Making a Personal Mark The absolute most difficult thing to know about the gospel
of Mark is that one, the name is a “identification concept”. These were notes
written by an assistant to the first Pope Simon Peter. Remember the rules of
being a Pharaoh the overwhelming majority of Pharaohs had at least 3 names if
not 5 full names after ascending to the throne of Adam. In the case of Jesus
in this gospel he is making his “Mark” on this document. the gospel of Mark is miss labeled. I can provide evidence
for said. To make a ..., to ... as identifying you as a signature "make
a ...". etc. this is not a name but a Sigle of identification name 1 Jesus 2 Emmanuelle 3 Simon Peter 4 Claudius; he actually lived much much longer than the
evil priest Paul would allow in documentation form. Claudius was not executed
by his soldiers, that is a fiction. He was Co Emperor with the Pharaoh named
Nero old name Paul for 15 years. Till Nero was executed under orders from
Vespasian, then Vespasian allowed 3 others to claim the chair. Each of which he
had killed or he killed them himself 1a x4. But Vespasian could not kill
Jesus. The followers of Paul could not deal with these facts so every scrap of documentation
would be destroyed by the Bishops of Lyon in about half a century e.g. 125 ce
actually by 3 or 4 successive bishops of Lyon. The Gospels had to reflect
Paul as good as Jesus as bad. 5 The East Face of Janus; the light bringer. The West face being in effect “father (Janus; Chronos
Father Time, Titan father of Zeus)” and Jesus being the East or son face. Apparently, John clears the path for Jesus. The 3 acts of Memento Mori are all over the place. Johns 1a execution came at the end of his 1a, b, and 2
interactions with Jesus. B being John Baptizes Jesus. 2 the ministry of Jesus. Mark 1 King
James Version (KJV) 1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son(East Face
of Janus) of God (West Face of Janus); 2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. 3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of
the Lord, make his paths straight. 4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of
repentance for the remission of sins. 5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of
Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing
their sins. 6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a
skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey; 7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me,
the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose. 8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you
with the Holy Ghost. 9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth
of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. 10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens
opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him: 11 And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved
Son, in whom I am well pleased. 12 And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness. 13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan;
and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him. 14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee,
preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at
hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew
his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you
to become fishers of men. 18 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him. 19 And when he had gone a little farther thence, he saw James the
son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their
nets. 20 And straightway he called them: and they left their father
Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him. 21 And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day
he entered into the synagogue, and taught. 22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as
one that had authority, and not as the scribes. 23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit;
and he cried out, 24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus
of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy
One of God. 25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of
him. 26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud
voice, he came out of him. 27 And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among
themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with
authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him. 28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region
round about Galilee. 29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they
entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they
tell him of her. 31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and
immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them. 32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all
that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils. 33 And all the city was gathered together at the door. 34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast
out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him. 35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went
out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. 36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him. 37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek
for thee. 38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may
preach there also: for therefore came I forth. 39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and
cast out devils. 40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down
to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and
touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. 42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed
from him, and he was cleansed. 43 And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; 44 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy
way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things
which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. 45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze
abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the
city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every
quarter. Mark 2 King
James Version (KJV)
2 And
again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he
was in the house. 2 And straightway many
were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no,
not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3 And they come unto him, bringing
one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4 And when they could not
come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and
when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the
palsy lay. 5 When Jesus saw their
faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. 6 But there was certain of
the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, 7 Why doth this man thus
speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? 8 And immediately when
Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he
said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9 Whether is it easier to
say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise,
and take up thy bed, and walk? 10 But that ye may know
that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the
sick of the palsy,) 11 I say unto thee, Arise,
and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. 12 And immediately he
arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they
were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion. 13 And he went forth again
by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them. 14 And as he passed by, he
saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto
him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. 15 And it came to pass,
that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also
together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed
him. 16 And when the scribes and
Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his
disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? 17 When Jesus heard it, he
saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they
that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. 18 And the disciples of
John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why
do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast
not? 19 And Jesus said unto
them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with
them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. 20 But the days will come,
when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast
in those days. 21 No man also seweth a
piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up
taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse. 22 And no man putteth new
wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine
is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new
bottles. 23 And it came to pass,
that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples
began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn. 24 And the Pharisees said
unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful? 25 And he said unto them,
Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he,
and they that were with him? 26 How he went into the
house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the
shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to
them which were with him? 27 And he said unto them,
The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: 28 Therefore the Son of man
is Lord also of the sabbath. 3 And he entered
again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which had a withered
hand. 2 And
they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they
might accuse him. 3 And he
saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth. 4 And he
saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil?
to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace. 5 And
when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the
hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand.
