  • 6:1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.
  • 6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said to them, Why do you that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
  • 6:3 And Jesus answering them said, Have you not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungered, and they which were with him;
  • 6:4 How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the show bread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
  • 6:5 And he said to them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
  • 6:6 And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.
  • 6:7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.
  • 6:8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the middle. And he arose and stood forth.
  • 6:9 Then said Jesus to them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
  • 6:10 And looking round about on them all, he said to the man, Stretch forth your hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
  • 6:11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
  • 6:12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
  • 6:13 And when it was day, he called to him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;
  • 6:14 Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
  • 6:15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,
  • 6:16 And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.
  • 6:17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
  • 6:18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
  • 6:19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
  • 6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be you poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
  • 6:21 Blessed are you that hunger now: for you shall be filled. Blessed are you that weep now: for you shall laugh.
  • 6:22 Blessed are you, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.
  • 6:23 Rejoice you in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers to the prophets.
  • 6:24 But woe to you that are rich! for you have received your consolation.
  • 6:25 Woe to you that are full! for you shall hunger. Woe to you that laugh now! for you shall mourn and weep.
  • 6:26 Woe to you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
  • 6:27 But I say to you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
  • 6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which spitefully use you.
  • 6:29 And to him that smites you on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that takes away your cloak forbid not to take your coat also.
  • 6:30 Give to every man that asks of you; and of him that takes away your goods ask them not again.
  • 6:31 And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them likewise.
  • 6:32 For if you love them which love you, what thank have you? for sinners also love those that love them.
  • 6:33 And if you do good to them which do good to you, what thank have you?  for sinners also do even the same.
  • 6:34 And if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what thank have you? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
  • 6:35 But love you your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind to the unthankful and to the evil.
  • 6:36 Be you therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
  • 6:37 Judge not, and you shall not be judged: condemn not, and you shall not be condemned: forgive, and you shall be forgiven:
  • 6:38 Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you mete with it shall be measured to you again.
  • 6:39 And he spoke a parable to them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
  • 6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.
  • 6:41 And why behold you the mote that is in your brother’s eye, but perceive not the beam that is in your own eye?
  • 6:42 Either how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in your eye, when you yourself behold not the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of your own eye, and then shall you see clearly to pull out the mote that is in your brother’s eye.
  • 6:43 For a good tree brings not forth corrupt fruit; neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
  • 6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
  • 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
  • 6:46 And why call you me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
  • 6:47 Whoever comes to me, and hears my sayings, and does them, I will show you to whom he is like:
  • 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and dig deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently on that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded on a rock.
  • 6:49 But he that hears, and does not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house on the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

  • 5:1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed on him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,
  • 5:2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
  • 5:3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.
  • 5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said to Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
  • 5:5 And Simon answering said to him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at your word I will let down the net.
  • 5:6 And when they had this done, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net broke.
  • 5:7 And they beckoned to their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.
  • 5:8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
  • 5:9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:
  • 5:10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; from now on you shall catch men.
  • 5:11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.
  • 5:12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and sought him, saying, Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.
  • 5:13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be you clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
  • 5:14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
  • 5:15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
  • 5:16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.
  • 5:17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.
  • 5:18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.
  • 5:19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went on the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the middle before Jesus.
  • 5:20 And when he saw their faith, he said to him, Man, your sins are forgiven you.
  • 5:21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
  • 5:22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said to them, What reason you in your hearts?
  • 5:23 Whether is easier, to say, Your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Rise up and walk?
  • 5:24 But that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, (he said to the sick of the palsy,) I say to you, Arise, and take up your couch, and go into your house.
  • 5:25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that where on he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.
  • 5:26 And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.
  • 5:27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said to him, Follow me.
  • 5:28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.
  • 5:29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.
  • 5:30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
  • 5:31 And Jesus answering said to them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
  • 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
  • 5:33 And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but your eat and drink?
  • 5:34 And he said to them, Can you make the children of the bridal chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
  • 5:35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.
  • 5:36 And he spoke also a parable to them; No man puts a piece of a new garment on an old; if otherwise, then both the new makes a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agrees not with the old.
  • 5:37 And no man puts new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.
  • 5:38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.
  • 5:39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desires new: for he said, The old is better.

