²⁶ The woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast out the demon from her daughter. ²⁷ And he said to her, Let the children be filled first; for it is not well to take the childrens bread and throw it to the little dogs. ²⁸ But she answered, and saith to him, Yea, Lord; even the little dogs under the table eat of the childrens crumbs. ²⁹ And he said to her, For this saying go thy way; the demon hath gone out of thy daughter.

³⁷ And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

¹¹ And the Pharisees came out, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, trying him.

¹⁵ And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and the leaven of Herod.

²⁵ Then he again put his hands on his eyes, and he saw clearly, and was restored, and saw all things distinctly.

³¹ And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days rise again;

³³ But he turning about and looking at his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith, Get thee behind me, Satan! for thy thoughts are not on the things of God, but on those of men. ³⁴ And calling the multitude to him with his disciples also, he said to them, Whoever chooseth to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. ³⁵ For whoever chooseth to save his life, will lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for the sake of me and of the glad tidings, will save it.

³⁸ For whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will also the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

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

²⁵ And Jesus seeing that the multitude came running together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

²⁸ And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast it out?

³¹ For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he hath been put to death, after three days he will rise again.

³³ And they came to Capernaum; and having come into the house, he asked them, About what were ye disputing on the road?

³³ And they came to Capernaum; and having come into the house, he asked them, About what were ye disputing on the road? ³⁴ But they were silent; for on the road they had been disputing with one another, who was greatest. ³⁵ And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them, If any one desire to be first, he will be last of all, and servant of all.

³⁵ And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them, If any one desire to be first, he will be last of all, and servant of all. ³⁶ And he took a child, and placed him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them,

³⁶ And he took a child, and placed him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them,

³⁸ John said to him, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in thy name who followeth not us; and we forbade him, because he did not follow us.

¹⁵ Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a child, will not enter therein.

³⁶ And he said to them, What would ye that I should do for you?

⁴⁸ And many sharply bade him be silent; but he cried out the more, Son of David, have pity on me!

⁵¹ And Jesus answering said to him, What dost thou wish me to do for thee? The blind man said to him, My master, to restore my sight.

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

²⁸ And one of the scribes came up, having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which commandment is first of all? ²⁹ Jesus answered, The first is, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord; ³⁰ and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength." ³¹ The second is this: "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." There is no other commandment greater than these. ³² And the scribe said to him, In truth, Teacher, thou hast well said, that He is one, and that there is no other but he; ³³ and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love ones neighbor as ones self, is more than all the whole burntofferings and the sacrifices. ³⁴ And Jesus, perceiving that he answered wisely, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And after this no one dared to question him.

¹⁹ For those days will be a time of distress, such as hath not been from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, nor shall be.

³¹ But he spoke the more vehemently: If I must die with thee, I will not deny thee. And so also said they all.

³³ And he taketh with him Peter and James and John; and began to be in great consternation and anguish.

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

⁶³ Then the highpriest rent his garments, and said, What further need have we of witnesses? ⁶⁴ Ye have heard the blasphemy; what think ye? And they all condemned him as deserving the punishment of death. ⁶⁵ And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face and buffet him, and say to him, Prophesy! And the officers, with blows, took him in charge.

¹ And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests, having held a consultation with the elders and the scribes, and the whole council, bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.

¹⁷ And they clothe him with purple, and having platted a crown of thorns, they put it on him. ¹⁸ And they began to salute him: Hail, king of the Jews! ¹⁹ And they struck him on the head with a reed, and spit upon him, and kneeling down, did him homage. ²⁰ And after they had made sport of him, they stripped him of the purple robe, and put his own garments on him. And they lead him out to crucify him.

²⁹ And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ha! thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it up in three days, ³⁰ save thyself, and come down from the cross. ³¹ In like manner also the chief priests, with the scribes, making sport among themselves, said, He saved others, cannot he save himself?

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

³⁷ For nothing will be impossible with God.

²⁸ he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said, ²⁹ Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word; ³⁰ for mine eyes have seen thy salvation, ³¹ which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples; ³² a light to enlighten the gentiles, and to be the glory of thy people Israel. ³³ And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him. ³⁴ And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that will be spoken against;

¹⁶ And he came to Nazara, where he had been brought up, and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbathday; and stood up to read.

³⁰ And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with the publicans and sinners?

⁷ And the scribes and the Pharisees were watching whether he would heal on the sabbath, that they might find an accusation against him.

²⁹ And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John. ³⁰ But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.

