noyes@Matthew:1:1 @ The genealogy of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham.

noyes@Matthew:1:2 @ Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brothers.

noyes@Matthew:1:3 @ And Judah begat Pharez and Zarah, by Tamar. And Pharez begat Hezron; and Hezron begat Ram;

noyes@Matthew:1:4 @ and Ram begat Amminadab; and Amminadab begat Nahshon; and Nahshon begat Salmon;

noyes@Matthew:1:5 @ and Salmon begat Boaz by Rahab. And Boaz begat Obed by Ruth. And Obed begat Jesse;

noyes@Matthew:1:6 @ and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon by the wife of Uriah.

noyes@Matthew:1:7 @ And Solomon begat Rehoboam; and Rehoboam begat Abijah; and Abijah begat Asa;

noyes@Matthew:1:8 @ and Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Uzziah;

noyes@Matthew:1:9 @ and Uzziah begat Jotham; and Jotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat Hezekiah;

noyes@Matthew:1:10 @ and Hezekiah begat Manasseh; and Manasseh begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah;

noyes@Matthew:1:11 @ and Josiah begat Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the removal to Babylon.

noyes@Matthew:1:12 @ And after the removal to Babylon, Jeconiah begat Shealtiel; and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel;

noyes@Matthew:1:13 @ and Zerubbabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

noyes@Matthew:1:14 @ and Azor begat Zadok; and Zadok begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

noyes@Matthew:1:15 @ and Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;

noyes@Matthew:1:16 @ and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

noyes@Matthew:1:17 @ So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the removal to Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the removal to Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.

noyes@Matthew:1:18 @ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this manner. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.

noyes@Matthew:1:19 @ Then Joseph her husband, being righteous, and not willing to expose her to shame, purposed to put her away privately.

noyes@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he thought on these things, lo! an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit.

noyes@Matthew:1:21 @ And she will bear a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for he will save his people from their sins.

noyes@Matthew:1:22 @ Now all this took place, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

noyes@Matthew:1:23 @ "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel;" that is, when interpreted, God–is with–us.

noyes@Matthew:1:24 @ Then Joseph, on waking up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took to him his wife;

noyes@Matthew:1:25 @ and he knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name Jesus.

noyes@Matthew:2:1 @ Now when Jesus had been born in Bethlehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, lo! there came magians from the East to Jerusalem,

noyes@Matthew:2:2 @ saying, Where is the king of the Jews that hath been born? for we saw his star in the East, and came to do him homage.

noyes@Matthew:2:3 @ But when Herod the king heard of these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him;

noyes@Matthew:2:4 @ and assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.

noyes@Matthew:2:5 @ And they said to him, In Bethlehem of Judaea; for thus it is written by the prophet:

noyes@Matthew:2:6 @ "And thou Bethlehem, land of Judah, art by no means least among the princes of Judah; for out of thee shall come a ruler, who shall feed my people Israel."

noyes@Matthew:2:7 @ Then Herod, having privately called the magians ascertained from them exactly the time when the star appeared.

noyes@Matthew:2:8 @ And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search carefully for the child; and when ye have found him, bring me word, that I also may go and do him homage.

noyes@Matthew:2:9 @ When they had heard the king, they departed. And lo! the star, which they had seen in the East, went before them, till it came and stood over where the child was.

noyes@Matthew:2:10 @ When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy;

noyes@Matthew:2:11 @ and when they had come into the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and did homage to him; and opening their treasures, they presented him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.

noyes@Matthew:2:12 @ And having been warned by God in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.

noyes@Matthew:2:13 @ And when they had gone, lo! an angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and remain there until I speak to thee; for Herod will seek the child, to destroy him.

noyes@Matthew:2:14 @ And he arose, and took the child and his mother by night, and went to Egypt;

noyes@Matthew:2:15 @ and was there until the death of Herod; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "I called my son out of Egypt."

noyes@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, when he saw that he had been deceived by the magians, was greatly enraged; and sent forth, and slew all the male children that were in Bethlehem, and in all its borders, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had ascertained from the magians.

noyes@Matthew:2:17 @ Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying,

noyes@Matthew:2:18 @ "A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping, and great mourning; Rachel weeping for her children, and refusing to be comforted, because they were no more."

noyes@Matthew:2:19 @ But when Herod was dead, lo! an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,

noyes@Matthew:2:20 @ saying, Arise, and take the child and his mother, and go to the land of Israel; for they who sought the child’s life are dead.

noyes@Matthew:2:21 @ And he arose, and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

noyes@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judaea in the place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither; and being warned by God in a dream, he withdrew into the parts of Galilee,

noyes@Matthew:2:23 @ and came and took up his abode in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, "He will be called a Nazarene,"

noyes@Matthew:3:1 @ In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

noyes@Matthew:3:2 @ saying, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

noyes@Matthew:3:3 @ For this is he that was spoken of through Isaiah the prophet, saying, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths!"

noyes@Matthew:3:4 @ And John himself had his raiment of camel’s hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

noyes@Matthew:3:5 @ Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the country about the Jordan;

noyes@Matthew:3:6 @ and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

noyes@Matthew:3:7 @ But seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to be baptized, he said to them, Brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

noyes@Matthew:3:8 @ Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of repentance,

noyes@Matthew:3:9 @ and think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.

noyes@Matthew:3:10 @ And already is the axe lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that beareth not good fruit is to be cut down, and cast into the fire.

noyes@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed baptize you in water, for repentance; but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to bear; he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.

noyes@Matthew:3:12 @ His winnowing–shovel is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing–floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.

noyes@Matthew:3:13 @ Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.

noyes@Matthew:3:14 @ But John opposed him, saying, I have need to be baptized by thee, and dost thou come to me?

noyes@Matthew:3:15 @ And Jesus answering said to him, Suffer it now; for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

noyes@Matthew:3:16 @ And Jesus, as soon as he was baptized, went up from the water; and, lo! the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God, descending like a dove, coming upon him.

noyes@Matthew:3:17 @ And lo! a voice from the heavens, saying, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."

noyes@Matthew:4:1 @ Then was Jesus led up by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the Devil.

noyes@Matthew:4:2 @ And when he had tasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward hungry.

noyes@Matthew:4:3 @ And the tempter came and said to him, If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become loaves of bread.

noyes@Matthew:4:4 @ But he answered and said, It is written, "Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God."

noyes@Matthew:4:5 @ Then the Devil taketh him into the holy city, and setteth him on the pinnacle of the temple;

noyes@Matthew:4:6 @ and saith to him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down; for it is written, "He will give his angels charge concerning thee; and in their hands they will bear thee up, that thou mayst not dash thy foot against a stone."

noyes@Matthew:4:7 @ Jesus said to him, Again it is written, "Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God."

noyes@Matthew:4:8 @ Again, the Devil taketh him m an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;

noyes@Matthew:4:9 @ and said to him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

noyes@Matthew:4:10 @ Then saith Jesus to him, Be gone, Satan! for it is written, "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

noyes@Matthew:4:11 @ Then the Devil leaveth him; and lo! angels came and ministered to him.

noyes@Matthew:4:12 @ Now when Jesus heard that John had been cast into prison, he withdrew into Galilee.

noyes@Matthew:4:13 @ And leaving Nazara, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, on the shore of the lake, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali;

noyes@Matthew:4:14 @ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

noyes@Matthew:4:15 @ "The land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali, by the way of the lake beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,

noyes@Matthew:4:16 @ the people that sat in darkness, saw a great light; and upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death, light arose."

noyes@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

noyes@Matthew:4:18 @ And while walking by the lake of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the lake; for they were fishers.

noyes@Matthew:4:19 @ And he saith to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

noyes@Matthew:4:20 @ And they immediately left their nets, and followed him.

noyes@Matthew:4:21 @ And going on from thence, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

noyes@Matthew:4:22 @ And they immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.

noyes@Matthew:4:23 @ And he went round the whole of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

noyes@Matthew:4:24 @ And his fame went forth into all Syria; and they brought to him all that were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were possessed by demons, and lunatics, and those who were struck with palsy; and he healed them.

noyes@Matthew:4:25 @ And great multitudes followed him from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea, and from beyond the Jordan.

noyes@Matthew:5:1 @ And seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain; and when he had sat down, his disciples came to him.

noyes@Matthew:5:2 @ And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying:––

noyes@Matthew:5:3 @ Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

noyes@Matthew:5:4 @

noyes@Matthew:5:5 @

noyes@Matthew:5:6 @ Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they will be filled.

noyes@Matthew:5:7 @ Blessed are the merciful; for they will obtain mercy.

noyes@Matthew:5:8 @ Blessed are the pure in heart; for they will see God.

noyes@Matthew:5:9 @ Blessed are the peace–makers; for they will be called sons of God.

noyes@Matthew:5:10 @ Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

noyes@Matthew:5:11 @ Blessed are ye, when men revile you, and persecute you, and say every thing that is bad against you, falsely, for my sake.

noyes@Matthew:5:12 @ Rejoice, and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in heaven; for so did they persecute the prophets that were before you.

noyes@Matthew:5:13 @ Ye are the salt of the earth. But if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall itself be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot by men.

noyes@Matthew:5:14 @ Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid;

noyes@Matthew:5:15 @ nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the lamp–stand; and it giveth light to all that are in the house.

noyes@Matthew:5:16 @ In like manner let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

noyes@Matthew:5:17 @ Think not that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill.

noyes@Matthew:5:18 @ For truly do I say to you, Not till heaven and earth pass away, shall one jot or one tittle pass from the Law, till all be fulfilled.

noyes@Matthew:5:19 @ Whoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

noyes@Matthew:5:20 @ For I say to you, Unless your righteousness shall exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye will not enter the kingdom of heaven.

noyes@Matthew:5:21 @ Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, "Thou shalt not kill; and whoever shall kill, shall be in danger of the Judges."

noyes@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you, that whoever is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the Judges; and whoever shall say to his brother, Simpleton! shall be in danger of the Council; and whoever shall say, Fool! shall be in danger of hell–fire.

noyes@Matthew:5:23 @ Therefore, if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there remember that thy brother hath aught against thee,

noyes@Matthew:5:24 @ leave there thy gift before the altar, and go away; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

noyes@Matthew:5:25 @ Agree with thine adversary at law quickly, while thou art on the road with him; lest the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

noyes@Matthew:5:26 @ Truly do I say to thee, Thou wilt not come out thence, till thou hast paid the last farthing.

noyes@Matthew:5:27 @ Ye have heard that it was said, "Thou shalt not commit adultery."

noyes@Matthew:5:28 @ But I say to you, that whoever looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

noyes@Matthew:5:29 @ And if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

noyes@Matthew:5:30 @ And if thy right hand cause thee to offend, cut it off, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should go away into hell.

noyes@Matthew:5:31 @ And it was said, "Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement."

noyes@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you, that whoever putteth away his wife, unless it be on account of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery; and whoever shall marry her when put away, committeth adultery.

noyes@Matthew:5:33 @ Again ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, "Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform to the Lord thine oaths."

noyes@Matthew:5:34 @ But I say to you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;

noyes@Matthew:5:35 @ nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King;

noyes@Matthew:5:36 @ nor shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.

noyes@Matthew:5:37 @ But let your language be, Yea, yea; Nay; nay; for whatever is more than these cometh of evil.

noyes@Matthew:5:38 @ Ye have heard that it was said, "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth."

noyes@Matthew:5:39 @ But I say to you, that ye resist not the evil–doer; but whoever smiteth thee on the right cheek, turn to him the other also;

noyes@Matthew:5:40 @ and if any one intends to sue thee at the law, and take thy coat, give up to him thy cloak also;

noyes@Matthew:5:41 @ and whoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.

noyes@Matthew:5:42 @ Give to him that asketh of thee; and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not away.

noyes@Matthew:5:43 @ Ye have heard that it was said, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy."

noyes@Matthew:5:44 @ But I say to you, Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you;

noyes@Matthew:5:45 @ that ye may become sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

noyes@Matthew:5:46 @ For if ye love those who love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?

noyes@Matthew:5:47 @ And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye that excelleth? Do not even the heathen the same?

noyes@Matthew:5:48 @ Be ye therefore perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

noyes@Matthew:6:1 @ But take heed that ye do not your righteousness before men, to be seen by them; otherwise ye have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.

noyes@Matthew:6:2 @ Therefore when thou doest alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Truly do I say to you, They have received their reward.

noyes@Matthew:6:3 @ But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth;

noyes@Matthew:6:4 @ that thine alms may be in secret; and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

noyes@Matthew:6:5 @ And when ye pray, ye shall not be as the hypocrites are; for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Truly do I say to you, They have received their reward.

noyes@Matthew:6:6 @ But do thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and, when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

noyes@Matthew:6:7 @ But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do; for they think that they shall be heard for the multitude of their words.

noyes@Matthew:6:8 @ Be not ye therefore like them; for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

noyes@Matthew:6:9 @ After this manner therefore pray ye:––Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name;

noyes@Matthew:6:10 @ thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven;

noyes@Matthew:6:11 @ give us this day our daily bread;

noyes@Matthew:6:12 @ and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors;

noyes@Matthew:6:13 @ and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

noyes@Matthew:6:14 @ For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you;

noyes@Matthew:6:15 @ but if ye do not forgive men, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

noyes@Matthew:6:16 @ Moreover, when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance; for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear to men to be fasting. Truly do I say to you, They have received their reward.

noyes@Matthew:6:17 @ But do thou, when thou fastest, anoint thy head, and wash thy face;

noyes@Matthew:6:18 @ that thou appear not to men to be fasting, but to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

noyes@Matthew:6:19 @ Lay not up for yourselves treasures on earth, where the moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;

noyes@Matthew:6:20 @ but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumeth, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.

noyes@Matthew:6:21 @ For where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also.

noyes@Matthew:6:22 @ The eye is the lamp of the body. If thine eye he clear, thy whole body will be in light;

noyes@Matthew:6:23 @ but if thine eye be disordered, thy whole body will be in darkness. If then the light that is within thee is darkness, how great that darkness!

noyes@Matthew:6:24 @ No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate one, and love the other; or else he will cleave to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

noyes@Matthew:6:25 @ Therefore I say to you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than food, and the body than raiment?

noyes@Matthew:6:26 @ Behold the birds of the air, that they sow not, nor reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much greater value than they?

noyes@Matthew:6:27 @ But who of you by anxious thought can add to his life one cubit?

noyes@Matthew:6:28 @ And why are ye anxious about raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They toil not, neither do they spin;

noyes@Matthew:6:29 @ and yet I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed like one of these.

noyes@Matthew:6:30 @ And if God so clothes the herbage of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into an oven, will he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

noyes@Matthew:6:31 @ Therefore be not anxious, saying, What shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or wherewith shall we he clothed?

noyes@Matthew:6:32 @ For after all these things do the gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

noyes@Matthew:6:33 @ But seek first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will also be given you.

noyes@Matthew:6:34 @ Be not then anxious about the morrow; for the morrow will be anxious about itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.

noyes@Matthew:7:1 @ Judge not, that ye be not judged.

noyes@Matthew:7:2 @ For with what judgment ye judge, ye will be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it will be measured to you.

noyes@Matthew:7:3 @ And why dost thou look at the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, and not perceive the beam in thine own eye?

noyes@Matthew:7:4 @ Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me take the mote out of thine eye; when, lo! the beam is in thine own eye?

noyes@Matthew:7:5 @ Hypocrite! first cast the beam out of thine own eye; and then wilt thou see clearly to take the mote out of thy brother’s eye.

noyes@Matthew:7:6 @ Give not that which is holy to dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine; lest they trample them under their feet, and turn upon you and rend you.

noyes@Matthew:7:7 @ Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and ye will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

noyes@Matthew:7:8 @ For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, the door will be opened.

noyes@Matthew:7:9 @ Or what man is there of you, who, if his son ask for bread, will give him a stone?

noyes@Matthew:7:10 @ or, if he ask for a fish, will give him a serpent?

noyes@Matthew:7:11 @ If ye then, though evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him!

noyes@Matthew:7:12 @ All things, then, whatever ye would that men should do to you, do ye also so to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.

noyes@Matthew:7:13 @ Enter in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction; and many are they who go in thereat.

noyes@Matthew:7:14 @ For strait is the gate, and narrow the way, that leadeth to life; and few are they who find it.

noyes@Matthew:7:15 @ Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.

noyes@Matthew:7:16 @ Ye may know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

noyes@Matthew:7:17 @ So every good tree beareth good fruit; but a bad tree beareth bad fruit.

noyes@Matthew:7:18 @ A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor call a bad tree bear good fruit.

noyes@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that beareth not good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.

noyes@Matthew:7:20 @ So then ye may know them by their fruits.

noyes@Matthew:7:21 @ Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.

noyes@Matthew:7:22 @ Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in thy name, and in thy name cast out demons, and in thy name work many miracles?

noyes@Matthew:7:23 @ And then will I declare to them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

noyes@Matthew:7:24 @ Every one then that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened to a wise man, who built his house upon a rock;

noyes@Matthew:7:25 @ and the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock.

noyes@Matthew:7:26 @ And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;

noyes@Matthew:7:27 @ and the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell; and great was its fall.

noyes@Matthew:7:28 @ And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the multitudes were astonished at his teaching.

noyes@Matthew:7:29 @ For he taught them as having authority, and not as their scribes.

noyes@Matthew:8:1 @ When he had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

noyes@Matthew:8:2 @ And lo! there came a leper and bowed down before him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.

noyes@Matthew:8:3 @ And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

noyes@Matthew:8:4 @ And Jesus saith to him, See thou tell no one; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

noyes@Matthew:8:5 @ And when he had entered into Capernaum, there came to him a centurion, beseeching him,

noyes@Matthew:8:6 @ and saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home palsied, sorely tormented.

noyes@Matthew:8:7 @ He saith to him, I will come and heal him.

noyes@Matthew:19:8 @ He saith to them, Moses, on account of your hardness of heart, allowed you m put away your wives; but in the beginning it was not so.

noyes@Matthew:19:17 @ And he said to him, Why dost thou ask me concerning what is good? There is but one who is good. But if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

noyes@Matthew:20:15 @ Am I not free to do what I will with my own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?

noyes@Matthew:24:23 @ Then if any one say to you, Lo! here is the Christ; or there, believe him not.

noyes@Matthew:24:24 @ For there will rise up false Christs, and false prophets, and will show great signs and wonders, so that, if possible, even the chosen will be deceived.

noyes@Matthew:24:25 @ Lo! I have told you beforehand.

noyes@Matthew:24:26 @ If therefore they say to you, Lo! he is in the wilderness; go not forth; lo! he is in the private chambers; believe them not.

noyes@Matthew:24:51 @ and will cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites; there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

noyes@Matthew:25:1 @ Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.

noyes@Matthew:25:2 @ And five of them were foolish, and five wise.

noyes@Matthew:25:3 @ For the foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them.

noyes@Matthew:25:16 @ He that had received the five talents went immediately and traded with the same, and gained five talents more.

noyes@Matthew:26:1 @ And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, that he said to his disciples,

noyes@Matthew:26:2 @ Ye know that after two days cometh the passover; and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified.

noyes@Matthew:26:3 @ Then the chief priests and the elders of the people assembled in the court of the palace of the high–priest, named Caiaphas;

noyes@Matthew:26:6 @ Now when Jesus was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

noyes@Matthew:26:7 @ there came to him a woman having an alabaster bottle of very costly ointment, and poured it on his head while he was reclining at table.

noyes@Matthew:26:8 @ But the disciples seeing it, were much displeased, saying, To what purpose is this waste?.

noyes@Matthew:26:9 @ For this might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

noyes@Matthew:26:10 @ And Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, Why do ye trouble the woman? For she hath done a good deed to me.

noyes@Matthew:26:11 @ For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.

noyes@Matthew:26:12 @ For she, in pouring this ointment on my body, hath done it to prepare me for burial.

noyes@Matthew:26:13 @ Truly do I say to you, Wherever these glad tidings shall be published in the whole world, this too which she hath done will be told for a memorial of her.

noyes@Matthew:26:14 @ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests,

noyes@Matthew:26:15 @ and said, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him up to you? And they paid him thirty pieces of silver.

noyes@Matthew:26:16 @ And from that time he sought an opportunity to deliver him up.

noyes@Matthew:26:17 @ And on the first of the days of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt thou that we make ready for thee to eat the passover?

noyes@Matthew:26:18 @ And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say to him, The Teacher saith, My time is at hand; I keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.

noyes@Matthew:26:19 @ And the disciples did as Jesus directed them, and made ready the passover.

noyes@Matthew:26:20 @ And when evening came, he took his place at table with the twelve disciples.

noyes@Matthew:26:21 @ And as they were eating, he said, Truly do I say to you, that one of you will betray me.

noyes@Matthew:26:22 @ And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and began every one to say to him, Is it I, Lord?

noyes@Matthew:26:23 @ And he answering said, He that hath dipped his hand with me in the dish, he will betray me.

noyes@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of man indeed goeth away, as it hath been written concerning him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! Well were it for that man if he had not been born.

noyes@Matthew:26:25 @ Then Judas, his betrayer, answering said, Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him, It is.

noyes@Matthew:26:26 @ And, as they were eating, Jesus took a loaf, and having blessed, broke it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

noyes@Matthew:26:27 @ And he took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

noyes@Matthew:26:28 @ for this is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many for remission of sins.

noyes@Matthew:26:29 @ And I say to you, I shall not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father.

noyes@Matthew:26:30 @ And having sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

noyes@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus saith to them, This night will all of you fall away from me; for it is written, "I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered."

noyes@Matthew:26:32 @ But after I have risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

noyes@Matthew:26:33 @ Peter answering said to him, Though all should fall away from thee, yet will I never fall away.

