1. The book <0976> of the generation <1078> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, the son <5207> of David < 1138>, the son <5207> of Abraham <11>.

2 Abraham <0011>begat <1080> Isaac <2464>; and Isaac <2464> begat <1080> Jacob <2384>; and Jacob <2384> begat <1080> Judas <2455> and his brethren < 0080>;

3 And Judas <2455> begat <1080> Phares <5329> and Zara <2196> of Thamar <2283>; and Phares <5329> begat <1080> Esrom <2074>; and Esrom <2074> begat < 1080> Aram <0689>;

4 And Aram <0689> begat <1080> Aminadab <0284> ; and Aminadab <0284> begat <1080> Naasson <3476>; and Naasson <3476> begat <1080> Salmon <4533>;

5 And Salmon <4533> begat <1080> Booz <1003> of Rachab <4477>; and Booz <1003> begat <1080> Obed < 5601> of Ruth <4503>; and Obed <5601> begat <1080> Jesse <2421>;

6 And Jesse <2421> begat <1080> David <1138> the king <0935>; and David <1138> the king <0935> begat <1080> Solomon <4672> of her [that had been the wife] of Urias <3774>;

7 And Solomon <4672> begat <1080> Roboam < 4497>; and Roboam <4497> begat <1080> Abia <0007>; and Abia <0007> begat <1080> Asa <0760>;

8 And Asa <0760> begat <1080> Josaphat <2498>; and Josaphat <2498> begat <1080> Joram <2496>; and Joram <2496> begat <1080> Ozias <3604>;

9 And Ozias <3604> begat <1080> Joatham <2488> ; and Joatham <2488> begat <1080> Achaz <0881>; and Achaz <0881> begat <1080> Ezekias <1478>;

10 And Ezekias <1478> begat <1080> Manasses < 3128>; and Manasses <3128> begat <1080> Amon <0300>; and Amon <0300> begat <1080> Josias <2502>;

11 And Josias <2502> begat <1080> Jechonias < 2423> and his brethren <0080>, about <1909> the time < 1909> they were carried <3350> away <3350> to Babylon < 0897>:

12 And after <3326> they were brought <3350> to Babylon <0897>, Jechonias <2423> begat <1080> Salathiel <4528>; and Salathiel <4528> begat <1080> Zorobabel < 2216>;

13 And Zorobabel <2216> begat <1080> Abiud < 10>; and Abiud <0010>begat <1080> Eliakim <1662>; and Eliakim <1662> begat <1080> Azor <0107>;

14 And Azor <0107> begat <1080> Sadoc <4524>; and Sadoc <4524> begat <1080> Achim <0885>; and Achim <0885> begat <1080> Eliud <1664>;

15 And Eliud <1664> begat <1080> Eleazar < 1648>; and Eleazar <1648> begat <1080> Matthan <3157>; and Matthan <3157> begat <1080> Jacob <2384>;

16 And Jacob <2384> begat <1080> Joseph <2501> the husband <0435> of Mary <3137>, of whom <3739> was born <1080> Jesus <2424>, who <3588> is called < 3004> Christ <5547>.

17 So <3767> all <3956> the generations <1074> from Abraham <0011>to David <1138> [are] fourteen <1180> generations <1074>; and from David <1138> until <2193> the carrying <3350> away <3350> into <3350> Babylon < 0897> [are] fourteen <1180> generations <1074>; and from the carrying <3350> away <3350> into <3350> Babylon < 0897> unto Christ <5547> [are] fourteen <1180> generations <1074>.

18. Now <1161> the birth <1083> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> was on <3779> this <3779> wise < 3779>: When as his mother <3384> Mary <3137> was espoused <3423> to Joseph <2501>, before <2228> they came < 4905> together <4905>, she was found <2147> with child < 1064> of the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>.

19 Then <1161> Joseph <2501> her husband < 0435>, being <5607> a just <1342> [man], and not willing <2309> to make <3856> her a publick <3856> example < 3856>, was minded <1014> to put <0630> her away <0630> privily <2977>.

20 But while he thought <1760> on <1760> these < 5023> things, behold <2400>, the angel <0032> of the Lord <2962> appeared <5316> unto him in a dream <3677>, saying <3004>, Joseph <2501>, thou son <5207> of David <1138>, fear <5399> not to take <3880> unto thee Mary <3137> thy wife <1135>: for that which is conceived < 1080> in her is of the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>.

21 And she shall bring <5088> forth <5088> a son <5207>, and thou shalt call <2564> his name <3686> JESUS <2424>: for he shall save <4982> his people <2992> from their sins <0266>.

22 Now <1161> all <3650> this <5124> was done <1096>, that it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> of the Lord <2962> by the prophet < 4396>, saying <3004>,

23 Behold <2400>, a virgin <3933> shall be with child <1064>, and shall bring <5088> forth <5088> a son <5207>, and they shall call <2564> his name <3686> Emmanuel <1694>, which <3739> being interpreted <3177> is, God <2316> with us.

24 Then <1161> Joseph <2501> being raised < 1326> from sleep <5258> did <4160> as the angel <0032> of the Lord <2962> had bidden <4367> him, and took < 3880> unto him his wife <1135>:

25 And knew <1097> her not till <2193> she had brought <5088> forth <5088> her firstborn <4416> son < 5207>: and he called <2564> his name <3686> JESUS < 2424>.

Matthew 2

1. Now <1161> when Jesus <2424> was born <1080> in Bethlehem <0965> of Judaea <2449> in the days <2250> of Herod <2264> the king <0935>, behold <2400>, there came <3854> wise <3097> men from the east <0395> to Jerusalem <2414>,

2 Saying <3004>, Where <4226> is he that is born <5088> King <0935> of the Jews <2453>? for we have seen <1492> his star <0792> in the east <0395>, and are come <2064> to worship <4352> him.

3 When Herod <2264> the king <0935> had heard < 0191> [these things], he was troubled <5015>, and all <3956> Jerusalem <2414> with him.

4 And when he had gathered <4863> all <3956> the chief <0749> priests <0749> and scribes <1122> of the people <2992> together <4863>, he demanded <4441> of them where <4226> Christ <5547> should be born <1080>.

5 And they said <2036> unto him, In Bethlehem <0965> of Judaea <2449>: for thus <3779> it is written <1125> by the prophet <4396>,

6 And thou Bethlehem <0965>, [in] the land <1093> of Juda <2455>, art <1488> not the least <1646> among <1722> the princes <2232> of Juda <2455>: for out of thee shall come <1831> a Governor <2233>, that shall rule < 4165> my people <2992> Israel <2474>.

7 Then <5119> Herod <2264>, when he had privily < 2977> called <2564> the wise <3097> men, enquired < 0198> of them diligently what <3588> time <5550> the star <0792> appeared <5316>.

8 And he sent <3992> them to Bethlehem <0965>, and said <2036>, Go <4198> and search <1833> diligently < 0199> for the young <3813> child <3813>; and when < 1875> ye have found <2147> [him], bring <0518> me word < 0518> again <0518>, that I may come <2064> and worship < 4352> him also <2504>.

9. When they had heard <0191> the king <0935>, they departed <4198>; and, lo <2400>, the star <0792>, which <3739> they saw <1492> in the east <0395>, went < 4254> before <4254> them, till <2193> it came <2064> and stood <2476> over <1883> where <3757> the young < 3813> child <3813> was.

10 When they saw <1492> the star <0792>, they rejoiced <5463> with exceeding <4970> great <3173> joy <5479>.

11 And when they were come <2064> into <1519> the house <3614>, they saw <2147> the young <3813> child < 3813> with Mary <3137> his mother <3384>, and fell < 4098> down <4098>, and worshipped <4352> him: and when they had opened <0455> their treasures <2344>, they presented < 4374> unto him gifts <1435>; gold <5557>, and frankincense <3030>, and myrrh <4666>.

12 And being warned <5537> of God in a dream <3677> that they should not return <0344> to Herod <2264>, they departed <0402> into <1519> their own country <5561> another <0243> way <3598>.

13. And when they were departed <0402>, behold <2400> , the angel <0032> of the Lord <2962> appeareth <5316> to Joseph <2501> in a dream <3677>, saying <3004>, Arise <1453>, and take <3880> the young <3813> child < 3813> and his mother <3384>, and flee <5343> into < 1519> Egypt <0125>, and be thou there <1563> until < 2193> I bring <2036> thee word <2036>: for Herod < 2264> will <3195> seek <2212> the young <3813> child <3813> to destroy <0622> him.

14 When he arose <1453>, he took <3880> the young <3813> child <3813> and his mother <3384> by night < 3571>, and departed <0402> into <1519> Egypt <0125>:

15 And was there <1563> until <2193> the death < 5054> of Herod <2264>: that it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> of the Lord <2962> by the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>, Out of Egypt <0125> have I called <2564> my son <5207>.

16. Then <5119> Herod <2264>, when he saw < 1492> that he was mocked <1702> of the wise <3097> men, was exceeding <3029> wroth <2373>, and sent <0649> forth < 0649>, and slew <0337> all <3956> the children <3816> that were in Bethlehem <0965>, and in all <3956> the coasts <3725> thereof <0846>, from two <1332> years <1332> old <1332> and under <2736>, according <2596> to the time <5550> which <3739> he had diligently enquired < 0198> of the wise <3097> men.

17 Then <5119> was fulfilled <4137> that which < 3588> was spoken <4483> by Jeremy <2408> the prophet < 4396>, saying <3004>,

18 In Rama <4471> was there a voice <5456> heard <0191>, lamentation <2355>, and weeping <2805>, and great <4183> mourning <3602>, Rachel <4478> weeping < 2799> [for] her children <5043>, and would <2309> not be comforted <3870>, because <3754> they are not.

19. But when Herod <2264> was dead <5053>, behold <2400>, an angel <0032> of the Lord <2962> appeareth < 5316> in a dream <3677> to Joseph <2501> in Egypt < 0125>,

20 Saying <3004>, Arise <1453>, and take < 3880> the young <3813> child <3813> and his mother < 3384>, and go <4198> into <1519> the land <1093> of Israel <2474>: for they are dead <2348> which <3588> sought <2212> the young <3813> child's <3813> life < 5590>.

21 And he arose <1453>, and took <3880> the young <3813> child <3813> and his mother <3384>, and came < 2064> into <1519> the land <1093> of Israel <2474>.

22 But when he heard <0191> that Archelaus <0745> did reign <0936> in Judaea <2449> in the room <0473> of his father <3962> Herod <2264>, he was afraid <5399> to go <0565> thither <1563>: notwithstanding, being warned < 5537> of God in a dream <3677>, he turned <0402> aside < 0402> into <1519> the parts of Galilee <1056>:

23 And he came <2064> and dwelt <2730> in a city <4172> called <3004> Nazareth <3478>: that it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> by the prophets <4396>, He shall be called <2564> a Nazarene < 3480>.

Matthew 3

1. In those <1565> days <2250> came <3854> John <2491> the Baptist <0910>, preaching <2784> in the wilderness <2048> of Judaea <2449>,

2 And saying <3004>, Repent <3340> ye: for the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is at <1448> hand < 1448>.

3 For this <3778> is he that was spoken <4483> of by the prophet <4396> Esaias <2268>, saying <3004>, The voice <5456> of one crying <0994> in the wilderness < 2048>, Prepare <2090> ye the way <3598> of the Lord < 2962>, make <4160> his paths <5147> straight <2117>.

4 And the same <0846> John <2491> had <2192> his raiment <1742> of camel's <2574> hair <2359>, and a leathern <1193> girdle <2223> about <4012> his loins < 3751>; and his meat <5160> was locusts <0200> and wild < 0066> honey <3192>.

5 Then <5119> went <1607> out to him Jerusalem < 2414>, and all <3956> Judaea <2449>, and all <3956> the region <4066> round <4066> about <4066> Jordan < 2446>,

6 And were baptized <0907> of him in Jordan <2446>, confessing <1843> their sins <0266>.

7. But when he saw <1492> many <4183> of the Pharisees <5330> and Sadducees <4523> come <2064> to his baptism <0908>, he said <2036> unto them, O generation < 1081> of vipers <2191>, who <5101> hath warned <5263> you to flee <5343> from the wrath <3709> to come <3195>?

8 Bring <4160> forth <4160> therefore <3767> fruits <2590> meet <0514> for repentance <3341>:

9 And think <1380> not to say <3004> within < 1722> yourselves <1438>, We have <2192> Abraham <0011> to [our] father <3962>: for I say <3004> unto you, that God <2316> is able <1410> of these <5130> stones <3037> to raise <1453> up children <5043> unto Abraham <11>.

10 And now <2236> also <2532> the axe <0513> is laid <2749> unto the root <4491> of the trees <1186>: therefore <3767> every <3956> tree <1186> which bringeth <4160> not forth <4160> good <2570> fruit <2590> is hewn <1581> down <1581>, and cast <0906> into < 1519> the fire <4442>.

11 I indeed <3303> baptize <0907> you with water <5204> unto repentance <3341>: but he that cometh <2064> after <3694> me is mightier <2478> than I, whose <3739> shoes <5266> I am <1510> not worthy <2425> to bear < 0941>: he shall baptize <0907> you with the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>, and [with] fire <4442>:

12 Whose <3739> fan <4425> [is] in his hand < 5495>, and he will <3195> throughly <1245> purge < 1245> his floor <0257>, and gather <4863> his wheat < 4621> into <1519> the garner <0596>; but he will < 3195> burn <2618> up the chaff <0892> with unquenchable < 0762> fire <4442>.

13. Then <5119> cometh <3854> Jesus <2424> from Galilee <1056> to Jordan <2446> unto John <2491>, to be baptized <0907> of him.

14 But John <2491> forbad <1254> him, saying < 3004>, I have <2192> need <5532> to be baptized <0907> of thee, and comest <2064> thou to me?

15 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said < 2036> unto him, Suffer <0863> [it to be so] now <0737>: for thus <3779> it becometh <4241> us to fulfil <4137> all <3956> righteousness <1343>. Then <5119> he suffered < 0863> him.

16 And Jesus <2424>, when he was baptized <0907>, went <0305> up straightway <2117> out of the water <5204> : and, lo <2400>, the heavens <3772> were opened <0455> unto him, and he saw <1492> the Spirit <4151> of God < 2316> descending <2597> like <5616> a dove <4058>, and lighting <2064> upon him:

17 And lo <2400> a voice <5456> from heaven < 3772>, saying <3004>, This <3778> is my beloved <0027> Son <5207>, in whom <3739> I am well <2106> pleased < 2106>.

Matthew 4

1. Then <5119> was Jesus <2424> led <0321> up of the Spirit <4151> into <1519> the wilderness <2048> to be tempted <3985> of the devil <1228>.

2 And when he had fasted <3522> forty <5062> days <2250> and forty <5062> nights <3571>, he was afterward <5305> an hungred <3983>.

3 And when the tempter <3985> came <4334> to him, he said <2036>, If <1487> thou be the Son <5207> of God <2316>, command <2036> that these <3778> stones < 3037> be made <1096> bread <0740>.

4 But he answered <0611> and said <2036>, It is written <1125>, Man <0444> shall not live <2198> by bread <0740> alone <3441>, but by every <3956> word < 4487> that proceedeth <1607> out of the mouth <4750> of God <2316>.

5 Then <5119> the devil <1228> taketh <3880> him up into <1519> the holy <0040> city <4172>, and setteth <2476> him on <1909> a pinnacle <4419> of the temple <2411>,

6 And saith <3004> unto him, If <1487> thou be the Son <5207> of God <2316>, cast <0906> thyself < 4572> down <2736>: for it is written <1125>, He shall give his angels <0032> charge <1781> concerning <4012> thee: and in [their] hands <5495> they shall bear <0142> thee up, lest <3379> at <3379> any <3379> time <3379> thou dash <4350> thy foot <4228> against <4314> a stone < 3037>.

7 Jesus <2424> said <5346> unto him, It is written <1125> again <3825>, Thou shalt not tempt <1598> the Lord <2962> thy God <2316>.

8 Again <3825>, the devil <1228> taketh <3880> him up into <1519> an exceeding <3029> high <5308> mountain <3735>, and sheweth <1166> him all <3956> the kingdoms <0932> of the world <2889>, and the glory <1391> of them;

9 And saith <3004> unto him, All <3956> these < 5023> things will <3195> I give <1325> thee, if <1437> thou wilt fall <4098> down <4098> and worship <4352> me.

10 Then <5119> saith <3004> Jesus <2424> unto him, Get <5217> thee hence <5217>, Satan <4567>: for it is written <1125>, Thou shalt worship <4352> the Lord < 2962> thy God <2316>, and him only <3441> shalt thou serve <3000>.

11 Then <5119> the devil <1228> leaveth <0863> him, and, behold <2400>, angels <0032> came <4334> and ministered <1247> unto him.

12. Now <1161> when Jesus <2424> had heard < 0191> that John <2491> was cast <3860> into prison < 3860>, he departed <0402> into <1519> Galilee <1056>;

13 And leaving <2641> Nazareth <3478>, he came < 2064> and dwelt <2730> in Capernaum <2584>, which < 3588> is upon the sea <3864> coast <3864>, in the borders <3725> of Zabulon <2194> and Nephthalim <3508>:

14 That it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> by Esaias <2268> the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>,

15 The land <1093> of Zabulon <2194>, and the land <1093> of Nephthalim <3508>, [by] the way <3598> of the sea <2281>, beyond <4008> Jordan <2446>, Galilee < 1056> of the Gentiles <1484>;

16 The people <2992> which <3588> sat <2521> in darkness <4655> saw <1492> great <3173> light < 5457>; and to them which <3588> sat <2521> in the region <5561> and shadow <4639> of death <2288> light < 5457> is sprung <0393> up.

17 From that time <5119> Jesus <2424> began < 0756> to preach <2784>, and to say <3004>, Repent < 3340>: for the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is at < 1448> hand <1448>.

18. And Jesus <2424>, walking <4043> by the sea < 2281> of Galilee <1056>, saw <1492> two <1417> brethren <0080>, Simon <4613> called <3004> Peter < 4074>, and Andrew <0406> his brother <0080>, casting < 0906> a net <0293> into <1519> the sea <2281>: for they were fishers <0231>.

19 And he saith <3004> unto them, Follow <3694> me, and I will <3195> make <4160> you fishers <0231> of men <0444>.

20 And they straightway <2112> left <0863> [their] nets <1350>, and followed <0190> him.

21 And going <4260> on from thence <1564>, he saw <1492> other <0243> two <1417> brethren <0080>, James <2385> [the son] of Zebedee <2199>, and John <2491> his brother <0080>, in a ship <4143> with Zebedee <2199> their father <3962>, mending <2675> their nets <1350>; and he called <2564> them.

22 And they immediately <2112> left <0863> the ship <4143> and their father <3962>, and followed <0190> him.

23. And Jesus <2424> went <4013> about <4013> all <3650> Galilee <1056>, teaching <1321> in their synagogues <4864>, and preaching <2784> the gospel <2098> of the kingdom <0932>, and healing <2323> all <3956> manner of sickness <3554> and all <3956> manner of disease < 3119> among <1722> the people <2992>.

24 And his fame <0189> went <0565> throughout < 1519> all <3650> Syria <4947>: and they brought <4374> unto him all <3956> sick <2560> people that were taken < 4912> with divers <4164> diseases <3554> and torments < 0931>, and those <3588> which were possessed <1139> with devils <1139>, and those which were lunatick <4583>, and those that had the palsy <3885>; and he healed <2323> them.

25 And there followed <0190> him great <4183> multitudes <3793> of people from Galilee <1056>, and [from] Decapolis <1179>, and [from] Jerusalem <2414>, and [from] Judaea <2449>, and [from] beyond <4008> Jordan <2446>.

Matthew 5

1. And seeing <1492> the multitudes <3793>, he went <0305> up into <1519> a mountain <3735>: and when he was set <2523>, his disciples <3101> came <4334> unto him:

2 And he opened <0455> his mouth <4750>, and taught <1321> them, saying <3004>,

3. Blessed <3107> [are] the poor <4434> in spirit <4151>: for theirs <0846> is the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

4 Blessed <3107> [are] they that mourn <3996>: for they shall be comforted <3870>.

5 Blessed <3107> [are] the meek <4239>: for they shall inherit <2816> the earth <1093>.

6 Blessed <3107> [are] they which <3588> do hunger <3983> and thirst <1372> after righteousness <1343>: for they shall be filled <5526>.

7 Blessed <3107> [are] the merciful <1655>: for they shall obtain <1653> mercy <1653>.

8 Blessed <3107> [are] the pure <2513> in heart < 2588>: for they shall see <3700> God <2316>.

9 Blessed <3107> [are] the peacemakers <1518>: for they shall be called <2564> the children <5207> of God < 2316>.

10 Blessed <3107> [are] they which are persecuted < 1377> for righteousness <1343>' sake <1752>: for theirs < 0846> is the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

11 Blessed <3107> are ye, when <3752> [men] shall revile <3679> you, and persecute <1377> [you], and shall say <2036> all <3956> manner of evil <4487> against < 2596> you falsely <5574>, for my sake <1752>.

12 Rejoice <5463>, and be exceeding glad <0021>: for great <4183> [is] your <5216> reward <3408> in heaven <3772>: for so <3779> persecuted <1377> they the prophets <4396> which <3588> were before <4253> you.

13. Ye are the salt <0217> of the earth <1093>: but if <1437> the salt <0217> have lost <3471> his savour <3471>, wherewith <5101> shall it be salted <0233>? it is thenceforth <2089> good <2480> for nothing <3762>, but to be cast <0906> out, and to be trodden <2662> under < 2662> foot <2662> of men <0444>.

14 Ye are the light <5457> of the world <2889>. A city <4172> that is set <2749> on <1883> an hill < 3735> cannot <1410> be hid <2928>.

15 Neither <3761> do men light <2545> a candle < 3088>, and put <5087> it under <5259> a bushel <3426>, but on <1909> a candlestick <3087>; and it giveth light < 2989> unto all <3956> that are in the house <3614>.

16 Let your <5216> light <5457> so <3779> shine <2989> before <1715> men <0444>, that they may see <1492> your <5216> good <2570> works <2041>, and glorify <1392> your <5216> Father <3962> which < 3588> is in heaven <3772>.

17. Think <3543> not that I am come <2064> to destroy <2647> the law <3551>, or <2228> the prophets <4396>: I am not come <2064> to destroy <2647>, but to fulfil <4137>.

18 For verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Till <2193> heaven <3772> and earth <1093> pass <3928>, one <1520> jot <2503> or <2228> one <3391> tittle <2762> shall in no <3364> wise pass <3928> from the law <3551>, till <2193> all <3956> be fulfilled <1096>.

19 Whosoever <1437> therefore <3767> shall break <3089> one <3391> of these <5130> least <1646> commandments <1785>, and shall teach <1321> men <0444> so <3779>, he shall be called <2564> the least <1646> in the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>: but whosoever <0302> shall do <4160> and teach <1321> [them], the same <3778> shall be called <2564> great <3173> in the kingdom < 0932> of heaven <3772>.

20 For I say <3004> unto you, That except <3362> your <5216> righteousness <1343> shall exceed <4052> [the righteousness <1343>] of the scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, ye shall in no <3364> case <3364> enter < 1525> into <1519> the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

21. Ye have heard <0191> that it was said <2046> by them of old <0744> time <0744>, Thou shalt not kill < 5407>; and whosoever <0302> shall kill <5407> shall be in danger <1777> of the judgment <2920>:

22 But I say <3004> unto you, That whosoever <3588> is angry <3710> with his brother <0080> without <1500> a cause <1500> shall be in danger <1777> of the judgment < 2920>: and whosoever <0302> shall say <2036> to his brother <0080>, Raca <4469>, shall be in danger <1777> of the council <4892>: but whosoever <0302> shall say <2036>, Thou fool <3474>, shall be in danger <1777> of hell < 1067> fire <4442>.

23 Therefore <3767> if thou bring <4374> thy gift <1435> to the altar <2379>, and there <1563> rememberest <3415> that thy brother <0080> hath <2192> ought < 5100> against <2596> thee;

24 Leave <0863> there <1563> thy gift <1435> before <1715> the altar <2379>, and go <5217> thy way; first <4412> be reconciled <1259> to thy brother <0080>, and then <5119> come <2064> and offer <4374> thy gift <1435>.

25 Agree <2132> with thine <4675> adversary < 0476> quickly <5035>, whiles <3755> thou art <1488> in the way <3598> with him; lest <3379> at <3379> any <3379> time <3379> the adversary <0476> deliver < 3860> thee to the judge <2923>, and the judge <2923> deliver <3860> thee to the officer <5257>, and thou be cast <0906> into <1519> prison <5438>.

26 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto thee, Thou shalt by no <3364> means <3361> come <1831> out thence < 1564>, till <2193> thou hast paid <0591> the uttermost < 2078> farthing <2835>.

27. Ye have heard <0191> that it was said <2046> by them of old <0744> time <0744>, Thou shalt not commit < 3431> adultery <3431>:

28 But I say <3004> unto you, That whosoever <3588> looketh <0991> on a woman <1135> to lust <1937> after her hath committed <3431> adultery <3431> with her already < 2235> in his heart <2588>.

29 And if <1487> thy right <1188> eye <3788> offend <4624> thee, pluck <1808> it out, and cast <0906> [it] from thee: for it is profitable <4851> for thee that one < 1520> of thy members <3196> should perish <0622>, and not [that] thy whole <3650> body <4983> should be cast <0906> into <1519> hell <1067>.

30 And if thy right <1188> hand <5495> offend < 4624> thee, cut <1581> it off <1581>, and cast <0906> [it] from thee: for it is profitable <4851> for thee that one < 1520> of thy members <3196> should perish <0622>, and not [that] thy whole <3650> body <4983> should be cast <0906> into <1519> hell <1067>.

31 It hath been said <2046>, Whosoever <0302> shall put <0630> away <0630> his wife <1135>, let him give < 1325> her a writing of divorcement <0647>:

32 But I say <3004> unto you, That whosoever <0302> shall put <0630> away <0630> his wife <1135>, saving < 3924> for the cause <3056> of fornication <4202>, causeth <4160> her to commit <3429> adultery <3429>: and whosoever <1437> shall marry <1060> her that is divorced < 0630> committeth <3429> adultery <3429>.

33. Again <3825>, ye have heard <0191> that it hath been said <2046> by them of old <0744> time <0744>, Thou shalt not forswear <1964> thyself, but shalt perform <0591> unto the Lord <2962> thine <4675> oaths <3727>:

34 But I say <3004> unto you, Swear <3660> not at <2527> all <3654>; neither <3383> by heaven <3772>; for it is God's <2316> throne <2362>:

35 Nor <3383> by the earth <1093>; for it is his footstool <5286>: neither <3383> by Jerusalem <2414>; for it is the city <4172> of the great <3173> King <0935> .

36 Neither <3383> shalt thou swear <3660> by thy head <2776>, because <3754> thou canst <1410> not make <4160> one <3391> hair <2359> white <3022> or < 2228> black <3189>.