And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other. 6 And the
Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against
him, how they might destroy him. 7 But
Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude
from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea, 8 And
from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre
and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great things he did,
came unto him. 9 And he
spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him because of the
multitude, lest they should throng him. 10 For he
had healed many; insomuch that they pressed upon him for to touch him, as
many as had plagues. 11 And unclean
spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art
the Son of God. 12 And he
straitly charged them that they should not make him known. 13 And he
goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would: and they came unto
him. 14 And he
ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them
forth to preach, 15 And to
have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils: 16 And
Simon he surnamed Peter; 17 And
James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them
Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder: 18 And
Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the
son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite, 19 And
Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house. 20 And the
multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21 And
when his friends heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they
said, He is beside himself. 22 And the
scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the
prince of the devils casteth he out devils. 23 And he
called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out
Satan? 24 And if a
kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if
a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if
Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an
end. 27 No man
can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will
first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house. 28 Verily
I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and
blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: 29 But he
that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in
danger of eternal damnation. 30 Because
they said, He hath an unclean spirit. 31 There
came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him,
calling him. 32 And the
multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy
brethren without seek for thee. 33 And he
answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren? 34 And he
looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother
and my brethren! 35 For
whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister,
and mother. 4 And he
began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great
multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole
multitude was by the sea on the land. 2 And he
taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine, 3 Hearken;
Behold, there went out a sower to sow: 4 And it
came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the
air came and devoured it up. 5 And
some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it
sprang up, because it had no depth of earth: 6 But when
the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered
away. 7 And
some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded
no fruit. 8 And
other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased;
and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred. 9 And he
said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 10 And
when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the
parable. 11 And he
said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of
God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: 12 That
seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not
understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should
be forgiven them. 13 And he
said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all
parables? 14 The
sower soweth the word. 15 And
these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have
heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in
their hearts. 16 And
these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have
heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 17 And
have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when
affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are
offended. 18 And
these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, 19 And the
cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other
things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. 20 And
these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and
receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an
hundred. 21 And he
said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed?
and not to be set on a candlestick? 22 For
there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing
kept secret, but that it should come abroad. 23 If any
man have ears to hear, let him hear. 24 And he
said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall
be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. 25 For he
that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be
taken even that which he hath. 26 And he
said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; 27 And
should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up,
he knoweth not how. 28 For the
earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after
that the full corn in the ear. 29 But
when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle,
because the harvest is come. 30 And he
said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison
shall we compare it? 31 It is
like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less
than all the seeds that be in the earth: 32 But
when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and
shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the
shadow of it. 33 And
with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to
hear it. 34 But
without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he
expounded all things to his disciples. 35 And the
same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto
the other side. 36 And
when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the
ship. And there were also with him other little ships. 37 And
there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that
it was now full. 38 And he
was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him,
and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? 39 And he
arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the
wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 And he
said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith? 41 And
they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this,
that even the wind and the sea obey him? 5 And they
came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And
when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs
a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had
his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because
that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been
plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any
man tame him. 5 And
always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and
cutting himself with stones. 6 But
when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And
cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son
of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. 8 For he
said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. 9 And he
asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for
we are many. 10 And he
besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. 11 Now
there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. 12 And all
the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter
into them. 13 And
forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and
entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into
the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea. 14 And
they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country.