³⁰ But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on. ⁴¹ A certain moneylender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty. ⁴² When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most? ⁴³ Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly. ⁴⁴ And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair. ⁴⁵ No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet. ⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment. ⁴⁷ Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.

⁵⁰ But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

² and certain women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons, ³ and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herods steward, and Susanna, and many others, who afforded them aid from their substance.

²² saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be put to death, and rise again on the third day. ²³ And he said to all, If any one chooseth to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

⁴⁸ and said to them, Whoever receiveth this child in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth him who sent me. For he that is least among you all, he is great.

⁵¹ And it came to pass, when the time was near for his being received up, that he himself steadily set his face to go to Jerusalem.

⁵⁴ And the disciples James and John, on seeing it, said, Lord, wilt thou have us bid fire come down from heaven, and consume them? ⁵⁵ But he turned and rebuked them. ⁵⁶ And they went to another village.

²³ And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye are seeing.

²⁵ And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life? ²⁶ And he said to him, What is written in the Law? How readest thou? ²⁷ And he answering said "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself." ²⁸ And he said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this, and thou shalt live. ²⁹ But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

⁴² But one thing is needful. For Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

⁵ And he said to them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and say to him Friend, lend me three loaves; ⁶ for a friend of mine hath come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him? ⁷ And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not; the door is now shut, and I and my children are in bed; I cannot rise and give thee. ⁸ I say to you, though he will not rise and give him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth. ⁹ And I say to you, Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and ye will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. ¹⁰ For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, the door will be opened.

³⁹ But the Lord said to him, Now ye Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inside is full of rapacity and wickedness.

⁵³ And as he came out thence, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be very spiteful, and to press him to speak off hand about many things, ⁵⁴ lying in wait to catch something out of his mouth.

¹⁵ And he said to them, Take heed and beware of all covetousness; for even when one hath great abundance, his life doth not depend upon his possessions. ¹⁶ And he spoke a parable to them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully. ¹⁷ And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do? for I have not where to store my crops. ¹⁸ And he said, This will I do; I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I store all my crops and my goods; ¹⁹ and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, be merry. ²⁰ But God said to him, Fool! this night will thy soul he required of thee; and whose will those things be which thou hast laid up? ²¹ So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich towards God.

³³ Sell what ye have, and give alms. Make for yourselves purses which wax not old, treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, nor moth destroyeth.

⁵⁰ But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how is my soul troubled, till it be accomplished!

²³ And one said to him, Lord, are there few that are to be saved? And he said to them,

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

¹¹ For every one that exalteth himself will be humbled; and he that humbleth himself will be exalted.

³³ So likewise, whoever of you doth not forsake all that he hath, cannot be my disciple.

⁹ And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends with the unrighteous mammon; that, when it faileth, ye may be received into everlasting habitations.

¹⁴ And the Pharisees, who were covetous, heard all this, and they derided him.

¹⁸ Whoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery; and he who marrieth a woman that hath been put away from her husband, committeth adultery.

²⁰ And a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores,

²² And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to the bosom of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.

¹ And he spoke a parable to them to show that they ought to pray always, and not be fainthearted: ² saying, There was in a certain city a judge, who feared not God, nor regarded man. ³ And there was a widow in that city; and she kept coming to him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary! ⁴ And he would not for some time. But afterward he said within himself, Though I neither fear God, nor regard man, ⁵ yet, because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her; lest by coming for ever she weary me out. ⁶ And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. ⁷ And will not God avenge his chosen, who cry to him day and night, though he be slow to punish in their behalf? ⁸ I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. But yet, when the Son of man cometh, will he find faith on the earth?

¹¹ The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself thus: O God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

¹¹ The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself thus: O God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. ¹² I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I gain.

¹² I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I gain. ¹³ But the publican, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven; but smote his breast, saying, O God, be merciful to me a sinner! ¹⁴ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one that exalteth himself will be humbled; but he that humbleth himself will be exalted.

¹⁴ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one that exalteth himself will be humbled; but he that humbleth himself will be exalted. ¹⁵ And they brought to him infants also, that he might touch them; and the disciples, on seeing it, rebuked them.

¹⁵ And they brought to him infants also, that he might touch them; and the disciples, on seeing it, rebuked them. ¹⁶ But Jesus called them to him, saying, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.

¹⁶ But Jesus called them to him, saying, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for to such belongeth the kingdom of God. ¹⁷ Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will not enter therein.

¹⁷ Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will not enter therein. ¹⁸ And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life? ¹⁹ And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God.

