Mark 14 Cross References - ABU

¹ TWO days after, was the passover, and the feast of unleavened bread; and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death. ² For they said: Not at the feast, lest there shall be a tumult of the people. ³ And he being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of pure spikenard, very precious; and she broke the box, and poured it on his head. ⁴ And there were some that were much displeased among themselves, and said: Why was this waste of the ointment made? ⁵ For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denáries, and given to the poor. And they murmured at her. ⁶ And Jesus said: Let her alone; why do ye trouble her? She wrought a good work on me. ⁷ For the poor ye have always with you, and when ye will ye can do good to them; but me ye have not always. ⁸ She did what she could; she beforehand anointed my body for the preparation for burial. ⁹ Verily I say to you, wherever the good news shall be preached in the whole world, this also that she did shall be told for a memorial of her. ¹⁰ And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, to deliver him up to them. ¹¹ And they, when they heard it, were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently deliver him up. ¹² And on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples say to him: Where wilt thou that we go and prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover? ¹³ And he sends forth two of his disciples, and says to them: Go into the city, and there will meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him. ¹⁴ And where he shall go in, say to the master of the house: The Teacher says, Where is the guest-chamber, in which I may eat the passover with my disciples? ¹⁵ And he will show you a large upper room furnished, ready; there prepare for us. ¹⁶ And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he said to them; and they made ready the passover. ¹⁷ And at evening he comes with the twelve. ¹⁸ And as they were reclining at table, and eating, Jesus said: Verily I say to you, that one of you will betray me, one that eats with me! ¹⁹ And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one: Is it I? And another said: Is it I? ²⁰ And he answering said to them: It is one of the twelve, one that dips with me into the dish. ²¹ The Son of man indeed goes, as it is written of him; but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for him if that man had not been born. ²² And as they were eating, Jesus, taking a loaf, blessed, and broke, and gave it to them, and said: Take it; this is my body. ²³ And taking the cup, he gave thanks, and gave it to them; and they all drank of it. ²⁴ And he said to them: This is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many. ²⁵ Verily I say to you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God. ²⁶ And having sung, they went out into the mount of the Olives. ²⁷ And Jesus says to them: All ye will be offended; because it is written: I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. ²⁸ But after I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee. ²⁹ And Peter said to him: Though all shall be offended, yet will not I. ³⁰ And Jesus says to him: Verily I say to thee, that thou this day, in this night, before a cock crows twice, wilt thrice deny me. ³¹ But he said the more vehemently: If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. Likewise also said they all. ³² And they come to a place which was named Gethsemane. And he says to his disciples: Sit ye here, while I shall pray. ³³ And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be troubled. ³⁴ And he says to them: My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, unto death; tarry here, and watch. ³⁵ And going forward a little, he 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 to thee; take away this cup from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt. ³⁷ And he comes, and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter: Simon, sleepest thou? Couldest thou not watch one hour? ³⁸ Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ³⁹ And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. ⁴⁰ And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what to answer him. ⁴¹ And he comes the third time, and says to them: Do ye sleep the remaining time, 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, let us go; behold, he that betrays me is at hand. ⁴³ And immediately, while he was yet speaking, comes Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. ⁴⁴ And his betrayer had given them a signal, saying: Whom I shall kiss, that is he; lay hold of him, and lead him away securely. ⁴⁵ And coming, he goes straightway to him, and says: Master, Master; and kissed him. ⁴⁶ And they laid their hands on him, and held him fast. ⁴⁷ And one of those standing by drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high priest, and took off his ear. ⁴⁸ And Jesus answering said to them: Came ye out, as against a robber, with swords and staves to take me? ⁴⁹ I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye did not lay hold of me; but that the Scriptures might be fulfilled! ⁵⁰ And 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 lay hold of him. ⁵² And leaving behind the linen cloth, he fled from them naked. ⁵³ And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes. ⁵⁴ And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the high priest, and was sitting with the officers, and warming himself at the fire. ⁵⁵ And the chief priests and all the council sought for testimony against Jesus, in order to put him to death; and they found none. ⁵⁶ For many bore false witness against him; but their testimonies agreed not together. ⁵⁷ And certain ones rose up, and bore false witness against him, saying: ⁵⁸ We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands. ⁵⁹ And not even so did their testimony agree. ⁶⁰ And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying: Answerest thou nothing? What do these witness against thee? ⁶¹ But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said to 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 with the clouds of heaven. ⁶³ And the high priest, rending his clothes, says: What further need have we of witnesses? ⁶⁴ Ye 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 buffet him, and say to him: Prophesy. And the officers, with blows, took him in charge. ⁶⁶ And Peter being below in the court, there comes one of the maid-servants of the high priest; ⁶⁷ and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said: Thou also wast with Jesus the Nazarene. ⁶⁸ But he denied, saying: I do not know, nor do I understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the fore-court; and a cock crowed. ⁶⁹ And the maid-servant, seeing him, began again to say to those standing by: This is one of them. ⁷⁰ And he again denied it. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilaean. ⁷¹ But he began to invoke curses, and to swear: I do not know this man of whom ye speak. ⁷² And a cock crowed a second time. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus said to him: Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And as he thought thereon, he wept.

² Therefore when thou doest alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say to you, they have in full their reward.

¹⁴ And the Pharisees went out, and took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.

² Ye know that after two days comes the passover, and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified. ³ Then assembled together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, ⁴ and consulted together that they might take Jesus by craft, and put him to death. ⁵ But they said: Not at the feast, that there may not be a tumult among the people.

¹ Now the feast of unleavened bread was drawing near, which is called the Passover; ² and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

⁴⁷ Therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said: What do we, seeing that this man works many signs?

⁵³ Therefore from that day forth they took counsel together to put him to death. ⁵⁴ Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews; but departed thence to the country near to the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples. ⁵⁵ And the passover of the Jews was at hand; and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country, before the passover, that they might purify themselves. ⁵⁶ They sought therefore for Jesus, and said among themselves, as they stood in the temple: What think ye, that he will not come to the feast? ⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any one knew where he was, he should make it known, that they might seize him.

¹ AND before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that his hour has come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, loved them to the end.

²⁵ who by the mouth of thy servant David said: Why did the heathen rage, And the peoples imagine vain things? ²⁶ The kings of the earth stood near, And the rulers assembled together, Against the Lord, and against his Christ. ²⁷ For in truth there assembled in this city, against thy holy servant Jesus, whom thou didst anoint, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the peoples of Israel, ²⁸ to do whatever thy hand and thy counsel before determined to be done.

⁵ But they said: Not at the feast, that there may not be a tumult among the people.

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

³² If we say, from heaven; he will say, why then did ye not believe him? But shall we say from men? They feared the people; for all held that John was verily a prophet.

⁶ But if we say, From men, all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.

⁴⁰ Some of the multitude therefore, hearing the words, said: Of a truth this is the Prophet.

¹⁹ The Pharisees therefore said among themselves: Perceive ye that ye avail nothing? Behold, the world is gone after him.

¹⁷ And leaving them, he went forth out of the city into Bethany, and lodged there.

⁶ And Jesus being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, ⁷ there came to him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head as he reclined at table. ⁸ And his disciples seeing it were displeased, saying: To what purpose is this waste? ⁹ For this might have been sold for much, and given to the poor. ¹⁰ And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why trouble ye the woman? For she wrought a good work upon me. ¹¹ For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always. ¹² For she, in pouring this ointment on my body, did it to prepare me for burial. ¹³ Verily I say to you, wherever this good news shall be preached in the whole world, this also that she did shall be told, for a memorial of her.

