²⁴ And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon and from Cuthah and from Avva and from Hamath and Sepharvaim and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the sons of Israel. And they possessed Samaria and dwelt in the cities of it.
²⁵ And so it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they were not afraid of Jehovah. Therefore Jehovah sent lions among them, which killed some of them. ²⁶ Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which you have carried away and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them, and behold, they kill them, because they do not know the law of the god of the land.
²⁷ Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry there one of the priests whom you* brought from there and let them go and dwell there. And let him teach them the law of the god of the land. ²⁸ So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel and taught them how they should fear Jehovah.
²⁹ However every nation made gods of their own and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they dwelt. ³⁰ And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth and the men of Cuth made Nergal and the men of Hamath made Ashima, ³¹ and the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak. And the Sepharvites burnt their sons in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
³² So they were afraid of Jehovah and made for them priests of the high places from among themselves, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places. ³³ They were afraid of Jehovah and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations from among whom they had been carried away. ³⁴ To this day they do after the former manner. They do not fear Jehovah, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law or after the commandment which Jehovah commanded the sons of Jacob, whom he named Israel, ³⁵ with whom Jehovah had made a covenant and charged them, saying, You* will not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them. ³⁶ But Jehovah, who brought you* up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, him you* will fear and to him you* will bow yourselves and to him you* will sacrifice.
³⁷ And the statutes and the ordinances and the law and the commandment, which he wrote for you*, you* will observe to do forever. And you* will not fear other gods. ³⁸ And the covenant that I have made with you*. You* will not forget. Neither will you* fear other gods, ³⁹ but you* will fear Jehovah your* God and he will deliver you* out of the hand of all your* enemies.
⁴⁰ However they did not listen, but they did after their former manner. ⁴¹ So these nations were afraid of Jehovah and served their graven images, their sons likewise and their son's sons, as did their fathers, so do they to this day.

¹ Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the sons of the captivity were building a temple to Jehovah, the God of Israel, ² then they drew near to Zerubbabel and to the heads of fathers and said to them, Let us build with you*, for we seek your* God, as you* do and we sacrifice to him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria who brought us up here.
³ But Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the rest of the heads of fathers of Israel, said to them, You* have nothing to do with us in building a house to our God, but we ourselves together will build to Jehovah, the God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia has commanded us.
⁴ Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah and troubled them in building, ⁵ and hired counselors against them to frustrate their purpose all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia. ⁶ And in the reign of Ahasuerus, in the beginning of his reign, they wrote an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.
⁷ And in the days of Artaxerxes, Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel and the rest of his companions, wrote to Artaxerxes king of Persia. And the writing of the letter was written in the Syrian character and set forth in the Syrian tongue. ⁸ Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king in this way.
⁹ Then wrote Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe and the rest of their companions, the Dinaites and the Apharsathchites, the men of Erech, the Babylonians, the men of Susa, (that is the Elamites), ¹⁰ and the rest of the nations whom the great and noble Osnappar brought over and set in the city of Samaria and in the rest beyond the River and so forth.
¹¹ This is a copy of the letter that they sent to Artaxerxes the king:
Your servants the men beyond the River and so forth. ¹² Be it known to the king, that the Jews who came up from you have come to us to Jerusalem. They are building the rebellious and the evil city and have finished the walls and repaired the foundations. ¹³ Be it known now to the king, that, if this city be built and the walls finished, they will not pay tribute, custom, or toll and in the end it will be hurtful to the kings.
¹⁴ Now because we eat the salt of the palace and it is not fitting for us to see the king's dishonor, therefore we have sent and certified to the king, ¹⁵ that search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers. So you will find in the book of the records and know that this city is a rebellious city and hurtful to kings and provinces. And that they have made sedition within the same of old time, for which cause this city was laid waste.
¹⁶ We certify to the king that, if this city be built and the walls finished, by this means you will have no portion beyond the River.
¹⁷ Then the king sent an answer to Rehum the chancellor and to Shimshai the scribe and to the rest of their companions who dwell in Samaria and in the rest beyond the River:
Peace and so forth. ¹⁸ The letter which you* sent to us has been plainly read before me. ¹⁹ And I decreed and search has been made. And it is found that this city of old time has made insurrection against kings and that rebellion and sedition have been made in it. ²⁰ There have also been mighty kings over Jerusalem who have ruled over all the country beyond the River and tribute, custom and toll, was paid to them.
²¹ You* make now a decree to cause these men to cease and that this city not be built until a decree will be made by me. ²² And take heed that you* are not slack in this matter. Why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings?
²³ Then when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter was read before Rehum and Shimshai the scribe and their companions, they went in haste to Jerusalem to the Jews and made them cease by force and power. ²⁴ Then the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem ceased and it ceased until the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.

¹ But it happened that, when Sanballat heard that we were building the wall, he was angry and took great indignation and mocked the Jews. ² And he spoke before his brothers and the army of Samaria and said, What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they fortify themselves? Will they sacrifice? Will they finish in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, seeing they are burnt?

⁵ Jesus sent forth these twelve apostles and commanded them, saying, Do not go into any road of the Gentiles and do not enter into any city of the Samaritans;

⁵² and sent messengers before his face, and they traveled and entered into a village of the Samaritans, so-then to prepare for him. ⁵³ But they did not accept him, because his face was established to be traveling to Jerusalem.
⁵⁴ Now when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, do you will that we should tell the fire to come down from heaven and consume them as Elisha also did?
⁵⁵ But he turned and rebuked them, and said, You do not know of what spirit you are. ⁵⁶ For the Son of man did not come to destroy the lives of men, but to save them.


And they traveled to a different village.

³³ But a certain traveling Samaritan came to him, and having seen him, had compassion.

¹⁶ and he fell upon his face beside his feet, giving-thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.
¹⁷ But Jesus answered and said, Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? ¹⁸ Was there no one found, except this immigrant, who returned to give glory to God? ¹⁹ And he said to him, Stand and travel. Your faith has saved you.

²⁷ And his disciples came upon this, and marveled that he was speaking with a woman; nevertheless, no one said, What are you seeking? Or, Why are you speaking with her?

⁴⁸ Therefore the Jews answered and said to him, Do we not say well that you are a Samaritan and you have a demon?

⁸ But you will be receiving power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be witnesses to me, both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the outermost parts of the earth.

¹⁸ Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh and his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel.
¹⁹ Also his prayer and how God was entreated by him and all his sin and his trespass and the places in which he built high places and set up the Asherim.

¹⁷ Jehovah, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart, you will cause your ear to hear,

⁴ There is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, the holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.

³ Therefore with joy you* will draw water out of the wells of salvation.

⁶ Then the lame man will leap as a male-deer and the tongue of the mute will sing. For waters in the wilderness will break out and streams in the desert.

¹⁷ The poor and needy seek water and there is none and their tongue fails for thirst. I, Jehovah, will answer them. I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. ¹⁸ I will open rivers on the bare heights and fountains in the midst of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water and the dry land springs of water.

⁶ I, Jehovah, have called you in righteousness and will hold your hand and will keep you and give you for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles,

²⁰ The beasts of the field will honor me, the jackals and the ostriches, because I give waters in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen,

³ For I will pour water upon him who is thirsty and streams upon the dry ground. I will pour my Spirit upon your seed and my blessing upon your offspring.

⁶ yes, he says, It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give you for a light to the Gentiles, that you may be my salvation to the end of the earth.
⁷ Jehovah says thus, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despises, to him whom the nation abhors, to a servant of rulers. Kings will see and arise, rulers and they will worship, because of Jehovah who is faithful, even the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.
⁸ Jehovah says thus, In an acceptable time I have heard you and in a day of salvation I have helped you. And I will preserve you and give you for a covenant of the people, to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages,

¹⁰ They will not hunger nor thirst, neither will the heat nor sun kill* them. For he who has mercy on them will lead them. He will guide them even by springs of water.

¹ Ho, everyone who thirsts, come you* to the waters. And he who has no money, come you*, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. ² Why do you* spend money for what is not bread and your* labor for what does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to me and eat you* what is good and let your* soul delight itself in fatness. ³ Incline your* ear and come to me. Hear and your* soul will live. And I will make an everlasting covenant with you*, even the faithful holy things of David.

⁶ Seek Jehovah while he may be found. Call you* upon him while he is near. ⁷ Let the wicked man forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts. And let him return to Jehovah and he will have mercy upon him and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
⁸ For my thoughts are not your* thoughts, nor are your* ways my ways, says Jehovah. ⁹ For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your* ways and my thoughts than your* thoughts.