And they went out to see what it was that was done. 15 And
they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had
the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were
afraid. 16 And
they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the
devil, and also concerning the swine. 17 And
they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts. 18 And
when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil
prayed him that he might be with him. 19 Howbeit
Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell
them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on
thee. 20 And he
departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done
for him: and all men did marvel. 21 And
when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people
gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea. 22 And,
behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and
when he saw him, he fell at his feet, 23 And
besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death:
I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she
shall live. 24 And
Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him. 25 And a
certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 And had
suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and
was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, 27 When
she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she
said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And
straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body
that she was healed of that plague. 30 And
Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned
him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? 31 And his
disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest
thou, Who touched me? 32 And he
looked round about to see her that had done this thing. 33 But the
woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down
before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he
said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be
whole of thy plague. 35 While
he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain
which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further? 36 As soon
as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the
synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. 37 And he
suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of
James. 38 And he
cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and
them that wept and wailed greatly. 39 And
when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the
damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And
they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the
father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and
entereth in where the damsel was lying. 41 And he
took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being
interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. 42 And
straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve
years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment. 43 And he
charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that
something should be given her to eat. 6 And he
went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow
him. 2 And when
the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many
hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things?
and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works
are wrought by his hands? 3 Is not
this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of
Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended
at him. 4 But
Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own
country, and among his own kin, and in his own house. 5 And he
could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick
folk, and healed them. 6 And he
marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages,
teaching. 7 And he
called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and
gave them power over unclean spirits; 8 And
commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff
only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse: 9 But be
shod with sandals; and not put on two coats. 10 And he
said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till
ye depart from that place. 11 And
whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake
off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto
you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of
judgment, than for that city. 12 And
they went out, and preached that men should repent. 13 And
they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and
healed them. 14 And
king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he said, That
John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do shew
forth themselves in him. 15 Others
said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of
the prophets. 16 But
when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen
from the dead. 17 For
Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison
for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her. 18 For
John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's
wife. 19 Therefore
Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could
not: 20 For
Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed
him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly. 21 And
when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to
his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee; 22 And
when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod
and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me
whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee. 23 And he
sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto
the half of my kingdom. 24 And she
went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The
head of John the Baptist. 25 And she
came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that
thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. 26 And the
king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which
sat with him, he would not reject her. 27 And immediately
the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he
went and beheaded him in the prison, 28 And
brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave
it to her mother. 29 And
when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it
in a tomb. 30 And the
apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him all things,
both what they had done, and what they had taught. 31 And he
said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a
while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much
as to eat. 32 And
they departed into a desert place by ship privately. 33 And the
people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of
all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him. 34 And
Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion
toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began
to teach them many things. 35 And when
the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a
desert place, and now the time is far passed: 36 Send
them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the
villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat. 37 He
answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him,
Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat? 38 He
saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew,
they say, Five, and two fishes. 39 And he
commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass. 40 And
they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties. 41 And when
he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and
blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before
them; and the two fishes divided he among them all. 42 And
they did all eat, and were filled. 43 And
they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes. 44 And
they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men. 45 And
straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to
the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people. 46 And
when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray. 47 And
when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the
land. 48 And he
saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about
the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and
would have passed by them. 49 But
when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit,
and cried out: 50 For
they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and
saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid. 51 And he
went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore
amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered. 52 For
they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened. 53 And
when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to
the shore. 54 And
when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him, 55 And ran
through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those
that were sick, where they heard he was. 56 And
whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the
sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but
the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole. 7 Then
came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came
from Jerusalem. 2 And
when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say,
with unwashen, hands, they found fault. 3 For the
Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not,
holding the tradition of the elders. 4 And
when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many
other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of
cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables. 5 Then
the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to
the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands? 6 He
answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites,
as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart
is far from me. 7 Howbeit
in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8 For
laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the
washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. 9 And he
said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep
your own tradition. 10 For
Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or
mother, let him die the death: 11 But ye
say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to
say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free. 12 And ye
suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother; 13 Making
the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have
delivered: and many such like things do ye. 14 And
when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto
me every one of you, and understand: 15 There
is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the
things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man. 16 If any
man have ears to hear, let him hear. 17 And
when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him
concerning the parable. 18 And he
saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive,