³⁷ And, behold, a woman who was a sinner in the city, learning that he is reclining at table in the house of the Pharisee, brought an alabaster box of ointment; ³⁸ and standing behind at his feet weeping, began to wet his feet with tears, and wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. ³⁹ And seeing it, the Pharisee who had bidden him spoke within himself, saying: This man, if he were a prophet, would know who and what sort of woman this is that touches him; for she is a sinner.

² It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

¹ THEREFORE Jesus, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom Jesus raised from the dead. ² They therefore made him a supper there, and Martha served; and Lazarus was one of those who reclined at table with him. ³ Then Mary took a pound of ointment of pure spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment. ⁴ Then says one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who was about to betray him: ⁵ Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denáries, and given to the poor? ⁶ This he said, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bore what was put therein. ⁷ Then said Jesus: Let her alone; she has kept it to the day of my preparation for burial. ⁸ For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.

⁸ And his disciples seeing it were displeased, saying: To what purpose is this waste? ⁹ For this might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

⁴ Then says one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who was about to betray him: ⁵ Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denáries, and given to the poor?

²⁸ But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him a hundred denáries; and laying hold of him he took him by the throat, saying: Pay me that thou owest.

¹¹ And on receiving it, they murmured against the householder,

² And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying: This man receives sinners, and eats with them.

⁷ Philip answered him: Two hundred denáries worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that each one may take a little.

⁴³ Jesus answered and said to them: Murmur not among yourselves.

⁵ Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denáries, and given to the poor? ⁶ This he said, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bore what was put therein.

²⁹ For some thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus said to him: Buy what we need for the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

¹⁰ Nor murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.

²⁸ Let him that stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands that which is good, that he may have to impart to him that has need.

¹⁴ Do all without murmurings and disputings;

¹⁶ These are murmurers, complaining of their lot, walking according to their lusts; and their mouth speaks swelling words; having respect to persons, for the sake of profit.

¹⁰ And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why trouble ye the woman? For she wrought a good work upon me.

¹¹ For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.

Can the faith save him? ¹⁵ But if a brother or a sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, ¹⁶ and one of you say to them: Depart in peace, be warmed, and be filled, but ye give them not the things needful for the body, what does it profit?

¹⁶ In this we know love, that he laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. ¹⁷ But whoever has the world's sustenance, and sees his brother having need, and shuts up his pity from him, how abides the love of God in him? ¹⁸ Little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. ¹⁹ And in this we shall know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

⁴² And evening having now come, since it was the preparation (which is the day before the sabbath),

⁵³ And taking it down, he wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in the rock, where no one was yet laid.

⁷ Then said Jesus: Let her alone; she has kept it to the day of my preparation for burial.

³² The soldiers came, therefore, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him. ³³ But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they broke not his legs. ³⁴ But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith there came out blood and water. ³⁵ And he that has seen has borne witness, and his witness is true, and he knows that he says what is true, that ye also might believe. ³⁶ For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled: A bone of him shall not be broken. ³⁷ And again another scripture says: They shall look on him whom they pierced. ³⁸ And after this, Joseph from Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took away the body of Jesus. ³⁹ And there came also Nicodemus, who at the first came to Jesus by night, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight. ⁴⁰ They took therefore the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial. ⁴¹ And in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein no one was yet laid. ⁴² There they laid Jesus therefore, on account of the preparation of the Jews, because the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

¹ AND we made known to you, brethren, the grace of God which has been bestowed on the churches of Macedonia; ² that in much trial of affliction was the abundance of their joy, and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their liberality. ³ For according to their power, I bear witness, and beyond their power, they were willing of themselves;

¹² For if there be first the willing mind, it is accepted according to what a man has, not according to what he has not.

¹⁴ And this good news of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world, for a testimony to all nations; and then shall come the end.

¹⁵ And he said to them: Go into all the world, and preach the good news to every creature.

⁴ Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

¹⁴ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests, ¹⁵ and said: What will ye give me, and I will deliver him to you? And they weighed out to him thirty pieces of silver. ¹⁶ And from that time he sought opportunity to deliver him up.

¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. And they come into the house.

³ And Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. ⁴ And he went away, and consulted with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him up to them. ⁵ And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. ⁶ And he promised, and sought opportunity to deliver him up to them in the absence of the multitude.

⁷⁰ Jesus answered them: Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil? ⁷¹ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, son of Simon; for he it was that would betray him, being one of the twelve.

² And supper being served, the Devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

³⁰ He then, having received the morsel, went immediately out; and it was night.

¹⁵ and said: What will ye give me, and I will deliver him to you? And they weighed out to him thirty pieces of silver.

¹⁰ For the love of money is a root of all evils; which some coveting after wandered away from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

¹⁴ having eyes full of the adulteress, and that cease not from sin; alluring unstable souls; having a heart exercised in covetousness; children of a curse; ¹⁵ forsaking the right way, they went astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness,

¹¹ Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, and rushed on in the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.

¹⁵ And Jesus answering said to him: Suffer it now; for thus it becomes us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

¹⁷ And on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? ¹⁸ And he said: Go into the city to such a man, and say to him: The Teacher says, my time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. ¹⁹ And the disciples did as Jesus directed them, and made ready the passover.

⁷ And the day of unleavened bread came, when the passover must be killed. ⁸ And he sent away Peter and John, saying: Go, and prepare us the passover, that we may eat it. ⁹ And they said to him: Where wilt thou that we prepare? ¹⁰ And he said to them: Behold, when ye have entered into the city, there will meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he enters in. ¹¹ And ye shall say to the master of the house: The Teacher says to thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples? ¹² And he will show you a large upper room furnished; there make ready. ¹³ And they went away, and found as he had said to them. And they made ready the passover.

⁷ Cleanse out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened. For our passover, Christ, was sacrificed for us; ⁸ therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

⁴ But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his son, born of a woman, born under law,

⁹ For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me, and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

² and says to them: Go into the village over against you; and immediately, on entering into it, ye will find a colt tied, whereon no man has sat; loose and bring him. ³ And if any one say to you: Why do ye this? say: The Lord has need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.

³⁰ saying: Go into the opposite village, in which as ye are entering ye will find a colt tied, whereon no man ever sat; loose and bring him. ³¹ And if any one ask you, why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say to him: Because the Lord has need of him. ³² And they that were sent forth departed, and found even as he said to them. ³³ And as they were loosing the colt, its owners said to them: Why loose ye the colt?

⁵ His mother says to the servants: Whatever he says to you, do it.

¹⁴ Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you.

¹³ And there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight; but all things are naked and opened to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

⁹ and being perfected became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey him;

¹⁷ And as he was going forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeling to him, and asked him: Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

³ And if any one say to you: Why do ye this? say: The Lord has need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.

²⁸ And having said this, she went away, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying: The Teacher is come, and calls for thee.

¹³ Ye call me the Teacher, and the Master; and ye say well, for so I am.

²⁰ Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any one hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and I will sup with him and he with me.

²⁴ But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men, ²⁵ and had no need that any one should testify of man; for he himself knew what was in man.

¹⁷ He says to him the third time: Simon, son of Jonah, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said to him: Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus says to him: Feed my sheep.

