For to whomsoever much is given, from him will much be required; and to whom much is committed, the more will be required at his hand.

¹ And at that time, some came and told him of those Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

³¹ On the same day came some of the Pharisees, and said to him: Go, depart hence; for Herod purposeth to kill thee. ³² Jesus said to them: Go ye and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures, to-day and to-morrow, and on the third day I shall be consummated.

²⁷ And he that doth not take up his cross and come after me, cannot become a disciple to me.

⁴ What man among you, that hath a hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the desert, and go and seek for that which is lost, until he find it? ⁵ And when he findeth it, he rejoiceth, and taketh it upon his shoulders;

¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and say to him: My father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee; ¹⁹ and am no longer worthy to be called thy son. Make me like one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose and went towards his father. And he was yet at a distance, when his father saw him; and he pitied him, and ran, and fell upon his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And his son said to him: My father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, and am not worthy to be called thy son. ²² But his father said to his servants: Bring forth the best robe, and clothe him, and put a ring on his hand, and supply him with shoes. ²³ And bring forth and slay the fatted bullock; and let us eat, and be merry. ²⁴ For, this my son was dead, and is alive; he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry.

¹⁴ And the Pharisees, when they heard all these things, because they loved money, derided him.

³⁴ I tell you, that, in that night, two will be in one bed; one will be taken, and the other left. ³⁵ And two females will be grinding together; one will be taken, and the other left.

¹³ And the publican stood afar off, and would not even lift his eyes to heaven, but smote upon his breast, and said: God, be merciful to me, a sinner.

¹⁰ For the Son of man came, to seek and to vivify that which was lost.

³⁸ And they said: Blessed be the king, that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory on high. ³⁹ And some of the Pharisees from among the crowd, said to him: Rabbi, rebuke thy disciples. ⁴⁰ He said to them: I tell you, that, if these should be silent, the stones would cry out.

²⁰ And they sent to him spies, who feigned themselves righteous men, that they might insnare him in discourse, and deliver him up to a court, and to the authority of the president. ²¹ And they questioned him, and said to him: Teacher, we know that thou speakest and teachest correctly, and hast no respect of persons, but teachest the way of God in truth. ²² Is it lawful for us to pay head-money to Caesar, or not? ²³ But he perceived their craftiness, and said: Why tempt ye me? ²⁴ Show me a denarius. Whose is this image and superscription upon it? They said to him, Caesar's. ²⁵ Jesus said to them: Then, give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.

²³ But woe to them that are with child, and to them that nurse children, in those days; for then will be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. ²⁴ And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be carried captive to every place. And Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles shall be completed.

³⁷ For I say to you, That this also, which was written, must be fulfilled in me: I shall be numbered with transgressors. For, all that relates to me, will be fulfilled.

⁶⁴ and smote him on his face, and said: Prophesy thou, who smote thee? ⁶⁵ And many other things they revilingly uttered, and spoke against him. ⁶⁶ And when the day dawned, the Elders and chief priests and Scribes assembled together; and they led him to the place of their meeting, ⁶⁷ and said to him: If thou art the Messiah, tell us. He said to them: If I tell you, ye will not believe in me. ⁶⁸ And if I should ask you, ye will not return me an answer; nor will ye release me. ⁶⁹ From this time, the Son of man will sit on the right hand of the majesty of God. ⁷⁰ And they all said: Thou art then, the Son of God? Jesus said to them: Ye say that I am.

⁷⁰ And they all said: Thou art then, the Son of God? Jesus said to them: Ye say that I am.

¹ And the whole company of them arose, and carried him before Pilate. ² And they began to accuse him, and said: We have found this man seducing our people, and forbidding to pay the capitation money to Caesar, and declaring himself to be king Messiah.

² And they began to accuse him, and said: We have found this man seducing our people, and forbidding to pay the capitation money to Caesar, and declaring himself to be king Messiah. ³ And Pilate interrogated him, and said to him: Art thou king of the Jews? He said to him: Thou hast said. ⁴ And Pilate said to the chief priests and the company: I find no crime upon this man. ⁵ And they vociferated, and said: He raiseth disturbance among our people, by teaching in all Judaea, commencing from Galilee, and quite to this place.

