¹ After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread.

Afterward he sought a favorable opportunity to deliver him up. ¹² Now the first day of unleavened bread, when the passover is sacrificed, his disciples said to him, Whither shall we go to prepare for your eating the passover? ¹³ Then he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, Go into the city, where you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him; ¹⁴ and wherever he shall enter, 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 ready furnished. There prepare for us. ¹⁶ Accordingly, his disciples went away, and being come into the city, found everything as he had told them, and prepared the passover. ¹⁷ In the evening he went thither with the twelve. ¹⁸ As they were at table eating, Jesus said, Indeed, I say to you, that one of you who eats with me, will betray me. ¹⁹ Upon this they became very sorrowful; and asked him, all of them, one after another, Is it I? ²⁰ He answering, said to them, It is one of the twelve; he who dips his morsel in the dish with me. ²¹ The Son of Man departs in the manner foretold in the scripture concerning him; but alas for that man! by whom the Son of Man is betrayed: it had been better for that man never to have been born. ²² While they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and after blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, Take; this is my body. ²³ Then he took the cup, and having given thanks, gave it to them; and they all drank of it. ²⁴ And he said to them, This is my blood, the blood of the new institution, shed for many. ²⁵ Indeed, I say to you, that I will drink no more of the product of the vine, till that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God. ²⁶ And after the hymn, they went to the Mount of Olives. ²⁷ And Jesus said to them, This night I shall prove a stumbling stone to you all; for it is written, "I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be dispersed." ²⁸ Nevertheless, after I am raised again, I will go before you to Galilee. ²⁹ Peter then said to him, Though they all should stumble, I never will. ³⁰ Jesus answered him, Indeed, I say to you, that today, this very night, before the cock crow twice, even you will disown me thrice. ³¹ But Peter insisted on it, adding, Although I should die with you, I will never disown you.

Could you not keep awake a single hour? ³⁸ Watch and pray, that you be not overcome by temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ³⁹ Again, he retired and prayed, using the same words. ⁴⁰ When he returned, he again found them sleeping; for their eyes were overpowered, and they knew not what to answer him. ⁴¹ A third time he came, and said to them, Do you now sleep, and take your rest?

But in this the scriptures are accomplished. ⁵⁰ Then they all forsook him and fled. ⁵¹ Now there followed him a youth, who had only a linen cloth wrapped about his body; the soldiers having laid hold of him, ⁵² he left the cloth, and fled from them naked. ⁵³ Then they took Jesus away to the high priest, with whom all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes, were convened. ⁵⁴ And Peter followed him at a distance, as far as the court of the high priest's house, and sat there with the officers, warming himself at the fire. ⁵⁵ Meanwhile, the chief priests, and all the Sanhedrin, sought for evidence against Jesus, in order to condemn him to die, but found none: ⁵⁶ for many gave false testimony against him, but their testimonies were insufficient. ⁵⁷ The some arose, who testified falsely against him, saying, ⁵⁸ We heard him say, I will demolish this temple made with hands, and in three days will build another without hands. ⁵⁹ But even here their testimony was defective. ⁶⁰ Then the high priest, standing up in the midst, interrogated Jesus, saying, Do you answer nothing to what these men testify against you? ⁶¹ But he was silent, and gave no answer.

Immediately he went out into the portico, and the cock crew. ⁶⁹ The maid seeing him again, said to the bystanders, This is one of them. ⁷⁰ Again he denied.

Now Judas, who betrayed him, was with them. ⁶ He had no sooner said to them, I am he, than they, going backward, fell to the ground. ⁷ He, therefore, asked them again, Whom do you seek? They said, Jesus, the Nazarene. ⁸ Jesus answered, I have told you, that I am he. If, therefore, you seek me, let these go away.

⁸ Jesus answered, I have told you, that I am he. If, therefore, you seek me, let these go away. ⁹ Thus was that which he had spoken verified, Of those whom thou gavest me, I have lost none. ¹⁰ Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant's name was Malchus. ¹¹ Jesus then said to Peter, Put up the sword into the scabbard. Shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?

¹¹ Jesus then said to Peter, Put up the sword into the scabbard. Shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me? ¹² Then the cohort, and their commander, and the Jewish officers, apprehended Jesus; and having bound him,

¹² Then the cohort, and their commander, and the Jewish officers, apprehended Jesus; and having bound him, ¹³ brought him first to Annas, because he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. ¹⁴ Now it was Caiaphas, who had said in council to the Jews, It is expedient that one man die for the people. ¹⁵ Meantime Simon Peter, and another disciple, followed Jesus. That disciple, being known to the high priest, entered his court with Jesus.

¹⁵ Meantime Simon Peter, and another disciple, followed Jesus. That disciple, being known to the high priest, entered his court with Jesus. ¹⁶ But Peter stood without, at the door. Therefore the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out, and spoke to the portress, and brought in Peter.

¹⁶ But Peter stood without, at the door. Therefore the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out, and spoke to the portress, and brought in Peter. ¹⁷ Then the maid, the portress, said to Peter, Are not you also one of this man's disciples? He answered, I am not.

¹⁷ Then the maid, the portress, said to Peter, Are not you also one of this man's disciples? He answered, I am not. ¹⁸ Now, the servants and the officers, stood near a fire, which they had made, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.

¹⁸ Now, the servants and the officers, stood near a fire, which they had made, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And Peter was standing with them, and warming himself. ¹⁹ Then the high priest interrogated Jesus concerning his disciples and his doctrine. ²⁰ Jesus answered, I spoke openly to the world; I always taught in the synagogues and in the temple, whither the Jews constantly resort. I said nothing in secret.

²⁰ Jesus answered, I spoke openly to the world; I always taught in the synagogues and in the temple, whither the Jews constantly resort. I said nothing in secret. ²¹ Why do you examine me? Examine them who heard me teach. They know what I said. ²² When he had spoken thus, one of the officers who attended, gave him a blow, and said, Do you answer the high priest thus?

²² When he had spoken thus, one of the officers who attended, gave him a blow, and said, Do you answer the high priest thus? ²³ Jesus replied, If I have spoken amiss, show in what the wrong consists: but if well, why do you smite me? ²⁴ Now, Annas had sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest. ²⁵ As Peter stood warming himself, they asked him, Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.

²⁵ As Peter stood warming himself, they asked him, Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not. ²⁶ One of the servants of the high priest, a kinsman to him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, Did I not see you in the garden with him? ²⁷ Peter denied again; and immediately the cock crew.

³⁷ Then Pilate said, You are a King, then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a King. For this I was born; and for this I came into the world, to give testimony to the truth. Whosoever is of the truth, hearkens to me.

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

⁷ The Jews answered, We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he assumed the title of the Son of God.

⁹ and having returned to the praetorium, said to Jesus, Whence are you? But Jesus gave him no answer.

⁹ and having returned to the praetorium, said to Jesus, Whence are you? But Jesus gave him no answer. ¹⁰ Then Pilate said to him, Will you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to crucify you, and power to release you?

¹⁹ Pilate also wrote a title, and put it on the cross. The words were, JESUS, THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

¹³ Watch; stand fast in the faith; acquit yourselves like men; be strong.