¹³ For my people have committed two evils: They have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

¹ And he brought me back to the door of the house. And behold, waters went forth out from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the forefront of the house was toward the east. And the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.
² Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward and led me round by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks toward the east. And behold, waters ran out on the right side.
³ When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles. ⁴ Again he measured a thousand and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the loins. ⁵ Afterward he measured a thousand and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the waters have risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through. ⁶ And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen this? Then he brought me and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
⁷ Now when I had returned, behold, upon the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other. ⁸ Then he said to me, These waters go forth toward the eastern region and will go down into the Arabah. And they will go toward the sea, into the sea which were made to go forth and the waters will be healed. ⁹ And it will happen, that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, will live. And there will be a very great multitude of fish (for these waters have come there) and will be healed. And everything will live wherever the river comes.

¹ In that day there will be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.

⁵¹ I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if anyone eats from this bread, he will be living forever and also the bread which I will be giving is my flesh, which I will be giving on behalf of the life of the world.

³⁷ Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and let him drink. ³⁸ He who believes in me, like the Scripture has said, Rivers of living water will be flowing out of his belly. ³⁹ But he spoke this concerning the Spirit, which those who believed in him were about to receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

³⁶ That man answered and said, Who is he, Lord, in order that I should believe in him?
³⁷ Now Jesus said to him, You have both seen him and he who speaks with you is that man.
³⁸ But he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshiped him.

³ And they will be doing these things to you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

³ But this is everlasting life, in order that they should know you, the only true God, and Jesus the Christ, whom you sent.

¹¹ Now the Lord said to him, When you stand up, travel to the lane which is called Straight and seek one from Tarsus, Saul by name, in the house of Judas; for behold, he is praying;

³² Yet, he who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up on behalf of us all, how will he not also be granting to us all things together with him?

³⁰ But you are from him, in Christ Jesus, who has become to us wisdom and righteousness and holiness and redemption from God;

⁴ and all were drinking the same spiritual drink; for they were drinking from a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ.

¹⁵ But gratitude is to God for his indescribable gift.

⁸ For you are saved by the grace through the faith, and this thing, the gift of God, is not from you;

²⁰ Now we know that the Son of God has come and has given us perception, in order that we might know the true one and we are in the true one, that is, in his son, Jesus Christ. He is the true God and the everlasting life.

¹⁷ Because you say, I am rich and have enriched ourselves and have need of nothing, and do not know that you are the miserable and the pitiful and are poor and blind and naked. ¹⁸ I am counseling together with you to buy gold from me, having been refined out of fire, in order that you may be enriched, and in order that you should dress yourself with white garments and in order that the shame of your nakedness should not be manifested to all, and in order that you may anoint your eyes with eye-salve, in order that you may see.

¹⁷ because the Lamb, who is in the midst of the throne, is shepherding them and is guiding them to the springs of waters of life and God will be wiping-away every tear from their eyes.

⁶ And he said to me, I have become the Alpha and the Omega, I am the beginning and the end. I will be giving freely to the one who is thirsty out of the spring of the water of life.

¹ And he showed me a river of the clean water of life, bright like crystal, traveling out from the throne of God and of the Lamb, ² in the middle of its street. And the Tree of Life was on this side and on that side of the river, producing twelve fruits, giving its fruit every month and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

¹⁷ And the Spirit and the bride are saying, Come. And he who hears, let him say, Come. And he who is thirsty, let him come. He who wills, let him take the water of life freely.

⁴ Nicodemus says to him, How is a man able to be born, being elderly? He is not able to enter into his mother’s womb a second-time and to be born again, is he?

¹⁴ Now the physical man is not accepting the things from the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness to him, and he is not able to know them, because they are spiritually examined.

² For he grew up before him as a tender plant and as a root out of a dry ground. He has no form nor comeliness. And when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
³ He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And as him from whom men hide their face he was despised and we esteemed him not.

⁴² The queen of the south will be arisen with this generation in the judgment and will be condemning it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, more-than Solomon is here.

⁶ and Jacob’s well was there. Therefore, Jesus, being fatigued from his journey, was sitting thus upon the well. It was approximately the sixth hour.

⁵³ You are not greater than our father Abraham, who died, are you? And the prophets died; whom are you making yourself out to be?

³ For he has been deemed worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as the one who constructed the house has more honor than the house.

¹³ Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah, Behold, my servants will eat, but you* will be hungry. Behold, my servants will drink, but you* will be thirsty. Behold, my servants will rejoice, but you* will be put to shame. ¹⁴ Behold, my servants will sing for joy of heart, but you* will cry for sorrow of heart and will wail for vexation of spirit.

²⁴ And having shouted, he said, Father Abraham, show-mercy to me, and send Lazarus in order that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and may cool my tongue, because I am in anguish in this flame.

²⁷ Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will be giving to you; for God, the Father, has sealed this one.

⁴⁹ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.

⁴⁶ And these will be going away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into everlasting life.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down from heaven not like the manna your fathers ate and died; he who is eating this bread will be living forever.

¹⁰ The thief does not come, except that he may steal, and may sacrifice and may destroy you. I came in order that they may have life and may have it even-more.

²⁶ and everyone who is living and believes in me may never die–forever. Do you believe this?

¹⁶ And I will be requesting of the Father and he will be giving you another Helper, in order that he may abide with you forever, ¹⁷ the Spirit of the truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it does not view him, nor knows him, but you know him, because he is abiding with you and will be in you. ¹⁸ I will not be leaving you orphans. I am coming to you. ¹⁹ Still a little while and the world views me no more, but you view me, because I am living, you will also be living.

² just-as you gave him authority over all flesh, in order that to all whom you have given him, he will be giving everlasting life to them. ³ But this is everlasting life, in order that they should know you, the only true God, and Jesus the Christ, whom you sent.

²¹ in order that, just-as sin reigned in death, so also the favor might also reign through righteousness to everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

²³ For the compensations of sin is death, but the gift of God is everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

¹⁶ The Spirit himself is testifying together with our spirit, that we are children of God; ¹⁷ and if children, then heirs; indeed, heirs of God and joint heirs of Christ; if indeed we are suffering together with him, in order that we might also be glorified together with him.

²² who also sealed us and gave us the down-payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

¹³ in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the good-news of your salvation, in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, ¹⁴ which is a down-payment of our inheritance, to the redemption of the ownership of God to the praise of his glory.

³⁰ And do not make the Holy Spirit of God sorrowful, in whom you were sealed to the day of redemption.

²² Having purified your souls in the obedience to the truth through the Spirit toward non-pretended brotherly-love, intensely love^*\'b0 one another from a clean heart;

¹⁶ They will not be hungry anymore, nor thirsty anymore; nor should the heat of the sun fall upon them, nor any heat,

⁶ There are many who say, Who will show us good? Jehovah, lift you up the light of your countenance upon us.

²⁶ Jesus answered them and said, Assuredly, assuredly, I say to you, You are seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate from the loaves and were fed.

³⁴ Therefore they said to him, Lord, give this bread to us always.

⁵ For those who are according to the flesh are mindful of the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit are mindful of the things of the Spirit.

³ You ask and do not receive, because you ask evilly, in order that you may spend it in your sensual-delights.

⁴² And he led him toward Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, You are Simon, the Son of Jonah, you will be called Cephas, which is by translation, a Pebble.

⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and says concerning him, Behold, an Israelite in whom there truly is no treachery!
⁴⁸ Nathanael says to him, From where do you know me?
Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip summoned you, I saw you being under the fig tree.

²⁴ But Jesus himself was not entrusting himself to them, because he knew all men, \ulnone\nosupersub ²⁵ and because he had no need that anyone should testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.

¹⁸ for you had five husbands, and he whom you have now is not your husband. You have said this, a true thing.

¹⁷ He says to him the third-time, Simon, Son of Jonah, Do you ^{F} love me?
Peter was sorrowful because he said to him the third-time, Do you ^{F} love me like a friend? And he said to him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you like a friend.
Jesus says to him, Feed my sheep.

¹³ And there is no created thing unapparent in his sight, but all things are naked and have been laid-bare to his eyes to whom is our account.

²³ And I will be killing her children with death, and all the congregations will know that I am he who is searching the kidneys and hearts and I will be giving to you, each one according to your works.

³ But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night and said to him, Behold, you are but a dead man, over the woman whom you have taken; she is a man's wife.

² And Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her. And he took her and lay with her and humbled her.

⁷ And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it. And the men were grieved and they were furious, because he had done senselessness in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter, which thing ought not to be done.
⁸ And Hamor spoke with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longs for your* daughter. I beseech you*, give her to him as a wife.

³¹ And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with a prostitute?