37 But let your <5216> communication <3056> be, Yea <3483>, yea <3483>; Nay <3756>, nay <3756>: for whatsoever <3588> is more <4053> than these <5130> cometh <1511> of evil <4190>.

38. Ye have heard <0191> that it hath been said < 2046>, An eye <3788> for an eye <3788>, and a tooth < 3599> for a tooth <3599>:

39 But I say <3004> unto you, That ye resist <0436> not evil <4190>: but whosoever <3748> shall smite <4474> thee on <1909> thy right <1188> cheek <4600>, turn < 4762> to him the other <0243> also <2532>.

40 And if any man will <2309> sue <2919> thee at <2919> the law, and take <2983> away thy coat <5509>, let him have [thy] cloke <2440> also <2532>.

41 And whosoever <3748> shall compel <0029> thee to go a mile <3400>, go <5217> with him twain <1417>.

42 Give <1325> to him that asketh <0154> thee, and from him that would <2309> borrow <1155> of thee turn < 0654> not thou away <0654>.

43. Ye have heard <0191> that it hath been said < 2046>, Thou shalt love <0025> thy neighbour <4139>, and hate <3404> thine <4675> enemy <2190>.

44 But I say <3004> unto you, Love <0025> your < 5216> enemies <2190>, bless <2127> them that curse < 2672> you, do <4160> good <2573> to them that hate < 3404> you, and pray <4336> for them which <3588> despitefully <1908> use <1908> you, and persecute <1377> you;

45 That ye may be the children <5207> of your <5216> Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>: for he maketh <0393> his sun <2246> to rise <0393> on < 1909> the evil <4190> and on the good <0018>, and sendeth <1026> rain <1026> on <1909> the just <1342> and on the unjust <0094>.

46 For if <1437> ye love <0025> them which < 3588> love <0025> you, what <5101> reward <3408> have <2192> ye? do <4160> not even <2532> the publicans < 5052> the same <0846>?

47 And if <1437> ye salute <0782> your <5216> brethren <0080> only <3440>, what <5101> do <4160> ye more <4053> [than others]? do <4160> not even <2532> the publicans <5052> so <3779>?

48 Be ye therefore <3767> perfect <5046>, even < 5618> as your <5216> Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772> is perfect <5046>.

Matthew 6

1. Take heed <4337> that ye do <4160> not your < 5216> alms <1654> before <1715> men <0444>, to be seen <2300> of them: otherwise <1490> ye have <2192> no <3756> reward <3408> of your <5216> Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

2 Therefore <3767> when <3752> thou doest < 4160> [thine] alms <1654>, do not sound <4537> a trumpet <4537> before <1715> thee, as the hypocrites <5273> do <4160> in the synagogues <4864> and in the streets <4505> , that they may have glory <1392> of men <0444>. Verily < 0281> I say <3004> unto you, They have <0568> their reward <3408>.

3 But when thou doest <4160> alms <1654>, let not thy left <0710> hand know <1097> what <5101> thy right <1188> hand doeth <4160>:

4 That thine <4675> alms <1654> may be in secret <2927>: and thy Father <3962> which <3588> seeth < 0991> in secret <2729> himself <0846> shall reward < 0591> thee openly <5318>.

5. And when <3752> thou prayest <4336>, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites <5273> [are]: for they love <5368> to pray <4336> standing <2476> in the synagogues <4864> and in the corners <1137> of the streets <4113>, that they may be seen <5316> of men <0444>. Verily <0281> I say < 3004> unto you, They have <0568> their reward <3408>.

6 But thou, when <3752> thou prayest <4336>, enter <1525> into <1519> thy closet <5009>, and when thou hast shut <2808> thy door <2374>, pray <4336> to thy Father <3962> which <3588> is in secret <2729>; and thy Father <3962> which <3588> seeth <0991> in secret <2729> shall reward <0591> thee openly <5318>.

7 But when ye pray <4336>, use not vain repetitions < 0945>, as the heathen <1482> [do]: for they think <1380> that they shall be heard <1522> for their much <4180> speaking <4180>.

8 Be not ye therefore <3767> like <3666> unto them: for your <5216> Father <3962> knoweth <1492> what < 3739> things ye have <2192> need <5532> of, before < 4253> ye ask <0154> him.

9. After <3779> this <3779> manner <3779> therefore <3767> pray <4336> ye: Our Father <3962> which <3588> art in heaven <3772>, Hallowed <0037> be thy name <3686>.

10 Thy kingdom <0932> come <2064>. Thy will < 2307> be done <1096> in earth <1093>, as [it is] in heaven <3772>.

11 Give <1325> us this <4594> day <4594> our daily <1967> bread <0740>.

12 And forgive <0863> us our debts <3783>, as we forgive <0863> our debtors <3781>.

13 And lead <1533> us not into <1519> temptation <3986>, but deliver <4506> us from evil <4190>: For thine <4675> is the kingdom <0932>, and the power <1411>, and the glory <1391>, for ever <0165>. Amen <0281>.

14 For if <1437> ye forgive <0863> men <0444> their trespasses <3900>, your <5216> heavenly <3770> Father <3962> will also <2532> forgive <0863> you:

15 But if <1437> ye forgive <0863> not men < 0444> their trespasses <3900>, neither <3761> will your < 5216> Father <3962> forgive <0863> your <5216> trespasses <3900>.

16. Moreover <1161> when <3752> ye fast <3522>, be not, as the hypocrites <5273>, of a sad <4659> countenance <4659>: for they disfigure <0853> their faces <4383>, that they may appear <5316> unto men <0444> to fast < 3522>. Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, They have < 0568> their reward <3408>.

17 But thou, when thou fastest <3522>, anoint <0218> thine <4675> head <2776>, and wash <3538> thy face < 4383>;

18 That thou appear <5316> not unto men <0444> to fast <3522>, but unto thy Father <3962> which <3588> is in secret <2729>: and thy Father <3962>, which <3588> seeth <0991> in secret <2729>, shall reward <0591> thee openly <5318>.

19. Lay not up for yourselves <5213> treasures <2344> upon earth <1093>, where <3699> moth <4597> and rust <1035> doth corrupt <0853>, and where <3699> thieves < 2812> break <1358> through <1358> and steal <2813>:

20 But lay up for yourselves <5213> treasures <2344> in heaven <3772>, where <3699> neither <3777> moth < 4597> nor <3777> rust <1035> doth corrupt <0853>, and where <3699> thieves <2812> do not break <1358> through <1358> nor <3761> steal <2813>:

21 For where <3699> your <5216> treasure < 2344> is, there <1563> will your <5216> heart <2588> be also <2532>.

22 The light <5460> of the body <4983> is the eye <3788>: if <1437> therefore <3767> thine <4675> eye <3788> be single <0573>, thy whole <3650> body < 4983> shall be full <5460> of light <3088>.

23 But if <1487> thine <4675> eye <3788> be evil <4190>, thy whole <3650> body <4983> shall be full of darkness <4652>. If <1487> therefore <3767> the light <5457> that is in thee be darkness <4655>, how <4214> great <4214> [is] that darkness <4655>!

24 No <3762> man <3762> can <1410> serve < 1398> two <1417> masters <2962>: for either <2228> he will hate <3404> the one <1520>, and love <0025> the other <2087>; or <2228> else he will hold <0472> to the one <1520>, and despise <2706> the other <2087>. Ye cannot <1410> serve <1398> God <2316> and mammon < 3126>.

25. Therefore <5124> I say <3004> unto you, Take no <3361> thought <3309> for your <5216> life <5590>, what <5101> ye shall eat <5315>, or what <5101> ye shall drink <4095>; nor <3366> yet for your <5216> body < 4983>, what <5101> ye shall put <1749> on <1746>. Is not the life <5590> more <4119> than meat <5160>, and the body <4983> than raiment <1742>?

26 Behold <1689> the fowls <4071> of the air < 3772>: for they sow <4687> not, neither <3761> do they reap <2325>, nor <3761> gather <4863> into <1519> barns <0596>; yet your <5216> heavenly <3770> Father < 3962> feedeth <5142> them. Are ye not much <3123> better <1308> than they?

27 Which <5101> of you by taking thought <3309> can <1410> add <4369> one <1520> cubit <4083> unto his stature <2244>?

28 And why <5101> take ye thought <3309> for raiment <1742>? Consider <2648> the lilies <2918> of the field <0068>, how <4459> they grow <0837>; they toil < 2872> not, neither <3761> do they spin <3514>:

29 And yet I say <3004> unto you, That even <3761> Solomon <4672> in all <3956> his glory <1391> was not arrayed <4016> like <5613> one <1520> of these < 5130>.

30 Wherefore <1161>, if <1487> God <2316> so <3779> clothe <0294> the grass <5528> of the field < 0068>, which to day <4594> is, and to morrow <0839> is cast <0906> into <1519> the oven <2823>, [shall he] not much <4183> more <3123> [clothe] you, O ye of little <3640> faith <3640>?

31 Therefore <3767> take no <3361> thought < 3309>, saying <3004>, What <5101> shall we eat <5315> ? or <2228>, What <5101> shall we drink <4095>? or < 2228>, Wherewithal <5101> shall we be clothed <4016>?

32 (For after <1934> all <0537> these <5023> things do the Gentiles <1484> seek <1934>:) for your < 5216> heavenly <3770> Father <3962> knoweth <1492> that ye have need <5535> of all <3956> these <5130> things.

33 But seek <2212> ye first <4412> the kingdom < 0932> of God <2316>, and his righteousness <1343>; and all <3956> these <5023> things shall be added <4369> unto you.

34 Take therefore <3767> no <3361> thought < 3309> for the morrow <0839>: for the morrow <0839> shall take thought <3309> for the things of itself <1438>. Sufficient <0713> unto the day <2250> [is] the evil < 2549> thereof <0846>.

Matthew 7

1. Judge <2919> not, that ye be not judged <2919>.

2 For with what <3739> judgment <2917> ye judge < 2919>, ye shall be judged <2919>: and with what <3739> measure <3358> ye mete <3354>, it shall be measured < 0488> to you again <0488>.

3 And why <5101> beholdest <0991> thou the mote < 2595> that is in thy brother's <0080> eye <3788>, but considerest <2657> not the beam <1385> that is in thine < 4674> own eye <3788>?

4 Or <2228> how <4459> wilt thou say <2046> to thy brother <0080>, Let <0863> me pull <1544> out the mote <2595> out of thine <4675> eye <3788>; and, behold <2400>, a beam <1385> [is] in thine <4675> own eye < 3788>?

5 Thou hypocrite <5273>, first <4412> cast < 1544> out the beam <1385> out of thine <4675> own eye < 3788>; and then <5119> shalt thou see <1227> clearly < 1227> to cast <1544> out the mote <2595> out of thy brother's <0080> eye <3788>.

6 Give <1325> not that which <3588> is holy < 0040> unto the dogs <2965>, neither <3366> cast <0906> ye your <5216> pearls <3135> before <1715> swine < 5519>, lest <3379> they trample <2662> them under < 1722> their feet <4228>, and turn <4762> again <4762> and rend <4486> you.

7. Ask <0154>, and it shall be given <1325> you; seek <2212>, and ye shall find <2147>; knock <2925>, and it shall be opened <0455> unto you:

8 For every <3956> one that asketh <0154> receiveth <2983>; and he that seeketh <2212> findeth <2147>; and to him that knocketh <2925> it shall be opened <0455>.

9 Or <2228> what <5101> man <0444> is there of you, whom <3739> if <1437> his son <5207> ask < 0154> bread <0740>, will he give <1929> him a stone < 3037>?

10 Or <2532> if <1437> he ask <0154> a fish <2486>, will he give <1929> him a serpent <3789>?

11 If <1487> ye then <3767>, being <5607> evil <4190>, know <1492> how to give <1325> good < 0018> gifts <1435> unto your <5216> children <5043>, how <4214> much <4214> more <3123> shall your < 5216> Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772> give <1325> good <0018> things to them that ask <0154> him?

12. Therefore <3767> all <3956> things whatsoever <0302> ye would <2309> that men <0444> should do < 4160> to you, do <4160> ye even <2532> so <3779> to them: for this <3778> is the law <3551> and the prophets < 4396>.

13 Enter <1525> ye in at <1223> the strait < 4728> gate <4439>: for wide <4116> [is] the gate < 4439>, and broad <2149> [is] the way <3598>, that leadeth <0520> to destruction <0684>, and many <4183> there be which <3588> go <1525> in thereat <0846>:

14 Because <3754> strait <4728> [is] the gate < 4439>, and narrow <2346> [is] the way <3598>, which < 3588> leadeth <0520> unto life <2222>, and few <3641> there be that find <2147> it.

15. Beware <4337> of false <5578> prophets < 5578>, which <3748> come <2064> to you in sheep's < 4263> clothing <1742>, but inwardly <2081> they are ravening <0727> wolves <3074>.

16 Ye shall know <1921> them by their fruits <2590>. Do men gather <4816> grapes <4718> of thorns <0173>, or <2228> figs <4810> of thistles <5146>?

17 Even so <3779> every <3956> good <0018> tree <1186> bringeth <4160> forth <4160> good < 2570> fruit <2590>; but a corrupt <4550> tree <1186> bringeth <4160> forth <4160> evil <4190> fruit < 2590>.

18 A good <0018> tree <1186> cannot <1410> bring <4160> forth <4160> evil <4190> fruit <2590>, neither <3761> [can] a corrupt <4550> tree <1186> bring <4160> forth <4160> good <2570> fruit <2590>.

19 Every <3956> tree <1186> that bringeth < 4160> not forth <4160> good <2570> fruit <2590> is hewn <1581> down <1581>, and cast <0906> into < 1519> the fire <4442>.

20 Wherefore <1065> by their fruits <2590> ye shall know <1921> them.

21. Not every <3956> one that saith <3004> unto me, Lord <2962>, Lord <2962>, shall enter <1525> into < 1519> the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>; but he that doeth <4160> the will <2307> of my Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

22 Many <4183> will say <2046> to me in that day <2250>, Lord <2962>, Lord <2962>, have we not prophesied <4395> in thy name <3686>? and in thy name <3686> have cast <1544> out devils <1140>? and in thy name <3686> done <4160> many <4183> wonderful <1411> works?

23 And then <5119> will I profess <3670> unto them, I never <3763> knew <1097> you: depart <0672> from me, ye that work <2038> iniquity <0458>.

24 Therefore <3767> whosoever <3748> heareth < 0191> these <5128> sayings <3056> of mine <3450>, and doeth <4160> them, I will liken <3666> him unto a wise < 5429> man <0435>, which <3748> built <3618> his house <3614> upon a rock <4073>:

25 And the rain <1028> descended <2597>, and the floods <4215> came <2064>, and the winds <0417> blew < 4154>, and beat <4363> upon that house <3614>; and it fell <4098> not: for it was founded <2311> upon a rock <4073>.

26 And every <3956> one that heareth <0191> these <5128> sayings <3056> of mine <3450>, and doeth < 4160> them not, shall be likened <3666> unto a foolish < 3474> man <0435>, which <3748> built <3618> his house <3614> upon the sand <0285>:

27 And the rain <1028> descended <2597>, and the floods <4215> came <2064>, and the winds <0417> blew < 4154>, and beat <4350> upon that house <3614>; and it fell <4098>: and great <3173> was the fall <4431> of it.

28 And it came <1096> to pass, when <3753> Jesus <2424> had ended <4931> these <5128> sayings <3056> , the people <3793> were astonished <1605> at <1909> his doctrine <1322>:

29 For he taught <1321> them as [one] having <2192> authority <1849>, and not as the scribes <1122>.

Matthew 8

1. When he was come <2597> down <2597> from the mountain <3735>, great <4183> multitudes <3793> followed <0190> him.

2 And, behold <2400>, there came <2064> a leper < 3015> and worshipped <4352> him, saying <3004>, Lord < 2962>, if <1437> thou wilt <2309>, thou canst <1410> make <2511> me clean <2511>.

3 And Jesus <2424> put <1614> forth <1614> [his] hand <5495>, and touched <0680> him, saying <3004>, I will <2309>; be thou clean <2511>. And immediately < 2112> his leprosy <3014> was cleansed <2511>.

4 And Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto him, See < 3708> thou tell <2036> no <3367> man <3367>; but go <5217> thy way, shew <1166> thyself <4572> to the priest <2409>, and offer <4374> the gift <1435> that Moses < 3475> commanded <4367>, for a testimony <3142> unto them.

5. And when Jesus <2424> was entered <1525> into < 1519> Capernaum <2584>, there came <4334> unto him a centurion <1543>, beseeching <3870> him,

6 And saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, my servant < 3816> lieth <0906> at <1722> home <3614> sick < 3885> of the palsy <3885>, grievously <1171> tormented < 0928>.

7 And Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto him, I will come <2064> and heal <2323> him.

8 The centurion <1543> answered <0611> and said < 5346>, Lord <2962>, I am <1510> not worthy <2425> that thou shouldest come <1525> under <5259> my roof < 4721>: but speak <2036> the word <3056> only <3440>, and my servant <3816> shall be healed <2390>.

9 For I am <1510> a man <0444> under <5259> authority <1849>, having <2192> soldiers <4757> under <5259> me: and I say <3004> to this <5129> [man], Go < 4198>, and he goeth <4198>; and to another <0243>, Come < 2064>, and he cometh <2064>; and to my servant <1401>, Do <4160> this <5124>, and he doeth <4160> [it].

10 When Jesus <2424> heard <0191> [it], he marvelled <2296>, and said <4483> to them that followed < 0190>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, I have not found <2147> so <5118> great <5118> faith <4102>, no <3761>, not in Israel <2474>.

11 And I say <3004> unto you, That many <4183> shall come <2240> from the east <0395> and west <1424>, and shall sit <0347> down <0347> with Abraham <11>, and Isaac <2464>, and Jacob <2384>, in the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

12 But the children <5207> of the kingdom <0932> shall be cast <1544> out into <1519> outer <1857> darkness <4655>: there <1563> shall be weeping <2805> and gnashing <1030> of teeth <3599>.

13 And Jesus <2424> said <4483> unto the centurion <1543>, Go <5217> thy way; and as thou hast believed < 4100>, [so] be it done <1096> unto thee. And his servant < 3816> was healed <2390> in the selfsame <1565> hour < 5610>.

14. And when Jesus <2424> was come <2064> into < 1519> Peter's <4074> house <3614>, he saw <1492> his wife's <3994> mother <3994> laid <0906>, and sick < 4445> of a fever <4445>.

15 And he touched <0680> her hand <5495>, and the fever <4446> left <0863> her: and she arose <1453>, and ministered <1247> unto them.

16 When the even <3798> was come <1096>, they brought <4374> unto him many <4183> that were possessed < 1139> with devils <1139>: and he cast <1544> out the spirits <4151> with [his] word <3056>, and healed <2323> all <3956> that were sick <2560>:

17 That it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> by Esaias <2268> the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>, Himself <0846> took <2983> our infirmities <0769>, and bare <0941> [our] sicknesses < 3554>.

18. Now <1161> when Jesus <2424> saw <1492> great <4183> multitudes <3793> about <4012> him, he gave <2753> commandment <2753> to depart <0565> unto the other <4008> side <4008>.

19 And a certain <1520> scribe <1122> came < 4334>, and said <4483> unto him, Master <1320>, I will follow <0190> thee whithersoever <1437> thou goest <0565> .

20 And Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto him, The foxes <0258> have <2192> holes <5454>, and the birds < 4071> of the air <3772> [have] nests <2682>; but the Son <5207> of man <0444> hath <2192> not where <4226> to lay <2827> [his] head <2776>.

21 And another <2087> of his disciples <3101> said <4483> unto him, Lord <2962>, suffer <2010> me first < 4412> to go <0565> and bury <2290> my father <3962>.

22 But Jesus <2424> said <4483> unto him, Follow <0190> me; and let <0863> the dead <3498> bury < 2290> their dead <3498>.

23. And when he was entered <1684> into <1519> a ship <4143>, his disciples <3101> followed <0190> him.

24 And, behold <2400>, there arose <1096> a great <3173> tempest <4578> in the sea <2281>, insomuch < 5620> that the ship <4143> was covered <2572> with the waves <2949>: but he was asleep <2518>.

25 And his disciples <3101> came <4334> to [him], and awoke <1453> him, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, save <4982> us: we perish <0622>.

26 And he saith <3004> unto them, Why <5101> are ye fearful <1169>, O ye of little <3640> faith <3640>? Then <5119> he arose <1453>, and rebuked <2008> the winds < 0417> and the sea <2281>; and there was a great <3173> calm <1055>.

27 But the men <0444> marvelled <2296>, saying < 3004>, What <4217> manner <4217> of man is this <3778> , that even <2532> the winds <0417> and the sea <2281> obey <5219> him!

28. And when he was come <2064> to the other <4008> side <4008> into <1519> the country <5561> of the Gergesenes <1086>, there met <5221> him two <1417> possessed <1139> with devils <1139>, coming <1831> out of the tombs <3419>, exceeding <3029> fierce <5467>, so <5620> that no <3361> man <5100> might <2480> pass <3928> by that way <3598>.

29 And, behold <2400>, they cried <2896> out, saying <3004>, What <5101> have we to do with thee, Jesus < 2424>, thou Son <5207> of God <2316>? art thou come < 2064> hither <5602> to torment <0928> us before <4253> the time <2540>?

30 And there was a good <3112> way <3112> off < 0575> from them an herd <0034> of many <4183> swine < 5519> feeding <1006>.

31 So <1161> the devils <1142> besought <3870> him, saying <3004>, If <1487> thou cast <1544> us out, suffer <2010> us to go <0565> away <0565> into < 1519> the herd <0034> of swine <5519>.

32 And he said <4483> unto them, Go <5217>. And when they were come <1831> out, they went <0565> into < 1519> the herd <0034> of swine <5519>: and, behold < 2400>, the whole <3956> herd <0034> of swine <5519> ran <3729> violently down <2596> a steep <2911> place into <1519> the sea <2281>, and perished <0599> in the waters <5204>.

33 And they that kept <1006> them fled <5343>, and went <0565> their ways into <1519> the city <4172>, and told <0518> every <3956> thing, and what <3588> was befallen <4876> to the possessed <1139> of the devils < 1139>.

34 And, behold <2400>, the whole <3956> city < 4172> came <1831> out to meet <4877> Jesus <2424>: and when they saw <1492> him, they besought <3870> [him] that he would depart <3327> out of their coasts <3725>.

Matthew 9

1. And he entered <1684> into <1519> a ship < 4143>, and passed <1276> over <1276>, and came <2064> into <1519> his own <2398> city <4172>.

2 And, behold <2400>, they brought <4374> to him a man sick <3885> of the palsy <3885>, lying <0906> on < 1909> a bed <2825>: and Jesus <2424> seeing <1492> their faith <4102> said <4483> unto the sick <3885> of the palsy <3885>; Son <5043>, be of good cheer <2293>; thy sins <0266> be forgiven <0863> thee.

3 And, behold <2400>, certain <5100> of the scribes <1122> said <4483> within <1722> themselves <1438>, This <3778> [man] blasphemeth <0987>.

4 And Jesus <2424> knowing <1492> their thoughts <1761> said <4483>, Wherefore <5101> think <1760> ye evil <4190> in your <5216> hearts <2588>?

5 For whether <5101> is easier <2123>, to say < 2036>, [Thy] sins <0266> be forgiven <0863> thee; or < 2228> to say <2036>, Arise <1453>, and walk <4043>?

6 But that ye may know <1492> that the Son <5207> of man <0444> hath <2192> power <1849> on <1909> earth <1093> to forgive <0863> sins <0266>, (then saith <3004> he to the sick <3885> of the palsy <3885>,) Arise <1453>, take <0142> up thy bed <2825>, and go < 5217> unto thine <4675> house <3624>.

7 And he arose <1453>, and departed <0565> to his house <3624>.

8 But when the multitudes <3793> saw <1492> [it], they marvelled <2296>, and glorified <1392> God <2316>, which <3588> had given <1325> such <5108> power < 1849> unto men <0444>.

9. And as Jesus <2424> passed <3855> forth from thence <1564>, he saw <1492> a man <0444>, named < 3004> Matthew <3156>, sitting <2521> at <1909> the receipt <5058> of custom <5058>: and he saith <3004> unto him, Follow <0190> me. And he arose <0450>, and followed <0190> him.

10 And it came <1096> to pass, as Jesus <2424> sat <0345> at <0345> meat in the house <3614>, behold < 2400>, many <4183> publicans <5052> and sinners <0268> came <2064> and sat <4873> down <0347> with him and his disciples <3101>.

11 And when the Pharisees <5330> saw <1492> [it], they said <4483> unto his disciples <3101>, Why <1302> eateth <2068> your <5216> Master <1320> with publicans <5052> and sinners <0268>?

12 But when Jesus <2424> heard <0191> [that], he said <4483> unto them, They that be whole <2480> need < 5532> not a physician <2395>, but they that are sick <2560>.

13 But go <4198> ye and learn <3129> what < 5101> [that] meaneth <2076>, I will <2309> have mercy < 1656>, and not sacrifice <2378>: for I am not come <2064> to call <2564> the righteous <1342>, but sinners <0268> to repentance <3341>.

14. Then <5119> came <4334> to him the disciples < 3101> of John <2491>, saying <3004>, Why <1302> do we and the Pharisees <5330> fast <3522> oft <4183>, but thy disciples <3101> fast <3522> not?

15 And Jesus <2424> said <4483> unto them, Can < 1410> the children <5207> of the bridechamber <3567> mourn <3996>, as long <1909> as the bridegroom <3566> is with them? but the days <2250> will come <2064>, when <3752> the bridegroom <3566> shall be taken <0522> from them, and then <5119> shall they fast <3522>.

16 No <3762> man <3762> putteth <1911> a piece <1915> of new <0046> cloth <4470> unto an old < 3820> garment <2440>, for that which is put in to fill < 4138> it up taketh <0142> from the garment <2440>, and the rent <4978> is made <1096> worse <5501>.

17 Neither <3761> do men put <0906> new <3501> wine <3631> into <1519> old <3820> bottles <0779>: else <1490> the bottles <0779> break <4486>, and the wine <3631> runneth <1632> out, and the bottles <0779> perish <0622>: but they put <0906> new <3501> wine < 3631> into <1519> new <2537> bottles <0779>, and both <0297> are preserved <4933>.

18. While he spake <2980> these <5023> things unto them, behold <2400>, there came <2064> a certain ruler < 0758>, and worshipped <4352> him, saying <3004>, My daughter <2364> is even <0737> now <0737> dead < 5053>: but come <2064> and lay <2007> thy hand <5495> upon her, and she shall live <2198>.

19 And Jesus <2424> arose <1453>, and followed < 0190> him, and [so did] his disciples <3101>.

20 And, behold <2400>, a woman <1135>, which was diseased with an issue <0131> of blood <0131> twelve < 1427> years <2094>, came <4334> behind <3693> [him], and touched <0680> the hem <2899> of his garment <2440>:

21 For she said <3004> within <1722> herself < 1438>, If <1437> I may but touch <0680> his garment < 2440>, I shall be whole <4982>.