²⁵ (for the name of Hagar denotes Mount Sinai, in Arabia,) and she answers to the present Jerusalem, and is in bondage with her children.

¹⁷ For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things you would.

¹ Also, brethren, if a man be surprised into any fault, you, the spiritual men, set such a one right again in the spirit of meekness; taking a view of yourself, lest even you be tempted.

¹² Have your behavior comely, among the Gentiles, that, whereas, they speak against you, as evil doers, having beheld your good works, they may glorify God, in the day of visitation.

²³ who, when he was reviled, did not revile in return; when he suffered he did not threaten, but committed his cause to him who judges righteously-

¹⁶ Hold fast a good conscience, that, whereas they speak against you as evil doers, they may be put to shame who arraign your good behavior in Christ. ¹⁷ For it is better to suffer as well doers, if the will of God appoints it, than as evil doers. ¹⁸ For even Christ once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God; being put to death, indeed, in the flesh, but made alive by the Spirit.

⁷ Now the end of all things has approached; be, therefore, sober, and watch to prayer.

⁸ Be sober, be vigilant: your adversary, the devil, is walking about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour:

¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

²⁸ Indeed, I say to you, that though all other sins in the sons of men are pardonable, and whatever slanders they shall utter;

³⁷ And he allowed no person to follow him except Peter and James, and John, the brother of James.

¹¹ But wheresoever they will not receive you, nor hear you, shake off the dust under your feet at your departure, as a protestation against them.

⁴¹ Then Jesus taking the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before the multitude. He distributed also the two fishes among them all.

⁹ You judge well, continued he, in annulling the commandment of God, to make room for your traditions.

¹² Jesus answered with a deep groan, Wherefore does this generation require a sign? Indeed, I say to you, that no sign shall be given to this generation.

¹ He added, Indeed, I say to you, there are some standing here, who shall not taste death, till they see the Reign of God ushered in with power. ² After six days, Jesus took Peter, and James, and John, apart to the top of a high mountain, and was transfigured in their presence.

³¹ for he was instructing his disciples. And he said to them, The Son of Man will soon be delivered into the hands of men, who will kill him; and after he is killed, he will rise again the third day.

³³ When he was come to Capernaum, being in the house, he asked them, What were you debating amongst yourselves by the way? ³⁴ But they were silent; for they had debated amongst themselves by the way, who should be greatest.

⁴¹ For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink on my account, because you are Christ's; indeed, I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

¹⁵ Indeed, I say to you, whosoever will not receive the kingdom of God as a child, shall never enter it.

¹⁷ As he went out into the road, one came running to him, who, kneeling, asked him, Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁷ Jesus looking upon them, said, To men it is impossible, but not to God; for to God all things are possible.

²⁹ Jesus answering, said, Indeed, I say to you, there is none who shall have forsaken his house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, for my sake and the gospel's;

³³ Behold, says he, we are going to Jerusalem, where the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests, who will condemn him to die, and deliver him to the Gentiles, ³⁴ who will mock him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and kill him; but the third day he shall rise again.

³⁴ who will mock him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and kill him; but the third day he shall rise again.

⁴⁵ For even the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.

⁴⁷ hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, cried, saying, Jesus Son of David, have pity upon me!

² and said to them, Go into the village opposite you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied, on which no man ever rode; loose him, and bring him. ³ And if any person ask you, Wherefore do you this? say, The Master needs him, and he will instantly send him hither.

³ And if any person ask you, Wherefore do you this? say, The Master needs him, and he will instantly send him hither.

¹⁵ Being returned to Jerusalem, he went into the temple, and drove out them who sold, and them who bought in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers, and the stalls of them who sold doves; ¹⁶ and would suffer no person to carry vessels through the temple. ¹⁷ He also taught them, saying, Is it not written, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations?" but you have made it a den of robbers. ¹⁸ And the scribes and the chief priests hearing this, sought means to destroy him; for they dreaded him, because all the multitude admired his doctrine.

¹⁸ And the scribes and the chief priests hearing this, sought means to destroy him; for they dreaded him, because all the multitude admired his doctrine.

²⁷ Again, they arrived at Jerusalem; and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, scribes, and the elders, came,

³² But if we say, From men; we are in danger from the people, who are all convinced that John was a prophet.

¹⁴ These coming up, said to him, Rabbi, we know that you are upright, and stand in awe of none; for you respect not the person of men, but teach the way of God faithfully. Is it lawful to give tribute to Cesar, or not?

³⁵ As Jesus was teaching in the temple, he asked them, Why do you scribes assert, that the Messiah must be a son of David?

¹⁴ But when you shall see standing on forbidden ground, the desolating abomination, (reader, attend!) then let those in Judea flee to the mountains; ¹⁵ and let not him who shall be on the roof, go down into the house, nor enter it, to carry anything out of his house: ¹⁶ and let not him who shall be in the field, turn back to fetch his mantle.

²⁶ Then they shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

³⁵ Watch you, therefore; for you know not when the master of the house will return, (whether in the evening, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or in the morning;) ³⁶ lest coming suddenly, he find you asleep. ³⁷ Now what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.

⁹ Indeed, I say to you, in whatsoever corner of the world the glad tidings shall be proclaimed, what this woman has now done, shall be mentioned to her honor. ¹⁰ Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, repaired to the chief priests, to betray Jesus to them.

¹⁸ As they were at table eating, Jesus said, Indeed, I say to you, that one of you who eats with me, will betray me.

²² While they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and after blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, Take; this is my body.

²⁴ And he said to them, This is my blood, the blood of the new institution, shed for many. ²⁵ Indeed, I say to you, that I will drink no more of the product of the vine, till that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God.

²⁷ And Jesus said to them, This night I shall prove a stumbling stone to you all; for it is written, "I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be dispersed."

²⁹ Peter then said to him, Though they all should stumble, I never will. ³⁰ Jesus answered him, Indeed, I say to you, that today, this very night, before the cock crow twice, even you will disown me thrice.

³⁰ Jesus answered him, Indeed, I say to you, that today, this very night, before the cock crow twice, even you will disown me thrice. ³¹ But Peter insisted on it, adding, Although I should die with you, I will never disown you. And all the rest said the same.

³⁴ said to them, My soul is overwhelmed with a deadly anguish; tarry here and watch. ³⁵ And going a little before, he threw himself on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, he might be delivered from that hour, ³⁶ and said, Abba, (that is, Father,) all things are possible to thee; take this cup away from me; yet not what I would, but what thou wilt. ³⁷ Then he returned, and finding them asleep, said to Peter, Simon, do you sleep? Could you not keep awake a single hour? ³⁸ Watch and pray, that you be not overcome by temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

³⁸ Watch and pray, that you be not overcome by temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ³⁹ Again, he retired and prayed, using the same words. ⁴⁰ When he returned, he again found them sleeping; for their eyes were overpowered, and they knew not what to answer him. ⁴¹ A third time he came, and said to them, Do you now sleep, and take your rest? All is over: the hour is come: and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.

⁴¹ A third time he came, and said to them, Do you now sleep, and take your rest? All is over: the hour is come: and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.

⁴³ Immediately, before he had done speaking, appeared Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude armed with swords and clubs, who were sent by the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders.