²⁹ This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goes aside and is defiled,

¹⁰ Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You* are witnesses this day.

²⁰ Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so you* have dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, says Jehovah.

³² A wife who commits adultery, who takes strangers instead of her husband!

¹² and if a woman divorces her husband and should marry another, she is committing adultery.

³ Therefore consequently, if the husband is living, if she becomes joined to a different man, she will be divinely-called, an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, she is not an adulteress, even if she had become joined to a different man.

¹⁰ But I command to those who have married, (not I, but the Lord): the wife is not to be separated from her husband, ¹¹ (but even if she is separated, let her remain unmarried, or let her be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband is not to leave his wife.

⁴ Let marriage be honored among all and let the marriage-bed be undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will be judging.

²⁶ And he said to him, Did not my heart go with you when the man turned from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to receive money and to receive garments and olive-groves and vineyards and sheep and oxen and men-servants and maidservants?

¹² And one of his servants said, No, my lord, O king, but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel tells the King of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom.

¹¹ But the crowds were saying, This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.

¹⁶ Now fear took all and they were glorifying God, saying, A great prophet has arisen among us, and that God has visited his people.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he spoke in himself, saying, This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, that she is a sinner.

¹⁹ And he said to them, What things?
But they said to him, The things concerning Jesus from Nazareth, who became a prophet, a mighty man in works and word in front of God and all the people;

⁴⁸ Nathanael says to him, From where do you know me?
Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip summoned you, I saw you being under the fig tree.
⁴⁹ Nathanael answered and says to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.

²⁹ Come-here. Behold, a man who told me all things, as many things as I have done. This is not the Christ, is it?

¹⁴ Therefore, when the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they were saying, This truly is the prophet who is coming into the world.

⁴⁰ Therefore many out of the crowd, having heard the word, said, This is truly the prophet.

¹⁷ They say to the blind man again, What do you say concerning him, in that he opened your eyes?
Now he said, He is a prophet.

²⁴ But if all prophesy and some unbelieving or unskilled person comes in, he is reproved by all. He is judged by all. ²⁵ And thus, the secret things of his heart become apparent, and so, when he has fallen down upon his face, he will be worshiping God, reporting that God really is among you.

⁶ And Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. And the Canaanite was in the land then.
⁷ And Jehovah appeared to Abram and said, I will give this land to your seed. And there he built an altar to Jehovah, who appeared to him.

¹⁸ And Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Paddan-aram and encamped before the city. ¹⁹ And he bought the parcel of ground, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred lambs. ²⁰ And he erected an altar there and called it El-Elohe-Israel.

²⁹ And it will happen, when Jehovah your God will bring you into the land where you go to possess it, that you will set the blessing upon Mount Gerizim and the curse upon Mount Ebal.

⁵ But to the place which Jehovah your* God will choose out of all your* tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation you* will seek and there you will come. ⁶ And there you* will bring your* burnt offerings and your* sacrifices and your* tithes and the heave offering of your* hand and your* vows and your* free-will offerings and the first-offspring of your* herd and of your* flock. ⁷ And there you* will eat before Jehovah your* God and you* will rejoice in all that you* put your* hand to, you* and your* households, in which Jehovah your God has blessed you.
⁸ You* will not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatever is right in his own eyes. ⁹ For you* are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Jehovah your God gives you.
¹⁰ But when you* go over the Jordan and dwell in the land which Jehovah your* God causes you* to inherit and he gives you* rest from all your* enemies all around, so that you* dwell in safety, ¹¹ then it will happen that to the place which Jehovah your* God will choose to cause his name to dwell there, there you* will bring all that I command you*: your* burnt offerings and your* sacrifices, your* tithes and the heave offering of your* hand and all your* choice vows which you* vow to Jehovah.

¹² These will stand upon Mount Gerizim to bless the people, when you* have passed over the Jordan: Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Joseph and Benjamin.

³³ And all Israel and their elders and officers and their judges, stood on this side of the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, as well the traveler as the home born, half of them in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of Jehovah had commanded at the first, that they should bless the people of Israel.
³⁴ And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in the book of the law. ³⁵ There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel and the women and the little ones and the travelers who were among them.

⁶ And all the men of Shechem assembled themselves together and all the Beth-millo and went and made Abimelech king by the oak of the pillar that was in Shechem. ⁷ And when they told it to Jotham, he went and stood on the top of Mount Gerizim and lifted up his voice and cried out and said to them, Listen to me, you* men of Shechem, that God may listen to you*.

³ And Jehovah said to him, I have heard your prayer and your supplication, which you have made before me. I have made this house holy, which you have built, to put my name there until everlasting. And my eyes and my heart will be there perpetually.

²⁶ Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which you have carried away and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them, and behold, they kill them, because they do not know the law of the god of the land.
²⁷ Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry there one of the priests whom you* brought from there and let them go and dwell there. And let him teach them the law of the god of the land. ²⁸ So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel and taught them how they should fear Jehovah.
²⁹ However every nation made gods of their own and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they dwelt. ³⁰ And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth and the men of Cuth made Nergal and the men of Hamath made Ashima, ³¹ and the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak. And the Sepharvites burnt their sons in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
³² So they were afraid of Jehovah and made for them priests of the high places from among themselves, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places. ³³ They were afraid of Jehovah and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.

²⁶ And David built there an altar to Jehovah and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings and called upon Jehovah. And he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.

¹ Then David said, This is the house of Jehovah God and this is the altar of burnt offering for Israel.

⁶ But I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there. And have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

¹² And Jehovah appeared to Solomon by night and said to him, I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.

¹⁶ For now I have chosen and made this house holy, that my name may be there until everlasting and my eyes and my heart will be there perpetually.

⁶⁸ but chose the tribe of Judah, the Mount Zion which he loved.

¹ His foundation is in the holy mountains. ² Jehovah loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

¹³ Because Jehovah has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.

⁵³ But they did not accept him, because his face was established to be traveling to Jerusalem.

³ Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their heart and put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their face. Should I be inquired of at all by them?

³ Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel and say to them, The lord Jehovah says thus: Is it to inquire of me that you* have come? As I live, says the lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you*.

¹¹ For from the rising of the sun even to the going down of the same, my name is great among the Gentiles. And in every place incense is offered to my name and a pure offering. For my name is great among the Gentiles, says Jehovah of hosts.

²⁰ For where two or three have been gathered together in my name, I am there in the midst of them.

¹⁹ When you travel, make disciples of all the nations, immersing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

⁵ And while some are speaking about the temple, how it has been adorned with beautiful stones and votive-offerings, he said, ⁶ As for these things which you are viewing, the days will be coming in which one stone will not be left here upon another stone, that will not be torn-down.

²⁴ And they will be falling by the edge of the sword and will be captured into all the nations, and Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles should be fulfilled.

²³ But the hour is coming and now is, when the true worshipers will be worshiping the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father also is seeking such who are worshiping him.

²⁵ Assuredly, assuredly, I am saying to you, The hour is coming and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

²⁸ Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs will be hearing his voice,

⁶ Jesus says to him, I am the way and the truth and the life; no one is coming to the Father, except through me.

² They will be expelling you from the synagogues. But the hour is coming, that everyone who kills you may think that he is offering divine service to God.

³² Behold, the hour is coming and has now come, in order that you might be scattered, each one to his own and you may leave me alone and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

¹⁴ for we have heard him saying, that this Jesus the Nazarene will be tearing-down this place and will be changing the customs which Moses gave to us.

¹⁸ because through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.

¹⁴ Because of this, I am bowing my knees to the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

⁸ Therefore I will that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and evil reasoning.

¹⁷ And if you call upon the Father, who impartially judges according to the work of each one, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your foreign residency here;

¹⁰ The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs and to him will the obedience of the peoples be.

¹⁰ But as for us, Jehovah is our God and we have not forsaken him. And we have priests ministering to Jehovah, the sons of Aaron and the Levites in their work. ¹¹ And they burn to Jehovah every morning and every evening burnt offerings and sweet incense. Also they set the showbread in order upon the pure table and the lamp-stand of gold with the lamps of it to burn every evening. For we keep the charge of Jehovah our God, but you* have forsaken him.
¹² And behold, God is with us at our head and his priests with the trumpets of alarm to shout an alarm against you*. O sons of Israel, do not fight against Jehovah, the God of your* fathers. For you* will not prosper.

² then they drew near to Zerubbabel and to the heads of fathers and said to them, Let us build with you*, for we seek your* God, as you* do and we sacrifice to him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria who brought us up here.

²⁰ God is to us a God of deliverance and escape from death belongs to Jehovah the Lord.

