG2036>, God forbid<WG3361><WG1096>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he beheld<WG1689> them<WG846>, and said<WG2036>, What<WG5101> is<WG2076> this<WG5124> then<WG3767> that is written<WG1125>, The stone<WG3037> which<WG3739> the builders<WG3618> rejected<WG593>, the same<WG3778> is become<WG1096> the head<WG2776> of<WG1519> the corner<WG1137>?


btext:
Whosoever<WG3956> shall fall<WG4098> upon<WG1909> that<WG1565> stone<WG3037> shall be broken<WG4917>; but<WG1161> on<WG1909> whomsoever<WG3739><WG302> it shall fall<WG4098>, it will grind<WG3039> him<WG846> to powder<WG3039>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> the same<WG1722><WG846> hour<WG5610> sought<WG2212> to lay<WG1911> hands<WG5495> on<WG1909> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> they feared<WG5399> the people<WG2992>: for<WG1063> they perceived<WG1097> that<WG3754> he had spoken<WG2036> this<WG5026> parable<WG3850> against<WG4314> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they watched<WG3906> him, and sent forth<WG649> spies<WG1455>, which should feign<WG5271><WG1511> themselves<WG1438> just men<WG1342>, that<WG2443> they might take hold<WG1949> of his<WG846> words<WG3056>, that so<WG1519> they might deliver<WG3860> him<WG846> unto the power<WG746> and<WG2532> authority<WG1849> of the governor<WG2232>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1320>, we know<WG1492> that<WG3754> thou sayest<WG3004> and<WG2532> teachest<WG1321> rightly<WG3723><WG2532>, neither<WG3756> acceptest thou<WG2983> the person<WG4383> of any, but<WG235> teachest<WG1321> the way<WG3598> of God<WG2316> truly<WG225><WG1909>: / truly: or, of a truth


btext:
Is it lawful<WG1832> for us<WG2254> to give<WG1325> tribute<WG5411> unto Caesar<WG2541>, or<WG2228> no<WG3756>?


btext:
But<WG1161> he perceived<WG2657> their<WG846> craftiness<WG3834>, and said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> tempt ye<WG3985> me<WG3165>?


btext:
Shew<WG1925> me<WG3427> a penny<WG1220>. Whose<WG5101> image<WG1504> and<WG2532> superscription<WG1923> hath it<WG2192>? They answered<WG611> and<WG1161> said<WG2036>, Caesar's<WG2541>.

And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Render<WG591> therefore<WG5106> unto Caesar<WG2541> the things which be<WG3588> Caesar's<WG2541>, and<WG2532> unto God<WG2316> the things which be<WG3588> God's<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they could<WG2480> not<WG3756> take hold<WG1949> of his<WG846> words<WG4487> before<WG1726> the people<WG2992>: and<WG2532> they marvelled<WG2296> at<WG1909> his<WG846> answer<WG612>, and held their peace<WG4601>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> came<WG4334> to him certain<WG5100> of the Sadducees<WG4523>, which<WG3588> deny<WG483> that there is<WG1511> any<WG3361> resurrection<WG386>; and they asked<WG1905> him<WG846>,


btext:
Saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1320>, Moses<WG3475> wrote<WG1125> unto us<WG2254>, If<WG1437> any man's<WG5100> brother<WG80> die<WG599>, having<WG2192> a wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> he<WG3778> die<WG599> without children<WG815>, that<WG2443> his<WG846> brother<WG80> should take<WG2983> his wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> raise up<WG1817> seed<WG4690> unto his<WG846> brother<WG80>.


btext:
There were<WG2258> therefore<WG3767> seven<WG2033> brethren<WG80>: and<WG2532> the first<WG4413> took<WG2983> a wife<WG1135>, and died<WG599> without children<WG815>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the second<WG1208> took<WG2983> her to wife<WG1135>, and<WG2532> he<WG3778> died<WG599> childless<WG815>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the third<WG5154> took<WG2983> her<WG846>; and<WG1161> in like manner<WG5615> the seven<WG2033> also<WG2532>: and they left<WG2641> no<WG3756> children<WG5043>, and<WG2532> died<WG599>.


btext:
Therefore<WG3767> in<WG1722> the resurrection<WG386> whose<WG5101> wife<WG1135> of them<WG846> is she<WG1096>? for<WG1063> seven<WG2033> had<WG2192> her<WG846> to wife<WG1135>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, The children<WG5207> of this<WG5127> world<WG165> marry<WG1060>, and<WG2532> are given in marriage<WG1548>:


btext:
But<WG1161> they which shall be accounted worthy<WG2661> to obtain<WG5177> that<WG1565> world<WG165>, and<WG2532> the resurrection<WG386> from<WG1537> the dead<WG3498>, neither<WG3777> marry<WG1060>, nor<WG3777> are given in marriage<WG1548>:


btext:
Neither<WG3777><WG1063> can<WG1410> they die<WG599> any more<WG2089>: for<WG1063> they are<WG1526> equal unto the angels<WG2465>; and<WG2532> are<WG1526> the children<WG5207> of God<WG2316>, being<WG5607> the children<WG5207> of the resurrection<WG386>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> that<WG3754> the dead<WG3498> are raised<WG1453>, even<WG2532> Moses<WG3475> shewed<WG3377> at<WG1909> the bush<WG942>, when<WG5613> he calleth<WG3004> the Lord<WG2962> the God<WG2316> of Abraham<WG11>, and<WG2532> the God<WG2316> of Isaac<WG2464>, and<WG2532> the God<WG2316> of Jacob<WG2384>.


btext:
For<WG1161> he is<WG2076> not<WG3756> a God<WG2316> of the dead<WG3498>, but<WG235> of the living<WG2198>: for<WG1063> all<WG3956> live<WG2198> unto him<WG846>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> certain<WG5100> of the scribes<WG1122> answering<WG611> said<WG2036>, Master<WG1320>, thou hast well<WG2573> said<WG2036>.


btext:
And<WG1161> after that<WG3765> they durst<WG5111> not<WG3765> ask<WG1905> him<WG846> any<WG3762> question at all.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, How<WG4459> say<WG3004> they that Christ<WG5547> is<WG1511> David's<WG1138> son<WG5207>?


btext:
And<WG2532> David<WG1138> himself<WG846> saith<WG3004> in<WG1722> the book<WG976> of Psalms<WG5568>, The LORD<WG2962> said<WG2036> unto my<WG3450> Lord<WG2962>, Sit thou<WG2521> on<WG1537> my<WG3450> right hand<WG1188>,


btext:
Till<WG2193><WG302> I make<WG5087> thine<WG4675> enemies<WG2190> thy<WG4675> footstool<WG4228><WG5286>.


btext:
David<WG1138> therefore<WG3767> calleth<WG2564> him<WG846> Lord<WG2962>, how<WG4459> is he<WG2076> then<WG2532> his<WG846> son<WG5207>?