⁵ And they vociferated, and said: He raiseth disturbance among our people, by teaching in all Judaea, commencing from Galilee, and quite to this place.

¹¹ And Herod and his warriors contemned him. And when he had mocked him, he clothed him in a purple robe, and sent him to Pilate.

¹⁴ and said to them: Ye have brought this man before me, as a disturber of your people; and lo, I have examined him before you, and I find in the man no crime, among all that ye charge upon him.

¹⁴ and said to them: Ye have brought this man before me, as a disturber of your people; and lo, I have examined him before you, and I find in the man no crime, among all that ye charge upon him. ¹⁵ Neither yet Herod: for I sent him to him, and lo, nothing deserving death hath been done by him. ¹⁶ I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

²⁰ And Pilate, being disposed to release Jesus, conversed with them again.

²² And he said to them the third time: But, what evil hath he done? I find no crime in him deserving of death. I will scourge him, therefore, and release him. ²³ But they were urgent, with a loud voice; and demanded of him, that they might crucify him.

²⁷ And there followed after him a great multitude of people; and those women also who wailed and lamented over him.

³⁵ And the people stood and looked on; and the rulers also derided him, and said: He quickened others; let him quicken himself, if he is the Messiah, the chosen of God.

³⁷ and saying to him: If thou art the king of the Jews, quicken thyself. ³⁸ And there was likewise a superscription over him, written in Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

⁴¹ And we justly; for we have a retribution according to our deserts, and according to our deeds; but nothing hateful hath been done by him. ⁴² And he said to Jesus: My Lord, remember me, when thou comest into thy kingdom.

⁴⁷ And when the centurion saw what occurred, he glorified God and said: Certainly, this was a righteous man. ⁴⁸ And all the multitudes who had assembled at this spectacle, on seeing what occurred, returned, smiting upon their breasts. ⁴⁹ And there were standing at a distance, all they that knew Jesus, and those women who came with him from Galilee; and they beheld these things.

⁵⁵ And those women who came with him from Galilee, approached, and viewed the sepulchre, and the manner in which the body was deposited.

¹ And on the first day of the week, in the morning, while it was yet dark, they came to the sepulchre, and brought the aromatics they had prepared. And there were other women with them.

⁷ and said, That the Son of man was to be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and to rise on the third day.

²⁶ Were not these things to be; that the Messiah should suffer and that he should enter into his glory?

⁴³ The next day, Jesus was disposed to depart for Galilee: and he found Philip and said to him, Come after me.

⁴⁹ Nathaniel answered, and said to him: Rabbi; thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

¹¹ This is the first sign, which Jesus wrought at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory: and his disciples believed on him.

¹⁴ And as Moses elevated the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up:

⁴¹ Others said: He is the Messiah. Others said: Doth Messiah come from Galilee?

⁵² They answered, and said to him: Art thou also from Galilee? Search, and see, that no prophet ariseth from Galilee.

³³ And this he said, to show by what manner of death, he was to die. ³⁴ The multitude said to him: We have heard from the law, that the Messiah abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, that the Son of man is to be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

³ And if I go to prepare for you a place, I will come again and take you to myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

⁶ And if a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a withered branch; and they gather it up, and cast it into the fire to be burned.

²² If I had not come and discoursed with them, sin would not have been to them; but now there is no excuse for their sins. ²³ He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. ²⁴ If I had not wrought before them works which no other person ever did, sin would not have been to them: but now they have seen, and have hated, both me and my Father;

²⁴ Father, I desire that those whom thou hast given me, may also be with me where I am; that they may see that glory of mine which thou hast given me, as thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

²⁸ And they led Jesus from the presence of Caiaphas unto the Praetorium; and it was morning. But they did not enter the Praetorium, lest they should defile themselves before they had eaten the passover. ²⁹ And Pilate went forth to them without, and said to them: What accusation have ye against this man? ³⁰ They replied, and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we should not have delivered him up to thee.

³⁰ They replied, and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we should not have delivered him up to thee. ³¹ Pilate said to them: Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews said to him: It is not lawful for us to put a man to death: ³² that the speech of Jesus might be fulfilled, when he made known by what death he was to die.