¹³ And when they came in, they went up into the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

⁸ Now there were many lights in the upper room, where we were assembled.

¹⁹ Nevertheless, God's firm foundation stands, having this seal: The Lord knew those who are his; and, Let every one that names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.

¹³ And they went away, and found as he had said to them. And they made ready the passover.

³⁵ And he said to them: When I sent you without purse, and bag, and sandals, lacked ye anything? And they said: Nothing.

⁴ But these things I have spoken to you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you. And these things I told you not from the beginning, because I was with you.

²⁰ And when evening was come, he reclined at table with the twelve. ²¹ And as they were eating, he said: Verily I say to you, that one of you will betray me. ²² And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and began to say to him, each one: Lord, is it I? ²³ And he answering said: He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same will betray me. ²⁴ The Son of man goes indeed, as it is written of him; but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for him, if that man had not been born.

¹⁴ And when the hour came, he reclined at table, and the apostles with him.

²¹ But, behold, the hand of him that betrays me is with me on the table. ²² For the Son of man indeed goes, as it was determined; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed! ²³ And they began to inquire among themselves, who then it might be that should do this thing?

²¹ Having said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified and said: Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will betray me. ²² The disciples therefore looked one on another, doubting of whom he spoke. ²³ And there was reclining in Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. ²⁴ To him therefore Simon Peter beckons, and says to him: Say who it is of whom he speaks. ²⁵ And he, leaning back on Jesus' breast, says to him: Lord, who is it? ²⁶ Jesus answers: He it is, to whom I shall give the morsel, when I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, he gives it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon.

¹⁸ For verily I say to you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall not pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

⁵ And when ye pray, ye shall not be as the hypocrites; for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Verily I say to you, they have in full their reward.

¹⁶ And when ye fast, be not as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance; for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear to men to fast. Verily I say to you, they have in full their reward.

²¹ And as they were eating, he said: Verily I say to you, that one of you will betray me.

²⁸ Verily I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and the blasphemies wherewith they shall blaspheme.

¹¹ And whatever place shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony to them.

¹² And sighing deeply in his spirit, he says: Why does this generation seek a sign? Verily I say to you, there shall no sign be given to this generation.

¹ AND he said to them: Verily I say to you, that there are some of those standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God already come with power.

⁴¹ For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in that name, that ye are Christ's, verily I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

¹⁵ Verily I say to you, whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall not enter therein.

²⁹ And Jesus answering said: Verily I say to you, there is no one who forsook house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for the sake of me and of the glad tidings,

⁹ Verily I say to you, wherever the good news shall be preached in the whole world, this also that she did shall be told for a memorial of her.

²⁵ Verily I say to you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

²⁴ And he said: Verily I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own country.

⁵¹ from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the temple. Verily I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.

⁵¹ And he says to him: Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth ye shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

³ Jesus answered and said to him: Verily, verily, I say to thee, except a man be born again, he can not see the kingdom of God.

⁵ Jesus answered: Verily, verily, I say to thee, except a man be born of water and the Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of God.

¹¹ Verily, verily, I say to thee, we speak that which we know, and testify that which we have seen; and ye receive not our testimony.

¹⁹ Jesus therefore, answered and said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do; for what things soever he does, these also does the Son in like manner.

²⁴ Verily, verily, I say to you, he that hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has everlasting life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. ²⁵ Verily, verily, I say to you, an hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear shall live.

²⁶ Jesus answered them and said: Verily, verily, I say to you, ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the loaves and were filled.

³² Jesus therefore said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you, Moses has not given you the bread from heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven.

⁴⁷ Verily, verily, I say to you, he that believes on me has everlasting life.

⁷⁰ Jesus answered them: Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?

²¹ Having said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified and said: Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will betray me.

³⁸ Jesus answers: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

¹⁸ Verily, verily, I say to thee, when thou wast young, thou didst gird thyself, and walk whither thou wouldst; but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and lead thee whither thou wouldst not.

²² And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and began to say to him, each one: Lord, is it I?

²² The disciples therefore looked one on another, doubting of whom he spoke.

²³ And he answering said: He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same will betray me.

⁴⁷ And while he was yet speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.

⁴³ And immediately, while he was yet speaking, comes Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

⁴⁷ While he was yet speaking, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁷¹ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, son of Simon; for he it was that would betray him, being one of the twelve.

²⁶ Jesus answers: He it is, to whom I shall give the morsel, when I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, he gives it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon.

⁶ But whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to offend, it were better for him that an upper millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were plunged in the depth of the sea. ⁷ Woe to the world, for causes of offense! For it must needs be that causes of offense come; but woe to that man, through whom the cause of offense comes!

²⁴ The Son of man goes indeed, as it is written of him; but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for him, if that man had not been born. ²⁵ And Judas, his betrayer, answering said: Rabbi, is it I? He says to him: Thou saidst it.

⁵⁴ How then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

⁵⁶ But all this has been done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all forsook him, and fled.

³ Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repenting brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, ⁴ saying: I sinned in betraying innocent blood. And they said: What is it to us? Look thou to it. ⁵ And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed; and he went away and hanged himself.

⁴⁹ I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye did not lay hold of me; but that the Scriptures might be fulfilled!

²² For the Son of man indeed goes, as it was determined; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!

²⁶ Was it not necessary, that the Christ should suffer these things, and enter into his glory? ²⁷ And beginning from Moses, and all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

⁴⁴ And he said to them: These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and psalms, concerning me.

²⁸ After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now finished, that the scripture might be accomplished, says: I thirst.

³⁶ For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled: A bone of him shall not be broken. ³⁷ And again another scripture says: They shall look on him whom they pierced.

¹⁶ Men, brethren, it was necessary that the scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus. ¹⁷ Because he was numbered with us, and obtained the office of this ministry.— ¹⁸ Now this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out. ¹⁹ And it became known to all who dwell at Jerusalem; so that that field was called, in their own tongue, Aceldama, that is, Field of blood.— ²⁰ For it is written in the book of Psalms: Let his habitation be made desolate, And let no one dwell therein. And: Let another take his office.

²⁵ that he may take part in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell away, that he might go to his own place.

²³ this man, delivered up according to the established counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye slew, crucifying him by the hand of lawless ones;

²⁷ For in truth there assembled in this city, against thy holy servant Jesus, whom thou didst anoint, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the peoples of Israel,

²⁷ For they who dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, fulfilled them in condemning him. ²⁸ And though they found no cause of death, they demanded of Pilate that he should be slain. ²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all the things written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.

¹⁹ And he commanded that the multitudes should lie down on the grass, and took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven he blessed, and broke, and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.

²⁶ And as they were eating, Jesus took the loaf, and blessed, and broke, and gave to the disciples, and said: Take, eat; this is my body. ²⁷ And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink all ye of it. ²⁸ For this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many, for remission of sins. ²⁹ And I say to you, that I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you, in the kingdom of my Father.

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

²⁴ And he said to them: This is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many.

¹⁸ For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. ¹⁹ And taking a loaf, he gave thanks, and broke it, and gave to them, saying: This is my body which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me. ²⁰ And the cup in like manner after supper, saying: This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is shed for you.

³⁰ And it came to pass, that as he was reclining at table with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and breaking, gave to them.