noyes@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said to him, Truly do I say to thee, that this night, before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me.

noyes@Matthew:26:35 @ Peter saith to him, Even if I must die with thee, I will not deny thee. And so said all the disciples.

noyes@Matthew:26:36 @ Then Jesus cometh with them to a place called Gethsemane, and saith to the disciples, Sit here, while I go yonder and pray.

noyes@Matthew:26:37 @ And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to he sorrowful and full of anguish.

noyes@Matthew:26:38 @ Then he saith to them, My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch with me.

noyes@Matthew:26:39 @ And he came a little nearer, and fell on his face, praying and saying, Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me! nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou wilt.

noyes@Matthew:26:40 @ And he cometh to the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and saith to Peter, Is it so that ye could not watch with me one hour?

noyes@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch, and pray that ye enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

noyes@Matthew:26:42 @ Again he went away a second time, and prayed, saying, My Father, if this cannot pass away from me, but I must drink it, thy will be done!

noyes@Matthew:26:43 @ And coming again he found them sleeping; for their eyes were heavy.

noyes@Matthew:26:44 @ And leaving them, he went away again, and prayed the third time, saying again the same words.

noyes@Matthew:26:45 @ Then he cometh to the disciples, and saith to them, Sleep on, and take your rest! Lo! the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.

noyes@Matthew:26:46 @ Rise, let us be going; lo! he is at hand that delivereth me up.

noyes@Matthew:26:47 @ And while he was yet speaking, lo! Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and elders of the people.

noyes@Matthew:26:48 @ And his betrayer had given them a sign, saying, Whomever I shall kiss, he is the man; seize him.

noyes@Matthew:26:49 @ And immediately going up to Jesus, he said, Hail, Rabbi! and kissed him.

noyes@Matthew:26:50 @ And Jesus said to him, Friend, for what hast thou come! Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and seized him.

noyes@Matthew:26:51 @ And, lo! one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high–priest, and cut off his ear.

noyes@Matthew:26:52 @ Then Jesus saith to him, Put back thy sword into its place; for all they that take the sword will perish by the sword.

noyes@Matthew:26:53 @ Dost thou think that I cannot pray to my Father, and he will now give me more than twelve legions of angels?

noyes@Matthew:26:54 @ But how then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

noyes@Matthew:26:55 @ In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take me; I sat daily teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hands on me.

noyes@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this hath been done, that the Scriptures of the prophets may be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

noyes@Matthew:26:57 @ And they who seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high–priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

noyes@Matthew:26:58 @ But Peter followed him at a distance, as far as to the court of the high–priest’s palace, and went in, and sat with the officers to see the end.

noyes@Matthew:26:59 @ And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;

noyes@Matthew:26:60 @ and they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. But at last came two,

noyes@Matthew:26:61 @ and said, This man affirmed, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it within three days.

noyes@Matthew:26:62 @ And the high–priest arose, and said to him, Dost thou make no answer to what these men testify against thee?

noyes@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus was silent. And the high–priest answering said to him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God.

noyes@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus saith to him, I am. Moreover I say to you, Henceforth ye will see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

noyes@Matthew:26:65 @ Then the high–priest rent his garments, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? See! ye have now heard the blasphemy.

noyes@Matthew:26:66 @ What think ye? They answered and said, He should be punished with death.

noyes@Matthew:26:67 @ Then they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and some smote him with the palms of their hands,

noyes@Matthew:26:68 @ saying, Prophesy to us, O Messiah! who it was that struck thee.

noyes@Matthew:26:69 @ Now Peter was sitting outside in the court. And a maid–servant came to him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.

noyes@Matthew:26:70 @ But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.

noyes@Matthew:26:71 @ And when he had gone out into the porch, another woman saw him, and said to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.

noyes@Matthew:26:72 @ And again he denied with an oath; I do not know the man.

noyes@Matthew:26:73 @ And shortly after, they who were standing by came and said to Peter, Surely thou too art one of them; for thy speech betrayeth thee.

noyes@Matthew:26:74 @ Then he began to curse and to swear, saying, I do not know the man. And immediately a cock crew.

noyes@Matthew:26:75 @ And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said, Before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

noyes@Matthew:27:1 @ And when it was morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people consulted together against Jesus, to put him to death.

noyes@Matthew:27:2 @ And having bound him, they led him away, and delivered him up to Pilate the governor.

noyes@Matthew:27:3 @ Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

noyes@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, I sinned in betraying innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? See thou to it.

noyes@Matthew:27:5 @ And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and withdrew; and went away and hanged himself.

noyes@Matthew:27:6 @ And the chief priests took the pieces of silver, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since they are the price of blood.

noyes@Matthew:27:7 @ And they consulted together, and bought with them the potter’s field, for a burial–place for strangers.

noyes@Matthew:27:8 @ Wherefore that field hath been called, The Field of Blood, unto this day.

noyes@Matthew:27:9 @ Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was priced, whom they of the sons of Israel priced,

noyes@Matthew:27:10 @ and gave them for the potter’s field; as the Lord commanded me."

noyes@Matthew:27:11 @ And Jesus stood before the governor; and the governor questioned him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews? And Jesus said, I am.

noyes@Matthew:27:12 @ And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he made no answer.

noyes@Matthew:27:13 @ Then saith Pilate to him, Dost thou not hear what things they are testifying against thee?

noyes@Matthew:27:14 @ And he made him no answer, not even to one word; so that the governor greatly wondered.

noyes@Matthew:27:15 @ Now at the feast the governor was wont to release to the multitude one prisoner, whom they would.

noyes@Matthew:27:16 @ And they had then a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas.

noyes@Matthew:27:17 @ When therefore they were assembled, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?

noyes@Matthew:27:18 @ For he knew that for envy they had delivered him up.

noyes@Matthew:27:19 @ And while he was sitting on the judgment–seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that righteous man; for I have suffered much this day in a dream because of him.

noyes@Matthew:27:20 @ But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas, and to destroy Jesus.

noyes@Matthew:27:21 @ And the governor answering said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release to you? And they said, Barabbas.

noyes@Matthew:27:22 @ Pilate saith to them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified.

noyes@Matthew:27:23 @ And he said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

noyes@Matthew:27:24 @ And when Pilate saw that it availed nothing, but that rather a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of this blood; see ye to it.

noyes@Matthew:27:25 @ And all the people answering said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

noyes@Matthew:27:26 @ Then he released Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him up to be crucified.

noyes@Matthew:27:27 @ Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor’s palace, and gathered to him the whole band.

noyes@Matthew:27:28 @ And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

noyes@Matthew:27:29 @ And having platted a crown of thorns, they put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews!

noyes@Matthew:27:30 @ And they spit upon him, and took the reed and struck him on the head.

noyes@Matthew:27:31 @ And after they had made sport of him, they took off the robe from him, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify him.

noyes@Matthew:27:32 @ And as they were going out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, whom they compelled to carry his cross.

noyes@Matthew:27:33 @ And having come to a place called Golgotha, that is, Place of a Skull,

noyes@Matthew:27:34 @ they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall; and when he had tasted it, he refused to drink.

noyes@Matthew:27:35 @ And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them, casting lots.

noyes@Matthew:27:36 @ And sitting down, they watched him there.

noyes@Matthew:27:37 @ And they set up over his head the charge against him in writing: "This is Jesus the king of the Jews."

noyes@Matthew:27:38 @ Then are crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on the left.

noyes@Matthew:27:39 @ And they who passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

noyes@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it up in three days, save thyself, if thou art the Son of God, and come down from the cross.

noyes@Matthew:27:41 @ So also the chief priests, mocking, with the scribes and elders, said,

noyes@Matthew:27:42 @ He saved others, cannot he save himself? He is the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in him.

noyes@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusteth in God; let him now deliver him, if he desireth him; for he said, I am the Son of God.

noyes@Matthew:27:44 @ The robbers also, who were crucified with him, reviled him in the same manner.

noyes@Matthew:27:45 @ And from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land, until the ninth hour.

noyes@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

noyes@Matthew:27:47 @ Some of those standing there, when they heard this, said, This man is calling for Elijah.

noyes@Matthew:27:48 @ And one of them immediately ran and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink.

noyes@Matthew:27:49 @ But the rest said, Hold! let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.

noyes@Matthew:27:50 @ And Jesus, crying out again with a loud voice, yielded up his spirit.

noyes@Matthew:27:51 @ And, lo! the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth, quaked, and the rocks were rent,

noyes@Matthew:27:52 @ and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of holy men that slept, arose,

noyes@Matthew:27:53 @ and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection went into the holy city and appeared to many.

noyes@Matthew:27:54 @ And the centurion and they who with him were watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and what was taking place, were exceedingly afraid, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

noyes@Matthew:27:55 @ And many women were there, looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, rendering services to him;

noyes@Matthew:27:56 @ among whom was Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

noyes@Matthew:27:57 @ And at evening there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who was himself also a disciple of Jesus.

noyes@Matthew:27:58 @ This man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given him.

noyes@Matthew:27:59 @ And Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

noyes@Matthew:27:62 @ And on the next day, that following the day of the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,

noyes@Matthew:27:63 @ saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I rise.

noyes@Matthew:27:64 @ Command therefore that the sepulchre be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people, He hath risen from the dead; and the last error will be worse than the first.

noyes@Matthew:27:65 @ Pilate said to them, Ye have a guard; go, make it as secure as ye know how.

noyes@Matthew:27:66 @ And they went, and made the sepulchre secure, sealing the stone, and setting the guard.

noyes@Matthew:28:1 @ And the sabbath being over, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to view the sepulchre.

noyes@Matthew:28:2 @ And, lo! there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled away the stone, and sat upon it.

noyes@Matthew:28:3 @ His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow.

noyes@Matthew:28:4 @ And for fear of him the keepers shook, and became as dead men.

noyes@Matthew:28:5 @ And the angel answering said to the women, Fear ye not; for I know that ye are seeking Jesus, who was crucified.

noyes@Matthew:28:6 @ He is not here; for he hath risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.

noyes@Matthew:28:7 @ And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he hath risen from the dead, and, lo! he is going before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him. Lo! I have told you.

noyes@Matthew:28:8 @ And they went away quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.

noyes@Matthew:28:9 @ And lo! Jesus met them, saying, All hail! And they went up, and laid hold of his feet, and knelt down before him.

noyes@Matthew:28:10 @ Then Jesus saith to them, Be not afraid; go, tell my brethren to depart into Galilee, and there they shall see me.

noyes@Matthew:28:11 @ And as they were going, lo! some of the guard came into the city, and told the chief priests all that had taken place.

noyes@Matthew:28:12 @ And having assembled with the elders, and taken counsel together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,

noyes@Matthew:28:13 @ saying, Say, His disciples came by night, and stole him away, while we slept.

noyes@Matthew:28:14 @ And should the governor hear of this, we will persuade him, and make you secure.

noyes@Matthew:28:15 @ So they took the money, and did as they were taught. And this story hath been commonly reported among the Jews to this day.

noyes@Matthew:28:16 @ And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, into the mountain, where Jesus had directed them.

noyes@Matthew:28:17 @ And when they saw him, they knelt down before him; but some doubted.

noyes@Matthew:28:18 @ And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, All power was given to me in heaven and on earth.

noyes@Mark:1:5 @ And there went out to him all the country of Judaea, and all they of Jerusalem and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

noyes@Mark:1:6 @ And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a leathern girdle about his loins, and he ate locusts and wild honey.

noyes@Mark:1:7 @ And he preached, saying, There cometh after me one mightier than I, the latchet of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.

noyes@Mark:1:8 @ I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.

noyes@Mark:1:9 @ And it came to pass that in those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

noyes@Mark:1:16 @ And as he was passing along by the lake of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon dragging a net in the lake; for they were fishers.

noyes@Mark:1:17 @ And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will cause you to become fishers of men.

noyes@Mark:1:18 @ And immediately they left their nets, and followed him.

noyes@Mark:1:19 @ And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending the nets;

noyes@Mark:1:21 @ And they enter Capernaum; and immediately on the sabbath he was teaching in the synagogue.

noyes@Mark:1:22 @ And they were astonished at his teaching; for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.

noyes@Mark:1:23 @ And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,

noyes@Mark:1:24 @ saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Thou hast come to destroy us; we know who thou art, the Holy One of God.

noyes@Mark:1:25 @ And Jesus rebuked him, Be silent, and come out of him.

noyes@Mark:1:27 @ And they were all amazed, so that they questioned each other, saying, What is this? New teaching with authority; even the unclean spirits doth he command, and they obey him!

noyes@Mark:1:28 @ And immediately his fame spread abroad everywhere through the whole surrounding country of Galilee.

noyes@Mark:1:29 @ And having come out of the synagogue, they immediately entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

noyes@Mark:1:30 @ And Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever; and they immediately speak to him about her.

noyes@Mark:1:33 @ and the whole city was assembled at the door.

noyes@Mark:1:34 @ And he healed many that were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he suffered not the demons to speak, because they knew him.

noyes@Mark:1:35 @ And rising early, long before day, he went out, and withdrew into a desert place, and there prayed.

noyes@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those with him went in search of him,

noyes@Mark:1:37 @ and found him. And they say to him, All people are in search of thee.

noyes@Mark:1:38 @ And he saith to them, Let us go elsewhere into the neighboring towns, that I may preach there also; for, for this I came forth.

noyes@Mark:1:45 @ But he went away, and began to publish it constantly, and to spread the matter abroad, so that Jesus could no more enter a city openly, but was without in desert places; and they came to him from every quarter.

noyes@Mark:2:1 @ And after some days he again entered Capernaum; and it was reported that he was in the house.

noyes@Mark:2:2 @ And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room for them, even at the door; and he was speaking the word to them.

noyes@Mark:2:3 @ And they come to him, bringing one that was palsied, borne by four men.

noyes@Mark:2:4 @ And not being able to bring him to him on account of the crowd, they took off the roof where he was; and when they had broken an opening, they let down the bed whereon the palsied man lay.

noyes@Mark:2:5 @ And Jesus seeing their faith, saith to the palsied man, Son, thy sins are forgiven.

noyes@Mark:2:6 @ But there were some of the scribes sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,

noyes@Mark:2:7 @ Why doth this man speak thus? He blasphemeth; who can forgive sins but God only?

noyes@Mark:2:11 @ I say to thee, Arise, take up thy bed and go to thy house.

noyes@Mark:2:12 @ And he arose, and immediately took up the bed and went forth before them all; so that they were all amazed, and gave glory to God, saying, We never saw it thus.

noyes@Mark:2:13 @ And he went forth again to the lake; and all the multitude came to him, and he taught them.

noyes@Mark:2:14 @ And passing along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the custom–house; and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

noyes@Mark:2:15 @ And it happened that he was reclining at table in his house; and many publicans and sinners were reclining with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many, and scribes of the Pharisees were also following him.

noyes@Mark:2:16 @ And when they saw that he was eating with the publicans and sinners, they said to his disciples, Doth he eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

noyes@Mark:2:17 @ And Jesus hearing it, saith to them, They who are well do not need a physician, but they who are sick. I came not to call righteous men, but sinners.

noyes@Mark:2:18 @ And the disciples of John and the Pharisees were fasting; and they come and say to him, Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples fast not?

noyes@Mark:2:19 @ And Jesus said to them, Can the companions of the bridegroom fast, while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

noyes@Mark:2:20 @ But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then will they fast in that day.

noyes@Mark:2:21 @ No one seweth a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment; for the new piece teareth away from the old garment, and a worse rent is made.

noyes@Mark:2:22 @ And no one putteth new wine into old skins; for the new wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost, and the skins.

noyes@Mark:2:23 @ And it came to pass, that he was going through the grain–fields on the sabbath, and his disciples began, as they went along, to pluck the ears of grain.

noyes@Mark:2:24 @ And the Pharisees said to him, See, why are they doing on the sabbath that which is not lawful?

noyes@Mark:2:25 @ And he saith to them, Did ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was hungry, himself and they who were with him?

noyes@Mark:2:26 @ how he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high–priest, and ate the show–bread, which it is lawful for none but the priests to eat, and gave also to those who were with him?

noyes@Mark:2:27 @ And he said to them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath.

noyes@Mark:2:28 @ So that the Son of man is lord even of the sabbath.

noyes@Mark:3:1 @ And he entered again into a synagogue; and there was a man there having a withered hand;

noyes@Mark:3:2 @ and they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath, that they might accuse him.

noyes@Mark:3:3 @ And he saith to the man having the withered hand, Stand up in the midst.

noyes@Mark:3:4 @ And he saith to them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they were silent.

noyes@Mark:3:5 @ And looking round on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth; and his hand was restored.

noyes@Mark:3:6 @ And the Pharisees went forth, and immediately had a consultation with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

noyes@Mark:3:7 @ And Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake; and a great multitude from Galilee, and from Judaea followed;

noyes@Mark:3:8 @ and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond the Jordan, and the people about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard what great things he was doing, came to him.

noyes@Mark:3:9 @ And he gave direction to his disciples, that a boat should be in readiness for him because of the multitude, that they might not throng him.

noyes@Mark:3:10 @ For he had healed many, so that as many as had plagues pressed upon him to touch him.

noyes@Mark:3:11 @ And the unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried out, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

noyes@Mark:3:12 @ And he strictly charged them that they should not make him known.

noyes@Mark:3:13 @ And he goeth up into the mountain, and calleth to him whom he would; and they came to him.

noyes@Mark:3:14 @ And he appointed twelve to be with him, and whom he might send forth to preach,

noyes@Mark:3:15 @ and to have authority to cast out demons. And he appointed the twelve,

noyes@Mark:3:16 @ and Simon he surnamed Peter;

noyes@Mark:3:17 @ and James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, that is, Sons of thunder;

noyes@Mark:3:18 @ and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon of Cana,

noyes@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. And he cometh into the house.

noyes@Mark:3:20 @ And again a multitude cometh together, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

noyes@Mark:3:21 @ And his relations hearing of it went out to lay hold of him; for they said, He is beside himself.

noyes@Mark:3:22 @ And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebul; and, He casteth out the demons through the prince of the demons.

noyes@Mark:3:23 @ And calling them to him, he said to them in parables: How can Satan cast out Satan?

noyes@Mark:3:24 @ And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand;

noyes@Mark:3:25 @ and if a house be divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand;

noyes@Mark:3:26 @ and if Satan rise up against himself, he is divided, and cannot stand, but hath an end.

noyes@Mark:3:27 @ Moreover, no one can enter into a strong man’s house, and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man; and then he will plunder his house.

noyes@Mark:3:28 @ Truly do I say to you, All sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and the blasphemies wherewith they shall blaspheme;

noyes@Mark:3:29 @ but he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit hath no forgiveness forever, but is exposed to everlasting sin.––

noyes@Mark:3:30 @ Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.

noyes@Mark:3:31 @ And his mother and his brothers came; and, standing without, sent to him, to call him.

noyes@Mark:3:32 @ And a multitude was sitting about him; and they say to him, Lo! thy mother and thy brothers and thy sisters are without, seeking for thee.

noyes@Mark:3:33 @ And he answering saith to them, Who is my mother, and my brothers?

noyes@Mark:3:34 @ And looking round on those who sat about him, he saith, Behold my mother and my brothers.

noyes@Mark:3:35 @ Whoever shall do the will of God, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.

noyes@Mark:4:1 @ And again he began to teach by the shore of the lake; and there was gathered to him a very great multitude, so that he went into a boat, and sat down in it upon the lake; and all the multitude was by the lake on the land.

noyes@Mark:4:2 @ And he taught them many things in parables, and said to them in his teaching,

noyes@Mark:4:3 @ Hearken: Behold, a sower went forth to sow.

noyes@Mark:4:4 @ And it came to pass, as he sowed some seeds fell by the way–side; and the birds came and devoured them.

noyes@Mark:4:5 @ And others fell on rocky ground, where they had not much earth; and they sprung up immediately, because they had no depth of earth.

noyes@Mark:4:6 @ But when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

noyes@Mark:4:7 @ And others fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up, and choked them, and they yielded no fruit.

noyes@Mark:4:8 @ And others fell on good ground, and shooting up and growing yielded fruit; and bore as much as thirty, and sixty, and a hundred fold.

noyes@Mark:4:9 @ And he said, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

noyes@Mark:4:10 @ And when he was in private, they who were about him, with the twelve, asked him about the parables.

noyes@Mark:4:11 @ And he said to them, To you hath been given the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to them, who are without, all things are done in parables; t

noyes@Mark:4:12 @ hat seeing they may see, and not perceive, and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest they should turn, and be forgiven.

noyes@Mark:4:13 @ And he saith to them, Know ye not this parable? and how will ye know all the parables?

noyes@Mark:4:14 @ The sower soweth the word.

noyes@Mark:4:15 @ And these are they by the wayside, those where the word is sown, and when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in them.

noyes@Mark:4:16 @ And these in like manner are they that are sown on the rocky places, those, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy,

noyes@Mark:4:17 @ and have no root in themselves, but endure only for a time; then, when affliction or persecution ariseth on account of the word, they immediately fall away.

noyes@Mark:4:18 @ And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they who hear the word,

noyes@Mark:4:19 @ but the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

noyes@Mark:4:20 @ And these are they who are sown on the good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it; and bear fruit, thirty, sixty, and a hundred fold.

noyes@Mark:4:21 @ And he said to them, Is a lamp brought to be put under the bushel, or under the bed, and not to be set on the lamp–stand?

noyes@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing secret, unless to be made known; nor was any thing hidden, but that it should come to light.

noyes@Mark:4:23 @ If any one hath ears to hear, let him hear.

noyes@Mark:4:24 @ And he said to them, Take heed what ye hear. With what measure ye mete, it will be measured to you, and more will be added to you.