¹⁹ He shows his word to Jacob, his statutes and his ordinances to Israel.

³ And many peoples will go and say, Come and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob and he will teach us of his ways and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion will go forth the law and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

² Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust and will not be afraid, for Jehovah, even Jehovah, is my strength and song and he has become my salvation.

⁶ Cry aloud and shout, you inhabitant of Zion, for great in the midst of you is the Holy One of Israel.

¹³ I bring near my righteousness. It will not be far off. And my salvation will not abide and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.

¹⁶ In that day it will be said to Jerusalem, Do not fear, O Zion. Do not let your hands be slack. ¹⁷ Jehovah your God is in the midst of you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will rest in his love. He will joy over you with singing.

⁹ Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion. Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem. Behold, your king comes to you. He is just and having salvation, lowly and riding upon a donkey, even upon a colt the foal of a donkey.

⁴⁷ and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

²³ For while going through the city and reviewing your worshiped objects, I also found an altar in which had been written, To An Unknown God. Therefore I am proclaiming to you, who are ignorant, this one to whom you are devout.

³⁰ Therefore indeed, God overlooked the times of ignorance. Hereafter, he is commanding all men everywhere to repent;

¹ Therefore what is the supremacy of the Jew? Or what is the profit of circumcision? ² Much, according to every manner! For indeed, first, that they were entrusted with the oracles of God.

⁴ who are Israelites, whose is the sonship and the glory and the covenants and the institution of the law and the divine service and the promises; ⁵ whose are the fathers and from whom is the Christ according to the flesh, who is over all: God is gracious forever. Amen.

¹⁴ For it is evident that our Lord has risen up out of Judah; as to which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning the priesthood.

¹⁴ Now therefore fear Jehovah and serve him in sincerity and in truth. And put away the gods which your* fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt and serve you* Jehovah.

²⁴ Only fear Jehovah and serve him in truth with all your* heart, for consider what great things he has done for you*.

¹⁷ I know also, my God, that you try the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things. And now I have seen with joy your people, who are present here, offer willingly to you.

¹ Hear the righteous, O Jehovah, attend to my cry. Listen to my prayer, that does not go out from pretending lips.

² The man to whom Jehovah does not reckon sin and in whose spirit there is no deceit is fortunate.

⁶ Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts and in the hidden part you will make me to know wisdom.

¹¹ Jehovah takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his loving kindness.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

¹⁴ O my dove, who are in the clefts of the rock, in the covert of the steep place, let me see your countenance; let me hear your voice. Because sweet is your voice and your countenance is becoming.

¹⁰ Hear the word of Jehovah, you* rulers of Sodom, listen to the law of our God, you* people of Gomorrah.
¹¹ What to me is the multitude of your* sacrifices? says Jehovah. I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts. And I do not delight in the blood of bullocks or of lambs or of male-goats. ¹² When you* come to appear before me, who has required this at your* hand–to trample my courts?
¹³ Bring no more vain oblations. Incense is an abomination to me. New moon and Sabbath, the calling of assemblies–I cannot bear wickedness and the solemn assembly. ¹⁴ Your* new moons and your* appointed feasts my soul hates. They are a trouble to me. I am weary of bearing them.
¹⁵ And when you* spread forth your* hands, I will hide my eyes from you*. Yes, when you* make many prayers, I will not hear; your* hands are full of blood.

²⁰ And it will happen in that day, that the remnant of Israel and those who are escaped of the house of Jacob, will no more again lean upon him who killed* them, but will lean upon Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

⁸ Yes, in the way of your judgments, O Jehovah, we have waited for you, to your name. Even to your memorial, is the desire of our soul.
⁹ I have desired you with my soul in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me I will seek you earnestly. For when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

¹³ And the Lord said, Inasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but have removed their heart far from me, but in vain they worship me, teaching the commandments and doctrines of men.

²¹ the people whom I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.

¹ Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel and have come forth out of the waters of Judah, who swear by the name of Jehovah and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness ² (for they call themselves of the holy city and steady themselves upon the God of Israel, Jehovah of hosts is his name):

² Yet they seek me daily and delight to know my ways. As a nation that did righteousness and forsook not the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God.

⁸ Then your light will break forth as the morning and your healing will spring forth speedily. And your righteousness will go before you. The glory of Jehovah will be your rearward. ⁹ Then you will call and Jehovah will answer, you will cry and he will say, Here I am. If you take the yoke away from the midst of you, the putting forth of the finger and speaking wickedly, ¹⁰ and if you draw out your soul to a hungry man and satisfy an afflicted soul, then your light will rise in darkness and your obscurity be as the noonday.
¹¹ And Jehovah will guide you continually and satisfy your soul in dry places and make strong your bones. And you will be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters fail not. ¹² And those who will be of you will build the old waste places. You will raise up the foundations of generations and generations and you will be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
¹³ If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of Jehovah honorable and will honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words: ¹⁴ then you will delight yourself in Jehovah and I will make you to ride upon the high places of the earth and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. For the mouth of Jehovah has spoken it.

¹ Jehovah says thus, Heaven is my throne and the earth is my footstool. What manner of house will you* build to me and what place will be my rest? ² For all these things my hand has made and all these things came to be, says Jehovah.
But to this man I will look, even to him who is poor and of a crushed spirit and who trembles at my word.

¹⁰ And yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah has not returned to me with her whole heart, but in pretense, says Jehovah.

² And you will swear, As Jehovah lives, in truth, in justice and in righteousness. And the nations will bless themselves in him and in him they will glory.

⁷ then I will cause you* to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your* fathers from of old to everlasting.
⁸ Behold, you* trust in lying words, that cannot profit. ⁹ Will you* steal, murder and commit adultery and swear falsely and burn incense to Baal and walk after other gods that you* have not known, ¹⁰ and then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name and say, We are delivered, that you* may do all these abominations?
¹¹ Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your* eyes? Behold, I, even I, have seen it, says Jehovah.
¹² But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

³⁰ And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none.

⁷ You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied well concerning you, saying, ⁸ ‘These people are drawing near to me with their mouth, and are honoring me with their lips, but their heart is faraway from me. ⁹ But they are worshiping me in futility, teaching as their teachings–the commandments of men.’

¹¹ The Pharisee stood and was praying these things with himself, God, I give-thanks to you, that I am not like the rest of men: swindlers, unrighteous, adulterers or just-like this tax collector. ¹² I fast twice in the week; I tithe of all things, as many things as I procure. ¹³ And the tax collector, standing from afar, was not even willing to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his chest, saying, God, be lenient to me, the sinner.

¹⁷ Because the law was given through Moses; the favor and the truth became through Jesus Christ.

²¹ Jesus says to her, Woman, believe me, the hour is coming, when you will be worshiping the Father, neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem.

²³ But Jesus answered them, saying, The hour has come, that the Son of Man should be glorified.

⁹ For God is my witness, to whom I am giving-divine service in my spirit in the good-news of his Son, as I constantly make a remembrance of you.

¹⁵ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the spirit of sonship, in which we cry, Abba, Father.

²⁶ Now likewise, the Spirit is also jointly helping our weaknesses; for we do not know what we are praying for, that is according to what is essential for us; but the Spirit himself is petitioning on our behalf with unspeakable groans;

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

¹⁸ through all prayer and supplication praying in all seasons in the Spirit and watching in this same thing in all perseverance and supplication concerning all the holy-ones.

³ For we are the circumcision, who are giving-divine service in the spirit of God, and boast in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;

⁹ But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s ownership, that you may proclaim the virtues of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light;

²⁰ But you, beloved, keep building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.
²¹ Keep yourselves in God’s love, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ for everlasting life.

⁷ But Jehovah said to Samuel, Do not look on his countenance, or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For Jehovah sees not as man sees, for man looks on the outward appearance, but Jehovah looks on the heart.

¹³ Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
¹⁴ Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving and pay your vows to the Most High. ¹⁵ And call upon me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you and you will glorify me.

²³ Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me. And to him who orders his way aright I will show the salvation of God.

¹⁷ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. A broken and crushed heart, O God, you will not despise.

¹⁸ If I regard wickedness in my heart, the Lord will not hear.

¹⁵ For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, also with him who is of a crushed and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble and to revive the heart of the crushed.

¹² For this is our boasting, the testimony of our conscience, that in clarity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we conducted ourselves in the world and even-more toward you.

¹⁷ Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

¹⁷ Now to the King of the ages, incorruptible, invisible, the only wise God, is honor and glory forevermore. Amen.