22 But Jesus <2424> turned <1994> him about < 1994>, and when he saw <1492> her, he said <2036>, Daughter <2364>, be of good comfort <2293>; thy faith <4102> hath made <4982> thee whole <4982>. And the woman <1135> was made <4982> whole <4982> from that hour <5610>.

23 And when Jesus <2424> came <2064> into < 1519> the ruler's <0758> house <3614>, and saw <1492> the minstrels <0834> and the people <3793> making <2350> a noise <2350>,

24 He said <3004> unto them, Give <0402> place < 0402>: for the maid <2877> is not dead <0599>, but sleepeth <2518>. And they laughed <2606> him to scorn <2606>.

25 But when <3753> the people <3793> were put < 1544> forth <1544>, he went <1525> in, and took <2902> her by the hand <5495>, and the maid <2877> arose <1453> .

26 And the fame <5345> hereof <3778> went < 1831> abroad <1831> into <1519> all <3650> that land <1093>.

27. And when Jesus <2424> departed <3855> thence < 1564>, two <1417> blind <5185> men followed <0190> him, crying <2896>, and saying <3004>, [Thou] Son <5207> of David <1138>, have mercy <1653> on us.

28 And when he was come <2064> into <1519> the house <3614>, the blind <5185> men came <4334> to him: and Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto them, Believe <4100> ye that I am able <1410> to do <4160> this <5124>? They said <3004> unto him, Yea <3483>, Lord <2962>.

29 Then <5119> touched <0680> he their eyes < 3788>, saying <3004>, According <2596> to your <5216> faith <4102> be it unto you.

30 And their eyes <3788> were opened <0455>; and Jesus <2424> straitly charged <1690> them, saying <3004>, See <3708> [that] no <3762> man <3367> know <1097> [it].

31 But they, when they were departed <1831>, spread < 1310> abroad <1310> his fame <1310> in all <3650> that country <1093>.

32 As they went <1831> out, behold <2400>, they brought <4374> to him a dumb <2974> man <0444> possessed <1139> with a devil <1139>.

33 And when the devil <1140> was cast <1544> out, the dumb <2974> spake <2980>: and the multitudes <3793> marvelled <2296>, saying <3004>, It was never <3763> so <3779> seen <5316> in Israel <2474>.

34 But the Pharisees <5330> said <3004>, He casteth <1544> out devils <1140> through <1722> the prince < 0758> of the devils <1140>.

35. And Jesus <2424> went <4013> about <4013> all <3956> the cities <4172> and villages <2968>, teaching <1321> in their synagogues <4864>, and preaching < 2784> the gospel <2098> of the kingdom <0932>, and healing <2323> every <3956> sickness <3554> and every < 3956> disease <3119> among <1722> the people <2992>.

36 But when he saw <1492> the multitudes <3793>, he was moved <4697> with compassion <4697> on <4012> them, because <3754> they fainted <1590>, and were scattered < 4496> abroad <4496>, as sheep <4263> having <2192> no <3361> shepherd <4166>.

37 Then <5119> saith <3004> he unto his disciples <3101>, The harvest <2326> truly <3303> [is] plenteous <4183>, but the labourers <2040> [are] few <3641>;

38 Pray <1189> ye therefore <3767> the Lord < 2962> of the harvest <2326>, that he will send <1544> forth <1544> labourers <2040> into <1519> his harvest < 2326>.

Matthew 10

1. And when he had called <4341> unto [him] his twelve < 1427> disciples <3101>, he gave <1325> them power < 1849> [against] unclean <0169> spirits <4151>, to cast < 1544> them out, and to heal <2323> all <3956> manner of sickness <3554> and all <3956> manner of disease <3119>.

2 Now <1161> the names <3686> of the twelve < 1427> apostles <0652> are these <5023>; The first < 4413>, Simon <4613>, who <3588> is called <3004> Peter <4074>, and Andrew <0406> his brother <0080>; James <2385> [the son] of Zebedee <2199>, and John <2491> his brother <0080>;

3 Philip <5376>, and Bartholomew <0918>; Thomas < 2381>, and Matthew <3156> the publican <5057>; James < 2385> [the son] of Alphaeus <0256>, and Lebbaeus <3002>, whose <3588> surname <1941> was Thaddaeus <2280>;

4 Simon <4613> the Canaanite <2581>, and Judas < 2455> Iscariot <2469>, who <3588> also <2532> betrayed <3860> him.

5. These <5128> twelve <1427> Jesus <2424> sent <0649> forth <0649>, and commanded <3853> them, saying <3004>, Go <0565> not into <1519> the way < 3598> of the Gentiles <1484>, and into <1519> [any] city <4172> of the Samaritans <4541> enter <1525> ye not:

6 But go <4198> rather <3123> to the lost < 0622> sheep <4263> of the house <3624> of Israel < 2474>.

7 And as ye go <4198>, preach <2784>, saying < 3004>, The kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is at < 1448> hand <1448>.

8 Heal <2323> the sick <0770>, cleanse <2511> the lepers <3015>, raise <1453> the dead <3498>, cast <1544> out devils <1140>: freely <1432> ye have received <2983>, freely <1432> give <1325>.

9 Provide <2532> neither <3361> gold <5557>, nor <3366> silver <0696>, nor <3366> brass <5475> in your <5216> purses <2223>,

10 Nor <3361> scrip <4082> for [your] journey < 3598>, neither <3366> two <1417> coats <5509>, neither <3366> shoes <5266>, nor <3366> yet staves < 4464>: for the workman <2040> is worthy <0514> of his meat <5160>.

11 And into <1519> whatsoever <0302> city < 4172> or <2228> town <2968> ye shall enter <1525>, enquire <1833> who <5101> in it is worthy <0514>; and there <1563> abide <3306> till <2193> ye go <1831> thence.

12 And when ye come <1525> into <1519> an house < 3614>, salute <0782> it.

13 And if <1437> the house <3614> be worthy < 0514>, let your <5216> peace <1515> come <2064> upon it: but if <1437> it be not worthy <0514>, let your < 5216> peace <1515> return <1994> to you.

14 And whosoever <1437> shall not receive <1209> you, nor <3366> hear <0191> your <5216> words < 3056>, when ye depart <1831> out of that house <3614> or <2228> city <4172>, shake <1621> off <1621> the dust <2868> of your <5216> feet <4228>.

15 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, It shall be more <0414> tolerable <0414> for the land <1093> of Sodom <4670> and Gomorrha <1116> in the day <2250> of judgment <2920>, than <2228> for that city <4172>.

16. Behold <2400>, I send you forth <0649> as sheep <4263> in the midst <3319> of wolves <3074>: be ye therefore <3767> wise <5429> as serpents <3789>, and harmless <0185> as doves <4058>.

17 But beware <4337> of men <0444>: for they will deliver <3860> you up to the councils <4892>, and they will scourge <3164> you in their synagogues <4864>;

18 And ye shall be brought <0071> before <1909> governors <2232> and kings <0935> for my sake <1752>, for a testimony <3142> against them and the Gentiles <1484>.

19 But when <3752> they deliver <3860> you up, take no <3361> thought <3309> how <4459> or <2228> what <5101> ye shall speak <2980>: for it shall be given < 1325> you in that same <1565> hour <5610> what <5101> ye shall speak <2980>.

20 For it is not ye that speak <2980>, but the Spirit < 4151> of your <5216> Father <3962> which <3588> speaketh <2980> in you.

21 And the brother <0080> shall deliver <3860> up the brother <0080> to death <2288>, and the father <3962> the child <5043>: and the children <5043> shall rise < 1881> up against <1909> [their] parents <1118>, and cause <2289> them to be put <2289> to death <2289>.

22 And ye shall be hated <3404> of all <3956> [men] for my name's <3686> sake: but he that endureth <5278> to the end <5056> shall be saved <4982>.

23 But when <3752> they persecute <1377> you in this <5026> city <4172>, flee <5343> ye into <1519> another <0243>: for verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Ye shall not have gone <5055> over <5055> the cities < 4172> of Israel <2474>, till <2193> the Son <5207> of man <0444> be come <2064>.

24 The disciple <3101> is not above <5228> [his] master <1320>, nor <3761> the servant <1401> above < 5228> his lord <2962>.

25 It is enough <0713> for the disciple <3101> that he be as his master <1320>, and the servant <1401> as his lord <2962>. If <1487> they have called <2564> the master < 1320> of the house <3617> Beelzebub <0954>, how <4214> much <4214> more <3123> [shall they call] them of his household <3615>?

26 Fear <5399> them not therefore <3767>: for there is nothing <3762> covered <2572>, that shall not be revealed <0601>; and hid <2927>, that shall not be known <1097>.

27 What <3739> I tell <3004> you in darkness < 4653>, [that] speak <2036> ye in light <5457>: and what < 3739> ye hear <0191> in the ear <3775>, [that] preach < 2784> ye upon the housetops <1430>.

28 And fear <5399> not them which <3588> kill < 0615> the body <4983>, but are not able <1410> to kill < 0615> the soul <5590>: but rather <3123> fear <5399> him which <3588> is able <1410> to destroy <0622> both <2532> soul <5590> and body <4983> in hell <1067>.

29 Are not two <1417> sparrows <4765> sold < 4453> for a farthing <0787>? and one <1520> of them shall not fall <4098> on <1909> the ground <1093> without < 0427> your <5216> Father <3962>.

30 But the very <2532> hairs <2359> of your < 5216> head <2776> are all <3956> numbered <0705>.

31 Fear <5399> ye not therefore <3767>, ye are of more <1308> value <1308> than many <4183> sparrows < 4765>.

32 Whosoever <3748> therefore <3767> shall confess <3670> me before <1715> men <0444>, him will I confess <3670> also <2504> before <1715> my Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

33 But whosoever <0302> shall deny <0720> me before <1715> men <0444>, him will I also <2504> deny < 0720> before <1715> my Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

34 Think <3543> not that I am come <2064> to send <0906> peace <1515> on <1909> earth <1093>: I came <2064> not to send <0906> peace <1515>, but a sword < 3162>.

35 For I am come <2064> to set <1369> a man < 0444> at <1369> variance <1369> against <2596> his father <3962>, and the daughter <2364> against <2596> her mother <3384>, and the daughter <3565> in law <3565> against <2596> her mother <3994> in law <3994>.

36 And a man's <0444> foes <2190> [shall be] they of his own household <3615>.

37 He that loveth <5368> father <3962> or < 2228> mother <3384> more <5228> than <5228> me is not worthy <0514> of me: and he that loveth <5368> son <5207> or <2228> daughter <2364> more <5228> than <5228> me is not worthy <0514> of me.

38 And he that taketh <2983> not his cross <4716>, and followeth <0190> after <3694> me, is not worthy < 0514> of me.

39 He that findeth <2147> his life <5590> shall lose <0622> it: and he that loseth <0622> his life <5590> for my sake <1752> shall find <2147> it.

40 He that receiveth <1209> you receiveth <1209> me, and he that receiveth <1209> me receiveth <1209> him that sent <0649> me.

41 He that receiveth <2983> a prophet <4396> in the name <3686> of a prophet <4396> shall receive <2983> a prophet's <4396> reward <3408>; and he that receiveth < 2983> a righteous <1342> man in the name <3686> of a righteous <1342> man shall receive <2983> a righteous < 1342> man's reward <3408>.

42 And whosoever <1437> shall give <4222> to drink <4222> unto one <1520> of these <5130> little < 3398> ones a cup <4221> of cold <5593> [water] only < 3440> in the name <3686> of a disciple <3101>, verily < 0281> I say <3004> unto you, he shall in no <3364> wise lose <0622> his reward <3408>.

Matthew 11

1. And it came <1096> to pass, when <3753> Jesus < 2424> had made <5055> an end <5055> of commanding < 1299> his twelve <1427> disciples <3101>, he departed < 3327> thence <1564> to teach <1321> and to preach < 2784> in their cities <4172>.

2 Now <1161> when John <2491> had heard <0191> in the prison <1201> the works <2041> of Christ <5547>, he sent <3992> two <1417> of his disciples <3101>,

3 And said <2036> unto him, Art <1488> thou he that should come <2064>, or <2228> do we look <4328> for another <2087>?

4 Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, Go <4198> and shew <0518> John <2491> again <0518> those things which <3739> ye do hear <0191> and see <0991>:

5 The blind <5185> receive <0308> their sight < 0308>, and the lame <5560> walk <4043>, the lepers < 3015> are cleansed <2511>, and the deaf <2974> hear < 0191>, the dead <3498> are raised <1453> up, and the poor <4434> have the gospel <2097> preached <2097> to them.

6 And blessed <3107> is [he], whosoever <1437> shall not be offended <4624> in me.

7. And as they departed <4198>, Jesus <2424> began <0756> to say <3004> unto the multitudes <3793> concerning <4012> John <2491>, What <5101> went < 1831> ye out into <1519> the wilderness <2048> to see < 2300>? A reed <2563> shaken <4531> with the wind < 0417>?

8 But what <5101> went <1831> ye out for to see < 1492>? A man <0444> clothed <0294> in soft <3120> raiment <2440>? behold <2400>, they that wear <5409> soft <3120> [clothing] are in kings <0935>' houses <3624> .

9 But what <5101> went <1831> ye out for to see < 1492>? A prophet <4396>? yea <3483>, I say <3004> unto you, and more <4055> than a prophet <4396>.

10 For this <3778> is [he], of whom <3739> it is written <1125>, Behold <2400>, I send <0649> my messenger <0032> before <4253> thy face <4383>, which <3739> shall prepare <2680> thy way <3598> before < 1715> thee.

11 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Among < 1722> them that are born <1084> of women <1135> there hath not risen <1453> a greater <3187> than John <2491> the Baptist <0910>: notwithstanding he that is least <3398> in the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is greater <3187> than he.

12 And from the days <2250> of John <2491> the Baptist <0910> until <2193> now <0737> the kingdom < 0932> of heaven <3772> suffereth <0971> violence < 0971>, and the violent <0973> take <0726> it by force < 0726>.

13 For all <3956> the prophets <4396> and the law <3551> prophesied <4395> until <2193> John <2491>.

14 And if <1487> ye will <2309> receive <1209> [it], this <0846> is Elias <2243>, which <3588> was for to come <2064>.

15 He that hath <2192> ears <3775> to hear < 0191>, let him hear <0191>.

16. But whereunto <5101> shall I liken <3666> this <5026> generation <1074>? It is like <3664> unto children <3808> sitting <2521> in the markets <0058>, and calling <4377> unto their fellows <2083>,

17 And saying <3004>, We have piped <0832> unto you, and ye have not danced <3738>; we have mourned <2354> unto you, and ye have not lamented <2875>.

18 For John <2491> came <2064> neither <3383> eating <2068> nor <3383> drinking <4095>, and they say <3004>, He hath <2192> a devil <1140>.

19 The Son <5207> of man <0444> came <2064> eating <2068> and drinking <4095>, and they say <3004>, Behold <2400> a man <0444> gluttonous <5314>, and a winebibber <3630>, a friend <5384> of publicans <5052> and sinners <0268>. But wisdom <4678> is justified <1344> of her children <5043>.

20 Then <5119> began <0756> he to upbraid < 3679> the cities <4172> wherein <3739> most <4118> of his mighty <1411> works were done <1096>, because <3754> they repented <3340> not:

21 Woe <3759> unto thee, Chorazin <5523>! woe < 3759> unto thee, Bethsaida <0966>! for if <1487> the mighty <1411> works, which <3588> were done <1096> in you, had been done <1096> in Tyre <5184> and Sidon <4605>, they would have repented <3340> long <3819> ago <3819> in sackcloth <4526> and ashes <4700>.

22 But I say <3004> unto you, It shall be more < 0414> tolerable <0414> for Tyre <5184> and Sidon < 4605> at <1722> the day <2250> of judgment <2920>, than <2228> for you.

23 And thou, Capernaum <2584>, which <3588> art exalted <5312> unto heaven <3772>, shalt be brought < 2601> down <2601> to hell <0086>: for if <1487> the mighty <1411> works, which <3588> have been done <1096> in thee, had been done <1096> in Sodom <4670>, it would have remained <3306> until <3360> this <4594> day <4594> .

24 But I say <3004> unto you, That it shall be more < 0414> tolerable <0414> for the land <1093> of Sodom < 4670> in the day <2250> of judgment <2920>, than < 2228> for thee.

25. At <1722> that time <2540> Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036>, I thank <1843> thee, O Father <3962>, Lord <2962> of heaven <3772> and earth <1093>, because <3754> thou hast hid <0613> these < 5023> things from the wise <4680> and prudent <4908>, and hast revealed <0601> them unto babes <3516>.

26 Even so <3779>, Father <3962>: for so < 3779> it seemed <2107> good <2107> in thy sight <1715> .

27 All <3956> things are delivered <3860> unto me of my Father <3962>: and no <3762> man <3762> knoweth <1921> the Son <5207>, but the Father <3962>; neither <3761> knoweth <1921> any <5100> man the Father < 3962>, save <1508> the Son <5207>, and [he] to whomsoever <1437> the Son <5207> will <1014> reveal <0601> [him].

28 Come <1205> unto me, all <3956> [ye] that labour <2872> and are heavy laden <5412>, and I will give you rest <0373>.

29 Take <0142> my yoke <2218> upon you, and learn <3129> of me; for I am <1510> meek <4235> and lowly < 5011> in heart <2588>: and ye shall find <2147> rest < 0372> unto your <5216> souls <5590>.

30 For my yoke <2218> [is] easy <5543>, and my burden <5413> is light <1645>.

Matthew 12

1. At <1722> that time <2540> Jesus <2424> went <4198> on the sabbath <4521> day through <1223> the corn <4702>; and his disciples <3101> were an hungred < 3983>, and began <0756> to pluck <5089> the ears < 4719> of corn <4719>, and to eat <2068>.

2 But when the Pharisees <5330> saw <1492> [it], they said <2036> unto him, Behold <2400>, thy disciples < 3101> do <4160> that which <3739> is not lawful <1832> to do <4160> upon the sabbath <4521> day.

3 But he said <2036> unto them, Have ye not read < 0314> what <5101> David <1138> did <4160>, when < 3753> he was an hungred <3983>, and they that were with him;

4 How <4459> he entered <1525> into <1519> the house <3624> of God <2316>, and did eat <5315> the shewbread <4286>, which <3739> was not lawful <1832> for him to eat <5315>, neither <3761> for them which were with him, but only <3441> for the priests <2409>?

5 Or <2228> have ye not read <0314> in the law < 3551>, how that on the sabbath <4521> days the priests < 2409> in the temple <2411> profane <0953> the sabbath < 4521>, and are blameless <0338>?

6 But I say <3004> unto you, That in this <5602> place <5602> is [one] greater <3187> than the temple < 2411>.

7 But if <1487> ye had known <1097> what < 5101> [this] meaneth <2076>, I will <2309> have mercy < 1656>, and not sacrifice <2378>, ye would not have condemned < 2613> the guiltless <0338>.

8 For the Son <5207> of man <0444> is Lord < 2962> even <2532> of the sabbath <4521> day.

9 And when he was departed <3327> thence <1564>, he went <2064> into <1519> their synagogue <4864>:

10 And, behold <2400>, there was a man <0444> which had <2192> [his] hand <5495> withered <3584>. And they asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, Is it lawful <1832> to heal <2323> on the sabbath <4521> days? that they might accuse <2723> him.

11 And he said <2036> unto them, What <5101> man <0444> shall there be among <1537> you, that shall have < 2192> one <1520> sheep <4263>, and if <1437> it fall <1706> into <1519> a pit <0999> on the sabbath < 4521> day, will he not lay hold <2902> on it, and lift < 1453> [it] out?

12 How <4214> much <4214> then <3767> is a man <0444> better <1308> than a sheep <4263>? Wherefore <5620> it is lawful <1832> to do <4160> well <2573> on the sabbath <4521> days.

13 Then <5119> saith <3004> he to the man < 0444>, Stretch <1614> forth <1614> thine <4675> hand <5495>. And he stretched <1614> [it] forth <1614>; and it was restored <0600> whole <5199>, like <5613> as the other <0243>.

14. Then <1161> the Pharisees <5330> went < 1831> out, and held <2983> a council <4824> against < 2596> him, how <3704> they might destroy <0622> him.

15 But when Jesus <2424> knew <1097> [it], he withdrew <0402> himself from thence <1564>: and great < 4183> multitudes <3793> followed <0190> him, and he healed <2323> them all <3956>;

16 And charged <2008> them that they should not make < 4160> him known <5318>:

17 That it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> by Esaias <2268> the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>,

18 Behold <2400> my servant <3816>, whom < 3739> I have chosen <0140>; my beloved <0027>, in whom < 3739> my soul <5590> is well <2106> pleased <2106>: I will put <5087> my spirit <4151> upon him, and he shall shew <0518> judgment <2920> to the Gentiles <1484>.

19 He shall not strive <2051>, nor <3761> cry < 2905>; neither <3761> shall any <5100> man hear <0191> his voice <5456> in the streets <4113>.

20 A bruised <4937> reed <2563> shall he not break <2608>, and smoking <5187> flax <3043> shall he not quench <4570>, till <2193> he send <1544> forth < 1544> judgment <2920> unto victory <3534>.

21 And in his name <3686> shall the Gentiles <1484> trust <1679>.

22. Then <5119> was brought <4374> unto him one possessed <1139> with a devil <1139>, blind <5185>, and dumb <2974>: and he healed <2323> him, insomuch <5620> that the blind <5185> and dumb <2974> both <2532> spake <2980> and saw <0991>.

23 And all <3956> the people <3793> were amazed < 1839>, and said <3004>, Is not this <3778> the son < 5207> of David <1138>?

24 But when the Pharisees <5330> heard <0191> [it], they said <2036>, This <3778> [fellow] doth not cast < 1544> out devils <1140>, but by Beelzebub <0954> the prince <0758> of the devils <1140>.

25 And Jesus <2424> knew <1492> their thoughts < 1761>, and said <2036> unto them, Every <3956> kingdom < 0932> divided <3307> against <2596> itself <1438> is brought <2049> to desolation <2049>; and every <3956> city <4172> or <2228> house <3614> divided <3307> against <2596> itself <1438> shall not stand <2476>:

26 And if <1487> Satan <4567> cast <1544> out Satan <4567>, he is divided <3307> against <1909> himself <1438>; how <4459> shall then <3767> his kingdom <0932> stand <2476>?

27 And if <1487> I by Beelzebub <0954> cast < 1544> out devils <1140>, by whom <5101> do your <5216> children <5207> cast <1544> [them] out? therefore <5124> they shall be your <5216> judges <2923>.

28 But if <1487> I cast <1544> out devils < 1140> by the Spirit <4151> of God <2316>, then <0686> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> is come <5348> unto you.

29 Or <2228> else how <4459> can <1410> one <5100> enter <1525> into <1519> a strong <2478> man's house <3614>, and spoil <1283> his goods <4632>, except <3362> he first <4412> bind <1210> the strong < 2478> man? and then <5119> he will spoil <1283> his house <3614>.

30 He that is not with me is against <2596> me; and he that gathereth <4863> not with me scattereth <4650> abroad < 4650>.

31 Wherefore <5124> I say <3004> unto you, All < 3956> manner of sin <0266> and blasphemy <0988> shall be forgiven <0863> unto men <0444>: but the blasphemy <0988> [against] the [Holy] Ghost <4151> shall not be forgiven <0863> unto men <0444>.

32 And whosoever <0302> speaketh <2036> a word < 3056> against <2596> the Son <5207> of man <0444>, it shall be forgiven <0863> him: but whosoever <0302> speaketh <2036> against <2596> the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>, it shall not be forgiven <0863> him, neither <3777> in this <5129> world <0165>, neither <3777> in the [world] to come <3195>.

33 Either <2228> make <4160> the tree <1186> good <2570>, and his fruit <2590> good <2570>; or < 2228> else make <4160> the tree <1186> corrupt <4550>, and his fruit <2590> corrupt <4550>: for the tree <1186> is known <1097> by [his] fruit <2590>.

34 O generation <1081> of vipers <2191>, how < 4459> can <1410> ye, being <5607> evil <4190>, speak <2980> good <0018> things? for out of the abundance < 4051> of the heart <2588> the mouth <4750> speaketh < 2980>.

35 A good <0018> man <0444> out of the good < 0018> treasure <2344> of the heart <2588> bringeth < 1544> forth <1544> good <0018> things: and an evil < 4190> man <0444> out of the evil <4190> treasure < 2344> bringeth <1544> forth evil <4190> things.

36 But I say <3004> unto you, That every <3956> idle <0692> word <4487> that men <0444> shall speak < 2980>, they shall give <0591> account <3056> thereof < 0846> in the day <2250> of judgment <2920>.

37 For by thy words <3056> thou shalt be justified < 1344>, and by thy words <3056> thou shalt be condemned < 2613>.

38. Then <5119> certain <5100> of the scribes < 1122> and of the Pharisees <5330> answered <0611>, saying <3004>, Master <1320>, we would <2309> see <1492> a sign <4592> from thee.

39 But he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, An evil <4190> and adulterous <3428> generation <1074> seeketh <1934> after <1934> a sign <4592>; and there shall no <3756> sign <4592> be given <1325> to it, but the sign <4592> of the prophet <4396> Jonas <2495>:

40 For as Jonas <2495> was three <5140> days < 2250> and three <5140> nights <3571> in the whale's < 2785> belly <2836>; so <3779> shall the Son <5207> of man <0444> be three <5140> days <2250> and three < 5140> nights <3571> in the heart <2588> of the earth < 1093>.

41 The men <0435> of Nineveh <3536> shall rise < 0450> in judgment <2920> with this <5026> generation < 1074>, and shall condemn <2632> it: because <3754> they repented <3340> at <1519> the preaching <2782> of Jonas <2495>; and, behold <2400>, a greater <4119> than Jonas <2495> [is] here <5602>.

42 The queen <0938> of the south <3558> shall rise <1453> up in the judgment <2920> with this <5026> generation <1074>, and shall condemn <2632> it: for she came <2064> from the uttermost <4009> parts of the earth < 1093> to hear <0191> the wisdom <4678> of Solomon < 4672>; and, behold <2400>, a greater <4119> than Solomon <4672> [is] here <5602>.

43 When <3752> the unclean <0169> spirit < 4151> is gone <1831> out of a man <0444>, he walketh < 1330> through <1223> dry <0504> places <5117>, seeking <2212> rest <0372>, and findeth <2147> none < 3756>.

44 Then <5119> he saith <3004>, I will return < 1994> into <1519> my house <3624> from whence <3606> I came <1831> out; and when he is come <2064>, he findeth < 2147> [it] empty <4980>, swept <4563>, and garnished < 2885>.

45 Then <5119> goeth <4198> he, and taketh < 3880> with himself <1438> seven <2033> other <2087> spirits <4151> more wicked <4191> than himself <1438>, and they enter <1525> in and dwell <2730> there <1563>: and the last <2078> [state] of that man <0444> is worse < 5501> than the first <4413>. Even so <3779> shall it be also <2532> unto this <5026> wicked <4190> generation <1074>.

