LU-1:1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand

to set forth in order a declaration of those

things which are most surely believed among

us,

LU-1:2 Even as they delivered them unto us,

which from the beginning were eyewitnesses,

and ministers of the word;

LU-1:3 It seemed good to me also, having had

perfect understanding of all things from the

very first, to write unto thee in order, most

excellent Theophilus,

LU-1:4 That thou mightest know the certainty

of those things, wherein thou hast been

instructed.

LU-1:5 There was in the days of Herod, the

king of Judaea, a certain priest named

Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife

[was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name

[was] Elisabeth.

LU-1:6 And they were both righteous before

God, walking in all the commandments and

ordinances of the Lord blameless.

LU-1:7 And they had no child, because that

Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now]

well stricken in years.

LU-1:8 And it came to pass, that while he

executed the priest's office before God in the

order of his course,

LU-1:9 According to the custom of the

priest's office, his lot was to burn incense

when he went into the temple of the Lord.

LU-1:10 And the whole multitude of the people

were praying without at the time of incense.

LU-1:11 And there appeared unto him an angel

of the Lord standing on the right side of the

altar of incense.

LU-1:12 And when Zacharias saw [him], he was

troubled, and fear fell upon him.

LU-1:13 But the angel said unto him, Fear

not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and

thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and

thou shalt call his name John.

LU-1:14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness;

and many shall rejoice at his birth.

LU-1:15 For he shall be great in the sight of

the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor

strong drink; and he shall be filled with the

Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.

LU-1:16 And many of the children of Israel

shall he turn to the Lord their God.

LU-1:17 And he shall go before him in the

spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts

of the fathers to the children, and the

disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make

ready a people prepared for the Lord.

LU-1:18 And Zacharias said unto the angel,

Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old

man, and my wife well stricken in years.

LU-1:19 And the angel answering said unto

him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence

of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to

show thee these glad tidings.

LU-1:20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and

not able to speak, until the day that these

things shall be performed, because thou

believest not my words, which shall be

fulfilled in their season.

LU-1:21 And the people waited for Zacharias,

and marvelled that he tarried so long in the

temple.

LU-1:22 And when he came out, he could not

speak unto them: and they perceived that he

had seen a vision in the temple: for he

beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.

LU-1:23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as

the days of his ministration were

accomplished, he departed to his own house.

LU-1:24 And after those days his wife

Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five

months, saying,

LU-1:25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in

the days wherein he looked on [me], to take

away my reproach among men.

LU-1:26 And in the sixth month the angel

Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of

Galilee, named Nazareth,

LU-1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose

name was Joseph, of the house of David; and

the virgin's name [was] Mary.

LU-1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and

said, Hail, [thou that art] highly favoured,

the Lord [is] with thee: blessed [art] thou

among women.

LU-1:29 And when she saw [him], she was

troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind

what manner of salutation this should be.

LU-1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear

not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with

God.

LU-1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in

thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt

call his name JESUS.

LU-1:32 He shall be great, and shall be

called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord

God shall give unto him the throne of his

father David:

LU-1:33 And he shall reign over the house of

Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall

be no end.

LU-1:34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How

shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

LU-1:35 And the angel answered and said unto

her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and

the power of the Highest shall overshadow

thee: therefore also that holy thing which

shall be born of thee shall be called the Son

of God.

LU-1:36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth,

she hath also conceived a son in her old age:

and this is the sixth month with her, who was

called barren.

LU-1:37 For with God nothing shall be

impossible.

LU-1:38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of

the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.

And the angel departed from her.

LU-1:39 And Mary arose in those days, and

went into the hill country with haste, into a

city of Juda;

LU-1:40 And entered into the house of

Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

LU-1:41 And it came to pass, that, when

Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the

babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was

filled with the Holy Ghost:

LU-1:42 And she spake out with a loud voice,

and said, Blessed [art] thou among women, and

blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb.

LU-1:43 And whence [is] this to me, that the

mother of my Lord should come to me?

LU-1:44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy

salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe

leaped in my womb for joy.

LU-1:45 And blessed [is] she that believed:

for there shall be a performance of those

things which were told her from the Lord.

LU-1:46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify

the Lord,

LU-1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my

Saviour.

LU-1:48 For he hath regarded the low estate

of his handmaiden: for, behold, from

henceforth all generations shall call me

blessed.

LU-1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me

great things; and holy [is] his name.

LU-1:50 And his mercy [is] on them that fear

him from generation to generation.

LU-1:51 He hath showed strength with his arm;

he hath scattered the proud in the imagination

of their hearts.

LU-1:52 He hath put down the mighty from

[their] seats, and exalted them of low degree.



LU-1:53 He hath filled the hungry with good

things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.



LU-1:54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in

remembrance of [his] mercy;

LU-1:55 As he spake to our fathers, to

Abraham, and to his seed for ever.

LU-1:56 And Mary abode with her about three

months, and returned to her own house.

LU-1:57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that

she should be delivered; and she brought forth

a son.

LU-1:58 And her neighbours and her cousins

heard how the Lord had showed great mercy upon

her; and they rejoiced with her.

LU-1:59 And it came to pass, that on the

eighth day they came to circumcise the child;

and they called him Zacharias, after the name

of his father.

LU-1:60 And his mother answered and said, Not

[so]; but he shall be called John.

LU-1:61 And they said unto her, There is none

of thy kindred that is called by this name.

LU-1:62 And they made signs to his father,

how he would have him called.

LU-1:63 And he asked for a writing table, and

wrote, saying, His name is John. And they

marvelled all.

LU-1:64 And his mouth was opened immediately,

and his tongue [loosed], and he spake, and

praised God.

LU-1:65 And fear came on all that dwelt round

about them: and all these sayings were noised

abroad throughout all the hill country of

Judaea.

LU-1:66 And all they that heard [them] laid

[them] up in their hearts, saying, What manner

of child shall this be! And the hand of the

Lord was with him.

LU-1:67 And his father Zacharias was filled

with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,

LU-1:68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel;

for he hath visited and redeemed his people,

LU-1:69 And hath raised up an horn of

salvation for us in the house of his servant

David;

LU-1:70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy

prophets, which have been since the world

began:

LU-1:71 That we should be saved from our

enemies, and from the hand of all that hate

us;

LU-1:72 To perform the mercy [promised] to

our fathers, and to remember his holy

covenant;

LU-1:73 The oath which he sware to our father

Abraham,

LU-1:74 That he would grant unto us, that we

being delivered out of the hand of our enemies

might serve him without fear,

LU-1:75 In holiness and righteousness before

him, all the days of our life.

LU-1:76 And thou, child, shalt be called the

prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go

before the face of the Lord to prepare his

ways;

LU-1:77 To give knowledge of salvation unto

his people by the remission of their sins,

LU-1:78 Through the tender mercy of our God;

whereby the dayspring from on high hath

visited us,

LU-1:79 To give light to them that sit in

darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to

guide our feet into the way of peace.

LU-1:80 And the child grew, and waxed strong

in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day

of his showing unto Israel.

LU-2:1 And it came to pass in those days,

that there went out a decree from Caesar

Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.



LU-2:2 ([And] this taxing was first made when

Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

LU-2:3 And all went to be taxed, every one

into his own city.

LU-2:4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee,

out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto

the city of David, which is called Bethlehem;

(because he was of the house and lineage of

David:)

LU-2:5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused

wife, being great with child.

LU-2:6 And so it was, that, while they were

there, the days were accomplished that she

should be delivered.

LU-2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn

son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and

laid him in a manger; because there was no

room for them in the inn.

LU-2:8 And there were in the same country

shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch

over their flock by night.

LU-2:9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came

upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone

round about them: and they were sore afraid.

LU-2:10 And the angel said unto them, Fear

not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of

great joy, which shall be to all people.

LU-2:11 For unto you is born this day in the

city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the

Lord.

LU-2:12 And this [shall be] a sign unto you;

Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling

clothes, lying in a manger.

LU-2:13 And suddenly there was with the angel

a multitude of the heavenly host praising God,

and saying,

LU-2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on

earth peace, good will toward men.

LU-2:15 And it came to pass, as the angels

were gone away from them into heaven, the

shepherds said one to another, Let us now go

even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which

is come to pass, which the Lord hath made

known unto us.

LU-2:16 And they came with haste, and found

Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a

manger.

LU-2:17 And when they had seen [it], they

made known abroad the saying which was told

them concerning this child.

LU-2:18 And all they that heard [it] wondered

at those things which were told them by the

shepherds.

LU-2:19 But Mary kept all these things, and

pondered [them] in her heart.

LU-2:20 And the shepherds returned,

glorifying and praising God for all the things

that they had heard and seen, as it was told

unto them.

LU-2:21 And when eight days were accomplished

for the circumcising of the child, his name

was called JESUS, which was so named of the

angel before he was conceived in the womb.

LU-2:22 And when the days of her purification

according to the law of Moses were

accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem,

to present [him] to the Lord;

LU-2:23 (As it is written in the law of the

Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall

be called holy to the Lord;)

LU-2:24 And to offer a sacrifice according to

that which is said in the law of the Lord, A

pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.

LU-2:25 And, behold, there was a man in

Jerusalem, whose name [was] Simeon; and the

same man [was] just and devout, waiting for

the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost

was upon him.

LU-2:26 And it was revealed unto him by the

Holy Ghost, that he should not see death,

before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

LU-2:27 And he came by the Spirit into the

temple: and when the parents brought in the

child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of

the law,

LU-2:28 Then took he him up in his arms, and

blessed God, and said,

LU-2:29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant

depart in peace, according to thy word:

LU-2:30 For mine eyes have seen thy

salvation,

LU-2:31 Which thou hast prepared before the

face of all people;

LU-2:32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and

the glory of thy people Israel.

LU-2:33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled

at those things which were spoken of him.

LU-2:34 And Simeon blessed them, and said

unto Mary his mother, Behold, this [child] is

set for the fall and rising again of many in

Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken

against;

LU-2:35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through

thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many

hearts may be revealed.

LU-2:36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess,

the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser:

she was of a great age, and had lived with an

husband seven years from her virginity;

LU-2:37 And she [was] a widow of about

fourscore and four years, which departed not

from the temple, but served [God] with

fastings and prayers night and day.

LU-2:38 And she coming in that instant gave

thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of

him to all them that looked for redemption in

Jerusalem.

LU-2:39 And when they had performed all

things according to the law of the Lord, they

returned into Galilee, to their own city

Nazareth.

LU-2:40 And the child grew, and waxed strong

in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace

of God was upon him.

LU-2:41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem

every year at the feast of the passover.

LU-2:42 And when he was twelve years old,

they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of

the feast.

LU-2:43 And when they had fulfilled the days,

as they returned, the child Jesus tarried

behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother

knew not [of it].

LU-2:44 But they, supposing him to have been

in the company, went a day's journey; and they

sought him among [their] kinsfolk and

acquaintance.

LU-2:45 And when they found him not, they

turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.

LU-2:46 And it came to pass, that after three

days they found him in the temple, sitting in

the midst of the doctors, both hearing them,

and asking them questions.

LU-2:47 And all that heard him were

astonished at his understanding and answers.

LU-2:48 And when they saw him, they were

amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why

hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy

father and I have sought thee sorrowing.

LU-2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that

ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about

my Father's business?

LU-2:50 And they understood not the saying

which he spake unto them.

LU-2:51 And he went down with them, and came

to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but

his mother kept all these sayings in her

heart.

LU-2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and

stature, and in favour with God and man.

LU-3:1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign

of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being

governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch

of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of

Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and

Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,

LU-3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high

priests, the word of God came unto John the

son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

LU-3:3 And he came into all the country about

Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance

for the remission of sins;

LU-3:4 As it is written in the book of the

words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice

of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye

the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.



LU-3:5 Every valley shall be filled, and

every mountain and hill shall be brought low;

and the crooked shall be made straight, and

the rough ways [shall be] made smooth;

LU-3:6 And all flesh shall see the salvation

of God.

LU-3:7 Then said he to the multitude that

came forth to be baptized of him, O generation

of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from

the wrath to come?

LU-3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of

repentance, and begin not to say within

yourselves, We have Abraham to [our] father:

for I say unto you, That God is able of these

stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

LU-3:9 And now also the ax is laid unto the

root of the trees: every tree therefore which

bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down,

and cast into the fire.

LU-3:10 And the people asked him, saying,

What shall we do then?

LU-3:11 He answereth and saith unto them, He

that hath two coats, let him impart to him

that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him

do likewise.

LU-3:12 Then came also publicans to be

baptized, and said unto him, Master, what

shall we do?

LU-3:13 And he said unto them, Exact no more

than that which is appointed you.

LU-3:14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of

him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said

unto them, Do violence to no man, neither

accuse [any] falsely; and be content with your

wages.

LU-3:15 And as the people were in

expectation, and all men mused in their hearts

of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

LU-3:16 John answered, saying unto [them]

all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one

mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose

shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall

baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:



LU-3:17 Whose fan [is] in his hand, and he

will thoroughly purge his floor, and will

gather the wheat into his garner; but the

chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

LU-3:18 And many other things in his

exhortation preached he unto the people.

LU-3:19 But Herod the tetrarch, being

reproved by him for Herodias his brother

Philip's wife, and for all the evils which

Herod had done,

LU-3:20 Added yet this above all, that he

shut up John in prison.