¹⁵ Jehovah your God will raise up for you a prophet from the midst of you, of your brothers, like me. You* will listen to him, ¹⁶ according to all that you desired of Jehovah your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Do not let me hear again the voice of Jehovah my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die. ¹⁷ And Jehovah said to me, They have well said what they have spoken.
¹⁸ I will raise up a prophet for them from among their brothers, like you. And I will put my words in his mouth and he will speak to them all that I will command him.

²⁴ Seventy weeks are decreed upon your people and upon your holy city, to finish transgression and to make an end of sins and to make reconciliation for iniquity and to bring in everlasting righteousness and to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy.
²⁵ Know therefore and discern, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem to the anointed one, the Prince, will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will be built again, with street and moat, even in troublesome times.
²⁶ And after the sixty-two weeks the anointed one will be cut off and will have nothing. And the people of the prince who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary and the end of it will be with a flood. And even to the end will be war; desolations are determined.

¹⁶ and Jacob fathered Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called the Christ.

⁴¹ This one finds first his own brother Simon and says to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, after being translated, The Christ).
⁴² And he led him toward Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, You are Simon, the Son of Jonah, you will be called Cephas, which is by translation, a Pebble.

⁴⁹ Nathanael answered and says to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.

⁴² and they were saying to the woman, We believe no longer because of your speech; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is truly the Savior of the world, the Christ.

²⁰ Then he ordered the disciples in order that they should speak to no one that he was Jesus, the Christ.

{Footnotes: Mat 16:18, these words are different in Greek. Peter translated is a ‘pebble’and the other word is ‘rock’as in ‘a massive rock or rock foundation,’the kind of rock that the wise man built his house on in Mat 7:24-25.}

¹⁵ Or is it not legal for me to do what I will in the things which are mine? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?

⁶³ But Jesus was silent. And the high-priest answered and said to him, I implore you by the living God, in order that you should tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God?
⁶⁴ Jesus said to him, You have said so. However I am saying to you, From now on, you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming upon the clouds of heaven.

⁶¹ But he was silent and answered nothing. Again the high-priest asked him and said to him, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Gracious One?
⁶² But Jesus said, I am, and you will be seeing the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power and coming with the clouds of heaven.

³⁰ And behold, there are last who will be first and there are first who will be last.

²⁴ Therefore I said to you, that you will be dying in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am, you will be dying in your sins.

³⁵ Jesus heard that they had cast him outside, and having found him, he said to him, Do you believe in the Son of God?
³⁶ That man answered and said, Who is he, Lord, in order that I should believe in him?
³⁷ Now Jesus said to him, You have both seen him and he who speaks with you is that man.

²⁰ Now Isaiah is very daring and says, ‘I was found by those who are not seeking me. I became manifest to those who are not asking for me.’ ²¹ But he says to Israel, ‘The whole day, I outstretched my hands to a disobedient and contradicting people.’

⁸ For his disciples had gone away into the city, in order that they might buy nourishment.
⁹ Therefore the Samaritan woman says to him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, who is a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no dealings together with Samaritans.)

⁸ And having gone out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to report to his disciples.

⁸ And they went out and fled from the tomb. Now trembling and astonishment were holding them, and they said nothing to anyone; for they were afraid.


⁹ Now having risen in the morning on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary the Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. ¹⁰ Having traveled on, she reported to those who had been with him, who were mourning and weeping.

⁹ And having returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

³³ And that same hour they stood up and returned to Jerusalem and found the eleven and those who have been accumulated together with them,

⁷ A woman from Samaria comes to dip-out water. Jesus says to her, Give to me some water to drink.

²³ And all the crowds were astonished and were saying, This is not the son of David, is it?

⁴¹ This one finds first his own brother Simon and says to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, after being translated, The Christ).
⁴² And he led him toward Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, You are Simon, the Son of Jonah, you will be called Cephas, which is by translation, a Pebble.
⁴³ On the next-day, he wished to go out into Galilee, and he finds Philip, and Jesus says to him, Follow me.
⁴⁴ Now Philip was from Bethsaida, from the city of Andrew and Peter. ⁴⁵ Philip finds Nathanael and says to him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law and the prophets wrote, Jesus from Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
⁴⁶ And Nathanael said to him, Is any good thing able to be coming out of Nazareth?
Philip says to him, Come and behold!
⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and says concerning him, Behold, an Israelite in whom there truly is no treachery!

¹⁷ The woman answered and said, I have no husband.
Jesus says to her, You said well, I have no husband, ¹⁸ for you had five husbands, and he whom you have now is not your husband. You have said this, a true thing.

²⁵ The woman says to him, I know that the Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). Whenever he comes, that man will be proclaiming all things to us.

²⁶ And behold, he speaks publicly and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers truly known that this one is truly the Christ?

³¹ But many out of the crowd believed in him, and they were saying, Whenever the Christ comes, he will not be doing signs more-than those which this one has done, will he?

⁸ Who are these that fly as a cloud and as the doves to their windows?

¹ Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise-men from the east came into Jerusalem, ² saying, Where is he who has been born the King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east and have come to worship him. ³ Now when Herod the king heard it, he was disturbed and everyone in Jerusalem with him.

¹¹ But I am saying to you, that many will be coming from the east and the west, and will be reclining with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens; ¹² but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness–the weeping and the gnashing of teeth will be there.

²⁰ Then he began to reproach the cities in which most of his miracles had happened, because they did not repent. ²¹ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! Because if the miracles had happened in Tyre and Sidon which have happened in you, they would have repented long-ago in sackcloth and ashes. ²² However I say to you, It will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you. ²³ And you, Capernaum, who has been exalted to heaven, you will be stepping down to Hades, because if the miracles had happened in Sodom which have happened in you, it would have remained till today. ²⁴ However I say to you, that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for you.

⁴⁰ for just-as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea-creature; so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
⁴¹ The men of the Ninevites will be standing up with this generation in the judgment and will be condemning it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, more-than Jonah is here. ⁴² The queen of the south will be arisen with this generation in the judgment and will be condemning it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, more-than Solomon is here.

¹⁶ So the last will be first, and the first last; for many are invited but few are chosen.

{Mar 10:32-45 & Mat 20:17-28 & Luk 18:31-34; Peraea or Judea, near Jordan.}

¹⁶ and he fell upon his face beside his feet, giving-thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.
¹⁷ But Jesus answered and said, Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? ¹⁸ Was there no one found, except this immigrant, who returned to give glory to God?

⁵ Now Philip went down to a city of Samaria and was preaching to them the Christ. ⁶ And the crowds united and were taking-heed to the things which were spoken by Philip, while they were hearing and seeing the signs which he was doing. ⁷ For many of those who had unclean spirits, the spirits were coming out, crying with a loud voice. And many were healed who had been paralyzed and lame. ⁸ And there became much joy in that city.

³³ Therefore, promptly I sent for you, and having come, you did well. Therefore, now we are all here in God’s sight, to hear all things which have been commanded to you by God.

⁴² But when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles were pleading with him that the declarations might be spoken to them at the ensuing Sabbath.

²⁸ Therefore let it be known to you, that this salvation from God is sent to the Gentiles and they will be hearing it.

²⁰ But the law entered in beside us, in order that the trespass might increase, but where sin increased, the favor over-abounded;

³³ And there was food set before him to eat. But he said, I will not eat until I have told of my errand. And he said, Speak on.

⁷ and the greetings in the marketplaces and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

³⁸ Now Jesus, having turned, saw them following, and says to them, What are you seeking?
But they said to him, Rabbi (which is to say, by translation: Teacher), where do you abide?

³⁰ and having led them out, he said, Lords, what is essential for me to do in order that I might be saved?
³¹ Now they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved, you and your house. ³² And they spoke the word of the Lord to him, to all who were in his house. ³³ And having taken them in that same hour of the night, he fully-washed their lashes, and he and all his household were instantly immersed^*. \ulnone\nosupersub ³⁴ And he led them up into his house and placed a table before them, and was glad with all his household, all having believed in God.

¹² I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips, I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

¹⁴ The friendship of Jehovah is with those who fear him and he will show them his covenant.

⁵ My soul will be satisfied as with marrow and fatness. And my mouth will praise you with joyful lips

¹⁰³ How sweet are your words to my taste, than honey to my mouth!

¹⁰ The heart knows its own bitterness and a stranger does not share with its joy.

²⁰ A man's belly will be filled with the fruit of his mouth. He will be satisfied with the increase of his lips.

¹¹ He will see of the travail of his soul, and
will be satisfied. By the knowledge of himself will my righteous servant justify many and he will bear their iniquities.

¹⁶ Your words were found and I ate them. And your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart. For I am called by your name, O Jehovah, God of hosts.

³⁴ Jesus says to them, My food is that I should be doing the will of the one who sent me, and should complete his work.

