¹ Unto the end. A Psalm Chapter for David. ^(19:2) The heavens shew forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands. ^{2 (19:3)} Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge. ^{3 (19:4)} There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard. ^{4 (19:5)} Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world. ^{5 (19:6)} He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he as a bridegroom coming out of his bridechamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way: ^{6 (19:7)} His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat. ^{7 (19:8)} The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones. ^{8 (19:9)} The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes. ^{9 (19:10)} The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves. ^{10 (19:11)} More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. ^{11 (19:12)} For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward. ^{12 (19:13)} Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord: ^{13 (19:14)} And from those of others spare thy servant. If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: and I shall be cleansed form the greatest sin. ^{14 (19:15)} And the words of my mouth shall be such as may please: and the meditation of my heart always in thy sight. O Lord, my helper and my Redeemer.

¹ And it came to pass afterwards he travelled through the cities and towns, preaching and evangelizing the kingdom of God: and the twelve with him: ² And certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who is called Magdalen, out of whom seven devils were gone forth, ³ And Joanna the wife of Chusa, Herod's steward, and Susanna and many others who ministered unto him of their substance. ⁴ And when a very great multitude was gathered together and hastened out of the cities, unto him, he spoke by a similitude. ⁵ The sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the way side. And it was trodden down: and the fowls of the air devoured it. ⁶ And other some fell upon a rock. And as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. ⁷ And other some fell among thorns. And the thorns growing up with it, choked it. ⁸ And other some fell upon good ground and, being sprung up, yielded fruit a hundredfold. Saying these things, he cried out: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. ⁹ And his disciples asked him what this parable might be. ¹⁰ To whom he said: To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to the rest in parables, that seeing they may not see and hearing may not understand. ¹¹ Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. ¹² And they by the way side are they that hear: then the devil cometh and taketh the word out of their heart, lest believing they should be saved. ¹³ Now they upon the rock are they who when they hear receive the word with joy: and these have no roots: for they believe for a while and in time of temptation they fall away. ¹⁴ And that which fell among thorns are they who have heard and, going their way, are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of this life and yield no fruit. ¹⁵ But that on the good ground are they who in a good and perfect heart, hearing the word, keep it and bring forth fruit in patience. ¹⁶ Now no man lighting a candle covereth it with a vessel or putteth it under a bed: but setteth it upon a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light. ¹⁷ For there is not any thing secret that shall not be made manifest, nor hidden that shall not be known and come abroad. ¹⁸ Take heed therefore how you hear. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given: and whosoever hath not, that also which he thinketh he hath shall be taken away from him. ¹⁹ And his mother and brethren came unto him: and they could not come at him for the crowd. ²⁰ And it was told him: Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee. ²¹ Who answering, said to them: My mother and my brethren are they who hear the word of God and do it. ²² And it came to pass on a certain day that he went into a little ship with his disciples. And he said to them: Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. ²³ And when they were sailing, he slept. And there came down a storm of wind upon the lake: and they were filled and were in danger. ²⁴ And they came and awaked him, saying: Master, we perish. But he arising, rebuked the wind and the rage of the water. And it ceased: and there was a calm. ²⁵ And he said to them: Where is your faith? Who being afraid, wondered, saying one to another: Who is this (think you), that he commandeth both the winds and the sea: and they obey him? ²⁶ And they sailed to the country of the Gerasens, which is over against Galilee. ²⁷ And when he was come forth to the land, there met him a certain man who had a devil now a very long time. And he wore no clothes: neither did he abide in a house, but in the sepulchres. ²⁸ And when he saw Jesus, he fell down before him. And crying out with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me. ²⁹ For he commanded the unclean spirit to go out of the man. For many times it seized him: and he was bound with chains and kept in fetters: and breaking the bonds, he was driven by the devil into the deserts. ³⁰ And Jesus asked him, saying: What is thy name? But he said: Legion. Because many devils were entered into him. ³¹ And they besought him that he would not command them to go into the abyss. ³² And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them. ³³ The devils therefore went out of the man and entered into the swine. And the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake and were stifled. ³⁴ Which when they that fed them saw done, they fled away and told it in the city and in the villages. ³⁵ And they went out to see what was done. And they came to Jesus and found the man out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at his feet, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid. ³⁶ And they also that had seen told them how he had been healed from the legion. ³⁷ And all the multitude of the country of the Gerasens besought him to depart from them: for they were taken with great fear. And he, going up into the ship, returned back again. ³⁸ Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying: ³⁹ Return to thy house and tell how great things God hath done to thee. And he went through the whole city, publishing how great things Jesus had done to him. ⁴⁰ And it came to pass that when Jesus was returned, the multitude received him: for they were all waiting for him. ⁴¹ And behold there came a man whose name was Jairus: and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus, beseeching him that he would come into his house: ⁴² For he had an only daughter, almost twelve years old, and she was dying. And it happened as he went that he was thronged by the multitudes. ⁴³ And there was a certain woman having an issue of blood twelve years, who had bestowed all her substance on physicians and could not be healed by any. ⁴⁴ She came behind him and touched the hem of his garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stopped. ⁴⁵ And Jesus said: Who is it that touched me? And all denying, Peter and they that were with him said: Master, the multitudes throng and press thee; and dost thou say, who touched me? ⁴⁶ And Jesus said: Somebody hath touched me; for I know that virtue is gone out from me. ⁴⁷ And the woman seeing that she was not hid, came trembling and fell down before his feet and declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was immediately healed. ⁴⁸ But he said to her: Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole. Go thy way in peace. ⁴⁹ As he was yet speaking, there cometh one to the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him: Thy daughter is dead: trouble him not. ⁵⁰ And Jesus hearing this word, answered the father of the maid: Fear not. Believe only: and she shall be safe. ⁵¹ And when he was come to the house, he suffered not any man to go in with him, but Peter and James and John, and the father and mother of the maiden. ⁵² And all wept and mourned for her. But he said: Weep not. The maid is not dead, but sleepeth. ⁵³ And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. ⁵⁴ But he taking her by the hand, cried out, saying: Maid, arise. ⁵⁵ And her spirit returned: and she arose immediately. And he bid them give her to eat. ⁵⁶ And her parents were astonished, whom he charged to tell no man what was done.

