* And , behold (5628 ), thou shalt conceive (5695 ) in thy womb , and bring forth (5695 ) a son , and shalt call (5692 ) his name JESUS . * He shall be (5704 ) great , and shall be called (5701 ) the Son of the Highest : and the Lord God shall give (5692 ) unto him the throne of his father David : * And he shall reign (5692 ) over the house of Jacob for ever ; and of his kingdom there shall be (5704 ) no end . * Then said (5627 ) Mary unto the angel , How shall this be (5704 ), seeing I know (5719 ) not a man ? * And the angel answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ) unto her , The Holy Ghost shall come (5695 ) upon thee , and the power of the Highest shall overshadow (5692 ) thee : therefore also that holy thing which shall be born (5746 ) of thee shall be called (5701 ) the Son of God . * And , behold (5628 ), thy cousin Elisabeth , she hath also conceived (5761 ) a son in her old age : and this is (5748 ) the sixth month with her , who was called (5746 ) barren . * For with God nothing shall be impossible (5692 ). * And Mary said (5627 ), Behold (5628 ) the handmaid of the Lord ; be it (5636 ) unto me according to thy word . And the angel departed (5627 ) from her . * And Mary arose (5631 ) in those days , and went (5675 ) into the hill country with haste , into a city of Juda ; * And entered (5627 ) into the house of Zacharias , and saluted (5662 ) Elisabeth . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that , when Elisabeth heard (5656 ) the salutation of Mary , the babe leaped (5656 ) in her womb ; and Elisabeth was filled (5681 ) with the Holy Ghost : * And she spake out (5656 ) with a loud voice , and said (5627 ), Blessed (5772 ) art thou among women , and blessed (5772 ) is the fruit of thy womb . * And whence is this to me , that the mother of my Lord should come (5632 ) to me ? * For , lo (5628 ), as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded (5633 ) in mine ears , the babe leaped (5656 ) in my womb for joy . * And blessed is she that believed (5660 ): for there shall be (5704 ) a performance of those things which were told (5772 ) her from the Lord . * And Mary said (5627 ), My soul doth magnify (5719 ) the Lord , * And my spirit hath rejoiced (5656 ) in God my Saviour . * For he hath regarded (5656 ) the low estate of his handmaiden : for , behold (5628 ), from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed (5692 ). * For he that is mighty hath done (5656 ) to me great things ; and holy is his name . * And his mercy is on them that fear (5740 ) him from generation to generation . * He hath shewed (5656 ) strength with his arm ; he hath scattered (5656 ) the proud in the imagination of their hearts . * He hath put down (5627 ) the mighty from their seats , and exalted (5656 ) them of low degree . * He hath filled (5656 ) the hungry (5723 ) with good things ; and the rich (5723 ) he hath sent empty away (5656 ). * He hath holpen (5633 ) his servant Israel , in remembrance (5683 ) of his mercy ; * As he spake (5656 ) to our fathers , to Abraham , and to his seed for ever . * And Mary abode (5656 ) with her about three months , and returned (5656 ) to her own house . * Now Elisabeths full time came (5681 ) that she should be delivered (5629 ); and she brought forth (5656 ) a son . * And her neighbours and her cousins heard (5656 ) how the Lord had shewed great (5707 ) mercy upon her ; and they rejoiced (5707 ) with her . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that on the eighth day they came (5627 ) to circumcise (5629 ) the child ; and they called (5707 ) him Zacharias , after the name of his father . * And his mother answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ), Not so ; but he shall be called (5701 ) John . * And they said (5627 ) unto her , There is (5748 ) none of thy kindred that is called (5743 ) by this name . * And they made signs (5707 ) to his father , how he would have (5722 ) him called (5745 ). * And he asked for (5660 ) a writing table , and wrote (5656 ), saying (5723 ), His name is (5748 ) John . And they marvelled (5656 ) all . * And his mouth was opened (5681 ) immediately , and his tongue loosed , and he spake (5707 ), and praised (5723 ) God . * And fear came (5633 ) on all that dwelt round about (5723 ) them : and all these sayings were noised abroad (5712 ) throughout all the hill country of Judaea . * And all they that heard (5660 ) them laid them up (5639 ) in their hearts , saying (5723 ), What manner of child shall this be (5704 )! And the hand of the Lord was (5713 ) with him . * And his father Zacharias was filled (5681 ) with the Holy Ghost , and prophesied (5656 ), saying (5723 ), * Blessed be the Lord God of Israel ; for he hath visited (5662 ) and redeemed his people (5656 ), * And hath raised up (5656 ) an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David ; * As he spake (5656 ) by the mouth of his holy prophets , which have been since the world began : * That we should be saved from our enemies , and from the hand of all that hate (5723 ) us ; * To perform (5658 ) the mercy promised to our fathers , and to remember (5683 ) his holy covenant ; * The oath which he sware (5656 ) to our father Abraham , * That he would grant (5629 ) unto us , that we being delivered (5685 ) out of the hand of our enemies might serve (5721 ) him without fear , * In holiness and righteousness before him , all the days of our life . * And thou , child , shalt be called (5701 ) the prophet of the Highest : for thou shalt go (5695 ) before the face of the Lord to prepare (5658 ) his ways ; * To give (5629 ) knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins , * Through the tender mercy of our God ; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited (5662 ) us , * To give light (5658 ) to them that sit (5740 ) in darkness and in the shadow of death , to guide (5658 ) our feet into the way of peace . * And the child grew (5707 ), and waxed strong (5712 ) in spirit , and was (5713 ) in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel . * After these things the Lord appointed (5656 ) other seventy also , and sent (5656 ) them two and two before his face into every city and place , whither (5625 ) he himself would (5707 ) come (5738 ). * Therefore said he (5707 ) unto them , The harvest truly is great , but the labourers are few : pray ye (5676 ) therefore the Lord of the harvest , that he would send forth (5725 ) labourers into his harvest . * Go your ways (5720 ): behold (5628 ), I send you forth (5719 ) as lambs among wolves . * Carry (5720 ) neither purse , nor scrip , nor shoes : and salute (5667 ) no man by the way . * And into whatsoever house ye enter (5741 ), first say (5720 ), Peace be to this house . * And if the son of peace be (5753 ) there , your peace shall rest (5695 ) upon it : if not , it shall turn to you again (5692 ). * And in the same house remain (5720 ), eating (5723 ) and drinking (5723 ) such things as they give : for the labourer is (5748 ) worthy of his hire . Go (5720 ) not from house to house . * And into whatsoever city ye enter (5741 ), and they receive (5741 ) you , eat such things (5720 ) as are set before (5746 ) you : * And heal (5720 ) the sick that are therein , and say (5720 ) unto them , The kingdom of God is come nigh (5758 ) unto you . * But into whatsoever city ye enter (5741 ), and they receive (5741 ) you not , go your ways out (5631 ) into the streets of the same , and say (5628 ), * Even the very dust of your city , which cleaveth (5685 ) on us , we do wipe off (5731 ) against you : notwithstanding be ye sure (5720 ) of this , that the kingdom of God is come nigh (5758 ) unto you . * But I say (5719 ) unto you , that it shall be (5704 ) more tolerable in that day for Sodom , than for that city . * Woe unto thee , Chorazin ! woe unto thee , Bethsaida ! for if the mighty works had been done (5633 ) in Tyre and Sidon , which have been done (5637 ) in you , they had a great while ago repented (5656 ), sitting (5740 ) in sackcloth and ashes . * But it shall be (5704 ) more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment , than for you . * And thou , Capernaum , which art exalted (5685 ) to heaven , shalt be thrust down (5701 ) to hell . * He that heareth (5723 ) you heareth (5719 ) me ; and he that despiseth (5723 ) you despiseth (5719 ) me ; and he that despiseth (5723 ) me despiseth (5719 ) him that sent (5660 ) me . * And the seventy returned again (5656 ) with joy , saying (5723 ), Lord , even the devils are subject (5743 ) unto us through thy name . * And he said (5627 ) unto them , I beheld (5707 ) Satan as lightning fall (5631 ) from heaven . * Behold (5628 ), I give (5719 ) unto you power to tread (5721 ) on serpents and scorpions , and over all the power of the enemy : and nothing shall by any means hurt (5661 ) (5625 ) (5692 ) you . * Notwithstanding in this rejoice (5720 ) not , that the spirits are subject (5743 ) unto you ; but rather rejoice (5720 ), because your names are written (5648 ) in heaven . * In that hour Jesus rejoiced in (5662 ) spirit , and said (5627 ), I thank (5731 ) thee , O Father , Lord of heaven and earth , that thou hast hid (5656 ) these things from the wise and prudent , and hast revealed (5656 ) them unto babes : even so , Father ; for so it seemed (5633 ) good in thy sight . * All things are delivered (5681 ) to me of my Father : and no man knoweth (5719 ) who the Son is (5748 ), but the Father ; and who the Father is (5748 ), but the Son , and he to whom the Son will (5741 ) reveal (5658 ) him . * And he turned him (5651 ) unto his disciples , and said (5627 ) privately , Blessed are the eyes which see (5723 ) the things that ye see (5719 ): * For I tell (5719 ) you , that many prophets and kings have desired (5656 ) to see (5629 ) those things which ye see (5719 ), and have not seen (5627 ) them ; and to hear (5658 ) those things which ye hear (5719 ), and have not heard (5656 ) them . * And , behold (5628 ), a certain lawyer stood up (5627 ), and tempted (5723 ) him , saying (5723 ), Master , what shall I do (5660 ) to inherit (5692 ) eternal life ? * He said (5627 ) unto him , What is written (5769 ) in the law ? how readest thou (5719 )? * And he answering (5679 ) said (5627 ), Thou shalt love (5692 ) the Lord thy God with all thy heart , and with all thy soul , and with all thy strength , and with all thy mind ; and thy neighbour as thyself . * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Thou hast answered (5662 ) right : this do (5720 ), and thou shalt live (5692 ). * But he , willing (5723 ) to justify (5721 ) himself , said (5627 ) unto Jesus , And who is (5748 ) my neighbour ? * And Jesus answering (5631 ) said (5627 ), A certain man went down (5707 ) from Jerusalem to Jericho , and fell among (5627 ) thieves , which stripped him of his raiment (5660 ), and wounded (5631 ) him , and departed (5627 ), leaving (5631 ) him half dead (5723 ). * And by chance there came down (5707 ) a certain priest that way : and when he saw (5631 ) him , he passed by on the other side (5627 ). * And likewise a Levite , when he was (5637 ) at the place , came (5631 ) and looked (5631 ) on him , and passed by on the other side (5627 ). * But a certain Samaritan , as he journeyed (5723 ), came (5627 ) where he was : and when he saw (5631 ) him , he had compassion (5675 ) on him , * And went (5631 ) to him , and bound up (5656 ) his wounds , pouring in (5723 ) oil and wine , and set (5660 ) him on his own beast , and brought (5627 ) him to an inn , and took care (5675 ) of him . * And on the morrow when he departed (5631 ), he took out (5631 ) two pence , and gave (5656 ) them to the host , and said (5627 ) unto him , Take care (5682 ) of him ; and whatsoever thou spendest more (5661 ), when I come again (5738 ), I will repay (5692 ) thee . * Which now of these three , thinkest (5719 ) thou , was (5755 ) neighbour unto him that fell (5631 ) among the thieves ? * And he said (5627 ), He that shewed (5660 ) mercy on him . Then said (5627 ) Jesus unto him , Go (5737 ), and do (5720 ) thou likewise . * Now it came to pass (5633 ), as they went (5738 ), that he entered (5627 ) into a certain village : and a certain woman named Martha received (5662 ) him into her house . * And she had (5713 ) a sister called (5746 ) Mary , which also sat (5660 ) at Jesus feet , and heard (5707 ) his word . * But Martha was cumbered (5712 ) about much serving , and came to him (5631 ), and said (5627 ), Lord , dost thou not care (5719 ) that my sister hath left (5627 ) me to serve (5721 ) alone ? bid (5628 ) her therefore that she help (5638 ) me . * And Jesus answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ) unto her , Martha , Martha , thou art careful (5719 ) and troubled (5743 ) about many things : * But one thing is (5748 ) needful : and Mary hath chosen (5668 ) that good part , which shall not be taken away (5701 ) from her . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that , as he was (5750 ) praying (5740 ) in a certain place , when he ceased (5668 ), one of his disciples said (5627 ) unto him , Lord , teach (5657 ) us to pray (5738 ), as John also taught (5656 ) his disciples . * And he said (5627 ) unto them , When ye pray (5741 ), say (5720 ), Our Father which art in heaven , Hallowed be (5682 ) thy name . Thy kingdom come (5628 ). Thy will be done (5676 ), as in heaven , so in earth . * Give (5720 ) us day by day our daily bread . * And forgive (5628 ) us our sins ; for we also forgive (5719 ) every one that is indebted (5723 ) to us . And lead (5661 ) us not into temptation ; but deliver (5663 ) us from evil . * And he said (5627 ) unto them , Which of you shall have (5692 ) a friend , and shall go (5695 ) unto him at midnight , and say (5632 ) unto him , Friend , lend (5657 ) me three loaves ; * For a friend of mine in his journey is come (5633 ) to me , and I have (5719 ) nothing to set before (5692 ) him ? * And he from within shall answer (5679 ) and say (5632 ), Trouble (5720 ) me not : the door is now shut (5769 ), and my children are (5748 ) with me in bed ; I cannot (5736 ) rise (5631 ) and give (5629 ) thee . * I say (5719 ) unto you , Though he will not rise (5685 ) and give (5692 ) him , because he is (5750 ) his friend , yet because of his importunity he will rise (5631 ) and give (5692 ) him as many as he needeth (5719 ). * And I say (5719 ) unto you , Ask (5720 ), and it shall be given (5701 ) you ; seek (5720 ), and ye shall find (5692 ); knock (5720 ), and it shall be opened (5691 ) unto you . * For every one that asketh (5723 ) receiveth (5719 ); and he that seeketh (5723 ) findeth (5719 ); and to him that knocketh (5723 ) it shall be opened (5691 ). * If a son shall ask (5692 ) bread of any of you that is a father , will he give (5692 ) him a stone ? or if he ask a fish , will he for a fish give (5692 ) him a serpent ? * Or if he shall ask (5661 ) an egg , will he offer (5692 ) him a scorpion ? * If ye then , being (5723 ) evil , know (5758 ) how to give (5721 ) good gifts unto your children : how much more shall your heavenly Father give (5692 ) the Holy Spirit to them that ask (5723 ) him ? * And he was (5713 ) casting out (5723 ) a devil , and it was (5713 ) dumb . And it came to pass (5633 ), when the devil was gone out (5631 ), the dumb spake (5656 ); and the people wondered (5656 ). * But some of them said (5627 ), He casteth out (5719 ) devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils . * And others , tempting (5723 ) him , sought (5707 ) of him a sign from heaven . * But he , knowing (5761 ) their thoughts , said (5627 ) unto them , Every kingdom divided (5685 ) against itself is brought to desolation (5743 ); and a house divided against a house falleth (5719 ). * If Satan also be divided (5681 ) against himself , how shall his kingdom stand (5701 )? because ye say (5719 ) that I cast out (5721 ) devils through Beelzebub . * And if I by Beelzebub cast out (5719 ) devils , by whom do your sons cast them out (5719 )? therefore shall they be (5704 ) your judges . * But if I with the finger of God cast out (5719 ) devils , no doubt the kingdom of God is come (5656 ) upon you . * When a strong man armed (5772 ) keepeth (5725 ) his palace , his goods (5723 ) are (5748 ) in peace : * But when a stronger than he shall come upon him (5631 ), and overcome (5661 ) him , he taketh (5719 ) from him all his armour wherein he trusted (5714 ), and divideth (5719 ) his spoils . * He that is (5752 ) not with me is (5748 ) against me : and he that gathereth (5723 ) not with me scattereth (5719 ). * When the unclean spirit is gone (5632 ) out of a man , he walketh (5736 ) through dry places , seeking (5723 ) rest ; and finding (5723 ) none , he saith (5719 ), I will return (5692 ) unto my house whence I came out (5627 ). * And when he cometh (5631 ), he findeth (5719 ) it swept (5772 ) and garnished (5772 ). * Then goeth he (5736 ), and taketh (5719 ) to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself ; and they enter in (5631 ), and dwell (5719 ) there : and the last state of that man is (5736 ) worse than the first . * And it came to pass (5633 ), as he spake (5721 ) these things , a certain woman of the company lifted up (5660 ) her voice , and said (5627 ) unto him , Blessed is the womb that bare (5660 ) thee , and the paps which thou hast sucked (5656 ). * But he said (5627 ), Yea rather , blessed are they that hear (5723 ) the word of God , and keep (5723 ) it . * And when the people were gathered thick together (5746 ), he began (5662 ) to say (5721 ), This is (5748 ) an evil generation : they seek (5719 ) a sign ; and there shall no sign be given (5701 ) it , but the sign of Jonas the prophet . * For as Jonas was (5633 ) a sign unto the Ninevites , so shall also the Son of man be (5704 ) to this generation . * The queen of the south shall rise up (5701 ) in the judgment with the men of this generation , and condemn (5692 ) them : for she came (5627 ) from the utmost parts of the earth to hear (5658 ) the wisdom of