³⁵ I showed to you an example in all things, that so laboring, it is essential to help the weak and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more fortunate to give than to receive.

¹⁷ He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the congregations. To the one who overcomes, I will be giving to him to eat from the manna which has been hidden and I will be giving him a white voting-pebble and a new name that has been written upon the voting-pebble, which no one knows except he who receives it.

⁶ Now Jesus said to them, Behold and take-heed, stay away from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!
⁷ Now they were reasoning among themselves, saying, It is because we took no bread.
⁸ Now Jesus having known it, said to them, You of small faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves, because you took no bread? ⁹ Do you not yet perceive, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up? ¹⁰ Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up? ¹¹ How is it that you do not perceive that I did not speak to you concerning bread, but to take-heed, stay away from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

⁴⁵ But they were not considering this declaration, and it was hiding from them, in order that they might not comprehend it, and they were afraid to ask him concerning this declaration.

⁸ I delight to do your will, O my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.

¹ The Spirit of the lord Jehovah is upon me, because Jehovah has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind and the opening of bonds to those who are bound, ² to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, ³ to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.

³⁹ And when he went a little more, he fell upon his face and prayed, saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; however, not as I will, but as you will.

⁴ What man out of you, having a hundred sheep and having lost one out of them, does not leave the ninety nine in the wilderness and travel to what has been lost, until he should find it? ⁵ And having found it, he places it upon his own shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes to his house, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice together with me, because I have found my sheep which has been lost.

¹⁰ Even so, I say to you, There becomes joy in the sight of the messengers of God over one repenting sinner.

¹⁰ For the Son of Man came to seek and save what has been lost.

³² But he said to them, I have food to eat which you do not know.

³⁰ I am able to do nothing of myself. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I am not seeking my own will, but the will of the Father who sent me.

³⁶ But the testimony which I have is greater than John’s; for the works which the Father gave to me, in order that I should complete, these same works which I am doing, testify concerning me, that the Father has sent me.

³³ For the bread of God is what is coming down from heaven and is giving life to the world.

³⁸ Because I have come down from heaven, not in order that I should do my own will, but do the will of the one who sent me.

⁴ I glorified you upon the earth. I completed the work which you have given me, that I should be doing.

³⁰ Therefore, when Jesus had received the vinegar, he said, It has been completed. And having bowed his head and he gave up the spirit.

² Looking away from things, look toward Jesus, the author and completer of the faith, who endured the cross having despised shame, in exchange-for the joy laying before him, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

³⁷ Then he says to his disciples, The harvest is indeed large, but the workers are few. ³⁸ Therefore beseech from the Lord of the harvest, that he should put out workers into his harvest.

² Therefore he said to them, The harvest is indeed large, but the workers are few, therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest, that he should put out workers into his harvest. ³ Go, behold, I am sending you forth like lambs in the midst of wolves.

³⁰ They went out of the city and were coming toward him.

³⁰ The fruit of a righteous man is a tree of life and he who is wise wins souls.

³ And those who are wise will shine as the brightness of the expanse and those who turn many to righteousness as the stars everlasting and forever.

¹³ Now brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant that I often purposed to come to you (and I was prevented till presently), in order that I might also have some fruit among you, just-as among the rest of the Gentiles.

²² But now, having been made free from sin and having been enslaved to God, you have your fruit leading to holiness and the end everlasting life.

⁵ Therefore, who is Paul? And who is Apollos? But servants through whom you believed, even as the Lord gave to each. ⁶ I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth. ⁷ So-then neither is the one who is planting anything, nor the one who is watering, but God who is causing the growth. ⁸ Now the one who is planting and the one who is watering are one, but each one will be receiving his own reward according to his own labor. ⁹ For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s cultivation, God’s building.

¹⁹ For although being free from all, I enslaved myself to all, in order that I might gain all the more. ²⁰ And I became like a Jew to the Jews, in order that I might gain Jews. I became like those under the law to those who are under the law, in order that I might gain those who are under the law. ²¹ I became like the lawless to those who are lawless, (not being lawless to God, but lawful to Christ), in order that I might gain the lawless. ²² I became like the weak to the weak, in order that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all people, in order that I may certainly save some. ²³ But I am doing this because of the good-news, in order that I might become a fellow partner of it.

¹⁵ in order that you might become blameless and harmless children of God, flawless in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as illuminations in the world. ¹⁶ Keep holding onto the word of life, for a boast to me in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain nor labored in vain.

¹⁹ For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting, or is it not also you, which is before our Lord Jesus Christ at his presence?

¹⁶ Take-heed to yourself and to the teaching. Abide in these things; for while practicing this, you will be saving both yourself and those who hear you.

⁷ I have fought the good fight. I have completed the course. I have kept the faith. ⁸ Furthermore the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will be giving to me in that day, and not only to me, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

¹⁹ Brethren, if anyone among you are misled from the truth and someone should return him to it; ²⁰ let him know, that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will be saving a soul from death and will be hiding a multitude of sins.

³ And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up and the Amalekites and the sons of the east, they came up against them.

⁸ then let me sow and let another eat, yes, let the produce of my field be rooted out.

¹⁵ You will sow, but will not reap, you will tread the olives, but will not anoint you with oil and the vintage, but will not drink the wine.

²¹ for I was fearing you, because you are an austere man. You lift up from what you did not lay down and reap what you did not sow.

¹⁵ And Jehovah, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending, because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling-place.

⁴ However I sent all my servants the prophets to you*, rising up early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not do this abominable thing that I hate.

¹ Now in those days John the Immerser comes, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, ² and saying, Repent; for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near. ³ For this one is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying, ‘A voice is crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord, make^*\'b0 his paths straight.’ ⁴ Now John himself had his outer clothing made of camel’s hair and a leather belt around his loin, and his nourishment was locusts and wild honey. ⁵ Then Jerusalem and everyone in Judea and everyone from the region around the Jordan were traveling out to him. ⁶ And they were being immersed by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

²³ And Jesus was going around the whole of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good-news of the kingdom and healing every kind of disease and every kind of illness among the people.

⁸ But what did you go out to see? A man who has been dressed-up in soft garments? Behold, those who are wearing soft garments are in royal houses. ⁹ But why did you go out? To see a prophet? I say to you, Yes, and one who is more-than a prophet. ¹⁰ For this is he, concerning whom it has been written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will be preparing your way before you.’ ¹¹ Assuredly I am saying to you, A greater man has not arisen among those born from women than John the Immerser. But he who is least in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he. ¹² But from the days of John the Immerser until now the kingdom of the heavens suffers-violently and the violent ones seize it. ¹³ For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

⁷ This one came to be a witness, in order that he might testify concerning the light, in order that all should believe through him.

⁴¹ Therefore indeed, they, who gladly accepted his word, were immersed, and approximately three thousand souls was added to them in that day.

⁴ But many of those who heard the word believed, and the number of the men happened to be approximately five thousand.

³² Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and soul and not one of them said that anything of his possessions was his own, but they had all things common.

¹⁴ and more believers, multitudes of both men and women, were added to the Lord;

⁷ And the word of God was growing, and the number of the disciples were extremely multiplying in Jerusalem, and a large crowd of the priests were obedient to the faith.

⁴ Therefore indeed, those who were dispersed went through out the land, proclaiming the good-news of the word.

¹⁴ Now when the apostles who were in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them; ¹⁵ who came down and prayed concerning them so that they might receive the Holy Spirit. ¹⁶ For he had not yet fallen upon any of them, but they were only immersed into the name of the Christ Jesus. ¹⁷ Then they were laying their hands upon them and they were receiving the Holy Spirit.

³⁷ You know, the word concerning Jesus which happened throughout the whole of Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the immersion that John preached. ³⁸ Jesus who was from Nazareth; how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went through out the land working good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with him.

⁴² And he commanded us to preach to the people and to thoroughly testify that he is the one who has been determined by God to be judge of the living and the dead. ⁴³ To this one, all the prophets are testifying, that through his name everyone who believes in him will be receiving forgiveness of sins.

¹¹ searching what time or what sort of time the Spirit of Christ in them was indicating, when testifying beforehand of the sufferings for Christ and the glories following after these things. ¹² To whom it was revealed, that they were serving these things not to themselves, but to you; which things now have been reported to you through those who proclaimed the good-news to you in the Holy Spirit, when he was sent forth from heaven; into which things messengers desire to peer into.

⁴¹ And many came to him and they were saying, John indeed did no sign, but all things, as many things as John spoke concerning this one were true. ⁴² And many believed in him there.