btext:
Then<WG1161> in the audience<WG191> of all<WG3956> the people<WG2992> he said<WG2036> unto his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>,


btext:
Beware<WG4337> of<WG575> the scribes<WG1122>, which<WG3588> desire<WG2309> to walk<WG4043> in<WG1722> long robes<WG4749>, and<WG2532> love<WG5368> greetings<WG783> in<WG1722> the markets<WG58>, and<WG2532> the highest seats<WG4410> in<WG1722> the synagogues<WG4864>, and<WG2532> the chief rooms<WG4411> at<WG1722> feasts<WG1173>;


btext:
Which<WG3739> devour<WG2719> widows'<WG5503> houses<WG3614>, and<WG2532> for a shew<WG4392> make<WG4336> long<WG3117> prayers<WG4336>: the same<WG3778> shall receive<WG2983> greater<WG4055> damnation<WG2917>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he looked up<WG308>, and saw<WG1492> the rich men<WG4145> casting<WG906> their<WG846> gifts<WG1435> into<WG1519> the treasury<WG1049>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he saw<WG1492> also<WG2532> a certain<WG5100> poor<WG3998> widow<WG5503> casting<WG906> in thither<WG1563> two<WG1417> mites<WG3016>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036>, Of a truth<WG230> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, that<WG3754> this<WG3778> poor<WG4434> widow<WG5503> hath cast<WG906> in more than<WG4119> they all<WG3956>:


btext:
For<WG1063> all<WG537> these<WG3778> have of<WG1537> their<WG846> abundance<WG4052> cast<WG906> in unto<WG1519> the offerings<WG1435> of God<WG2316>: but<WG1161> she<WG3778><WG846> of<WG1537> her<WG846> penury<WG5303> hath cast<WG906> in all<WG537> the living<WG979> that<WG3739> she had<WG2192>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as some<WG5100> spake<WG3004> of<WG4012> the temple<WG2411>, how<WG3754> it was adorned<WG2885> with goodly<WG2570> stones<WG3037> and<WG2532> gifts<WG334>, he said<WG2036>,


btext:
As for these things<WG5023> which<WG3739> ye behold<WG2334>, the days<WG2250> will come<WG2064>, in<WG1722> the which<WG3739> there shall<WG863> not<WG3756> be left<WG863> one stone<WG3037> upon<WG1909> another<WG3037>, that<WG3739> shall<WG2647> not<WG3756> be thrown down<WG2647>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Master<WG1320>, but<WG3767> when<WG4219> shall<WG2071> these things<WG5023> be<WG2071>? and<WG2532> what<WG5101> sign<WG4592> will there be when<WG3752> these things<WG5023> shall<WG3195> come to pass<WG1096>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, Take heed<WG991> that ye be<WG4105> not<WG3361> deceived<WG4105>: for<WG1063> many<WG4183> shall come<WG2064> in<WG1909> my<WG3450> name<WG3686>, saying<WG3004><WG3754>, I<WG1473> am<WG1510> Christ; and<WG2532> the time<WG2540> draweth near<WG1448>: go ye<WG4198> not<WG3361> therefore<WG3767> after<WG3694> them<WG846>. / and the time: or, and, The time


btext:
But<WG1161> when<WG3752> ye shall hear<WG191> of wars<WG4171> and<WG2532> commotions<WG181>, be<WG4422> not<WG3361> terrified<WG4422>: for<WG1063> these things<WG5023> must<WG1163> first<WG4412> come to pass<WG1096>; but<WG235> the end<WG5056> is not<WG3756> by and by<WG2112>.


btext:
Then<WG5119> said he<WG3004> unto them<WG846>, Nation<WG1484> shall rise<WG1453> against<WG1909> nation<WG1484>, and<WG2532> kingdom<WG932> against<WG1909> kingdom<WG932>:


btext:
And<WG5037> great<WG3173> earthquakes<WG4578> shall be<WG2071> in<WG2596> divers places<WG5117>, and<WG2532> famines<WG3042>, and<WG2532> pestilences<WG3061>; and<WG5037> fearful sights<WG5400> and<WG2532> great<WG3173> signs<WG4592> shall there be<WG2071> from<WG575> heaven<WG3772>.


btext:
But<WG1161> before<WG4253> all<WG537> these<WG5130>, they shall lay<WG1911> their<WG846> hands<WG5495> on<WG1909> you<WG5209>, and<WG2532> persecute<WG1377> you, delivering<WG3860> you up<WG1519> to the synagogues<WG4864>, and<WG2532> into prisons<WG5438>, being brought<WG71> before<WG1909> kings<WG935> and<WG2532> rulers<WG2232> for<WG1752> my<WG3450> name's<WG3686> sake<WG1752>.


btext:
Settle<WG5087> it therefore<WG3767> in<WG1519> your<WG5216> hearts<WG2588>, not<WG3361> to meditate before<WG4304> what ye shall answer<WG626>:


btext:
For<WG1063> I<WG1473> will give<WG1325> you<WG5213> a mouth<WG4750> and<WG2532> wisdom<WG4678>, which<WG3739> all<WG3956> your<WG5213> adversaries<WG480> shall<WG1410> not<WG3756> be able<WG1410> to gainsay<WG471> nor<WG3761> resist<WG436>.


btext:
And<WG1161> ye shall be betrayed<WG3860> both<WG2532> by<WG5259> parents<WG1118>, and<WG2532> brethren<WG80>, and<WG2532> kinsfolks<WG4773>, and<WG2532> friends<WG5384>; and<WG2532> some of<WG1537> you<WG5216> shall they cause to be put to death<WG2289>.


btext:
And<WG2532> ye shall be<WG2071> hated<WG3404> of<WG5259> all<WG3956> men for<WG1223> my<WG3450> name's sake<WG3686>.


btext:
But<WG2532> there shall not<WG3364> an hair<WG2359> of<WG1537> your<WG5216> head<WG2776> perish<WG622>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when<WG3752> ye shall see<WG1492> Jerusalem<WG2419> compassed<WG2944> with<WG5259> armies<WG4760>, then<WG5119> know<WG1097> that<WG3754> the desolation<WG2050> thereof<WG846> is nigh<WG1448>.


btext:
Then<WG5119> let them<WG5343> which are in<WG1722> Judaea<WG2449> flee<WG5343> to<WG1519> the mountains<WG3735>; and<WG2532> let them<WG1633> which are in<WG1722> the midst<WG3319> of it<WG846> depart out<WG1633>; and<WG2532> let<WG1525> not<WG3361> them that are in<WG1722> the countries<WG5561> enter<WG1525> thereinto<WG1519><WG846>.


btext:
For<WG3754> these<WG3778> be<WG1526> the days<WG2250> of vengeance<WG1557>, that all things<WG3956> which<WG3588> are written<WG1125> may be fulfilled<WG4137>.


btext:
But<WG1161> woe<WG3759> unto<WG1722> them that are with child<WG1064><WG2192>, and<WG2532> to them that give suck<WG2337>, in<WG1722> those<WG1565> days<WG2250>! for<WG1063> there shall be<WG2071> great<WG3173> distress<WG318> in<WG1909> the land<WG1093>, and<WG2532> wrath<WG3709> upon<WG1722> this<WG5129> people<WG2992>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they shall fall<WG4098> by the edge<WG4750> of the sword<WG3162>, and<WG2532> shall be led away captive<WG163> into<WG1519> all<WG3956> nations<WG1484>: and<WG2532> Jerusalem<WG2419> shall be<WG2071> trodden down<WG3961> of<WG5259> the Gentiles<WG1484>, until<WG891> the times<WG2540> of the Gentiles<WG1484> be fulfilled<WG4137>.