noyes@Mark:4:25 @ For he that hath, to him will be given; and he that hath not, from him will be taken away even what he hath.

noyes@Mark:4:26 @ And he said, Thus is the kingdom of God, as when a man has cast seed upon the ground,

noyes@Mark:4:27 @ and sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed springs and grows up, he knows not how.

noyes@Mark:4:28 @ For the earth brings forth fruit of itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

noyes@Mark:4:29 @ But when the fruit puts itself forth, immediately he sends out the sickle, because the harvest is come.

noyes@Mark:4:30 @ And he said, To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? or under what comparison shall we set it forth?

noyes@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a grain of mustard, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth;

noyes@Mark:4:32 @ and when it is sown, it grows up, and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air can lodge under its shade.

noyes@Mark:4:33 @ And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear.

noyes@Mark:4:34 @ But without a parable he did not speak to them; but in private he explained all things to his own disciples.

noyes@Mark:4:35 @ And on the same day, when the evening was come, he saith to them, Let us pass over to the other side.

noyes@Mark:4:36 @ And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, as he was, in the boat; and there were also other boats with him.

noyes@Mark:4:37 @ And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves heat into the boat, so that it was already filling.

noyes@Mark:4:38 @ And he was in the stern, asleep on the pillow; and they awake him, and say to him, Teacher, carest thou not that we are perishing?

noyes@Mark:4:39 @ And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, Peace! be still! And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

noyes@Mark:4:40 @ And he said to them, Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have not faith?

noyes@Mark:4:41 @ And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the waves obey him?

noyes@Mark:5:1 @ And they came to the other side of the lake, into the country of the Gerasenes.

noyes@Mark:5:2 @ And when he had come out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

noyes@Mark:5:3 @ who had his dwelling in the tombs; and not even with a chain could any one bind him any longer;

noyes@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been snapped asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces; and no one could master him;

noyes@Mark:5:5 @ and continually, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself, with stones.

noyes@Mark:5:6 @ And seeing Jesus afar off, he ran and bowed down before him,

noyes@Mark:5:7 @ and cried out with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, do not torment me.

noyes@Mark:5:8 @ For he was saying to him, Unclean spirit, come out from the man.

noyes@Mark:5:9 @ And he asked him, What is thy name? And he saith to him, Legion is my name; for we are many.

noyes@Mark:5:10 @ And he besought him much not to send them out of the country.

noyes@Mark:5:11 @ Now there was there, by the mountain, a great herd of swine feeding.

noyes@Mark:5:12 @ And they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

noyes@Mark:5:13 @ And he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits coming out, entered into the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, about two thousand, and were drowned in the lake.

noyes@Mark:5:14 @ And they that fed them fled, and told the news in the city and in the country. And they came to see what had been done.

noyes@Mark:5:15 @ And they come to Jesus, and see him who had been possessed by demons, sitting, clothed, and in his right mind,––him who had had the legion; and they were afraid.

noyes@Mark:5:16 @ And they who saw it told them how it befell him that was possessed by the demons, and concerning the swine.

noyes@Mark:5:17 @ And they began to beseech him to depart from their borders.

noyes@Mark:5:18 @ And when he was going on board the boat, he that had been possessed by the demons besought him that be might be with him.

noyes@Mark:5:19 @ And he did not permit him, but said to him, Go to thy house to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and that he hath had compassion on thee.

noyes@Mark:5:20 @ And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered.

noyes@Mark:5:21 @ And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the ether side, a great multitude gathered about him; and he was by the lake.

noyes@Mark:5:22 @ And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and seeing him, he fell at his feet,

noyes@Mark:5:23 @ and besought him much, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death; I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be saved and live.

noyes@Mark:5:24 @ And he went with him; and a great multitude followed him, and pressed upon him.

noyes@Mark:5:25 @ And a woman, who had had an issue of blood twelve years,

noyes@Mark:5:26 @ and had undergone much at the hands of many physicians, and spent all that she had, and was not at all benefited, but rather grew worse,

noyes@Mark:5:27 @ having heard about Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment.

noyes@Mark:5:28 @ For she said, If I touch even his garments, I shall be made well.

noyes@Mark:5:29 @ And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she perceived in her body that she was cured of her plague.

noyes@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus immediately perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, turned round in the crowed, and said, Who touched my garments?

noyes@Mark:5:31 @ And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the multitude pressing on thee, and dost thou say, Who touched me?

noyes@Mark:5:32 @ And he looked round to see her who had done this.

noyes@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

noyes@Mark:5:34 @ And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace, and be recovered from thy plague.

noyes@Mark:5:35 @ While he was yet speaking, there came from the house I of the ruler of the synagogue some who said, Thy daughter is dead; why dost thou trouble the Teacher any further?

noyes@Mark:5:36 @ And Jesus, overhearing those words, saith to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not; only believe.

noyes@Mark:5:37 @ And he suffered no one to follow him except Peter and James, and John the brother of James.

noyes@Mark:5:38 @ And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he seeth a tumult, and people weeping and wailing greatly.

noyes@Mark:5:39 @ And going in, he saith to them, Why do ye make this confusion and weeping? The child is not dead, but is sleeping.

noyes@Mark:5:40 @ And they laughed him to scorn. But putting them all out, he taketh the father of the child, and the mother, and those who were with him, and entereth where the child was.

noyes@Mark:5:41 @ And taking hold of the hand of the child, he saith to her, Talitha, kum; which is, when interpreted, Damsel, I say to thee, arise!

noyes@Mark:5:42 @ And immediately the damsel arose and walked; for she was twelve years old. And immediately they were greatly astonished.

noyes@Mark:5:43 @ And he charged them strictly that no one should know it, and bade that something should be given her to eat.

noyes@Mark:6:1 @ And he went out from thence, and cometh into his own country; and his disciples follow him.

noyes@Mark:6:2 @ And when the sabbath was come, he began to teach in the synagogue. And most people when they heard him were astonished, saying, Whence hath this man these things? And what is the wisdom which is given him? And how is it that such miracles are wrought by his hands?

noyes@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judah, and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us? And they took offence at him.

noyes@Mark:6:4 @ And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, and among his own kindred, and in his own house.

noyes@Mark:6:5 @ And he could not do any miracle there, except that he laid his hand upon a few sick persons, and cured them.

noyes@Mark:6:6 @ And he wondered at their want of faith. And he went about the surrounding villages teaching.

noyes@Mark:6:7 @ And he calleth to him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over the unclean spirits;

noyes@Mark:6:8 @ and commanded them that they should take nothing for the way but a staff only; no bread, no bag, no money in their girdle;

noyes@Mark:6:9 @ but to be shod with sandals; and, Do not put on two coats.

noyes@Mark:6:10 @ And he said to them, Wherever ye enter a house, there abide fill ye leave that place.

noyes@Mark:6:11 @ And whatever place shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye go thence, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony to them.

noyes@Mark:6:12 @ And they went out and preached that men should repent;

noyes@Mark:6:13 @ and they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many sick persons, and healed them.

noyes@Mark:6:14 @ And king Herod heard of him (for his name was spread abroad), and he said, John the Baptizer hath risen from the dead, and therefore do these powers work in him. But others said, It is Elijah.

noyes@Mark:6:15 @ And others said, It is a prophet, as one of the prophets.

noyes@Mark:6:16 @ But Herod hearing of it said, John, whom I beheaded, hath risen again.

noyes@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent forth and seized John, and bound him in prison, on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife; for he had married her.

noyes@Mark:6:18 @ For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother’s wife.

noyes@Mark:6:19 @ And Herodias was enraged against him, and wished to put him to death, but could not.

noyes@Mark:6:20 @ For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and was regardful of him; and on hearing him, was in much anxiety, and listened to him gladly.

noyes@Mark:6:21 @ And a convenient day having come, when Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles and chief captains and the principal men of Galilee,

noyes@Mark:6:22 @ and the daughter of Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those at table with him; and the king said to the damsel, Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.

noyes@Mark:6:23 @ And he swore to her, Whatever thou shalt ask of me, I will give thee, to the half of my kingdom.

noyes@Mark:6:24 @ And she went out and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptizer.

noyes@Mark:6:25 @ And she came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, saying, I desire that thou wilt give me immediately on a platter the head of John the Baptist.

noyes@Mark:6:26 @ And the king was exceedingly sorry; but on account of his oaths, and of those at table with him, he would not refuse her.

noyes@Mark:6:27 @ And the king immediately sent one of his guards, and ordered his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in the prison,

noyes@Mark:6:28 @ and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the damsel; and the damsel gave it to her mother.

noyes@Mark:6:29 @ And his disciples, when they heard of it, came and took up his body, and laid it in a tomb.

noyes@Mark:6:30 @ And the apostles gather together to Jesus, and told him all which they had done and taught.

noyes@Mark:6:31 @ And he saith to them, Come ye by yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while. For there were many coming and going; and they had no leisure, even to eat.

noyes@Mark:6:32 @ And they went away into a desert place in the boat apart.

noyes@Mark:6:33 @ And many saw them departing, and knew them, and ran together on foot thither from all the cities, and arrived before them.

noyes@Mark:6:34 @ And when he came forth, he saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion for them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.

noyes@Mark:6:35 @ And late in the day his disciples came to him, and said, This is a desert place, and it is now late;

noyes@Mark:6:36 @ send them away, that they may go into the surrounding fields and villages, and buy themselves something to eat.

noyes@Mark:6:37 @ But he answering said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they say to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denaries’ worth of bread, and give them to eat?

noyes@Mark:6:38 @ He saith to them, How many loaves have ye? Go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.

noyes@Mark:6:39 @ And he ordered them to make all lie down in companies upon the green grass.

noyes@Mark:6:40 @ And they lay down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.

noyes@Mark:6:41 @ And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven and blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples to set before them; and the two fishes he divided among them all.

noyes@Mark:6:42 @ And they all ate, and were filled.

noyes@Mark:6:43 @ And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.

noyes@Mark:6:44 @ And they who ate of the loaves were five thousand men.

noyes@Mark:6:45 @ And he immediately constrained his disciples to get into the boat, and to go before to the other side to Bethsaida, while he sent the multitude away.

noyes@Mark:6:46 @ And when he had taken leave of them, he went away into the mountain to pray.

noyes@Mark:6:47 @ And when evening came, the boat was in the midst of the lake; and he was alone on the land.

noyes@Mark:6:48 @ And when he saw them toiling hard in rowing, for the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he cometh to them, walking upon the lake. And he would have passed by them;

noyes@Mark:6:49 @ but they, seeing him walking upon the lake, thought it was a spectre, and cried out.

noyes@Mark:6:50 @ For they all saw him, and were terrified. But he immediately spoke with them, and saith to them, Be of good cheer; it is I, be not afraid.

noyes@Mark:6:51 @ And he went up to them into the boat, and the wind ceased. And they were exceedingly astonished, beyond measure.

noyes@Mark:6:52 @ For they did not consider the matter of the loaves; but their heart was hardened.

noyes@Mark:6:53 @ And crossing over, they came to land, to Gennesaret; and anchored there.

noyes@Mark:6:54 @ And when they had come out of the boat, the people immediately knowing who he was,

noyes@Mark:6:55 @ ran through all that region, and began to carry about on beds those that were sick to the place where they heard he was.

noyes@Mark:6:56 @ And wherever he entered into villages or cities or the open country, they laid the sick in the market–places, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.

noyes@Mark:7:1 @ And there come together to him the Pharisees, and some of the scribes, who came from Jerusalem;

noyes@Mark:7:2 @ and seeing some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed hands,

noyes@Mark:7:3 @ (for the Pharisees, and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands often, do not eat, holding fast the tradition of the elders;

noyes@Mark:7:4 @ and on coming from the marketplace, unless they bathe, they do not eat; and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the dipping of cups, and pitchers, and brazen vessels;)

noyes@Mark:7:5 @ then the Pharisees and scribes ask him, Why do not thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with defiled hands?

noyes@Mark:7:6 @ And he said to them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, "This people honoreth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

noyes@Mark:7:7 @ But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."

noyes@Mark:7:8 @ Laying aside, the commandment of God, ye hold fast the tradition of men.

noyes@Mark:7:9 @ And he said to them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition!

noyes@Mark:7:10 @ For Moses said, "Honor thy father and thy mother;" and, "He that curseth father or mother, let him surely die."

noyes@Mark:7:11 @ But ye say, If a man say to his father or mother, Whatever thou mightst receive in aid from me is Corban, that is, a gift to God,

noyes@Mark:7:12 @ ye suffer him no longer to do anything for his father or his mother;

noyes@Mark:7:13 @ making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have handed down; and many such things ye do.

noyes@Mark:7:14 @ And again calling the multitude to him, he said to them, Hearken to me all of you, and understand.

noyes@Mark:7:15 @ Nothing that entereth into a man from without can defile him; but the things that come out of him are what defile a man.

noyes@Mark:7:17 @ And when he had gone into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.

noyes@Mark:7:18 @ And he saith to them, Are ye too so without discernment? Do ye not understand that whatever thing from without entereth into a man, cannot defile him?

noyes@Mark:7:19 @ because it entereth not into his heart, but into the stomach; and goeth out into the drain, which cleanseth all kinds of food.

noyes@Mark:7:20 @ And he said, That which cometh out of a man, that defileth a man.

noyes@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, come forth evil thoughts, fornications,

noyes@Mark:7:22 @ thefts, murders, adulteries, covetousness, iniquities, deceit, wantonness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.

noyes@Mark:7:23 @ All these evil things come from within, and defile a man.

noyes@Mark:7:24 @ And rising up, he departed thence into the borders of Tyre; and entering into a house, he desired that no one should know it; but he could not escape notice.

noyes@Mark:7:25 @ But a woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, immediately hearing of him, came in, and fell at his feet.

noyes@Mark:7:26 @ The woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast out the demon from her daughter.

noyes@Mark:7:27 @ And he said to her, Let the children be filled first; for it is not well to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs.

noyes@Mark:7:28 @ But she answered, and saith to him, Yea, Lord; even the little dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.

noyes@Mark:7:29 @ And he said to her, For this saying go thy way; the demon hath gone out of thy daughter.

noyes@Mark:7:30 @ And going away to her house, she found the child laid upon the bed, and the demon gone out.

noyes@Mark:7:31 @ And again leaving the borders of Tyre, he came through Sidon to the lake of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.

noyes@Mark:7:32 @ And they bring to him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech, and beseech him to lay his hand upon him.

noyes@Mark:7:33 @ And taking him aside from the multitude, he put his fingers into his ears, and having spit, touched his tongue;

noyes@Mark:7:34 @ and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

noyes@Mark:7:35 @ And his ears were opened; and the string of his tongue was immediately loosed, and he spoke plain.

noyes@Mark:7:36 @ And he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more did they publish it.

noyes@Mark:7:37 @ And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

noyes@Mark:8:1 @ In those days, there being again a great multitude, and they having nothing to eat, he called the disciples to him, and saith to them,

noyes@Mark:8:2 @ I have compassion on the multitude, because they have remained with me now three days, and they have nothing to eat.

noyes@Mark:8:3 @ And if I send them away fasting to their houses, they will faint on the road; and some of them have come from altar.

noyes@Mark:8:4 @ And his disciples answered him, Whence can ally one satisfy these men with bread here in a wilderness?

noyes@Mark:8:5 @ And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

noyes@Mark:8:6 @ And he ordered the multitude to lie down on the ground; and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and broke, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they set them before the multitude.

noyes@Mark:8:7 @ And they had a few small fishes; and having blessed them, he set them before them.

noyes@Mark:8:8 @ And they ate, and were filled; and they took up of the fragments that remained, seven baskets.

noyes@Mark:8:9 @ And they were about four thousand; and he sent them away.

noyes@Mark:8:10 @ And immediately going on board the boat with his disciples, he came into the region of Dalmanutha.

noyes@Mark:8:11 @ And the Pharisees came out, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, trying him.

noyes@Mark:8:12 @ And sighing deeply in his spirit, he saith, Why doth this generation seek for a sign? Truly do I say to you, A sign will not he given to this generation.

noyes@Mark:8:13 @ And leaving them, he again went on board and crossed to the other side.

noyes@Mark:8:14 @ And they had forgotten to take bread, and had not in the boat with them more than one loaf.

noyes@Mark:8:15 @ And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and the leaven of Herod.

noyes@Mark:8:16 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.

noyes@Mark:8:17 @ And knowing it, he saith to them, Why are ye reasoning, because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet perceive nor understand? Have ye your mind still blinded?

noyes@Mark:8:18 @ Having eyes, do ye not see? and having ears, do ye not hear? And do ye not remember,

noyes@Mark:8:19 @ when I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, and how many baskets full of fragments ye took up? They say to him, Twelve.

noyes@Mark:8:20 @ When also the seven among the four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did ye take up? And they say, Seven.

noyes@Mark:8:21 @ And he said to them, Do ye not yet understand?

noyes@Mark:8:22 @ And they come to Bethsaida. And they bring to him a blind man, and beseech him to touch him.

noyes@Mark:8:23 @ And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him out of the village; and spitting on his eyes, and putting his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.

noyes@Mark:8:24 @ And he looked up, and said, I can see men, for I see them as trees, walking.

noyes@Mark:8:25 @ Then he again put his hands on his eyes, and he saw clearly, and was restored, and saw all things distinctly.

noyes@Mark:8:26 @ And he sent him away to his house, saying, Go not into the village.

noyes@Mark:8:27 @ And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?

noyes@Mark:8:28 @ And they answered him, saying, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, One of the prophets.

noyes@Mark:8:29 @ And he asked them, But who do ye say that I am? Peter answering saith to him, Thou art the Christ.

noyes@Mark:8:30 @ And he strictly charged them to tell no one concerning him.

noyes@Mark:8:31 @ And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days rise again;

noyes@Mark:8:32 @ and he told them this plainly. And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him.

noyes@Mark:8:33 @ But he turning about and looking at his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith, Get thee behind me, Satan! for thy thoughts are not on the things of God, but on those of men.

noyes@Mark:8:34 @ And calling the multitude to him with his disciples also, he said to them, Whoever chooseth to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

noyes@Mark:8:35 @ For whoever chooseth to save his life, will lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for the sake of me and of the glad tidings, will save it.

noyes@Mark:8:36 @ For what doth it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?

noyes@Mark:8:37 @ For what can a man give as an exchange for his life?

noyes@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will also the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

noyes@Mark:9:1 @ And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There are some of those standing here who will not taste of death, till they have seen that the kingdom of God hath come with power.

noyes@Mark:9:2 @ And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, and leadeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them.

noyes@Mark:9:3 @ And his garments became glistening, very white, so as no fuller on earth can whiten.

noyes@Mark:9:4 @ And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.

noyes@Mark:9:5 @ And Peter answering saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

noyes@Mark:9:6 @ For he knew not what to answer; for they were struck with terror.

noyes@Mark:9:7 @ And there came a cloud overshadowing them; and a voice came out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son; hear him.

noyes@Mark:9:8 @ And suddenly looking round, they no longer saw any one but Jesus alone with themselves.

noyes@Mark:9:9 @ And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them to give no account of what they had seen to any one, till the Son of man should have risen from the dead.

noyes@Mark:9:10 @ And they kept these words in mind, questioning one another what rising from the dead might mean.

noyes@Mark:9:11 @ And they asked him, saying, How is it that the Pharisees and scribes say that Elijah must come first?

noyes@Mark:9:12 @ And he said to them, Elijah cometh first, and restoreth all things. And how hath it been written of the Son of man? that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

noyes@Mark:9:13 @ But I say to you that Elijah hath come, and they have done to him whatever they would; as it hath been written concerning him.

noyes@Mark:9:14 @ And coming to the disciples, they saw a great multitude about them, and scribes debating with them.

noyes@Mark:9:15 @ And immediately the whole multitude on seeing him was struck with awe, and running to him, saluted him.

noyes@Mark:9:16 @ And he asked them, About what are ye debating with them?

noyes@Mark:9:17 @ And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit.

noyes@Mark:9:18 @ And wherever it seizeth hold of him, it throweth him down; and he foameth and gnasheth his teeth; and he pineth away. And I spoke to thy disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.

noyes@Mark:9:19 @ He answereth and saith to them, O unbelieving generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.

noyes@Mark:9:20 @ And they brought him to him. And as soon as he saw him, the spirit convulsed him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed, foaming.

noyes@Mark:9:21 @ And he asked his father, How long hath it been thus with him? And he said, From a child;

noyes@Mark:9:22 @ and it hath often cast him both into fire, and into water, to destroy him; but if thou art able to do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

noyes@Mark:9:23 @ Jesus said to him, If thou art able? All things are possible for him that believeth.

noyes@Mark:9:24 @ The father of the child immediately cried out and said, I believe; help thou my unbelief.

noyes@Mark:9:25 @ And Jesus seeing that the multitude came running together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

noyes@Mark:9:26 @ And uttering a cry, and convulsing him much, it came out of him. And he became as one dead; so that very many said, He is dead.

noyes@Mark:9:27 @ But Jesus, taking hold of his hand, raised him, and he stood up.

noyes@Mark:9:28 @ And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast it out?

noyes@Mark:9:29 @ And he said to them, This kind can go out by nothing, except by prayer.

noyes@Mark:9:30 @ And departing thence, they passed through Galilee; and he would not that any one should know it.

noyes@Mark:9:31 @ For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he hath been put to death, after three days he will rise again.

noyes@Mark:9:32 @ But they understood not what he said, and were afraid to ask him.

noyes@Mark:9:33 @ And they came to Capernaum; and having come into the house, he asked them, About what were ye disputing on the road?

noyes@Mark:9:34 @ But they were silent; for on the road they had been disputing with one another, who was greatest.