LU-3:21 Now when all the people were

baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also

being baptized, and praying, the heaven was

opened,

LU-3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a

bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice

came from heaven, which said, Thou art my

beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

LU-3:23 And Jesus himself began to be about

thirty years of age, being (as was supposed)

the son of Joseph, which was [the son] of

Heli,

LU-3:24 Which was [the son] of Matthat, which

was [the son] of Levi, which was [the son] of

Melchi, which was [the son] of Janna, which

was [the son] of Joseph,

LU-3:25 Which was [the son] of Mattathias,

which was [the son] of Amos, which was [the

was [the son] of Rhesa, which was [the son] of

Zorobabel, which was [the son] of Salathiel,

which was [the son] of Neri,

LU-3:28 Which was [the son] of Melchi, which

was [the son] of Addi, which was [the son] of

Cosam, which was [the son] of Elmodam, which

was [the son] of Er,

LU-3:29 Which was [the son] of Jose, which

was [the son] of Eliezer, which was [the son]

of Jorim, which was [the son] of Matthat,

which was [the son] of Levi,

LU-3:30 Which was [the son] of Simeon, which

was [the son] of Juda, which was [the son] of

Joseph, which was [the son] of Jonan, which

was [the son] of Eliakim,

LU-3:31 Which was [the son] of Melea, which

was [the son] of Menan, which was [the son] of

Mattatha, which was [the son] of Nathan, which

was [the son] of David,

LU-3:32 Which was [the son] of Jesse, which

was [the son] of Obed, which was [the son] of

Booz, which was [the son] of Salmon, which was

[the son] of Naasson,

LU-3:33 Which was [the son] of Aminadab,

which was [the son] of Aram, which was [the

son] of Esrom, which was [the son] of Phares,

which was [the son] of Juda,

LU-3:34 Which was [the son] of Jacob, which

was [the son] of Isaac, which was [the son] of

Abraham, which was [the son] of Thara, which

was [the son] of Nachor,

LU-3:35 Which was [the son] of Saruch, which

was [the son] of Ragau, which was [the son] of

Phalec, which was [the son] of Heber, which

was [the son] of Sala,

LU-3:36 Which was [the son] of Cainan, which

was [the son] of Arphaxad, which was [the son]

of Sem, which was [the son] of Noe, which was

[the son] of Lamech,

LU-3:37 Which was [the son] of Mathusala,

which was [the son] of Enoch, which was [the

son] of Jared, which was [the son] of

Maleleel, which was [the son] of Cainan,

LU-3:38 Which was [the son] of Enos, which

was [the son] of Seth, which was [the son] of

Adam, which was [the son] of God.

LU-4:1 And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost

returned from Jordan, and was led by the

Spirit into the wilderness,

LU-4:2 Being forty days tempted of the devil.

And in those days he did eat nothing: and when

they were ended, he afterward hungered.

LU-4:3 And the devil said unto him, If thou

be the Son of God, command this stone that it

be made bread.

LU-4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is

written, That man shall not live by bread

alone, but by every word of God.

LU-4:5 And the devil, taking him up into an

high mountain, showed unto him all the

kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

LU-4:6 And the devil said unto him, All this

power will I give thee, and the glory of them:

for that is delivered unto me; and to

whomsoever I will I give it.

LU-4:7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all

shall be thine.

LU-4:8 And Jesus answered and said unto him,

Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written,

Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him

only shalt thou serve.

LU-4:9 And he brought him to Jerusalem, and

set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said

unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast

thyself down from hence:

LU-4:10 For it is written, He shall give his

angels charge over thee, to keep thee:

LU-4:11 And in [their] hands they shall bear

thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot

against a stone.

LU-4:12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It

is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy

God.

LU-4:13 And when the devil had ended all the

temptation, he departed from him for a season.



LU-4:14 And Jesus returned in the power of

the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a

fame of him through all the region round

about.

LU-4:15 And he taught in their synagogues,

being glorified of all.

LU-4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had

been brought up: and, as his custom was, he

went into the synagogue on the sabbath day,

and stood up for to read.

LU-4:17 And there was delivered unto him the

book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had

opened the book, he found the place where it

was written,

LU-4:18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me,

because he hath anointed me to preach the

gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal

the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to

the captives, and recovering of sight to the

blind, to set at liberty them that are

bruised,

LU-4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the

Lord.

LU-4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave

[it] again to the minister, and sat down. And

the eyes of all them that were in the

synagogue were fastened on him.

LU-4:21 And he began to say unto them, This

day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.



LU-4:22 And all bare him witness, and

wondered at the gracious words which proceeded

out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this

Joseph's son?

LU-4:23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely

say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal

thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in

Capernaum, do also here in thy country.

LU-4:24 And he said, Verily, I say unto you,

No prophet is accepted in his own country.

LU-4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many

widows were in Israel in the days of Elias,

when the heaven was shut up three years and

six months, when great famine was throughout

all the land;

LU-4:26 But unto none of them was Elias sent,

save unto Sarepta, [a city] of Sidon, unto a

woman [that was] a widow.

LU-4:27 And many lepers were in Israel in the

time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them

was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.

LU-4:28 And all they in the synagogue, when

they heard these things, were filled with

wrath,

LU-4:29 And rose up, and thrust him out of

the city, and led him unto the brow of the

hill whereon their city was built, that they

might cast him down headlong.

LU-4:30 But he passing through the midst of

them went his way,

LU-4:31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of

Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days.



LU-4:32 And they were astonished at his

doctrine: for his word was with power.

LU-4:33 And in the synagogue there was a man,

which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and

cried out with a loud voice,

LU-4:34 Saying, Let [us] alone; what have we

to do with thee, [thou] Jesus of Nazareth? art

thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou

art; the Holy One of God.

LU-4:35 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold

thy peace, and come out of him. And when the

devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out

of him, and hurt him not.

LU-4:36 And they were all amazed, and spake

among themselves, saying, What a word [is]

this! for with authority and power he

commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come

out.

LU-4:37 And the fame of him went out into

every place of the country round about.

LU-4:38 And he arose out of the synagogue,

and entered into Simon's house. And Simon's

wife's mother was taken with a great fever;

and they besought him for her.

LU-4:39 And he stood over her, and rebuked

the fever; and it left her: and immediately

she arose and ministered unto them.

LU-4:40 Now when the sun was setting, all

they that had any sick with divers diseases

brought them unto him; and he laid his hands

on every one of them, and healed them.

LU-4:41 And devils also came out of many,

crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the

Son of God. And he rebuking [them] suffered

them not to speak: for they knew that he was

Christ.

LU-4:42 And when it was day, he departed and

went into a desert place: and the people

sought him, and came unto him, and stayed him,

that he should not depart from them.

LU-4:43 And he said unto them, I must preach

the kingdom of God to other cities also: for

therefore am I sent.

LU-4:44 And he preached in the synagogues of

Galilee.

LU-5:1 And it came to pass, that, as the

people pressed upon him to hear the word of

God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

LU-5:2 And saw two ships standing by the

lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them,

and were washing [their] nets.

LU-5:3 And he entered into one of the ships,

which was Simon's, and prayed him that he

would thrust out a little from the land. And

he sat down, and taught the people out of the

ship.

LU-5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said

unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let

down your nets for a draught.

LU-5:5 And Simon answering said unto him,

Master, we have toiled all the night, and have

taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will

let down the net.

LU-5:6 And when they had this done, they

enclosed a great multitude of fishes: and

their net brake.

LU-5:7 And they beckoned unto [their]

partners, which were in the other ship, that

they should come and help them. And they came,

and filled both the ships, so that they began

to sink.

LU-5:8 When Simon Peter saw [it], he fell

down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me;

for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

LU-5:9 For he was astonished, and all that

were with him, at the draught of the fishes

which they had taken:

LU-5:10 And so [was] also James, and John,

the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with

Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not;

from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

LU-5:11 And when they had brought their ships

to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

LU-5:12 And it came to pass, when he was in a

certain city, behold a man full of leprosy:

who seeing Jesus fell on [his] face, and

besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou

canst make me clean.

LU-5:13 And he put forth [his] hand, and

touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean.

And immediately the leprosy departed from him.



LU-5:14 And he charged him to tell no man:

but go, and show thyself to the priest, and

offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses

commanded, for a testimony unto them.

LU-5:15 But so much the more went there a

fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came

together to hear, and to be healed by him of

their infirmities.

LU-5:16 And he withdrew himself into the

wilderness, and prayed.

LU-5:17 And it came to pass on a certain day,

as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees

and doctors of the law sitting by, which were

come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea,

and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was

[present] to heal them.

LU-5:18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a

man which was taken with a palsy: and they

sought [means] to bring him in, and to lay

[him] before him.

LU-5:19 And when they could not find by what

[way] they might bring him in because of the

multitude, they went upon the housetop, and

let him down through the tiling with [his]

couch into the midst before Jesus.

LU-5:20 And when he saw their faith, he said

unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

LU-5:21 And the scribes and the Pharisees

began to reason, saying, Who is this which

speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins,

but God alone?

LU-5:22 But when Jesus perceived their

thoughts, he answering said unto them, What

reason ye in your hearts?

LU-5:23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins

be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?



LU-5:24 But that ye may know that the Son of

man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he

said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto

thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go

into thine house.

LU-5:25 And immediately he rose up before

them, and took up that whereon he lay, and

departed to his own house, glorifying God.

LU-5:26 And they were all amazed, and they

glorified God, and were filled with fear,

saying, We have seen strange things to day.

LU-5:27 And after these things he went forth,

and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the

receipt of custom: and he said unto him,

Follow me.

LU-5:28 And he left all, rose up, and

followed him.

LU-5:29 And Levi made him a great feast in

his own house: and there was a great company

of publicans and of others that sat down with

them.

LU-5:30 But their scribes and Pharisees

murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do

ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

LU-5:31 And Jesus answering said unto them,

They that are whole need not a physician; but

they that are sick.

LU-5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but

sinners to repentance.

LU-5:33 And they said unto him, Why do the

disciples of John fast often, and make

prayers, and likewise [the disciples] of the

Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?

LU-5:34 And he said unto them, Can ye make

the children of the bridechamber fast, while

the bridegroom is with them?

LU-5:35 But the days will come, when the

bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and

then shall they fast in those days.

LU-5:36 And he spake also a parable unto

them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment

upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new

maketh a rent, and the piece that was [taken]

out of the new agreeth not with the old.

LU-5:37 And no man putteth new wine into old

bottles; else the new wine will burst the

bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall

perish.

LU-5:38 But new wine must be put into new

bottles; and both are preserved.

LU-5:39 No man also having drunk old [wine]

straightway desireth new: for he saith, The

old is better.

LU-6:1 And it came to pass on the second

sabbath after the first, that he went through

the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the

ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing [them] in

[their] hands.

LU-6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto

them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do

on the sabbath days?

LU-6:3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye

not read so much as this, what David did, when

himself was an hungered, and they which were

with him;

LU-6:4 How he went into the house of God, and

did take and eat the showbread, and gave also

to them that were with him; which it is not

lawful to eat but for the priests alone?

LU-6:5 And he said unto them, That the Son of

man is Lord also of the sabbath.

LU-6:6 And it came to pass also on another

sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue

and taught: and there was a man whose right

hand was withered.

LU-6:7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched

him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day;

that they might find an accusation against

him.

LU-6:8 But he knew their thoughts, and said

to the man which had the withered hand, Rise

up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose

and stood forth.

LU-6:9 Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask

you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath

days to do good, or to do evil? to save life,

or to destroy [it]?

LU-6:10 And looking round about upon them

all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy

hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored

whole as the other.

LU-6:11 And they were filled with madness;

and communed one with another what they might

do to Jesus.

LU-6:12 And it came to pass in those days,

that he went out into a mountain to pray, and

continued all night in prayer to God.

LU-6:13 And when it was day, he called [unto

him] his disciples: and of them he chose

twelve, whom also he named apostles;

LU-6:14 Simon, (whom he also named Peter,)

and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip

and Bartholomew,

LU-6:15 Matthew and Thomas, James the [son]

of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,

LU-6:16 And Judas [the brother] of James, and

Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.

LU-6:17 And he came down with them, and stood

in the plain, and the company of his

disciples, and a great multitude of people out

of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea

coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear

him, and to be healed of their diseases;

LU-6:18 And they that were vexed with unclean

spirits: and they were healed.

LU-6:19 And the whole multitude sought to

touch him: for there went virtue out of him,

and healed [them] all.

LU-6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his

disciples, and said, Blessed [be ye] poor: for

yours is the kingdom of God.

LU-6:21 Blessed [are ye] that hunger now: for

ye shall be filled. Blessed [are ye] that weep

now: for ye shall laugh.

LU-6:22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate

you, and when they shall separate you [from

their company], and shall reproach [you], and

cast out your name as evil, for the Son of

man's sake.

LU-6:23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for

joy: for, behold, your reward [is] great in

heaven: for in the like manner did their

fathers unto the prophets.

LU-6:24 But woe unto you that are rich! for

ye have received your consolation.

LU-6:25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye

shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for

ye shall mourn and weep.

LU-6:26 Woe unto you, when all men shall

speak well of you! for so did their fathers to

the false prophets.

LU-6:27 But I say unto you which hear, Love

your enemies, do good to them which hate you,



LU-6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray

for them which despitefully use you.

LU-6:29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the

[one] cheek offer also the other; and him that

taketh away thy cloak forbid not [to take thy]

coat also.

LU-6:30 Give to every man that asketh of

thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods

ask [them] not again.

LU-6:31 And as ye would that men should do to

you, do ye also to them likewise.

LU-6:32 For if ye love them which love you,

what thank have ye? for sinners also love

those that love them.

LU-6:33 And if ye do good to them which do

good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners

also do even the same.

LU-6:34 And if ye lend [to them] of whom ye

hope to receive, what thank have ye? for

sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as

much again.