³² that the speech of Jesus might be fulfilled, when he made known by what death he was to die. ³³ And Pilate went into the Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

³³ And Pilate went into the Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews? ³⁴ Jesus said to him: Sayest thou this of thyself, or have others said it to thee of me?

³⁴ Jesus said to him: Sayest thou this of thyself, or have others said it to thee of me? ³⁵ Pilate said to him: Am I a Jew? Thy countrymen and the chief priests have delivered thee to me. What hast thou done?

³⁵ Pilate said to him: Am I a Jew? Thy countrymen and the chief priests have delivered thee to me. What hast thou done? ³⁶ Jesus said to him: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have fought, that I might not be delivered up to the Jews: but now, my kingdom is not from hence.

³⁶ Jesus said to him: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have fought, that I might not be delivered up to the Jews: but now, my kingdom is not from hence. ³⁷ Pilate said to him: Then thou art a king? Jesus said to him: Thou hast said, that I am a king. For this was I born; and for this came I into the world, that I might bear testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice.

³⁷ Pilate said to him: Then thou art a king? Jesus said to him: Thou hast said, that I am a king. For this was I born; and for this came I into the world, that I might bear testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice. ³⁸ Pilate said to him: What is the truth? And as he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them: I find not any crime in him.

³⁸ Pilate said to him: What is the truth? And as he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them: I find not any crime in him. ³⁹ And ye have a custom that I should release one to you at the passover; will ye, therefore, that I release to you this king of the Jews?

³⁹ And ye have a custom that I should release one to you at the passover; will ye, therefore, that I release to you this king of the Jews? ⁴⁰ And they all cried out, and said: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now this Barabbas was a robber.

⁴⁰ And they all cried out, and said: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now this Barabbas was a robber.

¹ Then Pilate scourged Jesus.

¹ Then Pilate scourged Jesus. ² And the soldiers braided a crown of thorns, and put it on his head; and they clothed him in purple garments: ³ and they said: Hail, king of the Jews! and smote him on his cheeks.

³ and they said: Hail, king of the Jews! and smote him on his cheeks. ⁴ And Pilate went out again, and said to them: Lo, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find against him no offence whatever.

⁴ And Pilate went out again, and said to them: Lo, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find against him no offence whatever.

⁴ And Pilate went out again, and said to them: Lo, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find against him no offence whatever. ⁵ And Jesus went forth, having on him the crown of thorns, and the purple garments. And Pilate said to them: Behold, the man!

⁵ And Jesus went forth, having on him the crown of thorns, and the purple garments. And Pilate said to them: Behold, the man! ⁶ And when the chief priests and officials saw him, they cried out, and said: Hang him; hang him. Pilate said to them: Take ye him, and crucify him; for I find no offence in him. ⁷ The Jews say to him: We have a law, and, according to our law, he deserveth death, because he made himself the Son of God.

¹¹ Jesus said to him: Thou wouldst have no authority at all over me, if it were not given to thee from on high: therefore his sin who delivered me up to thee, is greater than thine. ¹² And for this reason, Pilate was disposed to release him. But the Jews cried out: If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar's friend: for whoever maketh himself a king, is the adversary of Caesar.

¹⁴ And it was the preparation for the passover; and it was about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews: Behold, your king. ¹⁵ But they cried out: Away with him, away with him; hang him, hang him. Pilate said to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests said to him: We have no king, but Caesar.

¹⁵ But they cried out: Away with him, away with him; hang him, hang him. Pilate said to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests said to him: We have no king, but Caesar. ¹⁶ Then he delivered him to them, that they might crucify him. And they took Jesus, and led him away,

¹⁶ Then he delivered him to them, that they might crucify him. And they took Jesus, and led him away, ¹⁷ bearing his cross, to a place called a Skull, and in Hebrew called Golgotha;

¹⁷ bearing his cross, to a place called a Skull, and in Hebrew called Golgotha; ¹⁸ where they crucified him; and two others with him, the one on this side, and the other on that, and Jesus in the middle.

¹⁸ where they crucified him; and two others with him, the one on this side, and the other on that, and Jesus in the middle. ¹⁹ And Pilate also wrote a tablet, and affixed it to his cross. And thus it was written: THIS IS JESUS THE NAZAREAN, KING OF THE JEWS.