noyes@Mark:9:35 @ And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them, If any one desire to be first, he will be last of all, and servant of all.

noyes@Mark:9:36 @ And he took a child, and placed him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them,

noyes@Mark:9:37 @ Whoever receiveth one of these children in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

noyes@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in thy name who followeth not us; and we forbade him, because he did not follow us.

noyes@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, Forbid him not. For no one, who shall do a miracle in my name, can readily speak evil of me.

noyes@Mark:9:40 @ For he that is not against us is for us.

noyes@Mark:9:41 @ For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, truly do I say to you, he will not lose his reward.

noyes@Mark:9:42 @ And whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe to fall away, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be cast into the sea.

noyes@Mark:9:43 @ And if thy hand cause thee to fall away, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having the two hands to go away into hell, into the fire that is unquenchable.

noyes@Mark:9:45 @ And if thy foot is causing thee to fall away, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having the two feet to be cast into hell.

noyes@Mark:9:47 @ And if thine eye is causing thee to fall away, pluck it out; it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell,

noyes@Mark:9:48 @ where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

noyes@Mark:9:49 @ For every one will be salted with fire.

noyes@Mark:9:50 @ Salt is good; but if the salt have lost its saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.

noyes@Mark:10:1 @ And departing thence, he cometh into the borders of Judaea, and to the other side of the Jordan; and multitudes again come together to him; and, as he was wont, he again taught them.

noyes@Mark:10:2 @ And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him whether it was lawful for a man to put away his wife, trying him.

noyes@Mark:10:3 @ And he answering said to them, What did Moses command you?

noyes@Mark:10:4 @ And they said, Moses permitted to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.

noyes@Mark:10:5 @ And Jesus said to them, On account of your hardness of heart he wrote you this command.

noyes@Mark:10:6 @ But, from the beginning of the creation, made them male and female.

noyes@Mark:10:7 @ "For this cause shall a man leave his father and his mother;

noyes@Mark:10:8 @ and the two shall become one flesh." So they are no longer two, but one flesh.

noyes@Mark:10:9 @ What therefore God joined together, let not man put asunder.

noyes@Mark:10:10 @ And in the house his disciples asked him again about this matter.

noyes@Mark:10:11 @ And he saith to them, Whoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery against her.

noyes@Mark:10:12 @ And if she put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

noyes@Mark:10:13 @ And they brought children to him, that he might touch them; and the disciples rebuked those that brought them.

noyes@Mark:10:14 @ But Jesus seeing it was much displeased, and said to them, Suffer the children to come to me; forbid them not; for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.

noyes@Mark:10:15 @ Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a child, will not enter therein.

noyes@Mark:10:16 @ And he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.

noyes@Mark:10:17 @ And as he was going out into the way, a certain one running up and kneeling to him, asked him, Good teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit everlasting life?

noyes@Mark:10:18 @ And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God.

noyes@Mark:10:19 @ Thou knowest the commandments, "Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honor thy father and thy mother."

noyes@Mark:10:20 @ And he said to him, Teacher, all these have I kept from my youth.

noyes@Mark:10:21 @ And Jesus looking at him, loved him, and said to him, One thing thou lackest; go, sell whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.

noyes@Mark:10:22 @ But his countenance fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.

noyes@Mark:10:23 @ And Jesus, looking round, saith to his disciples, How hardly shall they who have riches enter the kingdom t of God!

noyes@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answering again saith to them, Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!

noyes@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

noyes@Mark:10:26 @ And they were beyond measure astonished, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?

noyes@Mark:10:27 @ Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.

noyes@Mark:10:28 @ Peter began to say to him, Lo! we left all, and have followed thee.

noyes@Mark:10:29 @ Jesus said, Truly do I say to you, There is no one who hath left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for the sake of me and of the glad tidings,

noyes@Mark:10:32 @ And they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was leading the way; and they were amazed, and they that followed were afraid. And again taking the twelve aside, he began to tell them what things were about to befall him:

noyes@Mark:10:33 @ Lo! we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be delivered up to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him up to the gentiles;

noyes@Mark:10:34 @ and they will mock him, and spit upon him, and scourge him, and put him to death; and after three days he will rise again.

noyes@Mark:10:35 @ And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying to him, Teacher, we would that thou shouldst do for us whatever we shall ask thee.

noyes@Mark:10:36 @ And he said to them, What would ye that I should do for you?

noyes@Mark:10:37 @ And they said to him, Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, in thy glory.

noyes@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

noyes@Mark:10:39 @ And they said to him, We can. And Jesus said to them, Ye will drink the cup that I drink, and ye will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;

noyes@Mark:10:40 @ but to sit on my right hand or on my left is not mine to give, but it will be given to those for whom it hath been prepared.

noyes@Mark:10:41 @ And the ten hearing it began to be much displeased with James and John.

noyes@Mark:10:42 @ And Jesus, calling them to him, saith to them, Ye know that they who are accounted to rule over the nations lord it over them, and their great men exercise a strict authority over them.

noyes@Mark:10:43 @ But it is not so among you; but whoever desireth to become great among you, will be your minister;

noyes@Mark:10:44 @ and whoever of you desireth to become first, will be servant of all;

noyes@Mark:10:45 @ for even the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.

noyes@Mark:10:46 @ And they come to Jericho; and as he was going out of Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the wayside.

noyes@Mark:10:47 @ And hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, Son of David, Jesus, have pity on me!

noyes@Mark:10:48 @ And many sharply bade him be silent; but he cried out the more, Son of David, have pity on me!

noyes@Mark:10:49 @ And Jesus stopped, and said, Call him. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Be of good courage, rise, he calleth thee.

noyes@Mark:10:50 @ And throwing off his garment, he leaped up, and came to Jesus.

noyes@Mark:10:51 @ And Jesus answering said to him, What dost thou wish me to do for thee? The blind man said to him, My master, to restore my sight.

noyes@Mark:10:52 @ And Jesus said to him, Go; thy faith hath saved thee. And he immediately received his sight, and followed him on the road.

noyes@Mark:11:1 @ And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,

noyes@Mark:11:2 @ and saith to them, Go to the village over against you; and immediately on entering it ye will find a colt tied, on which no man hath yet sat; loose and bring it.

noyes@Mark:11:3 @ And if any one say to you, Why do ye this? say, The Lord hath need of it, and will immediately send it back hither.

noyes@Mark:11:4 @ And they went, and found the colt tied by the door without, on the street; and they loose it.

noyes@Mark:11:5 @ And some of those who were standing there said to them, What are ye about, loosing the colt?

noyes@Mark:11:6 @ And they said to them as Jesus had commanded; and they let them go.

noyes@Mark:11:7 @ And they bring the colt to Jesus, and put their garments on it; and he sat upon it.

noyes@Mark:11:8 @ And many spread their garments on the road; and others boughs, having cut them from the fields.

noyes@Mark:11:9 @ And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, Hosanna! Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord!

noyes@Mark:11:10 @ Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest heavens!

noyes@Mark:11:11 @ And he entered Jerusalem, and the temple; and having looked round on all things, the evening being now come, he went out to Bethany, with the twelve.

noyes@Mark:11:12 @ And on the morrow, when they had come from Bethany, he was hungry;

noyes@Mark:11:13 @ and seeing a fig–tree afar off having leaves, he went to see whether he might find anything on it; and on coming to it he found nothing but leaves; for the season of figs had not come.

noyes@Mark:11:14 @ And he answering said to it, Let no one eat fruit from thee henceforth for ever. And his disciples heard him.

noyes@Mark:11:15 @ And they come to Jerusalem. And he went into the temple, and began to cast out those who sold and bought in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money–changers, and the seats of those who sold the doves;

noyes@Mark:11:16 @ and he suffered no one to carry any vessel through the temple.

noyes@Mark:11:17 @ And he taught, and said to them, Is it not written, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? but ye have made it a den of robbers."

noyes@Mark:11:18 @ And the chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him; for they feared him; because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

noyes@Mark:11:19 @ And when it became late, he went out of the city.

noyes@Mark:11:20 @ And in the morning, as they were passing by, they saw the fig–tree withered from the roots.

noyes@Mark:11:21 @ And Peter remembered and said to him, Rabbi, see! the fig–tree which thou didst curse is withered away.

noyes@Mark:11:22 @ And Jesus answering saith to them, Have faith in God.

noyes@Mark:11:23 @ Truly do I say to you, that whoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou taken up, and cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he saith will come to pass, he shall have it.

noyes@Mark:11:24 @ Therefore I say to you, All things whatever ye pray for and ask, believe that ye have obtained, and ye shall have them.

noyes@Mark:11:25 @ And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any one, that your Father who is in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

noyes@Mark:11:27 @ And they come again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the elders;

noyes@Mark:11:28 @ and they said to him, By what authority doest thou these things? or who gave thee this authority to do these things?

noyes@Mark:11:29 @ And Jesus said to them, I will ask you one question; and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

noyes@Mark:11:30 @ The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me.

noyes@Mark:11:31 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven, he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?

noyes@Mark:11:32 @ But shall we say, From men? They feared the people; for all regarded John as truly a prophet.

noyes@Mark:11:33 @ And they answered and said to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus saith to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

noyes@Mark:12:1 @ And he began to speak to them in parables: A man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and dug a wine–vat, and built a tower; and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad.

noyes@Mark:12:2 @ And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruits of the vineyard.

noyes@Mark:12:3 @ And they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty–handed.

noyes@Mark:12:4 @ And again he sent to them another servant; and him they wounded in the head, and treated shamefully.

noyes@Mark:12:5 @ And he sent another; and him they killed; and many others, beating some, and killing some.

noyes@Mark:12:6 @ Still he had one beloved son; he sent him last to them, saying, They will respect my son.

noyes@Mark:12:7 @ But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.

noyes@Mark:12:8 @ And they took him and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

noyes@Mark:12:9 @ What will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.

noyes@Mark:12:10 @ And have ye not read this scripture: "The stone which the builders rejected, the same hath become the cornerstone;

noyes@Mark:12:11 @ from the Lord did this come, and it is marvelous in our eyes"?

noyes@Mark:12:12 @ And they sought to seize him, but feared the multitude; for they knew that he spoke the parable against them. And they left him, and went away.

noyes@Mark:12:13 @ And they send to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to ensnare him in speech.

noyes@Mark:12:14 @ And they come and say to him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest for no one; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

noyes@Mark:12:15 @ Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, seeing their hypocrisy, said to them, Why are ye trying me? Bring me a denary, that I may see it.

noyes@Mark:12:16 @ And they brought one. And he saith to them, Whose is this image and inscription? And they said to him, Caesar’s.

noyes@Mark:12:17 @ And Jesus said to them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And they marveled at him exceedingly.

noyes@Mark:12:18 @ Then come to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

noyes@Mark:12:19 @ Teacher, Moses wrote to us, "If a man’s brother die, and leave a wife and no child, his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother."

noyes@Mark:12:20 @ There were seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

noyes@Mark:12:21 @ And the second took her and died, leaving no seed; and the third likewise.

noyes@Mark:12:22 @ And the seven left no seed. Last of all, the woman also died.

noyes@Mark:12:23 @ In the resurrection, when they have risen, of which of them will she be wife? for the seven had her for a wife.

noyes@Mark:12:24 @ Jesus said to them, Do ye not err on this account, that ye know not the Scriptures, nor the power of God?

noyes@Mark:12:25 @ For when they have risen from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels in heaven.

noyes@Mark:12:26 @ And concerning the dead, that they are raised, have ye not read in the book of Moses, at the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, "I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob"?

noyes@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. Ye err greatly.

noyes@Mark:12:28 @ And one of the scribes came up, having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which commandment is first of all?

noyes@Mark:12:29 @ Jesus answered, The first is, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord;

noyes@Mark:12:30 @ and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength."

noyes@Mark:12:31 @ The second is this: "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." There is no other commandment greater than these.

noyes@Mark:12:32 @ And the scribe said to him, In truth, Teacher, thou hast well said, that He is one, and that there is no other but he;

noyes@Mark:12:33 @ and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as one’s self, is more than all the whole burnt–offerings and the sacrifices.

noyes@Mark:12:34 @ And Jesus, perceiving that he answered wisely, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And after this no one dared to question him.

noyes@Mark:12:35 @ And Jesus answered and said, while he was teaching in the temple, How is it that the scribes say, that the Christ is David’s son?

noyes@Mark:12:36 @ David himself said in the Holy Spirit, "The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool."

noyes@Mark:12:37 @ David himself calleth him lord; and how can he be his son? And the great multitude heard him gladly.

noyes@Mark:12:38 @ And he said in his teaching, Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and love salutations in the markets,

noyes@Mark:12:39 @ and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the first places at feasts;

noyes@Mark:12:40 @ who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers. These will receive a far greater condemnation.

noyes@Mark:12:41 @ And he sat over against the treasury, and was beholding how the people cast money into the treasury. And many that were rich were casting in much.

noyes@Mark:12:42 @ And a certain poor widow came and threw in two mites, which make a farthing.

noyes@Mark:12:43 @ And he called to him his disciples, and said to them, Truly do I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than all those who are casting into the treasury.

noyes@Mark:12:44 @ For they all threw in of their abundance; but she out of her penury threw in all that she had, her whole living.

noyes@Mark:13:1 @ And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith to him, Teacher, see! what stones, and what buildings!

noyes@Mark:13:2 @ And Jesus said to him, Seest thou these great buildings? There will not be left one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.

noyes@Mark:13:3 @ And as he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

noyes@Mark:13:4 @ Tell us, when will these things be? and what will be the sign when all these things are about to be accomplished?

noyes@Mark:13:5 @ And Jesus began to say to them, See that no one deceive you.

noyes@Mark:13:6 @ Many will come in my name, saying, I am He; and will deceive many.

noyes@Mark:13:7 @ And when ye hear of wars, and rumors of wars, be not troubled; they must come to pass; but not yet is the end.

noyes@Mark:13:8 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in divers places; there will be famines. These things are the beginning of travail–pains.

noyes@Mark:13:9 @ But do ye take heed to yourselves; they will deliver you up to councils, and ye will be taken into synagogues and beaten; and ye will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them.

noyes@Mark:13:10 @ And the glad tidings must first be published to all the nations.

noyes@Mark:13:11 @ And when they lead you away to deliver you up, be not anxious beforehand as to what ye shall speak; but whatever shall be given you in that hour, that speak; for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Spirit.

noyes@Mark:13:12 @ And brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child; and children will rise up against parents, and put them to death.

noyes@Mark:13:13 @ And ye will be hated by all on account of my name. But he that endureth to the end will be saved.

noyes@Mark:13:14 @ But when ye see the abomination of desolation standing where it ought not,––let him that readeth understand,––then let those who are in Judaea flee to the mountains;

noyes@Mark:13:15 @ let not him that is on the house–top go down, nor enter, to take anything out of his house;

noyes@Mark:13:16 @ and let not him that is in the field turn back to take his garment.

noyes@Mark:13:17 @ And woe to the women with child, and to those with children at the breast, in those days!

noyes@Mark:13:18 @ And pray that it may not be in winter.

noyes@Mark:13:19 @ For those days will be a time of distress, such as hath not been from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, nor shall be.

noyes@Mark:13:20 @ And if the Lord had not shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the sake of the chosen whom he chose, he shortened the days.

noyes@Mark:13:21 @ And then if any one shall say to you, See! here is the Christ; see! there; believe him not.

noyes@Mark:13:22 @ For false Christs and false prophets will rise up, and will do signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, the chosen.

noyes@Mark:13:23 @ But do ye take heed! I have told you all beforehand.

noyes@Mark:13:24 @ But in those days, after that distress, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give her light;

noyes@Mark:13:25 @ and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken.

noyes@Mark:13:26 @ And then will they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

noyes@Mark:13:27 @ And then will he send forth the angels, and will gather the chosen ones from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

noyes@Mark:13:28 @ And from the fig–tree learn its parable. When its branch hath now become tender, and putteth forth its leaves, ye know that summer is near.

noyes@Mark:13:29 @ So also, when ye see these things coming to pass, know ye that he is near, at the doors.

noyes@Mark:13:30 @ Truly do I say to you, that this generation will not pass away, till all these things take place.

noyes@Mark:13:31 @ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

noyes@Mark:13:32 @ But that day or hour knoweth no one, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.

noyes@Mark:13:33 @ Take heed, watch; for ye know not when the time is.

noyes@Mark:13:34 @ As a man going abroad, having left his house and given authority to his servants, to each one his work, also commanded the porter to watch,

noyes@Mark:13:35 @ so also watch ye; for ye know not when the master of the house is coming, whether at evening, or at midnight, or at the cock–crowing, or in the morning;

noyes@Mark:13:36 @ lest coming suddenly, he find you sleeping.

noyes@Mark:13:37 @ And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch.

noyes@Mark:14:1 @ And two days after was the passover, and the feast of unleavened bread; and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might seize him by craft, and put him to death.

noyes@Mark:14:2 @ For they said, Not at the feast, lest there be an uproar among the people.

noyes@Mark:14:3 @ And when he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, there came a woman having an alabaster bottle of ointment of pure spikenard, very precious; and breaking the bottle, she poured it on his head.

noyes@Mark:14:4 @ And there were some that were much displeased, among themselves, Why is this waste of the ointment made?

noyes@Mark:14:5 @ For this ointment might have been sold for more than three hundred denaries, and given to the poor. And they chid her harshly.

noyes@Mark:14:6 @ But Jesus said, Let her alone; why do ye trouble her? A good deed hath she done for me.

noyes@Mark:14:7 @ For the poor ye have always with you, and whenever ye will, ye can do good to them; but me ye have not always.

noyes@Mark:14:8 @ She hath done what she could; she hath anointed my body beforehand for its burial.

noyes@Mark:14:9 @ And truly do I say to you, Wherever the glad tidings shall be published throughout the whole world, this too which she hath done will be told for a memorial of her.

noyes@Mark:14:10 @ And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, that he might deliver him up to them.

noyes@Mark:14:11 @ And they when they heard it were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought a good opportunity to deliver him up.

noyes@Mark:14:12 @ And on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, when they used to kill the passover, his disciples say to him, Where wilt thou that we go and make ready for thee to eat the passover?

noyes@Mark:14:13 @ And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith to them, Go into the city, and there will meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him;

noyes@Mark:14:14 @ and wherever he goeth in, say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith, Where is my guest–chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

noyes@Mark:14:15 @ And he will show you a large upper room furnished and prepared; and there make ready for us.

noyes@Mark:14:16 @ And the disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had told them; and they made ready the passover.

noyes@Mark:14:17 @ And when it was evening, he cometh with the twelve.

noyes@Mark:14:18 @ And as they were reclining at table and eating, Jesus said, Truly do I say to you, that one of you will betray me,––one that is eating with me.

noyes@Mark:14:19 @ They began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one, Is it I?

noyes@Mark:14:20 @ And he said to them, It is one of the twelve, one that is dipping with me in the dish.

noyes@Mark:14:21 @ For the Son of man indeed goeth away, as it hath been written concerning him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! Well were it for that man if he had not been born.

noyes@Mark:14:22 @ And as they were eating, he took a loaf, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to them, and said, Take; this is my body.

noyes@Mark:14:23 @ And he took a cup, and having given thanks, gave it to them; and they all drank of it.

noyes@Mark:14:24 @ And he said to them, This is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many.

noyes@Mark:14:25 @ Truly do I say to you, I shall not drink hereafter of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

noyes@Mark:14:26 @ And having sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

noyes@Mark:14:27 @ And Jesus saith to them, Ye will all fall away from me; for it is written, "I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered."

noyes@Mark:14:28 @ But after I have risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

noyes@Mark:14:29 @ But Peter said to him, Even if all shall fall away, yet will not I.

noyes@Mark:14:30 @ And Jesus saith to him, Truly do I say to thee, that even thou, to–day, on this night, before a cock crow twice, wilt thrice deny me.

noyes@Mark:14:31 @ But he spoke the more vehemently: If I must die with thee, I will not deny thee. And so also said they all.

noyes@Mark:14:32 @ And they come to a place called Gethsemane; and he saith to his disciples, Sit here, while I pray.

noyes@Mark:14:33 @ And he taketh with him Peter and James and John; and began to be in great consternation and anguish.

noyes@Mark:14:34 @ And he saith to them, My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death; remain here and watch.

noyes@Mark:14:35 @ And going on a little farther, he fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it was possible, the hour might pass from him.

noyes@Mark:14:36 @ And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee! take away this cup from me. But not what I will, but what thou wilt.

noyes@Mark:14:37 @ And he cometh and findeth them sleeping; and he saith to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? Couldst not thou watch one hour?

noyes@Mark:14:38 @ Watch, and pray that ye enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

noyes@Mark:14:39 @ And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words.

noyes@Mark:14:40 @ And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what to answer him.

noyes@Mark:14:41 @ And he cometh the third time, and saith to them, Sleep on, and take your rest! It is enough! the hour is come: lo! the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.

noyes@Mark:14:42 @ Rise, let us be going; lo! he that delivereth me up is at hand.

noyes@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, and with him a multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and elders.

noyes@Mark:14:44 @ And his betrayer had given them a signal, saying, Whomever I shall kiss, he is the man; seize him, and lead him away securely.

noyes@Mark:14:45 @ And on coming he immediately went up to him, and said, Rabbi! and kissed him.

noyes@Mark:14:46 @ And they laid hands on him and seized him.

noyes@Mark:14:47 @ And one of those who stood by drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high–priest, and cut off his ear.

noyes@Mark:14:48 @ And Jesus answering said to them, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me.

noyes@Mark:14:49 @ I was daily with you in the temple, teaching, and ye did not lay hands on me; but, that the Scriptures may be fulfilled.