¹⁹ And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God. ²⁰ Thou knowest the commandments: "Do not commit adultery; Do not kill; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Honor thy father and thy mother."

²⁰ Thou knowest the commandments: "Do not commit adultery; Do not kill; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Honor thy father and thy mother." ²¹ And he said, All these have I kept from my youth. ²² And Jesus hearing this said to him, One thing thou still lackest: sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.

²² And Jesus hearing this said to him, One thing thou still lackest: sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me. ²³ But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful; for he was very rich.

²³ But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful; for he was very rich. ²⁴ And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly do they that have riches enter the kingdom of God!

²⁴ And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly do they that have riches enter the kingdom of God! ²⁵ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

²⁵ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. ²⁶ And those who heard this said, Who then can be saved?

²⁶ And those who heard this said, Who then can be saved?

²⁶ And those who heard this said, Who then can be saved? ²⁷ But he said, What is impossible with men is possible with God.

²⁷ But he said, What is impossible with men is possible with God.

²⁷ But he said, What is impossible with men is possible with God. ²⁸ Then Peter said, Lo! we left what we had, and followed thee. ²⁹ And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There is no one that hath left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, ³⁰ who will not receive many fold more in the present time, and in the world to come everlasting life.

³⁰ who will not receive many fold more in the present time, and in the world to come everlasting life. ³¹ And taking the twelve aside, he said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that hath been written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished.

³¹ And taking the twelve aside, he said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that hath been written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished. ³² For he will be delivered up to the gentiles, and will be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon;

³² For he will be delivered up to the gentiles, and will be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon; ³³ and they will scourge him, and put him to death; and the third day he will rise again.

³³ and they will scourge him, and put him to death; and the third day he will rise again. ³⁴ And they understood none of these things; and the meaning of these words was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what was said. ³⁵ And it came to pass, as he drew near to Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting by the wayside begging. ³⁶ And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what this meant. ³⁷ And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.

³⁹ And they who went before sharply bade him hold his peace. But he cried out the more, Son of David, have pity on me! ⁴⁰ And Jesus stopped, and ordered him to be brought to him. And when he had come near, he asked him, ⁴¹ What dost thou wish me to do for thee? And he said, Lord, to restore my sight. ⁴² And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee. ⁴³ And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, giving glory to God; and all the people on seeing it gave praise to God.

⁴¹ And when he came near, as he beheld the city, he wept over it,

²⁴ And there arose also a contention among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. ²⁵ And he said to them, The kings of the nations rule as lords over them, and they who exercise authority over them are called benefactors. ²⁶ But it is not to be so with you; but let the greatest among you be as the youngest; and he that is chief, as he that serveth. ²⁷ For which is greater? he who reclineth at the table, or he who serveth? Is not he that reclineth at the table? But I am in the midst of you as he who serveth. ²⁸ Ye however are they who have continued steadfastly with me in my trials. ²⁹ And I appoint to you a kingdom, as my Father appointed to me; ³⁰ that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

⁴² saying, Father, if thou art willing to remove this cup from meyet not my will, but thine be done!

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him; ⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him, they asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee? ⁶⁵ And many other things did they scoffingly say against him.

¹ And the whole assemblage of them arose, and carried him before Pilate. ² And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Christ, the king.

¹¹ And Herod also with his guard of soldiers set him at nought and mocked him, and having arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, sent him back to Pilate.

²¹ But they cried out, saying, Crucify, crucify him!

³⁵ And the people stood looking on; and the rulers sneered, saying, Others he saved; let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, the chosen one. ³⁶ And the soldiers also came up to him and made sport of him, offering him vinegar, ³⁷ and saying, If thou art the king of the Jews, save thyself. ³⁸ There was also an inscription over him: "This is the king of the Jews." ³⁹ And one of the crucified malefactors railed at him, saying, Art thou not the Christ? save thyself and us.

⁶ He is not here, but hath risen. Remember how be spoke to you while yet in Galilee, ⁷ saying, The Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinners, and be crucified, and rise again on the third day.

²⁶ Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things, and enter into his glory?

⁵⁰ And he led them out as far as to Bethany; and he lifted up his hands and blessed them. ⁵¹ And it came to pass, while he blessed them, that he parted from them.

¹⁷ For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

⁴⁶ And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see.

¹⁰ and said to him, Every man setteth on the good wine first, and when men have drunk freely, that which is worse. Thou hast kept the good wine until now.

² This man came to him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come as a teacher from God; for no one can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him. ³ Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. ⁴ Nicodemus saith to him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mothers womb a second time, and be born? ⁵ Jesus answered, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.