LU-6:35 But love ye your enemies, and do

good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and

your reward shall be great, and ye shall be

the children of the Highest: for he is kind

unto the unthankful and [to] the evil.

LU-6:36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your

Father also is merciful.

LU-6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be

judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be

condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:



LU-6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you;

good measure, pressed down, and shaken

together, and running over, shall men give

into your bosom. For with the same measure

that ye mete withal it shall be measured to

you again.

LU-6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can

the blind lead the blind? shall they not both

fall into the ditch?

LU-6:40 The disciple is not above his master:

but every one that is perfect shall be as his

master.

LU-6:41 And why beholdest thou the mote that

is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not

the beam that is in thine own eye?

LU-6:42 Either how canst thou say to thy

brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote

that is in thine eye, when thou thyself

beholdest not the beam that is in thine own

eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam

out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see

clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy

brother's eye.

LU-6:43 For a good tree bringeth not forth

corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree

bring forth good fruit.

LU-6:44 For every tree is known by his own

fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs,

nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

LU-6:45 A good man out of the good treasure

of his heart bringeth forth that which is

good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure

of his heart bringeth forth that which is

evil: for of the abundance of the heart his

mouth speaketh.

LU-6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and

do not the things which I say?

LU-6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth

my sayings, and doeth them, I will show you to

whom he is like:

LU-6:48 He is like a man which built an

house, and digged deep, and laid the

foundation on a rock: and when the flood

arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that

house, and could not shake it: for it was

founded upon a rock.

LU-6:49 But he that heareth, and doeth not,

is like a man that without a foundation built

an house upon the earth; against which the

stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it

fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

LU-7:1 Now when he had ended all his sayings

in the audience of the people, he entered into

Capernaum.

LU-7:2 And a certain centurion's servant, who

was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.



LU-7:3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent

unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching

him that he would come and heal his servant.

LU-7:4 And when they came to Jesus, they

besought him instantly, saying, That he was

worthy for whom he should do this:

LU-7:5 For he loveth our nation, and he hath

built us a synagogue.

LU-7:6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he

was now not far from the house, the centurion

sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord,

trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that

thou shouldest enter under my roof:

LU-7:7 Wherefore neither thought I myself

worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word,

and my servant shall be healed.

LU-7:8 For I also am a man set under

authority, having under me soldiers, and I say

unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another,

Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do

this, and he doeth [it].

LU-7:9 When Jesus heard these things, he

marvelled at him, and turned him about, and

said unto the people that followed him, I say

unto you, I have not found so great faith, no,

not in Israel.

LU-7:10 And they that were sent, returning to

the house, found the servant whole that had

been sick.

LU-7:11 And it came to pass the day after,

that he went into a city called Nain; and many

of his disciples went with him, and much

people.

LU-7:12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of

the city, behold, there was a dead man carried

out, the only son of his mother, and she was a

widow: and much people of the city was with

her.

LU-7:13 And when the Lord saw her, he had

compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep

not.

LU-7:14 And he came and touched the bier: and

they that bare [him] stood still. And he said,

Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

LU-7:15 And he that was dead sat up, and

began to speak. And he delivered him to his

mother.

LU-7:16 And there came a fear on all: and

they glorified God, saying, That a great

prophet is risen up among us; and, That God

hath visited his people.

LU-7:17 And this rumour of him went forth

throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the

region round about.

LU-7:18 And the disciples of John showed him

of all these things.

LU-7:19 And John calling [unto him] two of

his disciples sent [them] to Jesus, saying,

Art thou he that should come? or look we for

another?

LU-7:20 When the men were come unto him, they

said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee,

saying, Art thou he that should come? or look

we for another?

LU-7:21 And in that same hour he cured many

of [their] infirmities and plagues, and of

evil spirits; and unto many [that were] blind

he gave sight.

LU-7:22 Then Jesus answering said unto them,

Go your way, and tell John what things ye have

seen and heard; how that the blind see, the

lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf

hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the

gospel is preached.

LU-7:23 And blessed is [he], whosoever shall

not be offended in me.

LU-7:24 And when the messengers of John were

departed, he began to speak unto the people

concerning John, What went ye out into the

wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the

wind?

LU-7:25 But what went ye out for to see? A

man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they

which are gorgeously apparelled, and live

delicately, are in kings' courts.

LU-7:26 But what went ye out for to see? A

prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more

than a prophet.

LU-7:27 This is [he], of whom it is written,

Behold, I send my messenger before thy face,

which shall prepare thy way before thee.

LU-7:28 For I say unto you, Among those that

are born of women there is not a greater

prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is

least in the kingdom of God is greater than

he.

LU-7:29 And all the people that heard [him],

and the publicans, justified God, being

baptized with the baptism of John.

LU-7:30 But the Pharisees and lawyers

rejected the counsel of God against

themselves, being not baptized of him.

LU-7:31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then

shall I liken the men of this generation? and

to what are they like?

LU-7:32 They are like unto children sitting

in the marketplace, and calling one to

another, and saying, We have piped unto you,

and ye have not danced; we have mourned to

you, and ye have not wept.

LU-7:33 For John the Baptist came neither

eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He

hath a devil.

LU-7:34 The Son of man is come eating and

drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man,

and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and

sinners!

LU-7:35 But wisdom is justified of all her

children.

LU-7:36 And one of the Pharisees desired him

that he would eat with him. And he went into

the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.

LU-7:37 And, behold, a woman in the city,

which was a sinner, when she knew that [Jesus]

sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought

an alabaster box of ointment,

LU-7:38 And stood at his feet behind [him]

weeping, and began to wash his feet with

tears, and did wipe [them] with the hairs of

her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed

[them] with the ointment.

LU-7:39 Now when the Pharisee which had

bidden him saw [it], he spake within himself,

saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would

have known who and what manner of woman [this

is] that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

LU-7:40 And Jesus answering said unto him,

Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And

he saith, Master, say on.

LU-7:41 There was a certain creditor which

had two debtors: the one owed five hundred

pence, and the other fifty.

LU-7:42 And when they had nothing to pay, he

frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore,

which of them will love him most?

LU-7:43 Simon answered and said, I suppose

that [he], to whom he forgave most. And he

said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

LU-7:44 And he turned to the woman, and said

unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered

into thine house, thou gavest me no water for

my feet: but she hath washed my feet with

tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her

head.

LU-7:45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this

woman since the time I came in hath not ceased

to kiss my feet.

LU-7:46 My head with oil thou didst not

anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet

with ointment.

LU-7:47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins,

which are many, are forgiven; for she loved

much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the

same] loveth little.

LU-7:48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are

forgiven.

LU-7:49 And they that sat at meat with him

began to say within themselves, Who is this

that forgiveth sins also?

LU-7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith

hath saved thee; go in peace.

LU-8:1 And it came to pass afterward, that he

went throughout every city and village,

preaching and showing the glad tidings of the

kingdom of God: and the twelve [were] with

him,

LU-8:2 And certain women, which had been

healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary

called Magdalene, out of whom went seven

devils,

LU-8:3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's

steward, and Susanna, and many others, which

ministered unto him of their substance.

LU-8:4 And when much people were gathered

together, and were come to him out of every

city, he spake by a parable:

LU-8:5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and

as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it

was trodden down, and the fowls of the air

devoured it.

LU-8:6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon

as it was sprung up, it withered away, because

it lacked moisture.

LU-8:7 And some fell among thorns; and the

thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.

LU-8:8 And other fell on good ground, and

sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And

when he had said these things, he cried, He

that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

LU-8:9 And his disciples asked him, saying,

What might this parable be?

LU-8:10 And he said, Unto you it is given to

know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but

to others in parables; that seeing they might

not see, and hearing they might not

understand.

LU-8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is

the word of God.

LU-8:12 Those by the way side are they that

hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away

the word out of their hearts, lest they should

believe and be saved.

LU-8:13 They on the rock [are they], which,

when they hear, receive the word with joy; and

these have no root, which for a while believe,

and in time of temptation fall away.

LU-8:14 And that which fell among thorns are

they, which, when they have heard, go forth,

and are choked with cares and riches and

pleasures of [this] life, and bring no fruit

to perfection.

LU-8:15 But that on the good ground are they,

which in an honest and good heart, having

heard the word, keep [it], and bring forth

fruit with patience.

LU-8:16 No man, when he hath lighted a

candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth

[it] under a bed; but setteth [it] on a

candlestick, that they which enter in may see

the light.

LU-8:17 For nothing is secret, that shall not

be made manifest; neither [any thing] hid,

that shall not be known and come abroad.

LU-8:18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for

whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and

whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken

even that which he seemeth to have.

LU-8:19 Then came to him [his] mother and his

brethren, and could not come at him for the

press.

LU-8:20 And it was told him [by certain]

which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand

without, desiring to see thee.

LU-8:21 And he answered and said unto them,

My mother and my brethren are these which hear

the word of God, and do it.

LU-8:22 Now it came to pass on a certain day,

that he went into a ship with his disciples:

and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the

other side of the lake. And they launched

forth.

LU-8:23 But as they sailed he fell asleep:

and there came down a storm of wind on the

lake; and they were filled [with water], and

were in jeopardy.

LU-8:24 And they came to him, and awoke him,

saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he

arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of

the water: and they ceased, and there was a

calm.

LU-8:25 And he said unto them, Where is your

faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying

one to another, What manner of man is this!

for he commandeth even the winds and water,

and they obey him.

LU-8:26 And they arrived at the country of

the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.



LU-8:27 And when he went forth to land, there

met him out of the city a certain man, which

had devils long time, and ware no clothes,

neither abode in [any] house, but in the

tombs.

LU-8:28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and

fell down before him, and with a loud voice

said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus,

[thou] Son of God most high? I beseech thee,

torment me not.

LU-8:29 (For he had commanded the unclean

spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes

it had caught him: and he was kept bound with

chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands,

and was driven of the devil into the

wilderness.)

LU-8:30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is

thy name? And he said, Legion: because many

devils were entered into him.

LU-8:31 And they besought him that he would

not command them to go out into the deep.

LU-8:32 And there was there an herd of many

swine feeding on the mountain: and they

besought him that he would suffer them to

enter into them. And he suffered them.

LU-8:33 Then went the devils out of the man,

and entered into the swine: and the herd ran

violently down a steep place into the lake,

and were choked.

LU-8:34 When they that fed [them] saw what

was done, they fled, and went and told [it] in

the city and in the country.

LU-8:35 Then they went out to see what was

done; and came to Jesus, and found the man,

out of whom the devils were departed, sitting

at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his

right mind: and they were afraid.

LU-8:36 They also which saw [it] told them by

what means he that was possessed of the devils

was healed.

LU-8:37 Then the whole multitude of the

country of the Gadarenes round about besought

him to depart from them; for they were taken

with great fear: and he went up into the ship,

and returned back again.

LU-8:38 Now the man out of whom the devils

were departed besought him that he might be

with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,

LU-8:39 Return to thine own house, and show

how great things God hath done unto thee. And

he went his way, and published throughout the

whole city how great things Jesus had done

unto him.

LU-8:40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus

was returned, the people [gladly] received

him: for they were all waiting for him.

LU-8:41 And, behold, there came a man named

Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue:

and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought

him that he would come into his house:

LU-8:42 For he had one only daughter, about

twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But

as he went the people thronged him.

LU-8:43 And a woman having an issue of blood

twelve years, which had spent all her living

upon physicians, neither could be healed of

any,

LU-8:44 Came behind [him], and touched the

border of his garment: and immediately her

issue of blood stanched.

LU-8:45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When

all denied, Peter and they that were with him

said, Master, the multitude throng thee and

press [thee], and sayest thou, Who touched me?



LU-8:46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched

me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of

me.

LU-8:47 And when the woman saw that she was

not hid, she came trembling, and falling down

before him, she declared unto him before all

the people for what cause she had touched him,

and how she was healed immediately.

LU-8:48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of

good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole;

go in peace.

LU-8:49 While he yet spake, there cometh one

from the ruler of the synagogue's [house],

saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble

not the Master.

LU-8:50 But when Jesus heard [it], he

answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only,

and she shall be made whole.

LU-8:51 And when he came into the house, he

suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and

James, and John, and the father and the mother

of the maiden.

LU-8:52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but

he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but

sleepeth.

LU-8:53 And they laughed him to scorn,

knowing that she was dead.

LU-8:54 And he put them all out, and took her

by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.



LU-8:55 And her spirit came again, and she

arose straightway: and he commanded to give

her meat.

LU-8:56 And her parents were astonished: but

he charged them that they should tell no man

what was done.

LU-9:1 Then he called his twelve disciples

together, and gave them power and authority

over all devils, and to cure diseases.

LU-9:2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom

of God, and to heal the sick.

LU-9:3 And he said unto them, Take nothing

for [your] journey, neither staves, nor scrip,

neither bread, neither money; neither have two

coats apiece.

LU-9:4 And whatsoever house ye enter into,

there abide, and thence depart.

LU-9:5 And whosoever will not receive you,

when ye go out of that city, shake off the

very dust from your feet for a testimony

against them.

LU-9:6 And they departed, and went through

the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing

every where.

LU-9:7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all

that was done by him: and he was perplexed,

because that it was said of some, that John

was risen from the dead;

LU-9:8 And of some, that Elias had appeared;

and of others, that one of the old prophets

was risen again.

LU-9:9 And Herod said, John have I beheaded:

but who is this, of whom I hear such things?

And he desired to see him.

LU-9:10 And the apostles, when they were

returned, told him all that they had done. And

he took them, and went aside privately into a

desert place belonging to the city called

Bethsaida.