²³ (but there came other boats from Tiberias near to the place where they ate bread, when the Lord had given thanks);

⁴⁸ I am the bread of life. ⁴⁹ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. ⁵⁰ This is the bread that comes down out of heaven, that one may eat thereof, and not die. ⁵¹ I am the living bread that came down out of heaven. If any one eat of this bread, he shall live forever; yea, and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. ⁵² The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat? ⁵³ Jesus therefore said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you, except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. ⁵⁴ He that eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, has eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁵⁵ For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. ⁵⁶ He that eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, abides in me, and I in him. ⁵⁷ As the living Father has sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he that eats me, he also shall live because of me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread that came down out of heaven. Not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead; he that eats of this bread shall live forever.

⁴ and all drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank of the spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

¹⁶ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a partaking of the blood of Christ? The loaf which we break, is it not a partaking of the body of Christ? ¹⁷ Because we, the many, are one loaf, one body; for we all share in that one loaf.

²³ For I received from the Lord, what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was betrayed, took a loaf; ²⁴ and having given thanks, he broke it, and said: This is my body, which is for you; this do in remembrance of me. ²⁵ In like manner also the cup, after they had supped, saying: This cup is the new covenant in my blood; this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. ²⁶ For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye show the Lord's death till he come. ²⁷ So that whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. ²⁸ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. ²⁹ For he that eats and drinks, eats and drinks condemnation to himself, if he discern not the body.

²⁵ which is Hagar (for the word Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia), and answers to the Jerusalem that now is, for she is in bondage with her children.

²⁷ And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink all ye of it.

²² And as they were eating, Jesus, taking a loaf, blessed, and broke, and gave it to them, and said: Take it; this is my body.

¹⁷ And having received a cup, he gave thanks and said: Take this, and divide it among yourselves.

⁶ He that regards the day, regards it to the Lord; and he that eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he that eats not, to the Lord he eats not, and gives thanks to God.

¹⁶ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a partaking of the blood of Christ? The loaf which we break, is it not a partaking of the body of Christ?

⁴⁵ For even the Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

⁵³ Jesus therefore said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you, except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

²⁵ In like manner also the cup, after they had supped, saying: This cup is the new covenant in my blood; this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

¹⁵ And for this cause he is mediator of a new covenant, in order that, death having taken place, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, they who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. ¹⁶ For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be brought in the death of the testator. ¹⁷ For a testament is of force after men are dead; since it is of no strength at all while the testator lives. ¹⁸ Wherefore, neither has the first been dedicated without blood. ¹⁹ For, when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and of the goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, saying: ²⁰ This is the blood of the covenant, which God enjoined in respect to you. ²¹ And moreover, the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the service, he in like manner sprinkled with blood. ²² And nearly all things are cleansed according to the law with blood; and without shedding of blood there is no remission. ²³ It was therefore necessary, that the outlines of things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves, with better sacrifices than these.

²⁰ Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep in virtue of the blood of an eternal covenant, ²¹ make you perfect in every good work to do his will, doing in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

⁸ And when he took the book, the four animals, and the twenty-four elders, fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp, and golden cups full of odors, which are the prayers of saints. ⁹ And they sing a new song, saying: Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open its seals; because thou wast slain, and didst redeem to God by thy blood out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation; ¹⁰ and didst make them unto our God a kingdom and priests, and they will reign on the earth.

⁹ After these things I saw, and behold a great multitude, which no one could number, out of every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palms in their hands. ¹⁰ And they cry with a loud voice, saying: Salvation to our God, who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb. ¹¹ And all the angels were standing round the throne and the elders and the four animals, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshiped God, ¹² saying: Amen; the blessing, and the glory, and the wisdom, and the thanksgiving, and the honor, and the power, and the might, be to our God forever and ever. Amen. ¹³ And one of the elders answered, saying to me: These who are clothed in the white robes, who are they, and whence came they? ¹⁴ And I said to him: Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me: These are they who come out of the great affliction, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. ¹⁵ Therefore are they before the throne of God, and they serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them. ¹⁶ They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun fall upon them, nor any heat; ¹⁷ because the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and will lead them to the fountains of the waters of life; and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.

²⁹ And I say to you, that I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you, in the kingdom of my Father.

¹⁶ For I say to you, I shall eat of it no more, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. ¹⁷ And having received a cup, he gave thanks and said: Take this, and divide it among yourselves. ¹⁸ For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

²⁹ and I appoint to you a kingdom, as my Father appointed to me, ³⁰ that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

¹ AND when they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the mount of the Olives, Jesus sent forth two disciples,

³⁰ And having sung, they went out into the mount of the Olives.

³⁹ And going out, he went as he was wont to the mount of the Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

²⁵ And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises to God; and the prisoners listened to them.

¹⁵ What then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also; I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

¹⁸ And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess, but be filled with the Spirit; ¹⁹ speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; ²⁰ giving thanks always for all things, to God and the Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another, with psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, in grace singing in your hearts to God.

¹³ Is any afflicted among you, let him pray. Is any cheerful, let him sing praise.

⁹ And they sing a new song, saying: Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open its seals; because thou wast slain, and didst redeem to God by thy blood out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

³¹ Then Jesus says to them: All ye will be offended because of me this night. For it is written: I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

³¹ And the Lord said: Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked for you, to sift as the wheat. ³² But I prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not; and thou, when thou hast turned, strengthen thy brethren.

¹ THESE things I have spoken to you, that ye should not be offended.

³² Behold, an hour is coming, and has come, that ye will be scattered, each one to his own, and will leave me alone; and I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

¹⁶ At my first answer no one came forward with me, but all forsook me. May it not be laid to their charge!

²¹ From that time Jesus began to show to his disciples, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.

³² But after I have risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

⁷ And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead. And behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there ye shall see him. Behold, I told you.

¹⁰ Then Jesus says to them: Be not afraid; go, bear word to my brethren, to go away into Galilee, and there they shall see me.

¹⁶ And the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

⁷ But go, say to his disciples, and to Peter, that he goes before you into Galilee. There shall ye see him, as he said to you.

¹ AFTER these things Jesus manifested himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and he manifested himself in this manner.

⁴ and that he was buried, and that he has risen on the third day according to the Scriptures; ⁵ and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve; ⁶ after that, he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep.

³³ Peter answering said to him: Though all shall be offended because of thee, I will never be offended. ³⁴ Jesus said to him: Verily I say to thee, that this night, before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me. ³⁵ Peter says to him: Even though I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

³³ And he said to him: Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both to prison and to death. ³⁴ And he said: I say to thee, Peter, a cock will not crow this day, till thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁶ Simon Peter says to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him: Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterward. ³⁷ Peter says to him: Lord, why can not I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee. ³⁸ Jesus answers: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

¹⁵ When therefore they had broken their fast, Jesus says to Simon Peter: Simon, son of Jonah, lovest thou me more than these? He says to him: Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He says to him: Feed my lambs.