¹⁷ And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name they shall cast out devils. They shall speak with new tongues. ¹⁸ They shall take up serpents: and if they shall drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them. They shall lay their hand upon the sick: and they shall recover.

³ Being mindful of the work of your faith and labour and charity: and of the enduring of the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ before God and our Father. ⁴ Knowing, brethren, beloved of God, your election: ⁵ For our gospel hath not been unto you in word only, but in power also: and in the Holy Ghost and in much fulness, as you know what manner of men we have been among you for your sakes. ⁶ And you became followers of us and of the Lord: receiving the word in much tribulation, with joy of the Holy Ghost: ⁷ So that you were made a pattern to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia. ⁸ For from you was spread abroad the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and in Achaia but also in every place: your faith which is towards God, is gone forth, so that we need not to speak any thing. ⁹ For they themselves relate of us, what manner of entering in we had unto you: and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God.

¹ I saw a new heaven and a new earth. For the first heaven and the first earth was gone: and the sea is now no more. ² And I, John, saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. ³ And I heard a great voice from the throne, saying: Behold the tabernacle of God with men: and he will dwell with them. And they shall be his people: and God himself with them shall be their God. ⁴ And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes: and death shall be no more. Nor mourning, nor crying, nor sorrow shall be any more, for the former things are passed away. ⁵ And he that sat on the throne, said: Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me: Write. For these words are most faithful and true. ⁶ And he said to me: It is done. I am Alpha and Omega: the Beginning and the End. To him that thirsteth, I will give of the fountain of the water of life, freely. ⁷ He that shall overcome shall possess these things. And I will be his God: and he shall be my son. ⁸ But the fearful and unbelieving and the abominable and murderers and whoremongers and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, they shall have their portion in the pool burning with fire and brimstone, which is the second death. ⁹ And there came one of the seven angels, who had the vials full of the seven last plagues, and spoke with me, saying: Come and I will shew thee the bride, the wife of the Lamb. ¹⁰ And he took me up in spirit to a great and high mountain: and he shewed me the holy city Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, ¹¹ Having the glory of God, and the light thereof was like to a precious stone, as to the jasper stone even as crystal. ¹² And it had a wall great and high, having twelve gates, and in the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. ¹³ On the east, three gates: and on the north, three gates: and on the south, three gates: and on the west, three gates. ¹⁴ And the wall of the city had twelve foundations: And in them, the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb, ¹⁵ And he that spoke with me had a measure of a reed of gold, to measure the city and the gates thereof and the wall. ¹⁶ And the city lieth in a four-square: and the length thereof is as great as the breadth. And he measured the city with the golden reed for twelve thousand furlongs: and the length and the height and the breadth thereof are equal. ¹⁷ And he measured the wall thereof an hundred forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, which is of an angel. ¹⁸ And the building of the wall thereof was of jasper stone: but the city itself pure gold like to clear glass. ¹⁹ And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper: the second, sapphire: the third; a chalcedony: the fourth, an emerald: ²⁰ The fifth, sardonyx: the sixth, sardius: the seventh, chrysolite: the eighth, beryl: the ninth, a topaz: the tenth, a chrysoprasus: the eleventh, a jacinth: the twelfth, an amethyst. ²¹ And the twelve gates are twelve pearls, one to each: and every several gate was of one several pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, as it were, transparent glass. ²² And I saw no temple therein. For the Lord God Almighty is the temple thereof, and the Lamb. ²³ And the city hath no need of the sun, nor of the moon, to shine in it. For the glory of God hath enlightened it: and the Lamb is the lamp thereof. ²⁴ And the nations shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honour into it. ²⁵ And the gates thereof shall not be shut by day: for there shall be no night there. ²⁶ And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it. ²⁷ There shall not enter into it any thing defiled or that worketh abomination or maketh a lie: but they that are written in the book of life of the Lamb.