LU-9:11 And the people, when they knew [it],

followed him: and he received them, and spake

unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed

them that had need of healing.

LU-9:12 And when the day began to wear away,

then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send

the multitude away, that they may go into the

towns and country round about, and lodge, and

get victuals: for we are here in a desert

place.

LU-9:13 But he said unto them, Give ye them

to eat. And they said, We have no more but

five loaves and two fishes; except we should

go and buy meat for all this people.

LU-9:14 For they were about five thousand

men. And he said to his disciples, Make them

sit down by fifties in a company.

LU-9:15 And they did so, and made them all

sit down.

LU-9:16 Then he took the five loaves and the

two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he

blessed them, and brake, and gave to the

disciples to set before the multitude.

LU-9:17 And they did eat, and were all

filled: and there was taken up of fragments

that remained to them twelve baskets.

LU-9:18 And it came to pass, as he was alone

praying, his disciples were with him: and he

asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I

am?

LU-9:19 They answering said, John the

Baptist; but some [say], Elias; and others

[say], that one of the old prophets is risen

again.

LU-9:20 He said unto them, But whom say ye

that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of

God.

LU-9:21 And he straitly charged them, and

commanded [them] to tell no man that thing;

LU-9:22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer

many things, and be rejected of the elders and

chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and

be raised the third day.

LU-9:23 And he said to [them] all, If any

[man] will come after me, let him deny

himself, and take up his cross daily, and

follow me.

LU-9:24 For whosoever will save his life

shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his

life for my sake, the same shall save it.

LU-9:25 For what is a man advantaged, if he

gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be

cast away?

LU-9:26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me

and of my words, of him shall the Son of man

be ashamed, when he shall come in his own

glory, and [in his] Father's, and of the holy

angels.

LU-9:27 But I tell you of a truth, there be

some standing here, which shall not taste of

death, till they see the kingdom of God.

LU-9:28 And it came to pass about an eight

days after these sayings, he took Peter and

John and James, and went up into a mountain to

pray.

LU-9:29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his

countenance was altered, and his raiment [was]

white [and] glistering.

LU-9:30 And, behold, there talked with him

two men, which were Moses and Elias:

LU-9:31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of

his decease which he should accomplish at

Jerusalem.

LU-9:32 But Peter and they that were with him

were heavy with sleep: and when they were

awake, they saw his glory, and the two men

that stood with him.

LU-9:33 And it came to pass, as they departed

from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is

good for us to be here: and let us make three

tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses,

and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

LU-9:34 While he thus spake, there came a

cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared

as they entered into the cloud.

LU-9:35 And there came a voice out of the

cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear

him.

LU-9:36 And when the voice was past, Jesus

was found alone. And they kept [it] close, and

told no man in those days any of those things

which they had seen.

LU-9:37 And it came to pass, that on the next

day, when they were come down from the hill,

much people met him.

LU-9:38 And, behold, a man of the company

cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee,

look upon my son: for he is mine only child.

LU-9:39 And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he

suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that

he foameth again, and bruising him hardly

departeth from him.

LU-9:40 And I besought thy disciples to cast

him out; and they could not.

LU-9:41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless

and perverse generation, how long shall I be

with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son

hither.

LU-9:42 And as he was yet a coming, the devil

threw him down, and tare [him]. And Jesus

rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the

child, and delivered him again to his father.



LU-9:43 And they were all amazed at the

mighty power of God. But while they wondered

every one at all things which Jesus did, he

said unto his disciples,

LU-9:44 Let these sayings sink down into your

ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered

into the hands of men.

LU-9:45 But they understood not this saying,

and it was hid from them, that they perceived

it not: and they feared to ask him of that

saying.

LU-9:46 Then there arose a reasoning among

them, which of them should be greatest.

LU-9:47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of

their heart, took a child, and set him by him,



LU-9:48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall

receive this child in my name receiveth me:

and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him

that sent me: for he that is least among you

all, the same shall be great.

LU-9:49 And John answered and said, Master,

we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and

we forbad him, because he followeth not with

us.

LU-9:50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him]

not: for he that is not against us is for us.



LU-9:51 And it came to pass, when the time

was come that he should be received up, he

stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,

LU-9:52 And sent messengers before his face:

and they went, and entered into a village of

the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

LU-9:53 And they did not receive him, because

his face was as though he would go to

Jerusalem.

LU-9:54 And when his disciples James and John

saw [this], they said, Lord, wilt thou that we

command fire to come down from heaven, and

consume them, even as Elias did?

LU-9:55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and

said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are

of.

LU-9:56 For the Son of man is not come to

destroy men's lives, but to save [them]. And

they went to another village.

LU-9:57 And it came to pass, that, as they

went in the way, a certain [man] said unto

him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever

thou goest.

LU-9:58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have

holes, and birds of the air [have] nests; but

the Son of man hath not where to lay [his]

head.

LU-9:59 And he said unto another, Follow me.

But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and

bury my father.

LU-9:60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead

bury their dead: but go thou and preach the

kingdom of God.

LU-9:61 And another also said, Lord, I will

follow thee; but let me first go bid them

farewell, which are at home at my house.

LU-9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man,

having put his hand to the plow, and looking

back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

LU-10:1 After these things the Lord appointed

other seventy also, and sent them two and two

before his face into every city and place,

whither he himself would come.

LU-10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The

harvest truly [is] great, but the labourers

[are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the

harvest, that he would send forth labourers

into his harvest.

LU-10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you

forth as lambs among wolves.

LU-10:4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor

shoes: and salute no man by the way.

LU-10:5 And into whatsoever house ye enter,

first say, Peace [be] to this house.

LU-10:6 And if the son of peace be there,

your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it

shall turn to you again.

LU-10:7 And in the same house remain, eating

and drinking such things as they give: for the

labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from

house to house.

LU-10:8 And into whatsoever city ye enter,

and they receive you, eat such things as are

set before you:

LU-10:9 And heal the sick that are therein,

and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come

nigh unto you.

LU-10:10 But into whatsoever city ye enter,

and they receive you not, go your ways out

into the streets of the same, and say,

LU-10:11 Even the very dust of your city,

which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against

you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that

the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

LU-10:12 But I say unto you, that it shall be

more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for

that city.

LU-10:13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto

thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had

been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been

done in you, they had a great while ago

repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

LU-10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for

Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.



LU-10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art

exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to

hell.

LU-10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and

he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he

that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.



LU-10:17 And the seventy returned again with

joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject

unto us through thy name.

LU-10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld

Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

LU-10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to

tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all

the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by

any means hurt you.

LU-10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not,

that the spirits are subject unto you; but

rather rejoice, because your names are written

in heaven.

LU-10:21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in

spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord

of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these

things from the wise and prudent, and hast

revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for

so it seemed good in thy sight.

LU-10:22 All things are delivered to me of my

Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but

the Father; and who the Father is, but the

Son, and [he] to whom the Son will reveal

[him].

LU-10:23 And he turned him unto [his]

disciples, and said privately, Blessed [are]

the eyes which see the things that ye see:

LU-10:24 For I tell you, that many prophets

and kings have desired to see those things

which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to

hear those things which ye hear, and have not

heard [them].

LU-10:25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood

up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what

shall I do to inherit eternal life?

LU-10:26 He said unto him, What is written in

the law? how readest thou?

LU-10:27 And he answering said, Thou shalt

love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and

with all thy soul, and with all thy strength,

and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as

thyself.

LU-10:28 And he said unto him, Thou hast

answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.



LU-10:29 But he, willing to justify himself,

said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

LU-10:30 And Jesus answering said, A certain

[man] went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and

fell among thieves, which stripped him of his

raiment, and wounded [him], and departed,

leaving [him] half dead.

LU-10:31 And by chance there came down a

certain priest that way: and when he saw him,

he passed by on the other side.

LU-10:32 And likewise a Levite, when he was

at the place, came and looked [on him], and

passed by on the other side.

LU-10:33 But a certain Samaritan, as he

journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw

him, he had compassion [on him],

LU-10:34 And went to [him], and bound up his

wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him

on his own beast, and brought him to an inn,

and took care of him.

LU-10:35 And on the morrow when he departed,

he took out two pence, and gave [them] to the

host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and

whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come

again, I will repay thee.

LU-10:36 Which now of these three, thinkest

thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among

the thieves?

LU-10:37 And he said, He that showed mercy on

him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou

likewise.

LU-10:38 Now it came to pass, as they went,

that he entered into a certain village: and a

certain woman named Martha received him into

her house.

LU-10:39 And she had a sister called Mary,

which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his

word.

LU-10:40 But Martha was cumbered about much

serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost

thou not care that my sister hath left me to

serve alone? bid her therefore that she help

me.

LU-10:41 And Jesus answered and said unto

her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and

troubled about many things:

LU-10:42 But one thing is needful: and Mary

hath chosen that good part, which shall not be

taken away from her.

LU-11:1 And it came to pass, that, as he was

praying in a certain place, when he ceased,

one of his disciples said unto him, Lord,

teach us to pray, as John also taught his

disciples.

LU-11:2 And he said unto them, When ye pray,

say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed

be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be

done, as in heaven, so in earth.

LU-11:3 Give us day by day our daily bread.

LU-11:4 And forgive us our sins; for we also

forgive every one that is indebted to us. And

lead us not into temptation; but deliver us

from evil.

LU-11:5 And he said unto them, Which of you

shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at

midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me

three loaves;

LU-11:6 For a friend of mine in his journey

is come to me, and I have nothing to set

before him?

LU-11:7 And he from within shall answer and

say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and

my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise

and give thee.

LU-11:8 I say unto you, Though he will not

rise and give him, because he is his friend,

yet because of his importunity he will rise

and give him as many as he needeth.

LU-11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall

be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock,

and it shall be opened unto you.

LU-11:10 For every one that asketh receiveth;

and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that

knocketh it shall be opened.

LU-11:11 If a son shall ask bread of any of

you that is a father, will he give him a

stone? or if [he ask] a fish, will he for a

fish give him a serpent?

LU-11:12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he

offer him a scorpion?

LU-11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to

give good gifts unto your children: how much

more shall [your] heavenly Father give the

Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

LU-11:14 And he was casting out a devil, and

it was dumb. And it came to pass, when the

devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the

people wondered.

LU-11:15 But some of them said, He casteth

out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the

devils.

LU-11:16 And others, tempting [him], sought

of him a sign from heaven.

LU-11:17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said

unto them, Every kingdom divided against

itself is brought to desolation; and a house

[divided] against a house falleth.

LU-11:18 If Satan also be divided against

himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because

ye say that I cast out devils through

Beelzebub.

LU-11:19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out

devils, by whom do your sons cast [them] out?

therefore shall they be your judges.

LU-11:20 But if I with the finger of God cast

out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is

come upon you.

LU-11:21 When a strong man armed keepeth his

palace, his goods are in peace:

LU-11:22 But when a stronger than he shall

come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh

from him all his armour wherein he trusted,

and divideth his spoils.

LU-11:23 He that is not with me is against

me: and he that gathereth not with me

scattereth.

LU-11:24 When the unclean spirit is gone out

of a man, he walketh through dry places,

seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I

will return unto my house whence I came out.

LU-11:25 And when he cometh, he findeth [it]

swept and garnished.

LU-11:26 Then goeth he, and taketh [to him]

seven other spirits more wicked than himself;

and they enter in, and dwell there: and the

last [state] of that man is worse than the

first.

LU-11:27 And it came to pass, as he spake

these things, a certain woman of the company

lifted up her voice, and said unto him,

Blessed [is] the womb that bare thee, and the

paps which thou hast sucked.

LU-11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed

[are] they that hear the word of God, and keep

it.

LU-11:29 And when the people were gathered

thick together, he began to say, This is an

evil generation: they seek a sign; and there

shall no sign be given it, but the sign of

Jonas the prophet.

LU-11:30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the

Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to

this generation.

LU-11:31 The queen of the south shall rise up

in the judgment with the men of this

generation, and condemn them: for she came

from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the

wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than

Solomon [is] here.

LU-11:32 The men of Nineve shall rise up in

the judgment with this generation, and shall

condemn it: for they repented at the preaching

of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas

[is] here.

LU-11:33 No man, when he hath lighted a

candle, putteth [it] in a secret place,

neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick,

that they which come in may see the light.

LU-11:34 The light of the body is the eye:

therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole

body also is full of light; but when [thine

eye] is evil, thy body also [is] full of

darkness.

LU-11:35 Take heed therefore that the light

which is in thee be not darkness.

LU-11:36 If thy whole body therefore [be]

full of light, having no part dark, the whole

shall be full of light, as when the bright

shining of a candle doth give thee light.

LU-11:37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee

besought him to dine with him: and he went in,

and sat down to meat.

LU-11:38 And when the Pharisee saw [it], he

marvelled that he had not first washed before

dinner.

LU-11:39 And the Lord said unto him, Now do

ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup

and the platter; but your inward part is full

of ravening and wickedness.

LU-11:40 [Ye] fools, did not he that made

that which is without make that which is

within also?

LU-11:41 But rather give alms of such things

as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean

unto you.

LU-11:42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye

tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs,

and pass over judgment and the love of God:

these ought ye to have done, and not to leave

the other undone.

LU-11:43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love

the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and

greetings in the markets.

LU-11:44 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,

hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear

not, and the men that walk over [them] are not

aware [of them].

LU-11:45 Then answered one of the lawyers,

and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou

reproachest us also.

LU-11:46 And he said, Woe unto you also, [ye]

lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous

to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the

burdens with one of your fingers.

LU-11:47 Woe unto you! for ye build the

sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers

killed them.

LU-11:48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow

the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed

killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.