¹⁹ And Pilate also wrote a tablet, and affixed it to his cross. And thus it was written: THIS IS JESUS THE NAZAREAN, KING OF THE JEWS. ²⁰ And many of the Jews read this label; because the place where Jesus was crucified, was near to Jerusalem; and it was written in Hebrew and Greek and Latin.

²⁰ And many of the Jews read this label; because the place where Jesus was crucified, was near to Jerusalem; and it was written in Hebrew and Greek and Latin. ²¹ And the chief priests said to Pilate: Write not that he is king of the Jews, but that he said I am king of the Jews.

²¹ And the chief priests said to Pilate: Write not that he is king of the Jews, but that he said I am king of the Jews.

²¹ And the chief priests said to Pilate: Write not that he is king of the Jews, but that he said I am king of the Jews. ²² Pilate said: What I have written, I have written.

²² Pilate said: What I have written, I have written. ²³ And the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parcels of them, a parcel for each of the soldiers. And his tunic was without seam from the top, woven throughout.

²³ And the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parcels of them, a parcel for each of the soldiers. And his tunic was without seam from the top, woven throughout. ²⁴ And they said one to another: We will not rend it, but will cast the lot upon it, whose it shall he. And the scripture was fulfilled, which said: They divided my garments among them; and upon my venture they cast the lot. These things did the soldiers.

²⁴ And they said one to another: We will not rend it, but will cast the lot upon it, whose it shall he. And the scripture was fulfilled, which said: They divided my garments among them; and upon my venture they cast the lot. These things did the soldiers. ²⁵ And there were standing near the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, and Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalena. ²⁶ And Jesus saw his mother, and that disciple whom he loved, standing by, and he said to his mother: Woman, behold, thy son. ²⁷ And he said to that disciple: Behold, thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her near himself. ²⁸ After these things, Jesus knew that every thing was finished; and, that the scripture might be fulfilled, he said: I thirst. ²⁹ And a vessel was standing there, full of vinegar. And they filled a sponge with the vinegar, and put it on a hyssop stalk, and bore it to his mouth. ³⁰ And when Jesus had received the vinegar, he said: Lo; Done. And he bowed his head, and yielded up his spirit.

³⁰ And when Jesus had received the vinegar, he said: Lo; Done. And he bowed his head, and yielded up his spirit. ³¹ And because it was the preparation, the Jews said: These bodies must not remain all night upon the cross: because the sabbath was dawning; and the day of that sabbath was a great day. And they requested of Pilate, that they should break the legs of those crucified, and take them down.

³⁸ After these things, Joseph of Ramath, (for he was a disciple of Jesus, and kept concealed through fear of the Jews,) requested of Pilate, that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate permitted. And he came, and bore away the body of Jesus. ³⁹ And there came also Nicodemus, (he who previously came to Jesus by night,) and he brought with him a compound of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds. ⁴⁰ and they bore away the body of Jesus, and wound it in linens and aromatics, as it is the custom of the Jews to bury. ⁴¹ And there was a garden in the place where Jesus was crucified, and in the garden a new sepulchre in which no person had ever been laid. ⁴² And there they laid Jesus, because the sabbath had commenced, and because the sepulchre was near.

⁴² And there they laid Jesus, because the sabbath had commenced, and because the sepulchre was near.

²⁸ And Thomas answered, and said to him: My Lord, and my God!

¹⁰ and those from the region of Phrygia, and of Pamphylia, and of Egypt, and of the parts of Lybia near Cyrene, and those who have come from Rome, Jews and proselytes;

²⁰ And the sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and fearful day of the Lord come.

²³ him, being hereto appointed by the prescience and the good pleasure of God, ye have delivered into the hands of the wicked; and have crucified and slain.

³⁷ And when they heard these things, they were agitated in their heart; and they said to Simon and to the rest of the legates: Brethren, what shall we do?

¹⁴ But ye denied the holy and just One, and demanded that a murderer should be released to you.

¹⁷ And now, my brethren, I know that through misapprehensions ye did this, as did also your chiefs:

²⁷ For, in reality, against thy holy Son Jesus whom thou hast anointed, Herod and Pilate, with the Gentiles and the congregation of Israel, have been combined together in this city,

²⁷ For, in reality, against thy holy Son Jesus whom thou hast anointed, Herod and Pilate, with the Gentiles and the congregation of Israel, have been combined together in this city, ²⁸ to do whatever thy hand and thy pleasure previously marked out to be done.