  • 3:1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
  • 3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
  • 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
  • 3:4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
  • 3:5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;

  • 3:19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

  • 2:44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.
  • 2:45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.
  • 2:46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the middle of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
  • 2:47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
  • 2:48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said to him, Son, why have you thus dealt with us? behold, your father and I have sought you sorrowing.
  • 2:49 And he said to them, How is it that you sought me? knew you not that I must be about my Father’s business?
  • 2:50 And they understood not the saying which he spoke to them.
  • 2:51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
  • 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

  • 1:1 For as much as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
  • 1:2 Even as they delivered them to us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
  • 1:3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus,
  • 1:4 That you might know the certainty of those things, wherein you have been instructed.
  • 1:5 THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
  • 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
  • 1:7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
  • 1:8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,
  • 1:9 According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
  • 1:10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
  • 1:11 And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
  • 1:12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell on him.
  • 1:13 But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zacharias: for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elisabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.
  • 1:14 And you shall have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
  • 1:15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.
  • 1:16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
  • 1:17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
  • 1:18 And Zacharias said to the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
  • 1:19 And the angel answering said to him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak to you, and to show you these glad tidings.
  • 1:20 And, behold, you shall be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because you believe not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
  • 1:21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marveled that he tarried so long in the temple.
  • 1:22 And when he came out, he could not speak to them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned to them, and remained speechless.
  • 1:23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
  • 1:24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
  • 1:25 Thus has the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.
  • 1:26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
  • 1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
  • 1:28 And the angel came in to her, and said, Hail, you that are highly favored, the Lord is with you: blessed are you among women.
  • 1:29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
  • 1:30 And the angel said to her, Fear not, Mary: for you have found favor with God.
  • 1:31 And, behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS.
  • 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give to him the throne of his father David:
  • 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
  • 1:34 Then said Mary to the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
  • 1:35 And the angel answered and said to her, The Holy Ghost shall come on you, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow you: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God.
  • 1:36 And, behold, your cousin Elisabeth, she has also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
  • 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
  • 1:38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it to me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.
  • 1:39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;
  • 1:40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
  • 1:41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
  • 1:42 And she spoke out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
  • 1:43 And what is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
  • 1:44 For, see, as soon as the voice of your salutation sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
  • 1:45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
  • 1:46 And Mary said, My soul does magnify the Lord,
  • 1:47 And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.
  • 1:48 For he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from now on all generations shall call me blessed.
  • 1:49 For he that is mighty has done to me great things; and holy is his name.
  • 1:50 And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
  • 1:51 He has showed strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
  • 1:52 He has put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
  • 1:53 He has filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he has sent empty away.
  • 1:54 He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
  • 1:55 As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
  • 1:56 And Mary stayed with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
  • 1:57 Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
  • 1:58 And her neighbors and her cousins heard how the Lord had showed great mercy on her; and they rejoiced with her.
  • 1:59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
  • 1:60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
  • 1:61 And they said to her, There is none of your kindred that is called by this name.
  • 1:62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
  • 1:63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marveled all.
  • 1:64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, and praised God.
  • 1:65 And fear came on all that dwelled round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.
  • 1:66 And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.
  • 1:67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
  • 1:68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he has visited and redeemed his people,
  • 1:69 And has raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
  • 1:70 As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
  • 1:71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
  • 1:72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
  • 1:73 The oath which he swore to our father Abraham,
  • 1:74 That he would grant to us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
  • 1:75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
  • 1:76 And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Highest: for you shall go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
  • 1:77 To give knowledge of salvation to his people by the remission of their sins,
  • 1:78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high has visited us,
  • 1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
  • 1:80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing to Israel.

  • 16:1 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.
  • 16:2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came to the sepulcher at the rising of the sun.
  • 16:3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?
  • 16:4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.
  • 16:5 And entering into the sepulcher, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.
  • 16:6 And he said to them, Be not affrighted: You seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
  • 16:7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goes before you into Galilee: there shall you see him, as he said to you.
  • 16:8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulcher; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.
  • 16:9 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.
  • 16:10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
  • 16:11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.
  • 16:12 After that he appeared in another form to two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.
  • 16:13 And they went and told it to the residue: neither believed they them.
  • 16:14 Afterward he appeared to 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.
  • 16:15 And he said to them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
  • 16:16 He that believes and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believes not shall be damned.
  • 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
  • 16:18 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.
  • 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken to them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
  • 16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