LU-11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of

God, I will send them prophets and apostles,

and [some] of them they shall slay and

persecute:

LU-11:50 That the blood of all the prophets,

which was shed from the foundation of the

world, may be required of this generation;

LU-11:51 From the blood of Abel unto the

blood of Zacharias, which perished between the

altar and the temple: verily I say unto you,

It shall be required of this generation.

LU-11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have

taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered

not in yourselves, and them that were entering

in ye hindered.

LU-11:53 And as he said these things unto

them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to

urge [him] vehemently, and to provoke him to

speak of many things:

LU-11:54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to

catch something out of his mouth, that they

might accuse him.

LU-12:1 In the mean time, when there were

gathered together an innumerable multitude of

people, insomuch that they trode one upon

another, he began to say unto his disciples

first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the

Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

LU-12:2 For there is nothing covered, that

shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall

not be known.

LU-12:3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken

in darkness shall be heard in the light; and

that which ye have spoken in the ear in

closets shall be proclaimed upon the

housetops.

LU-12:4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not

afraid of them that kill the body, and after

that have no more that they can do.

LU-12:5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall

fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed

hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto

you, Fear him.

LU-12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two

farthings, and not one of them is forgotten

before God?

LU-12:7 But even the very hairs of your head

are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are

of more value than many sparrows.

LU-12:8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall

confess me before men, him shall the Son of

man also confess before the angels of God:

LU-12:9 But he that denieth me before men

shall be denied before the angels of God.

LU-12:10 And whosoever shall speak a word

against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven

him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the

Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.

LU-12:11 And when they bring you unto the

synagogues, and [unto] magistrates, and

powers, take ye no thought how or what thing

ye shall answer, or what ye shall say:

LU-12:12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you

in the same hour what ye ought to say.

LU-12:13 And one of the company said unto

him, Master, speak to my brother, that he

divide the inheritance with me.

LU-12:14 And he said unto him, Man, who made

me a judge or a divider over you?

LU-12:15 And he said unto them, Take heed,

and beware of covetousness: for a man's life

consisteth not in the abundance of the things

which he possesseth.

LU-12:16 And he spake a parable unto them,

saying, The ground of a certain rich man

brought forth plentifully:

LU-12:17 And he thought within himself,

saying, What shall I do, because I have no

room where to bestow my fruits?

LU-12:18 And he said, This will I do: I will

pull down my barns, and build greater; and

there will I bestow all my fruits and my

goods.

LU-12:19 And I will say to my soul, Soul,

thou hast much goods laid up for many years;

take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.

LU-12:20 But God said unto him, [Thou] fool,

this night thy soul shall be required of thee:

then whose shall those things be, which thou

hast provided?

LU-12:21 So [is] he that layeth up treasure

for himself, and is not rich toward God.

LU-12:22 And he said unto his disciples,

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for

your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the

body, what ye shall put on.

LU-12:23 The life is more than meat, and the

body [is more] than raiment.

LU-12:24 Consider the ravens: for they

neither sow nor reap; which neither have

storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how

much more are ye better than the fowls?

LU-12:25 And which of you with taking thought

can add to his stature one cubit?

LU-12:26 If ye then be not able to do that

thing which is least, why take ye thought for

the rest?

LU-12:27 Consider the lilies how they grow:

they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say

unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was

not arrayed like one of these.

LU-12:28 If then God so clothe the grass,

which is to day in the field, and to morrow is

cast into the oven; how much more [will he

clothe] you, O ye of little faith?

LU-12:29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat,

or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of

doubtful mind.

LU-12:30 For all these things do the nations

of the world seek after: and your Father

knoweth that ye have need of these things.

LU-12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of

God; and all these things shall be added unto

you.

LU-12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is

your Father's good pleasure to give you the

kingdom.

LU-12:33 Sell that ye have, and give alms;

provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a

treasure in the heavens that faileth not,

where no thief approacheth, neither moth

corrupteth.

LU-12:34 For where your treasure is, there

will your heart be also.

LU-12:35 Let your loins be girded about, and

[your] lights burning;

LU-12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that

wait for their lord, when he will return from

the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh,

they may open unto him immediately.

LU-12:37 Blessed [are] those servants, whom

the lord when he cometh shall find watching:

verily I say unto you, that he shall gird

himself, and make them to sit down to meat,

and will come forth and serve them.

LU-12:38 And if he shall come in the second

watch, or come in the third watch, and find

[them] so, blessed are those servants.

LU-12:39 And this know, that if the goodman

of the house had known what hour the thief

would come, he would have watched, and not

have suffered his house to be broken through.



LU-12:40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the

Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think

not.

LU-12:41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord,

speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to

all?

LU-12:42 And the Lord said, Who then is that

faithful and wise steward, whom [his] lord

shall make ruler over his household, to give

[them their] portion of meat in due season?

LU-12:43 Blessed [is] that servant, whom his

lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

LU-12:44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he

will make him ruler over all that he hath.

LU-12:45 But and if that servant say in his

heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall

begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and

to eat and drink, and to be drunken;

LU-12:46 The lord of that servant will come

in a day when he looketh not for [him], and at

an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him

in sunder, and will appoint him his portion

with the unbelievers.

LU-12:47 And that servant, which knew his

lord's will, and prepared not [himself],

neither did according to his will, shall be

beaten with many [stripes].

LU-12:48 But he that knew not, and did commit

things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with

few [stripes]. For unto whomsoever much is

given, of him shall be much required: and to

whom men have committed much, of him they will

ask the more.

LU-12:49 I am come to send fire on the earth;

and what will I, if it be already kindled?

LU-12:50 But I have a baptism to be baptized

with; and how am I straitened till it be

accomplished!

LU-12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give

peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather

division:

LU-12:52 For from henceforth there shall be

five in one house divided, three against two,

and two against three.

LU-12:53 The father shall be divided against

the son, and the son against the father; the

mother against the daughter, and the daughter

against the mother; the mother in law against

her daughter in law, and the daughter in law

against her mother in law.

LU-12:54 And he said also to the people, When

ye see a cloud rise out of the west,

straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and

so it is.

LU-12:55 And when [ye see] the south wind

blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it

cometh to pass.

LU-12:56 [Ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the

face of the sky and of the earth; but how is

it that ye do not discern this time?

LU-12:57 Yea, and why even of yourselves

judge ye not what is right?

LU-12:58 When thou goest with thine adversary

to the magistrate, [as thou art] in the way,

give diligence that thou mayest be delivered

from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and

the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the

officer cast thee into prison.

LU-12:59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart

thence, till thou hast paid the very last

mite.

LU-13:1 There were present at that season

some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose

blood Pilate had mingled with their

sacrifices.

LU-13:2 And Jesus answering said unto them,

Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners

above all the Galilaeans, because they

suffered such things?

LU-13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye

repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

LU-13:4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the

tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye

that they were sinners above all men that

dwelt in Jerusalem?

LU-13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye

repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

LU-13:6 He spake also this parable; A certain

[man] had a fig tree planted in his vineyard;

and he came and sought fruit thereon, and

found none.

LU-13:7 Then said he unto the dresser of his

vineyard, Behold, these three years I come

seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none:

cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?

LU-13:8 And he answering said unto him, Lord,

let it alone this year also, till I shall dig

about it, and dung [it]:

LU-13:9 And if it bear fruit, [well]: and if

not, [then] after that thou shalt cut it down.



LU-13:10 And he was teaching in one of the

synagogues on the sabbath.

LU-13:11 And, behold, there was a woman which

had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and

was bowed together, and could in no wise lift

up [herself].

LU-13:12 And when Jesus saw her, he called

[her to him], and said unto her, Woman, thou

art loosed from thine infirmity.

LU-13:13 And he laid [his] hands on her: and

immediately she was made straight, and

glorified God.

LU-13:14 And the ruler of the synagogue

answered with indignation, because that Jesus

had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto

the people, There are six days in which men

ought to work: in them therefore come and be

healed, and not on the sabbath day.

LU-13:15 The Lord then answered him, and

said, [Thou] hypocrite, doth not each one of

you on the sabbath loose his ox or [his] ass

from the stall, and lead [him] away to

watering?

LU-13:16 And ought not this woman, being a

daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound,

lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this

bond on the sabbath day?

LU-13:17 And when he had said these things,

all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the

people rejoiced for all the glorious things

that were done by him.

LU-13:18 Then said he, Unto what is the

kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I

resemble it?

LU-13:19 It is like a grain of mustard seed,

which a man took, and cast into his garden;

and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the

fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.



LU-13:20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I

liken the kingdom of God?

LU-13:21 It is like leaven, which a woman

took and hid in three measures of meal, till

the whole was leavened.

LU-13:22 And he went through the cities and

villages, teaching, and journeying toward

Jerusalem.

LU-13:23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are

there few that be saved? And he said unto

them,

LU-13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait

gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to

enter in, and shall not be able.

LU-13:25 When once the master of the house is

risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye

begin to stand without, and to knock at the

door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he

shall answer and say unto you, I know you not

whence ye are:

LU-13:26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have

eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast

taught in our streets.

LU-13:27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know

you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye

workers of iniquity.

LU-13:28 There shall be weeping and gnashing

of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and

Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the

kingdom of God, and you [yourselves] thrust

out.

LU-13:29 And they shall come from the east,

and [from] the west, and from the north, and

[from] the south, and shall sit down in the

kingdom of God.

LU-13:30 And, behold, there are last which

shall be first, and there are first which

shall be last.

LU-13:31 The same day there came certain of

the Pharisees, saying unto him, Get thee out,

and depart hence: for Herod will kill thee.

LU-13:32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and

tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and

I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third

[day] I shall be perfected.

LU-13:33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and

to morrow, and the [day] following: for it

cannot be that a prophet perish out of

Jerusalem.

LU-13:34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which

killest the prophets, and stonest them that

are sent unto thee; how often would I have

gathered thy children together, as a hen [doth

gather] her brood under [her] wings, and ye

would not!

LU-13:35 Behold, your house is left unto you

desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall

not see me, until [the time] come when ye

shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the

name of the Lord.

LU-14:1 And it came to pass, as he went into

the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat

bread on the sabbath day, that they watched

him.

LU-14:2 And, behold, there was a certain man

before him which had the dropsy.

LU-14:3 And Jesus answering spake unto the

lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to

heal on the sabbath day?

LU-14:4 And they held their peace. And he

took [him], and healed him, and let him go;

LU-14:5 And answered them, saying, Which of

you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a

pit, and will not straightway pull him out on

the sabbath day?

LU-14:6 And they could not answer him again

to these things.

LU-14:7 And he put forth a parable to those

which were bidden, when he marked how they

chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them,

LU-14:8 When thou art bidden of any [man] to

a wedding, sit not down in the highest room;

lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden

of him;

LU-14:9 And he that bade thee and him come

and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou

begin with shame to take the lowest room.

LU-14:10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit

down in the lowest room; that when he that

bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee,

Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have

worship in the presence of them that sit at

meat with thee.

LU-14:11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall

be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall

be exalted.

LU-14:12 Then said he also to him that bade

him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper,

call not thy friends, nor thy brethren,

neither thy kinsmen, nor [thy] rich

neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and

a recompense be made thee.

LU-14:13 But when thou makest a feast, call

the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:

LU-14:14 And thou shalt be blessed; for they

cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be

recompensed at the resurrection of the just.

LU-14:15 And when one of them that sat at

meat with him heard these things, he said unto

him, Blessed [is] he that shall eat bread in

the kingdom of God.

LU-14:16 Then said he unto him, A certain man

made a great supper, and bade many:

LU-14:17 And sent his servant at supper time

to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all

things are now ready.

LU-14:18 And they all with one [consent]

began to make excuse. The first said unto him,

I have bought a piece of ground, and I must

needs go and see it: I pray thee have me

excused.

LU-14:19 And another said, I have bought five

yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray

thee have me excused.

LU-14:20 And another said, I have married a

wife, and therefore I cannot come.

LU-14:21 So that servant came, and showed his

lord these things. Then the master of the

house being angry said to his servant, Go out

quickly into the streets and lanes of the

city, and bring in hither the poor, and the

maimed, and the halt, and the blind.

LU-14:22 And the servant said, Lord, it is

done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is

room.

LU-14:23 And the lord said unto the servant,

Go out into the highways and hedges, and

compel [them] to come in, that my house may be

filled.

LU-14:24 For I say unto you, That none of

those men which were bidden shall taste of my

supper.

LU-14:25 And there went great multitudes with

him: and he turned, and said unto them,

LU-14:26 If any [man] come to me, and hate

not his father, and mother, and wife, and

children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and

his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

LU-14:27 And whosoever doth not bear his

cross, and come after me, cannot be my

disciple.

LU-14:28 For which of you, intending to build

a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth

the cost, whether he have [sufficient] to

finish [it]?

LU-14:29 Lest haply, after he hath laid the

foundation, and is not able to finish [it],

all that behold [it] begin to mock him,

LU-14:30 Saying, This man began to build, and

was not able to finish.

LU-14:31 Or what king, going to make war

against another king, sitteth not down first,

and consulteth whether he be able with ten

thousand to meet him that cometh against him

with twenty thousand?

LU-14:32 Or else, while the other is yet a

great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and

desireth conditions of peace.

LU-14:33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you

that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot

be my disciple.

LU-14:34 Salt [is] good: but if the salt have

lost his savour, wherewith shall it be

seasoned?

LU-14:35 It is neither fit for the land, nor

yet for the dunghill; [but] men cast it out.

He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

LU-15:1 Then drew near unto him all the

publicans and sinners for to hear him.

LU-15:2 And the Pharisees and scribes

murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners,

and eateth with them.