btext:
And<WG2532> there shall be<WG2071> signs<WG4592> in<WG1722> the sun<WG2246>, and<WG2532> in the moon<WG4582>, and<WG2532> in the stars<WG798>; and<WG2532> upon<WG1909> the earth<WG1093> distress<WG4928> of nations<WG1484>, with<WG1722> perplexity<WG640>; the sea<WG2281> and<WG2532> the waves<WG4535> roaring<WG2278>;


btext:
Men's<WG444> hearts failing them<WG674> for<WG575> fear<WG5401>, and<WG2532> for looking after<WG4329> those things which are coming on<WG1904> the earth<WG3625>: for<WG1063> the powers<WG1411> of heaven<WG3772> shall be shaken<WG4531>.


btext:
And<WG2532> then<WG5119> shall they see<WG3700> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> coming<WG2064> in<WG1722> a cloud<WG3507> with<WG3326> power<WG1411> and<WG2532> great<WG4183> glory<WG1391>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when these things<WG5130> begin<WG756> to come to pass<WG1096>, then look up<WG352>, and<WG2532> lift up<WG1869> your<WG5216> heads<WG2776>; for<WG1360> your<WG5216> redemption<WG629> draweth nigh<WG1448>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he spake<WG2036> to them<WG846> a parable<WG3850>; Behold<WG1492> the fig tree<WG4808>, and<WG2532> all<WG3956> the trees<WG1186>;


btext:
When<WG3752> they now<WG2235> shoot forth<WG4261>, ye see<WG991> and know<WG1097> of<WG575> your own selves<WG1438> that<WG3754> summer<WG2330> is<WG2076> now<WG2235> nigh at hand<WG1451>.


btext:
So<WG3779> likewise<WG2532> ye<WG5210>, when<WG3752> ye see<WG1492> these things<WG5023> come to pass<WG1096>, know ye<WG1097> that<WG3754> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> is<WG2076> nigh at hand<WG1451>.


btext:
Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, This<WG3778> generation<WG1074> shall<WG3928> not<WG3364> pass away<WG3928><WG302>, till<WG2193> all<WG3956> be fulfilled<WG1096>.


btext:
And<WG1161> take heed<WG4337> to yourselves<WG1438>, lest at any time<WG3379> your<WG5216> hearts<WG2588> be overcharged<WG925> with<WG1722> surfeiting<WG2897>, and<WG2532> drunkenness<WG3178>, and<WG2532> cares<WG3308> of this life<WG982>, and<WG2532> so that<WG1565> day<WG2250> come<WG2186> upon<WG1909> you<WG5209> unawares<WG160>.


btext:
For<WG1063> as<WG5613> a snare<WG3803> shall it come<WG1904> on<WG1909> all<WG3956> them that dwell<WG2521> on<WG1909> the face<WG4383> of the whole<WG3956> earth<WG1093>.


btext:
Watch ye<WG69> therefore<WG3767>, and pray<WG1189> always<WG1722><WG3956><WG2540>, that<WG2443> ye may be accounted worthy<WG2661> to escape<WG1628> all<WG3956> these things<WG5023> that shall<WG3195> come to pass<WG1096>, and<WG2532> to stand<WG2476> before<WG1715> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG1161> in the day time<WG2250> he was<WG2258> teaching<WG1321> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>; and<WG1161> at night<WG3571> he went out<WG1831>, and abode<WG835> in<WG1519> the mount<WG3735> that is called<WG2564> the mount of Olives<WG1636>.


btext:
And<WG2532> all<WG3956> the people<WG2992> came early in the morning<WG3719> to<WG4314> him<WG846> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>, for to hear<WG191> him<WG846>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> the feast<WG1859> of unleavened bread<WG106> drew nigh<WG1448>, which is called<WG3004> the Passover<WG3957>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122> sought<WG2212> how<WG4459> they might kill<WG337> him<WG846>; for<WG1063> they feared<WG5399> the people<WG2992>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> entered<WG1525> Satan<WG4567> into<WG1519> Judas<WG2455> surnamed<WG1941> Iscariot<WG2469>, being<WG5607> of<WG1537> the number<WG706> of the twelve<WG1427>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he went his way<WG565>, and communed with<WG4814> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> captains<WG4755>, how<WG4459> he might betray<WG3860> him<WG846> unto them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they were glad<WG5463>, and<WG2532> covenanted<WG4934> to give<WG1325> him<WG846> money<WG694>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he promised<WG1843>, and<WG2532> sought<WG2212> opportunity<WG2120> to betray<WG3860> him<WG846> unto them<WG846> in the absence<WG817> of the multitude<WG3793>. / in the…: or, without tumult


btext:
Then<WG1161> came<WG2064> the day<WG2250> of unleavened bread<WG106>, when<WG1722><WG3739> the passover<WG3957> must<WG1163> be killed<WG2380>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he sent<WG649> Peter<WG4074> and<WG2532> John<WG2491>, saying<WG2036>, Go<WG4198> and prepare<WG2090> us<WG2254> the passover<WG3957>, that<WG2443> we may eat<WG5315>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Where<WG4226> wilt thou<WG2309> that we prepare<WG2090>?


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Behold<WG2400>, when ye<WG5216> are entered<WG1525> into<WG1519> the city<WG4172>, there shall<WG4876> a man<WG444> meet<WG4876> you<WG5213>, bearing<WG941> a pitcher<WG2765> of water<WG5204>; follow<WG190> him<WG846> into<WG1519> the house<WG3614> where<WG3757> he entereth in<WG1531>.

And<WG2532> ye shall say<WG2046> unto the goodman<WG3617> of the house<WG3614>, The Master<WG1320> saith<WG3004> unto thee<WG4671>, Where<WG4226> is<WG2076> the guestchamber<WG2646>, where<WG3699> I shall eat<WG5315> the passover<WG3957> with<WG3326> my<WG3450> disciples<WG3101>?


btext:
And<WG2548> he shall shew<WG1166> you<WG5213> a large<WG3173> upper room<WG508> furnished<WG4766>: there<WG1563> make ready<WG2090>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they went<WG565>, and found<WG2147> as<WG2531> he had said<WG2046> unto them<WG846>: and<WG2532> they made ready<WG2090> the passover<WG3957>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> the hour<WG5610> was come<WG1096>, he sat down<WG377>, and<WG2532> the twelve<WG1427> apostles<WG652> with<WG4862> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, With desire<WG1939> I have desired<WG1937> to eat<WG5315> this<WG5124> passover<WG3957> with<WG3326> you<WG5216> before<WG4253> I<WG3165> suffer<WG3958>: / With desire…: or, I have heartily desired


btext:
For<WG1063> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, I will<WG5315> not<WG3765> any more<WG3364> eat<WG5315> thereof<WG846><WG1537>, until<WG2193><WG3755> it be fulfilled<WG4137> in<WG1722> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG1209> the cup<WG4221>, and gave thanks<WG2168>, and said<WG2036>, Take<WG2983> this<WG5124>, and<WG2532> divide<WG1266> it among yourselves<WG1438>:


btext:
For<WG1063> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213><WG3754>, I will<WG4095> not<WG3364> drink<WG4095> of<WG575> the fruit<WG1081> of the vine<WG288>, until<WG2193><WG3755> the kingdom<WG932> of God<WG2316> shall come<WG2064>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG2983> bread<WG740>, and gave thanks<WG2168>, and brake<WG2806> it, and<WG2532> gave<WG1325> unto them<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, This<WG5124> is<WG2076> my<WG3450> body<WG4983> which<WG3588> is given<WG1325> for<WG5228> you<WG5216>: this<WG5124> do<WG4160> in remembrance<WG364> of<WG1519> me<WG1699>.