³⁰ The God of our fathers hath raised up that Jesus, whom ye slew when ye hanged him on a tree.

³³ And when they heard these things, they burned with indignation, and thought of putting them to death.

³⁷ And after him, rose up Judas a Galilean, in the days when the people were enrolled for the capitation tax; and he seduced much people after him. And he died, and all they that went after him were dispersed.

⁴⁰ And they called the legates, and scourged them, and commanded them not to teach in the name of Jesus, and dismissed them. ⁴¹ And they went from before them, rejoicing that they were worthy to suffer abuse on account of that name.

⁶ These stood before the legates; and when they had prayed, they laid the hand on them.

⁹ And there rose up some of the synagogue which is called that of the freed men, Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and persons from Cilicia and from Asia; and they disputed with Stephen.

⁵⁴ And when they heard these things, they were filled with rage in their souls; and they gnashed their teeth against him.

⁵⁷ And they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and all rushed upon him.

⁵⁹ And they stoned Stephen, while he prayed and said: Our Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. ⁶⁰ And when he had kneeled down, he cried with a loud voice, and said: Our Lord, establish not this sin against them. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

¹⁹ saying: Give me also this prerogative, that he on whom I impose a hand, may receive the Holy Spirit.

³² And the section of scripture in which he was reading, was this: As a lamb to the slaughter he was led away, and as a sheep before the shearer is silent, so also he in his humility opened not his mouth.

² And he was righteous, and feared God, he and all his house; and he did much alms among the people, and prayed to God at all times.

²² They say to him: A certain man whose name is Cornelius, a centurion fearing God, and of whom all the people of the Jews bear good report, was told in vision, by a holy angel, to send and bring thee to his house, that he might hear discourse from thee.

³⁷ and ye also know the word, which was in all Judaea, which commenced from Galilee, after the baptism that John preached,

²⁴ For he was a good man, and was full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith. And many people were added to our Lord.

¹ Now there were in the church at Antioch, several prophets and teachers; Barnabas, and Simon called Niger, and Lucius who was from the city Cyrene, and Menaen, a son of the guardians of Herod the Tetrarch, and Saul.

²⁸ And while they found no ground for his death, they desired of Pilate that they might kill him. ²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning him, they took him down from the cross, and laid him in a sepulchre.

²⁰ and set them before the prefects and chiefs of the city, and said: These men disturb our city; for they are Jews, ²¹ and they preach to us customs, which it is not lawful for us to receive and to practise, because we are Romans.

³¹ And they said to him: Believe on the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah, and thou wilt have life, thou and thy house.

³⁷ But Paul said to him: They have scourged us, unoffending men, and Romans, before all the world, and have cast us into prison; and now, do they secretly let us out? No, surely: but let them come themselves and bring us out.

⁶ And when they found them not there, they drew Jason and the brethren who were there, and brought them before the chiefs of the city, crying out: These are they who have terrified all the country; and lo, they have come hither also: ⁷ and this Jason is their entertainer: and they all resist the commands of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus.

²¹ while I testified to Jews and to Gentiles, as to repentance towards God and faith in our Lord Jesus Messiah.

³⁶ For a great many people followed after him, and cried out, saying: Away with him.

²² And when they had heard Paul as far as this sentence, they raised their voice, and cried out: Away with such a man from the earth! for he ought not to live!

¹⁰ And, as there was great commotion among them, the Chiliarch was afraid lest they should tear Paul in pieces. And he sent Romans, to go and pluck him from their midst, and bring him into the castle.

⁵ For we have found this man to be an assassin, and a mover of sedition among all Jews in the whole land: for he is a ringleader of the sect of the Nazareans.

¹³ Nor have they the power to prove, before thee, the things of which they now accuse me.

²⁰ And the entrance given to the law, was that sin might increase: and where sin increased, there grace abounded. ²¹ So that, as sin had reigned in death, so grace might reign in righteousness unto life eternal, by means of our Lord Jesus Messiah.