that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile
him; 19 Because
it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the
draught, purging all meats? 20 And he
said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21 For
from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries,
fornications, murders, 22 Thefts,
covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy,
pride, foolishness: 23 All
these evil things come from within, and defile the man. 24 And
from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and
entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could not be
hid. 25 For a
certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and
came and fell at his feet: 26 The
woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he
would cast forth the devil out of her daughter. 27 But
Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to
take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. 28 And she
answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the
children's crumbs. 29 And he
said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy
daughter. 30 And
when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her
daughter laid upon the bed. 31 And again,
departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee,
through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis. 32 And
they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech;
and they beseech him to put his hand upon him. 33 And he
took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he
spit, and touched his tongue; 34 And
looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be
opened. 35 And
straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed,
and he spake plain. 36 And he
charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so
much the more a great deal they published it; 37 And
were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he
maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak. 8 In
those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus
called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them, 2 I have
compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days,
and have nothing to eat: 3 And if
I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for
divers of them came from far. 4 And his
disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread
here in the wilderness? 5 And he
asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven. 6 And he
commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves,
and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and
they did set them before the people. 7 And
they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also
before them. 8 So they
did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left
seven baskets. 9 And
they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away. 10 And
straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the
parts of Dalmanutha. 11 And the
Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign
from heaven, tempting him. 12 And he
sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a
sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this
generation. 13 And he
left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side. 14 Now the
disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them
more than one loaf. 15 And he
charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and
of the leaven of Herod. 16 And
they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread. 17 And
when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no
bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet
hardened? 18 Having
eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember? 19 When I
brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments
took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve. 20 And when
the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up?
And they said, Seven. 21 And he
said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand? 22 And he
cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to
touch him. 23 And he
took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had
spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. 24 And he
looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. 25 After that
he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was
restored, and saw every man clearly. 26 And he
sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to
any in the town. 27 And
Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and
by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I
am? 28 And
they answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others, One of the
prophets. 29 And he
saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith
unto him, Thou art the Christ. 30 And he
charged them that they should tell no man of him. 31 And he
began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be
rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed,
and after three days rise again. 32 And he
spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him. 33 But
when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter,
saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be
of God, but the things that be of men. 34 And
when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto
them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross,
and follow me. 35 For
whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life
for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. 36 For
what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his
own soul? 37 Or what
shall a man give in exchange for his soul? 38 Whosoever
therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and
sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he
cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels. 9 And he
said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand
here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God
come with power. 2 And
after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth
them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured
before them. 3 And his
raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can
white them. 4 And
there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus. 5 And
Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and
let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for
Elias. 6 For he
wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. 7 And there
was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud,
saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. 8 And
suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save
Jesus only with themselves. 9 And as
they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no
man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead. 10 And
they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the
rising from the dead should mean. 11 And
they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come? 12 And he
answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things;
and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and
be set at nought. 13 But I
say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him
whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him. 14 And
when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the
scribes questioning with them. 15 And
straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and
running to him saluted him. 16 And he
asked the scribes, What question ye with them? 17 And one
of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son,
which hath a dumb spirit; 18 And
wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with
his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should
cast him out; and they could not. 19 He
answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with
you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. 20 And
they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare
him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. 21 And he
asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said,
Of a child. 22 And
ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him:
but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. 23 Jesus
said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that
believeth. 24 And
straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I
believe; help thou mine unbelief. 25 When
Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit,
saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him,
and enter no more into him. 26 And the
spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead;
insomuch that many said, He is dead. 27 But
Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. 28 And
when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could
not we cast him out? 29 And he
said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and
fasting. 30 And
they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any
man should know it. 31 For he
taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into
the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he
shall rise the third day. 32 But
they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him. 33 And he
came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye
disputed among yourselves by the way? 34 But
they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who
should be the greatest. 35 And he sat
down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be
first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all. 36 And he
took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in
his arms, he said unto them, 37 Whosoever
shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever
shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me. 38 And
John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name,
and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us. 39 But
Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in
my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. 40 For he
that is not against us is on our part. 41 For
whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye
belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward. 42 And
whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is
better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast
into the sea. 43 And if
thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life
maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall
be quenched: 44 Where
their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 45 And if
thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into
life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never
shall be quenched: 46 Where
their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 47 And if
thine eye offend thee, 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 fire: 48 Where
their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 49 For
every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with
salt. 50 Salt is
good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it?
Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another. 10 And he
arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side
of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he
taught them again. 2 And the
Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his
wife? tempting him. 3 And he
answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? 4 And
they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her
away. 5 And
Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote
you this precept. 6 But
from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. 7 For
this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; 8 And
they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. 9 What
therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 10 And in
the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. 11 And he
saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another,
committeth adultery against her. 12 And if a
woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth
adultery. 13 And
they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his
disciples rebuked those that brought them. 14 But
when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the
little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the
kingdom of God. 15 Verily
I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little
child, he shall not enter therein. 16 And he
took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them. 17 And
when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to
him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal
life? 18 And
Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one,
that is, God. 19 Thou
knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal,
Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother. 20 And he
answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth. 21 Then
Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go
thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have
treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me. 22 And he
was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions. 23 And
Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they
that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! 24 And the
disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith
unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter
into the kingdom of God! 25 It is
easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to
enter into the kingdom of God. 26 And
they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be
saved? 27 And
Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God:
for with God all things are possible. 28 Then
Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee. 29 And
Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath
left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or
children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, 30 But he
shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and
sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the
world to come eternal life. 31 But
many that are first shall be last; and the last first. 32 And
they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and
they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the
twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him, 33 Saying,
Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the
chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and
shall deliver him to the Gentiles: 34 And
they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and
shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again. 35 And
James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would
that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire. 36 And he
said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you? 37 They said
unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other
on thy left hand, in thy glory. 38 But
Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I
drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? 39 And
they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink
of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal
shall ye be baptized: 40 But to
sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be
given to them for whom it is prepared. 41 And
when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and John. 42 But
Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are
accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their
great ones exercise authority upon them. 43 But so
shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be
your minister: 44 And
whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. 45 For
even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to
give his life a ransom for many. 46 And
they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a
great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the
highway side begging. 47 And
when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say,
Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me. 48 And
many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great
deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me. 49 And
Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind
man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee. 50 And he,
casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus. 51 And
Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee?
The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight. 52 And
Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And
immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way. 11 And
when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of
Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples, 2 And
saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon
as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat;
loose him, and bring him. 3 And if
any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him;
and straightway he will send him hither. 4 And
they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place
where two ways met; and they loose him. 5 And
certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the
colt? 6 And
they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go. 7 And
they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat
upon him. 8 And
many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the
trees, and strawed them in the way. 9 And
they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna;
Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: 10 Blessed
be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord:
Hosanna in the highest. 11 And
Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked
round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto
Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on
the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry: 13 And
seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any
thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the
time of figs was not yet. 14 And
Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever.