⁶⁹ And Peter was sitting without, in the court. And a damsel came to him, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean. ⁷⁰ But he denied before all, saying: I know not what thou sayest. ⁷¹ And he having gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said to those who were there: This man also was with Jesus the Nazarene. ⁷² And again he denied, with an oath: I do not know the man. ⁷³ And after a little while, they that stood by came and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech betrays thee. ⁷⁴ Then he began to invoke curses, and to swear: I do not know the man. And immediately a cock crowed. ⁷⁵ And Peter remembered the word of Jesus when he said: Before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶⁶ And Peter being below in the court, there comes one of the maid-servants of the high priest; ⁶⁷ and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said: Thou also wast with Jesus the Nazarene. ⁶⁸ But he denied, saying: I do not know, nor do I understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the fore-court; and a cock crowed. ⁶⁹ And the maid-servant, seeing him, began again to say to those standing by: This is one of them. ⁷⁰ And he again denied it. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilaean. ⁷¹ But he began to invoke curses, and to swear: I do not know this man of whom ye speak. ⁷² And a cock crowed a second time. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus said to him: Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And as he thought thereon, he wept.

³⁴ And he said: I say to thee, Peter, a cock will not crow this day, till thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

⁵⁴ And they took him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off. ⁵⁵ And they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and sat down together, Peter sat down among them. ⁵⁶ And a certain maid seeing him as he sat by the fire, and looking intently upon him, said: This man also was with him. ⁵⁷ And he denied him, saying: Woman, I do not know him. ⁵⁸ And after a little while, another seeing him said: Thou also art of them. And Peter said: Man, I am not. ⁵⁹ And about the space of one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying: Of a truth this one also was with him; for he is a Galilaean. ⁶⁰ And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crowed. ⁶¹ And the Lord turning looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him: Before a cock crows this day, thou wilt deny me thrice. ⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

¹⁷ Then the damsel that kept the door says to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He says: I am not.

²⁵ And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art thou also one of his disciples? He denied, and said: I am not. ²⁶ One of the servants of the high priest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, says: Did not I see thee in the garden with him? ²⁷ Again therefore Peter denied; and immediately a cock crowed.

¹² Wherefore let him that thinks he stands, take heed lest he fall.

³⁷ Peter says to him: Lord, why can not I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.

³⁶ Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and says to the disciples: Sit ye here, while I go yonder and pray. ³⁷ And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful, and to be troubled. ³⁸ Then says he to them: My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, unto death. Tarry ye here, and watch with me. ³⁹ And going forward a little, he fell on his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me. But yet, not as I will, but as thou wilt. ⁴⁰ And he comes to the disciples, and finds them sleeping; and he says to Peter: Were ye so unable to watch with me one hour? ⁴¹ Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ⁴² Again, a second time, he went away and prayed, saying: My Father, if this can not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. ⁴³ And coming he again found them sleeping; for their eyes were heavy. ⁴⁴ And leaving them, he went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. ⁴⁵ Then he comes to his disciples, and says to them: Do ye sleep the remaining time, and take your rest! Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. ⁴⁶ Rise, let us be going. Behold, he is at hand that betrays me.

³⁶ And he said: Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee; take away this cup from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.

³⁹ And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words.

³⁹ And going out, he went as he was wont to the mount of the Olives; and his disciples also followed him. ⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said to them: Pray that ye enter not into temptation. ⁴¹ And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw; and kneeling down, he prayed, ⁴² saying: Father, if thou art willing to remove this cup from me! Yet, not my will but thine be done. ⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. ⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. ⁴⁵ And rising up from prayer, and coming to the disciples, he found them sleeping, from sorrow. ⁴⁶ And he said to them: Why sleep ye? Arise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

¹ HAVING spoken these words, Jesus went out with his disciples beyond the brook Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered and his disciples. ² And Judas also, his betrayer knew the place; because Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples. ³ Judas therefore, having received the band and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, comes thither with torches and lamps and weapons. ⁴ Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon him, went forth and said to them: Whom do ye seek? ⁵ They answered him: Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus says to them: I am he. And Judas also, his betrayer, was standing with them. ⁶ When therefore he said to them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground. ⁷ Again therefore he asked them: Whom do ye seek? And they said: Jesus the Nazarene. ⁸ Jesus answered: I told you that I am he; if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way; ⁹ that the saying might be fulfilled, which he spoke: Of those whom thou hast given me, I lost none. ¹⁰ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus. ¹¹ Jesus therefore said to Peter: Put up thy sword into the sheath. The cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?

³⁷ And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful, and to be troubled. ³⁸ Then says he to them: My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, unto death. Tarry ye here, and watch with me.

¹⁶ And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, Simon's brother, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen. ¹⁷ And Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I will cause you to become fishers of men. ¹⁸ And immediately leaving the nets, they followed him. ¹⁹ And going a little further, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending the nets.

³⁷ And he suffered no one to follow with him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

² And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, and brings them up into a high mountain apart by themselves. And he was transfigured before them.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

⁷ who, in the days of his flesh offering up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and being heard on account of his godly fear,

³⁵ watch therefore, for ye know not when the master of the house comes, at evening, or at midnight, or at the cock-crowing, or in the morning; ³⁶ lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. ³⁷ And what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.

³⁷ And he comes, and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter: Simon, sleepest thou? Couldest thou not watch one hour? ³⁸ Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

²⁷ Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour! But for this cause came I unto this hour.

¹⁸ praying at every fitting season in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints; ¹⁹ and for me, that utterance may be given to me, in the opening of my mouth with boldness, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

⁷ But the end of all things is at hand. Be therefore sober, and watch unto prayer;

⁸ Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary the Devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour;

³⁹ And going forward a little, he fell on his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me. But yet, not as I will, but as thou wilt.

⁴¹ And he comes the third time, and says to them: Do ye sleep the remaining time, and take your rest? It is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

¹⁵ And one of them, seeing that he was healed, turned back, with a loud voice glorifying God, ¹⁶ and fell down on his face at his feet, giving thanks to him; and he was a Samaritan.

²⁵ And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and did reverence to him. ²⁶ But Peter raised him, saying: Stand up; I myself also am a man.

¹⁰ the twenty-four elders will fall down before him who sits upon the throne, and will worship him who lives forever and ever, and will cast their crowns before the throne, saying:

¹⁴ And the four animals said: Amen. And the elders fell down and worshiped.

⁹ Do ye, therefore, pray after this manner: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

²⁷ And Jesus, looking on them, says: With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.

⁴¹ And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw; and kneeling down, he prayed, ⁴² saying: Father, if thou art willing to remove this cup from me! Yet, not my will but thine be done.

³⁴ Jesus says to them: My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work.

³⁰ I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

³⁸ Because I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me. ³⁹ And this is the will of him who sent me, that of all which he has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

¹¹ Jesus therefore said to Peter: Put up thy sword into the sheath. The cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?

¹⁵ For ye did not receive the spirit of bondage, again to fear; but ye received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. ¹⁶ The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are children of God;

⁶ And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

⁸ And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

¹³ if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he can not deny himself.

² upon hope of eternal life, which God, who can not lie, promised before eternal ages,

⁷ who, in the days of his flesh offering up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and being heard on account of his godly fear, ⁸ though a Son yet learned from what he suffered the [required] obedience,

¹⁸ that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible that God should lie, we may have strong encouragement, who fled for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before us,

⁵ While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

⁴⁰ And he comes to the disciples, and finds them sleeping; and he says to Peter: Were ye so unable to watch with me one hour?

²⁹ And Peter said to him: Though all shall be offended, yet will not I. ³⁰ And Jesus says to him: Verily I say to thee, that thou this day, in this night, before a cock crows twice, wilt thrice deny me. ³¹ But he said the more vehemently: If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. Likewise also said they all.