⁴⁹ I was daily amongst you, teaching in the temple, and you did not arrest me. But in this the scriptures are accomplished.

⁵⁴ And Peter followed him at a distance, as far as the court of the high priest's house, and sat there with the officers, warming himself at the fire.

⁶¹ But he was silent, and gave no answer. Again, the high priest interrogating him, said, Are you the Messiah, the Son of the blessed One? ⁶² Jesus answered, I am; nay, you shall see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Almighty, and coming in the clouds of heaven. ⁶³ Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, What further need have we of witnesses?

⁶⁶ Now Peter being below in the court, one of the maids of the high priest came thither, ⁶⁷ who seeing Peter warming himself, looked on him, and said, You also were with the Nazarene Jesus.

⁶⁷ who seeing Peter warming himself, looked on him, and said, You also were with the Nazarene Jesus. ⁶⁸ But he denied it, saying, I know him not: nor do I understand what you mean. Immediately he went out into the portico, and the cock crew.

⁶⁸ But he denied it, saying, I know him not: nor do I understand what you mean. Immediately he went out into the portico, and the cock crew.

⁶⁸ But he denied it, saying, I know him not: nor do I understand what you mean. Immediately he went out into the portico, and the cock crew. ⁶⁹ The maid seeing him again, said to the bystanders, This is one of them. ⁷⁰ Again he denied. And a little after, those who were present said to Peter, You are certainly one of them; for you are a Galilean, your speech shows it. ⁷¹ Upon this he affirmed, with imprecations, and oaths, that he did not know the man of whom they spoke. ⁷² The cock crew the second time: and Peter recollected the word which Jesus had said to him, Before the cock crow twice, you will disown me thrice. And reflecting upon this, he wept.

⁷² The cock crew the second time: and Peter recollected the word which Jesus had said to him, Before the cock crow twice, you will disown me thrice. And reflecting upon this, he wept.

¹ Early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the scribes, and all the Sanhedrin, after consulting together, bound Jesus, carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate. ² Pilate, asking him, said, You are the king of the Jews? He answered, You say right. ³ Now the chief priests accused him of many things. ⁴ Again Pilate asked him, saying, Do you answer nothing? Observe how many crimes they arraign you for. ⁵ But Jesus answered no more, insomuch that Pilate was astonished.

¹⁹ Then they struck him on the head with a reed, and spit upon him, and paid him homage on their knees.

²⁹ Meanwhile, they who passed by reviled him, shaking their heads, and saying, Ah! you who could demolish the temple, and rebuild it in three days!

⁴² When it was evening, (because it was the preparation, that is, the eve of the Sabbath,)

⁷ But go, say to his disciples, and to Peter, He is gone before you to Galilee; where you shall see him, as he told you.

¹⁵ And he said unto them, Go throughout all the world, proclaim the glad tidings to the whole creation.

¹⁹ Now, after the Lord had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

²⁴ But in fact, added he, No prophet was ever well received in his own country.

⁴⁶ But why do you, in addressing me, cry, Master, Master, and obey not my commands!

³⁷ And behold, a woman of the city who was a sinner, knowing that he eat at the house of the Pharisee, brought an alabaster box of balsam, ³⁸ and standing behind at his feet weeping, bathed them with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the balsam. ³⁹ The Pharisee, who had invited him, observing this, said within himself, If this man were a prophet, he would have known who this woman is that touches him, and of what character, for she is a sinner.

³¹ conversed with him, and spoke of the departure which he was to accomplish at Jerusalem. ³² Now, Peter, and those that were with him, were overpowered with sleep; but when they awoke, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with them.

² But the Pharisees and the Scribes murmured, saying, This man admits sinners, and eats with them.

¹⁷ At length, coming to himself, he said, How many hirelings has my father, who have all more bread than suffices them, while I perish with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise, and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and you, ¹⁹ and am no longer worthy to be called your son.

¹⁵ And one of them, perceiving that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God aloud. ¹⁶ Then throwing himself prostrate at the feet of Jesus, he returned him thanks. Now this man was a Samaritan.

¹ He also showed them, by a parable, that they ought to persist in prayer, without growing weary.

³⁰ saying, Go to yonder village, where, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, on which no man ever rode; loose him, and bring him. ³¹ If any one ask you why you loose him, you shall answer, Because the Master needs him. ³² Accordingly, they who received this order, went, and found everything as he had told them. ³³ As they were loosing the colt, the owners said to them, Why loose you the colt?

⁴⁷ And he taught daily in the temple, while the chief priests and the scribes, and persons of principal note, sought his destruction;

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

³⁶ Be vigilant, therefore, praying on every occasion, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these approaching evils, and to stand before the Son of Man. ³⁷ Thus Jesus taught in the temple by day, but retired at night to the mountain, called the Mount of Olives. ³⁸ And every morning the people resorted early to the temple to hear him.

¹ Now the feast of unleavened bread, called the passover, being near, ² the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill him, for they feared the people. ³ Then Satan entered into Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve. ⁴ And he went and concerted with the chief priests and officers, how he might deliver Jesus into their hands. ⁵ And they were glad, and agreed to give him a certain sum, ⁶ which Judas having accepted, watched an opportunity to deliver him up without tumult. ⁷ Now, this day of unleavened bread being come, on which the passover must be sacrificed, ⁸ Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare for us the passover, that we may eat it. ⁹ They asked him, Where shall we prepare it? ¹⁰ He answered, When you enter the city, you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he shall enter, ¹¹ and say to the master of the house, The Teacher asks you, Where is the guest-chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples? ¹² And he will show you a large upper room, furnished; make ready there. ¹³ So they went, and having found everything as he had told them, prepared the passover.

¹³ So they went, and having found everything as he had told them, prepared the passover. ¹⁴ When the hour was come, he placed himself at table with the twelve Apostles,

¹⁶ that I will never partake of another, until it be accomplished in the kingdom of God. ¹⁷ Then, taking a cup, he gave thanks, and said, Take this, and share it amongst you;

¹⁷ Then, taking a cup, he gave thanks, and said, Take this, and share it amongst you; ¹⁸ for I assure you, that I will not again drink of the product of the vine, until the Reign of God be come.

¹⁸ for I assure you, that I will not again drink of the product of the vine, until the Reign of God be come. ¹⁹ Then he took bread, and having given thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in commemoration of me. ²⁰ He likewise gave the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new Institution in my blood, which is shed for you. ²¹ Mark, however, that the hand of him who betrays me, is on the table with mine. ²² The Son of Man is going away, as has been determined: nevertheless, alas, for that man by whom he is betrayed!

²² The Son of Man is going away, as has been determined: nevertheless, alas, for that man by whom he is betrayed! ²³ Then they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it could be that would do this.

²⁹ And I grant to you, (forasmuch as my Father has granted me a kingdom,) ³⁰ to eat, and to drink at my table, in my kingdom, and to sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. ³¹ The Lord said, also, Simon, Simon, Satan has obtained permission to sift you as wheat; ³² but I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not; do you, therefore, when you have recovered yourself, confirm your brethren. ³³ He answered, Master, I am ready to accompany you, both to prison, and to death. ³⁴ Jesus replied, I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow today, before you have thrice denied that you know me.