¹ And he shewed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. ² In the midst of the street thereof, and on both sides of the river, was the tree of life, bearing twelve fruits, yielding its fruits every month: the leaves of the tree for the healing of the nations. ³ And there shall be no curse any more: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it. And his servants shall serve him. ⁴ And they shall see his face: and his name shall be on their foreheads. ⁵ And night shall be no more. And they shall not need the light of the lamp, nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God shall enlighten then. And they shall reign for ever and ever. ⁶ And he said to me: These words are most faithful and true. And the Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to shew his servant the things which must be done shortly. ⁷ And: Behold I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the words of the prophecy of this book. ⁸ And I, John, who have heard and seen these things. And, after I had heard and seen, I fell down to adore before the feet of the angel who shewed me the things. ⁹ And he said to me: See thou do it not. For I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren the prophets and of them that keep the words of the prophecy of this book. Adore God. ¹⁰ And he saith to me: Seal not the words of the prophecy of this book. For the time is at hand. ¹¹ He that hurteth, let him hurt still: and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is just, let him be justified still: and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still. ¹² Behold, I come quickly: and my reward is with me, to render to every, man according to his works. ¹³ I am Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. ¹⁴ Blessed are they that wash their robes in the blood of the Lamb: that they may have a right to the tree of life and may enter in by the gates into the city. ¹⁵ Without are dogs and sorcerers and unchaste and murderers and servers of idols and every one that loveth and maketh a lie. ¹⁶ I, Jesus, have sent my angel, to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and stock of David, the bright and morning star. ¹⁷ And the spirit and the bride say: Come. And he that heareth, let him say: Come. And he that thirsteth, let him come. And he that will, let him take the water of life, freely. ¹⁸ For I testify to every one that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book: If any man shall add to these things, God shall add unto him the plagues written in this book. ¹⁹ And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from these things that are written in this book. ²⁰ He that giveth testimony of these things, saith: Surely, I come quickly: Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. ²¹ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

¹¹ The Lord will give strength to his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.

¹⁷ For I will close up thy scar, and will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord. Because they have called thee, O Sion, an outcast: This is she that hath none to seek after her.

¹ And having called his twelve disciples together, he gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of diseases, and all manner of infirmities.

¹² Otherwise believe for the very works' sake. Amen, amen, I say to you, he that believeth in me, the works that I do, he also shall do: and greater than these shall he do.

¹⁷ And he is before all: and by him all things consist.

¹⁰ But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will himself perfect you and confirm you and establish you.

²⁰ He sent his word, and healed them: and delivered them from their destructions.

²⁵ Itself remaineth alone. But if it die it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it and he that hateth his life in this world keepeth it unto life eternal.

¹ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercy of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing unto God, your reasonable service.

¹³ I can do all things in him who strengtheneth me.

⁹ For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead corporeally. ¹⁰ And you are filled in him, who is the head of all principality and power.

¹³ But when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will teach you all truth. For he shall not speak of himself: but what things soever he shall hear, he shall speak. And the things that are to come, he shall shew you.

¹⁷ Every best gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change nor shadow of alteration.

¹⁰ The thief cometh not, but for to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they may have life and may have it more abundantly.

¹ James, the servant of God and of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. ² My brethren, count it all joy, when you shall fall into divers temptations: ³ Knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience ⁴ And patience hath a perfect work: that you may be perfect and entire, failing in nothing. ⁵ But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God who giveth to all men abundantly and upbraideth not. And it shall be given him. ⁶ But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, which is moved and carried about by the wind. ⁷ Therefore let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. ⁸ A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways. ⁹ But let the brother of low condition glory in his exaltation: ¹⁰ And the rich, in his being low: because as the flower of the grass shall he pass away. ¹¹ For the sun rose with a burning heat and parched the grass: and the flower thereof fell off, and the beauty of the shape thereof perished. So also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. ¹² Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for, when he hath been proved, he shall receive the crown of life which God hath promised to them that love him. ¹³ Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted by God. For God is not a tempter of evils: and he tempteth no man. ¹⁴ But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured. ¹⁵ Then, when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death. ¹⁶ Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren. ¹⁷ Every best gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change nor shadow of alteration. ¹⁸ For of his own will hath he begotten us by the word of truth, that we might be some beginning of his creature. ¹⁹ You know, my dearest brethren. And let every man be swift to hear, but slow to speak and slow to anger. ²⁰ For the anger of man worketh not the justice of God. ²¹ Wherefore, casting away all uncleanness and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls. ²² But be ye doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. ²³ For if a man be a hearer of the word and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass. ²⁴ For he beheld himself and went his way and presently forgot what manner of man he was. ²⁵ But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work: this man shall be blessed in his deed. ²⁶ And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue but deceiving his own heart, this man's religion is vain. ²⁷ Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation and to keep one's self unspotted from this world.