46. While he yet <2089> talked <2980> to the people <3793>, behold <2400>, [his] mother <3384> and his brethren <0080> stood <2476> without <1854>, desiring <2212> to speak <2980> with him.

47 Then <5119> one <5100> said <2036> unto him, Behold <2400>, thy mother <3384> and thy brethren < 0080> stand <2476> without <1854>, desiring <2212> to speak <2980> with thee.

48 But he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto him that told <2036> him, Who <5101> is my mother <3384>? and who <5101> are my brethren <0080>?

49 And he stretched <1614> forth <1614> his hand <5495> toward <1909> his disciples <3101>, and said < 2036>, Behold <2400> my mother <3384> and my brethren < 0080>!

50 For whosoever <0302> shall do <4160> the will <2307> of my Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven < 3772>, the same <0846> is my brother <0080>, and sister < 0079>, and mother <3384>.

Matthew 13

1. The same <1565> day <2250> went <1831> Jesus <2424> out of the house <3614>, and sat <2521> by the sea <2281> side <3844>.

2 And great <4183> multitudes <3793> were gathered <4863> together <4863> unto him, so <5620> that he went <1684> into <1519> a ship <4143>, and sat <2521>; and the whole <3956> multitude <3793> stood <2476> on <1909> the shore <0123>.

3 And he spake <2980> many <4183> things unto them in parables <3850>, saying <3004>, Behold <2400>, a sower <4687> went <1831> forth <1831> to sow <4687> ;

4 And when <3588> he sowed <4687>, some <3588> [seeds] fell <4098> by the way <3598> side <3844>, and the fowls <4071> came <2064> and devoured <2719> them up:

5 Some <0243> fell <4098> upon stony <4075> places, where <3699> they had <2192> not much <4183> earth <1093>: and forthwith <2112> they sprung <1816> up, because <1223> they had <2192> no <3361> deepness < 0899> of earth <1093>:

6 And when the sun <2246> was up, they were scorched < 2739>; and because <1223> they had <2192> no <3361> root <4491>, they withered <3583> away.

7 And some <0243> fell <4098> among <1909> thorns <0173>; and the thorns <0173> sprung <0305> up, and choked <0638> them:

8 But other <0243> fell <4098> into <1909> good <2570> ground <1093>, and brought <1325> forth fruit <2590>, some <3588> an hundredfold <1540>, some <1161> sixtyfold <1835>, some <1161> thirtyfold < 5144>.

9 Who <3588> hath <2192> ears <3775> to hear <0191>, let him hear <0191>.

10 And the disciples <3101> came <4334>, and said <2036> unto him, Why <1302> speakest <2980> thou unto them in parables <3850>?

11 He answered <0611> and said <2063> unto them, Because <3754> it is given <1325> unto you to know <1097> the mysteries <3466> of the kingdom <0932> of heaven < 3772>, but to them it is not given <1325>.

12 For whosoever <3748> hath <2192>, to him shall be given <1325>, and he shall have more abundance <4052>: but whosoever <3748> hath <2192> not, from him shall be taken < 0142> away <0142> even <2532> that he hath <2192>.

13 Therefore <5124> speak <2980> I to them in parables <3850>: because <3754> they seeing <0991> see <0991> not; and hearing <0191> they hear <0191> not, neither <3761> do they understand <4920>.

14 And in them is fulfilled <0378> the prophecy < 4394> of Esaias <2268>, which <3588> saith <3004>, By hearing <0189> ye shall hear <0191>, and shall not understand <4920>; and seeing <0991> ye shall see <0991>, and shall not perceive <1492>:

15 For this <5127> people's <2992> heart < 2588> is waxed <3975> gross <3975>, and [their] ears < 3775> are dull <0917> of hearing <0191>, and their eyes < 3788> they have closed <2576>; lest <3379> at <3379> any <3379> time <3379> they should see <1492> with [their] eyes <3788>, and hear <0191> with [their] ears < 3775>, and should understand <4920> with [their] heart < 2588>, and should be converted <1994>, and I should heal < 2390> them.

16 But blessed <3107> [are] your <5216> eyes < 3788>, for they see <0991>: and your <5216> ears < 3775>, for they hear <0191>.

17 For verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, That many <4183> prophets <4396> and righteous <1342> [men] have desired <1939> to see <1492> [those things] which < 3739> ye see <0991>, and have not seen <1492> [them]; and to hear <0191> [those things] which <3739> ye hear <0191> , and have not heard <0191> [them].

18 Hear <0191> ye therefore <3767> the parable < 3850> of the sower <4687>.

19 When any <3956> one heareth <0191> the word < 3056> of the kingdom <0932>, and understandeth <4920> [it] not, then cometh <2064> the wicked <4190> [one], and catcheth <0726> away <0726> that which <3588> was sown < 4687> in his heart <2588>. This <3778> is he which < 3588> received <4687> seed <4687> by the way <3598> side <3844>.

20 But he that received <4687> the seed <4687> into <1909> stony <4075> places, the same <3778> is he that heareth <0191> the word <3056>, and anon <2117> with joy <5479> receiveth <2983> it;

21 Yet <1161> hath <2192> he not root <4491> in himself <1438>, but dureth <2076> for a while <4340>: for when tribulation <2347> or <2228> persecution <1375> ariseth <1096> because <1223> of the word <3056>, by and by he is offended <4624>.

22 He also <1161> that received <4687> seed < 4687> among <1519> the thorns <0173> is he that heareth < 0191> the word <3056>; and the care <3308> of this < 5127> world <0165>, and the deceitfulness <0539> of riches <4149>, choke <4846> the word <3056>, and he becometh <1096> unfruitful <0175>.

23 But he that received <4687> seed <4687> into < 1909> the good <2570> ground <1093> is he that heareth < 0191> the word <3056>, and understandeth <4920> [it]; which <3739> also <1211> beareth <2592> fruit <2592>, and bringeth <4160> forth <4160>, some <3303> an hundredfold <1540>, some <1161> sixty <1835>, some < 1161> thirty <5144>.

24. Another <0243> parable <3850> put <3908> he forth <3908> unto them, saying <3004>, The kingdom < 0932> of heaven <3772> is likened <3666> unto a man < 0444> which sowed <4687> good <2570> seed <4690> in his field <0068>:

25 But while <3588> men <0444> slept <2518>, his enemy <2190> came <2064> and sowed <4687> tares < 2215> among <3319> the wheat <4621>, and went <0565> his way.

26 But when <3753> the blade <5528> was sprung < 0985> up, and brought <4160> forth <4160> fruit <2590> , then <5119> appeared <5316> the tares <2215> also < 2532>.

27 So <1161> the servants <1401> of the householder <3617> came <4334> and said <2063> unto him, Sir < 2962>, didst not thou sow <4687> good <2570> seed < 4690> in thy field <0068>? from whence <4159> then < 3767> hath <2192> it tares <2215>?

28 He said <2063> unto them, An enemy <2190> hath done <4160> this <5124>. The servants <1401> said < 5346> unto him, Wilt <2309> thou then <3767> that we go < 0565> and gather <4816> them up?

29 But he said <5346>, Nay <3756>; lest <3379> while ye gather <4816> up the tares <2215>, ye root < 1610> up also <0260> the wheat <4621> with them.

30 Let <0863> both <0297> grow <4885> together <4885> until <3360> the harvest <2326>: and in the time <2540> of harvest <2326> I will say <2046> to the reapers <2327>, Gather <4816> ye together <4816> first <4412> the tares <2215>, and bind <1210> them in bundles <1197> to burn <2618> them: but gather <4863> the wheat <4621> into <1519> my barn <0596>.

31 Another <0243> parable <3850> put <3908> he forth <3908> unto them, saying <3004>, The kingdom < 0932> of heaven <3772> is like <3664> to a grain < 2848> of mustard <4615> seed, which <3739> a man < 0444> took <2983>, and sowed <4687> in his field < 0068>:

32 Which <3739> indeed <3303> is the least < 3398> of all <3956> seeds <4690>: but when <3752> it is grown <0837>, it is the greatest <3187> among herbs < 3001>, and becometh <1096> a tree <1186>, so <5620> that the birds <4071> of the air <3772> come <2064> and lodge <2681> in the branches <2798> thereof <0846>.

33 Another <0243> parable <3850> spake <2980> he unto them; The kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is like < 3664> unto leaven <2219>, which <3739> a woman <1135> took <2983>, and hid <1470> in three <5140> measures < 4568> of meal <0224>, till <2193> the whole <3650> was leavened <2220>.

34 All <3956> these <5023> things spake <2980> Jesus <2424> unto the multitude <3793> in parables < 3850>; and without <5565> a parable <3850> spake < 2980> he not unto them:

35 That it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> by the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>, I will open <0455> my mouth <4750> in parables <3850>; I will utter <2044> things which have been kept secret <2928> from the foundation <2602> of the world <2889>.

36 Then <5119> Jesus <2424> sent <0863> the multitude <3793> away <0863>, and went <2064> into < 1519> the house <3614>: and his disciples <3101> came < 4334> unto him, saying <3004>, Declare <5419> unto us the parable <3850> of the tares <2215> of the field <0068>.

37 He answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, He that soweth <4687> the good <2570> seed <4690> is the Son <5207> of man <0444>;

38 The field <0068> is the world <2889>; the good <2570> seed <4690> are the children <5207> of the kingdom <0932>; but the tares <2215> are the children < 5207> of the wicked <4190> [one];

39 The enemy <2190> that sowed <4687> them is the devil <1228>; the harvest <2326> is the end <4930> of the world <0165>; and the reapers <2327> are the angels < 0032>.

40 As therefore <3767> the tares <2215> are gathered <4816> and burned <2618> in the fire <4442>; so <3779> shall it be in the end <4930> of this <5127> world <0165>.

41 The Son <5207> of man <0444> shall send < 0649> forth <0649> his angels <0032>, and they shall gather <4816> out of his kingdom <0932> all <3956> things that offend <4625>, and them which do <4160> iniquity <0458>;

42 And shall cast <0906> them into <1519> a furnace <2575> of fire <4442>: there <1563> shall be wailing < 2805> and gnashing <1030> of teeth <3599>.

43 Then <5119> shall the righteous <1342> shine < 1584> forth <1584> as the sun <2246> in the kingdom < 0932> of their Father <3962>. Who <3588> hath <2192> ears <3775> to hear <0191>, let him hear <0191>.

44. Again <3825>, the kingdom <0932> of heaven < 3772> is like <3664> unto treasure <2344> hid <2928> in a field <0068>; the which <3739> when a man <0444> hath found <2147>, he hideth <2928>, and for joy <5479> thereof <0846> goeth <5217> and selleth <4453> all < 3956> that he hath <2192>, and buyeth <0059> that field < 0068>.

45 Again <3825>, the kingdom <0932> of heaven < 3772> is like <3664> unto a merchant <1713> man <0444> , seeking <2212> goodly <2573> pearls <3135>:

46 Who <3739>, when he had found <2147> one < 1520> pearl <3135> of great <4186> price <4186>, went <0565> and sold <4097> all <3956> that he had < 2192>, and bought <0059> it.

47 Again <3825>, the kingdom <0932> of heaven < 3772> is like <3664> unto a net <4522>, that was cast < 0906> into <1519> the sea <2281>, and gathered <4863> of every <3956> kind <1085>:

48 Which <3739>, when <3753> it was full < 4137>, they drew <0307> to shore <0123>, and sat < 2523> down <2523>, and gathered <4816> the good <2570> into <1519> vessels <0030>, but cast <0906> the bad < 4550> away <1854>.

49 So <3779> shall it be at <1722> the end < 4930> of the world <0165>: the angels <0032> shall come < 1831> forth <3318>, and sever <0873> the wicked <4190> from among <3319> the just <1342>,

50 And shall cast <0906> them into <1519> the furnace <2575> of fire <4442>: there <1563> shall be wailing <2805> and gnashing <1030> of teeth <3599>.

51 Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto them, Have ye understood <4920> all <3956> these <5023> things? They say <3004> unto him, Yea <3483>, Lord <2962>.

52 Then <1161> said <2036> he unto them, Therefore <5124> every <3956> scribe <1122> [which is] instructed <3100> unto the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is like <3664> unto a man <0444> [that is] an householder <3617>, which <3748> bringeth <1544> forth <1544> out of his treasure <2344> [things] new <2537> and old <3820>.

53. And it came <1096> to pass, [that] when <3753> Jesus <2424> had finished <5055> these <5025> parables <3850>, he departed <3332> thence <1564>.

54 And when he was come <2064> into <1519> his own country <3968>, he taught <1321> them in their synagogue < 4864>, insomuch <5620> that they were astonished <1605>, and said <3004>, Whence <4159> hath this <3778> [man] this <3778> wisdom <4678>, and [these <3588>] mighty < 1411> works?

55 Is not this <3778> the carpenter's <5045> son <5207>? is not his mother <3384> called <3004> Mary < 3137>? and his brethren <0080>, James <2385>, and Joses < 2500>, and Simon <4613>, and Judas <2455>?

56 And his sisters <0079>, are they not all <3956> with us? Whence <4159> then <3767> hath this <5129> [man] all <3956> these <5023> things?

57 And they were offended <4624> in him. But Jesus < 2424> said <2036> unto them, A prophet <4396> is not without <0820> honour <0820>, save <1508> in his own country <3968>, and in his own house <3614>.

58 And he did <4160> not many <4183> mighty < 1411> works there <1563> because <1223> of their unbelief <0570>.

Matthew 14

1. At <1722> that time <2540> Herod <2264> the tetrarch <5076> heard <0191> of the fame <0189> of Jesus <2424>,

2 And said <2036> unto his servants <3816>, This <3778> is John <2491> the Baptist <0910>; he is risen <1453> from the dead <3498>; and therefore <5124> mighty <1411> works do shew <1754> forth <1754> themselves in him.

3 For Herod <2264> had laid hold <2902> on John < 2491>, and bound <1210> him, and put <5087> [him] in prison <5438> for Herodias <2266>' sake, his brother <0080> Philip's <5376> wife <1135>.

4 For John <2491> said <3004> unto him, It is not lawful <1832> for thee to have <2192> her.

5 And when he would <2309> have put <0615> him to death <0615>, he feared <5399> the multitude <3793>, because <3754> they counted <2192> him as a prophet < 4396>.

6 But when Herod's <2264> birthday <1077> was kept <0071>, the daughter <2364> of Herodias <2266> danced <3738> before <3319> them, and pleased <0700> Herod < 2264>.

7 Whereupon <3606> he promised <3670> with an oath <3727> to give <1325> her whatsoever <1437> she would ask <0154>.

8 And she, being before <4264> instructed <4264> of her mother <3384>, said <5346>, Give <1325> me here < 5602> John <2491> Baptist's <0910> head <2776> in a charger <4094>.

9 And the king <0935> was sorry <3076>: nevertheless for the oath's <3727> sake, and them which sat < 4873> with him at <4873> meat, he commanded <2753> [it] to be given <1325> [her].

10 And he sent <3992>, and beheaded <0607> John < 2491> in the prison <5438>.

11 And his head <2776> was brought <5342> in a charger <4094>, and given <1325> to the damsel <2877>: and she brought <5342> [it] to her mother <3384>.

12 And his disciples <3101> came <4334>, and took <0142> up the body <4983>, and buried <2290> it, and went <2064> and told <0518> Jesus <2424>.

13. When Jesus <2424> heard <0191> [of it], he departed <0402> thence <1564> by ship <4143> into < 1519> a desert <2048> place <5117> apart <2398>: and when the people <3793> had heard <0191> [thereof], they followed <0190> him on <3979> foot <3979> out of the cities <4172>.

14 And Jesus <2424> went <1831> forth <1831>, and saw <1492> a great <4183> multitude <3793>, and was moved <4697> with compassion <4697> toward <1909> them, and he healed <2323> their sick <0732>.

15 And when it was evening <3798>, his disciples < 3101> came <4334> to him, saying <3004>, This <3588> is a desert <2048> place <5117>, and the time <5610> is now <2236> past <3928>; send <0630> the multitude < 3793> away <0630>, that they may go <0565> into <1519> the villages <2968>, and buy <0059> themselves <1438> victuals <1033>.

16 But Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, They need <5532> not depart <0565>; give <1325> ye them to eat <5315>.

17 And they say <3004> unto him, We have <2192> here <5602> but five <4002> loaves <0740>, and two < 1417> fishes <2486>.

18 He said <2036>, Bring <5342> them hither < 5602> to me.

19 And he commanded <2753> the multitude <3793> to sit <0347> down <0347> on <1909> the grass <5528>, and took <2983> the five <4002> loaves <0740>, and the two <1417> fishes <2486>, and looking <0308> up to heaven <3772>, he blessed <2127>, and brake <2806>, and gave <1325> the loaves <0740> to [his] disciples <3101>, and the disciples <3101> to the multitude <3793>.

20 And they did all <3956> eat <5315>, and were filled <5526>: and they took <0142> up of the fragments < 2801> that remained <4052> twelve <1427> baskets < 2894> full <4134>.

21 And they that had eaten <2068> were about <5616> five <4000> thousand <4000> men <0435>, beside < 5565> women <1135> and children <3813>.

22. And straightway <2112> Jesus <2424> constrained <0315> his disciples <3101> to get <1684> into < 1519> a ship <4143>, and to go <4254> before <4254> him unto the other <4008> side <4008>, while <2193> he sent <0630> the multitudes <3793> away <0630>.

23 And when he had sent <0630> the multitudes <3793> away <0630>, he went <0305> up into <1519> a mountain <3735> apart <2398> to pray <4336>: and when the evening <3798> was come <1096>, he was there <1563> alone < 3441>.

24 But the ship <4143> was now <2236> in the midst <3319> of the sea <2281>, tossed <0928> with waves < 2949>: for the wind <0417> was contrary <1727>.

25 And in the fourth <5067> watch <5438> of the night <3571> Jesus <2424> went <0565> unto them, walking <4043> on <1909> the sea <2281>.

26 And when the disciples <3101> saw <1492> him walking <4043> on <1909> the sea <2281>, they were troubled <5015>, saying <3004>, It is a spirit <5326>; and they cried <2896> out for fear <5401>.

27 But straightway <2112> Jesus <2424> spake < 2980> unto them, saying <3004>, Be of good cheer <2293>; it is I; be not afraid <5399>.

28 And Peter <4074> answered <0611> him and said <2036>, Lord <2962>, if <1487> it be thou, bid < 2753> me come <2064> unto thee on <1909> the water < 5204>.

29 And he said <2036>, Come <2064>. And when Peter <4074> was come <2597> down <2597> out of the ship < 4143>, he walked <4043> on <1909> the water <5204>, to go <2064> to Jesus <2424>.

30 But when he saw <0991> the wind <0417> boisterous <2478>, he was afraid <5399>; and beginning < 0756> to sink <2670>, he cried <2896>, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, save <4982> me.

31 And immediately <2112> Jesus <2424> stretched <1614> forth <1614> [his] hand <5495>, and caught < 1949> him, and said <3004> unto him, O thou of little <3640> faith <3640>, wherefore <5101> didst thou doubt <1365>?

32 And when they were come <1684> into <1519> the ship <4143>, the wind <0417> ceased <2869>.

33 Then <1161> they that were in the ship <4143> came <2064> and worshipped <4352> him, saying <3004>, Of a truth <0230> thou art the Son <5207> of God <2316>.

34. And when they were gone <1276> over <1276>, they came <2064> into <1519> the land <1093> of Gennesaret <1082>.

35 And when the men <0435> of that place <5117> had knowledge <1921> of him, they sent <0649> out into <1519> all <3650> that country <4066> round <4066> about < 4066>, and brought <4374> unto him all <3956> that were diseased <2192>;

36 And besought <3870> him that they might only < 3440> touch <0680> the hem <2899> of his garment < 2440>: and as many <3745> as touched <0680> were made < 1295> perfectly <1295> whole <1295>.

Matthew 15

1. Then <5119> came <4334> to Jesus <2424> scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, which <3588> were of Jerusalem <2414>, saying <3004>,

2 Why <1302> do thy disciples <3101> transgress < 3845> the tradition <3862> of the elders <4245>? for they wash <3538> not their hands <5495> when <3752> they eat <2068> bread <0740>.

3 But he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, Why <1302> do ye also <2532> transgress <3845> the commandment <1785> of God <2316> by your <5216> tradition <3862>?

4 For God <2316> commanded <1781>, saying < 3004>, Honour <5091> thy father <3962> and mother < 3384>: and, He that curseth <2551> father <3962> or < 2228> mother <3384>, let him die <5053> the death < 2288>.

5 But ye say <3004>, Whosoever <0302> shall say < 2036> to [his] father <3962> or <2228> [his] mother < 3384>, [It is] a gift <1435>, by whatsoever <1437> thou mightest be profited <5623> by me;

6 And honour <5091> not his father <3962> or < 2228> his mother <3384>, [he shall be free]. Thus <2532> have ye made <0208> the commandment <1785> of God <2316> of none <0208> effect <0208> by your <5216> tradition <3862>.

7 [Ye] hypocrites <5273>, well <2573> did Esaias <2268> prophesy <4395> of you, saying <3004>,

8 This <3778> people <2992> draweth nigh < 1448> unto me with their mouth <4750>, and honoureth <5091> me with [their] lips <5491>; but their heart <2588> is far < 4206> from me.

9 But in vain <3155> they do worship <4576> me, teaching <1321> [for] doctrines <1319> the commandments < 1778> of men <0444>.

10. And he called <4341> the multitude <3793>, and said <2036> unto them, Hear <0191>, and understand <4920> :

11 Not that which goeth <1525> into <1519> the mouth <4750> defileth <2840> a man <0444>; but that which cometh <1607> out of the mouth <4750>, this <5124> defileth <2840> a man <0444>.

12 Then <5119> came <4334> his disciples < 3101>, and said <2036> unto him, Knowest <1492> thou that the Pharisees <5330> were offended <4624>, after they heard <0191> this <3588> saying <3056>?

13 But he answered <0611> and said <2036>, Every <3956> plant <5451>, which <3739> my heavenly < 3770> Father <3962> hath not planted <5452>, shall be rooted <1610> up.

14 Let <0863> them alone <0863>: they be blind < 5185> leaders <3595> of the blind <5185>. And if < 1437> the blind <5185> lead <3594> the blind <5185>, both <0297> shall fall <4098> into <1519> the ditch < 0999>.

15 Then <1161> answered <0611> Peter <4074> and said <2036> unto him, Declare <5419> unto us this < 5026> parable <3850>.

16 And Jesus <2424> said <2036>, Are ye also < 2532> yet <0188> without <0801> understanding <0801>?

17 Do not ye yet <3768> understand <3539>, that whatsoever <3956> entereth <1531> in at <1519> the mouth <4750> goeth <5562> into <1519> the belly <2836>, and is cast <1544> out into <1519> the draught <0856>?

18 But those <3588> things which <3588> proceed < 1607> out of the mouth <4750> come <1831> forth <3318> from the heart <2588>; and they defile <2840> the man < 0444>.

19 For out of the heart <2588> proceed <1831> evil <4190> thoughts <1261>, murders <5408>, adulteries < 3430>, fornications <4202>, thefts <2829>, false < 5577> witness <5577>, blasphemies <0988>:

20 These <5023> are [the things] which <3588> defile <2840> a man <0444>: but to eat <5315> with unwashen <0449> hands <5495> defileth <2840> not a man <0444>.

21. Then <2532> Jesus <2424> went <1831> thence <1564>, and departed <0402> into <1519> the coasts <3313> of Tyre <5184> and Sidon <4605>.

22 And, behold <2400>, a woman <1135> of Canaan < 5478> came <1831> out of the same <1565> coasts <3725> , and cried <2905> unto him, saying <3004>, Have mercy < 1653> on me, O Lord <2962>, [thou] Son <5207> of David < 1138>; my daughter <2364> is grievously <2560> vexed < 1139> with a devil <1139>.

23 But he answered <0611> her not a word <3056>. And his disciples <3101> came <4334> and besought <2065> him, saying <3004>, Send <0630> her away <0630>; for she crieth <2896> after <3693> us.

24 But he answered <0611> and said <2036>, I am not sent <0649> but unto the lost <0622> sheep <4263> of the house <3624> of Israel <2474>.

25 Then <1161> came <2064> she and worshipped < 4352> him, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, help <0997> me.

26 But he answered <0611> and said <2036>, It is not meet <2570> to take <2983> the children's <5043> bread <0740>, and to cast <0906> [it] to dogs <2952>.

27 And she said <2036>, Truth <3483>, Lord < 2962>: yet <1063> the dogs <2952> eat <2068> of the crumbs <5589> which <3588> fall <4098> from their masters <2962>' table <5132>.

28 Then <5119> Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036> unto her, O woman <1135>, great <3173> [is] thy faith <4102>: be it unto thee even as thou wilt <2309> . And her daughter <2364> was made <2390> whole <3390> from that very <1565> hour <5610>.

29. And Jesus <2424> departed <3327> from thence < 1564>, and came <2064> nigh <3844> unto the sea <2281> of Galilee <1056>; and went <0305> up into <1519> a mountain <3735>, and sat <2521> down <2521> there < 1563>.

30 And great <4183> multitudes <3793> came < 4334> unto him, having <2192> with them [those that were] lame <5560>, blind <5185>, dumb <2974>, maimed <2948>, and many <4183> others <2087>, and cast <4496> them down <4496> at <3844> Jesus <2424>' feet <4228>; and he healed <2323> them:

31 Insomuch <5620> that the multitude <3793> wondered <2296>, when they saw <0991> the dumb <2974> to speak <2980>, the maimed <2948> to be whole <5199>, the lame <5560> to walk <4043>, and the blind <5185> to see <0991>: and they glorified <1392> the God <2316> of Israel <2474>.

32 Then <1161> Jesus <2424> called <4341> his disciples <3101> [unto him], and said <2036>, I have compassion <4697> on <1909> the multitude <3793>, because <3754> they continue <4357> with me now <2236> three <5140> days <2250>, and have <2192> nothing < 5101> to eat <5315>: and I will <2309> not send <0630> them away <0630> fasting <3523>, lest <3379> they faint <1590> in the way <3598>.

33 And his disciples <3101> say <3004> unto him, Whence <4159> should we have so <5118> much <5118> bread <0740> in the wilderness <2047>, as to fill <5526> so <5118> great <5118> a multitude <3793>?

34 And Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto them, How < 4214> many <4214> loaves <0740> have <2192> ye? And they said <2036>, Seven <2033>, and a few <3641> little <2485> fishes <2485>.

35 And he commanded <2753> the multitude <3793> to sit <0377> down <0377> on <1909> the ground <1093>.

36 And he took <2983> the seven <2033> loaves < 0740> and the fishes <2486>, and gave <1325> thanks < 2168>, and brake <2806> [them], and gave <1325> to his disciples <3101>, and the disciples <3101> to the multitude <3793>.

37 And they did all <3956> eat <5315>, and were filled <5526>: and they took <0142> up of the broken < 2801> [meat] that was left <4052> seven <2033> baskets < 4711> full <4134>.