btext:
Likewise<WG5615> also<WG2532> the cup<WG4221> after<WG3326> supper<WG1172>, saying<WG3004>, This<WG5124> cup<WG4221> is the new<WG2537> testament<WG1242> in<WG1722> my<WG3450> blood<WG129>, which<WG3588> is shed<WG1632> for<WG5228> you<WG5216>.


btext:
But<WG4133>, behold<WG2400>, the hand<WG5495> of him that betrayeth<WG3860> me<WG3165> is with<WG3326> me<WG1700> on<WG1909> the table<WG5132>.


btext:
And<WG2532> truly<WG3303> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> goeth<WG4198>, as<WG2596> it was determined<WG3724>: but<WG4133> woe<WG3759> unto that<WG1565> man<WG444> by<WG1223> whom<WG3739> he is betrayed<WG3860>!


btext:
And<WG2532> they<WG846> began<WG756> to enquire<WG4802> among<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>, which<WG5101><WG686> of<WG1537> them<WG846> it was<WG1498> that should<WG3195> do<WG4238> this thing<WG5124>.


btext:
And<WG1161> there was<WG1096> also<WG2532> a strife<WG5379> among<WG1722> them<WG846>, which<WG5101> of them<WG846> should be accounted<WG1380><WG1511> the greatest<WG3187>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, The kings<WG935> of the Gentiles<WG1484> exercise lordship over<WG2961> them<WG846>; and<WG2532> they that exercise authority upon<WG1850> them<WG846> are called<WG2564> benefactors<WG2110>.


btext:
But<WG1161> ye<WG5210> shall not<WG3756> be so<WG3779>: but<WG235> he that is greatest<WG3187> among<WG1722> you<WG5213>, let him be<WG1096> as<WG5613> the younger<WG3501>; and<WG2532> he that is chief<WG2233>, as<WG5613> he that doth serve<WG1247>.


btext:
For<WG1063> whether<WG5101> is greater<WG3187>, he that sitteth at meat<WG345>, or<WG2228> he that serveth<WG1247>? is not<WG3780> he that sitteth at meat<WG345>? but<WG1161> I<WG1473> am<WG1510> among<WG1722><WG3319> you<WG5216> as<WG5613> he that serveth<WG1247>.


btext:
<WG1161> Ye<WG5210> are<WG2075> they which have continued<WG1265> with<WG3326> me<WG1700> in<WG1722> my<WG3450> temptations<WG3986>.


btext:
And I<WG2504> appoint<WG1303> unto you<WG5213> a kingdom<WG932>, as<WG2531> my<WG3450> Father<WG3962> hath appointed<WG1303> unto me<WG3427>;


btext:
That<WG2443> ye may eat<WG2068> and<WG2532> drink<WG4095> at<WG1909> my<WG3450> table<WG5132> in<WG1722> my<WG3450> kingdom<WG932>, and<WG2532> sit<WG2523> on<WG1909> thrones<WG2362> judging<WG2919> the twelve<WG1427> tribes<WG5443> of Israel<WG2474>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the Lord<WG2962> said<WG2036>, Simon<WG4613>, Simon<WG4613>, behold<WG2400>, Satan<WG4567> hath desired<WG1809> to have you<WG5209>, that he may sift<WG4617> you as<WG5613> wheat<WG4621>:


btext:
But<WG1161> I<WG1473> have prayed<WG1189> for<WG4012> thee<WG4675>, that<WG3363> thy<WG4675> faith<WG4102> fail<WG1587> not<WG3363>: and<WG2532> when<WG4218> thou<WG4771> art converted<WG1994>, strengthen<WG4741> thy<WG4675> brethren<WG80>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962>, I am<WG1510> ready<WG2092> to go<WG4198> with<WG3326> thee<WG4675>, both<WG2532> into<WG1519> prison<WG5438>, and<WG2532> to<WG1519> death<WG2288>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036>, I tell<WG3004> thee<WG4671>, Peter<WG4074>, the cock<WG220> shall<WG5455> not<WG3364> crow<WG5455> this day<WG4594>, before that<WG4250> thou shalt<WG2228> thrice<WG5151> deny<WG533> that thou<WG3361> knowest<WG1492> me<WG3165>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, When<WG3753> I sent<WG649> you<WG5209> without<WG817> purse<WG905>, and<WG2532> scrip<WG4082>, and<WG2532> shoes<WG5266><WG3361>, lacked ye<WG5302> any thing<WG5100>? And<WG1161> they said<WG2036>, Nothing<WG3762>.


btext:
Then<WG3767> said he<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, But<WG235> now<WG3568>, he that hath<WG2192> a purse<WG905>, let him take<WG142> it, and<WG2532> likewise<WG3668> his scrip<WG4082>: and<WG2532> he that hath<WG2192> no<WG3361> sword<WG3162>, let him sell<WG4453> his<WG846> garment<WG2440>, and<WG2532> buy<WG59> one.


btext:
For<WG1063> I say<WG3004> unto you<WG5213>, that<WG3754> this<WG5124> that is written<WG1125> must<WG1163> yet<WG2089> be accomplished<WG5055> in<WG1722> me<WG1698>, And<WG2532> he was reckoned<WG3049> among<WG3326> the transgressors<WG459>: for<WG2532><WG1063> the things concerning<WG4012> me<WG1700> have<WG2192> an end<WG5056>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they said<WG2036>, Lord<WG2962>, behold<WG2400>, here<WG5602> are two<WG1417> swords<WG3162>. And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, It is<WG2076> enough<WG2425>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he came out<WG1831>, and went<WG4198>, as<WG2596> he was wont<WG1485>, to<WG1519> the mount<WG3735> of Olives<WG1636>; and<WG1161> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101> also<WG2532> followed<WG190> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when he was<WG1096> at<WG1909> the place<WG5117>, he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Pray<WG4336> that ye enter<WG1525> not<WG3361> into<WG1519> temptation<WG3986>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he<WG846> was withdrawn<WG645> from<WG575> them<WG846> about<WG5616> a stone's<WG3037> cast<WG1000>, and<WG2532> kneeled down<WG5087><WG1119>, and prayed<WG4336>,


btext:
Saying<WG3004>, Father<WG3962>, if<WG1487> thou be willing<WG1014>, remove<WG3911><WG3911> this<WG5124> cup<WG4221> from<WG575> me<WG1700>: nevertheless<WG4133> not<WG3361> my<WG3450> will<WG2307>, but<WG235> thine<WG4674>, be done<WG1096>. / willing, remove: Gr. willing to remove


btext:
And<WG1161> there appeared<WG3700> an angel<WG32> unto him<WG846> from<WG575> heaven<WG3772>, strengthening<WG1765> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> being<WG1096> in<WG1722> an agony<WG74> he prayed<WG4336> more earnestly<WG1617>: and<WG1161> his<WG846> sweat<WG2402> was<WG1096> as it were<WG5616> great drops<WG2361> of blood<WG129> falling down<WG2597> to<WG1909> the ground<WG1093>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when he rose up<WG450> from<WG575> prayer<WG4335>, and was come<WG2064> to<WG4314> his<WG846> disciples<WG3101>, he found<WG2147> them<WG846> sleeping<WG2837> for<WG575> sorrow<WG3077>,


btext:
And<WG2532> said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> sleep ye<WG2518>? rise<WG450> and pray<WG4336>, lest<WG3363> ye enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> temptation<WG3986>.