LU-15:3 And he spake this parable unto them,

saying,

LU-15:4 What man of you, having an hundred

sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave

the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go

after that which is lost, until he find it?

LU-15:5 And when he hath found [it], he

layeth [it] on his shoulders, rejoicing.

LU-15:6 And when he cometh home, he calleth

together [his] friends and neighbours, saying

unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found

my sheep which was lost.

LU-15:7 I say unto you, that likewise joy

shall be in heaven over one sinner that

repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just

persons, which need no repentance.

LU-15:8 Either what woman having ten pieces

of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not

light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek

diligently till she find [it]?

LU-15:9 And when she hath found [it], she

calleth [her] friends and [her] neighbours

together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have

found the piece which I had lost.

LU-15:10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is

joy in the presence of the angels of God over

one sinner that repenteth.

LU-15:11 And he said, A certain man had two

sons:

LU-15:12 And the younger of them said to

[his] father, Father, give me the portion of

goods that falleth [to me]. And he divided

unto them [his] living.

LU-15:13 And not many days after the younger

son gathered all together, and took his

journey into a far country, and there wasted

his substance with riotous living.

LU-15:14 And when he had spent all, there

arose a mighty famine in that land; and he

began to be in want.

LU-15:15 And he went and joined himself to a

citizen of that country; and he sent him into

his fields to feed swine.

LU-15:16 And he would fain have filled his

belly with the husks that the swine did eat:

and no man gave unto him.

LU-15:17 And when he came to himself, he

said, How many hired servants of my father's

have bread enough and to spare, and I perish

with hunger!

LU-15:18 I will arise and go to my father,

and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned

against heaven, and before thee,

LU-15:19 And am no more worthy to be called

thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.



LU-15:20 And he arose, and came to his

father. But when he was yet a great way off,

his father saw him, and had compassion, and

ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

LU-15:21 And the son said unto him, Father, I

have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight,

and am no more worthy to be called thy son.

LU-15:22 But the father said to his servants,

Bring forth the best robe, and put [it] on

him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on

[his] feet:

LU-15:23 And bring hither the fatted calf,

and kill [it]; and let us eat, and be merry:

LU-15:24 For this my son was dead, and is

alive again; he was lost, and is found. And

they began to be merry.

LU-15:25 Now his elder son was in the field:

and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he

heard music and dancing.

LU-15:26 And he called one of the servants,

and asked what these things meant.

LU-15:27 And he said unto him, Thy brother is

come; and thy father hath killed the fatted

calf, because he hath received him safe and

sound.

LU-15:28 And he was angry, and would not go

in: therefore came his father out, and

entreated him.

LU-15:29 And he answering said to [his]

father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee,

neither transgressed I at any time thy

commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a

kid, that I might make merry with my friends:



LU-15:30 But as soon as this thy son was

come, which hath devoured thy living with

harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted

calf.

LU-15:31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art

ever with me, and all that I have is thine.

LU-15:32 It was meet that we should make

merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was

dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is

found.

LU-16:1 And he said also unto his disciples,

There was a certain rich man, which had a

steward; and the same was accused unto him

that he had wasted his goods.

LU-16:2 And he called him, and said unto him,

How is it that I hear this of thee? give an

account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be

no longer steward.

LU-16:3 Then the steward said within himself,

What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from

me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am

ashamed.

LU-16:4 I am resolved what to do, that, when

I am put out of the stewardship, they may

receive me into their houses.

LU-16:5 So he called every one of his lord's

debtors [unto him], and said unto the first,

How much owest thou unto my lord?

LU-16:6 And he said, An hundred measures of

oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and

sit down quickly, and write fifty.

LU-16:7 Then said he to another, And how much

owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures

of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill,

and write fourscore.

LU-16:8 And the lord commended the unjust

steward, because he had done wisely: for the

children of this world are in their generation

wiser than the children of light.

LU-16:9 And I say unto you, Make to

yourselves friends of the mammon of

unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may

receive you into everlasting habitations.

LU-16:10 He that is faithful in that which is

least is faithful also in much: and he that is

unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

LU-16:11 If therefore ye have not been

faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will

commit to your trust the true [riches]?

LU-16:12 And if ye have not been faithful in

that which is another man's, who shall give

you that which is your own?

LU-16:13 No servant can serve two masters:

for either he will hate the one, and love the

other; or else he will hold to the one, and

despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and

mammon.

LU-16:14 And the Pharisees also, who were

covetous, heard all these things: and they

derided him.

LU-16:15 And he said unto them, Ye are they

which justify yourselves before men; but God

knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly

esteemed among men is abomination in the sight

of God.

LU-16:16 The law and the prophets [were]

until John: since that time the kingdom of God

is preached, and every man presseth into it.

LU-16:17 And it is easier for heaven and

earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to

fail.

LU-16:18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and

marrieth another, committeth adultery: and

whosoever marrieth her that is put away from

[her] husband committeth adultery.

LU-16:19 There was a certain rich man, which

was clothed in purple and fine linen, and

fared sumptuously every day:

LU-16:20 And there was a certain beggar named

Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of

sores,

LU-16:21 And desiring to be fed with the

crumbs which fell from the rich man's table:

moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

LU-16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar

died, and was carried by the angels into

Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and

was buried;

LU-16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes,

being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off,

and Lazarus in his bosom.

LU-16:24 And he cried and said, Father

Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus,

that he may dip the tip of his finger in

water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented

in this flame.

LU-16:25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that

thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good

things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but

now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

LU-16:26 And beside all this, between us and

you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they

which would pass from hence to you cannot;

neither can they pass to us, that [would come]

from thence.

LU-16:27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore,

father, that thou wouldest send him to my

father's house:

LU-16:28 For I have five brethren; that he

may testify unto them, lest they also come

into this place of torment.

LU-16:29 Abraham saith unto him, They have

Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

LU-16:30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham:

but if one went unto them from the dead, they

will repent.

LU-16:31 And he said unto him, If they hear

not Moses and the prophets, neither will they

be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

LU-17:1 Then said he unto the disciples, It

is impossible but that offences will come: but

woe [unto him], through whom they come!

LU-17:2 It were better for him that a

millstone were hanged about his neck, and he

cast into the sea, than that he should offend

one of these little ones.

LU-17:3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy

brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and

if he repent, forgive him.

LU-17:4 And if he trespass against thee seven

times in a day, and seven times in a day turn

again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt

forgive him.

LU-17:5 And the apostles said unto the Lord,

Increase our faith.

LU-17:6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith as

a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto

this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the

root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it

should obey you.

LU-17:7 But which of you, having a servant

plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him

by and by, when he is come from the field, Go

and sit down to meat?

LU-17:8 And will not rather say unto him,

Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird

thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and

drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and

drink?

LU-17:9 Doth he thank that servant because he

did the things that were commanded him? I trow

not.

LU-17:10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have

done all those things which are commanded you,

say, We are unprofitable servants: we have

done that which was our duty to do.

LU-17:11 And it came to pass, as he went to

Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of

Samaria and Galilee.

LU-17:12 And as he entered into a certain

village, there met him ten men that were

lepers, which stood afar off:

LU-17:13 And they lifted up [their] voices,

and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

LU-17:14 And when he saw [them], he said unto

them, Go show yourselves unto the priests. And

it came to pass, that, as they went, they were

cleansed.

LU-17:15 And one of them, when he saw that he

was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice

glorified God,

LU-17:16 And fell down on [his] face at his

feet, giving him thanks: and he was a

Samaritan.

LU-17:17 And Jesus answering said, Were there

not ten cleansed? but where [are] the nine?

LU-17:18 There are not found that returned to

give glory to God, save this stranger.

LU-17:19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy

way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

LU-17:20 And when he was demanded of the

Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should

come, he answered them and said, The kingdom

of God cometh not with observation:

LU-17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or,

lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is

within you.

LU-17:22 And he said unto the disciples, The

days will come, when ye shall desire to see

one of the days of the Son of man, and ye

shall not see [it].

LU-17:23 And they shall say to you, See here;

or, see there: go not after [them], nor follow

[them].

LU-17:24 For as the lightning, that

lighteneth out of the one [part] under heaven,

shineth unto the other [part] under heaven; so

shall also the Son of man be in his day.

LU-17:25 But first must he suffer many

things, and be rejected of this generation.

LU-17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so

shall it be also in the days of the Son of

man.

LU-17:27 They did eat, they drank, they

married wives, they were given in marriage,

until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

LU-17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days

of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought,

they sold, they planted, they builded;

LU-17:29 But the same day that Lot went out

of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from

heaven, and destroyed [them] all.

LU-17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day

when the Son of man is revealed.

LU-17:31 In that day, he which shall be upon

the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let

him not come down to take it away: and he that

is in the field, let him likewise not return

back.

LU-17:32 Remember Lot's wife.

LU-17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his

life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose

his life shall preserve it.

LU-17:34 I tell you, in that night there

shall be two [men] in one bed; the one shall

be taken, and the other shall be left.

LU-17:35 Two [women] shall be grinding

together; the one shall be taken, and the

other left.

LU-17:36 Two [men] shall be in the field; the

one shall be taken, and the other left.

LU-17:37 And they answered and said unto him,

Where, Lord? And he said unto them,

Wheresoever the body [is], thither will the

eagles be gathered together.

LU-18:1 And he spake a parable unto them [to

this end], that men ought always to pray, and

not to faint;

LU-18:2 Saying, There was in a city a judge,

which feared not God, neither regarded man:

LU-18:3 And there was a widow in that city;

and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of

mine adversary.

LU-18:4 And he would not for a while: but

afterward he said within himself, Though I

fear not God, nor regard man;

LU-18:5 Yet because this widow troubleth me,

I will avenge her, lest by her continual

coming she weary me.

LU-18:6 And the Lord said, Hear what the

unjust judge saith.

LU-18:7 And shall not God avenge his own

elect, which cry day and night unto him,

though he bear long with them?

LU-18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them

speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man

cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

LU-18:9 And he spake this parable unto

certain which trusted in themselves that they

were righteous, and despised others:

LU-18:10 Two men went up into the temple to

pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a

publican.

LU-18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus

with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not

as other men [are], extortioners, unjust,

adulterers, or even as this publican.

LU-18:12 I fast twice in the week, I give

tithes of all that I possess.

LU-18:13 And the publican, standing afar off,

would not lift up so much as [his] eyes unto

heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God

be merciful to me a sinner.

LU-18:14 I tell you, this man went down to

his house justified [rather] than the other:

for every one that exalteth himself shall be

abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be

exalted.

LU-18:15 And they brought unto him also

infants, that he would touch them: but when

[his] disciples saw [it], they rebuked them.

LU-18:16 But Jesus called them [unto him],

and said, Suffer little children to come unto

me, and forbid them not: for of such is the

kingdom of God.

LU-18:17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever

shall not receive the kingdom of God as a

little child shall in no wise enter therein.

LU-18:18 And a certain ruler asked him,

saying, Good Master, what shall I do to

inherit eternal life?

LU-18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest

thou me good? none [is] good, save one, [that

is], God.

LU-18:20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do

not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not

steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy

father and thy mother.

LU-18:21 And he said, All these have I kept

from my youth up.

LU-18:22 Now when Jesus heard these things,

he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing:

sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto

the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in

heaven: and come, follow me.

LU-18:23 And when he heard this, he was very

sorrowful: for he was very rich.

LU-18:24 And when Jesus saw that he was very

sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that

have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

LU-18:25 For it is easier for a camel to go

through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to

enter into the kingdom of God.

LU-18:26 And they that heard [it] said, Who

then can be saved?

LU-18:27 And he said, The things which are

impossible with men are possible with God.

LU-18:28 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left

all, and followed thee.

LU-18:29 And he said unto them, Verily I say

unto you, There is no man that hath left

house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or

children, for the kingdom of God's sake,

LU-18:30 Who shall not receive manifold more

in this present time, and in the world to come

life everlasting.

LU-18:31 Then he took [unto him] the twelve,

and said unto them, Behold, we go up to

Jerusalem, and all things that are written by

the prophets concerning the Son of man shall

be accomplished.

LU-18:32 For he shall be delivered unto the

Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully

entreated, and spitted on:

LU-18:33 And they shall scourge [him], and

put him to death: and the third day he shall

rise again.

LU-18:34 And they understood none of these

things: and this saying was hid from them,

neither knew they the things which were

spoken.

LU-18:35 And it came to pass, that as he was

come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man

sat by the way side begging:

LU-18:36 And hearing the multitude pass by,

he asked what it meant.

LU-18:37 And they told him, that Jesus of

Nazareth passeth by.

LU-18:38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, [thou]

son of David, have mercy on me.

LU-18:39 And they which went before rebuked

him, that he should hold his peace: but he

cried so much the more, [Thou] son of David,

have mercy on me.

LU-18:40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him

to be brought unto him: and when he was come

near, he asked him,

LU-18:41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall

do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may

receive my sight.

LU-18:42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy

sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

LU-18:43 And immediately he received his

sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and

all the people, when they saw [it], gave

praise unto God.

LU-19:1 And [Jesus] entered and passed

through Jericho.

LU-19:2 And, behold, [there was] a man named

Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the

publicans, and he was rich.

LU-19:3 And he sought to see Jesus who he

was; and could not for the press, because he

was little of stature.

LU-19:4 And he ran before, and climbed up

into a sycamore tree to see him: for he was to

pass that [way].

LU-19:5 And when Jesus came to the place, he

looked up, and saw him, and said unto him,

Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to

day I must abide at thy house.

LU-19:6 And he made haste, and came down, and

received him joyfully.

LU-19:7 And when they saw [it], they all

murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest

with a man that is a sinner.