⁴⁵ Therefore many out of the Jews, who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did, believed in him.

²⁶ And he said, Let me go, because the day breaks. And he said, I will not let you go unless you bless me.

¹³ Take firm hold of instruction. Do not let her go. Keep her, because she is your life.

⁴ It was but a little that I passed from them when I found he whom my soul loves. I held him and would not let him go until I had brought him into my mother's house and into the chamber of her who conceived me.

⁸ O you hope of Israel, the Savior of it in the time of trouble, why should you be as a traveler in the land and as a wayfaring man who turns aside to abide for a night?

³⁸ Now the man from whom the demons had gone out of, was beseeching to be together with him.
But Jesus dismissed him, saying,

³⁹ And she was a sister to one called Mary, who also sat beside the feet of Jesus and was hearing his word.

⁵ And as Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him, Zacchaeus, hurry, come down; for it is essential for me to abide in your house today. ⁶ And having hurried, he came down and accepted him, rejoicing.
⁷ And when they saw it, they were all murmuring, saying, He has entered to board with a man, a sinner.
⁸ Now Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anyone of anything, I repay them quadruple.
⁹ Now Jesus said to him, Today salvation has happened to this house, insomuch as he is also a son of Abraham. ¹⁰ For the Son of Man came to seek and save what has been lost.

²⁹ And they constrained him, saying, Abide with us, because it is toward dusk and the day is far-spent. And he entered in to abide together with them.

¹⁵ Now as she and her household were immersed, she pleaded with us, saying, If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, abide here, having entered into my house. And she constrained us.

¹ And working together with him, we are also encouraging you to not accept the grace of God in vain; ² (for he says, ‘I heard you at an acceptable time and I helped you in a day of salvation;' behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation),

²⁰ Behold, I am standing at the door and knocking; if anyone hears my voice and if he opens the door, I will enter to him and will dine with him and he with me.

²⁸ And it happened, when Jesus had completed with these words, the crowds were being astounded at his teaching; ²⁹ for he was teaching them like one having authority and not like the scribes.

³² and they were being astounded at his teaching, because his word was with authority.

⁶³ It is the spirit who is giving-life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit and are life.

⁴⁶ The attendants answered, Never, has a man spoken thus, like this man.

¹² But when they believed Philip proclaiming the good-news concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were being immersed, both men and women.

²⁵ Therefore indeed, having thoroughly testified and having spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem and proclaimed the good-news to many villages of the Samaritans.

³ Therefore indeed, being sent onward by the congregation, they were going through both Phoenicia and Samaria, describing the turning to God of the Gentiles, and they were producing great joy in all the brethren.

⁴ And my speech and my preaching was not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in the demonstration of the Spirit and of power, ⁵ in order that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men, but be in the power of God.

²² Look to me and be you* saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God and there is none else.

¹⁰ Jehovah has made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations and all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

²¹ Now she will be bearing a son, and you will call his name Jesus, for he will be saving his people from their sins.

¹⁰ And the messenger said to them, Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good-news of great joy which will be to all the people, ¹¹ because there was born to you today in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

³² He is a light for revelation of the Gentiles and the glory of your people Israel.

²⁹ On the next-day he sees Jesus coming toward him and says, Behold, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world!

¹⁴ And just-as Moses who exalted the serpent in the wilderness, so it is essential for the Son of Man to also be exalted; ¹⁵ in order that everyone who believes in him might not perish but may have everlasting life.
¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, in order that everyone who believes in him might not perish, but may have everlasting life. ¹⁷ For God did not send the Son into the world in order that he might judge the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. ¹⁸ He who believes in him is not judged. He who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

⁶⁸ Therefore Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom will we go? You have the words of everlasting life. ⁶⁹ And we have believed and have known that you are the Christ the Son of the living God.

¹⁷ Therefore, Jesus went and found that he had been in the tomb for four days already.

⁸ because the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them and they have known truly that I came forth from you and they have believed that you sent me.

¹² And there is salvation in none other; for neither is there any other name, that has been given among men, in which it is essential for us to be saved.

¹¹ Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they accepted the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily, to see if these things were so. ¹² Therefore indeed, many out of them believed; also not just a few of the prominent Greek women and men.

¹¹ For the Scripture says, ‘Everyone who believes on him will not be ashamed.’ ¹² For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, being rich toward all who are calling upon him; ¹³ for everyone, ‘Whomever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.’

¹⁹ as that, God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ not counting to them their trespasses and having placed the word of reconciliation in us.

¹⁰ For we are also laboring and are reproached toward this end, because we have hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of the believing ones.

¹⁴ And we have seen and are testifying that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.

¹³ And having left Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali;

²¹ And Jesus went out from there, and departed into the parts of Tyre and Sidon.


²² And behold, a woman from Canaan came out from those borders, and cried-out to him, saying, Show-mercy to me, O Lord, you the son of David. My daughter is evilly demon-possessed. ²³ But he answered her not a word.
And his disciples came and asked him, saying, Dismiss her, because she is crying behind us.
²⁴ But he answered and said, I was not sent, except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

²⁷ But Jesus said to her, Allow the children first to be fed; for it is not good to take the children’s bread and cast it to the puppies.
²⁸ But she answered and said to him, Yes, Lord; for even the puppies underneath the table eat of the children’s crumbs.

⁴⁰ Therefore, as the Samaritans came to him, they requested him to abide with them, and he remained there two days.

⁴⁶ Therefore, Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick in Capernaum.

⁸ But I am saying that Christ Jesus has become a servant of the circumcision on behalf of the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,

⁵⁷ And they were being offended at him.
But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his fatherland and in his own house.

⁴ But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his fatherland and among his own relatives and in his own house.

²⁴ But he said, Assuredly I am saying to you, No prophet is acceptable in his fatherland.

¹⁶ Three times in a year all your males will appear before Jehovah your God in the place which he will choose: in the feast of unleavened bread and in the feast of weeks and in the feast of tabernacles. And they will not appear before Jehovah empty.

²³ And Jesus was going around the whole of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good-news of the kingdom and healing every kind of disease and every kind of illness among the people. ²⁴ And the report of him went forth into the whole of Syria and they brought to him all who were ill, held by various diseases and torments and demon-possessed and epileptic and paralytics, and he healed them.

⁴² And when he became twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast; ⁴³ and having completed the days, while they were returning, the boy Jesus remained back in Jerusalem, and Joseph and his mother did not know it. ⁴⁴ But supposing him to be in the caravan, they went a day’s journey, and they were seeking him among their relatives and among their acquaintances.

⁴⁰ Now it happened while Jesus was returning, the crowd accepted him; for they were all expecting him.

¹³ And the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. ¹⁴ And he found those who sold bulls and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting in the temple. ¹⁵ And he made a scourge out of ropes and cast all forth out of the temple, both the sheep and the bulls, and he poured out the coinage of the brokers and turned over their tables; ¹⁶ and to the ones who are selling the doves he said, Take these things from here. Do not make my Father’s house a house of merchandise.

²³ Now as he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, many believed in his name at the feast, viewing his signs which he was doing.

² This one came to him by night and said to him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one is able to do these signs which you are doing, if God is not with him.

²⁸ and Ebron and Rehob and Hammon and Kanah, even to great Sidon,

¹⁵ And call upon me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you and you will glorify me.

³⁴ When he killed them, then they inquired after him and they returned and sought God earnestly.

¹⁵ I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offense and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly.

¹⁸ While speaking these things to them, behold, one ruler came to him and was worshiping him, saying, My daughter is just now dead, but come and lay your hand upon her and she will live.

²² And behold, a woman from Canaan came out from those borders, and cried-out to him, saying, Show-mercy to me, O Lord, you the son of David. My daughter is evilly demon-possessed.

¹⁴ And having gone to the crowd, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, saying, ¹⁵ Lord, show-mercy to my son, because he is epileptic, and suffers evilly; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water.

² Now a certain centurion’s bondservant, who was precious to him, being ill, was about to die.

⁴² because there was to him an only begotten daughter, approximately twelve years old, and she was dying. But while he was going, the crowds were too close, choking him.

¹ And in the third day, there happened to be a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; ² and Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding. ³ And coming-short of wine, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine.
⁴ Jesus says to her, What is this thing with me and with you, woman? My hour is not coming yet.
⁵ His mother says to the servants, If he says anything to you, do it. ⁶ Now six stone water pots were placed there according to the Jews’cleansing, making room for two or three nine-gallon measures apiece.
⁷ Jesus says to them, Fill the water pots with water. And they filled them to the top. ⁸ And he says to them, Dip-out some now and carry it to the chief waiter.
And they carried it. ⁹ Now as the chief waiter tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know where it is from (but the servants knew, having dipped-out the water), the chief waiter summons the bridegroom, ¹⁰ and says to him, Every man first places the good wine on the table, and whenever they are drunken, then the inferior. But you have kept the good wine until now. ¹¹ This one was the beginning of the signs which Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him.