38 And they that did eat <2068> were four <5070> thousand <5070> men <0435>, beside <5565> women < 1135> and children <3813>.

39 And he sent <0630> away <0630> the multitude < 3793>, and took <1519> ship <4143>, and came <2064> into <1519> the coasts <3725> of Magdala <3093>.

Matthew 16

1. The Pharisees <5330> also <2532> with the Sadducees <4523> came <4334>, and tempting <3985> desired <1905> him that he would shew <1925> them a sign < 4592> from heaven <3772>.

2 He answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, When it is evening <3798>, ye say <3004>, [It will be] fair <2105> weather <2105>: for the sky <3772> is red < 4449>.

3 And in the morning <4404>, [It will be] foul < 5494> weather <5494> to day <4594>: for the sky <3772> is red <4449> and lowring <4768>. O [ye] hypocrites < 5273>, ye can <1097> discern <1252> the face <4383> of the sky <3772>; but can <1410> ye not [discern] the signs <4592> of the times <2540>?

4 A wicked <4190> and adulterous <3428> generation <1074> seeketh <1934> after <1934> a sign <4592>; and there shall no <3756> sign <4592> be given <1325> unto it, but the sign <4592> of the prophet <4396> Jonas < 2495>. And he left <2641> them, and departed <0565>.

5. And when his disciples <3101> were come <2064> to the other <4008> side <4008>, they had forgotten <1950> to take <2983> bread <0740>.

6 Then <1161> Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, Take heed <3708> and beware <4337> of the leaven < 2219> of the Pharisees <5330> and of the Sadducees <4523>.

7 And they reasoned <1260> among <1722> themselves <1438>, saying <3004>, [It is] because <3754> we have taken <2983> no <3756> bread <0740>.

8 [Which] when Jesus <2424> perceived <1097>, he said <2036> unto them, O ye of little <3640> faith <3640> , why <5101> reason <1260> ye among <1722> yourselves <1438>, because <3754> ye have brought <2983> no < 3756> bread <0740>?

9 Do ye not yet <3768> understand <3539>, neither <3761> remember <3421> the five <4002> loaves < 0740> of the five <4000> thousand <4000>, and how < 4214> many <4214> baskets <2894> ye took <2983> up?

10 Neither <3761> the seven <2033> loaves < 0740> of the four <5070> thousand <5070>, and how < 4214> many <4214> baskets <4711> ye took <2983> up?

11 How <4459> is it that ye do not understand <3539> that I spake <2036> [it] not to you concerning <4012> bread <0740>, that ye should beware <4337> of the leaven <2219> of the Pharisees <5330> and of the Sadducees <4523>?

12 Then <5119> understood <4920> they how that he bade <2036> [them] not beware <4337> of the leaven <2219> of bread <0740>, but of the doctrine <1322> of the Pharisees <5330> and of the Sadducees <4523>.

13. When Jesus <2424> came <2064> into <1519> the coasts <3313> of Caesarea <2542> Philippi <2542>, he asked <2065> his disciples <3101>, saying <3004>, Whom <5101> do men <0444> say <3004> that I the Son < 5207> of man <0444> am <1511>?

14 And they said <2036>, Some <3588> [say that thou art] John <2491> the Baptist <0910>: some <3588>, Elias <2243>; and others <2087>, Jeremias <2408>, or < 2228> one <1520> of the prophets <4396>.

15 He saith <3004> unto them, But whom <5101> say <3004> ye that I am <1511>?

16 And Simon <4613> Peter <4074> answered < 0611> and said <2036>, Thou art <1488> the Christ < 5547>, the Son <5207> of the living <2198> God <2316>.

17 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto him, Blessed <3107> art <1488> thou, Simon < 4613> Barjona <0920>: for flesh <4561> and blood < 0129> hath not revealed <0601> [it] unto thee, but my Father < 3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

18 And I say <3004> also <1161> unto thee, That thou art <1488> Peter <4074>, and upon this <5026> rock <4073> I will build <3618> my church <1577>; and the gates <4439> of hell <0086> shall not prevail <2729> against <2729> it.

19 And I will give <1325> unto thee the keys <2807> of the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>: and whatsoever < 1437> thou shalt bind <1210> on <1909> earth <1093> shall be bound <1210> in heaven <3772>: and whatsoever < 1437> thou shalt loose <3089> on <1909> earth <1093> shall be loosed <3089> in heaven <3772>.

20 Then <5119> charged <1291> he his disciples < 3101> that they should tell <2036> no <3762> man < 3367> that he was Jesus <2424> the Christ <5547>.

21. From that time <5119> forth began <0756> Jesus <2424> to shew <1166> unto his disciples <3101>, how that he must <1163> go <0565> unto Jerusalem <2414>, and suffer <3958> many <4183> things of the elders <4245> and chief <0749> priests <0749> and scribes <1122>, and be killed <0615>, and be raised <1453> again <1453> the third <5154> day <2250>.

22 Then <2532> Peter <4074> took <4355> him, and began <0756> to rebuke <2008> him, saying <3004>, Be it far <2436> from thee, Lord <2962>: this <5124> shall not be unto thee.

23 But he turned <4672>, and said <2036> unto Peter <4074>, Get <5217> thee behind <3694> me, Satan < 4567>: thou art <1488> an offence <4625> unto me: for thou savourest <5426> not the things that be of God <2316>, but those <3588> that be of men <0444>.

24. Then <5119> said <2036> Jesus <2424> unto his disciples <3101>, If <1487> any <1536> [man] will <2309> come <2064> after <3694> me, let him deny < 0533> himself <1438>, and take <0142> up his cross < 4716>, and follow <0190> me.

25 For whosoever <0302> will <2309> save < 4982> his life <5590> shall lose <0622> it: and whosoever <0302> will lose <0622> his life <5590> for my sake < 1752> shall find <2147> it.

26 For what <5101> is a man <0444> profited < 5623>, if <1437> he shall gain <2770> the whole <3650> world <2889>, and lose <2210> his own soul <5590>? or <2228> what <5101> shall a man <0444> give <1325> in exchange <0465> for his soul <5590>?

27 For the Son <5207> of man <0444> shall come < 2064> in the glory <1391> of his Father <3962> with his angels <0032>; and then <5119> he shall reward <0591> every <1538> man according <2596> to his works <4234>.

28 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, There be some <5100> standing <2476> here <5602>, which < 3748> shall not taste <1089> of death <2288>, till < 2193> they see <1492> the Son <5207> of man <0444> coming <2064> in his kingdom <0932>.

Matthew 17

1. And after <3326> six <1803> days <2250> Jesus <2424> taketh <3880> Peter <4074>, James < 2385>, and John <2491> his brother <0080>, and bringeth < 0399> them up into <1519> an high <5308> mountain < 3735> apart <2398>,

2 And was transfigured <3339> before <1715> them: and his face <4383> did shine <2989> as the sun <2246>, and his raiment <2440> was white <3022> as the light < 5457>.

3 And, behold <2400>, there appeared <3700> unto them Moses <3475> and Elias <2243> talking <4814> with him.

4 Then <1161> answered <0611> Peter <4074>, and said <2036> unto Jesus <2424>, Lord <2962>, it is good <2570> for us to be here <5602>: if <1487> thou wilt <2309>, let us make <4160> here <5602> three < 5140> tabernacles <4633>; one <3391> for thee, and one < 3391> for Moses <3475>, and one <3391> for Elias < 2243>.

5 While he yet <2089> spake <2980>, behold < 2400>, a bright <5460> cloud <3507> overshadowed < 1982> them: and behold <2400> a voice <5456> out of the cloud <3507>, which said <3004>, This <3778> is my beloved <0027> Son <5207>, in whom <3939> I am well < 2106> pleased <2106>; hear <0191> ye him.

6 And when the disciples <3101> heard <0191> [it], they fell <4098> on <1909> their face <4383>, and were sore <4970> afraid <5399>.

7 And Jesus <2424> came <4334> and touched < 0680> them, and said <2036>, Arise <1453>, and be not afraid <5399>.

8 And when they had lifted <1869> up their eyes < 3788>, they saw <1492> no <3762> man <3762>, save < 1508> Jesus <2424> only <3441>.

9 And as they came <2597> down <2597> from the mountain <3735>, Jesus <2424> charged <1781> them, saying <3004>, Tell <2036> the vision <3705> to no < 3762> man <3367>, until <2193> the Son <5207> of man <0444> be risen <0450> again <0450> from the dead < 3498>.

10 And his disciples <3101> asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, Why <5101> then <3767> say <3004> the scribes <1122> that Elias <2243> must <1163> first <4412> come <2064>?

11 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto them, Elias <2243> truly <3303> shall first < 4412> come <2064>, and restore <0600> all <3956> things.

12 But I say <3004> unto you, That Elias <2243> is come <2064> already <2235>, and they knew <1912> him not, but have done <4160> unto him whatsoever <3745> they listed <2309>. Likewise <3779> shall also <2532> the Son < 5207> of man <0444> suffer <3958> of them.

13 Then <5119> the disciples <3101> understood < 4920> that he spake <2036> unto them of John <2491> the Baptist <0910>.

14. And when they were come <2064> to the multitude < 3793>, there came <4334> to him a [certain] man <0444>, kneeling <1120> down to him, and saying <3004>,

15 Lord <2962>, have mercy <1653> on my son < 5207>: for he is lunatick <4583>, and sore <2560> vexed < 3958>: for ofttimes <4178> he falleth <4098> into < 1519> the fire <4442>, and oft <4178> into <1519> the water <5204>.

16 And I brought <4374> him to thy disciples <3101>, and they could <1410> not cure <2323> him.

17 Then <1161> Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036>, O faithless <0571> and perverse <1294> generation <1074>, how <2193> long <2193> shall I be with you? how <4219> long <2193> shall I suffer <0430> you? bring <5342> him hither <5602> to me.

18 And Jesus <2424> rebuked <2008> the devil < 1140>; and he departed <1831> out of him: and the child < 3816> was cured <2323> from that very <1565> hour < 5610>.

19 Then <5119> came <4334> the disciples < 3101> to Jesus <2424> apart <2398>, and said <2036>, Why <1302> could <1410> not we cast <1544> him out?

20 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, Because <1223> of your <5216> unbelief <0570>: for verily < 0281> I say <3004> unto you, If <1437> ye have <2192> faith <4102> as a grain <2848> of mustard <4615> seed, ye shall say <2046> unto this <5129> mountain <3735>, Remove <3327> hence <1782> to yonder <1563> place; and it shall remove <3327>; and nothing <3762> shall be impossible <0101> unto you.

21 Howbeit this <5124> kind <1085> goeth < 1607> not out but by prayer <4335> and fasting <3521>.

22. And while they abode <0390> in Galilee <1056>, Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, The Son <5207> of man <0444> shall be betrayed <3860> into <1519> the hands <5495> of men <0444>:

23 And they shall kill <0615> him, and the third < 5154> day <2250> he shall be raised <1453> again < 1453>. And they were exceeding <4970> sorry <3076>.

24. And when they were come <2064> to Capernaum < 2584>, they that received <2983> tribute <1323> [money] came <4334> to Peter <4074>, and said <2036>, Doth not your <5216> master <1320> pay <5055> tribute <1323> ?

25 He saith <3004>, Yes <3483>. And when < 3753> he was come <1525> into <1519> the house <3614>, Jesus <2424> prevented <4399> him, saying <3004>, What <5101> thinkest <1380> thou, Simon <4613>? of whom < 5101> do the kings <0935> of the earth <1093> take < 2983> custom <5056> or <2228> tribute <2778>? of their own children <5207>, or <2228> of strangers <0245>?

26 Peter <4074> saith <3004> unto him, Of strangers <0245>. Jesus <2424> saith <5346> unto him, Then < 0686> are the children <5207> free <1658>.

27 Notwithstanding, lest <3361> we should offend < 4624> them, go <4198> thou to the sea <2281>, and cast < 0906> an hook <0044>, and take <0142> up the fish < 2486> that first <4413> cometh <0305> up; and when thou hast opened <0455> his mouth <4750>, thou shalt find < 2147> a piece of money <4715>: that take <2983>, and give <1325> unto them for me and thee.

Matthew 18

1. At <1722> the same <1565> time <5610> came <4334> the disciples <3101> unto Jesus <2424>, saying <3004>, Who <5101> is the greatest <3187> in the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>?

2 And Jesus <2424> called <4341> a little < 3813> child <3813> unto him, and set <2476> him in the midst <3319> of them,

3 And said <2036>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Except <3362> ye be converted <4762>, and become < 1096> as little <3813> children <3813>, ye shall not enter <1525> into <1519> the kingdom <0932> of heaven < 3772>.

4 Whosoever <3748> therefore <3767> shall humble <5013> himself <1438> as this <5124> little <3813> child <3813>, the same <3778> is greatest <3187> in the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

5 And whoso <0302> shall receive <1209> one < 1520> such <5108> little <3813> child <3813> in my name <3686> receiveth <1209> me.

6 But whoso <0302> shall offend <4624> one < 1520> of these <5130> little <3398> ones which <3588> believe <4100> in me, it were better <4851> for him that a millstone <3684> were hanged <2910> about <1909> his neck <5137>, and [that] he were drowned <2670> in the depth <3989> of the sea <2281>.

7. Woe <3759> unto the world <2889> because < 0575> of offences <4625>! for it must <0318> needs < 0318> be that offences <4625> come <2064>; but woe < 3759> to that man <0444> by whom <3739> the offence < 4625> cometh <2064>!

8 Wherefore <1161> if <1487> thy hand <5495> or <2228> thy foot <4228> offend <4624> thee, cut < 1581> them off <1581>, and cast <0906> [them] from thee: it is better <2570> for thee to enter <1525> into <1519> life <2222> halt <5560> or <2228> maimed <2948>, rather <2228> than <2228> having <2192> two <1417> hands <5495> or <2228> two <1417> feet <4228> to be cast <0906> into <1519> everlasting <0166> fire < 4442>.

9 And if <1487> thine <4675> eye <3788> offend <4624> thee, pluck <1807> it out, and cast <0906> [it] from thee: it is better <2570> for thee to enter <1525> into <1519> life <2222> with one <3442> eye <3442>, rather <2228> than <2228> having <2192> two <1417> eyes <3788> to be cast <0906> into <1519> hell < 1067> fire <4442>.

10 Take heed <3708> that ye despise <2706> not one <1520> of these <5130> little <3398> ones; for I say < 3004> unto you, That in heaven <3772> their angels <0032> do always <3956> behold <0991> the face <4383> of my Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

11 For the Son <5207> of man <0444> is come < 2064> to save <4982> that which <3588> was lost <0622> .

12 How <5101> think <1380> ye? if <1437> a man <0444> have <1099> an hundred <1540> sheep < 4263>, and one <1520> of them be gone <4105> astray < 4105>, doth he not leave <0863> the ninety <1768> and nine <1768>, and goeth <4198> into <1909> the mountains < 3735>, and seeketh <2212> that which <3588> is gone astray <4105>?

13 And if <1437> so <1437> be that he find < 2147> it, verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, he rejoiceth <5463> more <3123> of that [sheep], than <2228> of the ninety <1768> and nine <1768> which <3588> went < 4105> not astray <4105>.

14 Even so <3779> it is not the will <2307> of your <5216> Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven < 3772>, that one <1520> of these <5130> little <3398> ones should perish <0622>.

15. Moreover <1161> if <1437> thy brother < 0080> shall trespass <0264> against <1519> thee, go < 5217> and tell <1650> him his fault <1651> between < 3342> thee and him alone <3441>: if <1437> he shall hear <0191> thee, thou hast gained <2770> thy brother <0080>.

16 But if <1437> he will not hear <0191> [thee, then] take <3880> with thee one <1520> or <2228> two < 1417> more <2089>, that in the mouth <4750> of two < 1417> or <2228> three <5140> witnesses <3144> every <3956> word <4487> may be established <2476>.

17 And if <1437> he shall neglect <3878> to hear <3878> them, tell <2036> [it] unto the church <1577>: but if <1437> he neglect <3878> to hear <3878> the church <1577>, let him be unto thee as an heathen <1482> man and a publican <5057>.

18 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Whatsoever <1437> ye shall bind <1210> on <1909> earth <1093> shall be bound <1210> in heaven <3772>: and whatsoever < 1437> ye shall loose <3089> on <1909> earth <1093> shall be loosed <3089> in heaven <3772>.

19 Again <3825> I say <3004> unto you, That if < 1437> two <1417> of you shall agree <4856> on <1909> earth <1093> as touching <4012> any <3956> thing that they shall ask <0154>, it shall be done <1096> for them of my Father <3962> which <3588> is in heaven <3772>.

20 For where <3757> two <1417> or <2228> three <5140> are gathered <4863> together <4863> in my name <3686>, there <1563> am <1510> I in the midst < 3319> of them.

21. Then <5119> came <4334> Peter <4074> to him, and said <2036>, Lord <2962>, how <4212> oft < 4212> shall my brother <0080> sin <0264> against < 1519> me, and I forgive <0863> him? till <2193> seven < 2034> times <2034>?

22 Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto him, I say < 3004> not unto thee, Until <2193> seven <2034> times < 2034>: but, Until <2193> seventy <1441> times <1441> seven <2033>.

23 Therefore <5124> is the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> likened <3666> unto a certain <0444> king < 0935>, which <3739> would <2309> take <4868> account <3056> of his servants <1401>.

24 And when he had begun <0756> to reckon <4868>, one <1520> was brought <4374> unto him, which owed <3781> him ten <3463> thousand <3463> talents <5007>.

25 But forasmuch as he had <2192> not to pay <0591>, his lord <2962> commanded <2753> him to be sold <4097>, and his wife <1135>, and children <5043>, and all <3956> that he had <2192>, and payment <0591> to be made <0591>.

26 The servant <1401> therefore <3767> fell < 4098> down, and worshipped <4352> him, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, have patience <3114> with me, and I will pay < 0591> thee all <3956>.

27 Then <1161> the lord <2962> of that servant < 1401> was moved <4697> with compassion <4697>, and loosed <0630> him, and forgave <0863> him the debt <1156>.

28 But the same <1565> servant <1401> went < 1831> out, and found <2147> one <1520> of his fellowservants <4889>, which <3739> owed <3784> him an hundred <1540> pence <1220>: and he laid hands <2902> on him, and took <2902> [him] by the throat <4155>, saying < 3004>, Pay <0591> me that thou owest <3784>.

29 And his fellowservant <4889> fell <4098> down at <1519> his feet <4228>, and besought <3870> him, saying <3004>, Have patience <3114> with me, and I will pay < 0591> thee all.

30 And he would <2309> not: but went <0565> and cast <0906> him into <1519> prison <5438>, till < 2193> he should pay <0591> the debt <3784>.

31 So <1161> when his fellowservants <4889> saw < 1492> what <3588> was done <1096>, they were very < 4970> sorry <3076>, and came <2064> and told <1285> unto their lord <2962> all <3956> that was done <1096>.

32 Then <5119> his lord <2962>, after that he had called <4341> him, said <3004> unto him, O thou wicked < 4190> servant <1401>, I forgave <0863> thee all <3956> that debt <3782>, because <1893> thou desiredst <3870> me:

33 Shouldest not thou also <2532> have had compassion < 1653> on thy fellowservant <4889>, even <2532> as I had pity <1653> on thee?

34 And his lord <2962> was wroth <3710>, and delivered <3860> him to the tormentors <0930>, till < 2193> he should pay <0591> all <3956> that was due < 3784> unto him.

35 So <3779> likewise <2532> shall my heavenly < 2032> Father <3962> do <4160> also <2532> unto you, if <1437> ye from your <5216> hearts <2588> forgive < 0863> not every <1538> one his brother <0080> their trespasses <3900>.

Matthew 19

1. And it came <1096> to pass, [that] when <3753> Jesus <2424> had finished <5055> these <5128> sayings <3056>, he departed <3332> from Galilee <1056>, and came <2064> into <1519> the coasts <3725> of Judaea < 2449> beyond <4008> Jordan <2446>;

2 And great <4183> multitudes <3793> followed < 0190> him; and he healed <2323> them there <1563>.

3. The Pharisees <5330> also <2532> came <4334> unto him, tempting <3985> him, and saying <3004> unto him, Is it lawful <1832> for a man <0444> to put <0630> away < 0630> his wife <1135> for every <3956> cause <0156>?

4 And he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, Have ye not read <0314>, that he which <3588> made <4160> [them] at <0575> the beginning <0746> made <4160> them male <0730> and female <2338>,

5 And said <2036>, For this <5127> cause < 1752> shall a man <0444> leave <2641> father <3962> and mother <3384>, and shall cleave <4347> to his wife < 1135>: and they twain <1417> shall be one <3391> flesh < 4561>?

6 Wherefore <5620> they are no <3765> more < 3765> twain <1417>, but one <3391> flesh <4561>. What <3739> therefore <3767> God <2316> hath joined < 4801> together <4801>, let not man <0444> put <5563> asunder <5563>.

7 They say <3004> unto him, Why <5101> did Moses <3475> then <3767> command <1781> to give <1325> a writing <0975> of divorcement <0647>, and to put <0630> her away <0630>?

8 He saith <3004> unto them, Moses <3475> because <4314> of the hardness <4641> of your <5216> hearts < 4641> suffered <2010> you to put <0630> away <0630> your <5216> wives <1135>: but from the beginning <0746> it was not so <3779>.

9 And I say <3004> unto you, Whosoever <0302> shall put <0630> away <0630> his wife <1135>, except < 1508> [it be] for fornication <4202>, and shall marry <1060> another <0243>, committeth <3429> adultery <3429>: and whoso <3588> marrieth <1060> her which <3588> is put < 0630> away <0630> doth commit <3429> adultery <3429>.

10 His disciples <3101> say <3004> unto him, If < 1487> the case <0156> of the man <0444> be so <3779> with [his] wife <1135>, it is not good <4851> to marry < 1060>.

11 But he said <2036> unto them, All <3956> [men] cannot <3756> receive <5562> this <5126> saying < 3056>, save <0235> [they] to whom <3739> it is given < 1325>.

12 For there are some eunuchs <2135>, which <3748> were so <3779> born <1080> from [their] mother's <3384> womb <2836>: and there are some eunuchs <2134>, which < 3748> were made <2134> eunuchs <2134> of men <0444>: and there be eunuchs <2135>, which <3748> have made < 2134> themselves <1438> eunuchs <2134> for the kingdom < 0932> of heaven's <3772> sake. He that is able <1410> to receive <5562> [it], let him receive <5562> [it].

13. Then <5119> were there brought <4374> unto him little <3813> children <3813>, that he should put <2007> [his] hands <5495> on <2007> them, and pray <4336>: and the disciples <3101> rebuked <2008> them.

14 But Jesus <2424> said <2036>, Suffer <0863> little <3813> children <3813>, and forbid <2967> them not, to come <2064> unto me: for of such <5108> is the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

15 And he laid <2007> [his] hands <5495> on < 2007> them, and departed <4198> thence <1564>.

16. And, behold <2400>, one <1520> came <4334> and said <2036> unto him, Good <0018> Master <1320>, what <5101> good <0018> thing shall I do <4160>, that I may have <2192> eternal <0166> life <2222>?

17 And he said <2036> unto him, Why <5101> callest <3004> thou me good <0018>? [there is] none <3762> good <0018> but one <1520>, [that is], God <2316>: but if < 1487> thou wilt <2309> enter <1525> into <1519> life <2222>, keep <5083> the commandments <1785>.

18 He saith <3004> unto him, Which <4169>? Jesus <2424> said <2036>, Thou shalt do no <3756> murder < 5407>, Thou shalt not commit <3431> adultery <3431>, Thou shalt not steal <2813>, Thou shalt not bear <5576> false < 5576> witness <5576>,

19 Honour <5091> thy father <3962> and [thy] mother <3384>: and, Thou shalt love <0025> thy neighbour <4139> as thyself <4572>.

20 The young <3495> man <3495> saith <3004> unto him, All <3956> these <5023> things have I kept < 5442> from my youth <3503> up: what <5101> lack <5302> I yet <2089>?

21 Jesus <2424> said <5346> unto him, If < 1487> thou wilt <2309> be perfect <5046>, go <5217> [and] sell <4453> that thou hast <5224>, and give <1325> to the poor <4434>, and thou shalt have <2192> treasure < 2344> in heaven <3772>: and come <1204> [and] follow < 0190> me.

22 But when the young <3495> man <3495> heard < 0191> that saying <3056>, he went <0565> away <0565> sorrowful <3076>: for he had <2192> great <4183> possessions <2933>.

23. Then <1161> said <2036> Jesus <2424> unto his disciples <3101>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, That a rich <4145> man shall hardly <1423> enter < 1525> into <1519> the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772>.

24 And again <3825> I say <3004> unto you, It is easier <2123> for a camel <2574> to go <1330> through <1223> the eye <5169> of a needle <4476>, than < 2228> for a rich <4145> man to enter <1525> into < 1519> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

25 When his disciples <3101> heard <0191> [it], they were exceedingly <4970> amazed <1605>, saying <3004> , Who <5101> then <0686> can <1410> be saved <4982> ?

26 But Jesus <2424> beheld <1689> [them], and said <2036> unto them, With men <0444> this <5124> is impossible <0102>; but with God <2316> all <3956> things are possible <1415>.

27 Then <5119> answered <0611> Peter <4074> and said <2036> unto him, Behold <2400>, we have forsaken < 0863> all <3956>, and followed <0190> thee; what < 5101> shall we have <2701> therefore <0686>?

28 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, That ye which <3588> have followed <0190> me, in the regeneration <3824> when < 3752> the Son <5207> of man <0444> shall sit <2523> in the throne <2362> of his glory <1391>, ye also <2532> shall sit <2523> upon twelve <1427> thrones <2362>, judging <2919> the twelve <1427> tribes <5443> of Israel <2474>.

29 And every <3956> one that hath forsaken <0863> houses <3614>, or <2228> brethren <0080>, or <2228> sisters <0079>, or <2228> father <3962>, or <2228> mother <3384>, or <2228> wife <1135>, or <2228> children <5043>, or <2228> lands <0068>, for my name's <3686> sake <1752>, shall receive <2983> an hundredfold <1542>, and shall inherit <2816> everlasting <0166> life <2222>.

30 But many <4183> [that are] first <4413> shall be last <2078>; and the last <2078> [shall be] first <4413>.

Matthew 20

1. For the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is like <3664> unto a man <0444> [that is] an householder <3617>, which <3748> went <1821> out early <4404> in the morning to hire <3409> labourers <2040> into <1519> his vineyard <0290>.

2 And when he had agreed <4856> with the labourers < 2040> for a penny <1220> a day <2250>, he sent <0649> them into <1519> his vineyard <0290>.

3 And he went <1821> out about <4012> the third < 5154> hour <5610>, and saw <1492> others <0243> standing <2476> idle <0692> in the marketplace <0058>,

4 And said <2036> unto them; Go <5217> ye also < 2532> into <1519> the vineyard <0290>, and whatsoever < 1437> is right <1342> I will give you. And they went <0565> their way.

5 Again <3825> he went <1831> out about <4012> the sixth <1623> and ninth <1766> hour <5610>, and did <4160> likewise <5615>.