⁴⁰ And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what to answer him. ⁴¹ And he comes the third time, and says to them: Do ye sleep the remaining time, and take your rest? It is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

³¹ who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, which he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem. ³² But Peter and they who were with him were heavy with sleep; and awaking, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

⁶ So then let us not sleep, as others; but let us watch and be sober. ⁷ For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunken, are drunken in the night. ⁸ But let us, being of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet, the hope of salvation;

³ For consider him who has endured such contradiction by sinners against him, that ye become not weary, fainting in your souls.

¹³ And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

⁴² Watch therefore; for ye know not in what day your Lord comes.

¹³ Watch, therefore; because ye know not the day, nor the hour!

⁴¹ Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

³⁴ And he says to them: My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, unto death; tarry here, and watch.

³⁶ And watch, in every time praying that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said to them: Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴⁶ And he said to them: Why sleep ye? Arise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

¹⁸ For I know that there dwells not in me, that is, in my flesh, any good; for to desire is present with me; but to perform that which is good I find not. ¹⁹ For the good that I desire, I do not; but the evil that I desire not, that I do. ²⁰ But if what I desire not, that I do, it is no more I that perform it, but the sin that dwells in me. ²¹ I find then the law, that, when I desire to do good, evil is present with me. ²² For I delight in the law of God after the inward man. ²³ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. ²⁴ Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from the body of this death? ²⁵ I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then I myself with the mind serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

¹³ Watch, stand fast in the faith, acquit you like men, be strong.

¹⁷ For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other, that ye may not do those things that ye would.

¹² Wherefore, my beloved, as ye always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

² Be watchful, and strengthen the remaining things, that were ready to die; for I have not found thy works complete before my God. ³ Remember therefore how thou hast received, and didst hear, and keep, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come upon thee.

¹⁰ Because thou didst keep my word of patient endurance, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which is about to come upon the whole world, to try those who dwell upon the earth.

⁷ But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do; for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

⁴² Again, a second time, he went away and prayed, saying: My Father, if this can not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. ⁴³ And coming he again found them sleeping; for their eyes were heavy. ⁴⁴ And leaving them, he went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.

¹ And he spoke also a parable to them, to the end that they ought always to pray, and not to faint;

⁸ Concerning this I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

³³ And they came to Capernaum. And having come into the house he inquired of them: Of what were ye reasoning among yourselves by the way? ³⁴ But they were silent; for by the way they had disputed with one another, who was greatest.

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

² Ye know that after two days comes the passover, and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified.

⁹ And he said to them: Well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition!

³¹ For he taught his disciples, and said to them: The Son of man is delivered up into the hands of men, and they will kill him and when he is killed, after three days he will rise again.

³³ Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be delivered up to the chief priests, and to the scribes; and they will condemn him to death and will deliver him up to the Gentiles; ³⁴ and they will mock him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and will kill him; and after three days he will rise again.

¹⁰ And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, to deliver him up to them.

¹⁸ And as they were reclining at table, and eating, Jesus said: Verily I say to you, that one of you will betray me, one that eats with me!

³⁵ And going forward a little, he fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

³⁰ Therefore they sought to seize him; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

²⁰ These words he spoke in the treasury, while teaching in the temple; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

²³ And Jesus answered them, saying: The hour has come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

¹ AND before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that his hour has come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, loved them to the end. ² And supper being served, the Devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

¹ THESE words spoke Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said: Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee;

⁵² Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? And they slew those who announced beforehand concerning the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have now become the betrayers and murderers;

⁴⁶ Rise, let us be going. Behold, he is at hand that betrays me.

¹ HAVING spoken these words, Jesus went out with his disciples beyond the brook Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered and his disciples. ² And Judas also, his betrayer knew the place; because Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.

⁴⁷ And while he was yet speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people. ⁴⁸ And his betrayer gave them a sign, saying: Whom I shall kiss, that is he; hold him fast. ⁴⁹ And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said: Hail, Rabbi; and kissed him. ⁵⁰ And Jesus said to him: Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then they came, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him fast. ⁵¹ And, behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and striking the servant of the high priest took off his ear. ⁵² Then says Jesus to him: Put back thy sword into its place; for all they who take the sword shall perish with the sword. ⁵³ Thinkest thou that I can not now pray to my Father, and he will send me more than twelve legions of angels? ⁵⁴ How then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? ⁵⁵ In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes: Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and staves, to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hold of me. ⁵⁶ But all this has been done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all forsook him, and fled.

⁴⁷ While he was yet speaking, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss him. ⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him: Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? ⁴⁹ And they who were about him, seeing what would follow, said to him: Lord, shall we smite with the sword? ⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and took off his right ear. ⁵¹ And Jesus answering said: Suffer thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him. ⁵² And Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders, who were come to him: Have ye come out as against a robber, with swords and staves? ⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

¹⁶ Men, brethren, it was necessary that the scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus.

⁴⁸ And his betrayer gave them a sign, saying: Whom I shall kiss, that is he; hold him fast. ⁴⁹ And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said: Hail, Rabbi; and kissed him. ⁵⁰ And Jesus said to him: Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then they came, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him fast.

²³ And having laid many stripes on them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely;

²⁸ and in nothing terrified by the adversaries; which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

¹⁷ The salutation of Paul with my own hand, which is a token in every letter; so I write.

⁷ and the greetings in the markets, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi. ⁸ But be not ye called Rabbi; for one is your Teacher, and all ye are brethren. ⁹ And call not any your father on the earth; for one is your Father, he who is in heaven. ¹⁰ Neither be called leaders; for one is your leader, the Christ.

¹⁴ And they come and say to him: Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest for no one; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

⁴⁶ And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

¹³ Ye call me the Teacher, and the Master; and ye say well, for so I am. ¹⁴ If I then, the Master and the Teacher, washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

¹⁶ Jesus says to her: Mary! Turning, she says to him in Hebrew: Rabboni! (which is to say, Teacher!)

¹² So the band, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him,

⁵¹ And, behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and striking the servant of the high priest took off his ear. ⁵² Then says Jesus to him: Put back thy sword into its place; for all they who take the sword shall perish with the sword. ⁵³ Thinkest thou that I can not now pray to my Father, and he will send me more than twelve legions of angels? ⁵⁴ How then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

⁴⁹ And they who were about him, seeing what would follow, said to him: Lord, shall we smite with the sword? ⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and took off his right ear. ⁵¹ And Jesus answering said: Suffer thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵⁵ In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes: Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and staves, to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hold of me.

²² And all this has come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:

²³ And when he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said: By what authority doest thou these things; and who gave thee this authority? ²⁴ And Jesus answering said to them: I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I too will tell you by what authority I do these things. ²⁵ John's immersion, whence was it? From heaven, or from men? And they reasoned among themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven, he will say to us: Why then did ye not believe him? ²⁶ But if we say, From men, we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet. ²⁷ And they answered Jesus, saying: We do not know. And he said to them: Neither do I say to you, by what authority I do these things.

¹⁵ And they come into Jerusalem. And entering into the temple, he began to cast out those who sold and bought in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers, and the seats of those who sold doves; ¹⁶ and suffered not that any one should carry a vessel through the temple. ¹⁷ And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written: My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? But ye have made it a den of robbers. ¹⁸ And the chief priests and the scribes heard it. And they sought how they might destroy him; for they feared him, for all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

²⁷ And they come again into Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders.

³⁵ And Jesus answering said, while teaching in the temple: How say the scribes that the Christ is son of David?