btext:
And<WG1161> while he<WG846> yet<WG2089> spake<WG2980>, behold<WG2400> a multitude<WG3793>, and<WG2532> he that was called<WG3004> Judas<WG2455>, one<WG1520> of the twelve<WG1427>, went before<WG4281> them<WG846>, and<WG2532> drew near<WG1448> unto Jesus<WG2424> to kiss<WG5368> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Judas<WG2455>, betrayest thou<WG3860> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> with a kiss<WG5370>?


btext:
When<WG1161> they which were about<WG4012> him<WG846> saw<WG1492> what would follow<WG2071>, they said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Lord<WG2962><WG1487>, shall we smite<WG3960> with<WG1722> the sword<WG3162>?


btext:
And<WG2532> one<WG1520><WG5100> of<WG1537> them<WG846> smote<WG3960> the servant<WG1401> of the high priest<WG749>, and<WG2532> cut off<WG851> his<WG846> right<WG1188> ear<WG3775>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> answered<WG611> and said<WG2036>, Suffer ye<WG1439> thus<WG5127> far<WG2193>. And<WG2532> he touched<WG680> his<WG846> ear<WG5621>, and healed<WG2390> him<WG846>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> the chief priests<WG749>, and<WG2532> captains<WG4755> of the temple<WG2411>, and<WG2532> the elders<WG4245>, which were come<WG3854> to<WG1909> him<WG846>, Be ye come out<WG1831>, as<WG5613> against<WG1909> a thief<WG3027>, with<WG3326> swords<WG3162> and<WG2532> staves<WG3586>?


btext:
When<WG5607> I<WG3450> was<WG5607> daily<WG2250><WG2596> with<WG3326> you<WG5216> in<WG1722> the temple<WG2411>, ye stretched forth<WG1614> no<WG3756> hands<WG5495> against<WG1909> me<WG1691>: but<WG235> this<WG3778> is<WG2076> your<WG5216> hour<WG5610>, and<WG2532> the power<WG1849> of darkness<WG4655>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> took they<WG4815> him<WG846>, and led<WG71> him, and<WG2532> brought<WG1521> him<WG846> into<WG1519> the high priest's<WG749> house<WG3624>. And<WG1161> Peter<WG4074> followed<WG190> afar off<WG3113>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when they<WG846> had kindled<WG681> a fire<WG4442> in<WG1722> the midst<WG3319> of the hall<WG833>, and<WG2532> were set down together<WG4776>, Peter<WG4074> sat down<WG2521> among<WG3319><WG1722> them<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> a certain<WG5100> maid<WG3814> beheld<WG1492> him<WG846> as he sat<WG2521> by<WG4314> the fire<WG5457>, and<WG2532> earnestly looked<WG816> upon him<WG846>, and said<WG2036>, This man<WG3778> was<WG2258> also<WG2532> with<WG4862> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he denied<WG720> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Woman<WG1135>, I know<WG1492> him<WG846> not<WG3756>.


btext:
And<WG2532> after<WG3326> a little while<WG1024> another<WG2087> saw<WG1492> him<WG846>, and said<WG5346>, Thou<WG4771> art<WG1488> also<WG2532> of<WG1537> them<WG846>. And<WG1161> Peter<WG4074> said<WG2036>, Man<WG444>, I am<WG1510> not<WG3756>.


btext:
And<WG2532> about<WG5616> the space<WG1339> of one<WG3391> hour<WG5610> after another<WG243><WG5100> confidently affirmed<WG1340>, saying<WG3004>, Of<WG1909> a truth<WG225> this<WG3778> fellow also<WG2532> was<WG2258> with<WG3326> him<WG846>: for<WG1063><WG2532> he is<WG2076> a Galilaean<WG1057>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Peter<WG4074> said<WG2036>, Man<WG444>, I know<WG1492> not<WG3756> what<WG3739> thou sayest<WG3004>. And<WG2532> immediately<WG3916>, while he<WG846> yet<WG2089> spake<WG2980>, the cock<WG220> crew<WG5455>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the Lord<WG2962> turned<WG4762>, and looked upon<WG1689> Peter<WG4074>. And<WG2532> Peter<WG4074> remembered<WG5279> the word<WG3056> of the Lord<WG2962>, how<WG5613> he had said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Before<WG3754><WG4250> the cock<WG220> crow<WG5455>, thou shalt deny<WG533> me<WG3165> thrice<WG5151>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the men<WG435> that held<WG4912> Jesus<WG2424> mocked<WG1702> him<WG846>, and smote<WG1194> him.


btext:
And<WG2532> when they had blindfolded<WG4028> him<WG846>, they struck<WG5180> him<WG846> on the face<WG4383>, and<WG2532> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Prophesy<WG4395>, who<WG5101> is it<WG2076> that smote<WG3817> thee<WG4571>?


btext:
And<WG2532> many<WG4183> other things<WG2087> blasphemously<WG987> spake they<WG3004> against<WG1519> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as soon as<WG5613> it was<WG1096> day<WG2250>, the elders<WG4244> of the people<WG2992> and<WG5037> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the scribes<WG1122> came together<WG4863>, and<WG2532> led<WG321> him<WG846> into<WG1519> their<WG1438> council<WG4892>, saying<WG3004>,


btext:
<WG1487> Art<WG1488> thou<WG4771> the Christ<WG5547>? tell<WG2036> us<WG2254>. And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, If<WG1437> I tell<WG2036> you<WG5213>, ye will<WG4100> not<WG3364> believe<WG4100>:


btext:
And<WG1161> if<WG1437> I also<WG2532> ask<WG2065> you, ye will<WG611> not<WG3364> answer<WG611> me<WG3427>, nor<WG2228> let me go<WG630>.