⁵ Jesus answered, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. ⁶ That which is born of the flesh, is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.

³⁹ Ye search the Scriptures, because ye yourselves think that in them ye have everlasting life; and it is they which testify of me;

⁴¹ I receive not honor from men; ⁴² but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. ⁴³ I have come in my Fathers name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will receive. ⁴⁴ How can ye believe while ye receive honor from one another, and seek not the honor that is from him who alone is God?

²⁷ Labor not for the food that perisheth, but for the food that endureth to everlasting life, which the Son of man giveth to you; for on him hath the Father set his seal, even God. ²⁸ Then they said to him, What are we to do, that we may work the works of God?

⁴⁰ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who looketh on the Son and believeth in him, shall have everlasting life; and I will raise him up in the last day.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This teaching is hard; who can listen to it?

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude thus debating concerning him; and the chief priest and the Pharisees sent officers to seize him.

⁴¹ Others said, Doth the Christ then come from Galilee?

⁴⁸ Hath any one of the rulers believed in him? or of the Pharisees?

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

⁶ But this they said to try him, that they might be able to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.

⁵ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. ⁶ Having thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay, ⁷ and said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam; (which is, when translated, Sent.) He went away therefore, and washed and came seeing. ⁸ The neighbors therefore, and they who before had seen him as a beggar, said, Is not this he that sits and begs?

³² Since the world began, it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind.

³⁹ And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world; that they who see not might see, and that they who see might become blind.

¹⁵ even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I give my life for the sheep.

²³ and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomons porch.

⁴⁰ And he went away again beyond the Jordan, to the place where John was at first baptizing; and there he abode.

⁷ Then after this he saith to the disciples, Let us go into Judaea again. ⁸ The disciples say to him, Rabbi, the Jews but just now were seeking to stone thee, and goest thou thither again?

¹⁶ Then said Thomas, who was called Didymus, to his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

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

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

⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders, that, if any one knew where he was, he should give information, that they might seize him.

²⁶ If any one be a servant to me, let him follow me; and where I am, there also will my servant be; if any one serve me, the Father will honor him.

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

¹⁴ If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one anothers feet. ¹⁵ For I have given you an example, that ye also should do as I have done to you. ¹⁶ Truly, truly do I say to you, A servant is not greater than his lord, nor one who is sent greater than he that sent him. ¹⁷ If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. ¹⁸ I speak not of you all; I know whom I chose; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, "He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted up his heel against me."

³³ My children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye will seek me; and, as I said to the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come, so now I say to you.

³⁷ Peter saith to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.

⁷ If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever ye will, and it shall be done for you.

²⁰ Remember what I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my words, they will keep yours also.

²² So ye also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one taketh from you. ²³ And in that day ye will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly do I say to you, Whatever ye shall ask the Father, he will give it you in my name.

³³ These things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye have tribulation; but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

² according as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that he should give everlasting life to all whom thou hast given him.

¹⁴ I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

²⁴ Father! as to that which thou hast given me, I desire that they also be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me; for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

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

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

²⁸ Then they lead Jesus from Caiaphas to the governors palace; and it was early. And they did not themselves go into the palace, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.

³⁶ Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have fought, that I should not be delivered up to the Jews; but now is my kingdom not from hence.

² And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and put on him a purple robe, and approached him ³ and said, Hail, king of the Jews! and they gave him blows on the face.

¹¹ Jesus answered, Thou wouldst have no power against me, unless it had been given thee from above; for this cause he that delivered me up to thee hath the greater sin.

¹⁹ And Pilate wrote an inscription also, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, "Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews."

² She runneth therefore, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him. ³ Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they set out for the tomb. ⁴ And they ran both together; and the other disciple outran Peter, and came first to the tomb.

¹⁶ Jesus saith to her, Mary! She turned and saith to him in Hebrew, Rabboni! Which signifieth, Teacher!

⁵ Then Jesus saith to them, Children, have ye any fish? They answered him, No.

¹⁵ So when they had breakfasted, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, lovest thou me more than these? He saith to him, Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my lambs. ¹⁶ He saith to him again a second time, Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? He saith to him, Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Tend my sheep. ¹⁷ He saith to him the third time, Simon, son of John, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my sheep.

³⁷ And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do?

³⁹ For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.

⁴⁵ and they sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as any one had need.

² And a certain man lame from his birth was carried along, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of those who entered the temple; ³ who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked alms.