⁴⁷ And he was teaching daily in the temple; and the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people were seeking to destroy him,

³⁷ And in the daytime he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called Olivet. ³⁸ And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.

³⁷ For I say to you, that yet this which is written must be accomplished in me: And he was reckoned among transgressors; for the things concerning me have an end.

²⁵ Then he said to them: O foolish, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

⁴⁴ And he said to them: These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and psalms, concerning me. ⁴⁵ Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the Scriptures.

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried, teaching in the temple and saying: Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not. ²⁹ I know him; because I am from him, and he sent me. ³⁰ Therefore they sought to seize him; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³⁷ In the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink.

² And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and having sat down, he was teaching them.

¹² Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.

²³ And Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon.

²⁰ Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews assemble; and I spoke nothing in secret.

²⁷ And Jesus says to them: All ye will be offended; because it is written: I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.

⁸ Jesus answered: I told you that I am he; if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way;

¹⁴ But when ye see the abomination of desolation standing where it ought not, (let him that reads, mark!) then let those in Judaea flee to the mountains. ¹⁵ And he that is upon the house, let him not go down into the house, nor enter in to take anything out of his house. ¹⁶ And he that is in the field, let him not turn back to take his garment.

³ Then assembled together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

⁵⁷ And they who laid hold of Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. ⁵⁸ And Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest; and entering in, he sat with the servants, to see the end. ⁵⁹ And the chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death; ⁶⁰ and found none, though many false witnesses came. But at last came two, ⁶¹ and said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. ⁶² And the high priest arose, and said to him: Answerest thou nothing? What do these witness against thee? ⁶³ But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answering said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God. ⁶⁴ Jesus says to him: Thou saidst it. But I say to you, hereafter ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven. ⁶⁵ Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying: He blasphemed! What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, ye now heard his blasphemy. ⁶⁶ What think ye? They answering said: He is guilty of death. ⁶⁷ Then they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him, ⁶⁸ saying: Prophesy to us, O Christ, who is he that struck thee?

¹ AND straightway, in the morning, the chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole council, having held a consultation, bound Jesus and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.

¹² So the band, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him, ¹³ and led him away to Annas first; for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. ¹⁴ And it was Caiaphas who counseled the Jews, that it is expedient that one man should die for the people.

¹⁹ The high priest therefore asked Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching. ²⁰ Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews assemble; and I spoke nothing in secret. ²¹ Why askest thou me? Ask those who have heard, what I spoke to them. Behold, these know what things I said. ²² And when he had said this, one of the officers who was standing by gave Jesus a blow on the face, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so? ²³ Jesus answered him: If I spoke evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why dost thou smite me? ²⁴ Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

⁵ And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, ⁶ and Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together unto Jerusalem.

⁵⁸ And Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest; and entering in, he sat with the servants, to see the end.

³⁸ Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

⁶⁷ and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said: Thou also wast with Jesus the Nazarene. ⁶⁸ But he denied, saying: I do not know, nor do I understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the fore-court; and a cock crowed.

⁵⁵ And they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and sat down together, Peter sat down among them. ⁵⁶ And a certain maid seeing him as he sat by the fire, and looking intently upon him, said: This man also was with him.

¹⁵ And Simon Peter and the other disciple followed Jesus. That disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest. ¹⁶ But Peter was standing at the door without. Therefore the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

¹⁸ And the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, because it was cold, and were warming themselves; and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.

²⁵ And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art thou also one of his disciples? He denied, and said: I am not.

²² But I say to you, that every one who is angry with his brother, without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment; and whoever shall say to his brother, Raca! shall be in danger of the council; and whoever shall say, Thou fool! shall be in danger of hell-fire.

⁵⁹ And the chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death; ⁶⁰ and found none, though many false witnesses came. But at last came two,

¹¹ Then they suborned men, who said: We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God. ¹² And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes; and coming upon him, they seized him, and brought him to the council, ¹³ and set up false witnesses, Who said: This man ceases not to speak words against this holy place, and the law.

¹ AND after five days, the high priest Ananias came down with the elders and a certain orator named Tertullus, who informed the governor against Paul; ² and he having been called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying: Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are done for this nation through thy providence, in every way and everywhere; ³ we accept it, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness. ⁴ But, not to hinder thee too long, I pray thee that thou wouldst hear us of thy clemency a few words. ⁵ For we have found this man to be a pest, and exciting disturbance among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes; ⁶ who also attempted to profane the temple; whom we took, [and desired to judge according to our law. ⁷ But Lysias the chief captain came, and with great violence took him away out of our hands, ⁸ commanding his accusers to come before thee;] from whom thou canst thyself ascertain, by examination, concerning all these things whereof we accuse him. ⁹ And the Jews also joined in assailing him, saying that these things were so. ¹⁰ Then Paul, the governor having beckoned to him to speak, answered: Knowing that thou hast been for many years a judge for this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself; ¹¹ inasmuch as thou mayest know, that there are not more than twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem to worship; ¹² and neither in the temple did they find me disputing with any one, or causing a tumult of the people, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city; ¹³ nor can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.

¹⁶ having a good conscience, that wherein they speak against you as evil-doers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good deportment in Christ. ¹⁷ For it is better, if it be the will of God, that ye suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing. ¹⁸ Because Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive by the Spirit;

⁶⁰ and found none, though many false witnesses came. But at last came two, ⁶¹ and said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.

⁴⁰ and saying: Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.

²⁹ And they that passed by railed at him, wagging their heads, and saying: Aha, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days;

¹⁸ The Jews therefore answered and said to him: What sign dost thou show to us, seeing that thou doest these things? ¹⁹ Jesus answered and said to them: Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. ²⁰ Therefore said the Jews: Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou raise it up in three days? ²¹ But he said it of the temple of his body.

¹³ and set up false witnesses, Who said: This man ceases not to speak words against this holy place, and the law. ¹⁴ For we have heard him say, that this Jesus the Nazarene will destroy this place, and will change the customs which Moses delivered to us.

¹⁹ Jesus answered and said to them: Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

⁴⁸ Yet the Most High dwells not in temples made with hands; as says the prophet:

¹ FOR we know that, if our earthly house of the tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

¹¹ But Christ, having come as a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands (that is, not of this creation),

²⁴ For Christ entered not into holy places made with hands, figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

⁶² And the high priest arose, and said to him: Answerest thou nothing? What do these witness against thee? ⁶³ But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answering said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God.

³ And the chief priests accused him of many things. ⁴ And Pilate asked him again, saying: Answerest thou nothing? Behold what things they testify against thee. ⁵ But Jesus no longer made any answer; so that Pilate marveled.

⁹ And he went again into the palace, and says to Jesus: Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. ¹⁰ Then says Pilate to him: Dost thou not speak to me? Knowest thou not that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee?

¹⁷ And lo, a voice out of heaven, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

²⁹ And, behold, they cried out, saying: What have we to do with thee, Son of God? Camest thou hither to torment us before the time?

³ and said to him: Art thou he that comes, or look we for another? ⁴ And Jesus answering said to them: Go and report to John what ye hear and see. ⁵ The blind receive sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and to the poor good tidings are published.

¹⁶ And Simon Peter answering said: Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

⁶³ But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answering said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God. ⁶⁴ Jesus says to him: Thou saidst it. But I say to you, hereafter ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

¹² And when he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he made no answer. ¹³ Then says Pilate to him: Hearest thou not what things they witness against thee? ¹⁴ And he made him no answer, not even to one word; so that the governor greatly wondered.