noyes@Mark:14:50 @ And all forsook him and fled.

noyes@Mark:14:51 @ And there followed him a certain young man having a linen cloth wrapped round his naked body; and they laid hold of him.

noyes@Mark:14:52 @ And he left the linen cloth behind, and fled naked.

noyes@Mark:14:53 @ And they led Jesus away to the high–priest; and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes come together.

noyes@Mark:14:54 @ And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the palace of the high–priest, and was sitting with the officers, and warming himself at the fire.

noyes@Mark:14:55 @ And the chief priests and the whole council sought for testimony against Jesus in order to put him to death; and they found none.

noyes@Mark:14:56 @ For many bore false witness against him, but their testimonies did not agree together.

noyes@Mark:14:57 @ And some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying,

noyes@Mark:14:58 @ We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another not made with hands.

noyes@Mark:14:59 @ And not even so did their testimony agree.

noyes@Mark:14:60 @ And the high–priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Dost thou make no answer to what these men testify against thee?

noyes@Mark:14:61 @ But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the high–priest asked him, and saith to him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

noyes@Mark:14:62 @ And Jesus said, I am; and ye will see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.

noyes@Mark:14:63 @ Then the high–priest rent his garments, and said, What further need have we of witnesses?

noyes@Mark:14:64 @ Ye have heard the blasphemy; what think ye? And they all condemned him as deserving the punishment of death.

noyes@Mark:14:65 @ And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face and buffet him, and say to him, Prophesy! And the officers, with blows, took him in charge.

noyes@Mark:14:66 @ And as Peter was below in the court, there cometh one of the maid–servants of the high–priest;

noyes@Mark:14:67 @ and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, Thou too wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.

noyes@Mark:14:68 @ But he denied, saying, I do not know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the fore–court; and a cock crew.

noyes@Mark:14:69 @ And the maid–servant, seeing him, began again to say to those who were standing by, This is one of them.

noyes@Mark:14:71 @ But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak.

noyes@Mark:14:72 @ And immediately a cock crew a second time. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

noyes@Mark:15:3 @ And the chief priests brought many charges against him.

noyes@Mark:15:4 @ And Pilate asked him again, Dost thou make no answer? See what things they are testifying against thee!

noyes@Mark:15:5 @ But Jesus made no further answer; so that Pilate marveled.

noyes@Mark:15:7 @ And there was one named Barabbas, who lay bound with insurgents who had committed murder in the insurrection.

noyes@Mark:15:8 @ And the multitude, coming up, began to ask him to do as he had been wont to do for them.

noyes@Mark:15:9 @ And Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release to you the king of the Jews?

noyes@Mark:15:10 @ For he knew that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.

noyes@Mark:15:11 @ But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release to them Barabbas.

noyes@Mark:15:12 @ And Pilate answering again said to them, What then would ye have me do with him whom ye call the king of the Jews?

noyes@Mark:15:13 @ And they cried out again, Crucify him!

noyes@Mark:15:14 @ Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more, Crucify him!

noyes@Mark:15:15 @ And Pilate, wishing to satisfy the multitude, released to them Barabbas; and, when he had scourged Jesus, delivered him up to be crucified.

noyes@Mark:15:19 @ And they struck him on the head with a reed, and spit upon him, and kneeling down, did him homage.

noyes@Mark:15:20 @ And after they had made sport of him, they stripped him of the purple robe, and put his own garments on him. And they lead him out to crucify him.

noyes@Mark:15:23 @ And they gave him wine mingled with myrrh; but he did not take it.

noyes@Mark:15:24 @ And they crucify him, and divide his garments, casting lots for them, what each should take.

noyes@Mark:15:25 @ And it was the third hour when they crucified him.

noyes@Mark:15:26 @ And on the cross the inscription of the charge against him was written: "The king of the Jews."

noyes@Mark:15:27 @ And with him they crucify two robbers; one on his right hand, and one on his left.

noyes@Mark:15:29 @ And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ha! thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it up in three days,

noyes@Mark:15:30 @ save thyself, and come down from the cross.

noyes@Luke:5:5 @ And Simon answering said, Master, we toiled all night, and took nothing; but at thy word I will let down the nets.

noyes@Luke:5:6 @ And having done this, they inclosed great multitude of fishes; and their nets began to break.

noyes@Luke:5:12 @ And it came to pass, when he was in one of the cities, lo! a man full of leprosy; and seeing Jesus, he fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.

noyes@Luke:5:13 @ And he put forth his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed. And immediately the leprosy left him.

noyes@Luke:5:14 @ And he charged him to tell no one: but go, and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

noyes@Luke:5:15 @ But so much the more went abroad the report concerning him; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed of their infirmities.

noyes@Luke:5:16 @ But he was wont to withdraw to desert places, and pray.

noyes@Luke:5:17 @ And it came to pass on a certain day, that he was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the law, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was present that he might heal.

noyes@Luke:5:18 @ And lo! men brought on a bed a man that was palsied; and they endeavored to bring him in, and to set him before him.

noyes@Luke:5:19 @ And not finding any way to bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the house–top, and let him down through the tiling with the couch into the midst before Jesus.

noyes@Luke:5:20 @ And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.

noyes@Luke:5:21 @ And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this that speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?

noyes@Luke:5:22 @ But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, answered and said to them, What are ye thinking in your hearts?

noyes@Luke:5:23 @ Which is easier? to say, Thy sins have been forgiven thee? or to say, Arise, and walk?

noyes@Luke:5:24 @ But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins,––he said to the palsied man,––I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go to thy house.

noyes@Luke:5:26 @ And amazement seized them all, and they gave glory to God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to–day.

noyes@Luke:5:27 @ And after these things he went out, and saw a publican named Levi, sitting at the custom–house; and he said to him, Follow me.

noyes@Luke:5:28 @ And leaving everything, he arose and followed him.

noyes@Luke:5:29 @ And Levi made a great feast for him at his house, and there was a great company of publicans and others, who were reclining at table with them.

noyes@Luke:5:30 @ And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with the publicans and sinners?

noyes@Luke:5:31 @ And Jesus answering said to them, They who are well do not need a physician, but they who are sick.

noyes@Luke:5:32 @ I have not come to call righteous men, but sinners to repentance.

noyes@Luke:5:33 @ And they said to him, The disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink.

noyes@Luke:5:34 @ But Jesus said to them, Can ye make the companions of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them?

noyes@Luke:5:35 @ But the days will come––and when the bridegroom is taken from them, then will they fast in those days.

noyes@Luke:5:36 @ And he spoke also a parable to them: No one taketh a patch from a new garment and putteth it upon an old one; for then both the new garment would be rent, and the patch from the new garment would not match with the old.

noyes@Luke:5:37 @ And no one putteth new wine into old skins; for the new wine would burst the skins, and would itself run out, and the skins would be spoilt.

noyes@Luke:5:38 @ But new wine must be put into new skins.

noyes@Luke:5:39 @ And no one, having drunk old wine, desireth new; for he saith, The old is good.

noyes@Luke:6:1 @ And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he was going through grain–fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of grain, and ate them, rubbing them with their hands.

noyes@Luke:6:2 @ And some of the Pharisees said, Why are ye doing that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath?

noyes@Luke:6:3 @ And Jesus answering them, said, Have ye not even read what David did, when he was himself hungry, and they who were with him?

noyes@Luke:6:4 @ how he went into the house of God, and took and ate the show–bread, and gave it also to those who were with him, which it is not lawful for any to eat but the priests alone?

noyes@Luke:6:5 @ And he said to them, The Son of man is lord even of the sabbath.

noyes@Luke:6:6 @ And it came to pass on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and taught; and there was a man there whose right hand was withered.

noyes@Luke:6:7 @ And the scribes and the Pharisees were watching whether he would heal on the sabbath, that they might find an accusation against him.

noyes@Luke:6:8 @ But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man having the withered hand, Rise, and stand up in the midst. And he arose, and stood up.

noyes@Luke:6:9 @ And Jesus said to them, I ask you whether it is lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do evil; to save life, or to kill?

noyes@Luke:6:10 @ And looking round on them all, he said to him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so; and his hand was restored.

noyes@Luke:6:11 @ But they were filled with madness, and conferred with one another as to what they should do to Jesus.

noyes@Luke:6:12 @ And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all night in prayer to God.

noyes@Luke:6:13 @ And when it was day, he called to him his disciples; and he chose from them twelve, whom he also named apostles;

noyes@Luke:6:14 @ Simon, whom he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,

noyes@Luke:6:18 @ And they that were harassed with unclean spirits were cured.

noyes@Luke:6:19 @ And the whole multitude sought to touch him, because power went out of him and healed all.

noyes@Luke:6:20 @ And raising his eyes toward his disciples, he said, Blessed are ye poor; for yours is the kingdom of God.

noyes@Luke:6:21 @ Blessed are ye that hunger now; for ye will be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now; for ye will laugh.

noyes@Luke:6:22 @ Blessed are ye when men hate you, and when they exclude you, and revile and cast out your name as evil, on account of the Son of man.

noyes@Luke:6:23 @ Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy; for lo! your reward is great in heaven; for thus their fathers did to the prophets.

noyes@Luke:6:24 @ But woe to you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

noyes@Luke:6:25 @ Woe to you that are full now! for ye will hunger. Woe to you that laugh now! for ye will mourn and weep.

noyes@Luke:6:26 @ Woe, when all men speak well of you! for so did their fathers of the false prophets.

noyes@Luke:6:27 @ But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies; do good to those who hate you;

noyes@Luke:6:28 @ bless those who curse you; pray for those who are spiteful to you.

noyes@Luke:6:29 @ To him that smiteth thee on one cheek, offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also.

noyes@Luke:6:30 @ Give to every one that asketh of thee; and from him that taketh away thy goods, demand them not again.

noyes@Luke:6:31 @ And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also in like manner to them.

noyes@Luke:6:32 @ And if ye love those who love you, what thanks do ye deserve? for sinners also love those who love them.

noyes@Luke:6:33 @ For if ye do good to those who do good to you, what thanks do ye deserve? even sinners do the same.

noyes@Luke:6:34 @ And if ye lend to those from whom ye expect to receive, what thanks do ye deserve? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much in return.

noyes@Luke:6:35 @ But love your enemies, and do good and lend, despairing of no one; and your reward will be great, and ye will be sons of the Most High; for he is kind to the unthankful and wicked.

noyes@Luke:6:36 @ Be merciful, as your Father is merciful.

noyes@Luke:6:37 @ And judge not, and ye will not be judged; and condemn not, and ye will not be condemned; forgive, and ye will be forgiven;

noyes@Luke:6:39 @ And he spoke also a parable to them: Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a ditch?

noyes@Luke:6:40 @ A disciple is not above his teacher; but every one when fully instructed will be as his teacher.

noyes@Luke:6:41 @ And why dost thou look at the mote in thy brother’s eye, and not perceive the beam that is in thine own eye?

noyes@Luke:6:42 @ How canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me take out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself perceivest not the beam in thine own eye? Hypocrite! first cast the beam out of thine own eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to take out the mote that is in thy brother’s eye.

noyes@Luke:6:43 @ For there is no good tree that beareth bad fruit; and again, there is no bad tree that beareth good fruit.

noyes@Luke:6:44 @ For every tree is known by its own fruit; for from thorns men do not gather figs, nor from a bramble–bush do they gather grapes.

noyes@Luke:6:45 @ The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil; for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaketh.

noyes@Luke:6:47 @ Every one that cometh to me and heareth my sayings and doeth them, I will show you whom he is like.

noyes@Luke:6:48 @ He is like a man building a house, who dug deep, and laid its foundation on a rock; and when a flood arose, the stream dashed against that house, and could not shake it; because it was well built.

noyes@Luke:6:49 @ But he that heareth and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream dashed, and it fell at once, and the ruin of that house was great.

noyes@Luke:7:1 @ When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.

noyes@Luke:7:2 @ And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.

noyes@Luke:7:3 @ And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.

noyes@Luke:7:4 @ And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;

noyes@Luke:7:5 @ for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.

noyes@Luke:7:6 @ And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof;

noyes@Luke:7:7 @ on which account I did not think myself worthy to come to thee; but command with a word, and let my servant be healed.

noyes@Luke:7:8 @ For even I am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

noyes@Luke:7:9 @ And Jesus hearing this, wondered at him; and turning round said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found such faith.

noyes@Luke:7:10 @ And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.

noyes@Luke:7:11 @ And it came to pass the day after, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples were with him, and a great multitude.

noyes@Luke:7:12 @ And as he came near the gate of the city, lo! there was carried out dead an only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.

noyes@Luke:7:13 @ And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.

noyes@Luke:7:14 @ And he came up, and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Rise.

noyes@Luke:7:15 @ And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.

noyes@Luke:7:16 @ And fear seized on all, and they gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet hath risen up among us; and, God hath visited his people.

noyes@Luke:7:17 @ And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.

noyes@Luke:7:18 @ And the disciples of John told him all these things.

noyes@Luke:7:19 @ And calling to him two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?

noyes@Luke:7:20 @ And the men came to him and said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?

noyes@Luke:7:21 @ In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.

noyes@Luke:7:22 @ And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John what ye have seen and heard; that the blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are brought;

noyes@Luke:7:23 @ and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.

noyes@Luke:7:24 @ And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What have ye gone out into the wilderness to see? the reeds shaken by the wind?

noyes@Luke:7:25 @ But what have ye gone out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Lo! they who wear gorgeous apparel, and live luxuriously, are in kings’ palaces.

noyes@Luke:7:26 @ But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

noyes@Luke:7:27 @ This is he of whom it is written, "Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee."

noyes@Luke:7:28 @ I say to you, Among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John; but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

noyes@Luke:7:29 @ And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.

noyes@Luke:7:30 @ But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.

noyes@Luke:7:31 @ To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?

noyes@Luke:7:32 @ They are like children sitting in the market–place, and calling one to another, saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance; we sung a dirge, and ye did not weep.

noyes@Luke:7:49 @ And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?

noyes@Luke:7:50 @ But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

noyes@Luke:8:13 @ Those on the rocky ground are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root; and for a while they believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

noyes@Luke:9:29 @ And while he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was changed, and his raiment became white and glistening.

noyes@Luke:9:30 @ And lo! two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah;

noyes@Luke:9:31 @ who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure which he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem.

noyes@Luke:9:33 @ And it came to pass as they were parting from him, that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah; ––not knowing what he said.

noyes@Luke:9:34 @ But as he was saying this, there came a cloud and overshadowed them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.

noyes@Luke:9:35 @ And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, "This is my chosen Son; hear him."

noyes@Luke:9:37 @ And it came to pass that on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.

noyes@Luke:9:38 @ And lo! a man from the multitude cried out, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee, look upon my son, for he is my only child;

noyes@Luke:9:40 @ And I besought thy disciples to cast it out, and they could not.

noyes@Luke:9:41 @ And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? Bring thy son hither.

noyes@Luke:9:42 @ And while he was yet coming, the demon threw him down, and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him to his father.

noyes@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they were all wondering at all the things which he did, he said to his disciples,

noyes@Luke:9:44 @ As for you, let these words sink into your ears; for the Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men.

noyes@Luke:9:45 @ But they knew not the meaning of these words, and it was hidden from them, that they might not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask him about these words.

noyes@Luke:9:46 @ And there arose a reasoning among them, which of them was greatest.

noyes@Luke:9:47 @ And Jesus knowing the reasoning of their heart, took a child and set him by his side,

noyes@Luke:9:48 @ and said to them, Whoever receiveth this child in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth him who sent me. For he that is least among you all, he is great.

noyes@Luke:9:49 @ And John answering said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow in our company.

noyes@Luke:9:50 @ But Jesus said to him, Forbid him not; for he that is not against you is for you.

noyes@Luke:9:51 @ And it came to pass, when the time was near for his being received up, that he himself steadily set his face to go to Jerusalem.

noyes@Luke:9:52 @ And he sent messengers before him; and they went and entered a city of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

noyes@Luke:9:53 @ And they did not receive him, because his face was as if he were going to Jerusalem.

noyes@Luke:9:54 @ And the disciples James and John, on seeing it, said, Lord, wilt thou have us bid fire come down from heaven, and consume them?

noyes@Luke:9:55 @ But he turned and rebuked them.

noyes@Luke:9:56 @ And they went to another village.

noyes@Luke:9:57 @ And as they were traveling on the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wherever thou goest.

noyes@Luke:9:58 @ And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have lodging–places; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

noyes@Luke:9:59 @ And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Suffer me first to go and bury my father.

noyes@Luke:9:60 @ And he said to him, Let the dead bury their own dead; but go thou and carry the tidings of the kingdom of God.

noyes@Luke:9:61 @ And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord; but first let me bid farewell to those who are in my house.

noyes@Luke:9:62 @ And Jesus said to him, No one who looketh back after putting his hand to the plough is fit for the kingdom of God.

noyes@Luke:10:1 @ After these things, the Lord appointed also seventy others, and sent them two and two before him into every city and place where he himself was about to come.

noyes@Luke:10:2 @ And he said to them, The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest.

noyes@Luke:10:3 @ Go forth; lo! I send you as lambs into the midst of wolves.

noyes@Luke:10:4 @ Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; salute no one by the way.

noyes@Luke:10:5 @ And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

noyes@Luke:10:6 @ And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; if not, it shall return to you.

noyes@Luke:10:7 @ And abide in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.

noyes@Luke:10:8 @ And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat what is set before you,

noyes@Luke:10:9 @ and heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The kingdom of God hath come near to you.

noyes@Luke:10:10 @ But into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into its streets and say,

noyes@Luke:10:11 @ Even the dust of your city that cleaveth to our feet we wipe off to you; but know this, that the kingdom of God hath come near.

noyes@Luke:10:12 @ And I tell you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.

noyes@Luke:10:13 @ Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

noyes@Luke:10:14 @ But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.

noyes@Luke:10:15 @ And thou, Capernaum! shalt thou be exalted to heaven? thou shalt be brought down to the underworld.

noyes@Luke:10:16 @ He that hearkeneth to you, hearkeneth to me; and he that rejecteth you, rejecteth me; but he that rejecteth me, rejecteth him that sent me.

noyes@Luke:10:17 @ And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in thy name.

noyes@Luke:10:18 @ And he said to them, I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning.

noyes@Luke:10:19 @ Lo! I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the might of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

noyes@Luke:10:20 @ Yet rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names have been written in heaven.

noyes@Luke:10:21 @ In that hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, thou didst reveal them to babes. Yea, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. And turning to the disciples he said,

noyes@Luke:10:22 @ All things were delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom it is the will of the Son to reveal him.

noyes@Luke:10:23 @ And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye are seeing.

noyes@Luke:10:24 @ For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye are seeing, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye are hearing, and heard them not.

noyes@Luke:10:25 @ And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life?

noyes@Luke:10:28 @ And he said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this, and thou shalt live.

noyes@Luke:10:29 @ But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

noyes@Luke:10:30 @ Jesus answering said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers; who after stripping him of his raiment, and wounding him, departed, leaving him half dead.

noyes@Luke:10:31 @ And by chance a certain priest was going down on that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

noyes@Luke:10:32 @ And in like manner also a Levite, having arrived at the place, came and saw, and passed by on the other side.

noyes@Luke:10:33 @ But a certain Samaritan, as he was journeying, came where he was, and when he saw him, had compassion,

noyes@Luke:10:34 @ and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and setting him on his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

noyes@Luke:10:35 @ And the next day, he took out two denaries and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatever thou spendest more, I, when I come back, will repay thee.

noyes@Luke:10:42 @ But one thing is needful. For Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

noyes@Luke:11:1 @ And it came to pass, as he was in a certain place praying, that when he ceased one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.

noyes@Luke:11:2 @ And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Father, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come;

noyes@Luke:11:3 @ give us day by day our daily bread;

noyes@Luke:11:4 @ and forgive us our sins, for even we ourselves forgive every one that is indebted to us; and lead us not into temptation.

noyes@Luke:12:2 @ But there is nothing covered, that will not be revealed; and hid, that will not be known.

noyes@Luke:12:3 @ Therefore, whatever ye have said in darkness, will be heard in the light; and what ye have spoken in the ear in closets, will be proclaimed upon the house–tops.

noyes@Luke:17:4 @ And if he sin against thee seven times in a day, and seven times turn to thee, saying, I repent, thou shalt forgive him.

noyes@Luke:17:5 @ And the apostles said to the Lord, Give us more faith.

noyes@Luke:17:6 @ But the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard, ye might say to this sycamine–tree, Be plucked up by the roots, and planted in the sea! and it would obey you.

noyes@Luke:17:7 @ And which of you having a servant plowing, or feeding cattle, will say to him, when he hath come in from the field, Come immediately and place thyself at table?

noyes@Luke:17:8 @ Will he not rather say to him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself and serve me till I have eaten and drunken, and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?

noyes@Luke:17:9 @ Doth he owe any thanks to that servant, because he did what was commanded?

noyes@Luke:17:10 @ So also do ye, when ye have done all that hath been commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants; we have done what we were bound to do.

noyes@Luke:17:21 @ nor will they say, Lo here! or there! for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.

noyes@Luke:17:22 @ And he said to the disciples, The days will come, when ye will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and will not see it.

noyes@Luke:17:23 @ And they will say to you, Lo there! lo here! Go not away, and follow not.

noyes@Luke:17:24 @ For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of one part under heaven, shineth to the other part under heaven, so will the Son of man be in his day.

noyes@Luke:17:25 @ But first he must suffer much, and be rejected by this generation.

noyes@Luke:17:37 @ And they answering say to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there also will the eagles be gathered together.