btext:
Hereafter<WG3568><WG575> shall<WG2071> the Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> sit<WG2521> on<WG1537> the right hand<WG1188> of the power<WG1411> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said<WG5346> they all<WG3956>, Art<WG1488> thou<WG4771> then<WG3767> the Son<WG5207> of God<WG2316>? And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Ye<WG5210> say<WG3004> that<WG3754> I<WG1473> am<WG1510>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they said<WG2036>, What<WG5101> need<WG2192> we<WG5532> any further<WG2089> witness<WG3141>? for<WG1063> we ourselves<WG846> have heard<WG191> of<WG575> his own<WG846> mouth<WG4750>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the whole<WG537> multitude<WG4128> of them<WG846> arose<WG450>, and led<WG71> him<WG846> unto<WG1909> Pilate<WG4091>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they began<WG756> to accuse<WG2723> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, We found<WG2147> this<WG5126> fellow perverting<WG1294> the nation<WG1484>, and<WG2532> forbidding<WG2967> to give<WG1325> tribute<WG5411> to Caesar<WG2541>, saying<WG3004> that he himself<WG1438> is<WG1511> Christ<WG5547> a King<WG935>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> asked<WG1905> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Art<WG1488> thou<WG4771> the King<WG935> of the Jews<WG2453>? And<WG1161> he answered<WG611> him<WG846> and said<WG5346>, Thou<WG4771> sayest<WG3004> it.


btext:
Then<WG1161> said<WG2036> Pilate<WG4091> to<WG4314> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> to the people<WG3793>, I find<WG2147> no<WG3762> fault<WG158> in<WG1722> this<WG5129> man<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they were the more fierce<WG2001>, saying<WG3004><WG3754>, He stirreth up<WG383> the people<WG2992>, teaching<WG1321> throughout<WG2596> all<WG3650> Jewry<WG2449>, beginning<WG756> from<WG575> Galilee<WG1056> to<WG2193> this place<WG5602>.


btext:
When<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> heard<WG191> of Galilee<WG1056>, he asked<WG1905> whether<WG1487> the man<WG444> were<WG2076> a Galilaean<WG1057>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as soon as he knew<WG1921> that<WG3754> he belonged<WG2076> unto<WG1537> Herod's<WG2264> jurisdiction<WG1849>, he sent<WG375> him<WG846> to<WG4314> Herod<WG2264>, who<WG5607> himself<WG846> also<WG2532> was<WG5607> at<WG1722> Jerusalem<WG2414> at<WG1722> that<WG5025> time<WG2250>.


btext:
And<WG1161> when Herod<WG2264> saw<WG1492> Jesus<WG2424>, he was exceeding<WG3029> glad<WG5463>: for<WG1063> he was<WG2258> desirous<WG2309> to see<WG1492> him<WG846> of<WG1537> a long<WG2425> season, because<WG1223> he had heard<WG191> many things<WG4183> of<WG4012> him<WG846>; and<WG2532> he hoped<WG1679> to have seen<WG1492> some<WG5100> miracle<WG4592> done<WG1096> by<WG5259> him<WG846>.


btext:
Then<WG1161> he questioned<WG1905> with him<WG846> in<WG1722> many<WG2425> words<WG3056>; but<WG1161> he<WG846> answered<WG611> him<WG846> nothing<WG3762>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> scribes<WG1122> stood<WG2476> and vehemently<WG2159> accused<WG2723> him<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Herod<WG2264> with<WG4862> his<WG846> men of war<WG4753> set<WG1848> him<WG846> at nought<WG1848>, and<WG2532> mocked<WG1702> him, and arrayed<WG4016> him<WG846> in a gorgeous<WG2986> robe<WG2066>, and sent<WG375> him<WG846> again<WG375> to Pilate<WG4091>.


btext:
And<WG1161><WG3739> the same<WG1722><WG846> day<WG2250> Pilate<WG4091> and<WG2532> Herod<WG2264> were made<WG1096> friends<WG5384> together<WG3326><WG5037><WG240>: for<WG1063> before<WG4391> they were<WG5607> at<WG1722> enmity<WG2189> between<WG4314> themselves<WG1438>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091>, when he had called together<WG4779> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> the rulers<WG758> and<WG2532> the people<WG2992>,


btext:
Said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Ye have brought<WG4374> this<WG5129> man<WG444> unto me<WG3427>, as<WG5613> one that perverteth<WG654> the people<WG2992>: and<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, I<WG1473>, having examined<WG350> him before<WG1799> you<WG5216>, have found<WG2147> no<WG3762> fault<WG158> in<WG1722> this<WG5126> man<WG444> touching those things<WG3739> whereof<WG2596> ye accuse<WG2723> him<WG846>:


btext:
No<WG235>, nor yet<WG3761> Herod<WG2264>: for<WG1063> I sent<WG375> you<WG5209> to<WG4314> him<WG846>; and<WG2532>, lo<WG2400>, nothing<WG3762> worthy<WG514> of death<WG2288> is<WG2076> done<WG4238> unto him<WG846>.


btext:
(For<WG1161> of necessity<WG318> he must<WG2192> release<WG630> one<WG1520> unto them<WG846> at<WG2596> the feast<WG1859>.)


btext:
And<WG1161> they cried out<WG349> all at once<WG3826>, saying<WG3004>, Away with<WG142> this<WG5126> man, and<WG1161> release<WG630> unto us<WG2254> Barabbas<WG912>:


btext:
(Who<WG3748> for<WG2258><WG1223> a certain<WG5100> sedition<WG4714> made<WG1096> in<WG1722> the city<WG4172>, and<WG2532> for murder<WG5408>, was cast<WG906> into<WG1519> prison<WG5438>.)


btext:
Pilate<WG4091> therefore<WG3767>, willing<WG2309> to release<WG630> Jesus<WG2424>, spake<WG4377> again<WG3825> to them<WG4377>.


btext:
And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846> the third time<WG5154>, Why<WG1063>, what<WG5101> evil<WG2556> hath<WG4160> he<WG3778> done<WG4160>? I have found<WG2147> no<WG3762> cause<WG158> of death<WG2288> in<WG1722> him<WG846>: I will<WG3811> therefore<WG3767> chastise<WG3811> him<WG846>, and let him go<WG630>.


btext:
And<WG1161> they were instant<WG1945> with loud<WG3173> voices<WG5456>, requiring<WG154> that he<WG846> might be crucified<WG4717>. And<WG2532> the voices<WG5456> of them<WG846> and<WG2532> of the chief priests<WG749> prevailed<WG2729>.


btext:
And<WG1161> Pilate<WG4091> gave sentence<WG1948> that it should be as<WG1096> they<WG846> required<WG155>. / gave…: or, assented


btext:
And<WG1161> he released<WG630> unto them<WG846> him that for<WG1223> sedition<WG4714> and<WG2532> murder<WG5408> was cast<WG906> into<WG1519> prison<WG5438>, whom<WG3739> they had desired<WG154>; but<WG1161> he delivered<WG3860> Jesus<WG2424> to their<WG846> will<WG2307>.


btext:
And<WG2532> as<WG5613> they led<WG520> him<WG846> away<WG520>, they laid hold upon<WG1949> one<WG5100> Simon<WG4613>, a Cyrenian<WG2956>, coming<WG2064> out of<WG575> the country<WG68>, and on<WG2007> him<WG846> they laid<WG2007> the cross<WG4716>, that he might bear<WG5342> it after<WG3693> Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG1161> there followed<WG190> him<WG846> a great<WG4183> company<WG4128> of people<WG2992>, and<WG2532> of women<WG1135>, which<WG3739> also<WG2532> bewailed<WG2875> and<WG2532> lamented<WG2354> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> Jesus<WG2424> turning<WG4762> unto<WG4314> them<WG846> said<WG2036>, Daughters<WG2364> of Jerusalem<WG2419>, weep<WG2799> not<WG3361> for<WG1909> me<WG1691>, but<WG4133> weep<WG2799> for<WG1909> yourselves<WG1438>, and<WG2532> for<WG1909> your<WG5216> children<WG5043>.