³⁴ Jesus replied, I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow today, before you have thrice denied that you know me. ³⁵ Then he said to them, When I sent you without purse, and bag, and shoes, did you want anything?

³⁷ for I tell you that this scripture, "He was ranked among malefactors," is now to be accomplished in me: for the things relating to me must be fulfilled.

³⁹ Then he went out, and repaired, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him.

³⁹ Then he went out, and repaired, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him. ⁴⁰ Being arrived there, he said to them, Pray that you may not yield to temptation.

⁴⁰ Being arrived there, he said to them, Pray that you may not yield to temptation. ⁴¹ Then, being withdrawn from them about a stone's cast; he kneeled down and prayed,

⁴¹ Then, being withdrawn from them about a stone's cast; he kneeled down and prayed, ⁴² saying, Father, if thou wilt, take this cup away from me; nevertheless, not my will, but thine be done.

⁴² saying, Father, if thou wilt, take this cup away from me; nevertheless, 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 of grief, he prayed the more fervently, and his sweat fell like clotted blood to the ground.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony of grief, he prayed the more fervently, and his sweat fell like clotted blood to the ground. ⁴⁵ Having risen from prayer, and returned to the disciples, he found them sleeping, oppressed with grief; ⁴⁶ and said to them, Why do you sleep? Arise, and pray, lest the trial overcome you.

⁴⁶ and said to them, Why do you sleep? Arise, and pray, lest the trial overcome you. ⁴⁷ Before he had done speaking, he saw a multitude; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, walked before them, and came up to Jesus, to kiss him.

⁴⁷ Before he had done speaking, he saw a multitude; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, walked before them, and came up to Jesus, to kiss him. ⁴⁸ Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss? ⁴⁹ Now, those who were with him, foreseeing what would happen, said to him, Master, shall we strike with the sword?

⁴⁹ Now, those who were with him, foreseeing what would happen, said to him, Master, shall we strike with the sword? ⁵⁰ And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵⁰ And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. ⁵¹ Jesus said, Let this suffice; and touching his ear, he healed him.

⁵¹ Jesus said, Let this suffice; and touching his ear, he healed him. ⁵² Then Jesus said to the chief priests, and the officers of the temple-guard, and the elders, who were come to apprehend him, Do you come with swords and clubs, as in pursuit of a robber? ⁵³ While I was daily with you in the temple, you did not attempt to arrest me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness. ⁵⁴ Then they seized him, and led him away to the high priest's house. And Peter followed at a distance. ⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the court, and were sitting round it, Peter sat down among them.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the court, and were sitting round it, Peter sat down among them. ⁵⁶ And a maid servant, having observed him sitting by the fire, and viewed him attentively, said, This man also was with him.

⁵⁶ And a maid servant, having observed him sitting by the fire, and viewed him attentively, said, This man also was with him. ⁵⁷ But he disowned him, saying, Woman, I know him not. ⁵⁸ A little while after, another seeing him, said, You, also, are one of them. Peter answered, Man, I am not.

⁵⁸ A little while after, another seeing him, said, You, also, are one of them. Peter answered, Man, I am not. ⁵⁹ About an hour after, another averred the same thing, saying, This man was surely with him, for he is a Galilean.

⁵⁹ About an hour after, another averred the same thing, saying, This man was surely with him, for he is a Galilean. ⁶⁰ Peter answered, Man, I know nothing of this matter. And just as he spoke the word, a cock crew.

⁶⁰ Peter answered, Man, I know nothing of this matter. And just as he spoke the word, a cock crew.

⁶⁰ Peter answered, Man, I know nothing of this matter. And just as he spoke the word, a cock crew. ⁶¹ Then the Lord, turning, looked upon Peter, and Peter called to mind the word which the Lord had said to him, Before the cock crow, you will disown me thrice. ⁶² And he went out and wept bitterly.

⁶² And he went out and wept bitterly. ⁶³ Meantime, they who had Jesus in charge, mocked and beat him; ⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him, struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Divine who it is that smote you.

⁶⁷ If you be the Messiah, tell us. He answered, If I tell you, you will not believe: ⁶⁸ and if put a question, you will neither answer me, nor acquit me. ⁶⁹ Hereafter the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of Almighty God.

⁶⁹ Hereafter the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of Almighty God. ⁷⁰ They all replied, You are, then, the Son of God? He answered, You say the truth. ⁷¹ Then they cried, What further need have we of evidence? We have heard enough ourselves, from his own mouth.

⁷¹ Then they cried, What further need have we of evidence? We have heard enough ourselves, from his own mouth.

³ Then Pilate, asking him, said, You are the King of the Jews? He answered, You say right.

⁵³ And having taken it down, he wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a tomb cut in stone, in which no man had ever been deposited.

²⁵ Then he said to them, O thoughtless men, and backward to believe things which have been all predicted by the prophets! ²⁶ Ought not the Messiah thus to suffer, and so to enter into his glory? ²⁷ Then beginning with Moses, and proceeding through all the prophets, he explained to them all the passages relating to himself.

³⁰ While they were at table together, he took the loaf, and blessed and broke it, and distributed to them.

⁴⁴ And he said to them, This is what I told you while I remained with you, that all the things which are written of me in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the Psalms, must be accomplished.

⁴⁴ And he said to them, This is what I told you while I remained with you, that all the things which are written of me in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the Psalms, must be accomplished. ⁴⁵ Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the scriptures;

³⁴ Having, therefore, seen this, I testify that he is the Son of God.

⁴⁵ Philip meets Nathanael, and says to him, We have found the person described by Moses in the law, and by the prophets, Jesus, the son of Joseph, of Nazareth. ⁴⁶ Nathanael says to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip answered, Come and see. ⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said, concerning him, Behold an Israelite, indeed, in whom is no guile. ⁴⁸ Nathanael said to him, Whence do you know me? Jesus answered, I saw you when you were under the fig tree, before Philip called you. ⁴⁹ Nathanael replying, said to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.

⁴⁹ Nathanael replying, said to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel. ⁵⁰ Jesus answered him, saying, Because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree, you believe! ⁵¹ He added, Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending from the Son of Man, and descending to him.

⁵¹ He added, Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending from the Son of Man, and descending to him.

⁵ His mother said to the servants, Do whatever he shall bid you.

¹⁸ Therefore, the Jews answered, and said to him, By what miracle do you show us your title to do these things? ¹⁹ Jesus answering, said to them, Destroy this temple, and I will rear it again in three days.

¹⁹ Jesus answering, said to them, Destroy this temple, and I will rear it again in three days. ²⁰ The Jews replied, Forty and six years was this temple in building; and you would rear it in three days? ²¹ (But, by the temple, he meant his body.)

²⁴ But Jesus did not trust himself with them, because he knew them all. ²⁵ He needed not to receive from others a character of any man, for he knew what was in man.

³ Jesus answering, said to him, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a man be born again, he can not discern the Reign of God.

⁵ Jesus answered, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a man be born of water and Spirit, he can not enter the kingdom of God.

¹¹ Most assuredly, I say to you, we speak what we know, and testify what we have seen; yet you receive not our testimony.