LU-19:8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto

the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I

give to the poor; and if I have taken any

thing from any man by false accusation, I

restore [him] fourfold.

LU-19:9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is

salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he

also is a son of Abraham.

LU-19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek

and to save that which was lost.

LU-19:11 And as they heard these things, he

added and spake a parable, because he was nigh

to Jerusalem, and because they thought that

the kingdom of God should immediately appear.



LU-19:12 He said therefore, A certain

nobleman went into a far country to receive

for himself a kingdom, and to return.

LU-19:13 And he called his ten servants, and

delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them,

Occupy till I come.

LU-19:14 But his citizens hated him, and sent

a message after him, saying, We will not have

this [man] to reign over us.

LU-19:15 And it came to pass, that when he

was returned, having received the kingdom,

then he commanded these servants to be called

unto him, to whom he had given the money, that

he might know how much every man had gained by

trading.

LU-19:16 Then came the first, saying, Lord,

thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

LU-19:17 And he said unto him, Well, thou

good servant: because thou hast been faithful

in a very little, have thou authority over ten

cities.

LU-19:18 And the second came, saying, Lord,

thy pound hath gained five pounds.

LU-19:19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou

also over five cities.

LU-19:20 And another came, saying, Lord,

behold, [here is] thy pound, which I have kept

laid up in a napkin:

LU-19:21 For I feared thee, because thou art

an austere man: thou takest up that thou

layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst

not sow.

LU-19:22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine

own mouth will I judge thee, [thou] wicked

servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere

man, taking up that I laid not down, and

reaping that I did not sow:

LU-19:23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my

money into the bank, that at my coming I might

have required mine own with usury?

LU-19:24 And he said unto them that stood by,

Take from him the pound, and give [it] to him

that hath ten pounds.

LU-19:25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he

hath ten pounds.)

LU-19:26 For I say unto you, That unto every

one which hath shall be given; and from him

that hath not, even that he hath shall be

taken away from him.

LU-19:27 But those mine enemies, which would

not that I should reign over them, bring

hither, and slay [them] before me.

LU-19:28 And when he had thus spoken, he went

before, ascending up to Jerusalem.

LU-19:29 And it came to pass, when he was

come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the

mount called [the mount] of Olives, he sent

two of his disciples,

LU-19:30 Saying, Go ye into the village over

against [you]; in the which at your entering

ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never

man sat: loose him, and bring [him hither].

LU-19:31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye

loose [him]? thus shall ye say unto him,

Because the Lord hath need of him.

LU-19:32 And they that were sent went their

way, and found even as he had said unto them.



LU-19:33 And as they were loosing the colt,

the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose

ye the colt?

LU-19:34 And they said, The Lord hath need of

him.

LU-19:35 And they brought him to Jesus: and

they cast their garments upon the colt, and

they set Jesus thereon.

LU-19:36 And as he went, they spread their

clothes in the way.

LU-19:37 And when he was come nigh, even now

at the descent of the mount of Olives, the

whole multitude of the disciples began to

rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for

all the mighty works that they had seen;

LU-19:38 Saying, Blessed [be] the King that

cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in

heaven, and glory in the highest.

LU-19:39 And some of the Pharisees from among

the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke

thy disciples.

LU-19:40 And he answered and said unto them,

I tell you that, if these should hold their

peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

LU-19:41 And when he was come near, he beheld

the city, and wept over it,

LU-19:42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even

thou, at least in this thy day, the things

[which belong] unto thy peace! but now they

are hid from thine eyes.

LU-19:43 For the days shall come upon thee,

that thine enemies shall cast a trench about

thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in

on every side,

LU-19:44 And shall lay thee even with the

ground, and thy children within thee; and they

shall not leave in thee one stone upon

another; because thou knewest not the time of

thy visitation.

LU-19:45 And he went into the temple, and

began to cast out them that sold therein, and

them that bought;

LU-19:46 Saying unto them, It is written, My

house is the house of prayer: but ye have made

it a den of thieves.

LU-19:47 And he taught daily in the temple.

But the chief priests and the scribes and the

chief of the people sought to destroy him,

LU-19:48 And could not find what they might

do: for all the people were very attentive to

hear him.

LU-20:1 And it came to pass, [that] on one of

those days, as he taught the people in the

temple, and preached the gospel, the chief

priests and the scribes came upon [him] with

the elders,

LU-20:2 And spake unto him, saying, Tell us,

by what authority doest thou these things? or

who is he that gave thee this authority?

LU-20:3 And he answered and said unto them, I

will also ask you one thing; and answer me:

LU-20:4 The baptism of John, was it from

heaven, or of men?

LU-20:5 And they reasoned with themselves,

saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will

say, Why then believed ye him not?

LU-20:6 But and if we say, Of men; all the

people will stone us: for they be persuaded

that John was a prophet.

LU-20:7 And they answered, that they could

not tell whence [it was].

LU-20:8 And Jesus said unto them, Neither

tell I you by what authority I do these

things.

LU-20:9 Then began he to speak to the people

this parable; A certain man planted a

vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and

went into a far country for a long time.

LU-20:10 And at the season he sent a servant

to the husbandmen, that they should give him

of the fruit of the vineyard: but the

husbandmen beat him, and sent [him] away

empty.

LU-20:11 And again he sent another servant:

and they beat him also, and entreated [him]

shamefully, and sent [him] away empty.

LU-20:12 And again he sent a third: and they

wounded him also, and cast [him] out.

LU-20:13 Then said the lord of the vineyard,

What shall I do? I will send my beloved son:

it may be they will reverence [him] when they

see him.

LU-20:14 But when the husbandmen saw him,

they reasoned among themselves, saying, This

is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the

inheritance may be ours.

LU-20:15 So they cast him out of the

vineyard, and killed [him]. What therefore

shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?

LU-20:16 He shall come and destroy these

husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to

others. And when they heard [it], they said,

God forbid.

LU-20:17 And he beheld them, and said, What

is this then that is written, The stone which

the builders rejected, the same is become the

head of the corner?

LU-20:18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone

shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall

fall, it will grind him to powder.

LU-20:19 And the chief priests and the

scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on

him; and they feared the people: for they

perceived that he had spoken this parable

against them.

LU-20:20 And they watched [him], and sent

forth spies, which should feign themselves

just men, that they might take hold of his

words, that so they might deliver him unto the

power and authority of the governor.

LU-20:21 And they asked him, saying, Master,

we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly,

neither acceptest thou the person [of any],

but teachest the way of God truly:

LU-20:22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute

unto Caesar, or no?

LU-20:23 But he perceived their craftiness,

and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?

LU-20:24 Show me a penny. Whose image and

superscription hath it? They answered and

said, Caesar's.

LU-20:25 And he said unto them, Render

therefore unto Caesar the things which be

Caesar's, and unto God the things which be

God's.

LU-20:26 And they could not take hold of his

words before the people: and they marvelled at

his answer, and held their peace.

LU-20:27 Then came to [him] certain of the

Sadducees, which deny that there is any

resurrection; and they asked him,

LU-20:28 Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us,

If any man's brother die, having a wife, and

he die without children, that his brother

should take his wife, and raise up seed unto

his brother.

LU-20:29 There were therefore seven brethren:

and the first took a wife, and died without

children.

LU-20:30 And the second took her to wife, and

he died childless.

LU-20:31 And the third took her; and in like

manner the seven also: and they left no

children, and died.

LU-20:32 Last of all the woman died also.

LU-20:33 Therefore in the resurrection whose

wife of them is she? for seven had her to

wife.

LU-20:34 And Jesus answering said unto them,

The children of this world marry, and are

given in marriage:

LU-20:35 But they which shall be accounted

worthy to obtain that world, and the

resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor

are given in marriage:

LU-20:36 Neither can they die any more: for

they are equal unto the angels; and are the

children of God, being the children of the

resurrection.

LU-20:37 Now that the dead are raised, even

Moses showed at the bush, when he calleth the

Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac,

and the God of Jacob.

LU-20:38 For he is not a God of the dead, but

of the living: for all live unto him.

LU-20:39 Then certain of the scribes

answering said, Master, thou hast well said.

LU-20:40 And after that they durst not ask

him any [question at all].

LU-20:41 And he said unto them, How say they

that Christ is David's son?

LU-20:42 And David himself saith in the book

of Psalms, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit

thou on my right hand,

LU-20:43 Till I make thine enemies thy

footstool.

LU-20:44 David therefore calleth him Lord,

how is he then his son?

LU-20:45 Then in the audience of all the

people he said unto his disciples,

LU-20:46 Beware of the scribes, which desire

to walk in long robes, and love greetings in

the markets, and the highest seats in the

synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;

LU-20:47 Which devour widows' houses, and for

a show make long prayers: the same shall

receive greater damnation.

LU-21:1 And he looked up, and saw the rich

men casting their gifts into the treasury.

LU-21:2 And he saw also a certain poor widow

casting in thither two mites.

LU-21:3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto

you, that this poor widow hath cast in more

than they all:

LU-21:4 For all these have of their abundance

cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of

her penury hath cast in all the living that

she had.

LU-21:5 And as some spake of the temple, how

it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts,

he said,

LU-21:6 [As for] these things which ye

behold, the days will come, in the which there

shall not be left one stone upon another, that

shall not be thrown down.

LU-21:7 And they asked him, saying, Master,

but when shall these things be? and what sign

[will there be] when these things shall come

to pass?

LU-21:8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not

deceived: for many shall come in my name,

saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth

near: go ye not therefore after them.

LU-21:9 But when ye shall hear of wars and

commotions, be not terrified: for these things

must first come to pass; but the end [is] not

by and by.

LU-21:10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall

rise against nation, and kingdom against

kingdom:

LU-21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in

divers places, and famines, and pestilences;

and fearful sights and great signs shall there

be from heaven.

LU-21:12 But before all these, they shall lay

their hands on you, and persecute [you],

delivering [you] up to the synagogues, and

into prisons, being brought before kings and

rulers for my name's sake.

LU-21:13 And it shall turn to you for a

testimony.

LU-21:14 Settle [it] therefore in your

hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall

answer:

LU-21:15 For I will give you a mouth and

wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not

be able to gainsay nor resist.

LU-21:16 And ye shall be betrayed both by

parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and

friends; and [some] of you shall they cause to

be put to death.

LU-21:17 And ye shall be hated of all [men]

for my name's sake.

LU-21:18 But there shall not an hair of your

head perish.

LU-21:19 In your patience possess ye your

souls.

LU-21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem

compassed with armies, then know that the

desolation thereof is nigh.

LU-21:21 Then let them which are in Judaea

flee to the mountains; and let them which are

in the midst of it depart out; and let not

them that are in the countries enter

thereinto.

LU-21:22 For these be the days of vengeance,

that all things which are written may be

fulfilled.

LU-21:23 But woe unto them that are with

child, and to them that give suck, in those

days! for there shall be great distress in the

land, and wrath upon this people.

LU-21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of

the sword, and shall be led away captive into

all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden

down of the Gentiles, until the times of the

Gentiles be fulfilled.

LU-21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun,

and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon

the earth distress of nations, with

perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

LU-21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear,

and for looking after those things which are

coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven

shall be shaken.

LU-21:27 And then shall they see the Son of

man coming in a cloud with power and great

glory.

LU-21:28 And when these things begin to come

to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads;

for your redemption draweth nigh.

LU-21:29 And he spake to them a parable;

Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;

LU-21:30 When they now shoot forth, ye see

and know of your own selves that summer is now

nigh at hand.

LU-21:31 So likewise ye, when ye see these

things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom

of God is nigh at hand.

LU-21:32 Verily I say unto you, This

generation shall not pass away, till all be

fulfilled.

LU-21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away:

but my words shall not pass away.

LU-21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at

any time your hearts be overcharged with

surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this

life, and [so] that day come upon you

unawares.

LU-21:35 For as a snare shall it come on all

them that dwell on the face of the whole

earth.

LU-21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always,

that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all

these things that shall come to pass, and to

stand before the Son of man.

LU-21:37 And in the day time he was teaching

in the temple; and at night he went out, and

abode in the mount that is called [the mount]

of Olives.

LU-21:38 And all the people came early in the

morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.



LU-22:1 Now the feast of unleavened bread

drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

LU-22:2 And the chief priests and scribes

sought how they might kill him; for they

feared the people.

LU-22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas

surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the

twelve.

LU-22:4 And he went his way, and communed

with the chief priests and captains, how he

might betray him unto them.

LU-22:5 And they were glad, and covenanted to

give him money.

LU-22:6 And he promised, and sought

opportunity to betray him unto them in the

absence of the multitude.

LU-22:7 Then came the day of unleavened

bread, when the passover must be killed.

LU-22:8 And he sent Peter and John, saying,

Go and prepare us the passover, that we may

eat.

LU-22:9 And they said unto him, Where wilt

thou that we prepare?

LU-22:10 And he said unto them, Behold, when

ye are entered into the city, there shall a

man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water;

follow him into the house where he entereth

in.

LU-22:11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of

the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where

is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the

passover with my disciples?

LU-22:12 And he shall show you a large upper

room furnished: there make ready.

LU-22:13 And they went, and found as he had

said unto them: and they made ready the

passover.

LU-22:14 And when the hour was come, he sat

down, and the twelve apostles with him.

LU-22:15 And he said unto them, With desire I

have desired to eat this passover with you

before I suffer:

LU-22:16 For I say unto you, I will not any

more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the

kingdom of God.

LU-22:17 And he took the cup, and gave

thanks, and said, Take this, and divide [it]

among yourselves:

LU-22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink

of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of

God shall come.