btext:
For<WG3754>, behold<WG2400>, the days<WG2250> are coming<WG2064>, in<WG1722> the which<WG3739> they shall say<WG2046>, Blessed<WG3107> are the barren<WG4723>, and<WG2532> the wombs<WG2836> that<WG3739> never<WG3756> bare<WG1080>, and<WG2532> the paps<WG3149> which<WG3739> never<WG3756> gave suck<WG2337>.


btext:
Then<WG5119> shall they begin<WG756> to say<WG3004> to the mountains<WG3735>, Fall<WG4098> on<WG1909> us<WG2248>; and<WG2532> to the hills<WG1015>, Cover<WG2572> us<WG2248>.


btext:
For<WG3754> if<WG1487> they do<WG4160> these things<WG5023> in<WG1722> a green<WG5200> tree<WG3586>, what<WG5101> shall be done<WG1096> in<WG1722> the dry<WG3584>?


btext:
And<WG1161> there were also<WG2532> two<WG1417> other<WG2087>, malefactors<WG2557>, led<WG71> with<WG4862> him<WG846> to be put to death<WG337>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when<WG3753> they were come<WG565> to<WG1909> the place<WG5117>, which<WG3588> is called<WG2564> Calvary<WG2898>, there<WG1563> they crucified<WG4717> him<WG846>, and<WG2532> the malefactors<WG2557>, one<WG3739><WG3303> on<WG1537> the right hand<WG1188>, and<WG1161> the other<WG3739> on<WG1537> the left<WG710>. / Calvary: or, The place of a skull


btext:
Then<WG1161> said<WG3004> Jesus<WG2424>, Father<WG3962>, forgive<WG863> them<WG846>; for<WG1063> they know<WG1492> not<WG3756> what<WG5101> they do<WG4160>. And<WG1161> they parted<WG1266> his<WG846> raiment<WG2440>, and cast<WG906> lots<WG2819>.


btext:
And<WG2532> the people<WG2992> stood<WG2476> beholding<WG2334>. And<WG1161> the rulers<WG758> also<WG2532> with<WG4862> them<WG846> derided<WG1592> him, saying<WG3004>, He saved<WG4982> others<WG243>; let him save<WG4982> himself<WG1438>, if<WG1487> he<WG3778> be<WG2076> Christ<WG5547>, the chosen<WG1588> of God<WG2316>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the soldiers<WG4757> also<WG2532> mocked<WG1702> him<WG846>, coming<WG4334> to him, and<WG2532> offering<WG4374> him<WG846> vinegar<WG3690>,


btext:
And<WG2532> saying<WG3004>, If<WG1487> thou<WG4771> be<WG1488> the king<WG935> of the Jews<WG2453>, save<WG4982> thyself<WG4572>.


btext:
And<WG1161> a superscription<WG1923> also<WG2532> was<WG2258> written<WG1125> over<WG1909> him<WG846> in letters<WG1121> of Greek<WG1673>, and<WG2532> Latin<WG4513>, and<WG2532> Hebrew<WG1444>, THIS<WG3778> IS<WG2076> THE KING<WG935> OF THE JEWS<WG2453>.


btext:
And<WG1161> one<WG1520> of the malefactors<WG2557> which were hanged<WG2910> railed<WG987> on him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, If<WG1487> thou<WG4771> be<WG1488> Christ<WG5547>, save<WG4982> thyself<WG4572> and<WG2532> us<WG2248>.


btext:
But<WG1161> the other<WG2087> answering<WG611> rebuked<WG2008> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Dost<WG5399> not<WG3761> thou<WG4771> fear<WG5399> God<WG2316>, seeing<WG3754> thou art<WG1488> in<WG1722> the same<WG846> condemnation<WG2917>?


btext:
And<WG2532> we<WG2249> indeed<WG3303> justly<WG1346>; for<WG1063> we receive<WG618> the due reward<WG514> of our<WG3739> deeds<WG4238>: but<WG1161> this man<WG3778> hath done<WG4238> nothing<WG3762> amiss<WG824>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG3004> unto Jesus<WG2424>, Lord<WG2962>, remember<WG3415> me<WG3450> when<WG3752> thou comest<WG2064> into<WG1722> thy<WG4675> kingdom<WG932>.


btext:
And<WG2532> Jesus<WG2424> said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Verily<WG281> I say<WG3004> unto thee<WG4671>, To day<WG4594> shalt thou be<WG2071> with<WG3326> me<WG1700> in<WG1722> paradise<WG3857>.


btext:
And<WG1161> it was<WG2258> about<WG5616> the sixth<WG1623> hour<WG5610>, and<WG2532> there was<WG1096> a darkness<WG4655> over<WG1909> all<WG3650> the earth<WG1093> until<WG2193> the ninth<WG1766> hour<WG5610>. / earth: or, land


btext:
And<WG2532> the sun<WG2246> was darkened<WG4654>, and<WG2532> the veil<WG2665> of the temple<WG3485> was rent<WG4977> in the midst<WG3319>.


btext:
And<WG2532> when Jesus<WG2424> had cried<WG5455> with a loud<WG3173> voice<WG5456>, he said<WG2036>, Father<WG3962>, into<WG1519> thy<WG4675> hands<WG5495> I commend<WG3908> my<WG3450> spirit<WG4151>: and<WG2532> having said<WG2036> thus<WG5023>, he gave up the ghost<WG1606>.


btext:
Now<WG1161> when the centurion<WG1543> saw<WG1492> what was done<WG1096>, he glorified<WG1392> God<WG2316>, saying<WG3004>, Certainly<WG3689> this<WG3778> was<WG2258> a righteous<WG1342> man<WG444>.


btext:
And<WG2532> all<WG3956> the people<WG3793> that came together<WG4836> to<WG1909> that<WG5026> sight<WG2335>, beholding<WG2334> the things which were done<WG1096>, smote<WG5180> their<WG1438> breasts<WG4738>, and returned<WG5290>.


btext:
And<WG1161> all<WG3956> his<WG846> acquaintance<WG1110>, and<WG2532> the women<WG1135> that followed<WG4870> him<WG846> from<WG575> Galilee<WG1056>, stood<WG2476> afar off<WG3113>, beholding<WG3708> these things<WG5023>.

And<WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, there was a man<WG435> named<WG3686> Joseph<WG2501>, a counsellor<WG1010>; and he was a good<WG5225><WG18> man<WG435>, and<WG2532> a just<WG1342>:

btext:
This<WG3778> man went<WG4334> unto Pilate<WG4091>, and begged<WG154> the body<WG4983> of Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG2532> he took<WG2507> it<WG846> down<WG2507>, and wrapped<WG1794> it<WG846> in linen<WG4616>, and<WG2532> laid<WG5087> it<WG846> in<WG1722> a sepulchre<WG3418> that was hewn in stone<WG2991>, wherein<WG3757> never<WG3756> man<WG3764> before<WG3762> was<WG2258> laid<WG2749>.