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

¹⁸ For this reason the Jews were the more intent to kill him; because he had not only broken the Sabbath, but, by calling God his real Father, had equaled himself to God.

¹⁸ For this reason the Jews were the more intent to kill him; because he had not only broken the Sabbath, but, by calling God his real Father, had equaled himself to God. ¹⁹ Then Jesus addressed them, saying, Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but as he sees the Father do: for what things soever he does, such does the Son, likewise.

¹⁹ Then Jesus addressed them, saying, Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but as he sees the Father do: for what things soever he does, such does the Son, likewise. ²⁰ For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all that he himself does: nay, and will show him greater works than these, which will astonish you. ²¹ For as the Father raises and quickens the dead, the Son also quickens whom he will: ²² for the Father judges no person, having committed the power of judging entirely to the Son, ²³ that all might honor the Son; as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son, honors not the Father, who sent him. ²⁴ Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears my doctrine, and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; and shall not suffer condemnation, having passed from death to life. ²⁵ Most assuredly, I say to you, the time comes; or, rather, is come, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and hearing, they shall live.

³⁰ I can do nothing of myself; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not to please myself, but to please him who sent me.

⁷ Philip answered, Two hundred denarii would not purchase bread enough to afford every one a morsel.

²³ (other boats, however, arrived from Tiberias, nigh the place where they had eat, after the Lord had given thanks;)

²⁶ Jesus answered, Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw miracles, but because you eat of the loaves, and were satisfied.

³² Jesus then said to them, Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread of heaven: but my Father gives you the true bread of heaven:

³⁸ For I descended from heaven to do, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me. ³⁹ Now, this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose none of all he has given me, but raise the whole again at the last day.

⁴³ Jesus answered, Murmur not amongst yourselves:

⁴⁷ Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes on me has eternal life. ⁴⁸ I am the bread of life. ⁴⁹ Your fathers eat the manna in the desert, and died. ⁵⁰ Behold the bread which descended from heaven, that whosoever eats of it may not die. ⁵¹ I am the living bread, which descended from heaven. Whosoever eats of this bread, shall live forever; and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, which I give for the life of the world. ⁵² The Jews then debated among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? ⁵³ Jesus, therefore, said to them, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink his blood, you have not life in you.

⁵³ Jesus, therefore, said to them, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink his blood, you have not life in you. ⁵⁴ He that eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, has eternal life; and I will raise him again at the last day: ⁵⁵ for my flesh is truly meat, and my blood is truly drink. ⁵⁶ He who eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, abides in me, and I abide in him. ⁵⁷ As the Father lives, who sent me; and I live by the Father; even so he, who feeds on me, shall live by me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread which descended from heaven. It is not like what your fathers eat, for they died: he that eats this bread, shall live for ever.

⁷⁰ Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve? yet one of you is a spy.

⁷⁰ Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve? yet one of you is a spy. ⁷¹ He meant Judas Iscariot, son of Simon; for it was he who was to betray him, though he was one of the twelve.

⁷¹ He meant Judas Iscariot, son of Simon; for it was he who was to betray him, though he was one of the twelve.

²⁸ Jesus, who was then teaching in the temple, cried, Do you know both who, and whence I am? I came not of myself. But he is true, who sent me, whom you know not. ²⁹ As for me, I know him, because I came from him, and am commissioned by him. ³⁰ Then they sought to apprehend him, but none laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

³⁰ Then they sought to apprehend him, but none laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

³⁷ On the last, and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.

⁴⁰ Many of the people having heard what was spoken, said, This is certainly the prophet.

² Early in the morning he returned to the temple, and all the people having come to him, he sat down and taught them.

¹² Again Jesus addressed the people, saying, I am the light of the world. He who follows me, shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

²⁰ These things he spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple, and no person seized him, his hour not being yet come.

⁵⁸ Jesus answered, Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am. ⁵⁹ Then they took up stones to cast at him; but Jesus concealed himself, and went out of the temple.

²³ it being in winter; as Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's portico, ²⁴ the Jews surrounding him, said to him, How long will you keep us in suspense? If you be the Messiah, tell us plainly.

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

³¹ Then the Jews again took up stones to stone him. ³² Jesus said to them, Many good works I have shown you from my Father; for which of these works do you stone me? ³³ The Jews answered, For a good work we do not stone you, but for blasphemy; because you, being a man, make yourself God.

³⁶ do you charge him with blasphemy whom the Father has consecrated his Apostle to the world, for calling himself his Son?

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

²⁸ Having said this, she went and called Mary, her sister, aside, saying, The Teacher is come, and calls for you.

⁴⁷ Then the chief priests and the Pharisees assembled the Sanhedrim, and said, What are we doing? for this man works many miracles.

⁵³ From that day, therefore, they concerted how they might destroy him. ⁵⁴ For that reason, Jesus appeared no longer publicly among the Jews, but retired to the country, near the desert, to a city called Ephraim; and continued there with his disciples. ⁵⁵ Meantime, the Jewish passover approached, and many went to Jerusalem from the country, before the passover, to purify themselves. ⁵⁶ These inquired after Jesus, and said, one to another, as they stood in the temple, What do you think? Will he not come to the festival? ⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had issued an order, that whosoever knew where he was, he should make it known, that they might apprehend him.

¹ Six days before the passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom he had raised from the dead. ² There they made him a supper, and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of those who were at table with him. ³ Then Mary, taking a pound of the balsam of spikenard, which was very valuable, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped them with her hair, so that the house was filled with the odor of the balsam. ⁴ On which, one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who was to betray him, said,

⁴ On which, one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who was to betray him, said, ⁵ Why was not this balsam sold for three hundred denarii, which might have been given to the poor?

⁵ Why was not this balsam sold for three hundred denarii, which might have been given to the poor?

⁵ Why was not this balsam sold for three hundred denarii, which might have been given to the poor? ⁶ This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the purse, and carried what was put in it.

⁶ This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the purse, and carried what was put in it. ⁷ Then Jesus said, Let her alone. She has reserved this to embalm me, against the day of my burial.

⁷ Then Jesus said, Let her alone. She has reserved this to embalm me, against the day of my burial. ⁸ For you will always have the poor among you; but me you will not always have.

¹⁹ The Pharisees, therefore, said among themselves, Are you not sensible that you have no influence? Behold the world is gone after him.

²³ Jesus answered them, saying, The time is come, when the Son of Man must be glorified.

²⁷ Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour? But I came on purpose for this hour.

¹ Jesus having perceived, before the feast of the passover, that his time to remove out of this world to his Father, was come; and having loved his own, who were in the world, he loved them to the last.

¹ Jesus having perceived, before the feast of the passover, that his time to remove out of this world to his Father, was come; and having loved his own, who were in the world, he loved them to the last. ² Now while they were at the supper, (the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,)

² Now while they were at the supper, (the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,)

¹³ You call me the Teacher and the Master; and you say right; for so I am.

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

²¹ After uttering these words, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and declared, saying, Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.

²¹ After uttering these words, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and declared, saying, Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray me. ²² Then the disciples looked one upon another, doubting of whom he spoke.