noyes@Luke:18:1 @ And he spoke a parable to them to show that they ought to pray always, and not be faint–hearted:

noyes@Luke:18:2 @ saying, There was in a certain city a judge, who feared not God, nor regarded man.

noyes@Luke:18:3 @ And there was a widow in that city; and she kept coming to him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary!

noyes@Luke:18:4 @ And he would not for some time. But afterward he said within himself, Though I neither fear God, nor regard man,

noyes@Luke:18:5 @ yet, because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her; lest by coming for ever she weary me out.

noyes@Luke:18:6 @ And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

noyes@Luke:18:7 @ And will not God avenge his chosen, who cry to him day and night, though he be slow to punish in their behalf?

noyes@Luke:18:8 @ I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. But yet, when the Son of man cometh, will he find faith on the earth?

noyes@Luke:18:9 @ And to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised all others, he spoke this parable:

noyes@Luke:18:10 @ Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

noyes@Luke:18:11 @ The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself thus: O God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

noyes@Luke:18:12 @ I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I gain.

noyes@Luke:18:13 @ But the publican, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven; but smote his breast, saying, O God, be merciful to me a sinner!

noyes@Luke:18:14 @ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one that exalteth himself will be humbled; but he that humbleth himself will be exalted.

noyes@Luke:18:15 @ And they brought to him infants also, that he might touch them; and the disciples, on seeing it, rebuked them.

noyes@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called them to him, saying, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.

noyes@Luke:18:17 @ Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will not enter therein.

noyes@Luke:18:18 @ And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life?

noyes@Luke:18:19 @ And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God.

noyes@Luke:18:20 @ Thou knowest the commandments: "Do not commit adultery; Do not kill; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Honor thy father and thy mother."

noyes@Luke:18:21 @ And he said, All these have I kept from my youth.

noyes@Luke:18:22 @ And Jesus hearing this said to him, One thing thou still lackest: sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.

noyes@Luke:18:23 @ But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful; for he was very rich.

noyes@Luke:18:24 @ And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly do they that have riches enter the kingdom of God!

noyes@Luke:18:25 @ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

noyes@Luke:18:26 @ And those who heard this said, Who then can be saved?

noyes@Luke:18:27 @ But he said, What is impossible with men is possible with God.

noyes@Luke:18:28 @ Then Peter said, Lo! we left what we had, and followed thee.

noyes@Luke:18:29 @ And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There is no one that hath left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,

noyes@Luke:18:31 @ And taking the twelve aside, he said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that hath been written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished.

noyes@Luke:18:32 @ For he will be delivered up to the gentiles, and will be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon;

noyes@Luke:18:33 @ and they will scourge him, and put him to death; and the third day he will rise again.

noyes@Luke:18:34 @ And they understood none of these things; and the meaning of these words was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what was said.

noyes@Luke:18:35 @ And it came to pass, as he drew near to Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting by the wayside begging.

noyes@Luke:18:36 @ And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what this meant.

noyes@Luke:18:37 @ And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.

noyes@Luke:18:38 @ And he cried out, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!

noyes@Luke:18:39 @ And they who went before sharply bade him hold his peace. But he cried out the more, Son of David, have pity on me!

noyes@Luke:18:40 @ And Jesus stopped, and ordered him to be brought to him. And when he had come near, he asked him,

noyes@Luke:18:41 @ What dost thou wish me to do for thee? And he said, Lord, to restore my sight.

noyes@Luke:18:42 @ And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee.

noyes@Luke:18:43 @ And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, giving glory to God; and all the people on seeing it gave praise to God.

noyes@Luke:19:1 @ And he entered and was passing through Jericho.

noyes@Luke:19:2 @ And lo! a man named Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich.

noyes@Luke:19:3 @ And he sought to see Jesus, what sort of man he was; and he could not on account of the multitude; because he was small of stature.

noyes@Luke:19:4 @ And he ran on before, and climbed up a sycamore–tree to see him; for he was to pass that way.

noyes@Luke:19:5 @ And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and said to him, Zacchaeas, make haste and come down; for today I must abide at thy house.

noyes@Luke:19:6 @ And he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully.

noyes@Luke:19:7 @ And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, He hath gone in to be the guest of a sinner.

noyes@Luke:19:8 @ And Zacchaeus stood up, and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any one by false representation, I restore him four–fold.

noyes@Luke:19:9 @ And Jesus said to him, This day hath salvation come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;

noyes@Luke:19:10 @ for the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost.

noyes@Luke:19:11 @ And while they were hearing these things, he proceeded and spoke a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God would immediately appear.

noyes@Luke:19:12 @ He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

noyes@Luke:19:13 @ And he called his ten servants, and gave them ten pounds, and said to them, Trade with these, till I come.

noyes@Luke:19:14 @ But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.

noyes@Luke:19:15 @ And it came to pass, when he had returned, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants to whom he had given the money to be called to him, that he might know what each had gained by trading.

noyes@Luke:19:16 @ And the first came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

noyes@Luke:19:17 @ And he said to him, Well done, good servant! because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.

noyes@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

noyes@Luke:19:19 @ And he said also to this servant, And be thou over five cities.

noyes@Luke:19:20 @ And another came, saying, Lord, behold thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin.

noyes@Luke:19:21 @ For I feared thee, because thou art a harsh man; thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.

noyes@Luke:19:22 @ He saith to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked servant! thou knewest that I was a harsh man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow;

noyes@Luke:19:23 @ why then didst thou not put my money into a bank? Then I at my coming might have received it back with interest.

noyes@Luke:19:24 @ And he said to them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath the ten pounds.

noyes@Luke:19:25 @ (And they said to him, He hath ten pounds, Lord.)

noyes@Luke:19:26 @ I say to you, that to every one who hath, will be given; but from him that hath not, even what he hath will be taken away.

noyes@Luke:19:27 @ But as for those enemies of mine, who would not that I should reign over them, bring them here, and slay them before me.

noyes@Luke:19:28 @ And when he had thus spoken, he went forward, going up to Jerusalem.

noyes@Luke:19:29 @ And it came to pass, as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

noyes@Luke:19:30 @ saying, Go to the village over against us; on entering which ye will find a colt tied, whereon no man ever sat; and loose, and bring it.

noyes@Luke:19:31 @ And if any one ask you, Why are ye loosing it? ye shall say thus, The Lord hath need of it.

noyes@Luke:19:32 @ And they who were sent went and found just as he told them.

noyes@Luke:19:33 @ And as they were loosing the colt, its owners said to them, Why are ye loosing the colt?

noyes@Luke:19:34 @ And they said, The Lord hath need of it.

noyes@Luke:19:35 @ And they brought it to Jesus; and having thrown their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.

noyes@Luke:19:36 @ And as he went on, they spread their garments in the road.

noyes@Luke:19:37 @ And as he was drawing near, just at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the miracles which they had seen;

noyes@Luke:19:38 @ saying, Blessed be the King in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heavens!

noyes@Luke:19:39 @ And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.

noyes@Luke:19:40 @ And he answering said, I tell you, that if these are silent, the stones will cry out.

noyes@Luke:19:41 @ And when he came near, as he beheld the city, he wept over it,

noyes@Luke:19:42 @ saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, and that in this thy day, the things that concern thy peace! but now they are hidden from thine eyes.

noyes@Luke:19:43 @ For the days will come upon thee, when thine enemies will cast up a mound about thee, and compass thee round, and shut thee in on every side,

noyes@Luke:19:44 @ and will level thee with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they will not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

noyes@Luke:19:45 @ And entering the temple, he began to cast out those who sold,

noyes@Luke:19:46 @ saying to them, It is written, "And my house shall be a house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of robbers."

noyes@Luke:19:47 @ And he was teaching daily in the temple; but the chief priests, and the scribes, and the leading men of the people sought to destroy him.

noyes@Luke:19:48 @ And they could not find an opportunity of doing any thing; for all the people hung upon him, listening.

noyes@Luke:20:1 @ And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and publishing the good tidings, that the priests and the scribes with the elders came upon him,

noyes@Luke:20:2 @ and spoke to him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? Or who is he that gave thee this authority?

noyes@Luke:20:3 @ And he answering said to them, I also will ask you a question; and tell me:

noyes@Luke:20:4 @ The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?

noyes@Luke:20:5 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven, he will say, Why did ye not believe him?

noyes@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, From men, all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.

noyes@Luke:20:7 @ And they answered, that they did not know whence it was.

noyes@Luke:20:8 @ And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

noyes@Luke:20:9 @ And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time.

noyes@Luke:20:10 @ And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty–handed.

noyes@Luke:20:11 @ And he sent still another servant; and they beat him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty–handed.

noyes@Luke:20:12 @ And he went on to send a third; and they wounded him also, and cast him out.

noyes@Luke:20:13 @ And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.

noyes@Luke:20:14 @ But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may become ours.

noyes@Luke:20:15 @ So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What then will the lord of the vineyard do to them?

noyes@Luke:20:16 @ He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard this, they said, God forbid!

noyes@Luke:20:17 @ But he, looking upon them, said, What then is this which is written, "The stone which the builders rejected, the same hath become the corner–stone"?

noyes@Luke:20:18 @ Every one who falleth upon that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falleth, it will grind him to powder.

noyes@Luke:20:19 @ And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that hour, but they feared the people; for they knew that he spoke this parable against them.

noyes@Luke:20:20 @ And they kept watch on him, and sent forth spies feigning themselves to be righteous men, that they might take hold of his words, in order to deliver him up to the civil power and to the authority of the governor.

noyes@Luke:20:21 @ And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and hast no regard to the person of men, but teachest the way of God truly.

noyes@Luke:20:22 @ Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

noyes@Luke:20:23 @ But perceiving their craftiness, he said to them,

noyes@Luke:20:24 @ Show me a denary. Whose image and inscription hath it? And they answered and said, Caesar’s.

noyes@Luke:20:25 @ And he said to them, Render then to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.

noyes@Luke:20:26 @ And they could not take hold of his words before the people; and marveling at his answer, they held their peace.

noyes@Luke:20:27 @ Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to him, and asked him,

noyes@Luke:20:28 @ saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, "If a man’s brother die, having a wife, and the same die without children, his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother."

noyes@Luke:20:29 @ Now there were seven brothers; and the first took a wife and died childless.

noyes@Luke:20:30 @ And the second

noyes@Luke:20:31 @ and the third took her; and in like manner also the seven left no children, and died.

noyes@Luke:20:32 @ At last the woman also died.

noyes@Luke:20:33 @ In the resurrection then, of which of them is the woman the wife? for the seven had her for a wife.

noyes@Luke:20:34 @ And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry, and are given in marriage;

noyes@Luke:20:35 @ but they who have been accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage;

noyes@Luke:20:36 @ for they cannot die any more; for they are like the angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

noyes@Luke:20:37 @ But that the dead are raised, even Moses hath shown at the Bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

noyes@Luke:20:38 @ Now he is not a God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him.

noyes@Luke:20:39 @ Then some of the scribes answering, said, Teacher, thou hast well said.

noyes@Luke:20:40 @ For they dared no longer to ask him any question.

noyes@Luke:20:41 @ And he said to them, How is it that men say that the Christ is David’s son?

noyes@Luke:20:42 @ For David himself saith in the book of Psalms, "The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

noyes@Luke:20:43 @ till I make thine enemies thy footstool."

noyes@Luke:20:44 @ David then calleth him lord; and how is he his son?

noyes@Luke:20:45 @ And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,

noyes@Luke:20:46 @ Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and love salutations in the markets, and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the first places at feasts;

noyes@Luke:20:47 @ who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers. These will receive a far greater condemnation.

noyes@Luke:21:1 @ And he looked up and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.

noyes@Luke:21:2 @ And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.

noyes@Luke:21:3 @ And he said, In truth I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all.

noyes@Luke:21:4 @ For all these out of their abundance cast in to the offerings; but she out of her penury cast in all the living that she had.

noyes@Luke:21:5 @ And as some were saying of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones, and sacred gifts, he said,

noyes@Luke:21:6 @ As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in which there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be throw down.

noyes@Luke:21:7 @ And they asked him, saying, Teacher, when then will these things be? and what will be the sign when these things are about to come to pass?

noyes@Luke:21:8 @ And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived. For many will come in my name, saying, I am He, and the time is at hand. Go not after them.

noyes@Luke:21:9 @ And when ye hear of wars and tumults, be not terrified; for these things must first come to pass; but not immediately is the end.

noyes@Luke:21:10 @ Then he said to them, Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;

noyes@Luke:21:11 @ and there will be great earthquakes, and in divers places famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.

noyes@Luke:21:12 @ But before all these things they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues, and into prisons, and bringing you before kings and governors on account of my name.

noyes@Luke:21:14 @ Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate l beforehand what ye shall answer.

noyes@Luke:21:38 @ And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.

noyes@Luke:22:1 @ Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the passover, was drawing near;

noyes@Luke:22:2 @ and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

noyes@Luke:22:3 @ And Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.

noyes@Luke:22:4 @ And he went away, and consulted with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him up to them.

noyes@Luke:22:5 @ And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

noyes@Luke:22:6 @ And he agreed with them, and sought a good opportunity to deliver him up to them in the absence of the multitude.

noyes@Luke:22:7 @ Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed;

noyes@Luke:22:8 @ and he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat it.

noyes@Luke:22:9 @ And they said to him, Where wilt thou that we make it ready?

noyes@Luke:22:10 @ And he said to them, Lo! when ye have entered the city, there will meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he goeth in;

noyes@Luke:22:11 @ and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest–chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

noyes@Luke:22:12 @ And he will show you a large upper room furnished; there make ready.

noyes@Luke:22:13 @ And they went and found as he had said to them; and they made ready the passover.

noyes@Luke:22:14 @ And when the hour had come, he placed himself at table, and the apostles with him.

noyes@Luke:22:15 @ And he said to them, Earnestly have I desired to eat this passover with you, before I suffer.

noyes@Luke:22:16 @ For I say to you, that I shall eat it no more, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

noyes@Luke:22:17 @ And he took a cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves.

noyes@Luke:22:18 @ For I say to you, that I shall not drink henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall have come.

noyes@Luke:22:19 @ And he took a loaf, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me.

noyes@Luke:22:20 @ And in like manner he took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is about to be shed for you.

noyes@Luke:22:21 @ But lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

noyes@Luke:22:22 @ For the Son of man indeed goeth away, as it hath been determined; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed.

noyes@Luke:22:23 @ And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that was about to do this.

noyes@Luke:22:24 @ And there arose also a contention among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

noyes@Luke:22:25 @ And he said to them, The kings of the nations rule as lords over them, and they who exercise authority over them are called benefactors.

noyes@Luke:22:26 @ But it is not to be so with you; but let the greatest among you be as the youngest; and he that is chief, as he that serveth.

noyes@Luke:22:27 @ For which is greater? he who reclineth at the table, or he who serveth? Is not he that reclineth at the table? But I am in the midst of you as he who serveth.

noyes@Luke:22:28 @ Ye however are they who have continued steadfastly with me in my trials.

noyes@Luke:22:29 @ And I appoint to you a kingdom, as my Father appointed to me;

noyes@Luke:22:30 @ that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

noyes@Luke:22:31 @ Simon, Simon, lo! Satan hath asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat.

noyes@Luke:22:32 @ But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not. And do thou, when thou hast returned to me, strengthen thy brethren.

noyes@Luke:22:33 @ And he said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee both to prison and to death.

noyes@Luke:22:34 @ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, a cock will not crow this day, till thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.

noyes@Luke:22:35 @ And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, or bag, or sandals, were ye in need of anything? And they said, Of nothing. Then he said to them,

noyes@Luke:22:36 @ But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag; and he that hath not, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword.

noyes@Luke:22:37 @ For I say to you, that this which is written must be accomplished in me: "And he was reckoned among transgressors." For that which concerneth me also hath an end.

noyes@Luke:22:38 @ And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said to him, It is enough!

noyes@Luke:22:39 @ And going out, he went, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him.

noyes@Luke:22:40 @ And when he was at the place, he said to them, Pray that ye may not enter into temptation.

noyes@Luke:22:41 @ And he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw; and kneeling down he prayed,

noyes@Luke:22:42 @ saying, Father, if thou art willing to remove this cup from me––yet not my will, but thine be done!

noyes@Luke:22:43 @ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

noyes@Luke:22:44 @ And being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly. And his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling to the ground.

noyes@Luke:22:45 @ And rising up from prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,

noyes@Luke:22:46 @ and said to them, Why sleep ye? Rise, and pray that ye may not enter into temptation.

noyes@Luke:22:47 @ While he was yet speaking, lo! a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, was at the head of them; and he drew near to Jesus to kiss him.

noyes@Luke:22:48 @ But Jesus said to him, Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss?

noyes@Luke:22:49 @ And they who were about him, seeing what would follow, said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

noyes@Luke:22:50 @ And one of them smote the servant of the high–priest, and cut off his right ear.

noyes@Luke:22:51 @ But Jesus answering said, Permit thus far; and touched his ear, and healed him.

noyes@Luke:22:52 @ Then Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders who had come to him, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs;

noyes@Luke:22:53 @ when I was daily with you in the temple, ye did not put forth your hands against me; but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

noyes@Luke:22:54 @ And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the high–priest. And Peter followed afar off.

noyes@Luke:22:55 @ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down among them.

noyes@Luke:22:56 @ But a certain maid–servant saw him sitting at the fire, and steadily looking at him said, This man also was with him.

noyes@Luke:22:57 @ And he denied him, saying, Woman, I do not know him.

noyes@Luke:22:58 @ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

noyes@Luke:22:59 @ And in about one hour’s time, another confidently affirmed, saying, In truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilaean.

noyes@Luke:22:60 @ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crew.

noyes@Luke:22:61 @ And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before a cock crows this day, thou wilt thrice deny me.

noyes@Luke:22:62 @ And he went out, and wept bitterly.

noyes@Luke:22:63 @ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him;

noyes@Luke:22:64 @ and having blindfolded him, they asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?

noyes@Luke:22:65 @ And many other things did they scoffingly say against him.

noyes@Luke:22:66 @ And when it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together, and brought him before their council, saying,

noyes@Luke:22:67 @ If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe;

noyes@Luke:22:68 @ and if I ask, ye will not answer.

noyes@Luke:22:69 @ But from this time the Son of man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.

noyes@Luke:22:70 @ Then they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say what is true; for I am.

noyes@Luke:22:71 @ And they said, What further need have we of testimony? For we have ourselves heard from his own mouth.

noyes@Luke:23:1 @ And the whole assemblage of them arose, and carried him before Pilate.

noyes@Luke:23:2 @ And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Christ, the king.

noyes@Luke:23:3 @ And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews? And he answering said to him, I am.

noyes@Luke:23:4 @ And Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowd, I find nothing criminal in this man.

noyes@Luke:23:5 @ But they were the more violent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judaea, beginning from Galilee, even to this place.

noyes@Luke:23:6 @ And when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilaean.

noyes@Luke:23:7 @ And on learning that he belonged to Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was himself also at Jerusalem at this time.

noyes@Luke:23:8 @ Now Herod, when he saw Jesus, was very glad; for he had been wishing to see him for a long time, because he had heard about him; and he hoped to see some sign wrought by him.

noyes@Luke:23:9 @ And he put many questions to him; but he gave him no answer.

noyes@Luke:23:10 @ And the chief priests and scribes stood vehemently accusing him.

noyes@Luke:23:11 @ And Herod also with his guard of soldiers set him at nought and mocked him, and having arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, sent him back to Pilate.

noyes@Luke:23:12 @ And Herod and Pilate on that day became friends with each other; for they had before been at enmity.

noyes@Luke:23:13 @ And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

noyes@Luke:23:14 @ said to them, Ye have brought to me this man, as one that perverteth the people; and behold, I have examined him before you, and have found nothing in this man to sustain the charges which ye bring against him.

noyes@Luke:23:15 @ No, nor yet Herod; for he hath sent him back to us; and lo! nothing deserving death hath been done by him.

noyes@Luke:23:16 @ I will therefore chastise, and release him.

noyes@Luke:23:17 @ Now it was necessary for him to release to them one at the feast.

noyes@Luke:23:18 @ And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas;

noyes@Luke:23:19 @ who, for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison.

noyes@Luke:23:20 @ But Pilate again spoke to them, wishing to release Jesus.

noyes@Luke:23:21 @ But they cried out, saying, Crucify, crucify him!

noyes@Luke:23:22 @ And he said to them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found him guilty of nothing deserving death; I will therefore chastise, and release him.

noyes@Luke:23:23 @ But they were urgent with loud voices, demanding that he should he crucified; and their voices prevailed.

noyes@Luke:23:24 @ And Pilate gave sentence that what they demanded should be done.

noyes@Luke:23:25 @ And he released him who for sedition and murder had been cast into prison, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.

noyes@Luke:23:26 @ And when they had led him away, they laid hold on one Simon a Cyrenaean, coming out of the country, and laid on him the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.

noyes@Luke:23:27 @ And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who were bewailing and lamenting him.

noyes@Luke:23:28 @ But Jesus turning to them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me; but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

noyes@Luke:23:29 @ For lo! the days are coming, in which they will say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never gave nourishment.

noyes@Luke:23:30 @ Then will they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

noyes@Luke:23:31 @ For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?

noyes@Luke:23:32 @ And two others, who were malefactors, were led with him to be put to death.

noyes@Luke:23:33 @ And when they had come to the place which is called the Skull, they there crucified him, and the malefactors; one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

noyes@Luke:23:34 @ And Jesus said, Father, forgive them! for they know not what they do. And they divided his garments, casting lots.

noyes@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood looking on; and the rulers sneered, saying, Others he saved; let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, the chosen one.

noyes@Luke:23:36 @ And the soldiers also came up to him and made sport of him, offering him vinegar,

noyes@Luke:23:37 @ and saying, If thou art the king of the Jews, save thyself.