Solomon ; and , behold (5628 ), a greater than Solomon is here . * The men of Nineve shall rise up (5698 ) in the judgment with this generation , and shall condemn (5692 ) it : for they repented (5656 ) at the preaching of Jonas ; and , behold (5628 ), a greater than Jonas is here . * No man , when he hath lighted (5660 ) a candle , putteth (5719 ) it in a secret place , neither under a bushel , but on a candlestick , that they which come in (5740 ) may see (5725 ) the light . * The light of the body is (5748 ) the eye : therefore when thine eye is (5753 ) single , thy whole body also is (5748 ) full of light ; but when thine eye is (5753 ) evil , thy body also is full of darkness . * Take heed (5720 ) therefore that the light which is in thee be (5748 ) not darkness . * If thy whole body therefore be full of light , having (5723 ) no part dark , the whole shall be (5704 ) full of light , as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light (5725 ). * And as he spake (5658 ), a certain Pharisee besought (5707 ) him to dine (5661 ) with him : and he went in (5631 ), and sat down to meat (5627 ). * And when the Pharisee saw (5631 ) it , he marvelled (5656 ) that he had not first washed (5681 ) before dinner . * And the Lord said (5627 ) unto him , Now do ye Pharisees make clean (5719 ) the outside of the cup and the platter ; but your inward part is full (5719 ) of ravening and wickedness . * Ye fools , did not he that made (5660 ) that which is without make (5656 ) that which is within also ? * But rather give (5628 ) alms of such things as ye have (5752 ); and , behold (5628 ), all things are (5748 ) clean unto you . * But woe unto you , Pharisees ! for ye tithe (5719 ) mint and rue and all manner of herbs , and pass over (5736 ) judgment and the love of God : these ought ye (5713 ) to have done (5658 ), and not to leave the other undone (5721 ). * Woe unto you , Pharisees ! for ye love (5719 ) the uppermost seats in the synagogues , and greetings in the markets . * Woe unto you , scribes and Pharisees , hypocrites ! for ye are (5748 ) as graves which appear not , and the men that walk (5723 ) over them are not aware (5758 ) of them . * Then answered (5679 ) one of the lawyers , and said (5719 ) unto him , Master , thus saying (5723 ) thou reproachest (5719 ) us also . * And he said (5627 ), Woe unto you also , ye lawyers ! for ye lade (5719 ) men with burdens grievous to be borne , and ye yourselves touch (5719 ) not the burdens with one of your fingers . * Woe unto you ! for ye build (5719 ) the sepulchres of the prophets , and your fathers killed (5656 ) them . * Truly ye bear witness (5719 ) that ye allow (5719 ) the deeds of your fathers : for they indeed killed (5656 ) them , and ye build (5719 ) their sepulchres . * Therefore also said (5627 ) the wisdom of God , I will send (5692 ) them prophets and apostles , and some of them they shall slay (5692 ) and persecute (5692 ): * That the blood of all the prophets , which was shed (5746 ) from the foundation of the world , may be required (5686 ) of this generation ; * From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias , which perished (5642 ) between the altar and the temple : verily I say (5719 ) unto you , It shall be required (5701 ) of this generation . * Woe unto you , lawyers ! for ye have taken away (5656 ) the key of knowledge : ye entered not in (5627 ) yourselves , and them that were entering in (5740 ) ye hindered (5656 ). * And as he said (5723 ) these things unto them , the scribes and the Pharisees began (5662 ) to urge (5721 ) him vehemently , and to provoke him to speak (5721 ) of many things : * Laying wait for (5723 ) him , and seeking (5723 ) to catch (5658 ) something out of his mouth , that they might accuse (5661 ) him . * In the mean time , when there were gathered together (5685 ) an innumerable multitude of people , insomuch that they trode (5721 ) one upon another , he began (5662 ) to say (5721 ) unto his disciples first of all , Beware (5720 ) ye of the leaven of the Pharisees , which is (5748 ) hypocrisy . * For there is (5748 ) nothing covered (5772 ), that shall not be revealed (5701 ); neither hid , that shall not be known (5701 ). * Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken (5627 ) in darkness shall be heard (5701 ) in the light ; and that which ye have spoken (5656 ) in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed (5701 ) upon the housetops . * And I say (5719 ) unto you my friends , Be not afraid (5676 ) of them that kill (5723 ) the body , and after that have (5723 ) no more that they can do (5658 ). * But I will forewarn (5692 ) you whom ye shall fear (5680 ): Fear (5676 ) him , which after he hath killed (5658 ) hath (5723 ) power to cast (5629 ) into hell ; yea , I say (5719 ) unto you , Fear (5676 ) him . * Are not five sparrows sold (5743 ) for two farthings , and not one of them is (5748 ) forgotten (5772 ) before God ? * But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered (5769 ). Fear (5737 ) not therefore : ye are of more value (5719 ) than many sparrows . * Also I say (5719 ) unto you , Whosoever shall confess (5661 ) me before men , him shall the Son of man also confess (5692 ) before the angels of God : * But he that denieth (5666 ) me before men shall be denied (5701 ) before the angels of God . * And whosoever shall speak (5692 ) a word against the Son of man , it shall be forgiven (5701 ) him : but unto him that blasphemeth (5660 ) against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven (5701 ). * And when they bring (5725 ) you unto the synagogues , and unto magistrates , and powers , take ye no thought (5720 ) how or what thing ye shall answer (5667 ), or what ye shall say (5632 ): * For the Holy Ghost shall teach (5692 ) you in the same hour what ye ought (5748 ) to say (5629 ). * And one of the company said (5627 ) unto him , Master , speak (5628 ) to my brother , that he divide (5670 ) the inheritance with me . * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Man , who made (5656 ) me a judge or a divider over you ? * And he said (5627 ) unto them , Take heed (5720 ), and beware (5732 ) of covetousness : for a mans life consisteth (5748 ) not in the abundance (5721 ) of the things which he possesseth (5723 ). * And he spake (5627 ) a parable unto them , saying (5723 ), The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully (5656 ): * And he thought (5711 ) within himself , saying (5723 ), What shall I do (5661 ), because I have (5719 ) no room where to bestow (5692 ) my fruits ? * And he said (5627 ), This will I do (5692 ): I will pull down (5692 ) my barns , and build (5692 ) greater ; and there will I bestow (5692 ) all my fruits and my goods . * And I will say (5692 ) to my soul , Soul , thou hast (5719 ) much goods laid up (5740 ) for many years ; take thine ease (5732 ), eat (5628 ), drink (5628 ), and be merry (5744 ). * But God said (5627 ) unto him , Thou fool , this night thy soul shall be required (5719 ) of thee : then whose shall those things be (5704 ), which thou hast provided (5656 )? * So is he that layeth up treasure (5723 ) for himself , and is not rich (5723 ) toward God . * And he said (5627 ) unto his disciples , Therefore I say (5719 ) unto you , Take no thought (5720 ) for your life , what ye shall eat (5632 ); neither for the body , what ye shall put on (5672 ). * The life is (5748 ) more than meat , and the body is more than raiment . * Consider (5657 ) the ravens : for they neither sow (5719 ) nor reap (5719 ); which neither have (5748 ) storehouse nor barn ; and God feedeth (5719 ) them : how much more are ye better than (5719 ) the fowls ? * And which of you with taking thought (5723 ) can (5736 ) add (5629 ) to his stature one cubit ? * If ye then be not able to do (5736 ) that thing which is least , why take ye thought (5719 ) for the rest ? * Consider (5657 ) the lilies how they grow (5719 ): they toil (5719 ) not , they spin (5719 ) not ; and yet I say (5719 ) unto you , that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed (5639 ) like one of these . * If then God so clothe (5719 ) the grass , which (5752 ) is to day in the field , and to morrow is cast (5746 ) into the oven ; how much more will he clothe you , O ye of little faith ? * And seek (5720 ) not ye what ye shall eat (5632 ), or what ye shall drink (5632 ), neither be ye of doubtful mind (5744 ). * For all these things do the nations of the world seek after (5719 ): and your Father knoweth (5758 ) that ye have need (5719 ) of these things . * But rather seek ye (5720 ) the kingdom of God ; and all these things shall be added (5701 ) unto you . * Fear (5737 ) not , little flock ; for it is your Fathers good pleasure (5656 ) to give (5629 ) you the kingdom . * Sell (5657 ) that ye have (5723 ), and give (5628 ) alms ; provide (5657 ) yourselves bags which wax not old (5746 ), a treasure in the heavens that faileth not , where no thief approacheth (5719 ), neither moth corrupteth (5719 ). * For where your