LU-22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks,

and brake [it], and gave unto them, saying,

This is my body which is given for you: this

do in remembrance of me.

LU-22:20 Likewise also the cup after supper,

saying, This cup [is] the new testament in my

blood, which is shed for you.

LU-22:21 But, behold, the hand of him that

betrayeth me [is] with me on the table.

LU-22:22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as

it was determined: but woe unto that man by

whom he is betrayed!

LU-22:23 And they began to inquire among

themselves, which of them it was that should

do this thing.

LU-22:24 And there was also a strife among

them, which of them should be accounted the

greatest.

LU-22:25 And he said unto them, The kings of

the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and

they that exercise authority upon them are

called benefactors.

LU-22:26 But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he

that is greatest among you, let him be as the

younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth

serve.

LU-22:27 For whether [is] greater, he that

sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? [is] not

he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as

he that serveth.

LU-22:28 Ye are they which have continued

with me in my temptations.

LU-22:29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as

my Father hath appointed unto me;

LU-22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my

table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones

judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

LU-22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon,

behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that

he may sift [you] as wheat:

LU-22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy

faith fail not: and when thou art converted,

strengthen thy brethren.

LU-22:33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am

ready to go with thee, both into prison, and

to death.

LU-22:34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the

cock shall not crow this day, before that thou

shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

LU-22:35 And he said unto them, When I sent

you without purse, and scrip, and shoes,

lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

LU-22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he

that hath a purse, let him take [it], and

likewise [his] scrip: and he that hath no

sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.



LU-22:37 For I say unto you, that this that

is written must yet be accomplished in me, And

he was reckoned among the transgressors: for

the things concerning me have an end.

LU-22:38 And they said, Lord, behold, here

[are] two swords. And he said unto them, It is

enough.

LU-22:39 And he came out, and went, as he was

wont, to the mount of Olives; and his

disciples also followed him.

LU-22:40 And when he was at the place, he

said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into

temptation.

LU-22:41 And he was withdrawn from them about

a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,



LU-22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing,

remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my

will, but thine, be done.

LU-22:43 And there appeared an angel unto him

from heaven, strengthening him.

LU-22:44 And being in an agony he prayed more

earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great

drops of blood falling down to the ground.

LU-22:45 And when he rose up from prayer, and

was come to his disciples, he found them

sleeping for sorrow,

LU-22:46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye?

rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.



LU-22:47 And while he yet spake, behold a

multitude, and he that was called Judas, one

of the twelve, went before them, and drew near

unto Jesus to kiss him.

LU-22:48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas,

betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

LU-22:49 When they which were about him saw

what would follow, they said unto him, Lord,

shall we smite with the sword?

LU-22:50 And one of them smote the servant of

the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

LU-22:51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer

ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and

healed him.

LU-22:52 Then Jesus said unto the chief

priests, and captains of the temple, and the

elders, which were come to him, Be ye come

out, as against a thief, with swords and

staves?

LU-22:53 When I was daily with you in the

temple, ye stretched forth no hands against

me: but this is your hour, and the power of

darkness.

LU-22:54 Then took they him, and led [him],

and brought him into the high priest's house.

And Peter followed afar off.

LU-22:55 And when they had kindled a fire in

the midst of the hall, and were set down

together, Peter sat down among them.

LU-22:56 But a certain maid beheld him as he

sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon

him, and said, This man was also with him.

LU-22:57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I

know him not.

LU-22:58 And after a little while another saw

him, and said, Thou art also of them. And

Peter said, Man, I am not.

LU-22:59 And about the space of one hour

after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of

a truth this [fellow] also was with him: for

he is a Galilaean.

LU-22:60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what

thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet

spake, the cock crew.

LU-22:61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon

Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the

Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the

cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

LU-22:62 And Peter went out, and wept

bitterly.

LU-22:63 And the men that held Jesus mocked

him, and smote [him].

LU-22:64 And when they had blindfolded him,

they struck him on the face, and asked him,

saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

LU-22:65 And many other things blasphemously

spake they against him.

LU-22:66 And as soon as it was day, the

elders of the people and the chief priests and

the scribes came together, and led him into

their council, saying,

LU-22:67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he

said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not

believe:

LU-22:68 And if I also ask [you], ye will not

answer me, nor let [me] go.

LU-22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit

on the right hand of the power of God.

LU-22:70 Then said they all, Art thou then

the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say

that I am.

LU-22:71 And they said, What need we any

further witness? for we ourselves have heard

of his own mouth.

LU-23:1 And the whole multitude of them

arose, and led him unto Pilate.

LU-23:2 And they began to accuse him, saying,

We found this [fellow] perverting the nation,

and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar,

saying that he himself is Christ a King.

LU-23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art

thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him

and said, Thou sayest [it].

LU-23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests

and [to] the people, I find no fault in this

man.

LU-23:5 And they were the more fierce,

saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching

throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee

to this place.

LU-23:6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he

asked whether the man were a Galilaean.

LU-23:7 And as soon as he knew that he

belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent

him to Herod, who himself also was at

Jerusalem at that time.

LU-23:8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was

exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him

of a long [season], because he had heard many

things of him; and he hoped to have seen some

miracle done by him.

LU-23:9 Then he questioned with him in many

words; but he answered him nothing.

LU-23:10 And the chief priests and scribes

stood and vehemently accused him.

LU-23:11 And Herod with his men of war set

him at nought, and mocked [him], and arrayed

him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to

Pilate.

LU-23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod

were made friends together: for before they

were at enmity between themselves.

LU-23:13 And Pilate, when he had called

together the chief priests and the rulers and

the people,

LU-23:14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this

man unto me, as one that perverteth the

people: and, behold, I, having examined [him]

before you, have found no fault in this man

touching those things whereof ye accuse him:

LU-23:15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to

him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done

unto him.

LU-23:16 I will therefore chastise him, and

release [him].

LU-23:17 (For of necessity he must release

one unto them at the feast.)

LU-23:18 And they cried out all at once,

saying, Away with this [man], and release unto

us Barabbas:

LU-23:19 (Who for a certain sedition made in

the city, and for murder, was cast into

prison.)

LU-23:20 Pilate therefore, willing to release

Jesus, spake again to them.

LU-23:21 But they cried, saying, Crucify

[him], crucify him.

LU-23:22 And he said unto them the third

time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have

found no cause of death in him: I will

therefore chastise him, and let [him] go.

LU-23:23 And they were instant with loud

voices, requiring that he might be crucified.

And the voices of them and of the chief

priests prevailed.

LU-23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that it

should be as they required.

LU-23:25 And he released unto them him that

for sedition and murder was cast into prison,

whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus

to their will.

LU-23:26 And as they led him away, they laid

hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of

the country, and on him they laid the cross,

that he might bear [it] after Jesus.

LU-23:27 And there followed him a great

company of people, and of women, which also

bewailed and lamented him.

LU-23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said,

Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but

weep for yourselves, and for your children.

LU-23:29 For, behold, the days are coming, in

the which they shall say, Blessed [are] the

barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the

paps which never gave suck.

LU-23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the

mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover

us.

LU-23:31 For if they do these things in a

green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

LU-23:32 And there were also two other,

malefactors, led with him to be put to death.



LU-23:33 And when they were come to the

place, which is called Calvary, there they

crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the

right hand, and the other on the left.

LU-23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive

them; for they know not what they do. And they

parted his raiment, and cast lots.

LU-23:35 And the people stood beholding. And

the rulers also with them derided [him],

saying, He saved others; let him save himself,

if he be Christ, the chosen of God.

LU-23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him,

coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

LU-23:37 And saying, If thou be the king of

the Jews, save thyself.

LU-23:38 And a superscription also was

written over him in letters of Greek, and

Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE

JEWS.

LU-23:39 And one of the malefactors which

were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be

Christ, save thyself and us.

LU-23:40 But the other answering rebuked him,

saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou

art in the same condemnation?

LU-23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive

the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath

done nothing amiss.

LU-23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord,

remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.



LU-23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I

say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in

paradise.

LU-23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and

there was a darkness over all the earth until

the ninth hour.

LU-23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the

veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

LU-23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud

voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I

commend my spirit: and having said thus, he

gave up the ghost.

LU-23:47 Now when the centurion saw what was

done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this

was a righteous man.

LU-23:48 And all the people that came

together to that sight, beholding the things

which were done, smote their breasts, and

returned.

LU-23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the

women that followed him from Galilee, stood

afar off, beholding these things.

LU-23:50 And, behold, [there was] a man named

Joseph, a counsellor; [and he was] a good man,

and a just:

LU-23:51 (The same had not consented to the

counsel and deed of them;) [he was] of

Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also

himself waited for the kingdom of God.

LU-23:52 This [man] went unto Pilate, and

begged the body of Jesus.

LU-23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it

in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was

hewn in stone, wherein never man before was

laid.

LU-23:54 And that day was the preparation,

and the sabbath drew on.

LU-23:55 And the women also, which came with

him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld

the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

LU-23:56 And they returned, and prepared

spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath

day according to the commandment.

LU-24:1 Now upon the first [day] of the week,

very early in the morning, they came unto the

sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had

prepared, and certain [others] with them.

LU-24:2 And they found the stone rolled away

from the sepulchre.

LU-24:3 And they entered in, and found not

the body of the Lord Jesus.

LU-24:4 And it came to pass, as they were

much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men

stood by them in shining garments:

LU-24:5 And as they were afraid, and bowed

down [their] faces to the earth, they said

unto them, Why seek ye the living among the

dead?

LU-24:6 He is not here, but is risen:

remember how he spake unto you when he was yet

in Galilee,

LU-24:7 Saying, The Son of man must be

delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be

crucified, and the third day rise again.

LU-24:8 And they remembered his words,

LU-24:9 And returned from the sepulchre, and

told all these things unto the eleven, and to

all the rest.

LU-24:10 It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna,

and Mary [the mother] of James, and other

[women that were] with them, which told these

things unto the apostles.

LU-24:11 And their words seemed to them as

idle tales, and they believed them not.

LU-24:12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the

sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the

linen clothes laid by themselves, and

departed, wondering in himself at that which

was come to pass.

LU-24:13 And, behold, two of them went that

same day to a village called Emmaus, which was

from Jerusalem [about] threescore furlongs.

LU-24:14 And they talked together of all

these things which had happened.

LU-24:15 And it came to pass, that, while

they communed [together] and reasoned, Jesus

himself drew near, and went with them.

LU-24:16 But their eyes were holden that they

should not know him.

LU-24:17 And he said unto them, What manner

of communications [are] these that ye have one

to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

LU-24:18 And the one of them, whose name was

Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou

only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not

known the things which are come to pass there

in these days?

LU-24:19 And he said unto them, What things?

And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of

Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed

and word before God and all the people:

LU-24:20 And how the chief priests and our

rulers delivered him to be condemned to death,

and have crucified him.

LU-24:21 But we trusted that it had been he

which should have redeemed Israel: and beside

all this, to day is the third day since these

things were done.

LU-24:22 Yea, and certain women also of our

company made us astonished, which were early

at the sepulchre;

LU-24:23 And when they found not his body,

they came, saying, that they had also seen a

vision of angels, which said that he was

alive.

LU-24:24 And certain of them which were with

us went to the sepulchre, and found [it] even

so as the women had said: but him they saw

not.

LU-24:25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and

slow of heart to believe all that the prophets

have spoken:

LU-24:26 Ought not Christ to have suffered

these things, and to enter into his glory?

LU-24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the

prophets, he expounded unto them in all the

scriptures the things concerning himself.

LU-24:28 And they drew nigh unto the village,

whither they went: and he made as though he

would have gone further.

LU-24:29 But they constrained him, saying,

Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and

the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry

with them.

LU-24:30 And it came to pass, as he sat at

meat with them, he took bread, and blessed

[it], and brake, and gave to them.

LU-24:31 And their eyes were opened, and they

knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.



LU-24:32 And they said one to another, Did

not our heart burn within us, while he talked

with us by the way, and while he opened to us

the scriptures?

LU-24:33 And they rose up the same hour, and

returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven

gathered together, and them that were with

them,

LU-24:34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed,

and hath appeared to Simon.

LU-24:35 And they told what things [were

done] in the way, and how he was known of them

in breaking of bread.

LU-24:36 And as they thus spake, Jesus

himself stood in the midst of them, and saith

unto them, Peace [be] unto you.

LU-24:37 But they were terrified and

affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a

spirit.

LU-24:38 And he said unto them, Why are ye

troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your

hearts?

LU-24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it

is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit

hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

LU-24:40 And when he had thus spoken, he

showed them [his] hands and [his] feet.

LU-24:41 And while they yet believed not for

joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye

here any meat?

LU-24:42 And they gave him a piece of a

broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

LU-24:43 And he took [it], and did eat before

them.

LU-24:44 And he said unto them, These [are]

the words which I spake unto you, while I was

yet with you, that all things must be

fulfilled, which were written in the law of

Moses, and [in] the prophets, and [in] the

psalms, concerning me.

LU-24:45 Then opened he their understanding,

that they might understand the scriptures,

LU-24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is

written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer,

and to rise from the dead the third day:

LU-24:47 And that repentance and remission of

sins should be preached in his name among all

nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

LU-24:48 And ye are witnesses of these

things.

LU-24:49 And, behold, I send the promise of

my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city

of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power

from on high.

LU-24:50 And he led them out as far as to

Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and

blessed them.

LU-24:51 And it came to pass, while he

blessed them, he was parted from them, and

carried up into heaven.

LU-24:52 And they worshipped him, and

returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

LU-24:53 And were continually in the temple,

praising and blessing God. Amen.