² They were united-together at Galilee: Simon Peter and Thomas called Didymus and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee and the sons of Zebedee and two others out of his disciples.

¹ God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

¹ And he again entered into Capernaum after a few days, and it was heard that he was in a house. ² And immediately many were gathered together, so-that it was no longer possible to make room, not even next to the door, and he was speaking the word to them.
³ And they come, carrying to him a paralytic, lifted up by four men. \ulnone\nosupersub

⁵⁵ Having ran around that whole region around there, they began to carry around those who were ill upon their pallets, where they were hearing: he is over there. ⁵⁶ And wherever he was traveling, if into villages or cities or the rural-area, they were laying the sick in the marketplaces and was pleading with him, in order that if-only they might touch the hem of his garment, and as many as would touch him were being cured.

{Joh 6:22-71 Synagogue in Capernaum.}

⁴⁷ And when he heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, Jesus, you, the son of David, show-mercy to me.

⁶ Now Jesus was traveling together with them. Now already, when he was not far distant from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, do not be bothered; for I am not sufficient that you should enter under my roof. ⁷ Hence, not even I myself deemed it worthy to come to you, but say it with a word, and my young-servant will be healed. ⁸ For I am also a man appointed under authority, having soldiers under myself, and I say to this one, Travel and he travels, and to another, Come and he comes, and to my bondservant, Do this and he does it.

⁴¹ And behold, a man whose name was Jairus came, and he possessed the office of ruler of the synagogue, and he fell beside Jesus’feet and was pleading with him to come into his house;

³ he left Judea and went away into Galilee.

⁵⁴ This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.

{Joh 5:1-47 Jerusalem probably the Passover; no parallel.}

²¹ Therefore Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you were here, my brother would have not died.

³² Therefore Mary, as she came where Jesus was and saw him, fell down next to his feet, saying to him, Lord, if you had been here, my brother would have not died.

³⁸ Now Lydda was near to Joppa, the disciples, having hearing that Peter is in it, sent for him, encouraging him not to hesitate to come to them.

¹¹ And Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people despise me? And how long will they not believe in me, for all the signs which I have worked among them?

² It has seemed good to me to show the signs and wonders that the Most High God has worked toward me.

²⁷ He delivers and rescues and he works signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.

¹ And the Pharisees and Sadducees came, testing him, and asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

²⁴ For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will be giving great signs and wonders; so-then to mislead, if possible, even the chosen.

⁴² He saved others, yet he is not able to save himself. If he is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross and we will believe in him.

²² for there will arise false Christs and false prophets and will be giving signs and wonders to this end, if possible, that they may mislead even the chosen.

¹⁸ But he said to them, I was viewing the Adversary falling like lightning from heaven.

³¹ But he said to him, If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, if someone rises up from the dead.

¹⁸ Therefore, the Jews answered and said to him, What sign are you showing to us? Why is it that you are doing these things?

⁴¹ And many more believed because of his word; ⁴² and they were saying to the woman, We believe no longer because of your speech; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is truly the Savior of the world, the Christ.

³⁷ But though he had done so-many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him,

²⁴ If I had not done the works which no other has done among them, then they were having no sin, but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

²⁹ Jesus says to him, Because you have seen me, you have believed, but the fortunate ones have not seen and yet have believed.

¹⁹ And I will be giving you wonders in the heaven above and signs upon the earth below; blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

²² Men, Israelites! Hear these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man from God, having been shown to you by miracles and wonders and signs which God did through him in your midst, just-as you yourselves also know;

⁴³ Now there became fear upon every soul and many wonders and signs were happening through the apostles.

³⁰ in that you stretched out your hand for healing, and signs and wonders to happen through the name of your holy young-servant Jesus.

¹² Now through the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were happening among the people, and they were all united at Solomon’s porch.

⁸ And Stephen, full of faith and power, was doing great wonders and signs among the people.

³⁶ This one led them out, having done wonders and signs in the land of Egypt and in the Red Sea and in the wilderness for forty years.

³ Therefore, they indeed stayed a considerable time there, speaking boldly in the Lord, who was testifying to the word of his favor, giving signs and wonders to happen through their hands.

¹² Now all the multitude was silent, and they were hearing Barnabas and Paul describing how-much God did, in signs and wonders, among the Gentiles through them.

¹⁹ in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Spirit of God. So-then, I have fulfilled the good-news of the Christ from Jerusalem and in a circle, as far as Illyricum.

²² Since both Jews ask for a sign and Greeks seek wisdom;

¹² Indeed the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all endurance, in signs and wonders and miracles.

⁹ even he, whose presence is according to the working of the Adversary in every power and in signs and in lying wonders,

⁴ God was testifying together with them, both by signs and by wonders and by various powers and by distributions of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will.

¹⁷ But I am poor and needy, yet the Lord thinks upon me. You are my help and my deliverer. Make no delay, O my God.

¹⁰ Will you show wonders to the dead? Shall those who are deceased arise and praise you? Selah.
¹¹ Shall your loving kindness be declared in the grave, or your faithfulness in destruction? ¹² Shall your wonders be known in the dark and your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

²³ and was pleading with him much, saying, My young-daughter is holding on her last moments. I pray that you come and might lay your hands on her, that she may be cured and will live.

³⁵ While he is still speaking, they come from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying, Your daughter is dead. Why are you still bothering the Teacher?
³⁶ But Jesus immediately having heard the word being spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not fear, only believe.

¹³ And Elijah said to her, Do not fear, go and do as you have said. But make me of it a little cake first and bring it forth to me and afterward make for you and for your son. ¹⁴ For Jehovah says thus, the God of Israel, The pitcher of meal will not be used up, neither will the jar of oil fail, until the day that Jehovah sends rain upon the earth.
¹⁵ And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah. And she and he and her house, ate many days.

¹³ Now Jesus said to the centurion, Go, and as you have believed, let it happen for you. And his young-servant was healed in that hour.

²⁹ And he said to her, Because of these words, go; the demon has come out of your daughter. ³⁰ And she went away to her house and found the child put upon her cot, the demon having gone forth.

²³ Now Jesus said to him, If you are able to believe. All things are possible to the one who believes.
²⁴ And immediately the father of the child cried out with tears and said, I believe; Lord, help me with my unbelief.

¹⁴ And when he saw them, he said to them, When you travel back, show yourselves to the priests.
And it happened, while they were going, they were cleansed.

⁴⁰ Jesus says to her, Did I not say to you, that, if you believed, you will be seeing the glory of God?

⁹ This one heard Paul speaking, who, having stared at him and seeing that he had faith to be cured, ¹⁰ said with a loud voice, Stand correctly upon your feet. And he was leaping up and walking.

²⁰ But he did not doubt through unbelief at the promise of God, but became empowered through faith, having given glory to God, ²¹ and being fully assured that what he has promised; he is able also to do.

¹⁹ Having reasoning that God is able to raise him up even from the dead; from where he also got him back in a figure.

²³ And Elijah took the child and brought him down out of the chamber into the house and delivered him to his mother. And Elijah said, See, your son lives.

⁵⁰ Jesus says to him, Travel on; your son lives.
And the man believed the word in which Jesus spoke to him, and he was traveling on.

⁵³ Therefore the father knew that it was in that hour in which Jesus said to him, Your son lives. And he himself, and his whole house believed.

⁹ Because he spoke and it was done. He commanded and it stood fast.

²⁰ He sends his word and heals them and delivers them from their destructions.

⁸ And the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not sufficient that you should come under my roof, but only speak by word and my young-servant will be healed. ⁹ For I am a man also under authority, having soldiers under me and I say to this one, Travel on and he travels on, and to another, Come and he comes, and to my bondservant, Do this and he does it.

⁹ Now Jesus said to him, Today salvation has happened to this house, insomuch as he is also a son of Abraham.

³⁹ For the promise is to you and to your children and to all those at afar off, as many as the Lord our God may call.

¹⁴ who will be speaking the words to you in which you will be saved, you and all your house.

³⁴ And he led them up into his house and placed a table before them, and was glad with all his household, all having believed in God.

⁸ Now Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord together with his whole house.
And many of the Corinthians hearing, were believing and were being immersed.

⁴⁵ So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans accepted him, having seen all the things which he did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they had also gone to the feast.