²² Then the disciples looked one upon another, doubting of whom he spoke. ²³ Now one of his disciples, one whom Jesus loved, was lying close to his breast: ²⁴ Simon Peter, therefore, made a sign to him, to inquire whom he meant. ²⁵ He, then, reclining on Jesus' bosom, said to him, Master, who is it? ²⁶ Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give this morsel, after I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

²⁶ Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give this morsel, after I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

²⁹ Some imagined, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had signified to him to buy necessaries for the festival; or, to give something to the poor. ³⁰ When Judas had taken the morsel, he immediately went out: and it was night.

³³ My children, I have now but a little time to be with you. You will seek me, and what I said to the Jews, Whither I go, you can not come; I say at present to you.

³⁶ Simon Peter said to him, Master, whither are you going? Jesus answered, Whither I am going, you can not follow me now; but afterward you shall follow me. ³⁷ Peter replied, Master, why can not I follow you presently? I will lay down my life for your sake!

³⁷ Peter replied, Master, why can not I follow you presently? I will lay down my life for your sake! ³⁸ Jesus answered him, Will you lay down your life for my sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the cock shall not crow, till you have disowned me thrice.

³⁸ Jesus answered him, Will you lay down your life for my sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the cock shall not crow, till you have disowned me thrice.

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

¹ These things I tell you, that you may not be discouraged.

⁴ Of these things I warn you now, that when the time shall come, you may remember that I mentioned them to you. I did not, indeed, mention them at the beginning, because I was with you myself. ⁵ And now I go away to him who sent me; yet none of you ask me, Whither do you go?

²⁸ From the presence of the Father I cam into the world. Again, I leave the world, and return to the Father.

³² Behold, the time comes, or rather is come, when you shall disperse, every one to his own, and shall leave me alone; yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

¹ When Jesus had ended this discourse, he said, lifting up his eyes to heaven, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee;

¹¹ I continue no longer in the world; but these continue in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, preserve them in thy name, whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

²⁸ After this, Jesus, (knowing that all was now accomplished,) that the scripture might be fulfilled, said, I thirst.

³² Accordingly, the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first and of the other, who were crucified with him. ³³ But when they came to Jesus, and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. ³⁴ But one of the soldiers with a spear, pierced his side, whence blood and water immediately issued. ³⁵ He was an eye-witness, who attests this, and his testimony deserves credit: nay, he is conscious that he speaks truth, that you may believe. ³⁶ For these things happened that the scripture might be verified, "None of his bones shall be broken."

³⁶ For these things happened that the scripture might be verified, "None of his bones shall be broken." ³⁷ Again, the scripture elsewhere says, "They shall look on him whom they have pierced."

³⁷ Again, the scripture elsewhere says, "They shall look on him whom they have pierced." ³⁸ After this, Joseph, the Arimathean, who was a disciple of Jesus, but a concealed disciple for fear of the Jews, asked permission of Pilate to take away the body of Jesus. ³⁹ Nicodemus also, who had formerly repaired to Jesus by night, came, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, weighing about a hundred pounds. ⁴⁰ These men took the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen rollers, with the spices, which is the Jewish manner of embalming. ⁴¹ Now, in the place where he was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, wherein no one had ever yet been laid. ⁴² There they deposited Jesus, on account of the Jewish preparation, the tomb being near.

¹⁶ Jesus said to her, Mary. She, turning, said to him, Rabboni; that is, Teacher.

¹ Afterward, Jesus again appeared to the disciples, at the sea of Tiberias; and in this manner he appeared.

¹⁵ When they had dined, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me more than these? He answered, Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.

¹⁷ A third time he said, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? Peter, grieved at his asking this question a third time, answered, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus replied, Feed my sheep. ¹⁸ Most assuredly, I say to you, in your youth you girt yourself, and went whither you would; but in your old age, you shall stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you whither you would not.

⁹ And, having said these things, while they beheld, he was lifted up, and a cloud received him out of their sight. ¹⁰ And while they were steadfastly looking up to heaven, as he ascended, behold two men in white raiment stood near them; ¹¹ who also said, Galileans, why do you stand gazing up to heaven? This Jesus, who is taken up from you into heaven, shall also come in the same manner as you have seen him going to heaven.

¹³ And when they were come into the city, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James, son of Alpheus, and Simon, the Zealot, and Judas, brother of James.

¹⁶ Brethren, it was necessary this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit formerly spoke, by the mouth of David, with respect to Judas, who became the guide of those that apprehended Jesus:

¹⁶ Brethren, it was necessary this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit formerly spoke, by the mouth of David, with respect to Judas, who became the guide of those that apprehended Jesus: ¹⁷ (for he was numbered with us, and had obtained a part of this ministry:) ¹⁸ this man, therefore, purchased a field with the reward of iniquity, and falling down on his face, he burst asunder in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out: ¹⁹ and it was known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that field is called, in their language, Aceldama, that is, The Field of Blood. ²⁰ For it is written in the book of Psalms, "Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell in it": and, "Let another take his office."

²⁵ that he may take part of the ministry and apostleship, from which Judas fell by transgression, that he might goes to his own place.

⁷ And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another, Behold! are not all these that speak, Galileans?

²³ him you have apprehended, being given up by the declared counsel and foreknowledge of God, and by the hands of sinners have crucified and slain:

²¹ whom, indeed, heaven must retain till the time of the accomplishment of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets, from the beginning of time.

⁵ And the next day their rulers, elders, and scribes, gathered together at Jerusalem: ⁶ both Annas, the high priest, and Caiaphas; also John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the high priest's kindred.

²⁵ who didst say by the mouth of thy servant David, "Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? ²⁶ The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers combined together against the Lord, and against his anointed." ²⁷ For of a truth, against thy holy Son Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the heathen, and the people of Israel,

²⁷ For of a truth, against thy holy Son Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the heathen, and the people of Israel, ²⁸ have combined to do what thy hand and thy counsel marked out before to be done.

¹¹ Then they suborned men to say, We heard him speak reproachful words against Moses, and against God. ¹² And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and setting upon him, they dragged him away with them, and brought him to the Sanhedrim. ¹³ And they set up false witnesses, who said, This man is incessantly speaking against this holy place, and the law:

¹³ And they set up false witnesses, who said, This man is incessantly speaking against this holy place, and the law: ¹⁴ for we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change its customs, which Moses delivered to us.

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

⁵² Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? yes, they slew those who spoke before, of the coming of that Righteous One, of whom you have now become the betrayers and murderers.

³² Now the passage of scripture which he was reading, was this, "He was brought to the slaughter, as a sheep; and as a lamb before its shearer, is dumb; so he opened not his mouth.

³⁶ And there was at Joppa, a certain female disciple, named Tabitha, who, by interpretation, is called Dorcas; and she was full of good works, and alm-deeds, which she did.

²⁵ Now, as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and prostrating himself at his feet, made obeisance. ²⁶ But Peter raised him up, saying, Arise; I also am a man.

³⁸ concerning Jesus of Nazareth; how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit, and with power; who went about doing good, and healing all who were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.

²⁷ for the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and their rulers, not knowing him, nor the sayings of the prophets, which are read every Sabbath day; have fulfilled them in condemning him. ²⁸ And though they could find no cause of death in him; yet they requested Pilate that he might be executed. ²⁹ And when they had accomplished all things that were written concerning him; taking him down from the cross, they laid him in a tomb.