6 And about <4012> the eleventh <1734> hour < 5610> he went <1831> out, and found <2147> others < 0243> standing <2476> idle <0692>, and saith <3004> unto them, Why <5101> stand <2476> ye here all <3650> the day <2250> idle <0692>?

7 They say <3004> unto him, Because <3754> no < 3762> man <3762> hath hired <3409> us. He saith <3004> unto them, Go <5217> ye also <2532> into <1519> the vineyard <0290>; and whatsoever <1437> is right <1342>, [that] shall ye receive <2983>.

8 So <1161> when even <3798> was come <1096>, the lord <2962> of the vineyard <0290> saith <3004> unto his steward <2012>, Call <2564> the labourers <2040>, and give <0591> them [their] hire <3408>, beginning < 0756> from the last <2078> unto the first <4413>.

9 And when they came <2064> that [were hired] about < 4012> the eleventh <1734> hour <5610>, they received < 2983> every <0303> man a penny <1220>.

10 But when the first <4413> came <2064>, they supposed <3543> that they should have received <2983> more < 4119>; and they likewise <2532> received <2983> every < 0303> man a penny <1220>.

11 And when they had received <2983> [it], they murmured <1111> against <2596> the goodman <3617> of the house <3617>,

12 Saying <3004>, These <3778> last <2078> have wrought <4160> [but] one <3391> hour <5610>, and thou hast made <4160> them equal <2470> unto us, which < 3588> have borne <0941> the burden <0922> and heat < 2742> of the day <2250>.

13 But he answered <0611> one <1520> of them, and said <2036>, Friend <2083>, I do <0091> thee no < 3756> wrong <0091>: didst not thou agree <4856> with me for a penny <1220>?

14 Take <0142> [that] thine <4674> [is], and go < 5217> thy way: I will <2309> give <1325> unto this < 5129> last <2078>, even <2532> as unto thee.

15 Is it not lawful <1832> for me to do <4160> what <3739> I will <2309> with mine <1699> own? Is thine < 4675> eye <3788> evil <4190>, because <3754> I am < 1510> good <0018>?

16 So <3779> the last <2078> shall be first < 4413>, and the first <4413> last <2078>: for many < 4183> be called <2822>, but few <3641> chosen <1588>.

17. And Jesus <2424> going <0305> up to Jerusalem <2414> took <3880> the twelve <1427> disciples < 3101> apart <2398> in the way <3598>, and said <2036> unto them,

18 Behold <2400>, we go <0305> up to Jerusalem < 2414>; and the Son <5207> of man <0444> shall be betrayed <3860> unto the chief <0749> priests <0749> and unto the scribes <1122>, and they shall condemn <2632> him to death < 2288>,

19 And shall deliver <3860> him to the Gentiles < 1484> to mock <1702>, and to scourge <3164>, and to crucify <4717> [him]: and the third <5154> day <2250> he shall rise <0450> again <0450>.

20. Then <5119> came <4334> to him the mother < 3384> of Zebedee's <2199> children <5207> with her sons < 5207>, worshipping <4352> [him], and desiring <0154> a certain <5100> thing of him.

21 And he said <2036> unto her, What <5101> wilt <2309> thou? She saith <3004> unto him, Grant <2036> that these <3778> my two <1417> sons <5207> may sit < 2523>, the one <1520> on <1537> thy right <1188> hand, and the other <1520> on <1537> the left <2176>, in thy kingdom <0932>.

22 But Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036>, Ye know <1492> not what <5101> ye ask <0154>. Are ye able <1410> to drink <4095> of the cup <4221> that I shall drink <4095> of, and to be baptized <0907> with the baptism <0908> that I am baptized <0907> with? They say <3004> unto him, We are able <1410>.

23 And he saith <3004> unto them, Ye shall drink < 4095> indeed <3303> of my cup <4221>, and be baptized < 0907> with the baptism <0908> that I am baptized <0907> with: but to sit <2523> on <1537> my right <1188> hand, and on <1537> my left <2176>, is not mine <1699> to give <1325>, but [it shall be given to them] for whom <3739> it is prepared <2090> of my Father <3962>.

24 And when the ten <1176> heard <0191> [it], they were moved <0023> with indignation <0023> against <4012> the two <1417> brethren <0080>.

25 But Jesus <2424> called <4341> them [unto him], and said <2036>, Ye know <1492> that the princes <0758> of the Gentiles <1484> exercise <2634> dominion <2634> over them, and they that are great <3171> exercise <2715> authority <2715> upon them.

26 But it shall not be so <3779> among <1722> you: but whosoever <1437> will <2309> be great <3173> among <1722> you, let him be your <5216> minister <1249>;

27 And whosoever <1437> will <2309> be chief < 4413> among <1722> you, let him be your <5216> servant < 1401>:

28 Even <5618> as the Son <5207> of man <0444> came <2064> not to be ministered <1247> unto, but to minister <1247>, and to give <1325> his life <5590> a ransom < 3083> for many <4183>.

29. And as they departed <1607> from Jericho <2410>, a great <4183> multitude <3793> followed <0190> him.

30 And, behold <2400>, two <1417> blind <5185> men sitting <2521> by the way <3598> side <3844>, when they heard <0191> that Jesus <2424> passed <3855> by, cried <2896> out, saying <3004>, Have mercy <1653> on us, O Lord <2962>, [thou] Son <5207> of David <1138>.

31 And the multitude <3793> rebuked <2008> them, because <2443> they should hold <4623> their peace <4623> : but they cried <2896> the more <3185>, saying <3004>, Have mercy <1653> on us, O Lord <2962>, [thou] Son <5207> of David <1138>.

32 And Jesus <2424> stood <2476> still <2476>, and called <5455> them, and said <2036>, What <5101> will <2309> ye that I shall do <4160> unto you?

33 They say <3004> unto him, Lord <2962>, that our eyes <3788> may be opened <0455>.

34 So <1161> Jesus <2424> had compassion < 4697> [on them], and touched <0680> their eyes: and immediately <2112> their eyes <3788> received <0308> sight < 0308>, and they followed <0190> him.

Matthew 21

1. And when <3753> they drew nigh <1448> unto Jerusalem <2414>, and were come <2064> to Bethphage < 0967>, unto the mount <3735> of Olives <1636>, then < 5119> sent <0649> Jesus <2424> two <1417> disciples <3101>,

2 Saying <3004> unto them, Go <4198> into < 1519> the village <2968> over <0561> against <0561> you, and straightway <2112> ye shall find <2147> an ass < 3688> tied <1210>, and a colt <4454> with her: loose < 3089> [them], and bring <0071> [them] unto me.

3 And if <1437> any <5100> [man] say <2036> ought <5100> unto you, ye shall say <2046>, The Lord < 2962> hath <2192> need <5532> of them; and straightway < 2112> he will send <0649> them.

4 All <3650> this <5124> was done <1096>, that it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken < 4483> by the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>,

5 Tell <2036> ye the daughter <2364> of Sion < 4622>, Behold <2400>, thy King <0935> cometh <2064> unto thee, meek <4239>, and sitting <1910> upon an ass < 3688>, and a colt <4454> the foal <5207> of an ass < 5268>.

6 And the disciples <3101> went <4198>, and did < 4160> as Jesus <2424> commanded <4367> them,

7 And brought <0071> the ass <3688>, and the colt <4454>, and put <2007> on <1883> them their clothes < 2440>, and they set <1940> [him] thereon <0846>.

8 And a very <4118> great <4118> multitude < 3793> spread <4766> their garments <2440> in the way < 3598>; others <0243> cut <2875> down <2875> branches <2798> from the trees <1186>, and strawed <4766> [them] in the way <3598>.

9 And the multitudes <3793> that went <4254> before <4254>, and that followed <0190>, cried <2896>, saying <3004>, Hosanna <5614> to the Son <5207> of David < 1138>: Blessed <2127> [is] he that cometh <2064> in the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>; Hosanna <5614> in the highest <5310>.

10 And when he was come <1525> into <1519> Jerusalem <2414>, all <3956> the city <4172> was moved <4579>, saying <3004>, Who <5101> is this <3778>?

11 And the multitude <3793> said <3004>, This < 3778> is Jesus <2424> the prophet <4396> of Nazareth < 3478> of Galilee <1056>.

12. And Jesus <2424> went <1525> into <1519> the temple <2411> of God <2316>, and cast <1544> out all <3956> them that sold <4453> and bought <0059> in the temple <2411>, and overthrew <2690> the tables <5132> of the moneychangers <2855>, and the seats <2515> of them that sold <4453> doves <4058>,

13 And said <3004> unto them, It is written <1125>, My house <3624> shall be called <2564> the house <3624> of prayer <4335>; but ye have made <4160> it a den <4693> of thieves <3027>.

14 And the blind <5185> and the lame <5560> came <4334> to him in the temple <2411>; and he healed <2323> them.

15 And when the chief <0749> priests <0749> and scribes <1122> saw <1492> the wonderful <2297> things that he did <4160>, and the children <3816> crying <2896> in the temple <2411>, and saying <3004>, Hosanna <5614> to the Son <5207> of David <1138>; they were sore <0023> displeased <0023>,

16 And said <2036> unto him, Hearest <0191> thou what <5101> these <3778> say <3004>? And Jesus < 2424> saith <3004> unto them, Yea <3483>; have ye never < 3763> read <0314>, Out of the mouth <4750> of babes < 3516> and sucklings <2337> thou hast perfected <2675> praise <0136>?

17 And he left <2641> them, and went <1831> out of the city <4172> into <1519> Bethany <0963>; and he lodged <0835> there <1563>.

18. Now <1161> in the morning <4405> as he returned <1877> into <1519> the city <4172>, he hungered < 3983>.

19 And when he saw <1492> a fig <4808> tree < 4808> in the way <3598>, he came <2064> to it, and found <2147> nothing <3762> thereon <0846>, but leaves < 5444> only <3440>, and said <3004> unto it, Let no < 3370> fruit <2590> grow <1096> on <1537> thee henceforward <3371> for ever <0165>. And presently <3916> the fig <4808> tree <4808> withered <3583> away.

20 And when the disciples <3101> saw <1492> [it], they marvelled <2296>, saying <3004>, How <4459> soon <3916> is the fig <4808> tree <4808> withered < 3583> away!

21 Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto them, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, If <1437> ye have <2192> faith <4102>, and doubt < 1252> not, ye shall not only <3440> do <4160> this < 3588> [which is done] to the fig <4808> tree <4808>, but also <2579> if <2579> ye shall say <2036> unto this < 5129> mountain <3735>, Be thou removed <0142>, and be thou cast <0906> into <1519> the sea <2281>; it shall be done <1096>.

22 And all <3956> things, whatsoever <0302> ye shall ask <0154> in prayer <4335>, believing <4100>, ye shall receive <2983>.

23. And when he was come <2064> into <1519> the temple <2411>, the chief <0749> priests <0749> and the elders <4245> of the people <2992> came <4334> unto him as he was teaching <1321>, and said <3004>, By what < 4169> authority <1849> doest <4160> thou these <5023> things? and who <5101> gave <1325> thee this <5026> authority <1849>?

24 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto them, I also <2504> will ask <2065> you one < 1520> thing <3056>, which <3739> if <1437> ye tell <2036> me, I in like <2504> wise will tell <2046> you by what <4169> authority <1849> I do <4160> these < 5023> things.

25 The baptism <0908> of John <2491>, whence < 4159> was it? from heaven <3772>, or <2228> of men < 0444>? And they reasoned <1260> with themselves <1438>, saying <3004>, If <1437> we shall say <2036>, From heaven <3772>; he will say <2046> unto us, Why <1302> did ye not then <3767> believe <4100> him?

26 But if <1437> we shall say <2036>, Of men < 0444>; we fear <5399> the people <3793>; for all < 3956> hold <2192> John <2491> as a prophet <4396>.

27 And they answered <0611> Jesus <2424>, and said <2036>, We cannot <1492> tell <1492>. And he said < 5346> unto them, Neither <3761> tell <3004> I you by what <4169> authority <1849> I do <4160> these <5023> things.

28. But what <5101> think <1380> ye? A [certain] man <0444> had <2192> two <1417> sons <5043>; and he came <4334> to the first <4413>, and said <2036>, Son <5043>, go <5217> work <2038> to day <4594> in my vineyard <0290>.

29 He answered <0611> and said <2036>, I will < 2309> not: but afterward <5305> he repented <3338>, and went <0565>.

30 And he came <4334> to the second <1208>, and said <2036> likewise <5615>. And he answered <0611> and said <2036>, I [go <0565>], sir <2962>: and went < 0565> not.

31 Whether <5101> of them twain <1417> did < 4160> the will <2307> of [his] father <3962>? They say < 3004> unto him, The first <4413>. Jesus <2424> saith < 3004> unto them, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, That the publicans <5052> and the harlots <4204> go <4254> into <1519> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> before < 4254> you.

32 For John <2491> came <2064> unto you in the way <3598> of righteousness <1343>, and ye believed <4100> him not: but the publicans <5052> and the harlots <4204> believed <4100> him: and ye, when ye had seen <1492> [it], repented <3338> not afterward <5305>, that ye might believe <4100> him.

33. Hear <0191> another <0243> parable <3850>: There was a certain <5100> householder <3617>, which < 3748> planted <5452> a vineyard <0290>, and hedged < 4060> it round about <4060>, and digged <3736> a winepress <3025> in it, and built <3618> a tower <4444>, and let <1554> it out to husbandmen <1092>, and went <0589> into a far country <0589>:

34 And when <3753> the time <2540> of the fruit < 2590> drew near <1448>, he sent <0649> his servants < 1401> to the husbandmen <1092>, that they might receive < 2983> the fruits <2590> of it.

35 And the husbandmen <1092> took <2983> his servants <1401>, and beat <1194> one <3739>, and killed <0615> another <3739>, and stoned <3036> another < 3739>.

36 Again <3825>, he sent <0649> other <0243> servants <1401> more <4119> than the first <4413>: and they did <4160> unto them likewise <5615>.

37 But last <5305> of all he sent <0649> unto them his son <5207>, saying <3004>, They will reverence <1788> my son <5207>.

38 But when the husbandmen <1092> saw <1492> the son <5207>, they said <2036> among <1722> themselves < 1438>, This <3778> is the heir <2818>; come <1205>, let us kill <0615> him, and let us seize <2722> on his inheritance <2817>.

39 And they caught <2983> him, and cast <1544> [him] out of the vineyard <0290>, and slew <0615> [him].

40 When <3752> the lord <2962> therefore < 3767> of the vineyard <0290> cometh <2064>, what < 5101> will he do <4160> unto those <1565> husbandmen < 1092>?

41 They say <3004> unto him, He will miserably < 2560> destroy <0622> those <0846> wicked <2556> men, and will let <1554> out [his] vineyard <0290> unto other < 0243> husbandmen <1092>, which <3748> shall render < 0591> him the fruits <2590> in their seasons <2540>.

42 Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto them, Did ye never <3763> read <0314> in the scriptures <1124>, The stone <3037> which <3739> the builders <3618> rejected <0593>, the same <3778> is become <1519> the head < 2776> of the corner <1137>: this <3778> is the Lord's < 2962> doing <1096>, and it is marvellous <2298> in our eyes <3788>?

43 Therefore <5124> say <3004> I unto you, The kingdom <0932> of God <2316> shall be taken <0142> from you, and given <1325> to a nation <1484> bringing <4160> forth <4160> the fruits <2590> thereof <0846>.

44 And whosoever <3588> shall fall <4098> on < 1909> this <5126> stone <3037> shall be broken <4917>: but on <1909> whomsoever <0302> it shall fall <4098>, it will grind <3039> him to powder <3039>.

45 And when the chief <0749> priests <0749> and Pharisees <5330> had heard <0191> his parables <3850>, they perceived <1097> that he spake <3004> of them.

46 But when they sought <2212> to lay hands <2902> on him, they feared <5399> the multitude <3793>, because < 1894> they took <2192> him for a prophet <4396>.

Matthew 22

1. And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and spake < 2036> unto them again <3825> by parables <3850>, and said <3004>,

2 The kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> is like < 3666> unto a certain <0444> king <0935>, which <3748> made <4160> a marriage <1062> for his son <5207>,

3 And sent <0649> forth <0649> his servants < 1401> to call <2564> them that were bidden <2564> to the wedding <1062>: and they would <2309> not come <2064>.

4 Again <3825>, he sent <0649> forth <0649> other <0243> servants <1401>, saying <3004>, Tell < 2036> them which are bidden <2564>, Behold <2400>, I have prepared <2090> my dinner <0712>: my oxen <5022> and [my] fatlings <4619> [are] killed <2380>, and all <3956> things [are] ready <2092>: come <1205> unto the marriage < 1062>.

5 But they made <0272> light <0272> of [it], and went <0565> their ways, one <3303> to his farm <0068>, another to his merchandise <1711>:

6 And the remnant <3062> took <2902> his servants <1401>, and entreated <5195> [them] spitefully <5195>, and slew <0615> [them].

7 But when the king <0935> heard <0191> [thereof], he was wroth <3710>: and he sent <3992> forth his armies < 4753>, and destroyed <0622> those <1565> murderers < 5406>, and burned <1714> up their city <4172>.

8 Then <5119> saith <3004> he to his servants < 1401>, The wedding <1062> is ready <2092>, but they which were bidden <2564> were not worthy <0514>.

9 Go <4198> ye therefore <3767> into <1909> the highways <3598>, and as many <3745> as ye shall find < 2147>, bid <2564> to the marriage <1062>.

10 So <2532> those <1565> servants <1401> went <1831> out into <1519> the highways <3598>, and gathered <4863> together <4863> all <3956> as many < 3745> as they found <2147>, both <5037> bad <4190> and good <0018>: and the wedding <1062> was furnished < 4130> with guests <0345>.

11 And when the king <0935> came <1525> in to see <2300> the guests <0345>, he saw <1492> there < 1563> a man <0444> which had <1746> not on <1746> a wedding <1062> garment <1742>:

12 And he saith <3004> unto him, Friend <2083>, how <4459> camest <1525> thou in hither <5602> not having <2192> a wedding <1062> garment <1742>? And he was speechless <5392>.

13 Then <5119> said <2036> the king <0935> to the servants <1249>, Bind <1210> him hand <5495> and foot <4228>, and take <0142> him away <0142>, and cast <1544> [him] into <1519> outer <1857> darkness < 4655>; there <1563> shall be weeping <2805> and gnashing <1030> of teeth <3599>.

14 For many <4183> are called <2822>, but few < 3641> [are] chosen <1588>.

15. Then <5119> went <4198> the Pharisees < 5330>, and took <2983> counsel <4824> how <3704> they might entangle <3802> him in [his] talk <3056>.

16 And they sent <0649> out unto him their disciples < 3101> with the Herodians <2265>, saying <3004>, Master < 1320>, we know <1492> that thou art <1488> true <0227> , and teachest <1321> the way <3598> of God <2316> in truth <0225>, neither <3756> carest <3199> thou for any <3762> [man <3762>]: for thou regardest <0991> not the person <4383> of men <0444>.

17 Tell <2036> us therefore <3767>, What < 5101> thinkest <1380> thou? Is it lawful <1832> to give < 1325> tribute <2778> unto Caesar <2541>, or <2228> not?

18 But Jesus <2424> perceived <1097> their wickedness <4189>, and said <2036>, Why <5101> tempt < 3985> ye me, [ye] hypocrites <5273>?

19 Shew <1925> me the tribute <2778> money < 3546>. And they brought <4374> unto him a penny <1220>.

20 And he saith <3004> unto them, Whose <5101> [is] this <3778> image <1504> and superscription <1923>?

21 They say <3004> unto him, Caesar's <2541>. Then <5119> saith <3004> he unto them, Render <0591> therefore <3767> unto Caesar <2541> the things which are Caesar's <2541>; and unto God <2316> the things that are God's <2316>.

22 When they had heard <0191> [these words], they marvelled <2296>, and left <0863> him, and went <0565> their way.

23. The same <1565> day <2250> came <4334> to him the Sadducees <4523>, which <3588> say <3004> that there is no <3361> resurrection <0386>, and asked <1905> him,

24 Saying <3004>, Master <1320>, Moses <3475> said <2036>, If <1437> a man <5100> die <0599>, having <2192> no <3361> children <5043>, his brother < 0080> shall marry <1918> his wife <1135>, and raise < 0450> up seed <4690> unto his brother <0080>.

25 Now <1161> there were with us seven <2033> brethren <0080>: and the first <4413>, when he had married < 1060> a wife, deceased <5053>, and, having <2192> no < 3361> issue <4690>, left <0863> his wife <1135> unto his brother <0080>:

26 Likewise <3668> the second <1208> also < 2532>, and the third <5154>, unto the seventh <2033>.

27 And last <5305> of all <3956> the woman < 1135> died <0599> also <2532>.

28 Therefore <3767> in the resurrection <0386> whose <5101> wife <1135> shall she be of the seven <2033> ? for they all <3956> had <2192> her.

29 Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto them, Ye do err <4105>, not knowing <1492> the scriptures <1124>, nor <3366> the power <1411> of God <2316>.

30 For in the resurrection <0386> they neither < 3777> marry <1060>, nor <3777> are given <1547> in marriage <1547>, but are as the angels <0032> of God < 2316> in heaven <3772>.

31 But as touching <4012> the resurrection <0386> of the dead <3498>, have ye not read <0314> that which < 3588> was spoken <4483> unto you by God <2316>, saying < 3004>,

32 I am <1510> the God <2316> of Abraham <11>, and the God <2316> of Isaac <2464>, and the God <2316> of Jacob <2384>? God <2316> is not the God <2316> of the dead <3498>, but of the living <2198>.

33 And when the multitude <3793> heard <0191> [this], they were astonished <1605> at <1909> his doctrine < 1322>.

34. But when the Pharisees <5330> had heard <0191> that he had put the Sadducees <4523> to silence <5392>, they were gathered <4863> together <0864>.

35 Then <2532> one <1520> of them, [which was] a lawyer <3544>, asked <1905> [him a question], tempting < 3985> him, and saying <3004>,

36 Master <1320>, which <4169> [is] the great < 3173> commandment <1785> in the law <3551>?

37 Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Thou shalt love <0025> the Lord <2962> thy God <2316> with all < 3650> thy heart <2588>, and with all <3650> thy soul < 5590>, and with all <3650> thy mind <1271>.

38 This <3778> is the first <4413> and great < 3173> commandment <1785>.

39 And the second <1208> [is] like <3664> unto it, Thou shalt love <0025> thy neighbour <4139> as thyself < 4572>.

40 On <1722> these <5025> two <1417> commandments <1785> hang <2910> all <3650> the law < 3551> and the prophets <4396>.

41. While the Pharisees <5330> were gathered <4863> together <4863>, Jesus <2424> asked <1905> them,

42 Saying <3004>, What <5101> think <1380> ye of Christ <5547>? whose <5101> son <5207> is he? They say <3004> unto him, [The Son] of David <1138>.

43 He saith <3004> unto them, How <4459> then < 3767> doth David <1138> in spirit <4151> call <2564> him Lord <2962>, saying <3004>,

44 The LORD <2962> said <2036> unto my Lord < 2962>, Sit <2521> thou on <1537> my right <1188> hand, till <2193> I make <5087> thine <4675> enemies < 2190> thy footstool <5286>?

45 If <1487> David <1138> then <3767> call <2564> him Lord <2962>, how <4459> is he his son < 5207>?

46 And no <3762> man <3762> was able <1410> to answer <0611> him a word <3056>, neither <3761> durst <5111> any <5100> [man] from that day <2250> forth ask <1905> him any <3765> more <3765> [questions].

Matthew 23

1. Then <5119> spake <2980> Jesus <2424> to the multitude <3793>, and to his disciples <3101>,

2 Saying <3004>, The scribes <1122> and the Pharisees <5330> sit <2523> in Moses <3475>' seat < 2515>:

3 All <3956> therefore <3767> whatsoever < 0302> they bid <2036> you observe <5083>, [that] observe <5083> and do <4160>; but do <4160> not ye after < 2596> their works <2041>: for they say <3004>, and do < 4160> not.

4 For they bind <1195> heavy <0926> burdens < 5413> and grievous <1418> to be borne <1418>, and lay < 2007> [them] on <1909> men's <0444> shoulders <5606>; but they [themselves] will <2309> not move <2795> them with one of their fingers <1147>.

5 But all <3956> their works <2041> they do < 4160> for to be seen <2300> of men <0444>: they make < 4115> broad <4115> their phylacteries <5440>, and enlarge <3170> the borders <2899> of their garments <2440>,

6 And love <5368> the uppermost <4411> rooms < 4411> at <1722> feasts <1173>, and the chief <4410> seats <4410> in the synagogues <4864>,

7 And greetings <0783> in the markets <0058>, and to be called <2564> of men <0444>, Rabbi <4461>, Rabbi <4461>.

8 But be not ye called <2564> Rabbi <4461>: for one <1520> is your <5216> Master <2519>, [even] Christ < 5547>; and all <3956> ye are brethren <0080>.

9 And call <2564> no <3361> [man] your <5216> father <3962> upon the earth <1093>: for one <1520> is your <5216> Father <3962>, which <3588> is in heaven < 3772>.

10 Neither <3366> be ye called <2564> masters < 2519>: for one <1520> is your <5216> Master <2519>, [even] Christ <5547>.

11 But he that is greatest <3187> among you shall be your <5216> servant <1249>.

12 And whosoever <3748> shall exalt <5312> himself <1438> shall be abased <5013>; and he that shall humble < 5013> himself <1438> shall be exalted <5312>.

13. But woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! for ye shut <2808> up the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> against <1715> men <0444>: for ye neither <3761> go <1525> in [yourselves], neither <3756> suffer <0863> ye them that are entering <1525> to go <1525> in.

14 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! for ye devour <2719> widows <5503>' houses <3614>, and for a pretence <4392> make <4336> long <3117> prayer <4336>: therefore < 5124> ye shall receive <2983> the greater <4055> damnation <2917>.

15 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! for ye compass < 4013> sea <2281> and land <3584> to make <4160> one <1520> proselyte <4339>, and when <3752> he is made < 1096>, ye make <4160> him twofold <1366> more the child < 5207> of hell <1067> than yourselves <5216>.

16 Woe <3759> unto you, [ye] blind <5185> guides <3595>, which <3588> say <3004>, Whosoever <0302> shall swear <3660> by the temple <3485>, it is nothing < 3762>; but whosoever <0302> shall swear <3660> by the gold <5557> of the temple <3485>, he is a debtor <3784>!

17 [Ye] fools <3474> and blind <5185>: for whether <5101> is greater <3187>, the gold <5557>, or < 2228> the temple <3485> that sanctifieth <0037> the gold <5557>?

18 And, Whosoever <1437> shall swear <3660> by the altar <2379>, it is nothing <3762>; but whosoever <0302> sweareth <3660> by the gift <1435> that is upon it, he is guilty <3784>.