treasure is (5748 ), there will your heart be (5704 ) also . * Let your loins be (5749 ) girded about (5772 ), and your lights burning (5746 ); * And ye yourselves like unto men that wait (5740 ) for their lord , when he will return (5692 ) from the wedding ; that when he cometh (5631 ) and knocketh (5660 ), they may open (5661 ) unto him immediately . * Blessed are those servants , whom the lord when he cometh (5631 ) shall find (5692 ) watching (5723 ): verily I say (5719 ) unto you , that he shall gird himself (5698 ), and make them to sit down to meat (5692 ), and will come forth (5631 ) and serve (5692 ) them . * And if he shall come (5632 ) in the second watch , or come (5632 ) in the third watch , and find (5632 ) them so , blessed are (5748 ) those servants . * And this know (5720 ), that if the goodman of the house had known (5715 ) what hour the thief would come (5736 ), he would have watched (5656 ), and not have suffered (5656 ) his house to be broken through (5650 ). * Be (5737 ) ye therefore ready also : for the Son of man cometh (5736 ) at an hour when ye think (5719 ) not . * Then Peter said (5627 ) unto him , Lord , speakest thou (5719 ) this parable unto us , or even to all ? * And the Lord said (5627 ), Who then is (5748 ) that faithful and wise steward , whom his lord shall make ruler (5692 ) over his household , to give (5721 ) them their portion of meat in due season ? * Blessed is that servant , whom his lord when he cometh (5631 ) shall find (5692 ) so doing (5723 ). * Of a truth I say (5719 ) unto you , that he will make him ruler (5692 ) over all that he hath (5723 ). * But and if that servant say (5632 ) in his heart , My lord delayeth (5719 ) his coming (5738 ); and shall begin (5672 ) to beat (5721 ) the menservants and maidens , and to eat (5721 ) and drink (5721 ), and to be drunken (5745 ); * The lord of that servant will come (5692 ) in a day when he looketh not for (5719 ) him , and at an hour when he is not aware (5719 ), and will cut him in sunder (5692 ), and will appoint (5692 ) him his portion with the unbelievers . * And that servant , which knew (5631 ) his lords will , and prepared (5660 ) not himself , neither did (5660 ) according to his will , shall be beaten (5691 ) with many stripes . * But he that knew (5631 ) not , and did commit (5660 ) things worthy of stripes , shall be beaten (5691 ) with few stripes . For unto whomsoever much is given (5681 ), of him shall be much required (5701 ): and to whom men have committed (5639 ) much , of him they will ask (5692 ) the more . * I am come (5627 ) to send (5629 ) fire on the earth ; and what will I (5719 ), if it be already kindled (5681 )? * But I have (5719 ) a baptism to be baptized with (5683 ); and how am I straitened (5743 ) till it be accomplished (5686 )! * Suppose ye (5719 ) that I am come (5633 ) to give (5629 ) peace on earth ? I tell (5719 ) you , Nay ; but rather division : * For from henceforth there shall be (5704 ) five in one house divided (5772 ), three against two , and two against three . * The father shall be divided (5701 ) against the son , and the son against the father ; the mother against the daughter , and the daughter against the mother ; the mother in law against her daughter in law , and the daughter in law against her mother in law . * And he said (5707 ) also to the people , When ye see (5632 ) a cloud rise (5723 ) out of the west , straightway ye say (5719 ), There cometh (5736 ) a shower ; and so it is (5736 ). * And when ye see the south wind blow (5723 ), ye say (5719 ), There will be (5704 ) heat ; and it cometh to pass (5736 ). * Ye hypocrites , ye can (5758 ) discern (5721 ) the face of the sky and of the earth ; but how is it that ye do not discern (5719 ) this time ? * Yea , and why even of yourselves judge ye (5719 ) not what is right ? * When thou goest (5719 ) with thine adversary to the magistrate , as thou art in the way , give (5628 ) diligence that thou mayest be delivered (5771 ) from him ; lest he hale (5661 ) thee to the judge , and the judge deliver (5632 ) thee to the officer , and the officer cast (5725 ) thee into prison . * I tell (5719 ) thee , thou shalt not depart (5632 ) thence , till thou hast paid (5632 ) the very last mite . * There were present (5713 ) at that season some that told (5723 ) him of the Galilaeans , whose blood Pilate had mingled (5656 ) with their sacrifices . * And Jesus answering (5679 ) said (5627 ) unto them , Suppose ye (5719 ) that these Galilaeans were (5633 ) sinners above all the Galilaeans , because they suffered (5754 ) such things ? * I tell (5719 ) you , Nay : but , except ye repent (5725 ), ye shall all likewise perish (5698 ). * Or those eighteen , upon whom the tower in Siloam fell (5627 ), and slew (5656 ) them , think ye (5719 ) that they were (5633 ) sinners above all men that dwelt (5723 ) in Jerusalem ? * I tell (5719 ) you , Nay : but , except ye repent (5725 ), ye shall all likewise perish (5698 ). * He spake (5707 ) also this parable ; A certain man had (5707 ) a fig tree planted (5772 ) in his vineyard ; and he came (5627 ) and sought (5723 ) fruit thereon , and found (5627 ) none . * Then said he (5627 ) unto the dresser of his vineyard , Behold (5628 ), these three years I come (5736 ) seeking (5723 ) fruit on this fig tree , and find (5719 ) none : cut it down (5657 ); why cumbereth (5719 ) it the ground ? * And he answering (5679 ) said (5719 ) unto him , Lord , let it alone (5628 ) this year also , till I shall dig (5661 ) about it , and dung (5632 ) it : * And if it bear (5661 ) fruit , well : and if not , then after that (5723 ) thou shalt cut it down (5692 ). * And he was (5713 ) teaching (5723 ) in one of the synagogues on the sabbath . * And , behold (5628 ), there was (5713 ) a woman which had (5723 ) a spirit of infirmity eighteen years , and was (5713 ) bowed together (5723 ), and could (5740 ) in no wise lift up (5658 ) herself . * And when Jesus saw (5631 ) her , he called (5656 ) her to him , and said (5627 ) unto her , Woman , thou art loosed (5769 ) from thine infirmity . * And he laid his hands on (5656 ) her : and immediately she was made straight (5681 ), and glorified (5707 ) God . * And the ruler of the synagogue answered (5679 ) with indignation (5723 ), because that Jesus had healed (5656 ) on the sabbath day , and said (5707 ) unto the people , There are (5748 ) six days in which men ought (5748 ) to work (5738 ): in them therefore come (5740 ) and be healed (5744 ), and not on the sabbath day . * The Lord then answered (5662 ) him , and said (5627 ), Thou hypocrite , doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose (5719 ) his ox or his ass from the stall , and lead him away (5631 ) to watering (5719 )? * And ought (5713 ) not this woman , being (5752 ) a daughter of Abraham , whom Satan hath bound (5656 ), lo (5628 ), these eighteen years , be loosed (5683 ) from this bond on the sabbath day ? * And when he had said (5723 ) these things , all his adversaries (5740 ) were ashamed (5712 ): and all the people rejoiced (5707 ) for all the glorious things that were done (5740 ) by him . * Then said he (5707 ), Unto what is (5748 ) the kingdom of God like ? and whereunto shall I resemble (5692 ) it ? * It is (5748 ) like a grain of mustard seed , which a man took (5631 ), and cast (5627 ) into his garden ; and it grew (5656 ), and waxed (5633 ) a great tree ; and the fowls of the air lodged (5656 ) in the branches of it . * And again he said (5627 ), Whereunto shall I liken (5692 ) the kingdom of God ? * It is (5748 ) like leaven , which a woman took (5631 ) and hid (5656 ) in three measures of meal , till the whole was leavened (5681 ). * And he went (5711 ) through the cities and villages , teaching (5723 ), and journeying (5734 ) toward Jerusalem . * Then said (5627 ) one unto him , Lord , are there few that be saved (5746 )? And he said (5627 ) unto them , * Strive (5737 ) to enter in (5629 ) at the strait gate : for many , I say (5719 ) unto you , will seek (5692 ) to enter in (5629 ), and shall not be able (5692 ). * When once the master of the house is risen up (5686 ), and hath shut (5661 ) to the door , and ye begin (5672 ) to stand (5760 ) without , and to knock (5721 ) at the door , saying (5723 ), Lord , Lord , open (5657 ) unto us ; and he shall answer (5679 ) and say (5692 ) unto you , I know (5758 ) you not whence ye are (5748 ): * Then shall ye begin (5698 ) to say (5721 ), We have eaten (5627 ) and drunk (5627 ) in thy presence , and thou hast taught (5656 ) in our streets . * But he shall say (5692 ), I tell (5719 ) you , I know (5758 ) you not whence ye are (5748 ); depart (5628 ) from me , all ye workers of iniquity . * There shall be (5704 ) weeping and gnashing of teeth , when ye shall see (5667 ) Abraham , and Isaac , and Jacob , and all the prophets , in the kingdom of God , and you yourselves thrust (5746 ) out . * And they shall come (5692 ) from the east , and from the west , and from the north , and from the south , and shall