noyes@Luke:23:38 @ There was also an inscription over him: "This is the king of the Jews."

noyes@Luke:23:39 @ And one of the crucified malefactors railed at him, saying, Art thou not the Christ? save thyself and us.

noyes@Luke:23:40 @ But the other answering said, rebuking him, Dost not thou fear God, since thou art in the same condemnation?

noyes@Luke:23:41 @ And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done nothing amiss.

noyes@Luke:23:42 @ And he said, Jesus, remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom.

noyes@Luke:23:43 @ And he said to him, Truly do I say to thee, Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise.

noyes@Luke:23:44 @ And it was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour,

noyes@Luke:23:45 @ the sun having failed; and the veil of the temple was rent in two.

noyes@Luke:23:46 @ And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit! And having said this, he expired.

noyes@Luke:23:47 @ And the centurion, seeing what was done, gave glory to God, saying, Surely this was a righteous man.

noyes@Luke:23:48 @ And all the multitudes that had come together to that sight, when they had seen the things which were done, returned, beating their breasts.

noyes@Luke:23:49 @ And all his acquaintances stood at a distance, and women that came with him from Galilee, beholding these things.

noyes@Luke:23:50 @ And lo! a man named Joseph, of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, being a councilor, and a good and righteous man,

noyes@Luke:23:51 @ who was not consenting to their purpose and deed, and was waiting for the kingdom of God,––

noyes@Luke:23:52 @ this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

noyes@Luke:23:53 @ And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a tomb that was hewn out of the rock; wherein no one had yet lain.

noyes@Luke:23:54 @ And it was the day of preparation, and the sabbath was now coming on.

noyes@Luke:23:55 @ And the women also, who had come with him from Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.

noyes@Luke:23:56 @ And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and on the sabbath they rested, according to the commandment.

noyes@Luke:24:1 @ Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.

noyes@Luke:24:2 @ And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb;

noyes@Luke:24:3 @ and on entering they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

noyes@Luke:24:4 @ And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed about this, lo! two men stood by them in glittering apparel;

noyes@Luke:24:5 @ and when they were terrified, and bowed their faces to the earth, the men said to them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

noyes@Luke:24:6 @ He is not here, but hath risen. Remember how be spoke to you while yet in Galilee,

noyes@Luke:24:7 @ saying, The Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinners, and be crucified, and rise again on the third day.

noyes@Luke:24:8 @ And they remembered his words.

noyes@Luke:24:9 @ And returning from the tomb, they told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.

noyes@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary the Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James; and the other women with them told these things to the apostles.

noyes@Luke:24:11 @ And these words seemed to them as an idle tale, and they did not believe them.

noyes@Luke:24:13 @ And lo! two of them were going the same day to a village called Emmaus, distant a hundred and sixty furlongs from Jerusalem.

noyes@Luke:24:14 @ And they were conversing together about all those things which had taken place.

noyes@Luke:24:15 @ And it came to pass, while they were conversing and reasoning, that Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

noyes@Luke:24:16 @ But their eyes were restrained from knowing him.

noyes@Luke:24:17 @ And he said to them, What discourse is this which ye have one with another, as ye are walking? And they stood sad.

noyes@Luke:24:18 @ And one, whose name was Cleopas, answering said to him, Art thou the only sojourner in Jerusalem that doth not know the things which have come to pass there in these days?

noyes@Luke:24:19 @ And he said to them, What things? And they said to him, The things relating to Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in word and deed before God and all the people;

noyes@Luke:24:20 @ and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

noyes@Luke:24:21 @ But we are hoping that it is he who is to redeem Israel; moreover, besides all this, it is the third day since these things were done.

noyes@Luke:24:22 @ And furthermore certain women of our company have amazed us; for going early to the tomb,

noyes@Luke:24:23 @ they did not find his body, and came, saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

noyes@Luke:24:24 @ And some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it to be as the women had said; but him they saw not.

noyes@Luke:24:25 @ And he said to them, O dull of apprehension, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!

noyes@Luke:24:26 @ Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things, and enter into his glory?

noyes@Luke:24:27 @ And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

noyes@Luke:24:28 @ And they drew near to the village whither they were going; and he made as though he would go further.

noyes@Luke:24:29 @ But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us, for it is towards evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in to stay with them.

noyes@Luke:24:30 @ And it came to pass, as he was at table with them, that he took the bread, and blessed it, and broke and gave it to them.

noyes@Luke:24:31 @ And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

noyes@Luke:24:32 @ And they said one to another, Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked with us on the way, while he opened to us the Scriptures?

noyes@Luke:24:33 @ And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

noyes@Luke:24:34 @ saying, The Lord hath risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

noyes@Luke:24:35 @ And they told what had happened on the way, and how he became known to them in the breaking of the bread.

noyes@Luke:24:36 @ And while they were thus speaking, he himself stood in the midst of them.

noyes@Luke:24:37 @ But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they beheld a spirit.

noyes@Luke:24:38 @ And he said to them, Why are ye troubled? and why do doubts arise in your hearts?

noyes@Luke:24:39 @ See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

noyes@Luke:24:41 @ And while they still disbelieved for joy, and wondered, he said to them, Have ye anything here to eat?

noyes@Luke:24:42 @ And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish.

noyes@Luke:24:43 @ And he took and ate it before them.

noyes@Luke:24:44 @ And he said to them, These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled which are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, concerning me.

noyes@Luke:24:45 @ Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the Scriptures.

noyes@Luke:24:46 @ And he said to them, Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer, and should rise from the dead on the third day,

noyes@Luke:24:47 @ and that repentance for the remission of sins should be preached in his name among all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

noyes@Luke:24:48 @ Ye are witnesses of these things.

noyes@Luke:24:49 @ And I send forth upon you that which hath been promised by my Father; but do ye tarry in the city, until ye are endued with power from on high.

noyes@Luke:24:50 @ And he led them out as far as to Bethany; and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.

noyes@Luke:24:51 @ And it came to pass, while he blessed them, that he parted from them.

noyes@Luke:24:52 @ And they returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

noyes@Luke:24:53 @ and were continually in the temple, praising God.

noyes@John:1:1 @ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

noyes@John:1:2 @ The same was in the beginning with God.

noyes@John:1:3 @ All things were made through him; and without him was nothing made that hath been made.

noyes@John:1:4 @ In him is life; and the life was the light of men.

noyes@John:1:5 @ And the light hath been shining in the darkness; and the darkness received it not.

noyes@John:1:6 @ There was a man, sent from God, whose name was John.

noyes@John:1:7 @ He came as a witness, to bear witness of the light, that through him all might believe.

noyes@John:1:8 @ He was not the light, but came to bear witness of the light.

noyes@John:1:9 @ The true light, which enlighteneth every man, was coming into the world.

noyes@John:1:10 @ He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world knew him not.

noyes@John:1:11 @ He came to his own, and his own received him not.

noyes@John:1:12 @ But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become children of God,––to those who believed in his name;

noyes@John:1:13 @ who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

noyes@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; and we beheld his glory, a glory as of an only begotten of a father.

noyes@John:1:15 @ John beareth witness of him, and crieth, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that cometh after me hath gone before me; for he was before me.

noyes@John:1:16 @ For out of his fullness have we all received, and grace upon grace.

noyes@John:1:17 @ For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

noyes@John:1:18 @ No one hath ever seen God; the only begotten God, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath made him known.

noyes@John:1:19 @ And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, Who art thou?

noyes@John:1:20 @ And he declared, and did not deny; and he declared, I am not the Christ.

noyes@John:1:21 @ And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he said, I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered, No.

noyes@John:1:22 @ They said therefore to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what sayest thou of thyself?

noyes@John:1:23 @ He said, I am "a voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord," as said Isaiah the prophet.

noyes@John:1:24 @ And they were sent from the Pharisees;

noyes@John:1:25 @ and they asked him and said to him, Why then dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?

noyes@John:1:26 @ John answered them, saying, I baptize in water. There standeth one among you whom ye know not,

noyes@John:1:27 @ he who cometh after me, the latchet of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose.

noyes@John:1:28 @ These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

noyes@John:1:29 @ The next day he seeth Jesus coming to him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world!

noyes@John:1:30 @ This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man, who hath gone before me; for he was before me.

noyes@John:1:31 @ And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, therefore I came baptizing in water.

noyes@John:1:32 @ And John bore witness, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it abode upon him.

noyes@John:1:33 @ And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize in water, the same said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit.

noyes@John:1:34 @ And I have seen and have borne witness, that this is the Son of God.

noyes@John:1:35 @ On the morrow John was again standing, and two of his disciples;

noyes@John:1:36 @ and looking upon Jesus as he was walking, he saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!

noyes@John:1:37 @ The two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.

noyes@John:1:38 @ Jesus turning and seeing them following, saith to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi, (that is to say, when interpreted, Teacher,) where dost thou dwell?

noyes@John:1:39 @ He saith to them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he dwelt; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.

noyes@John:1:40 @ One of the two who heard what John said, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

noyes@John:1:41 @ He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah; (which is, when interpreted, the Christ.)

noyes@John:1:42 @ He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.)

noyes@John:1:43 @ On the morrow he determined to go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him, Follow me.

noyes@John:1:44 @ Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

noyes@John:1:45 @ Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets wrote, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.

noyes@John:1:46 @ And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see.

noyes@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile.

noyes@John:1:48 @ Nathanael saith to him, Whence dost thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig–tree, I saw thee.

noyes@John:1:49 @ Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.

noyes@John:1:50 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig–tree, dost thou believe? Thou shalt see greater things than these.

noyes@John:1:51 @ And he saith to him, Truly, truly do I say to you, Ye will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

noyes@John:2:1 @ And on the third day there was a marriage–feast in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.

noyes@John:2:2 @ And both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the feast.

noyes@John:2:3 @ And they had no wine, because the wine of the feast had failed. Then the mother of Jesus saith to him, There is no wine.

noyes@John:2:4 @ Jesus saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? My hour is not yet come.

noyes@John:2:5 @ His mother saith to the servants, Whatever he saith to you, do it.

noyes@John:2:6 @ Now there were set there six water–pots of stone, in conformity with the Jews’ custom of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece.

noyes@John:2:7 @ Jesus saith to them, Fill the water–pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

noyes@John:2:8 @ And he saith to them, Draw out now, and bear it to the master of the feast. And they bore it.

noyes@John:2:9 @ But when the master of the feast tasted the water that had been made wine, not knowing whence it was, but the servants who drew the water knew, he called the bridegroom

noyes@John:2:10 @ and said to him, Every man setteth on the good wine first, and when men have drunk freely, that which is worse. Thou hast kept the good wine until now.

noyes@John:2:11 @ This beginning of the signs Jesus made in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

noyes@John:2:12 @ After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; and they abode there not many days.

noyes@John:2:13 @ And the passover of the Jews was near; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

noyes@John:2:14 @ And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money–changers sitting.

noyes@John:2:15 @ And having made a scourge of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and poured out the money of the exchangers, and overthrew the tables;

noyes@John:2:16 @ and said to those who sold the doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house a house of merchandise.

noyes@John:2:17 @ His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for thy house will consume me."

noyes@John:2:18 @ The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign dost thou show us, seeing thou doest these things?

noyes@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

noyes@John:2:20 @ Then said the Jews, Forty–six years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days?

noyes@John:2:21 @ But he spoke of the temple of his body.

noyes@John:2:22 @ When therefore he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken.

noyes@John:2:23 @ And when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, at the feast, many believed in his name, when they saw his signs which he wrought.

noyes@John:2:24 @ But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men;

noyes@John:2:25 @ and had no need that any one should testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.

noyes@John:3:1 @ And there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

noyes@John:3:2 @ This man came to him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come as a teacher from God; for no one can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him.

noyes@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

noyes@John:3:4 @ Nicodemus saith to him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother’s womb a second time, and be born?

noyes@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.

noyes@John:3:6 @ That which is born of the flesh, is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.

noyes@John:3:7 @ Marvel not that I said to thee, Ye must be born again.

noyes@John:3:8 @ The wind bloweth where it will; and thou hearest the sound thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

noyes@John:3:9 @ Nicodemus answered and said to him, How can these things be?

noyes@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Art thou the teacher of Israel, and understandest not these things?

noyes@John:3:11 @ Truly, truly do I say to thee, We speak that which we know, and testify that which we have seen; and ye receive not our testimony.

noyes@John:3:12 @ If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how will ye believe if I tell you heavenly things?

noyes@John:3:13 @ And no one hath ascended into heaven, but he who came down from heaven, even the Son of man.

noyes@John:3:14 @ And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up

noyes@John:3:15 @ that every one who believeth in him may have everlasting life.

noyes@John:3:16 @ For God so loved the world, that he gave the only begotten Son, that every one who believeth in him may not perish, but may have everlasting life.

noyes@John:3:17 @ For God sent not the Son into the world to condemn the world, but that through him the world might be saved.

noyes@John:3:18 @ He that believeth in him is not condemned; he that believeth not hath already been condemned, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

noyes@John:3:19 @ And this is the condemnation, that the light hath come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their deeds were evil.

noyes@John:3:20 @ For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

noyes@John:3:21 @ But he that doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

noyes@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and his disciples came into the land of Judaea; and there he remained with them, and baptized.

noyes@John:3:23 @ And John also was baptizing in Ænon, near Salim, because there was much water there; and they came, and were baptized.

noyes@John:3:24 @ For John was not yet thrown into prison.

noyes@John:3:25 @ Then there arose a question on the part of John’s disciples with a Jew about purifying.

noyes@John:3:26 @ And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, he baptizeth, and all men are going to him.

noyes@John:3:27 @ John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, unless it be given him from heaven.

noyes@John:3:28 @ Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I was sent before that man.

noyes@John:3:29 @ He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. This my joy then hath become full.

noyes@John:3:30 @ He must increase, but I must decrease.

noyes@John:3:31 @ He that cometh from above is above all. He that is from the earth is earthly, and speaketh earthly things; he that cometh from heaven

noyes@John:3:32 @ testifieth what he hath seen and heard; and no one receiveth his testimony.

noyes@John:3:33 @ He that hath received his testimony hath set his seal that God is true.

noyes@John:3:34 @ For he whom God sent speaketh the words of God; for he giveth not the Spirit by measure.

noyes@John:3:35 @ The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.

noyes@John:3:36 @ He that believeth in the Son hath everlasting life; and he that disobeyeth the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.

noyes@John:4:1 @ When therefore Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

noyes@John:4:2 @ (though Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples,)

noyes@John:4:3 @ he left Judaea, and went again to Galilee.

noyes@John:4:4 @ And he must necessarily pass through Samaria.

noyes@John:4:5 @ He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the piece of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

noyes@John:4:6 @ And Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with the journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

noyes@John:4:7 @ There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.

noyes@John:4:8 @ For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

noyes@John:4:9 @ The Samaritan woman saith to him, How is it that thou, who art a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

noyes@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

noyes@John:4:11 @ The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Whence hast thou the living water?

noyes@John:4:12 @ Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?

noyes@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered and said to her, Every one that drinketh of this water, will thirst again;

noyes@John:4:14 @ but whoever drinketh of the water that I will give him, will never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become within him a well of water springing up to everlasting life.

noyes@John:4:15 @ The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.

noyes@John:4:16 @ He saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

noyes@John:4:17 @ The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidst well, that thou hast no husband.

noyes@John:4:18 @ For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband; in this thou hast spoken truly.

noyes@John:4:19 @ The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

noyes@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshipped on this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

noyes@John:4:21 @ Jesus saith to her, Believe me, woman, the hour is coming, when ye shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

noyes@John:4:22 @ Ye worship that which ye know not; we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

noyes@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for such worshippers the Father seeketh.

noyes@John:4:24 @ God is a spirit; and they who worship must worship in spirit and in truth.

noyes@John:4:25 @ The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh (who is called Christ); when he hath come, he will tell us all things.

noyes@John:4:26 @ Jesus saith to her, I who speak to thee am he.

noyes@John:4:27 @ And upon this his disciples came, and marveled that he was talking with a woman. Yet no one said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?

noyes@John:4:28 @ The woman then left her water–pot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,

noyes@John:4:29 @ Come, see a man who told me all things which I have done. Is this the Christ?

noyes@John:4:30 @ They went out of the city, and came to him.

noyes@John:4:31 @ In the mean while the disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, eat.

noyes@John:4:32 @ But he said to them, I have food to eat that ye know not of.

noyes@John:4:33 @ The disciples therefore said to one another, Hath any one brought him anything to eat?

noyes@John:4:34 @ Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

noyes@John:4:35 @ Do ye not say, There are yet four months, and the harvest cometh? Lo! I say to you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.

noyes@John:4:36 @ Already is the reaper receiving wages, and gathering fruit unto everlasting life; that both the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.

noyes@John:4:37 @ And herein is fulfilled the true saying, One soweth, and another reapeth.

noyes@John:4:38 @ I have sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored. Others have labored, and ye have entered into their labor.

noyes@John:4:39 @ And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in him because of the words of the woman, who testified, He told me all things which I have done.

noyes@John:4:40 @ When therefore the Samaritans came to him, they besought him to remain with them; and he remained there two days.

noyes@John:4:41 @ And many more believed on account of his word;

noyes@John:4:42 @ and said to the woman, No longer do we believe on account of what thou hast told us; for we have ourselves heard him, and know that this is in truth the Saviour of the world.

noyes@John:4:43 @ And after the two days he went from that place into Galilee.

noyes@John:4:44 @ For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.

noyes@John:4:45 @ When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also went to the feast.

noyes@John:4:46 @ So he came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick, at Capernaum.

noyes@John:4:47 @ He, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to him, and asked him to go down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

noyes@John:4:48 @ Then Jesus said to him, Unless ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.

noyes@John:4:49 @ The nobleman saith to him, Sir, come down before my child die.

noyes@John:4:50 @ Jesus saith to him, Go; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and went away.

noyes@John:4:51 @ And as he was now going down, the servants met him, and brought word that his child was living.

noyes@John:4:52 @ Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to mend. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

noyes@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was in the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is living. And he himself believed, and his whole house.

noyes@John:4:54 @ This again, a second sign, Jesus wrought, when he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.

noyes@John:5:1 @ After these things there was the feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

noyes@John:5:2 @ Now there is at Jerusalem, by the sheep–gate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha, having five porches.

noyes@John:5:3 @ In these were lying a multitude of diseased persons, blind, lame, withered.

noyes@John:5:5 @ And a certain man was there, who had had his infirmity thirty–eight years.

noyes@John:5:6 @ Jesus saw this man lying there, and knowing that he had been for a long time diseased, saith to him, Dost thou wish to be made well?

noyes@John:5:7 @ The diseased man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool; but while I am coming, another goeth down before me.

noyes@John:5:8 @ Jesus saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

noyes@John:5:9 @ And immediately the man was made well, and took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the sabbath.

noyes@John:5:10 @ The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath; and it is not lawful for thee to take up the bed.

noyes@John:5:11 @ He answered them, He that made me well, the same said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk. T

noyes@John:5:12 @ hey asked him, Who is the man that said to thee, Take up, and walk?

noyes@John:5:13 @ But the diseased man knew not who it was; for Jesus had withdrawn himself, there being a crowd in the place.

noyes@John:5:14 @ Afterwards Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art made well; sin no more, lest something worse befall thee.

noyes@John:5:15 @ The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

noyes@John:5:16 @ And on this account the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.

noyes@John:5:17 @ But he answered them, My Father is working up to this time, and I work.

noyes@John:5:18 @ On this account the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath, but also said that God was his own Father, making himself equal with God.

noyes@John:5:19 @ Then answered Jesus and said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing; for whatever He doeth, these things the Son also doeth in like manner;

noyes@John:5:20 @ for the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things which he himself doeth; and greater works than these will he show him, so that ye will wonder.

noyes@John:5:21 @ For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth them life, so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.

noyes@John:5:22 @ For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgment to the Son;

noyes@John:5:23 @ that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son, honoreth not the Father, who sent him.

noyes@John:5:24 @ Truly, truly do I say to you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and cometh not into condemnation, but hath passed out of death into life.

noyes@John:5:25 @ Truly, truly do I say to you, The hour is coming and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear will live.

noyes@John:5:26 @ For as the Father hath life in himself, so did he give to the Son also to have life in himself.

noyes@John:5:27 @ And he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.

noyes@John:5:28 @ Marvel not at this; for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,

noyes@John:5:29 @ and will come forth, they that have done good, to a resurrection of life; they that have done evil, to a resurrection of condemnation.

noyes@John:5:30 @ I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.

noyes@John:5:31 @ If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

noyes@John:5:32 @ There is another who beareth witness of me; and ye know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

noyes@John:5:33 @ Ye have sent to John, and he hath borne witness to the truth.

noyes@John:5:34 @ But the testimony which I receive is not from man; but these things I say, that ye may be saved.

noyes@John:5:35 @ He was the burning and shining lamp: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.

noyes@John:5:36 @ But the testimony which I have, is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father hath given me to perform, the works themselves which I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.

noyes@John:5:37 @ And the Father who sent me, he hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.

noyes@John:5:38 @ And ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he sent, him ye believe not.

noyes@John:5:39 @ Ye search the Scriptures, because ye yourselves think that in them ye have everlasting life; and it is they which testify of me;

noyes@John:5:40 @ and ye are not willing to come to me, that ye may have life.

noyes@John:5:41 @ I receive not honor from men;

noyes@John:5:42 @ but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

noyes@John:5:43 @ I have come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will receive.

noyes@John:5:44 @ How can ye believe while ye receive honor from one another, and seek not the honor that is from him who alone is God?

noyes@John:5:45 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye have placed your hope.