And<WG2532> that day<WG2250> was<WG2258> the preparation<WG3904>, and<WG2532> the sabbath<WG4521> drew on<WG2020>.


btext:
And<WG1161> the women<WG1135> also<WG2532>, which<WG3748> came<WG2258><WG4905> with him<WG846> from<WG1537> Galilee<WG1056>, followed after<WG2628>, and beheld<WG2300> the sepulchre<WG3419>, and<WG2532> how<WG5613> his<WG846> body<WG4983> was laid<WG5087>.


btext:
And they returned<WG5290>, and<WG1161> prepared<WG2090> spices<WG759> and<WG2532> ointments<WG3464>; and<WG2532> rested<WG2270><WG3303> the sabbath day<WG4521> according<WG2596> to the commandment<WG1785>.

Now<WG1161> upon the first<WG3391> day of the week<WG4521>, very early in the morning<WG3722><WG901>, they came<WG2064> unto<WG1909> the sepulchre<WG3418>, bringing<WG5342> the spices<WG759> which<WG3739> they had prepared<WG2090>, and<WG2532> certain<WG5100> others with<WG4862> them<WG846>.

And<WG2532> they entered in<WG1525>, and found<WG2147> not<WG3756> the body<WG4983> of the Lord<WG2962> Jesus<WG2424>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, as<WG1722> they<WG846> were much perplexed<WG1280> thereabout<WG4012><WG5127><WG2532>, behold<WG2400>, two<WG1417> men<WG435> stood by<WG2186> them<WG846> in<WG1722> shining<WG797> garments<WG2067>:

And<WG1161> as<WG1096> they<WG846> were<WG1096> afraid<WG1719>, and<WG2532> bowed down<WG2827> their faces<WG4383> to<WG1519> the earth<WG1093>, they said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, Why<WG5101> seek ye<WG2212> the living<WG2198> among<WG3326> the dead<WG3498>? / the living: or, him that liveth

Saying<WG3004><WG3754>, The Son<WG5207> of man<WG444> must<WG1163> be delivered<WG3860> into<WG1519> the hands<WG5495> of sinful<WG268> men<WG444>, and<WG2532> be crucified<WG4717>, and<WG2532> the third<WG5154> day<WG2250> rise again<WG450>.


btext:
And<WG2532> returned<WG5290> from<WG575> the sepulchre<WG3419>, and told<WG518> all<WG3956> these things<WG5023> unto the eleven<WG1733>, and<WG2532> to all<WG3956> the rest<WG3062>.

And<WG1161> he said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, What<WG5101> manner of communications<WG3056> are these<WG3778> that<WG3739> ye have<WG474> one to<WG4314> another<WG240>, as ye walk<WG4043>, and<WG2532> are<WG2075> sad<WG4659>?


btext:
And<WG1161> the one of them<WG1520>, whose<WG3739> name<WG3686> was Cleopas<WG2810>, answering<WG611> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> him<WG846>, Art thou<WG4771> only<WG3441> a stranger<WG3939> in<WG1722> Jerusalem<WG2419>, and<WG2532> hast<WG1097> not<WG3756> known<WG1097> the things which are come to pass<WG1096> there<WG1722><WG846> in<WG1722> these<WG5025> days<WG2250>?


btext:
And<WG2532> he said<WG2036> unto them<WG846>, What things<WG4169>? And<WG1161> they said<WG2036> unto him<WG846>, Concerning<WG4012> Jesus<WG2424> of Nazareth<WG3480>, which<WG3739> was<WG1096> a prophet<WG4396> mighty<WG1415> in<WG1722><WG435> deed<WG2041> and<WG2532> word<WG3056> before<WG1726> God<WG2316> and<WG2532> all<WG3956> the people<WG2992>:


btext:
And how<WG3704><WG5037> the chief priests<WG749> and<WG2532> our<WG2257> rulers<WG758> delivered<WG3860> him<WG846> to<WG1519> be condemned<WG2917> to death<WG2288>, and<WG2532> have crucified<WG4717> him<WG846>.


btext:
But<WG1161> we<WG2249> trusted<WG1679> that<WG3754> it had been<WG2076> he<WG846> which should<WG3195> have redeemed<WG3084> Israel<WG2474>: and<WG235> beside<WG1065><WG4862> all<WG3956> this<WG5125>, to day<WG4594> is<WG71> the<WG5026> third<WG5154> day<WG2250> since<WG575><WG3739> these things<WG5023> were done<WG1096>.


btext:
Yea<WG235>, and certain<WG5100> women<WG1135> also<WG2532> of<WG1537> our company<WG2257> made<WG1839> us<WG2248> astonished<WG1839>, which were<WG1096> early<WG3721> at<WG1909> the sepulchre<WG3419>;


btext:
And<WG2532> when they found<WG2147> not<WG3361> his<WG846> body<WG4983>, they came<WG2064>, saying<WG3004>, that they had<WG3708> also<WG2532> seen<WG3708> a vision<WG3701> of angels<WG32>, which<WG3739> said<WG3004> that he<WG846> was alive<WG2198>.


btext:
And<WG2532> certain of them<WG5100> which were with<WG4862> us<WG2254> went<WG565> to<WG1909> the sepulchre<WG3419>, and<WG2532> found<WG2147> it even<WG2532> so<WG3779> as<WG2531> the women<WG1135> had said<WG2036>: but<WG1161> him<WG846> they saw<WG1492> not<WG3756>.


btext:
Then<WG2532> he<WG846> said<WG2036> unto<WG4314> them<WG846>, O<WG5599> fools<WG453>, and<WG2532> slow<WG1021> of heart<WG2588> to believe<WG4100><WG1909> all<WG3956> that<WG3739> the prophets<WG4396> have spoken<WG2980>:


btext:
Ought<WG1163> not<WG3780> Christ<WG5547> to have suffered<WG3958> these things<WG5023>, and<WG2532> to enter<WG1525> into<WG1519> his<WG846> glory<WG1391>?


btext:
And<WG2532> beginning<WG756> at<WG575> Moses<WG3475> and<WG2532><WG575> all<WG3956> the prophets<WG4396>, he expounded<WG1329> unto them<WG846> in<WG1722> all<WG3956> the scriptures<WG1124> the things concerning<WG4012> himself<WG1438>.


btext:
And<WG2532> they drew nigh<WG1448> unto<WG1519> the village<WG2968>, whither<WG3757> they went<WG4198>: and<WG2532> he<WG846> made as though<WG4364> he would have gone<WG4198> further<WG4208>.


btext:
But<WG2532> they constrained<WG3849> him<WG846>, saying<WG3004>, Abide<WG3306> with<WG3326> us<WG2257>: for<WG3754> it is<WG2076> toward<WG4314> evening<WG2073>, and<WG2532> the day<WG2250> is far spent<WG2827>. And<WG2532> he went in<WG1525> to tarry<WG3306> with<WG4862> them<WG846>.


btext:
And<WG2532> it came to pass<WG1096>, as<WG1722> he<WG846> sat at meat<WG2625> with<WG3326> them<WG846>, he took<WG2983> bread<WG740>, and blessed<WG2127> it, and<WG2532> brake<WG2806>, and gave<WG1929> to them<WG846>.