¹³ And the priest of Jupiter, whose image was before the city, brought oxen, with garlands, to the gates; and would, with the multitude, have offered sacrifice to them. ¹⁴ But the Apostles, Barnabas and Paul, hearing of it, rent their mantles, and ran in among the multitude, crying out,

²³ And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely.

²⁵ But at midnight, Paul and Silas having prayed, sung a hymn to God: and the prisoners heard them.

⁸ And there were many lamps in the upper room, in which we were assembled;

² And Ananias, the high priest, commanded those that stood by him, to strike him on the mouth.

¹ And, after five days, the high, Ananias, came down, with the elders, and a certain orator, named Tertullus: and they made their appearance before the governor, against Paul. ² And he being called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, As we enjoy great peace by your means, and as illustrious deeds are happily done to this nation, by your prudent administration; ³ we accept it always, and in all places, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness. ⁴ But, that I may not further trouble you, I beseech you to hear us briefly, with your usual candor. ⁵ for we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world; and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes: ⁶ who has attempted to profane the temple; and whom we apprehended, and would have judged according to our law; ⁷ but Lysias, the commander, coming upon us with a great force, took him away out of our hands, ⁸ commanding his accusers to come to you; by which means, you may yourself, on examination, know the certainty of all these things, of which we accuse him. ⁹ And the Jews also gave their assent, saying, that these things were so. ¹⁰ Then Paul, after the governor had made a signal to him to speak, answered, Knowing that you, O Felix! have been for several years a judge to this nation, I answer for myself with the more cheerfulness; ¹¹ since you may know that it is no more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem; ¹² and they neither found me disputing with any man in the temple, nor making any insurrection among the people, either in the synagogues, or in the city: ¹³ nor can they produce any proof of the things concerning which they now accuse me.

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it says to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and that all the world may be liable to punishment before God.

¹⁸ For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, there dwells no good thing: for to desire what is good, is easy for me; but to do it, I find difficult. ¹⁹ For the good which I desire, that I do not: but the evil which I desire not, that I do. ²⁰ Now, if I do that which I do not desire, it is no longer I who do it; but sin, which dwells in me. ²¹ I find, then, that it is a law to me, when desirous to do good, that evil is near me. ²² For I take pleasure in the law of God, as to the inner man: ²³ but I perceive another law, in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and making me a captive to the law of sin, which is in my members. ²⁴ Wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from this body of death? ²⁵ I thank God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! Wherefore, then, indeed, I myself serve, with my mind, the law of God; but with the flesh, the law of sin.

¹⁵ For you have not received the spirit of bondage, again, to fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father. ¹⁶ Also this spirit bears witness, together with our spirit, that we are children of God.

⁶ He who observes the day, observe it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day to the Lord, does not observe it: he who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks.

⁷ Cleanse out, therefore, the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, seeing you are without leaven; for even our passover, Christ is sacrificed for us. ⁸ Therefore, let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness: but with unleavened sincerity and truth.

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

¹⁰ Neither murmur you, as even some of the murmured, and perished by the destroyer.

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

¹⁶ The cup of blessing, which we bless; is it not the joint participation of the blood of Christ? The loaf, which we break; is it not the joint participation of the body of Christ?

¹⁶ The cup of blessing, which we bless; is it not the joint participation of the blood of Christ? The loaf, which we break; is it not the joint participation of the body of Christ? ¹⁷ Because there is one loaf, we, the many, are one body: for we all participate of that one loaf.

²³ For I received from the Lord what, also, I delivered to you; that the Lord Jesus, in the night in which we was betrayed, took a loaf; ²⁴ and, having given thanks, he broke it; and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me. ²⁵ In like manner, also, the cup, after he had supped; saying, This cup is the new institution in my blood: do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.

²⁵ In like manner, also, the cup, after he had supped; saying, This cup is the new institution in my blood: do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me. ²⁶ For as often as you eat this loaf, and drink this cup, you openly publish the death of the Lord, until he come. ²⁷ So, then, whosoever shall eat this loaf, and drink this cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. ²⁸ But let a man examine himself, and then let him eat of the loaf, and drink of the cup. ²⁹ For he who eats and drinks unworthily, eats and drinks judgment to himself, not distinguishing the body of the Lord.

¹⁵ What, then, is to be done? I will pray with the Spirit, but I will pray also with understanding: I will sing with the Spirit; but I will sing also with understanding.

⁴ and that he was buried; and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures; ⁵ and that he was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve. ⁶ After that, he was seen by above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain to this present time, but some are fallen asleep.

¹ For we know that if the earthy house of this our tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, everlasting, in the heavens.

¹⁰ For godly sorrow produces a reformation to salvation, never to be repented of; but the sorrow of the world produces death.

¹ Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the charity of God, which is given by the congregations of Macedonia; ² that in a great trial of affliction, the abundance of their joy, and their extreme poverty, superabounded to the riches of their liberality: ³ that to their power, (I bear witness,) yes, beyond their power, they were willing of themselves; with much entreaty

¹² For if there be a willing mind, according to what a person has, he is accepted; and not according to what he has not.

⁸ And God is able to make every blessing abound to you; that in everything, always having all sufficiency, you may abound in every good work.

¹³ They, through the proof of the ministry, glorifying God for you avowed subjection to the gospel of Christ; and for the liberality of your contribution for them, and for all; ¹⁴ and for their prayer for you, who ardently love you, on account of the exceeding favor of God bestowed on you.

¹⁸ For not he who commends himself is approved; but whom the Lord commends.

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

⁴ But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

⁶ And because you are sons, God has sent forth the spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

¹⁰ For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, for which God before prepared us, that we should walk in them.

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 who has need.

¹⁸ And we not drunk with wine, by which comes dissoluteness; 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 at all times for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father.

¹⁸ With all supplication and deprecation, pray at all seasons in spirit; and for this very purpose, watch with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints: ¹⁹ especially for me, that eloquence may be given me in opening my mouth with boldness, to make known the secret of the gospel;

²⁸ and not terrified in anything by your adversaries; which is to them a demonstration of perdition; but to you of salvation, and that from God.

⁸ and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross.

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

¹⁴ Do all things without murmurings and disputings;

¹⁰ that you may walk worthy of the Lord to all pleasing, bringing forth fruit by every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; and with all wisdom teach and admonish each other by psalms and hymns, and spiritual songs; singing with gratitude in your hearts to the Lord.

⁶ Therefore, let us not sleep, even as others; but let us watch and be sober. ⁷ For they who sleep, sleep in the night; and they who get drunk, get drunk in the night. ⁸ But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

⁷ and to you, the afflicted, (because our testimony was believed by you,) rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with his mighty angels, in flaming fire, ⁸ inflicting a just retribution on those who know not God, and who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ; ⁹ who shall suffer a just punishment-an everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power- ¹⁰ in that day when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired by all the believers.

¹⁷ comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.

¹⁷ The salutation of Paul, with my own hand, which is the token in every epistle: thus I write.

¹¹ according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I am entrusted.

¹⁰ eminent for good works-that she has brought up children, that she has lodged strangers, that she has washed the saints' feet, that she has relieved the afflicted, that she has diligently followed every good work.