⁶¹ But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said to 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 with the clouds of heaven. ⁶³ And the high priest, rending his clothes, says: What further need have we of witnesses?

² And Pilate asked him: Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said to him: Thou sayest it.

⁶⁷ If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them: If I tell you, ye will not believe. ⁶⁸ And if I ask, ye will not answer. ⁶⁹ But henceforth shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. ⁷⁰ And they all said: Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them: Ye say it; for I am. ⁷¹ And they said: Why need we any further witness? For we ourselves heard it from his own mouth.

³⁴ And I have seen, and have borne witness, that this is the Son of God.

⁴⁹ Nathanael answered: Rabbi; thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel. ⁵⁰ Jesus answered and said to him: Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, believest thou? Thou shalt see greater things than these. ⁵¹ And he says to him: Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth ye shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

¹⁸ For this therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath, but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God. ¹⁹ Jesus therefore, answered and said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do; for what things soever he does, these also does the Son in like manner. ²⁰ For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and greater works than these will he show him, that ye may marvel. ²¹ For as the Father raises up the dead, and quickens them; so also the Son quickens whom he will. ²² For neither does the Father judge any one; but all judgment he has given to the Son; ²³ that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son, honors not the Father who sent him.

²⁴ The Jews therefore came around him, and said to him: How long dost thou hold us in doubt? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.

³⁰ I and the Father are one. ³¹ The Jews therefore took up stones again to stone him.

³⁶ say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am the Son of God?

³⁷ Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest it; because I am a king. To this end have I been born, and to this end have I come into the world, that I may bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.

⁷ The Jews answered him: We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

⁹ And he went again into the palace, and says to Jesus: Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

³² And the contents of the Scripture which he was reading was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; And as a lamb dumb before his shearer, So he opens not his mouth.

¹¹ according to the glorious gospel of the blissful God, with which I was entrusted.

¹⁵ which in his own times he will show, who is the blissful and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

²³ who when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, threatened not; but committed it to him who judges righteously;

³⁰ And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.

⁶⁴ Jesus says to him: Thou saidst it. But I say to you, hereafter ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

¹¹ And Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor questioned him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? And Jesus said to him: Thou sayest it.

²⁶ And then shall they see the Son of man coming in clouds, with great power and glory.

¹⁹ The Lord therefore, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down on the right hand of God;

⁶⁹ But henceforth shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

³ And Pilate asked him, saying: Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said to him: Thou sayest it.

⁹ And having spoken these things, while they beheld he was borne up, and a cloud received him out of their sight. ¹⁰ And while they were looking intently into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; ¹¹ who also said: Men of Galilee, why stand ye looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye saw him going into heaven.

⁷ and to you who are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power, ⁸ in flaming fire, taking vengeance on those who know not God, and those who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ; ⁹ who shall suffer justice, eternal destruction, from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his power; ¹⁰ when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all who believed (because our testimony to you was believed), in that day.

³ who, being the brightness of his glory and the impress of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made a cleansing of sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

¹ Now of the things which we are saying, this is the chief: We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty of the heavens;

¹⁰ For this is the covenant that I will establish for the house of Israel, After those days, saith the Lord, Putting my laws into their mind, And on their hearts I will write them; And I will be to them a God, And they shall be to me a people;

¹² Because I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, And their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more. ¹³ In that he says, A new, he has made the first old. Now that which is grown old, and worn out with age, is ready to vanish away.

² looking away to the author and finisher of the faith, Jesus; who for the joy set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down on the right hand of the throne of God.

⁷ Behold, he comes amidst the clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and him who sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.

⁶⁵ Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying: He blasphemed! What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, ye now heard his blasphemy.

¹³ And the priest of Jupiter, that was before the city, having brought oxen and garlands to the gates, would have offered sacrifice with the people. ¹⁴ But the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, hearing of it, rent their clothes, and rushed forth to the multitude; crying out,

⁶⁵ Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying: He blasphemed! What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, ye now heard his blasphemy. ⁶⁶ What think ye? They answering said: He is guilty of death.

⁷¹ And they said: Why need we any further witness? For we ourselves heard it from his own mouth.

¹⁸ For this therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath, but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God.

⁵⁸ Jesus said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am. ⁵⁹ They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.

³¹ The Jews therefore took up stones again to stone him.

³⁴ and they will mock him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and will kill him; and after three days he will rise again.

¹⁹ And they smote him on the head with a reed, and spit upon him, and kneeling down, did homage to him.

⁶³ And the men who held Jesus mocked him, beating him; ⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him they asked him, saying: Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

²² And when he had said this, one of the officers who was standing by gave Jesus a blow on the face, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so?

³ and said: Hail, King of the Jews! And they gave him blows on the face.

² And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to smite him on the mouth.

⁵⁴ And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the high priest, and was sitting with the officers, and warming himself at the fire.

¹⁵ And Simon Peter and the other disciple followed Jesus. That disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest. ¹⁶ But Peter was standing at the door without. Therefore the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. ¹⁷ Then the damsel that kept the door says to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He says: I am not. ¹⁸ And the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, because it was cold, and were warming themselves; and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.

²³ And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets: He shall be called a Nazarene.

¹¹ And the multitudes said: This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth of Galilee.

²⁴ saying: What have we to do with thee, Jesus, Nazarene! Didst thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.

⁴⁷ And hearing that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say: Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me.

⁴⁵ Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him: We have found him of whom Moses, in the law, and the prophets wrote, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth. ⁴⁶ And Nathanael said to him: Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip says to him: Come and see. ⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! ⁴⁸ Nathanael says to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him: Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee. ⁴⁹ Nathanael answered: Rabbi; thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel.

¹⁹ And Pilate wrote also a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was: JESUS THE NAZARENE THE KING OF THE JEWS.

³⁸ how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power; who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the Devil; because God was with him.

⁷¹ And he having gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said to those who were there: This man also was with Jesus the Nazarene. ⁷² And again he denied, with an oath: I do not know the man.

⁷² And a cock crowed a second time. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus said to him: Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And as he thought thereon, he wept.

¹² if we endure, we shall also reign with him; if we shall deny him, he also will deny us; ¹³ if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he can not deny himself.

⁵⁸ And after a little while, another seeing him said: Thou also art of them. And Peter said: Man, I am not.

¹ BRETHREN, even if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye who are spiritual restore such a one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

⁷³ And after a little while, they that stood by came and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech betrays thee. ⁷⁴ Then he began to invoke curses, and to swear: I do not know the man. And immediately a cock crowed.

⁶⁸ But he denied, saying: I do not know, nor do I understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the fore-court; and a cock crowed.

⁵⁹ And about the space of one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying: Of a truth this one also was with him; for he is a Galilaean. ⁶⁰ And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crowed.

⁷ And all were amazed, and wondered, saying one to another Behold, are not all these who speak Galilaeans?

³⁴ Jesus said to him: Verily I say to thee, that this night, before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me.

³⁰ And Jesus says to him: Verily I say to thee, that thou this day, in this night, before a cock crows twice, wilt thrice deny me.

¹⁷ And coming to himself, he said: How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I perish here with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him: Father, I sinned against heaven, and before thee. ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hired servants.

⁶⁰ And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crowed.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

¹⁰ For godly sorrow works repentance unto salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world works out death.