noyes@John:5:46 @ For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.

noyes@John:5:47 @ But if ye do not believe his writings, how will ye believe my words?

noyes@John:6:1 @ After these things Jesus went away across the lake of Galilee, that of Tiberias.

noyes@John:6:2 @ And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the signs which he wrought on the diseased.

noyes@John:6:3 @ And Jesus went up into the mountain, and sat there with his disciples.

noyes@John:6:4 @ And the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.

noyes@John:6:5 @ Jesus then lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great crowd was coming to him, saith to Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat?

noyes@John:6:6 @ But this he said to try him; for he himself knew what he was going to do.

noyes@John:6:7 @ Philip answered him, Two hundred denaries’ worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that each one may take a tittle.

noyes@John:6:8 @ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith to him,

noyes@John:6:9 @ There is a lad here, who hath five barley–loaves, and two small fishes; but what are they among so many?

noyes@John:6:10 @ Jesus said, Make the men lie down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men lay down, in number about five thousand.

noyes@John:6:11 @ Jesus then took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed to those that were lying down; in like manner also of the fishes, as much as they desired.

noyes@John:6:12 @ And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain over, that nothing may be lost.

noyes@John:6:13 @ So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley–loaves, which remained over and above to those that had eaten.

noyes@John:6:14 @ The men therefore seeing the sign which he wrought, said, This is truly the prophet that was to come into the world.

noyes@John:6:15 @ Jesus therefore, knowing that they were about to come and take him by force to make him a king, withdrew again to the mountain alone.

noyes@John:6:16 @ But when evening came, his disciples went down to the lake,

noyes@John:6:17 @ and having gone on board a boat, were going over the lake to Capernaum. And darkness had overtaken them, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

noyes@John:6:18 @ And as a strong wind was blowing, the waves ran high.

noyes@John:6:19 @ When therefore they had rowed about twenty–five or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the lake, and drawing near the boat; and they were afraid.

noyes@John:6:20 @ But he saith to them, It is I, be not afraid.

noyes@John:6:21 @ Then they were willing to receive him into the boat; and immediately the boat was at the land whither they were going.

noyes@John:6:22 @ The day following, the multitude which stood on the other side of the lake having seen that there was no other boat there but one, and that Jesus did not go with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples went away alone,

noyes@John:6:23 @ (but there came other boats from Tiberias near the place where they ate the bread, when the Lord had given thanks;)

noyes@John:6:24 @ when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus was not there nor his disciples, they went on board the boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

noyes@John:6:25 @ And having found him on the other side of the lake, they said to him, Rabbi, when didst thou come hither?

noyes@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them and said, Truly, truly do I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the loaves, and were filled.

noyes@John:6:27 @ Labor not for the food that perisheth, but for the food that endureth to everlasting life, which the Son of man giveth to you; for on him hath the Father set his seal, even God.

noyes@John:6:28 @ Then they said to him, What are we to do, that we may work the works of God?

noyes@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe in him whom he sent.

noyes@John:6:30 @ They said therefore to him, What sign doest thou, that we may see, and believe thee? What dost thou work?

noyes@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written, "He gave them bread from heaven to eat."

noyes@John:6:32 @ Jesus therefore said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, Moses hath not given you the bread from heaven; but my Father is giving you the true bread from heaven.

noyes@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is that which is coming down from heaven, and giving life to the world.

noyes@John:6:34 @ They said therefore to him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

noyes@John:6:35 @ Jesus therefore said to them, I am the bread of life; he that cometh to me will not hunger; and he that believeth in me will never thirst.

noyes@John:6:36 @ But I said to you, that ye have even seen, and do not believe.

noyes@John:6:37 @ All that the Father giveth me will come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out;

noyes@John:6:38 @ for I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.

noyes@John:6:39 @ And this is the will of him that sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up in the last day.

noyes@John:6:40 @ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who looketh on the Son and believeth in him, shall have everlasting life; and I will raise him up in the last day.

noyes@John:6:41 @ The Jews therefore murmured about him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven;

noyes@John:6:42 @ and they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, one whose father and mother we know? How is it then that this man saith, I have come down from heaven?

noyes@John:6:43 @ Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves.

noyes@John:6:44 @ No one can come to me, unless the Father, who sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day.

noyes@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, "And they shall all be taught of God." Every one that hath heard the Father, and hath learnt from him, cometh to me.

noyes@John:6:46 @ Not that any one hath seen the Father, but he who is from God; he hath seen the Father.

noyes@John:6:47 @ Truly, truly do I say to you, He that believeth hath everlasting life.

noyes@John:6:48 @ I am the bread of life.

noyes@John:6:49 @ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and died.

noyes@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eat of my bread, he will live for ever. Yea, and the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.

noyes@John:6:52 @ The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

noyes@John:6:53 @ Jesus therefore said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, Unless ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

noyes@John:6:54 @ He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood hath everlasting life; and I will raise him up in the last day.

noyes@John:6:55 @ For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

noyes@John:6:56 @ He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood dwelleth in me, and I in him.

noyes@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent me, and I live by reason of the Father; so he that eateth me, he also shall live by reason of me.

noyes@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down from heaven; not as the fathers ate, and died; he that eateth this bread will live for ever.

noyes@John:6:59 @ These things he said in a synagogue, while teaching in Capernaum.

noyes@John:6:60 @ Many therefore of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This teaching is hard; who can listen to it?

noyes@John:6:61 @ Jesus therefore knew within himself that his disciples were murmuring about this, and said to them, Doth this offend you?

noyes@John:6:62 @ What then if ye behold the Son of man ascending where he was before?

noyes@John:6:63 @ It is the spirit which maketh alive; the flesh profiteth nothing. The words which I have spoken to you are spirit, and are life.

noyes@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray him.

noyes@John:6:65 @ And he said, For this cause I have told you, that no one can come to me, unless it hath been given him from the Father.

noyes@John:6:66 @ From this time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

noyes@John:6:67 @ Jesus therefore said to the twelve, Do ye also wish to go away?

noyes@John:6:68 @ Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast words of everlasting life;

noyes@John:6:69 @ and we have believed and known, that thou art the Holy One of God.

noyes@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them, Did not I choose you twelve? and one of you is a devil!

noyes@John:6:71 @ He spoke of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot; for it was he that was about to betray him, being one of the twelve.

noyes@John:7:1 @ After these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

noyes@John:7:2 @ Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.

noyes@John:7:3 @ His brothers therefore said to him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou art doing.

noyes@John:7:4 @ For no one doeth anything in secret, and yet himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

noyes@John:7:5 @ For even his brothers did not believe in him.

noyes@John:7:6 @ Jesus saith to them, My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready.

noyes@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil.

noyes@John:7:8 @ Go ye up to the feast; I go not up to this feast; for my time is not yet fully come.

noyes@John:7:9 @ Having said these things, he remained in Galilee.

noyes@John:7:10 @ But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not openly, but as it were in secret.

noyes@John:7:11 @ The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is that man?

noyes@John:7:12 @ And there was much debating among the multitude concerning him. Some said, He is a good man; others said, Nay, but he deceiveth the multitude.

noyes@John:7:13 @ No one, however, spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.

noyes@John:7:14 @ But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

noyes@John:7:15 @ The Jews therefore marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

noyes@John:7:16 @ Jesus therefore answered them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me.

noyes@John:7:17 @ If any one is desirous to do his will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is from God, or whether I speak from myself.

noyes@John:7:18 @ He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory; but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and in him is no unrighteousness.

noyes@John:7:19 @ Hath not Moses given you the Law? and none of you keepeth the Law! Why do ye seek to kill me?

noyes@John:7:20 @ The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon! Who seeketh to kill thee?

noyes@John:7:21 @ Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one good work, and ye are all wondering.

noyes@John:7:22 @ Moses hath given you circumcision, (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.

noyes@John:7:23 @ If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye angry at me, because I have restored soundness to the whole body of a man on the sabbath?

noyes@John:7:24 @ Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

noyes@John:7:25 @ Then some of the men of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

noyes@John:7:26 @ and see! he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers discovered certainly that this man is the Christ?

noyes@John:7:27 @ Still, as to this man, we know whence he is; but when the Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence he is.

noyes@John:7:28 @ Jesus therefore cried aloud, teaching in the temple and saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but there is in truth one who sent me, whom ye know not.

noyes@John:7:29 @ I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.

noyes@John:7:30 @ Therefore they sought to take him; but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

noyes@John:7:31 @ But of the multitude many believed in him, and said, When the Christ cometh, will he do more signs than these which this man doeth?

noyes@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard the multitude thus debating concerning him; and the chief priest and the Pharisees sent officers to seize him.

noyes@John:7:33 @ Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while I am with you, and then I go to him that sent me.

noyes@John:7:34 @ Ye will seek me and not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come.

noyes@John:7:35 @ The Jews therefore said among themselves, Whither will this man go, that we shall not find him? Will he go to the dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

noyes@John:7:36 @ What meaneth this which he said, Ye will seek me, and not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come?

noyes@John:7:37 @ On the last day, which is the great day, of the feast, Jesus stood and cried aloud, saying, If any one thirst, let him come to me, and drink.

noyes@John:7:38 @ He that believeth in me, from within him, as the Scripture hath said, will flow rivers of living water.

noyes@John:7:39 @ But this he said of the Spirit, which those that believed in him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

noyes@John:7:40 @ Some of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, This is in truth the prophet. Others said, This is the Christ.

noyes@John:7:41 @ Others said, Doth the Christ then come from Galilee?

noyes@John:7:42 @ Hath not the Scripture said, that the Christ cometh from the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the town where David was?

noyes@John:7:43 @ So there was a division among the multitude because of him.

noyes@John:7:44 @ And some of them wished to seize him; but no one laid hands on him.

noyes@John:7:45 @ The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, Why did ye not bring him?

noyes@John:7:46 @ The officers answered, Never man spoke like this man.

noyes@John:7:47 @ The Pharisees answered them, Have ye also been deceived?

noyes@John:7:48 @ Hath any one of the rulers believed in him? or of the Pharisees?

noyes@John:7:49 @ but this multitude that know not the Law are accursed.

noyes@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus saith to them, being one of them,

noyes@John:7:51 @ Doth our law judge a man, unless it first hear from him, and know what he doeth?

noyes@John:7:52 @ They answered and said to him, Art thou too from Galilee? Search and see that no prophet ariseth from Galilee.

noyes@John:7:53 @

noyes@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.

noyes@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Though I bear witness of myself, my witness is true; for I know whence I came, and whither I go; ye know not whence I come, or whither I go.

noyes@John:8:15 @ Ye judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.

noyes@John:8:16 @ But even if I myself should judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and he who sent me.

noyes@John:8:17 @ Moreover, it is written in your law, that the witness of two men is true.

noyes@John:8:18 @ I am one who bear witness of myself, and the Father who sent me beareth witness of me.

noyes@John:8:19 @ They said therefore to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me, nor my Father. If ye knew me, ye would know my Father also.

noyes@John:8:20 @ These words he spoke in the treasury, while teaching in the temple; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

noyes@John:8:21 @ Again therefore he said to them, I go away, and ye will seek me, and will die in your sin. Whither I go, ye cannot come.

noyes@John:8:22 @ The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come?

noyes@John:8:23 @ And he said to them, Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world.

noyes@John:8:24 @ Therefore I said to you, that ye will die in your sins; for unless ye believe that I am He, ye will die in your sins.

noyes@John:8:25 @ They said therefore to him, Who art thou? Jesus said to them, In the first place, I am just that which I speak to you.

noyes@John:8:26 @ I have many things to say, and to judge, concerning you; but he who sent me is true; and I speak to the world what I heard from him.

noyes@John:8:27 @ They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father.

noyes@John:8:28 @ Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then ye will know that I am He, and do nothing of myself, but speak these things as the Father taught me.

noyes@John:8:29 @ And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone, for I always do the things that please him.

noyes@John:8:30 @ As he spoke these words, many believed in him.

noyes@John:8:31 @ Jesus therefore said to those Jews who believed in him, If ye continue in my word, ye are truly my disciples;

noyes@John:8:32 @ and ye will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.

noyes@John:8:33 @ They answered him, We are Abraham’s offspring, and have never been in bondage to any one; how sayest, thou, Ye will be made free?

noyes@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, Truly, truly do I say to you, Every one that committeth sin is a bond–servant of sin.

noyes@John:8:35 @ And the bond–servant abideth not in the house for ever; the son abideth for ever.

noyes@John:8:36 @ If therefore the Son make you free, ye will be free indeed.

noyes@John:8:37 @ I know that ye are Abraham’s offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word is not received within you.

noyes@John:8:38 @ I speak what I have seen with the Father; and ye accordingly do what ye have seen with your father.

noyes@John:8:39 @ They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

noyes@John:8:40 @ But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath spoken to you the truth, which I heard from God; this did not Abraham.

noyes@John:8:41 @ Ye do the works of your father. They said to him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, God.

noyes@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, If God were your father, ye would love me; for from God I proceeded forth and am come; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

noyes@John:8:43 @ Why do ye not understand my language? It is because ye cannot listen to my word.

noyes@John:8:44 @ Ye are of your father the Devil, and what your father desireth ye are ready to do. He was a murderer from the beginning; and he abideth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh from his own nature; for he is a liar, and the father of it.

noyes@John:8:45 @ But because I speak the truth, ye believe me not.

noyes@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I speak truth, Why do ye not believe me?

noyes@John:8:47 @ He that is of God heareth God’s words; for this cause ye do not hear, because ye are not of God.

noyes@John:8:48 @ The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?

noyes@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered, I have not a demon, but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me.

noyes@John:8:50 @ But I seek not my own glory; there is one that seeketh and judgeth.

noyes@John:8:51 @ Truly, truly do I say to you, If any one keep my word, he will never see death.

noyes@John:8:52 @ The Jews said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he will never taste of death.

noyes@John:8:53 @ Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets also died. Whom dost thou make thyself?

noyes@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom ye say, He is our God:

noyes@John:8:55 @ yet ye know him not; but I know him. And if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you. But I know him, and keep his word.

noyes@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham exulted that he might see my day; and he saw it, and was glad.

noyes@John:8:57 @ The Jews therefore said to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?

noyes@John:8:58 @ Jesus said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, From before Abraham was, I have been.

noyes@John:8:59 @ They therefore took up stones to throw at him; but Jesus concealed himself, and went out of the temple.

noyes@John:9:1 @ And as he was passing along, he saw a man who had been blind from his birth.

noyes@John:9:2 @ And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

noyes@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.

noyes@John:9:4 @ We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night is coming, when no one can work.

noyes@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

noyes@John:9:6 @ Having thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay,

noyes@John:9:7 @ and said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam; (which is, when translated, Sent.) He went away therefore, and washed and came seeing.

noyes@John:9:8 @ The neighbors therefore, and they who before had seen him as a beggar, said, Is not this he that sits and begs?

noyes@John:9:9 @ Some said, This is he. Others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.

noyes@John:9:10 @ They said therefore to him How then were thine eyes opened?

noyes@John:9:11 @ He answered, The man who is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to Siloam, and wash. I went therefore and washed, and received sight.

noyes@John:9:12 @ And they said to him, Where is that man? He saith, I do not know.

noyes@John:9:13 @ They bring to the Pharisees him who had once been blind.

noyes@John:9:14 @ And the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes was the sabbath.

noyes@John:9:15 @ Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and I see.

noyes@John:9:16 @ Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such signs. And there was a division among them.

noyes@John:9:17 @ They say therefore to the blind man again, What dost thou say of him for having opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.

noyes@John:9:18 @ The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

noyes@John:9:19 @ And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?

noyes@John:9:20 @ His parents, answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

noyes@John:9:21 @ but by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not; ask him, he is of age; he will speak for himself.

noyes@John:9:22 @ This his parents said, because they feared the Jews. For the Jews had already agreed, that if any one should acknowledge him as the Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

noyes@John:9:23 @ Therefore his parents said, He is of age; ask him.

noyes@John:9:24 @ They therefore called a second time the man that had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.

noyes@John:9:25 @ He therefore answered, Whether he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

noyes@John:9:26 @ They said to him, What did he do to thee? How did he open thine eyes?

noyes@John:9:27 @ He answered them, I have already told you, and ye did not hear; why would ye hear it again? Are ye also inclined to become his disciples?

noyes@John:9:28 @ They reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.

noyes@John:9:29 @ We know that God hath spoken to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.

noyes@John:9:30 @ The man answered and said to them, Why, herein is a marvelous thing, that ye know not whence he is, and yet he opened my eyes.

noyes@John:9:31 @ We know that God heareth not sinners; but if any one is a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

noyes@John:9:32 @ Since the world began, it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind.

noyes@John:9:33 @ If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.

noyes@John:9:34 @ They answered and said to him, Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

noyes@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and he found him, and said, Dost thou believe in the Son of man?

noyes@John:9:36 @ He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?

noyes@John:9:37 @ Jesus said to him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

noyes@John:9:38 @ And he said, I believe, Lord; and he prostrated himself before him.

noyes@John:9:39 @ And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world; that they who see not might see, and that they who see might become blind.

noyes@John:9:40 @ Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this, and said to him, Are we also blind?

noyes@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye would not have sin; but now ye say, We see. Your sin remaineth.

noyes@John:10:1 @ Truly, truly do I say to you, He that entereth not through the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber;

noyes@John:10:2 @ but he that entereth through the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

noyes@John:10:3 @ To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice; and his own sheep he calleth by name, and leadeth them out.

noyes@John:10:4 @ When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.

noyes@John:10:5 @ But a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him; because they know not the voice of strangers.

noyes@John:10:6 @ This parable Jesus spoke to them; but they did not understand what the things were which he spoke to them.

noyes@John:10:7 @ Jesus therefore said, Truly, truly do I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

noyes@John:10:8 @ All those who came are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.

noyes@John:10:9 @ I am the door; if any one enter through me, he will be saved, and will go in and out, and find pasture.

noyes@John:10:10 @ The thief cometh not but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I came that they might have life, and have abundance.

noyes@John:10:11 @ I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

noyes@John:10:12 @ He that is a hireling and not a shepherd, nor the owner of the sheep, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;

noyes@John:10:13 @ because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

noyes@John:10:14 @ I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and they know me,

noyes@John:10:15 @ even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I give my life for the sheep.

noyes@John:10:16 @ And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; them also I must bring; and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd.

noyes@John:10:17 @ On this account the Father loveth me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

noyes@John:10:18 @ No one taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again; this charge I received from my Father.

noyes@John:10:19 @ Again there arose a division among the Jews on account of these words.

noyes@John:10:20 @ Many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why do ye hear him?

noyes@John:10:21 @ Others said, These are not the words of one that hath a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?

noyes@John:10:22 @ And the feast of the dedication came at Jerusalem. It was winter;

noyes@John:10:23 @ and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.

noyes@John:10:24 @ Then came the Jews around him, and said to him, How long dost thou hold our minds in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.

noyes@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, I have told you, and ye do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name, these bear witness of me.

noyes@John:10:26 @ But ye do not believe, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said to you.

noyes@John:10:27 @ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;

noyes@John:10:30 @ I and the Father are one.

noyes@John:10:31 @ The Jews again took up stones to stone him.

noyes@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shown you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

noyes@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered him, Not for a good work do we stone thee, but for blasphemy, and because thou, who art a man, makest thyself God.

noyes@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your Law, "I said, ye are gods"?

noyes@John:10:35 @ If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came, and the Scripture cannot be made void,

noyes@John:10:36 @ say ye of him whom the Father sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am the Son of God?

noyes@John:10:38 @ But if I do them, though ye believe not me, believe the works; that ye may learn and know that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.

noyes@John:10:39 @ They sought therefore to seize him; and he went forth out of their hands.

noyes@John:10:40 @ And he went away again beyond the Jordan, to the place where John was at first baptizing; and there he abode.

noyes@John:10:41 @ And many came to him, and said, John indeed wrought no sign; but everything that John said of this man was true.

noyes@John:10:42 @ And many believed in him there.

noyes@John:11:1 @ But there was a certain man sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

noyes@John:11:2 @ It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

noyes@John:11:3 @ The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

noyes@John:11:4 @ And Jesus hearing this said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.

noyes@John:11:6 @ When therefore he heard that he was sick, he remained in the place where he was two days.

noyes@John:11:7 @ Then after this he saith to the disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

noyes@John:11:8 @ The disciples say to him, Rabbi, the Jews but just now were seeking to stone thee, and goest thou thither again?

noyes@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world;

noyes@John:11:10 @ but if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth; because the light is not in him.

noyes@John:11:11 @ This he spoke, and afterwards said to them, Our friend Lazarus hath fallen asleep; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.

noyes@John:11:12 @ The disciples therefore said to him, Lord, if he hath fallen asleep, he will recover.

noyes@John:11:13 @ But Jesus had spoken of his death; but they thought that he spoke of the taking of rest in sleep.

noyes@John:11:14 @ Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.

noyes@John:11:15 @ And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there; that ye may believe; but let us go to him.

noyes@John:11:16 @ Then said Thomas, who was called Didymus, to his fellow–disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

noyes@John:11:17 @ Having come, therefore, Jesus found that he had been four days in the tomb.

noyes@John:11:18 @ Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off;

noyes@John:11:52 @ and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together in one body the children of God that are scattered abroad.

noyes@John:11:53 @ Therefore from that day forth they consulted together to put him to death.

noyes@John:12:6 @ And this he said, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and kept the purse, and bore what was put therein.

noyes@John:12:8 @ For the poor ye have always with you, but me ye have not always.

noyes@John:12:20 @ Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast.

noyes@John:12:21 @ These came therefore to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus.

noyes@John:12:22 @ Philip goeth and telleth Andrew; Andrew and Philip go and tell Jesus.