⁹ And if thou shalt confess with thy mouth our Lord Jesus, and shalt believe with thy heart, that God hath raised him from the dead; thou shalt live. ¹⁰ For the heart that believeth in him, is justified; and the mouth that confesseth him, is restored to life. ¹¹ For the scripture saith: Every one that believeth in him, shall not be ashamed. ¹² And in this, it discriminateth neither Jews nor Gentiles. For there is one Lord over them all, who is rich, towards every one that calleth on him. ¹³ For every one that shall call on the name of the Lord, will have life. ¹⁴ How then shall they call on him, in whom they have not believed? Or, how shall they believe in him, of whom they have not heard? Or, how shall they hear, without a preacher?

¹⁴ Bless your persecutors: bless, and curse not.

⁸ which no one of the potentates of this world knew; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

¹² and we toil, working with our own hands: they defame us, and we bless: they persecute us, and we endure it:

¹⁰ nor the avaricious, nor thieves, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners, will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And these things have been in some of you: but ye are washed, and are sanctified, and made righteous, in the name of our Lord Jesus the Messiah, and by the Spirit of our God.

⁸ therefore we are confident, and desirous to be away from the body, and to be with our Lord.

³ And I knew this same man; (but whether in a body, or out of a body, I know not; God knoweth;) ⁴ and he was caught up to Paradise, and heard ineffable words, which it is not permitted a man to utter.

¹³ But the Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, and hath been a curse for us; (for it is written, Cursed is everyone that is hanged on a tree;)

¹⁴ For he is himself our peace, who hath made the two become one, and hath demolished the wall which stood in the midst, and the enmity, by his flesh; ¹⁵ and by his prescriptions he hath abolished the law of ordinances; that, in himself, he might make the two to be one new man; and he hath made peace, ¹⁶ and hath reconciled both with God, in one body, and hath slain the enmity by his cross. ¹⁷ And he came, and proclaimed peace to you afar off, and to those near: ¹⁸ because, by him there is access for us both, by one Spirit, unto the Father.

¹¹ And have no commerce with the works of darkness which are unfruitful, but reprove them.

²³ For the two press upon me: I desire to be liberated, that I may be with the Messiah; and this would be very advantageous to me.

¹³ me I say, who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and a reviler; but I obtained mercy, because I did it while ignorant and without faith.

¹⁵ Faithful is the declaration, and worthy to be received, that Jesus the Messiah came into the world to give life to sinners, of whom I was the primary. ¹⁶ But for this cause had he mercy on me, that in me first Jesus the Messiah might display all his long suffering, for an example to them who were to believe on him unto life eternal.

¹³ I charge thee, before God, who quickeneth all, and before Jesus the Messiah who attested a good testimony before Pontius Pilate,

⁸ But if it should put forth thorns and briers, it would have reprobation, and be not far from a curse, and its end would be a burning.

¹⁹ which is to us as an anchor, that retaineth our soul, so that it swerveth not; and it entereth into that within the veil,

²⁵ and he is able to vivify for ever, them who come to God by him; for he always liveth, and sendeth up prayers for them. ²⁶ For, a priest like to him, was also suitable for us; one pure, and without evil and without stain; one separated from sins, and exalted higher than heaven;

³ But the inner tabernacle, which was within the second veil, was called the Holy of Holies. ⁴ And there were in it the golden censer and the ark of the covenant, which was all over laid with gold; and in it were the golden urn which contained the manna and the rod of Aaron which sprouted, and the tables of the covenant; ⁵ and over it were the cherubim of glory, which overshadowed the mercy seat. But there is not time to speak particularly of each of the things which were so arranged. ⁶ And into the outer tabernacle the priests, at all times, entered, and performed their ministration. ⁷ But into the interior tabernacle, once a year only, the high priest entered, with the blood which he offered for himself and for the sins of the people. ⁸ And by this the Holy Spirit indicated, that the way to the holy places was not yet manifested, so long as the first tabernacle was standing:

¹⁹ We have therefore, my brethren, assurance in entering into the sanctuary, by the blood of Jesus, and by a way of life, ²⁰ which he hath now consecrated for us, through the veil, that is his flesh. ²¹ And we have a high priest over the house of God. ²² Let us, therefore draw near, with a true heart, and with the confidence of faith, being sprinkled as to our hearts, and pure from an evil conscience, and our body being washed with pure water.