19 [Ye] fools <3474> and blind <5185>: for whether <5101> [is] greater <3187>, the gift <1435>, or < 2228> the altar <2379> that sanctifieth <0037> the gift < 1435>?

20 Whoso <3588> therefore <3767> shall swear < 3660> by the altar <2379>, sweareth <3660> by it, and by all <3956> things thereon <0846>.

21 And whoso <3588> shall swear <3660> by the temple <3485>, sweareth <3660> by it, and by him that dwelleth <2730> therein.

22 And he that shall swear <3660> by heaven <3772>, sweareth <3660> by the throne <2362> of God <2316>, and by him that sitteth <2521> thereon <0846>.

23 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! for ye pay <0586> tithe <0586> of mint <2238> and anise <0432> and cummin <2951>, and have omitted <0863> the weightier <0926> [matters] of the law <3551>, judgment <2920>, mercy < 1656>, and faith <4102>: these <5023> ought <1163> ye to have done <4160>, and not to leave <0863> the other < 2548> undone.

24 [Ye] blind <5185> guides <3595>, which < 3588> strain <1368> at <1368> a gnat <2971>, and swallow <2666> a camel <2574>.

25 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! for ye make <2511> clean <2511> the outside <1855> of the cup <4221> and of the platter <3953>, but within <2081> they are full < 1073> of extortion <0724> and excess <0192>.

26 [Thou] blind <5185> Pharisee <5330>, cleanse < 2511> first <4412> that [which is] within <1787> the cup <4221> and platter <3953>, that the outside <1623> of them may be clean <2513> also <2532>.

27 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! for ye are like < 3945> unto whited <2867> sepulchres <5028>, which < 3748> indeed <3303> appear <5316> beautiful <5611> outward <1855>, but are within <2081> full <1073> of dead <3498> [men's] bones <3747>, and of all <3956> uncleanness <0167>.

28 Even so <3779> ye also <2532> outwardly < 1855> appear <5316> righteous <1342> unto men <0444>, but within <2081> ye are full <3324> of hypocrisy <5272> and iniquity <0458>.

29 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>, hypocrites <5273>! because <3754> ye build <3618> the tombs <5028> of the prophets <4396>, and garnish <2885> the sepulchres <3419> of the righteous < 1342>,

30 And say <3004>, If <1487> we had been < 2258> in the days <2250> of our fathers <3962>, we would not have been <2258> partakers <2844> with them in the blood <0129> of the prophets <4396>.

31 Wherefore <5620> ye be witnesses <3140> unto yourselves <1438>, that ye are the children <5207> of them which killed <5407> the prophets <4396>.

32 Fill <4137> ye up then <2532> the measure < 3358> of your <5216> fathers <3962>.

33 [Ye] serpents <3789>, [ye] generation <1081> of vipers <2191>, how <4459> can ye escape <0575> the damnation <2920> of hell <1067>?

34. Wherefore <5124>, behold <2400>, I send < 0649> unto you prophets <4396>, and wise <4680> men, and scribes <1122>: and [some] of them ye shall kill <0615> and crucify <4717>; and [some] of them shall ye scourge <3164> in your <5216> synagogues <4864>, and persecute <1377> [them] from city <4172> to city <4172>:

35 That upon you may come <2064> all <3956> the righteous <1342> blood <0129> shed <1632> upon the earth <1093>, from the blood <0129> of righteous <1342> Abel <0006> unto the blood <0129> of Zacharias <2197> son < 5207> of Barachias <0914>, whom <3739> ye slew <5407> between <3342> the temple <3485> and the altar <2379>.

36 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, All < 3956> these <5023> things shall come <2240> upon this < 5026> generation <1074>.

37 O Jerusalem <2419>, Jerusalem <2419>, [thou] that killest <0615> the prophets <4396>, and stonest < 3036> them which are sent <0649> unto thee, how often <4212> would <2309> I have gathered <1996> thy children <5043> together <1996>, even <5158> as a hen <3733> gathereth <1996> her chickens <3556> under <5259> [her] wings < 4420>, and ye would <2309> not!

38 Behold <2400>, your <5216> house <3624> is left <0863> unto you desolate <2048>.

39 For I say <3004> unto you, Ye shall not see < 1492> me henceforth <0737>, till <2193> ye shall say < 2036>, Blessed <2127> [is] he that cometh <2064> in the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>.

Matthew 24

1. And Jesus <2424> went <1831> out, and departed <4198> from the temple <2411>: and his disciples <3101> came <4334> to [him] for to shew <1925> him the buildings < 3619> of the temple <2411>.

2 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, See < 0991> ye not all <3956> these <5023> things? verily < 0281> I say <3004> unto you, There shall not be left <0863> here <5602> one stone <3037> upon another, that shall not be thrown <2647> down <2647>.

3 And as he sat <2521> upon the mount <3735> of Olives <1636>, the disciples <3101> came <4334> unto him privately <2398>, saying <3004>, Tell <2036> us, when <4218> shall these <5023> things be? and what <5101> [shall be] the sign <4592> of thy coming <3952>, and of the end <4930> of the world <0165>?

4. And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto them, Take heed <0991> that no <3361> man < 5100> deceive <4105> you.

5 For many <4183> shall come <2064> in my name < 3686>, saying <3004>, I am <1510> Christ <5547>; and shall deceive <4105> many <4183>.

6 And ye shall hear <0191> of wars <4171> and rumours <0189> of wars <4171>: see <3708> that ye be not troubled <2360>: for all <3956> [these things] must < 1163> come <1096> to pass, but the end <5056> is not yet <3768>.

7 For nation <1484> shall rise <1453> against < 1909> nation <1484>, and kingdom <0932> against <1909> kingdom <0932>: and there shall be famines <3042>, and pestilences <3061>, and earthquakes <4578>, in divers places <5117>.

8 All <3956> these <5023> [are] the beginning < 0746> of sorrows <5604>.

9 Then <5119> shall they deliver <3860> you up to be afflicted <2347>, and shall kill <0615> you: and ye shall be hated of all <3956> nations <1484> for my name's < 3686> sake.

10 And then <5119> shall many <4183> be offended <4624>, and shall betray <3860> one <0240> another < 0240>, and shall hate <3404> one <0240> another <0240> .

11 And many <4183> false <5578> prophets < 5578> shall rise <1453>, and shall deceive <4105> many < 4183>.

12 And because <1223> iniquity <0458> shall abound <4129>, the love <0026> of many <4183> shall wax < 5594> cold <5594>.

13 But he that shall endure <5278> unto the end < 5056>, the same <3778> shall be saved <4982>.

14 And this <5124> gospel <2098> of the kingdom < 0932> shall be preached <2784> in all <3650> the world < 3625> for a witness <3142> unto all <3956> nations < 1484>; and then <5119> shall the end <5056> come < 2240>.

15 When <3752> ye therefore <3767> shall see < 1492> the abomination <0946> of desolation <2050>, spoken <4483> of by Daniel <1158> the prophet <4396>, stand < 2476> in the holy <0040> place <5117>, (whoso readeth < 0314>, let him understand <3539>:)

16 Then <5119> let them which be in Judaea <2449> flee <5343> into <1909> the mountains <3735>:

17 Let him which is on <1909> the housetop <1430> not come <2597> down <2597> to take <0142> any < 5100> thing out of his house <3614>:

18 Neither <3361> let him which is in the field < 0068> return <1994> back <3694> to take <0142> his clothes <2440>.

19 And woe <3759> unto them that are with child < 1064>, and to them that give suck <2337> in those <1565> days <2250>!

20 But pray <4336> ye that your <5216> flight < 5437> be not in the winter <5494>, neither <3366> on < 1722> the sabbath <4521> day:

21 For then <5119> shall be great <3173> tribulation <2347>, such <3634> as was not since <0575> the beginning <0746> of the world <2889> to this <3568> time <2540>, no, nor <3761> ever <3364> shall be.

22 And except <1508> those <1565> days <2250> should be shortened <2856>, there should no <3956> flesh < 4561> be saved <4982>: but for the elect's <1588> sake those <1565> days <2250> shall be shortened <2856>.

23 Then <5119> if <1437> any <5100> man shall say <2036> unto you, Lo <2400>, here <5602> [is] Christ <5547>, or <2228> there <5602>; believe <4100> [it] not.

24 For there shall arise <1453> false Christs <5580> , and false <5578> prophets <5578>, and shall shew <1325> great <3173> signs <4592> and wonders <5059>; insomuch <5620> that, if <1487> [it were] possible <1415>, they shall deceive <4105> the very <2532> elect <1588>.

25 Behold <2400>, I have told <4280> you before < 4280>.

26 Wherefore <3767> if <1437> they shall say < 2036> unto you, Behold <2400>, he is in the desert <2048>; go <1831> not forth <1831>: behold <2400>, [he is] in the secret <5009> chambers <5009>; believe <4100> [it] not.

27 For as the lightning <0796> cometh <1831> out of the east <0395>, and shineth <5316> even unto the west < 1424>; so <3779> shall also <2532> the coming <3952> of the Son <5207> of man <0444> be.

28 For wheresoever <1437> the carcase <4430> is, there <1563> will the eagles <0105> be gathered <4863> together <4863>.

29 Immediately <2112> after <3326> the tribulation <2347> of those <1565> days <2250> shall the sun < 2246> be darkened <4654>, and the moon <4582> shall not give <1325> her light <5338>, and the stars <0792> shall fall <4098> from heaven <3772>, and the powers <1411> of the heavens <3772> shall be shaken <4531>:

30 And then <5119> shall appear <5316> the sign < 4592> of the Son <5207> of man <0444> in heaven <3772> : and then <5119> shall all <3956> the tribes <5443> of the earth <1093> mourn <2875>, and they shall see <3700> the Son <5207> of man <0444> coming <2064> in the clouds <3507> of heaven <3772> with power <1411> and great < 4183> glory <1391>.

31 And he shall send <0649> his angels <0032> with a great <3173> sound <5456> of a trumpet <4536>, and they shall gather <1996> together <1996> his elect <1588> from the four <5064> winds <0417>, from one end <0206> of heaven <3772> to the other <1565>.

32. Now <1161> learn <3129> a parable <3850> of the fig <4808> tree <4808>; When <3752> his branch <2798> is yet <2236> tender <0527>, and putteth < 1631> forth <1631> leaves <5444>, ye know <1097> that summer <2330> [is] nigh <1451>:

33 So <3779> likewise <2532> ye, when <3752> ye shall see <1492> all <3956> these <5023> things, know <1097> that it is near <1451>, [even] at <1909> the doors <2374>.

34 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, This < 3778> generation <1074> shall not pass <3928>, till < 2193> all <3956> these <5023> things be fulfilled < 1096>.

35 Heaven <3772> and earth <1093> shall pass < 3928> away <3928>, but my words <3056> shall not pass < 3928> away <3928>.

36 But of that day <2250> and hour <5610> knoweth <1492> no <3762> [man <3762>], no <3761>, not the angels <0032> of heaven <3772>, but my Father <3962> only <3441>.

37 But as the days <2250> of Noe <3575> [were], so <3779> shall also <2532> the coming <3952> of the Son <5207> of man <0444> be.

38 For as in the days <2250> that were before <4253> the flood <2627> they were eating <5176> and drinking < 4095>, marrying <1060> and giving in marriage <1547>, until <0891> the day <2250> that Noe <3575> entered < 1525> into <1519> the ark <2787>,

39 And knew <1097> not until <2193> the flood < 2627> came <2064>, and took <0142> them all <0537> away <0142>; so <3779> shall also <2532> the coming < 3952> of the Son <5207> of man <0444> be.

40 Then <5119> shall two <1417> be in the field < 0068>; the one <1520> shall be taken <3880>, and the other <1520> left <0863>.

41 Two <1417> [women shall be] grinding <0229> at <1722> the mill <3459>; the one <1520> shall be taken <3880>, and the other <1520> left <0863>.

42 Watch <1127> therefore <3767>: for ye know < 1492> not what <4169> hour <5610> your <5216> Lord <2962> doth come <2064>.

43 But know <1097> this <1565>, that if <1487> the goodman <3617> of the house <3617> had known <1492> in what <4169> watch <5438> the thief <2812> would come <2064>, he would have watched <1127>, and would not have suffered <1439> his house <3614> to be broken <1358> up.

44 Therefore <5124> be ye also <2532> ready < 2092>: for in such an hour <5610> as ye think <1380> not the Son <5207> of man <0444> cometh <2064>.

45 Who <5101> then <0686> is a faithful <4103> and wise <5429> servant <1401>, whom <3739> his lord <2962> hath made <2525> ruler <2525> over <1909> his household <2322>, to give <1325> them meat <5160> in due season <2540>?

46 Blessed <3107> [is] that servant <1401>, whom <3739> his lord <2962> when he cometh <2064> shall find <2147> so <3779> doing <4160>.

47 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, That he shall make <2525> him ruler <2525> over <1909> all < 3956> his goods <5224>.

48 But and if <1437> that evil <2556> servant < 1401> shall say <2036> in his heart <2588>, My lord < 2962> delayeth <5549> his coming <2064>;

49 And shall begin <0756> to smite <5180> [his] fellowservants <4889>, and to eat <2068> and drink <4095> with the drunken <3184>;

50 The lord <2962> of that servant <1401> shall come <2240> in a day <2250> when he looketh <4328> not for [him], and in an hour <5610> that he is not aware <1097> of,

51 And shall cut <1371> him asunder <1371>, and appoint <5087> [him] his portion <3313> with the hypocrites <5273>: there <1563> shall be weeping <2805> and gnashing <1030> of teeth <3599>.

Matthew 25

1. Then <5119> shall the kingdom <0932> of heaven <3772> be likened <3666> unto ten <1176> virgins < 3933>, which <3748> took <2983> their lamps <2985>, and went <1831> forth <1831> to meet <0529> the bridegroom <3566>.

2 And five <4000> of them were wise <5429>, and five <4000> [were] foolish <3474>.

3 They that [were] foolish <3474> took <2983> their lamps <2985>, and took <2983> no <3756> oil <1637> with them:

4 But the wise <5429> took <2983> oil <1637> in their vessels <0030> with their lamps <2985>.

5 While the bridegroom <3566> tarried <5549>, they all <3956> slumbered <3573> and slept <2518>.

6 And at midnight <3571> there was a cry <2906> made <1096>, Behold <2400>, the bridegroom <3566> cometh <2064>; go <1831> ye out to meet <0529> him.

7 Then <5119> all <3956> those <1565> virgins <3933> arose <1453>, and trimmed <2885> their lamps < 2985>.

8 And the foolish <3474> said <2036> unto the wise <5429>, Give <1325> us of your <5216> oil <1637>; for our lamps <2985> are gone <4570> out.

9 But the wise <5429> answered <0611>, saying < 3004>, [Not so]; lest <3379> there be not enough <0714> for us and you: but go <4198> ye rather <3123> to them that sell <4453>, and buy <0059> for yourselves <1438>.

10 And while they went <0565> to buy <0059>, the bridegroom <3566> came <2064>; and they that were ready < 2092> went <1525> in with him to the marriage <1062>: and the door <2374> was shut <2808>.

11 Afterward <5305> came <2064> also <2532> the other <3062> virgins <3933>, saying <3004>, Lord < 2962>, Lord <2962>, open <0455> to us.

12 But he answered <0611> and said <2036>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, I know <1492> you not.

13 Watch <1127> therefore <3767>, for ye know < 1492> neither <3383> the day <2250> nor <3761> the hour <5610> wherein <3739> the Son <5207> of man < 0444> cometh <2064>.

14. For [the kingdom <0932> of heaven is] as a man < 0444> travelling <0589> into a far country <0589>, [who] called <2564> his own <2398> servants <1401>, and delivered <3860> unto them his goods <5224>.

15 And unto one <3303> he gave <1325> five < 4000> talents <5007>, to another <3739> two <1417>, and to another <3739> one <1520>; to every <1538> man according <2596> to his several <2398> ability <1411>; and straightway <2112> took <0589> his journey <0589>.

16 Then <1161> he that had received <2983> the five <4000> talents <5007> went <4198> and traded <2038> with the same <0846>, and made <4160> [them] other < 0243> five <4000> talents <5007>.

17 And likewise <5615> he that [had received] two < 1417>, he also <2532> gained <2770> other <0243> two <1417>.

18 But he that had received <2983> one <1520> went <0565> and digged <3736> in the earth <1093>, and hid <0613> his lord's <2962> money <0694>.

19 After <3326> a long <4183> time <5550> the lord <2962> of those <1565> servants <1401> cometh < 2064>, and reckoneth <3056> with them.

20 And so <2532> he that had received <2983> five <4000> talents <5007> came <4334> and brought < 4374> other <0243> five <4000> talents <5007>, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, thou deliveredst <3860> unto me five <4000> talents <5007>: behold <2396>, I have gained <2770> beside <1909> them five <4000> talents < 5007> more <0243>.

21 His lord <2962> said <5346> unto him, Well < 2095> done, [thou] good <0018> and faithful <4103> servant <1401>: thou hast been <2258> faithful <4103> over < 1909> a few <3641> things, I will make <2525> thee ruler <2525> over <1909> many <4183> things: enter <1525> thou into <1519> the joy <5479> of thy lord <2962>.

22 He also <2532> that had received <2983> two < 1417> talents <5007> came <4334> and said <2036>, Lord <2962>, thou deliveredst <3860> unto me two <1417> talents <5007>: behold <2396>, I have gained <2770> two <1417> other <0243> talents <5007> beside <1909> them.

23 His lord <2962> said <5346> unto him, Well < 2095> done, good <0018> and faithful <4103> servant < 1401>; thou hast been <2258> faithful <4103> over < 1909> a few <3641> things, I will make <2525> thee ruler <2525> over <1909> many <4183> things: enter <1525> thou into <1519> the joy <5479> of thy lord <2962>.

24 Then <1161> he which had received <2983> the one <1520> talent <5007> came <4334> and said <2036>, Lord <2962>, I knew <1097> thee that thou art <1488> an hard <4642> man <0444>, reaping <2325> where <3699> thou hast not sown <4687>, and gathering <4863> where < 3606> thou hast not strawed <1287>:

25 And I was afraid <5399>, and went <0565> and hid <2928> thy talent <5007> in the earth <1093>: lo < 2396>, [there] thou hast <2192> [that is] thine <4674>.

26 His lord <2962> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto him, [Thou] wicked <4190> and slothful <3636> servant <1401>, thou knewest <1492> that I reap <2325> where <3699> I sowed <4687> not, and gather <4863> where <3606> I have not strawed <1287>:

27 Thou oughtest <1163> therefore <3767> to have put <0906> my money <0694> to the exchangers <5133>, and [then] at my coming <2064> I should have received <2865> mine <1699> own with usury <5110>.

28 Take <0142> therefore <3767> the talent < 5007> from him, and give <1325> [it] unto him which hath < 2192> ten <1176> talents <5007>.

29 For unto every <3956> one that hath <2192> shall be given <1325>, and he shall have abundance <4052>: but from him that hath <2192> not shall be taken <0142> away < 0142> even <2532> that which he hath <2192>.

30 And cast <1544> ye the unprofitable <0888> servant <1401> into <1519> outer <1857> darkness < 4655>: there <1563> shall be weeping <2805> and gnashing <1030> of teeth <3599>.

31. When <3752> the Son <5207> of man <0444> shall come <2064> in his glory <1391>, and all <3956> the holy <0040> angels <0032> with him, then <5119> shall he sit <2523> upon the throne <2362> of his glory < 1391>:

32 And before <1715> him shall be gathered <4863> all <3956> nations <1484>: and he shall separate <0873> them one <0240> from another <0240>, as a shepherd <4166> divideth <0873> [his] sheep <4263> from the goats <2056> :

33 And he shall set <2476> the sheep <4263> on < 1537> his right <1188> hand, but the goats <2055> on < 1537> the left <2176>.

34 Then <5119> shall the King <0935> say < 2046> unto them on <1537> his right <1188> hand, Come < 1205>, ye blessed <2127> of my Father <3962>, inherit < 2816> the kingdom <0932> prepared <2090> for you from the foundation <2602> of the world <2889>:

35 For I was an hungred <3983>, and ye gave <1325> me meat <5315>: I was thirsty <1372>, and ye gave <4222> me drink <4222>: I was a stranger <3581>, and ye took < 4863> me in:

36 Naked <1131>, and ye clothed <4016> me: I was sick <0770>, and ye visited <1980> me: I was in prison < 5438>, and ye came <2064> unto me.

37 Then <5119> shall the righteous <1342> answer <0611> him, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, when <4218> saw <1492> we thee an hungred <3983>, and fed <5142> [thee]? or <2228> thirsty <1372>, and gave <4222> [thee] drink <4222>?

38 When <4218> saw <1492> we thee a stranger < 3581>, and took <4863> [thee] in? or <2228> naked < 1131>, and clothed <4016> [thee]?

39 Or <2228> when <4218> saw <1492> we thee sick <0772>, or <2228> in prison <5438>, and came < 2064> unto thee?

40 And the King <0935> shall answer <0611> and say <2046> unto them, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Inasmuch <3745> as ye have done <4160> [it] unto one < 1520> of the least <1646> of these <5130> my brethren < 0080>, ye have done <4160> [it] unto me.

41 Then <5119> shall he say <2046> also <2532> unto them on <1537> the left <2176> hand, Depart <4198> from me, ye cursed <2672>, into <1519> everlasting <0166> fire <4442>, prepared <2090> for the devil <1228> and his angels <0032>:

42 For I was an hungred <3983>, and ye gave <1325> me no <3756> meat <5315>: I was thirsty <1372>, and ye gave <4222> me no <3756> drink <4222>:

43 I was a stranger <3581>, and ye took <4863> me not in: naked <1131>, and ye clothed <4016> me not: sick < 0772>, and in prison <5438>, and ye visited <1980> me not.

44 Then <5119> shall they also <2532> answer < 0611> him, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, when <4218> saw <1492> we thee an hungred <3983>, or <2228> athirst <1372>, or <2228> a stranger <3581>, or <2228> naked <1131>, or <2228> sick <0772>, or <2228> in prison <5438>, and did not minister <1247> unto thee?

45 Then <5119> shall he answer <0611> them, saying <3004>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Inasmuch <3745> as ye did <4160> [it] not to one <1520> of the least <1646> of these <5130>, ye did <4160> [it] not to me.

46 And these <3778> shall go <0565> away < 0565> into <1519> everlasting <0166> punishment <2851> : but the righteous <1342> into <1519> life <2222> eternal <0166>.

Matthew 26

1. And it came <1096> to pass, when <3753> Jesus < 2424> had finished <5055> all <3956> these <5128> sayings <3056>, he said <2036> unto his disciples <3101>,

2 Ye know <1492> that after <3326> two <1417> days <2250> is [the feast of] the passover <3957>, and the Son <5207> of man <0444> is betrayed <3860> to be crucified <4717>.

3 Then <5119> assembled <4863> together <4863> the chief <0749> priests <0749>, and the scribes <1122>, and the elders <4245> of the people <2992>, unto the palace <0833> of the high <0749> priest <0749>, who <3588> was called <3004> Caiaphas <2533>,

4 And consulted <4823> that they might take <2902> Jesus <2424> by subtilty <1388>, and kill <0615> [him].

5 But they said <3004>, Not on <1722> the feast < 1859> [day], lest <3361> there be an uproar <2351> among <1722> the people <2992>.

6. Now <1161> when Jesus <2424> was in Bethany < 0963>, in the house <3614> of Simon <4613> the leper < 3015>,

7 There came <4334> unto him a woman <1135> having <2192> an alabaster <0211> box <0211> of very < 0927> precious <0927> ointment <3464>, and poured < 2708> it on <1909> his head <2776>, as he sat <0345> [at <0345> meat].

8 But when his disciples <3101> saw <1492> [it], they had indignation <0023>, saying <3004>, To what < 5101> purpose [is] this <3778> waste <0684>?

9 For this <5124> ointment <3464> might <1410> have been sold <4097> for much <4183>, and given <1325> to the poor <4434>.

10 When Jesus <2424> understood <1097> [it], he said <2036> unto them, Why <5101> trouble <3930> ye the woman <1135>? for she hath wrought <2038> a good <0018> work <2041> upon me.

11 For ye have <2192> the poor <4434> always < 3842> with you; but me ye have <2192> not always <3842>.

12 For in that she hath poured <0906> this <5124> ointment <3464> on <1909> my body <4983>, she did < 4160> [it] for my burial <1779>.

13 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Wheresoever <1437> this <5124> gospel <2098> shall be preached < 2784> in the whole <3650> world <2889>, [there] shall also <2532> this <3778>, that this <3778> woman hath done < 4160>, be told <2980> for a memorial <3422> of her.

14. Then <5119> one <1520> of the twelve <1427> , called <3004> Judas <2455> Iscariot <2469>, went < 4198> unto the chief <0749> priests <0749>,

15 And said <2036> [unto them], What <5101> will <2309> ye give <1325> me, and I will deliver <3860> him unto you? And they covenanted <2476> with him for thirty <5144> pieces of silver <0694>.

16 And from that time <5119> he sought <2212> opportunity <2120> to betray <3860> him.

17. Now <1161> the first <4413> [day] of the [feast of] unleavened <0106> bread the disciples <3101> came < 4334> to Jesus <2424>, saying <3004> unto him, Where < 4226> wilt <2309> thou that we prepare <2090> for thee to eat <5315> the passover <3957>?

18 And he said <2036>, Go <5217> into <1519> the city <4172> to such <1170> a man, and say <2036> unto him, The Master <1320> saith <3004>, My time <2540> is at <1451> hand <1451>; I will keep <4160> the passover <3957> at <4314> thy house with my disciples < 3101>.

19 And the disciples <3101> did <4160> as Jesus < 2424> had appointed <4929> them; and they made <2090> ready <2090> the passover <3957>.

20 Now <1161> when the even <3798> was come < 1096>, he sat <0345> down <0345> with the twelve < 1427>.

21 And as they did eat <2068>, he said <2036>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, that one <1520> of you shall betray <3860> me.

22 And they were exceeding <4970> sorrowful <3076>, and began <0756> every <1538> one of them to say <3004> unto him, Lord <2962>, is it I?

23 And he answered <0611> and said <2036>, He that dippeth <1686> [his] hand <5495> with me in the dish < 5165>, the same <3778> shall betray <3860> me.

24 The Son <5207> of man <0444> goeth <5217> as it is written <1125> of him: but woe <3759> unto that man <0444> by whom <3739> the Son <5207> of man <0444> is betrayed <3860>! it had been <2258> good <0018> for that man <0444> if <1487> he had not been born <1080>.

25 Then <1161> Judas <2455>, which <3588> betrayed <3860> him, answered <0611> and said <2036>, Master <4461>, is it I? He said <3004> unto him, Thou hast said <2036>.

26. And as they were eating <2068>, Jesus <2424> took <2983> bread <0740>, and blessed <2127> [it], and brake <2806> [it], and gave <1325> [it] to the disciples < 3101>, and said <2036>, Take <2983>, eat <5315>; this <5124> is my body <4983>.