  • 15:1 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.
  • 15:2 And Pilate asked him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he answering said to them, You say it.
  • 15:3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.
  • 15:4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answer you nothing? behold how many things they witness against you.
  • 15:5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marveled.
  • 15:6 Now at that feast he released to them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.
  • 15:7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
  • 15:8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done to them.
  • 15:9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will you that I release to you the King of the Jews?
  • 15:10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.
  • 15:11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas to them.
  • 15:12 And Pilate answered and said again to them, What will you then that I shall do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?
  • 15:13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
  • 15:14 Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
  • 15:15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas to them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
  • 15:16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.
  • 15:17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,
  • 15:18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
  • 15:19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit on him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.
  • 15:20 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.
  • 15:21 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.
  • 15:22 And they bring him to the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.
  • 15:23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.
  • 15:24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots on them, what every man should take.
  • 15:25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
  • 15:26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
  • 15:27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
  • 15:28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which said, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
  • 15:29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, you that destroy the temple, and build it in three days,
  • 15:30 Save yourself, and come down from the cross.
  • 15:31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
  • 15:32 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.
  • 15:33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
  • 15:34 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 have you forsaken me?
  • 15:35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calls Elias.
  • 15:36 And one ran and filled a sponge 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.
  • 15:37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
  • 15:38 And the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom.
  • 15:39 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.
  • 15:40 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;
  • 15:41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered to him;) and many other women which came up with him to Jerusalem.
  • 15:42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,
  • 15:43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honorable counselor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly to Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.
  • 15:44 And Pilate marveled if he were already dead: and calling to him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.
  • 15:45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
  • 15:46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulcher which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulcher.
  • 15:47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.

  • 14:1 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.
  • 14:2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.
  • 14:3 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 broke the box, and poured it on his head.
  • 14:4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
  • 14:5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
  • 14:6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble you her? she has worked a good work on me.
  • 14:7 For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you will you may do them good: but me you have not always.
  • 14:8 She has done what she could: she is come beforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
  • 14:9 Truly I say to you, Wherever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she has done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
  • 14:10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, to betray him to them.
  • 14:11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
  • 14:12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said to him, Where will you that we go and prepare that you may eat the passover?
  • 14:13 And he sends forth two of his disciples, and said to them, Go you into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.
  • 14:14 And wherever he shall go in, say you to the manager of the house, The Master said, Where is the guest room, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
  • 14:15 And he will show you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.
  • 14:16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said to them: and they made ready the passover.
  • 14:17 And in the evening he comes with the twelve.
  • 14:18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you which eats with me shall betray me.
  • 14:19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?
  • 14:20 And he answered and said to them, It is one of the twelve, that dips with me in the dish.
  • 14:21 The Son of man indeed goes, 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.
  • 14:22 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
  • 14:23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.
  • 14:24 And he said to them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.
  • 14:25 Truly I say to 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.
  • 14:26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
  • 14:27 And Jesus said to them, All you shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.
  • 14:28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
  • 14:29 But Peter said to him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.
  • 14:30 And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, you shall deny me thrice.
  • 14:31 But he spoke the more vehemently, If I should die with you, I will not deny you in any wise. Likewise also said they all.
  • 14:32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he said to his disciples, Sit you here, while I shall pray.
  • 14:33 And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;
  • 14:34 And said to them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful to death: tarry you here, and watch.
  • 14:35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
  • 14:36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to you; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what you will.
  • 14:37 And he comes, and finds them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, sleep you? could not you watch one hour?
  • 14:38 Watch you and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.
  • 14:39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spoke the same words.
  • 14:40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither knew they what to answer him.
  • 14:41 And he comes the third time, and said to 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.
  • 14:42 Rise up, let us go; see, he that betrays me is at hand.
  • 14:43 And immediately, while he yet spoke, comes 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.
  • 14:44 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.
  • 14:45 And as soon as he was come, he goes straightway to him, and said, Master, master; and kissed him.
  • 14:46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.
  • 14:47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
  • 14:48 And Jesus answered and said to them, Are you come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?
  • 14:49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.
  • 14:50 And they all forsook him, and fled.
  • 14:51 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:
  • 14:52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.
  • 14:53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.
  • 14:54 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.
  • 14:55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.
  • 14:56 For many bore false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.
  • 14:57 And there arose certain, and bore false witness against him, saying,
  • 14:58 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.
  • 14:59 But neither so did their witness agree together.
  • 14:60 And the high priest stood up in the middle, and asked Jesus, saying, Answer you nothing? what is it which these witness against you?
  • 14:61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said to him, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
  • 14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
  • 14:63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and said, What need we any further witnesses?
  • 14:64 You have heard the blasphemy: what think you? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.
  • 14:65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say to him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands.
  • 14:66 And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there comes one of the maids of the high priest:
  • 14:67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked on him, and said, And you also were with Jesus of Nazareth.
  • 14:68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what you say. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.
  • 14:69 And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them.
  • 14:70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely you are one of them: for you are a Galilaean, and your speech agrees thereto.
  • 14:71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom you speak.
  • 14:72 And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said to him, Before the cock crow twice, you shall deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

  • 13:1 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!
  • 13:2 And Jesus answering said to him, See you these great buildings?  there shall not be left one stone on another, that shall not be thrown down.
  • 13:3 And as he sat on the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