And his disciples heard it. 15 And
they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out
them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the
moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves; 16 And
would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple. 17 And he
taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all
nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves. 18 And the
scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him:
for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine. 19 And
when even was come, he went out of the city. 20 And in
the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the
roots. 21 And
Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree
which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And
Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For
verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou
removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but
shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall
have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore
I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye
receive them, and ye shall have them. 25 And
when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your
Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if
ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your
trespasses. 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, 28 And say
unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this
authority to do these things? 29 And
Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and
answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. 30 The
baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me. 31 And
they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will
say, Why then did ye not believe him? 32 But if
we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that
he was a prophet indeed. 33 And
they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith
unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things. 12 And he
began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and
set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower,
and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country. 2 And at
the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from
the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 And they
caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty. 4 And
again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and
wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled. 5 And
again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some,
and killing some. 6 Having
yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them,
saying, They will reverence my son. 7 But
those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill
him, and the inheritance shall be ours.' 8 And
they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard. 9 What
shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the
husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others. 10 And
have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is
become the head of the corner: 11 This
was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? 12 And
they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he
had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way. 13 And
they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch
him in his words. 14 And
when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true,
and carest for no man: 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? 15 Shall
we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto
them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. 16 And
they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and
superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's. 17 And
Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are
Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him. 18 Then
come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they
asked him, saying, 19 Master,
Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his wife behind him,
and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up
seed unto his brother. 20 Now
there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed. 21 And the
second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise. 22 And the
seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also. 23 In the
resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of
them? for the seven had her to wife. 24 And
Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not
the scriptures, neither the power of God? 25 For
when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in
marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven. 26 And as
touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how
in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God
of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? 27 He is
not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly
err. 28 And one
of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving
that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of
all? 29 And
Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The
Lord our God is one Lord: 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: this is the first
commandment. 31 And the
second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There
is none other commandment greater than these. 32 And the
scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is
one God; and there is none other but he: 33 And to
love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the
soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is
more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. 34 And
when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not
far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any
question. 35 And
Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes
that Christ is the son of David? 36 For
David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till
I make thine enemies thy footstool. 37 David
therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the
common people heard him gladly. 38 And he
said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in
long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces, 39 And the
chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts: 40 Which
devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive
greater damnation. 41 And
Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money
into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. 42 And
there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a
farthing. 43 And he
called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you,
That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into
the treasury: 44 For all
they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that
she had, even all her living. 13 And as
he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see
what manner of stones and what buildings are here! 2 And
Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall
not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as
he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and
John and Andrew asked him privately, 4 Tell
us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these
things shall be fulfilled? 5 And
Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you: 6 For
many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 7 And
when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such
things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. 8 For
nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there
shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles:
these are the beginnings of sorrows. 9 But
take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in
the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and
kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. 10 And the
gospel must first be published among all nations. 11 But
when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what
ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you
in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. 12 Now the
brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and
children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put
to death. 13 And ye
shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto
the end, the same shall be saved. 14 But
when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the
prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then
let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: 15 And let
him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter
therein, to take any thing out of his house: 16 And let
him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment. 17 But woe
to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 18 And
pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. 19 For in
those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the
creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. 20 And
except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but
for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days. 21 And
then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there;
believe him not: 22 For
false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and
wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. 23 But
take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. 24 But in
those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon
shall not give her light, 25 And the
stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. 26 And
then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and
glory. 27 And
then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the
four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of
heaven. 28 Now
learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth
forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: 29 So ye
in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is
nigh, even at the doors. 30 Verily
I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be
done. 31 Heaven
and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 32 But of
that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in
heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye
heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 For the
Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave
authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the
porter to watch. 35 Watch
ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even,
or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36 Lest
coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37 And what
I say unto you I say unto all, Watch. 14 After
two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the
chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and
put him to death. 2 But
they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people. 3 And
being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came
a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and
she brake the box, and poured it on his head. 4 And
there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was
this waste of the ointment made? 5 For it
might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given
to the poor. And they murmured against her. 6 And
Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work
on me. 7 For ye
have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good:
but me ye have not always. 8 She
hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the
burying. 9 Verily
I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the
whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial
of her. 10 And
Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him
unto them. 11 And
when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he
sought how he might conveniently betray him. 12 And the
first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples
said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat
the passover? 13 And he
sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city,
and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him. 14 And
wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master
saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 15 And he
will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for
us. 16 And his
disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto
them: and they made ready the passover. 17 And in
the evening he cometh with the twelve. 18 And as
they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which
eateth with me shall betray me. 19 And
they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and
another said, Is it I? 20 And he
answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in
the dish. 21 The Son
of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the
Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born. 22 And as
they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them,
and said, Take, eat: this is my body. 23 And he
took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all
drank of it. 24 And he
said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for
many. 25 Verily
I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day
that I drink it new in the kingdom of God. 26 And
when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives. 27 And
Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for
it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. 28 But
after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee. 29 But
Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I. 30 And
Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this
night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. 31 But he
spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in
any wise. Likewise also said they all. 32 And
they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his
disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray. 33 And he
taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to
be very heavy; 34 And
saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here,
and watch. 35 And he
went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were
possible, the hour might pass from him. 36 And he
said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup
from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt. 37 And he
cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest
thou? couldest not thou watch one hour? 38 Watch
ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but
the flesh is weak. 39 And
again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words. 40 And
when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,)
neither wist they what to answer him. 41 And he
cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest:
it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the
hands of sinners. 42 Rise
up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand. 43 And
immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with
him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the
scribes and the elders. 44 And he that
betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that
same is he; take him, and lead him away safely. 45 And as
soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master;
and kissed him. 46 And they
laid their hands on him, and took him. 47 And one
of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest,
and cut off his ear. 48 And
Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with
swords and with staves to take me? 49 I was
daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures
must be fulfilled. 50 And
they all forsook him, and fled. 51 And
there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his
naked body; and the young men laid hold on him: 52 And he
left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked. 53 And
they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief
priests and the elders and the scribes. 54 And
Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he
sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire. 55 And the
chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him
to death; and found none. 56 For
many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together. 57 And
there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying, 58 We
heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within
three days I will build another made without hands. 59 But
neither so did their witness agree together. 60 And the
high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou
nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? 61 But he
held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and
said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed? 62 And
Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand
of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. 63 Then
the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further
witnesses? 64 Ye have
heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty
of death. 65 And
some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to
say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of
their hands. 66 And as
Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high
priest: 67 And
when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And thou
also wast with Jesus of Nazareth. 68 But he
denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest. And he
went out into the porch; and the cock crew. 69 And a
maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of
them. 70 And he
denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter,
Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth
thereto. 71 But he
began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak. 72 And the
second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said
unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And when he
thought thereon, he wept. 15 And
straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the
elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him
away, and delivered him to Pilate. 2 And
Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto
them, Thou sayest it. 3 And the
chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing. 4 And
Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many
things they witness against thee. 5 But
Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled. 6 Now at
that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired. 7 And
there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection
with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection. 8 And the
multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto
them. 9 But
Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the
Jews? 10 For he
knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy. 11 But the
chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto
them. 12 And
Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do
unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews? 13 And
they cried out again, Crucify him. 14 Then
Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the
more exceedingly, Crucify him. 15 And so Pilate,
willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered
Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. 16 And the
soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call
together the whole band. 17 And
they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about
his head, 18 And
began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! 19 And
they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing
their knees worshipped him. 20 And
when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own
clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him. 21 And
they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country,
the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross. 22 And
they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The
place of a skull. 23 And
they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. 24 And
when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them,
what every man should take. 25 And it
was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And the
superscription of his accusation was written over, The King Of The Jews. 27 And
with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other
on his left. 28 And the
scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the
transgressors. 29 And
they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou
that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, 30 Save
thyself, and come down from the cross. 31 Likewise
also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He
saved others; himself he cannot save. 32 Let Christ
the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe.
And they that were crucified with him reviled him. 33 And
when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until
the ninth hour. 34 And at
the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama
sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou
forsaken me? 35 And
some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth
Elias. 36 And one
ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him
to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him
down. 37 And
Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. 38 And the
veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom. 39 And
when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out,
and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God. 40 There
were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary
the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; 41 (Who
also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and
many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem. 42 And now
when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day
before the sabbath, 43 Joseph
of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of
God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. 44 And
Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion,
he asked him whether he had been any while dead. 45 And
when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 And he
bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid
him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the
door of the sepulchre. 47 And
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid. 16 And when
the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and
Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. 2 And
very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the
sepulchre at the rising of the sun. 3 And
they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of
the sepulchre? 4 And
when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very
great. 5 And
entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side,
clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted. 6 And he
saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was
crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him. 7 But go
your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee:
there shall ye see him, as he said unto you. 8 And
they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and
were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid. 9 Now
when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to
Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. 10 And she
went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept. 11 And they,
when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed
not. 12 After
that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went
into the country. 13 And
they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them. 14 Afterward
he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with
their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which
had seen him after he was risen. 15 And he
said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature. 16 He that
believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be
damned. 17 And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out
devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They
shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt
them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 19 So then
after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat
on the right hand of God. 20 And
they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and
confirming the word with signs following. Amen. |