sit down (5701 ) in the kingdom of God . * And , behold (5628 ), there are (5748 ) last which shall be (5704 ) first , and there are (5748 ) first which shall be (5704 ) last . * The same day there came (5656 ) certain of the Pharisees , saying (5723 ) unto him , Get thee out (5628 ), and depart (5737 ) hence : for Herod will (5719 ) kill (5658 ) thee . * And he said (5627 ) unto them , Go ye (5679 ), and tell (5628 ) that fox , Behold (5628 ), I cast out (5719 ) devils , and I do (5719 ) cures to day and to morrow , and the third day I shall be perfected (5743 ). * Nevertheless I must (5748 ) walk (5738 ) to day , and to morrow , and the day following (5746 ): for it cannot be (5736 ) that a prophet perish (5641 ) out of Jerusalem . * O Jerusalem , Jerusalem , which killest (5723 ) the prophets , and stonest (5723 ) them that are sent (5772 ) unto thee ; how often would (5656 ) I have gathered thy children together (5658 ), as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings , and ye would (5656 ) not ! * Behold (5628 ), your house is left (5743 ) unto you desolate : and verily I say (5719 ) unto you , Ye shall not see (5632 ) me , until the time come (5661 ) when ye shall say (5632 ), Blessed (5772 ) is he that cometh (5740 ) in the name of the Lord . * And it came to pass (5633 ), as he went (5629 ) into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat (5629 ) bread on the sabbath day , that they watched (5713 ) (5734 ) him . * And , behold (5628 ), there was (5713 ) a certain man before him which had the dropsy . * And Jesus answering (5679 ) spake (5627 ) unto the lawyers and Pharisees , saying (5723 ), Is it lawful (5748 ) to heal (5721 ) on the sabbath day ? * And they held their peace (5656 ). And he took (5637 ) him , and healed (5662 ) him , and let him go (5656 ); * And answered (5679 ) them , saying (5627 ), Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen (5695 ) into a pit , and will not straightway pull him out (5692 ) on the sabbath day ? * And they could (5656 ) not answer him again (5677 ) to these things . * And he put forth (5707 ) a parable to those which were bidden (5772 ), when he marked (5723 ) how they chose out (5710 ) the chief rooms ; saying (5723 ) unto them , * When thou art bidden (5686 ) of any man to a wedding , sit not down (5686 ) in the highest room ; lest a more honourable man than thou be (5753 ) bidden (5772 ) of him ; * And he that bade (5660 ) thee and him come (5631 ) and say (5692 ) to thee , Give (5628 ) this man place ; and thou begin (5672 ) with shame to take (5721 ) the lowest room . * But when thou art bidden (5686 ), go (5679 ) and sit down (5657 ) in the lowest room ; that when he that bade (5761 ) thee cometh (5632 ), he may say (5632 ) unto thee , Friend , go up (5628 ) higher : then shalt thou have (5704 ) worship in the presence of them that sit at meat (5740 ) with thee . * For whosoever exalteth (5723 ) himself shall be abased (5701 ); and he that humbleth (5723 ) himself shall be exalted (5701 ). * Then said he (5707 ) also to him that bade (5761 ) him , When thou makest (5725 ) a dinner or a supper , call (5720 ) not thy friends , nor thy brethren , neither thy kinsmen , nor thy rich neighbours ; lest they also bid thee again (5661 ), and a recompence be made (5638 ) thee . * But when thou makest (5725 ) a feast , call (5720 ) the poor , the maimed , the lame , the blind : * And thou shalt be (5704 ) blessed ; for they cannot (5719 ) recompense (5629 ) thee : for thou shalt be recompensed (5701 ) at the resurrection of the just . * And when one of them that sat at meat with him (5740 ) heard (5660 ) these things , he said (5627 ) unto him , Blessed is he that shall eat (5695 ) bread in the kingdom of God . * Then said he (5627 ) unto him , A certain man made (5656 ) a great supper , and bade (5656 ) many : * And sent (5656 ) his servant at supper time to say (5629 ) to them that were bidden (5772 ), Come (5737 ); for all things are (5748 ) now ready . * And they all with one consent began (5662 ) to make excuse (5738 ). The first said (5627 ) unto him , I have bought (5656 ) a piece of ground , and I must (5719 ) needs go (5629 ) and see (5629 ) it : I pray (5719 ) thee have (5720 ) me excused (5772 ). * And another said (5627 ), I have bought (5656 ) five yoke of oxen , and I go (5736 ) to prove (5658 ) them : I pray (5719 ) thee have (5720 ) me excused (5772 ). * And another said (5627 ), I have married (5656 ) a wife , and therefore I cannot (5736 ) come (5629 ). * So that servant came (5637 ), and shewed (5656 ) his lord these things . Then the master of the house being angry (5685 ) said (5627 ) to his servant , Go out (5628 ) quickly into the streets and lanes of the city , and bring in (5628 ) hither the poor , and the maimed , and the halt , and the blind . * And the servant said (5627 ), Lord , it is done (5754 ) as thou hast commanded (5656 ), and yet there is (5748 ) room . * And the lord said (5627 ) unto the servant , Go out (5628 ) into the highways and hedges , and compel (5657 ) them to come in (5629 ), that my house may be filled (5686 ). * For I say (5719 ) unto you , That none of those men which were bidden (5772 ) shall taste (5695 ) of my supper . * And there went (5711 ) great multitudes with him : and he turned (5651 ), and said (5627 ) unto them , * If any man come (5736 ) to me , and hate (5719 ) not his father , and mother , and wife , and children , and brethren , and sisters , yea , and his own life also , he cannot (5736 ) be (5750 ) my disciple . * And whosoever doth not bear (5719 ) his cross , and come (5736 ) after me , cannot (5736 ) be (5750 ) my disciple . * For which of you , intending (5723 ) to build (5658 ) a tower , sitteth not down (5660 ) first , and counteth (5719 ) the cost , whether he have (5719 ) sufficient to finish it ? * Lest haply , after he hath laid (5631 ) the foundation , and is not able (5723 ) to finish (5658 ) it , all that behold (5723 ) it begin (5672 ) to mock (5721 ) him , * Saying (5723 ), This man began (5662 ) to build (5721 ), and was not able (5656 ) to finish (5658 ). * Or what king , going (5740 ) to make (5629 ) war against another king , sitteth not down (5660 ) first , and consulteth (5736 ) whether he be (5748 ) able with ten thousand to meet (5658 ) him that cometh (5740 ) against him with twenty thousand ? * Or else , while the other is (5752 ) yet a great way off , he sendeth (5660 ) an ambassage , and desireth (5719 ) conditions of peace . * So likewise , whosoever he be of you that forsaketh (5731 ) not all that he hath (5723 ), he cannot (5736 ) be (5750 ) my disciple . * Salt is good : but if the salt have lost his savour (5686 ), wherewith shall it be seasoned (5701 )? * It is (5748 ) neither fit for the land , nor yet for the dunghill ; but men cast (5719 ) it out . He that hath (5723 ) ears to hear (5721 ), let him hear (5720 ). * Then drew near (5713 ) (5723 ) unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear (5721 ) him . * And the Pharisees and scribes murmured (5707 ), saying (5723 ), This man receiveth (5736 ) sinners , and eateth (5719 ) with them . * And he spake (5627 ) this parable unto them , saying (5723 ), * What man of you , having (5723 ) an hundred sheep , if he lose (5660 ) one of them , doth not leave (5719 ) the ninety and nine in the wilderness , and go (5736 ) after that which is lost (5756 ), until he find (5632 ) it ? * And when he hath found (5631 ) it , he layeth (5719 ) it on his shoulders , rejoicing (5723 ). * And when he cometh (5631 ) home , he calleth together (5719 ) his friends and neighbours , saying (5723 ) unto them , Rejoice (5645 ) with me ; for I have found (5627 ) my sheep which was lost (5756 ). * I say (5719 ) unto you , that likewise joy shall be (5704 ) in heaven over one sinner that repenteth (5723 ), more than over ninety and nine just persons , which need (5719 ) no repentance . * Either what woman having (5723 ) ten pieces of silver , if she lose (5661 ) one piece , doth not light (5719 ) a candle , and sweep (5719 ) the house , and seek (5719 ) diligently till she find (5632 ) it ? * And when she hath found (5631 ) it , she calleth her friends and her neighbours together (5731 ), saying (5723 ), Rejoice (5645 ) with me ; for I have found (5627 ) the piece which I had lost (5656 ). * Likewise , I say (5719 ) unto you , there is (5736 ) joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth (5723 ). * And he said (5627 ), A certain man had (5707 ) two sons : * And the younger of them said (5627 ) to his father , Father , give (5628 ) me the portion of goods that falleth (5723 ) to me . And he divided (5627 ) unto them his living . * And not many days after the younger son gathered all together (5631 ), and took his journey (5656 ) into a far country , and there wasted (5656 ) his substance with riotous living (5723 ). * And when he had spent (5660 ) all , there arose (5633 ) a mighty famine in that land ; and he began (5662 ) to be in want (5745 ). * And he went (5679 ) and joined himself (5681 ) to a citizen of that country ; and he sent (5656 ) him into his fields to feed (5721 ) swine . * And he would fain (5707 ) have filled (5658 ) his belly with the husks that the swine did eat (5707 ): and no man gave (5707 ) unto him . * And when he came (5631 ) to himself , he said (5627 ), How many hired servants of my fathers have bread enough and to spare (5719 ), and I perish (5731 ) with hunger ! * I will arise (5631 ) and go (5695 ) to my father , and will say (5692 ) unto him , Father , I have sinned (5627 ) against heaven , and before thee , * And am (5748 ) no more worthy to be called (5683 ) thy son : make (5657 ) me as one of thy hired servants . * And he arose (5631 ), and came (5627 ) to his father . But when he was yet a great way off (5723 ), his father saw (5627 ) him , and had compassion (5675 ), and ran (5631 ), and fell (5627 ) on his neck , and kissed (5656 ) him . * And the son said (5627 ) unto him , Father , I have sinned (5627 ) against heaven , and in thy sight , and am (5748 ) no more worthy to be called (5683 ) thy son . * But the father said (5627 ) to his servants , Bring forth (5657 ) the best robe , and put it on (5657 ) him ; and put (5628 ) a ring on his hand , and shoes on his feet : * And bring hither (5660 ) the fatted calf , and kill (5657 ) it ; and let us eat (5631 ), and be merry (5686 ): * For this my son was (5713 ) dead , and is alive again (5656 ); he was (5713 ) lost (5756 ), and is found (5681 ). And they began (5662 ) to be merry (5745 ). * Now his elder son was (5713 ) in the field : and as he came (5740 ) and drew nigh (5656 ) to the house , he heard (5656 ) musick and dancing . * And he called (5666 ) one of the servants , and asked (5711 ) what these things meant (5751 ). * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Thy brother is come (5719 ); and thy father hath killed (5656 ) the fatted calf , because he hath received (5627 ) him safe and sound (5723 ). * And he was angry (5681 ), and would (5707 ) not go in (5629 ): therefore came his father out (5631 ), and intreated (5707 ) him . * And he answering (5679 ) said (5627 ) to his father , Lo (5628 ), these many years do I serve (5719 ) thee , neither transgressed I (5627 ) at any time thy commandment : and yet thou never gavest (5656 ) me a kid , that I might make merry (5686 ) with my friends : * But as soon as this thy son was come (5627 ), which hath devoured (5631 ) thy living with harlots , thou hast killed (5656 ) for him the fatted calf . * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Son , thou art (5748 ) ever with me , and all that I have is (5748 ) thine . * It was meet (5713 ) that we should make merry (5683 ), and be glad (5646 ): for this thy brother was (5713 ) dead , and is alive again (5656 ); and was (5713 ) lost (5756 ), and is found (5681 ). * And he said (5707 ) also unto his disciples , There was (5713 ) a certain rich man , which had (5707 ) a steward ; and the same was accused (5681 ) unto him that he had wasted (5723 ) his goods (5723 ). * And he called (5660 ) him , and said (5627 ) unto him , How is it that I hear (5719 ) this of thee ? give (5628 ) an account of thy stewardship ; for thou mayest be (5695 ) no longer steward (5721 ). * Then the steward said (5627 ) within himself , What shall I do (5661 )? for my lord taketh away (5731 ) from me the stewardship : I cannot (5719 ) dig (5721 ); to beg (5721 ) I am ashamed (5727 ). * I am resolved (5627 ) what to do (5692 ), that , when I am put out (5686 ) of the stewardship , they may receive (5667 ) me into their houses . * So he called (5666 ) every one of his lords debtors unto him , and said (5707 ) unto the first , How much owest thou (5719 ) unto my lord ? * And he said (5627 ), An hundred measures of oil . And he said (5627 ) unto him , Take (5663 ) thy bill , and sit down (5660 ) quickly , and write (5657 ) fifty . * Then said he (5627 ) to another , And how much owest (5719 ) thou ? And he said (5627 ), An hundred measures of wheat . And he said (5719 ) unto him , Take (5663 ) thy bill , and write (5657 ) fourscore . * And the lord commended (5656 ) the unjust steward , because he had done (5656 ) wisely : for the children of this world are (5748 ) in their generation wiser than the children of light . * And I say (5719 ) unto you , Make (5657 ) to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness ; that , when ye fail (5632 ), they may receive (5667 ) you into everlasting habitations . * He that is faithful in that which is least is (5748 ) faithful also in much : and he that is unjust in the least is (5748 ) unjust also in much . * If therefore ye have not been (5633 ) faithful in the unrighteous mammon , who will commit to your trust (5692 ) the true riches ? * And if ye have not been (5633 ) faithful in that which is another mans , who shall give (5692 ) you that which is your own ? * No servant can (5736 ) serve (5721 ) two masters : for either he will hate (5692 ) the one , and love (5692 ) the other ; or else he will hold (5695 ) to the one , and despise (5692 ) the other . Ye cannot (5736 ) serve (5721 ) God and mammon . * And the Pharisees also , who were (5723 ) covetous , heard (5707 ) all these things : and they derided (5707 ) him . * And he said (5627 ) unto them , Ye are (5748 ) they which justify (5723 ) yourselves before men ; but God knoweth (5719 ) your hearts : for that which is highly esteemed among men is (5748 ) abomination in the sight of God . * The law and the prophets were until John : since that time the kingdom of God is preached (5743 ), and every man presseth (5731 ) into it . * And it is (5748 ) easier for heaven and earth to pass (5629 ), than one tittle of the law to fail (5629 ). * Whosoever putteth away (5723 ) his wife , and marrieth (5723 ) another , committeth adultery (5719 ): and whosoever marrieth (5723 ) her that is put away (5772 ) from her husband committeth adultery (5719 ). * There was (5713 ) a certain rich man , which was clothed (5710 ) in purple and fine linen , and fared (5746 ) sumptuously every day : * And there was (5713 ) a certain beggar named Lazarus , which was laid (5718 ) at his gate , full of sores (5772 ), * And desiring (5723 ) to be fed (5683 ) with the crumbs which fell (5723 ) from the rich mans table : moreover the dogs came (5740 ) and licked (5707 ) his sores . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that the beggar died (5629 ), and was carried (5683 ) by the angels into Abrahams bosom : the rich man also died (5627 ), and was buried (5648 ); * And in hell he lift up (5660 ) his eyes , being (5723 ) in torments , and seeth (5719 ) Abraham afar off , and Lazarus in his bosom . * And he cried (5660 ) and said (5627 ), Father Abraham , have mercy (5657 ) on me , and send (5657 ) Lazarus , that he may dip (5661 ) the tip of his finger in water , and cool (5661 ) my tongue ; for I am tormented (5743 ) in this flame . * But Abraham said (5627 ), Son , remember (5682 ) that thou in thy lifetime receivedst (5627 ) thy good things , and likewise Lazarus evil things : but now he is comforted (5743 ), and thou art tormented (5743 ). * And beside all this , between us and you there is a great gulf fixed (5769 ): so that they which would (5723 ) pass (5629 ) from hence to you cannot (5741 ); neither can they pass (5725 ) to us , that would come from thence . * Then he said (5627 ), I pray (5719 ) thee therefore , father , that thou wouldest send (5661 ) him to my fathers house : * For I have (5719 ) five brethren ; that he may testify (5741 ) unto them , lest they also come (5632 ) into this place of torment . * Abraham saith (5719 ) unto him , They have (5719 ) Moses and the prophets ; let them hear (5657 ) them . * And he said (5627 ), Nay , father Abraham : but if one went (5680 ) unto them from the dead , they will repent (5692 ). * And he said (5627 ) unto him , If they hear (5719 ) not Moses and the prophets , neither will they be persuaded (5701 ), though one rose (5632 ) from the dead . * Then said he (5627 ) unto the disciples , It is (5748 ) impossible but that offences will come (5629 ): but woe unto him , through whom they come (5736 )! * It were better (5719 ) for him that a millstone were hanged (5736 ) about his neck , and he cast (5769 ) into the sea , than that he should offend (5661 ) one of these little ones . * Take heed (5720 ) to yourselves : If thy brother trespass (5632 ) against thee , rebuke (5657 ) him ; and if he repent (5661 ), forgive (5628 ) him . * And if he trespass (5632 ) against thee seven times in a day , and seven times in a day turn again (5661 ) to thee , saying (5723 ), I repent (5719 ); thou shalt forgive (5692 ) him . * And the apostles said (5627 ) unto the Lord , Increase (5628 ) our faith . * And the Lord said (5627 ), If ye had (5707 ) faith as a grain of mustard seed , ye might say (5707 ) unto this sycamine tree , Be thou plucked up by the root (5682 ), and be thou planted (5682 ) in the sea ; and it should obey (5656 ) you . * But which of you , having (5723 ) a servant plowing (5723 ) or feeding cattle (5723 ), will say (5692 ) unto him by and by , when he is come (5631 ) from the field , Go (5631 ) and sit down to meat (5669 )? * And will not rather say (5692 ) unto him , Make ready (5657 ) wherewith I may sup (5661 ), and gird thyself (5671 ), and serve (5720 ) me , till I have eaten (5632 ) and drunken (5632 ); and afterward thou shalt eat (5695 ) and drink (5695 )? * Doth he (5719 ) thank that servant because he did (5656 ) the things that were commanded (5685 ) him ? I trow (5719 ) not . * So likewise ye , when ye shall have done (5661 ) all those things which are commanded (5685 ) you , say (5720 ), We are (5748 ) unprofitable servants : we have done (5658 ) that which was our duty (5707 ) to do (5758 ). * And it came to pass (5633 ), as he went (5738 ) to Jerusalem , that he passed (5711 ) through the midst of Samaria and Galilee . * And as he entered (5740 ) into a certain village , there met (5656 ) him ten men that were lepers , which stood (5627 ) afar off : * And they lifted up (5656 ) their voices , and said (5723 ), Jesus , Master , have mercy (5657 ) on us . * And when he saw (5631 ) them , he said (5627 ) unto them , Go (5679 ) shew (5657 ) yourselves unto the priests . And it came to pass (5633 ), that , as they went (5721 ), they were cleansed (5681 ). * And one of them , when he saw (5631 ) that he was healed (5681 ), turned back (5656 ), and with a loud voice glorified (5723 ) God , * And fell down (5627 ) on his face at his feet , giving him thanks (5723 ): and he was (5713 ) a Samaritan . * And Jesus answering (5679 ) said (5627 ), Were there not ten cleansed (5681 )? but where are the nine ? * There are not found (5681 ) that returned (5660 ) to give (5629 ) glory to God , save this stranger . * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Arise (5631 ), go thy way (5737 ): thy faith hath made thee whole (5758 ). * And when he was demanded (5685 ) of the Pharisees , when the kingdom of God should come (5736 ), he answered (5662 ) them and said (5627 ), The kingdom of God cometh (5736 ) not with observation : * Neither shall they say (5692 ), Lo (5628 ) here ! or , lo (5628 ) there ! for , behold (5628 ), the kingdom of God is (5748 ) within you . * And he said (5627 ) unto the disciples , The days will come (5695 ), when ye shall desire (5692 ) to see (5629 ) one of the days of the Son of man , and ye shall not see (5695 ) it . * And they shall say (5692 ) to you , See (5628 ) here ; or , see (5628 ) there : go not after (5632 ) them , nor follow (5661 ) them . * For as the lightning , that lighteneth (5723 ) out of the one part under heaven , shineth (5719 ) unto the other part under heaven ; so shall also the Son of man be (5704 ) in his day . * But first must (5748 ) he suffer (5629 ) many things , and be rejected (5683 ) of this generation . * And as it was (5633 ) in the days of Noe , so shall it be (5704 ) also in the days of the Son of man . * They did eat (5707 ), they drank (5707 ), they married wives (5707 ), they were given in marriage (5712 ), until the day that Noe entered (5627 ) into the ark , and the flood came (5627 ), and destroyed (5656 ) them all . * Likewise also as it was (5633 ) in the days of Lot ; they did eat (5707 ), they drank (5707 ), they bought (5707 ), they sold (5707 ), they planted (5707 ), they builded (5707 ); * But the same day that Lot went (5627 ) out of Sodom it rained (5656 ) fire and brimstone from heaven , and destroyed (5656 ) them all . * Even thus shall it be (5704 ) in the day when the Son of man is revealed (5743 ). * In that day , he which shall be (5704 ) upon the housetop , and his stuff in the house , let him not come down (5628 ) to take it away (5658 ): and he that is in the field , let him likewise not return (5657 ) back . * Remember (5720 ) Lots wife . * Whosoever shall seek (5661 ) to save (5658 ) his life shall lose (5692 ) it ; and whosoever shall lose (5661 ) his life shall preserve (5692 ) it . * I tell (5719 ) you , in that night there shall be (5704 ) two men in one bed ; the one shall be taken (5701 ), and the other shall be left (5701 ). * Two women shall be (5704 ) grinding (5723 ) together ; the one shall be taken (5701 ), and the other left (5701 ). * Two men shall be (5704 ) in the field ; the one shall be taken (5701 ), and the other left (5701 ). * And they answered (5679 ) and said (5719 ) unto him , Where , Lord ? And he said (5627 ) unto them , Wheresoever the body is , thither will the eagles be gathered together (5701 ). * And he spake (5707 ) a parable unto them to this end , that men ought (5750 ) always to pray (5738 ), and not to faint (5721 ); * Saying (5723 ), There was (5713 ) in a city a judge , which feared (5740 ) not God , neither regarded (5746 ) man : * And there was (5713 ) a widow in that city ; and she came (5711 ) unto him , saying (5723 ), Avenge (5657 ) me of mine adversary . * And he would (5656 ) not for a while : but afterward he said (5627 ) within himself , Though I fear (5736 ) not God , nor regard (5743 ) man ; * Yet because this widow troubleth (5721 ) me , I will avenge (5692 ) her , lest by her continual coming (5740 ) she weary (5725 ) me . * And the Lord said (5627 ), Hear (5657 ) what the unjust judge saith (5719 ). * And shall not God avenge (5692 ) his own elect , which cry (5723 ) day and night unto him , though he bear long (5723 ) with them ? * I tell (5719 ) you that he will (5692 ) avenge them speedily . Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh (5631 ), shall he find (5692 ) faith on the earth ? * And he spake (5627 ) this parable unto certain which trusted (5756 ) in themselves that they were (5748 ) righteous , and despised (5723 ) others : * Two men went up (5627 ) into the temple to pray (5664 ); the one a Pharisee , and the other a publican . * The Pharisee stood (5685 ) and prayed (5711 ) thus with himself , God , I thank (5719 ) thee , that I am (5748 ) not as other men are , extortioners , unjust , adulterers , or even as this publican . * I fast (5719 ) twice in the week , I give tithes (5719 ) of all that I possess (5736 ). * And the publican , standing (5761 ) afar off , would (5707 ) not lift up (5658 ) so much as his eyes unto heaven , but smote (5707 ) upon his breast , saying (5723 ), God be merciful (5682 ) to me a sinner . * I tell (5719 ) you , this man went down (5627 ) to his house justified (5772 ) rather than the other : for every one that exalteth (5723 ) himself shall be abased (5701 ); and he that humbleth (5723 ) himself shall be exalted (5701 ). * And they brought (5707 ) unto him also infants , that he would touch (5735 ) them : but when his disciples saw (5631 ) it , they rebuked (5656 ) them . * But Jesus called (5666 ) them unto him , and said (5627 ), Suffer (5628 ) little children to come (5738 ) unto me , and forbid (5720 ) them not : for of such is (5748 ) the kingdom of God . * Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , Whosoever shall not receive (5667 ) the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter (5632 ) therein . * And a certain ruler asked (5656 ) him , saying (5723 ), Good Master , what shall I do (5660 ) to inherit (5692 ) eternal life ? * And Jesus said (5627 ) unto him , Why callest thou (5719 ) me good ? none is good , save one , that is , God . * Thou knowest (5758 ) the commandments , Do not commit adultery (5661 ), Do not kill (5661 ), Do not steal (5661 ), Do not bear false witness (5661 ), Honour (5720 ) thy father and thy mother . * And he said (5627 ), All these have I kept (5668 ) from my youth up . * Now when Jesus heard (5660 ) these things , he said (5627 ) unto him , Yet lackest (5719 ) thou one thing : sell (5657 ) all that thou hast (5719 ), and distribute (5628 ) unto the poor , and thou shalt have (5692 ) treasure in heaven : and come (5773 ), follow (5720 ) me . * And when he heard (5660 ) this , he was (5633 ) very sorrowful : for he was (5713 ) very rich . * And when Jesus saw (5631 ) that he was (5637 ) very sorrowful , he said (5627 ), How hardly shall they that have (5723 ) riches enter (5695 ) into the kingdom of God ! * For it is (5748 ) easier for a camel to go (5629 ) through a needles eye , than for a rich man to enter (5629 ) into the kingdom of God . * And they that heard (5660 ) it said (5627 ), Who then can be (5736 ) saved (5683 )? * And he said (5627 ), The things which are impossible with men are (5748 ) possible with God . * Then Peter said (5627 ), Lo (5628 ), we have left (5656 ) all , and followed (5656 ) thee . * And he said (5627 ) unto them , Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , There is (5748 ) no man that hath left (5656 ) house , or parents , or brethren , or wife , or children , for the kingdom of Gods sake , * Who shall not receive (5632 ) manifold more in this present time , and in the world to come (5740 ) life everlasting . * Then he took (5631 ) unto him the twelve , and said (5627 ) unto them , Behold (5628 ), we go up (5719 ) to Jerusalem , and all things that are written (5772 ) by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished (5701 ). * For he shall be delivered (5701 ) unto the Gentiles , and shall be mocked (5701 ), and spitefully entreated (5701 ), and spitted on (5701 ): * And they shall scourge (5660 ) him , and put him to death (5692 ): and the third day he shall rise again (5698 ). * And they understood (5656 ) none of these things : and this saying was (5713 ) hid (5772 ) from them , neither knew they (5707 ) the things which were spoken (5746 ). * And it came to pass (5633 ), that as he was come nigh (5721 ) unto Jericho , a certain blind man sat (5711 ) by the way side begging (5723 ): * And hearing (5660 ) the multitude pass by (5740 ), he asked (5711 ) what it meant (5751 ). * And they told (5656 ) him , that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by (5736 ). * And he cried (5656 ), saying (5723 ), Jesus , thou Son of David , have mercy (5657 ) on me . * And they which went before (5723 ) rebuked (5707 ) him , that he should hold his peace (5661 ): but he cried (5707 ) so much the more , Thou Son of David , have mercy (5657 ) on me . * And Jesus stood (5685 ), and commanded (5656 ) him to be brought (5683 ) unto him : and when he was come near (5660 ), he asked (5656 ) him , * Saying (5723 ), What wilt thou (5719 ) that I shall do (5661 ) unto thee ? And he said (5627 ), Lord , that I may receive my sight (5661 ). * And Jesus said (5627 ) unto him , Receive thy sight (5657 ): thy faith hath saved (5758 ) thee . * And immediately he received his sight (5656 ), and followed (5707 ) him , glorifying (5723 ) God : and all the people , when they saw (5631 ) it , gave (5656 ) praise unto God . * And Jesus entered (5631 ) and passed through (5711 ) Jericho . * And , behold (5628 ), there was a man named (5746 ) Zacchaeus , which was (5713 ) the chief among the publicans , and he was (5713 ) rich . * And he sought (5707 ) to see (5629 ) Jesus who he was (5748 ); and could (5711 ) not for the press , because he was (5713 ) little of stature . * And he ran (5631 ) before , and climbed up (5627 ) into a sycomore tree to see (5632 ) him : for he was (5707 ) to pass (5738 ) that way . * And when Jesus came (5627 ) to the place , he looked up (5660 ), and saw (5627 ) him , and said (5627 ) unto him , Zacchaeus , make haste (5660 ), and come down (5628 ); for to day I must (5748 ) abide (5658 ) at thy house . * And he made haste (5660 ), and came down (5627 ), and received (5662 ) him joyfully (5723 ). * And when they saw (5631 ) it , they all murmured (5707 ), saying (5723 ), That he was gone (5627 ) to be guest (5658 ) with a man that is a sinner . * And Zacchaeus stood (5685 ), and said (5627 ) unto the Lord ; Behold (5628 ), Lord , the half of my goods (5723 ) I give (5719 ) to the poor ; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation (5656 ), I restore (5719 ) him fourfold . * And Jesus said (5627 ) unto him , This day is salvation come (5633 ) to this house , forsomuch as he also is (5748 ) a son of Abraham . * For the Son of man is come (5627 ) to seek (5658 ) and to save (5658 ) that which was lost (5756 ). * And as they heard (5723 ) these things , he added (5631 ) and spake (5627 ) a parable , because he was (5750 ) nigh to Jerusalem , and because they thought (5721 ) that the kingdom of God should (5719 ) immediately appear (5745 ). * He said (5627 ) therefore , A certain nobleman went (5675 ) into a far country to receive (5629 ) for himself a kingdom , and to return (5658 ). * And he called (5660 ) his ten servants , and delivered (5656 ) them ten pounds , and said (5627 ) unto them , Occupy (5663 ) till I come (5736 ). * But his citizens hated (5707 ) him , and sent (5656 ) a message after him , saying (5723 ), We will not have (5719 ) this man to reign (5658 ) over us . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that when he was returned (5629 ), having received (5631 ) the kingdom , then he commanded (5627 ) these servants to be called (5683 ) unto him , to whom he had given (5656 ) the money , that he might know (5632 ) how much every man had gained by trading (5662 ). * Then came (5633 ) the first , saying (5723 ), Lord , thy pound hath gained (5662 ) ten pounds . * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Well , thou good servant : because thou hast been (5633 ) faithful in a very little , have (5723 ) thou authority (5749 ) over ten cities . * And the second came (5627 ), saying (5723 ), Lord , thy pound hath gained (5656 ) five pounds . * And he said (5627 ) likewise to him , Be (5737 ) thou also over five cities . * And another came (5627 ), saying (5723 ), Lord , behold (5628 ), here is thy pound , which I have (5707 ) kept laid up (5740 ) in a napkin : * For I feared (5711 ) thee , because thou art (5748 ) an austere man : thou takest up (5719 ) that thou layedst not down (5656 ), and reapest (5719 ) that thou didst not sow (5656 ). * And he saith (5719 ) unto him , Out of thine own mouth will I judge (5692 ) thee , thou wicked servant . Thou knewest (5715 ) that I was (5748 ) an austere man , taking up (5723 ) that I laid not down (5656 ), and reaping (5723 ) that I did not sow (5656 ): * Wherefore then gavest not thou (5656 ) my money into the bank , that at my coming (5631 ) I might have required (5656 ) mine own with usury ? * And he said (5627 ) unto them that stood by (5761 ), Take (5657 ) from him the pound , and give (5628 ) it to him that hath (5723 ) ten pounds . * (And they said (5627 ) unto him , Lord , he hath (5719 ) ten pounds .) * For I say (5719 ) unto you , That unto every one which hath (5723 ) shall be given (5701 ); and from him that hath (5723 ) not , even that he hath (5719 ) shall be taken away (5701 ) from him . * But those mine enemies , which would (5660 ) not that I should reign (5658 ) over them , bring (5628 ) hither , and slay (5657 ) them before me . * And when he had thus spoken (5631 ), he went (5711 ) before , ascending up (5723 ) to Jerusalem . * And it came to pass (5633 ), when he was come nigh (5656 ) to Bethphage and Bethany , at the mount called (5746 ) the mount of Olives , he sent (5656 ) two of his disciples , * Saying (5631 ), Go ye (5720 ) into the village over against you ; in the which at your entering (5740 ) ye shall find (5692 ) a colt tied (5772 ), whereon yet never man sat (5656 ): loose (5660 ) him , and bring (5628 ) him hither . * And if any man ask (5725 ) you , Why do ye loose (5719 ) him ? thus shall ye say (5692 ) unto him , Because the Lord hath (5719 ) need of him . * And they that were sent (5772 ) went their way (5631 ), and found (5627 ) even as he had said (5627 ) unto them . * And as they were loosing (5723 ) the colt , the owners thereof said (5627 ) unto them , Why loose ye (5719 ) the colt ? * And they said (5627 ), The Lord hath (5719 ) need of him . * And they brought (5627 ) him to Jesus : and they cast their garments upon the colt , and (5660 ) they set Jesus thereon (5656 ). * And as he went (5740 ), they spread (5707 ) their clothes in the way . * And when he was come nigh (5723 ), even now at the descent of the mount of Olives , the whole multitude of the disciples began (5662 ) to rejoice (5723 ) and praise (5721 ) God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen (5627 ); * Saying (5723 ), Blessed (5772 ) be the King that cometh (5740 ) in the name of the Lord : peace in heaven , and glory in the highest . * And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said (5627 ) unto him , Master , rebuke (5657 ) thy disciples . * And he answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ) unto them , I tell (5719 ) you that , if these should hold their peace (5661 ), the stones would immediately cry out (5688 ). * And when he was come near (5656 ), he beheld (5631 ) the city , and wept (5656 ) over it , * Saying (5723 ), If thou hadst known (5627 ), even thou , at least in this thy day , the things which belong unto thy peace ! but now they are hid (5648 ) from thine eyes . * For the days shall come (5692 ) upon thee , that thine enemies shall cast a trench about (5692 ) thee , and compass thee round (5692 ), and keep thee in (5692 ) on every side , * And shall lay thee even with the ground (5692 ), and thy children within thee ; and they shall not leave (5692 ) in thee one stone upon another ; because thou knewest (5627 ) not the time of thy visitation . * And he went (5631 ) into the temple , and began (5662 ) to cast out (5721 ) them that sold (5723 ) therein , and them that bought (5723 ); * Saying (5723 ) unto them , It is written (5769 ), My house is (5748 ) the house of prayer : but ye have made (5656 ) it a den of thieves . * And he taught (5713 ) (5723 ) daily in the temple . But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought (5707 ) to destroy (5658 ) him , * And could not find (5707 ) what they might do (5661 ): for all the people were very attentive (5710 ) to hear (5723 ) him .