27 And he took <2983> the cup <4221>, and gave < 1325> thanks <2168>, and gave <1325> [it] to them, saying <3004>, Drink <4095> ye all <3956> of it;

28 For this <5124> is my blood <0129> of the new <2537> testament <1242>, which <3588> is shed < 1632> for many <4183> for the remission <0859> of sins < 0266>.

29 But I say <3004> unto you, I will not drink < 4095> henceforth <0737> of this <5127> fruit <1081> of the vine <0288>, until <2193> that day <2250> when <3752> I drink <4095> it new <2537> with you in my Father's <3962> kingdom <0932>.

30 And when they had sung <5214> an hymn <5214>, they went <1831> out into <1519> the mount <3735> of Olives <1636>.

31. Then <5119> saith <3004> Jesus <2424> unto them, All <3956> ye shall be offended <4624> because < 1722> of me this <5026> night <3571>: for it is written < 1125>, I will smite <3960> the shepherd <4166>, and the sheep <4263> of the flock <4167> shall be scattered < 1287> abroad <1287>.

32 But after <3326> I am risen <1453> again < 1453>, I will go <4254> before <4254> you into <1519> Galilee <1056>.

33 Peter <4074> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto him, Though <1499> all <3956> [men] shall be offended <4624> because <1722> of thee, [yet] will I never < 3763> be offended <4624>.

34 Jesus <2424> said <5346> unto him, Verily < 0281> I say <5346> unto thee, That this <5026> night < 3571>, before <4250> the cock <0220> crow <5455>, thou shalt deny <0533> me thrice <5151>.

35 Peter <4074> said <3004> unto him, Though < 2579> I should <1163> die <0599> with thee, yet <3364> will I not deny <0533> thee. Likewise <3668> also <2532> said <2036> all <3956> the disciples <3101>.

36. Then <5119> cometh <2064> Jesus <2424> with them unto a place <5564> called <3004> Gethsemane < 1068>, and saith <3004> unto the disciples <3101>, Sit < 2523> ye here <0848>, while <2193> I go <0565> and pray <4336> yonder <1563>.

37 And he took <3880> with him Peter <4074> and the two <1417> sons <5207> of Zebedee <2199>, and began < 0756> to be sorrowful <3076> and very <0085> heavy < 0085>.

38 Then <5119> saith <3004> he unto them, My soul <5590> is exceeding <4036> sorrowful <4036>, even unto death <2288>: tarry <3306> ye here <5602>, and watch < 1127> with me.

39 And he went <4281> a little <3397> further < 4281>, and fell <4098> on <1909> his face <4383>, and prayed <4336>, saying <3004>, O my Father <3962>, if < 1487> it be possible <1415>, let this <5124> cup < 4221> pass <3928> from me: nevertheless <4133> not as I will <2309>, but as thou [wilt].

40 And he cometh <2064> unto the disciples <3101>, and findeth <2147> them asleep <2518>, and saith <3004> unto Peter <4074>, What <3779>, could <2480> ye not watch <1127> with me one <3391> hour <5610>?

41 Watch <1127> and pray <4336>, that ye enter < 1525> not into <1519> temptation <3986>: the spirit < 4151> indeed <3303> [is] willing <4289>, but the flesh < 4561> [is] weak <0772>.

42 He went <0565> away <0565> again <3825> the second <1208> time, and prayed <4336>, saying <3004>, O my Father <3962>, if <1487> this <5124> cup < 4221> may <1410> not pass <3928> away <3928> from me, except <3362> I drink <4095> it, thy will <2307> be done <1096>.

43 And he came <2064> and found <2147> them asleep <2518> again <3825>: for their eyes <3788> were heavy <0916>.

44 And he left <0863> them, and went <0565> away <0565> again <3825>, and prayed <4336> the third < 5154> time, saying <2036> the same <0846> words <3056> .

45 Then <5119> cometh <2064> he to his disciples <3101>, and saith <3004> unto them, Sleep <2518> on now <3063>, and take [your] rest <0373>: behold <2400>, the hour <5610> is at <1448> hand <1448>, and the Son < 5207> of man <0444> is betrayed <3860> into <1519> the hands <5495> of sinners <0268>.

46 Rise <1453>, let us be going <0071>: behold < 2400>, he is at <1448> hand <1448> that doth betray < 3860> me.

47. And while he yet <2089> spake <2980>, lo < 2400>, Judas <2455>, one <1520> of the twelve <1427>, came <2064>, and with him a great <4183> multitude <3793> with swords <3162> and staves <3586>, from the chief < 0749> priests <0749> and elders <4245> of the people < 2992>.

48 Now <1161> he that betrayed <3860> him gave < 1325> them a sign <4592>, saying <3004>, Whomsoever < 0302> I shall kiss <5368>, that same <0846> is he: hold < 2902> him fast.

49 And forthwith <2112> he came <4334> to Jesus < 2424>, and said <2036>, Hail <5463>, master <4461>; and kissed <2705> him.

50 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Friend <2083>, wherefore <3739> art thou come <3918>? Then < 5119> came <4334> they, and laid <1911> hands <5495> on <1909> Jesus <2424>, and took <2902> him.

51 And, behold <2400>, one <1520> of them which were with Jesus <2424> stretched <1614> out [his] hand < 5495>, and drew <0645> his sword <3162>, and struck < 3960> a servant <1401> of the high <0749> priest's < 0749>, and smote <0851> off <0851> his ear <5621>.

52 Then <5119> said <3004> Jesus <2424> unto him, Put <0654> up again <0654> thy sword <3162> into <1519> his place <5117>: for all <3956> they that take <2983> the sword <3162> shall perish <0622> with the sword <3162>.

53 Thinkest <1380> thou that I cannot <1410> now <0737> pray <3870> to my Father <3962>, and he shall presently <3936> give <3936> me more <4119> than < 2228> twelve <1427> legions <3003> of angels <0032>?

54 But how <4459> then <3767> shall the scriptures <1124> be fulfilled <4137>, that thus <3779> it must < 1163> be?

55 In that same <1565> hour <5610> said <2036> Jesus <2424> to the multitudes <3793>, Are ye come < 1831> out as against <1909> a thief <3027> with swords < 3162> and staves <3586> for to take <4815> me? I sat < 2516> daily <2250> with you teaching <1321> in the temple <2411>, and ye laid no <3756> hold <2902> on me.

56 But all <3650> this <5124> was done <1096>, that the scriptures <1124> of the prophets <4396> might be fulfilled <4137>. Then <5119> all <3956> the disciples <3101> forsook <0863> him, and fled <5343>.

57. And they that had laid hold <2902> on Jesus < 2424> led <0520> [him] away <0520> to Caiaphas <2533> the high <0749> priest <0749>, where <3699> the scribes <1122> and the elders <4245> were assembled <4863>.

58 But Peter <4074> followed <0190> him afar < 3113> off <0575> unto the high <0749> priest's <0749> palace <0833>, and went <1525> in, and sat <2521> with the servants <5257>, to see <1492> the end <5056>.

59 Now the chief <0749> priests <0749>, and elders <4245>, and all <3650> the council <4892>, sought < 2212> false <5580> witness <5577> against <2596> Jesus <2424>, to put <2289> him to death <2289>;

60 But found <2147> none <3756>: yea <2532>, though many <4183> false <5575> witnesses <5575> came <4334>, [yet] found they none <3756>. At the last <5305> came <4334> two <1417> false <5575> witnesses < 5575>,

61 And said <2036>, This <3778> [fellow] said < 5346>, I am able <1410> to destroy <2647> the temple < 3485> of God <2316>, and to build <3618> it in three < 5140> days <2250>.

62 And the high <0749> priest <0749> arose < 0450>, and said <2036> unto him, Answerest <0611> thou nothing <3762>? what <5101> [is it which] these <3778> witness <2649> against <2649> thee?

63 But Jesus <2424> held <4623> his peace < 4623>. And the high <0749> priest <0749> answered < 0611> and said <2036> unto him, I adjure <1844> thee by the living <2198> God <2316>, that thou tell <2036> us whether <1487> thou be the Christ <5547>, the Son <5207> of God <2316>.

64 Jesus <2424> saith <3004> unto him, Thou hast said <2036>: nevertheless <4133> I say <3004> unto you, Hereafter <0737> shall ye see <3700> the Son <5207> of man <0444> sitting <2521> on <1537> the right < 1188> hand of power <1411>, and coming <2064> in the clouds <3507> of heaven <3772>.

65 Then <5119> the high <0749> priest <0749> rent <1284> his clothes <2440>, saying <3004>, He hath spoken <0987> blasphemy <0987>; what <5101> further < 2089> need <5532> have <2192> we of witnesses <3144>? behold <2396>, now <3568> ye have heard <0191> his blasphemy <0988>.

66 What <5101> think <1380> ye? They answered < 0611> and said <2036>, He is guilty <1777> of death < 2288>.

67 Then <5119> did they spit <1716> in his face < 4383>, and buffeted <2852> him; and others <3588> smote < 4474> [him] with the palms <4474> of their hands,

68 Saying <3004>, Prophesy <4395> unto us, thou Christ <5547>, Who <5101> is he that smote <3817> thee?

69. Now <1161> Peter <4074> sat <2521> without <1854> in the palace <0833>: and a damsel <3814> came <4334> unto him, saying <3004>, Thou also <2532> wast <2258> with Jesus <2424> of Galilee <1056>.

70 But he denied <0720> before <1715> [them] all <3956>, saying <3004>, I know <1492> not what < 5101> thou sayest <3004>.

71 And when he was gone <1831> out into <1519> the porch <4440>, another <0243> [maid] saw <1492> him, and said <3004> unto them that were there <1563>, This <3778> [fellow] was also <2532> with Jesus <2424> of Nazareth < 3478>.

72 And again <3825> he denied <0720> with an oath <3727>, I do not know <1492> the man <0444>.

73 And after <3326> a while <3397> came <4334> unto [him] they that stood <2476> by, and said <2036> to Peter <4074>, Surely <0230> thou also <2532> art < 1488> [one] of them; for thy speech <2981> bewrayeth <1212> thee.

74 Then <5119> began <0756> he to curse <2653> and to swear <3660>, [saying], I know <1492> not the man < 0444>. And immediately <2112> the cock <0220> crew < 5455>.

75 And Peter <4074> remembered <3415> the word < 4487> of Jesus <2424>, which <3588> said <2046> unto him, Before <4250> the cock <0220> crow <5455>, thou shalt deny <0533> me thrice <5151>. And he went <1831> out, and wept <2799> bitterly <4090>.

Matthew 27

1. When the morning <4405> was come <1096>, all < 3956> the chief <0749> priests <0749> and elders < 4245> of the people <2992> took <2983> counsel <4824> against <2596> Jesus <2424> to put <2289> him to death <2289>:

2 And when they had bound <1210> him, they led < 0520> [him] away <0520>, and delivered <3860> him to Pontius <4194> Pilate <4091> the governor <2232>.

3 Then <5119> Judas <2455>, which <3588> had betrayed <3860> him, when he saw <1492> that he was condemned <2632>, repented <3338> himself, and brought <0654> again <0654> the thirty <5144> pieces of silver <0694> to the chief <0749> priests <0749> and elders <4245>,

4 Saying <3004>, I have sinned <0264> in that I have betrayed <3860> the innocent <0121> blood <0129>. And they said <2036>, What <5101> [is that] to us? see < 3700> thou [to that].

5 And he cast <4496> down <4496> the pieces of silver <0694> in the temple <3485>, and departed <0402>, and went <0565> and hanged <0519> himself.

6 And the chief <0749> priests <0749> took < 2983> the silver <0694> pieces, and said <2036>, It is not lawful <1832> for to put <0906> them into <1519> the treasury <2878>, because <1893> it is the price <5092> of blood <0129>.

7 And they took <2983> counsel <4824>, and bought <0059> with them the potter's <2763> field <0068>, to bury <5027> strangers <3581> in.

8 Wherefore <1352> that field <0068> was called < 2564>, The field <0068> of blood <0129>, unto this < 4594> day <4594>.

9 Then <5119> was fulfilled <4137> that which < 3588> was spoken <4483> by Jeremy <2408> the prophet < 4396>, saying <3004>, And they took <2983> the thirty < 5144> pieces of silver <0694>, the price <5092> of him that was valued <5091>, whom <3739> they of the children < 5207> of Israel <2474> did value <5091>;

10 And gave <1325> them for the potter's <2763> field <0068>, as the Lord <2962> appointed <4929> me.

11. And Jesus <2424> stood <2476> before <1715> the governor <2232>: and the governor <2232> asked < 1905> him, saying <3004>, Art <1488> thou the King < 0935> of the Jews <2453>? And Jesus <2424> said <5346> unto him, Thou sayest <3004>.

12 And when <3588> he was accused <2723> of the chief <0749> priests <0749> and elders <4245>, he answered <0611> nothing <3762>.

13 Then <5119> said <3004> Pilate <4091> unto him, Hearest <0191> thou not how <4214> many <4214> things they witness <2649> against thee?

14 And he answered <0611> him to never <1520> a word <4487>; insomuch <5620> that the governor <2232> marvelled <2296> greatly <3029>.

15 Now <1161> at <2596> [that] feast <1859> the governor <2232> was wont <1486> to release <0630> unto the people <3793> a prisoner <1198>, whom <3739> they would <2309>.

16 And they had <2192> then <5119> a notable < 1978> prisoner <1198>, called <3004> Barabbas <0912>.

17 Therefore <3767> when they were gathered <4863> together <4863>, Pilate <4091> said <2036> unto them, Whom <5101> will <2309> ye that I release <0630> unto you? Barabbas <0912>, or <2228> Jesus <2424> which < 3588> is called <3004> Christ <5547>?

18 For he knew <1492> that for envy <5355> they had delivered <3860> him.

19 When he was set <2521> down <2521> on < 1909> the judgment <0968> seat <0968>, his wife <1135> sent <0649> unto him, saying <3004>, Have thou nothing < 3367> to do with that just <1342> man: for I have suffered < 3958> many <4183> things this <4594> day <4594> in a dream <3677> because <1223> of him.

20 But the chief <0749> priests <0749> and elders <4245> persuaded <3982> the multitude <3793> that they should ask <0154> Barabbas <0912>, and destroy <0622> Jesus <2424>.

21 The governor <2232> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto them, Whether <5101> of the twain <1417> will <2309> ye that I release <0630> unto you? They said < 2036>, Barabbas <0912>.

22 Pilate <4091> saith <3004> unto them, What < 5101> shall I do <4160> then <3767> with Jesus <2424> which <3588> is called <3004> Christ <5547>? [They] all <3956> say <3004> unto him, Let him be crucified <4717>.

23 And the governor <2232> said <5346>, Why < 1063>, what <5101> evil <2556> hath he done <4160>? But they cried <2896> out the more <4057>, saying <3004>, Let him be crucified <4717>.

24 When Pilate <4091> saw <1492> that he could prevail <5623> nothing <3762>, but [that] rather <3123> a tumult <2351> was made <1096>, he took <2983> water <5204>, and washed <0633> [his] hands <5495> before < 0561> the multitude <3793>, saying <3004>, I am <1510> innocent <0121> of the blood <0129> of this <5127> just <1342> person: see <3700> ye [to it].

25 Then <2532> answered <0611> all <3956> the people <2992>, and said <2036>, His blood <0129> [be] on <1909> us, and on <1909> our children <5043>.

26. Then <5119> released <0630> he Barabbas < 0912> unto them: and when he had scourged <5417> Jesus < 2424>, he delivered <3860> [him] to be crucified <4717>.

27 Then <5119> the soldiers <4757> of the governor <2232> took <3880> Jesus <2424> into <1519> the common <4232> hall <4232>, and gathered <4863> unto him the whole <3650> band <4686> [of soldiers].

28 And they stripped <1562> him, and put <4060> on <4060> him a scarlet <2847> robe <5511>.

29 And when they had platted <4120> a crown <4735> of thorns <0173>, they put <2007> [it] upon his head < 2776>, and a reed <2563> in his right <1188> hand: and they bowed <1120> the knee before <1715> him, and mocked < 1702> him, saying <3004>, Hail <5463>, King <0935> of the Jews <2453>!

30 And they spit <1716> upon him, and took <2983> the reed <2563>, and smote <5180> him on <1519> the head <2776>.

31 And after <3753> that they had mocked <1702> him, they took <1562> the robe <5511> off <1562> from him, and put <1745> his own raiment <2440> on <1746> him, and led <0520> him away <0520> to crucify <4717> [him].

32 And as they came <1831> out, they found <2147> a man <0444> of Cyrene <2957>, Simon <4613> by name < 3686>: him they compelled <0029> to bear <0142> his cross <4716>.

33. And when they were come <2064> unto a place < 5117> called <3004> Golgotha <1115>, that is to say < 3004>, a place <5117> of a skull <2898>,

34 They gave <1325> him vinegar <3690> to drink < 4095> mingled <3396> with gall <5521>: and when he had tasted <1089> [thereof], he would <2309> not drink <4095> .

35 And they crucified <4717> him, and parted <1266> his garments <2440>, casting <0906> lots <2819>: that it might be fulfilled <4137> which <3588> was spoken <4483> by the prophet <4396>, They parted <1266> my garments < 2440> among them, and upon my vesture <2441> did they cast < 0906> lots <2819>.

36 And sitting <2521> down <2521> they watched < 5083> him there <1563>;

37 And set <2007> up over <1883> his head < 2776> his accusation <0156> written <1125>, THIS < 3778> IS JESUS <2424> THE KING <0935> OF THE JEWS < 2453>.

38 Then <5119> were there two <1417> thieves < 3027> crucified <4717> with him, one <1520> on <1537> the right <1188> hand, and another <1520> on <1537> the left <2176>.

39 And they that passed <3899> by reviled <0987> him, wagging <2795> their heads <2776>,

40 And saying <3004>, Thou that destroyest <2647> the temple <3485>, and buildest <3618> [it] in three < 5140> days <2250>, save <4982> thyself <4572>. If < 1487> thou be the Son <5207> of God <2316>, come < 2597> down <2597> from the cross <4716>.

41 Likewise <3668> also <1161> the chief < 0749> priests <0749> mocking <1702> [him], with the scribes <1122> and elders <4245>, said <3004>,

42 He saved <4982> others <0243>; himself < 1438> he cannot <1410> save <4982>. If <1487> he be the King <0935> of Israel <2474>, let him now <3568> come <2597> down <2597> from the cross <4716>, and we will believe <4100> him.

43 He trusted <3982> in God <2316>; let him deliver <4506> him now <3568>, if <1487> he will <2309> have him: for he said <2036>, I am <1510> the Son <5207> of God <2316>.

44 The thieves <3027> also <2532>, which < 3588> were crucified <4957> with him, cast <3679> the same <0846> in his teeth <3679>.

45 Now <1161> from the sixth <1623> hour < 5610> there was darkness <4655> over <1909> all <3956> the land <1093> unto the ninth <1766> hour <5610>.

46 And about <4012> the ninth <1766> hour < 5610> Jesus <2424> cried <0310> with a loud <3173> voice <5456>, saying <3004>, Eli <2241>, Eli <2241> , lama <2982> sabachthani <4518>? that is to say, My God < 2316>, my God <2316>, why <2444> hast thou forsaken < 1459> me?

47 Some <5100> of them that stood <2476> there < 1563>, when they heard <0191> [that], said <3004>, This < 3778> [man] calleth <5455> for Elias <2243>.

48 And straightway <2112> one <1520> of them ran <5143>, and took <2983> a spunge <4699>, and filled < 4130> [it] with vinegar <3690>, and put <4060> [it] on < 4060> a reed <2563>, and gave <4222> him to drink.

49 The rest <3062> said <3004>, Let <0863> be, let us see <1492> whether <1487> Elias <2243> will come <2064> to save <4982> him.

50. Jesus <2424>, when he had cried <2896> again < 3825> with a loud <3173> voice <5456>, yielded <0863> up the ghost <4151>.

51 And, behold <2400>, the veil <2665> of the temple <3485> was rent <4977> in twain <1417> from the top <0509> to the bottom <2736>; and the earth <1093> did quake <4579>, and the rocks <4073> rent <4977>;

52 And the graves <3419> were opened <0455>; and many <4183> bodies <4983> of the saints <0040> which < 3588> slept <2837> arose <1453>,

53 And came <1831> out of the graves <3419> after <3326> his resurrection <1454>, and went <1525> into < 1519> the holy <0040> city <4172>, and appeared <1718> unto many <4183>.

54 Now <1161> when the centurion <1543>, and they that were with him, watching <5083> Jesus <2424>, saw < 1492> the earthquake <4578>, and those <3588> things that were done <1096>, they feared <5399> greatly <4970>, saying <3004>, Truly <0230> this <3778> was the Son < 5207> of God <2316>.

55 And many <4183> women <1135> were there < 1563> beholding <2334> afar <3113> off <0575>, which <3748> followed <0190> Jesus <2424> from Galilee < 1056>, ministering <1247> unto him:

56 Among <1722> which <3739> was Mary <3137> Magdalene <3094>, and Mary <3137> the mother <3384> of James <2385> and Joses <2500>, and the mother <3384> of Zebedee's <2199> children <5207>.

57. When the even <3798> was come <1096>, there came <2064> a rich <4145> man <0444> of Arimathaea < 0707>, named <3686> Joseph <2501>, who <3739> also <2532> himself <0846> was Jesus <2424>' disciple < 3100>:

58 He went <4344> to Pilate <4091>, and begged < 0154> the body <4983> of Jesus <2424>. Then <5119> Pilate <4091> commanded <2753> the body <4983> to be delivered <0591>.

59 And when Joseph <2501> had taken <2983> the body <4983>, he wrapped <1794> it in a clean <2513> linen < 4616> cloth <4616>,

60 And laid <5087> it in his own new <2537> tomb <3419>, which <3739> he had hewn <2998> out in the rock <4073>: and he rolled <4351> a great <3173> stone < 3037> to the door <2374> of the sepulchre <3419>, and departed <0565>.

61 And there <1563> was Mary <3137> Magdalene < 3094>, and the other <0243> Mary <3137>, sitting < 2521> over <0561> against <0561> the sepulchre <5028>.

62 Now <1161> the next <1887> day <1887>, that followed <3326> the day of the preparation <3904>, the chief <0749> priests <0749> and Pharisees <5330> came <4863> together <4863> unto Pilate <4091>,

63 Saying <3004>, Sir <2962>, we remember < 3415> that that deceiver <4108> said <2036>, while he was yet <2089> alive <2198>, After <3326> three <5140> days <2250> I will rise <1453> again <1453>.

64 Command <2753> therefore <3767> that the sepulchre <5028> be made <0805> sure <0805> until < 2193> the third <5154> day <2250>, lest <3379> his disciples <3101> come <2064> by night <3571>, and steal <2813> him away, and say <2036> unto the people <2992>, He is risen <1453> from the dead <3498>: so <2532> the last <2078> error <4106> shall be worse <5501> than the first <4413>.

65 Pilate <4091> said <5346> unto them, Ye have < 2192> a watch <2892>: go <5217> your way, make <0805> [it] as sure <0805> as ye can <1492>.

66 So <1161> they went <4198>, and made <0805> the sepulchre <5028> sure <0805>, sealing <4972> the stone <3037>, and setting <3326> a watch <2892>.

Matthew 28

1. In the end <3796> of the sabbath <4521>, as it began <2020> to dawn <2020> toward <1519> the first < 3391> [day] of the week <4521>, came <2064> Mary < 3137> Magdalene <3094> and the other <0243> Mary < 3137> to see <2334> the sepulchre <5028>.

2 And, behold <2400>, there was a great <3173> earthquake <4578>: for the angel <0032> of the Lord < 2962> descended <2597> from heaven <3772>, and came < 4334> and rolled <0617> back <0617> the stone <3037> from the door <2374>, and sat <2521> upon it.

3 His countenance <2397> was like <5613> lightning <0796>, and his raiment <1742> white <3022> as snow < 5510>:

4 And for fear <5401> of him the keepers <5083> did shake <4579>, and became <1096> as dead <3498> [men].

5 And the angel <0032> answered <0611> and said < 2036> unto the women <1135>, Fear <5399> not ye: for I know <1492> that ye seek <2212> Jesus <2424>, which < 3588> was crucified <4717>.

6 He is not here <5602>: for he is risen <1453>, as he said <2036>. Come <1205>, see <1492> the place < 5117> where <3699> the Lord <2962> lay <2749>.

7 And go <4198> quickly <5035>, and tell < 2036> his disciples <3101> that he is risen <1453> from the dead <3498>; and, behold <2400>, he goeth <4254> before <4254> you into <1519> Galilee <1056>; there <1563> shall ye see <3700> him: lo <2400>, I have told <2036> you.

8 And they departed <1831> quickly <5035> from the sepulchre <3419> with fear <5401> and great <3173> joy <5479>; and did run <5143> to bring <0518> his disciples <3101> word <0518>.

9 And as they went <4198> to tell <0518> his disciples <3101>, behold <2400>, Jesus <2424> met < 0528> them, saying <3004>, All hail <5463>. And they came <4334> and held <2902> him by the feet <4228>, and worshipped <4352> him.

10 Then <5119> said <3004> Jesus <2424> unto them, Be not afraid <5399>: go <0565> tell <0518> my brethren <0080> that they go <5217> into <1519> Galilee <1056>, and there <1563> shall they see <3700> me.

11. Now <1161> when they were going <4108>, behold <2400>, some <5100> of the watch <2892> came <2064> into <1519> the city <4172>, and shewed <0518> unto the chief <0749> priests <0749> all <0537> the things that were done <1096>.

12 And when they were assembled <4863> with the elders <4245>, and had taken <2983> counsel <4824>, they gave <1325> large <2425> money <0694> unto the soldiers < 4757>,

13 Saying <3004>, Say <2036> ye, His disciples < 3101> came <2064> by night <3571>, and stole <2813> him [away] while we slept <2837>.

14 And if <1437> this <5124> come <0191> to the governor's <2232> ears <0191>, we will persuade < 3982> him, and secure <0275> you.

15 So <1161> they took <2983> the money <0694> , and did <4160> as they were taught <1321>: and this < 3778> saying <3056> is commonly <1310> reported <1310> among <1722> the Jews <2453> until <3360> this < 4594> day <4594>.

16. Then <1161> the eleven <1733> disciples < 3101> went <4198> away into <1519> Galilee <1056>, into <1519> a mountain <3735> where <3757> Jesus < 2424> had appointed <5021> them.

17 And when they saw <1492> him, they worshipped < 4352> him: but some <3588> doubted <1365>.

18 And Jesus <2424> came <4334> and spake < 2980> unto them, saying <3004>, All <3956> power < 1849> is given <1325> unto me in heaven <3772> and in earth <1093>.

19 Go <4198> ye therefore <3767>, and teach < 3100> all <3956> nations <1484>, baptizing <0907> them in the name <3686> of the Father <3962>, and of the Son <5207>, and of the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>:

20 Teaching <1321> them to observe <5083> all < 3956> things whatsoever <3745> I have commanded <1781> you: and, lo <2400>, I am <1510> with you alway <2250>, [even] unto the end <4930> of the world <0165>. Amen < 0281>.