¹⁰ For the love of money is the root of all evil, which some, eagerly desiring, have wholly erred from the faith, and pierced themselves all around with many sorrows.

¹⁵ which appearance, at the proper season, the blessed and only Potentate, the King of king, and Lord of lords will exhibit;

¹⁸ to do good, to be rich in lovely works, ready to distribute, communicative,

¹² if we suffer patiently, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us. ¹³ Though we be unfaithful, he abides faithful; he can not deny himself.

¹³ Though we be unfaithful, he abides faithful; he can not deny himself.

¹⁹ Nevertheless, the foundation of God stands firm, having this inscription, The Lord has made known them who are his:- and, Let every one who names the name of Christ, depart from iniquity.

²¹ If, then, a man will cleanse himself well from these, he will be a vessel appointed to honor, sanctified, and very profitable for the master's use, prepared for every good work.

¹⁷ that the man of God may be perfect-completely fitted for every good work.

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

² in hope of eternal life, which God, who can not lie, promised before the times of the ages-

⁷ In all things make yourself a pattern of good works: in teaching, show incorruptness, gravity,

¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

⁸ This doctrine is true: and concerning these, I charge you to affirm strongly, that those who have believed in God, be studious to stand foremost in good works. These are things that are honorable and profitable to men.

¹⁴ And let ours also learn to stand foremost in good works, for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.

⁷ For we have much joy and consolation in your love; because the souls of the saints are refreshed by you, brother.

³ who, being in effulgence of his glory, and an exact representation of his character, and controlling all things by his own powerful word, after he had, by himself, made expiation for our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high;

¹³ And there is no creature concealed from his sight, for all things are naked and open to the eyes of him, to whom we must give an account.

⁷ He, (who, in the days of his flesh, having, with loud cries, and with tears, offered up prayers and supplications to him who was able to save him from death, and was delivered from his fear,)

⁷ He, (who, in the days of his flesh, having, with loud cries, and with tears, offered up prayers and supplications to him who was able to save him from death, and was delivered from his fear,) ⁸ though being a Son, learned obedience by the things which he suffered; ⁹ and being made perfect, became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey him;

¹⁸ that, by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled away to lay hold on the hope set before us;

¹ Now of the things which we have spoken, this is the sum: We have such a High Priest, who has taken his seat at the right hand of the Majesty in the heavens-

¹⁰ Now this is the institution which I will make with the house of Israel, after these days, says the Lord. I will put my laws into their mind, and inscribe them on their hearts, 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 By saying, "a new institution," he has made the former old: now, that which is decaying and growing old, is ready to vanish away.

¹¹ But Christ being come-a High Priest of the good things to come-has, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, (that is to say, not of this building,)

¹⁵ And, for this reason, he is mediator of the new institution, that, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first institution, those who had been called might receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. ¹⁶ Now, where there is such an institution, the death of the instituted sacrifice must necessarily intervene: ¹⁷ for since the institution is ratified over the dead, it has no force while the instituted sacrifice lives. ¹⁸ Hence, neither was the first introduced without blood; ¹⁹ for "when Moses had spoken every precept in the law to all the people, taking the blood of calves, and of goats, with water and scarlet wool, and hyssop, he sprinkled both the book itself, and the people:" ²⁰ saying, "This is the blood of the institution, which God has enjoined on you." ²¹ Moreover, he in like manner sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. ²² And almost all thing, according to the law, were cleansed with blood; and without the shedding of blood, there is no remission. ²³ It was necessary, then, indeed, that the representations of the things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves, with better sacrifices than these. ²⁴ Therefore, Christ has not entered into the holy places made with hands, the antitypes of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God, on our account.

²⁴ And let us attentively consider one another, to excite to love and good works;

² looking to Jesus, the leader and perfecter of the faith; who, for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. ³ Consider him who, from sinners, endured such opposition against himself, lest, becoming discouraged in your minds, you grow weary;

²⁰ Now may the God of peace, who brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting institution, ²¹ make you fit for every good work, to do his will, producing in you what is acceptable in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom we the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

²¹ make you fit for every good work, to do his will, producing in you what is acceptable in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom we the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

¹⁴ What is the advantage, my brethren, if any one say he have faith, but have not works? Can faith save him? ¹⁵ For if a brother or a sister be naked, or destitute of daily food, ¹⁶ and any one of you say to him, Depart in peace: be warmed, and be filled; yet give him none of the things needful for the body, what is the advantage?

¹³ Does any one among you suffer evil? let him pray: is any one cheerful? let him sing psalms.

¹⁴ having eyes full of the adulteress, incessantly sinning, alluring unstable souls; having a heart exercised with insatiable desires; an accursed progeny: ¹⁵ having forsaken the right path, they have wandered, following in the way of Balaam, the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of iniquity,

¹⁶ By this we have known the love of Christ, because he laid down his life for us; therefore we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. ¹⁷ Whoever, therefore, has the goods of this world, and sees his brother in need, and yet shuts up his compassion from him, how abides the love of God in him? ¹⁸ My little children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue; but in deed, and in truth. ¹⁹ For by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

¹¹ Alas for them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and have run evidently in the error of Balaam's hire, and have perished in the rebellion of Korah.

¹⁶ These are murmurers, and complainers, who walk according to their own lusts; and their mouths speak great swelling words. They admire persons for the sake of gain.

⁷ Behold, he is coming in the clouds; and every eye shall see him, even they who pierced him: and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn because of him. Yes: so let it be.

² Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, which are ready to die: for I have not found your works filled up in the sight of God. ³ Remember, therefore, how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and reform: therefore, unless you are watchful, I will come upon you as thief, and you shall not know what hour I will come upon you.

¹⁰ Because you have kept the word of my patience, I will also keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try the inhabitants of the earth.

²⁰ Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any one hear my voice, and open the door, I will enter into his house, and will sup with him, and he with me.

¹⁰ the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits upon the throne, who lives for ever and ever; and they cast down their crowns before the throne, saying,

⁸ And when he received the scroll, the four living creatures, and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one harps, and golden vials full of perfumes, which are the prayers of the saints. ⁹ And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the scroll, and to open the seals of it; for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation;

⁹ And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the scroll, and to open the seals of it; for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation; ¹⁰ and hast made us, to our God, kings and priests: and we shall reign on earth.

¹⁴ And the four living creatures said, Amen: and the elders fell down and worshiped him.

⁹ After this, I saw, and beheld a great multitude, which no one could number, out of every nation, and tribe, and people, and language, 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 messengers stood round about the throne, and about the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell down on their faces, before the throne, 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 strength, be to our God for ever and ever: Amen. ¹³ And one of the elders answered, saying to me, As for those who are clothed with white apparel, who are they, and whence do they come? ¹⁴ And I said to him, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are they who have come out of much tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb: ¹⁵ therefore, they are before the throne of God, and serve him, day and night, in his temple; and he who sits upon the throne, pitches his tabernacle over them. ¹⁶ They shall hunger no more, neither shall they thirst any more; nor shall the sun fall upon them, nor any heat: ¹⁷ for the Lamb, who is in the midst of the throne, shall feed them, and he shall lead them to fountains of living water; and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.

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