² And let us look on Jesus, who hath become the commencement and the completion of our faith; who, on account of the joy there was for him, endured the cross, and surrendered himself to opprobrium; and is seated on the right hand of the throne of God.

¹² For this reason, Jesus also, that he might sanctify his people with his blood, suffered without the city. ¹³ Therefore, let us also go forth to him, without the camp, clothed with his reproach:

⁷ Subject yourselves therefore to God; and stand firm against Satan, and he will flee from you.

¹¹ And they searched for the time which the Spirit of the Messiah dwelling in them did show and testify, when the sufferings of the Messiah were to occur, and his subsequent glory.

¹⁹ but with the precious blood of that Lamb in which is no spot nor blemish, namely, the Messiah:

⁴ to whom ye have come, because he is a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but with God elect and precious.

⁶ For it is said in the scripture, Behold, in Zion I lay a chosen and precious stone, for the head of the corner; and whoever believeth in him, will not be ashamed. ⁷ On you therefore who believe, is this honor conferred: but to them who believe not,

²⁰ But they who endure afflictions on account of their offences, what praise have they? But if, when ye do well, they vex you, and ye endure it; then great is your praise with God. ²¹ For unto this were ye called; because the Messiah also died for us, and left us this pattern, that ye should walk in his steps. ²² He did no sin; neither was guile found in his mouth.

²² He did no sin; neither was guile found in his mouth. ²³ When he was reviled, be reviled not; and he suffered and threatened not, but committed his cause to the Judge of righteousness.

²³ When he was reviled, be reviled not; and he suffered and threatened not, but committed his cause to the Judge of righteousness. ²⁴ And he took away all our sins, and, in his body, lifted them to the cross; that we, when dead to sin, might live by his righteousness: for by his wounds, ye are healed.

⁹ And that ye recompense to no one evil for evil, neither railing for railing; but, in contrariety to these, that ye bless: for to this were ye called, that ye might inherit a blessing.

¹⁶ in meekness and respect, as having a good conscience; so that they who speak against you as bad men, may be ashamed, for having calumniated your good conduct in the Messiah. ¹⁷ For it is profitable to you, that ye suffer evil while ye do good deeds, if this should be the pleasure of God; and not, while ye do evil deeds. ¹⁸ For the Messiah also once died for our sins, the righteous for sinners; that he might bring you to God. And he died in body, but lived in spirit.

¹⁸ For the Messiah also once died for our sins, the righteous for sinners; that he might bring you to God. And he died in body, but lived in spirit.

¹⁷ For it is the time when judgment will commence with the house of God: and if it commence with us, what will be the end of those who obey not the gospel of God? ¹⁸ And if the righteous scarcely liveth, where will the ungodly and the sinner be found!

⁸ And if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. ⁹ But if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous, to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all our iniquity.

¹ Whoever believeth that Jesus is the Messiah, is born of God. And whoever loveth the begetter, loveth him also that is begotten of him.

¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us life eternal, and this life is in his Son. ¹² Every one that taketh hold of the Son, taketh hold of life; and every one that taketh not hold of the Son, hath not life. ¹³ These things have I written to you, that ye may know that ye have life eternal, ye who believe in the name of the Son of God.

¹² These are they who, in their feastings, riot while polluting themselves, feeding themselves without fear; clouds without rain, moved about by the winds; trees whose fruit hath failed, and they are without fruit, twice dead, and uplifted from their root;

⁷ He that hath ears, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him who is victorious, will I give to eat of the tree of life which is in the paradise of my God.

¹⁶ and they said to the mountains and to the clefts, Fall over us, and hide us from the face of him who sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

⁶ And in those days, men will desire death, and will not find it; and they will long to die, and death will fly from them.

⁴ Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? Because thou only art holy and just: Because all nations shall come and worship before thee, since thy righteousnesses have been revealed.

¹¹ and they blasphemed the God of heaven, on account of their pains and their ulcers, and did not repent of their deeds.

¹³ They have one mind; and they will give their power and authority unto the beast of prey. ¹⁴ They will make war upon the Lamb; and the Lamb will vanquish them; because he is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and these with him are called and chosen and faithful.