¹³ The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his servant Jesus, whom ye indeed delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him. ¹⁴ But ye denied the holy and righteous one, and asked that a murderer should be granted to you.

²⁵ Ye are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, "And in thy posterity shall all the families of the earth be blessed."

³⁴ For there was no one among them that was in want; for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, ³⁵ and laid them at the feet of the apostles; and distribution was made to every one, according as he had need. ³⁶ And Joseph, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, when interpreted, Son of consolation,) a Levite, born in Cyprus, ³⁷ having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.

⁴¹ They therefore went away from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame in behalf of that name;

¹⁴ For we have heard him say, This Jesus the Nazarene will destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses delivered to us.

⁵¹ Stiffnecked, and uncircumcised in heart and ears! ye do always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do ye.

⁶ But arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

² And he slew James, the brother of John, with the sword.

²² and having removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king, to whom he gave testimony, saying, "I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who will do all my will." ²³ From the seed of this man hath God, according to his promise, brought to Israel a Saviour, Jesus;

²⁷ For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath, fulfilled them in condemning him.

⁴⁶ Then Paul and Barnabas said boldly and plainly, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you; but seeing ye thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of the everlasting life, lo! we turn to the gentiles. ⁴⁷ For thus hath the Lord commanded us: "I have set thee to be a light of the gentiles, that thou mayst bring salvation even to the end of the earth." ⁴⁸ And when the gentiles heard this, they rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord; and as many as were ordained to everlasting life, believed.

²⁵ But at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing praises to God; and the prisoners were listening to them.

³⁰ and having brought them out, he said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? ³¹ And they said, Believe in the Lord Jesus, and thou wilt be saved, and thy household.

²² And now behold, I go, bound in my spirit, to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will befall me there;

³² And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all the sanctified.

¹⁸ to open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and an inheritance among the sanctified, by faith in me.

³ the gospel concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David as to the flesh, ⁴ and shown with power to be the Son of God as to his spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord;

⁷ everlasting life to those who by patient continuance in welldoing seek for glory, and honor, and incorruption;

¹² they have all turned aside from the right way, they have become worthless together; there is none that doeth good, not even one.

²⁰ Because by works of the Law no flesh shall be accepted as righteous: for by the Law is the knowledge of sin.

³ And not only so, but we rejoice in afflictions also, knowing that affliction produceth endurance,

²³ For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is everlasting life, through Christ Jesus our Lord.

¹ Know ye not, brethren, (for I am speaking to those who are acquainted with the Law,) that the Law hath dominion over a man only as long as he liveth? ² For the married woman is bound by law to her husband while he liveth; but if the husband die, she is released from the law which bound her to him. ³ So then, if while her husband is living she connect herself with another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband die, she is no longer bound by that law, so that she will not be an adulteress, though she connect herself with another man.

³ So then, if while her husband is living she connect herself with another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband die, she is no longer bound by that law, so that she will not be an adulteress, though she connect herself with another man.

⁹ And I, apart from the Law, was once alive; but when the commandment came, sin came to life again, and I died;

¹⁷ and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and fellowheirs with Christ; if indeed we are suffering with him, that we may also be glorified with him. ¹⁸ For I esteem the sufferings of the present time as of no account, when compared with the glory which is about to be revealed to us.

²⁶ In like manner the Spirit also helpeth our weakness; for we know not what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedeth with groans which cannot be expressed in words.

³⁰ What then shall we say? That the gentiles, who did not strive after righteousness, obtained righteousness, but a righteousness which is of faith; ³¹ while Israel, which strove after a law of righteousness, did not attain to a law of righteousness. ³² Why? Because they did not strive for it by faith, but as being by works. For they stumbled against the stone of stumbling; ³³ as it is written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and rock of offence; and he that believeth in him shall not be put to shame."

² For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. ³ For being ignorant of the righteousness which is of God, and endeavoring to establish a righteousness of their own, they have not submitted themselves to the righteousness which is of God. ⁴ For Christ is the end of the Law, so that every one that believeth may obtain righteousness.

⁹ for if thou shalt acknowledge with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. ¹⁰ For with the heart man believeth so as to obtain righteousness, and with the mouth professeth so as to obtain salvation. ¹¹ For the Scripture saith, "Whoever believeth in him shall not be put to shame." ¹² For there is no difference between Jew and Greek; for one and the same is Lord over all, rich to all that call upon him. ¹³ For "every one who calleth upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

¹⁶ And if the first portion of the dough is holy, so also will be the lump; and if the root is holy, so will be the branches.

²⁸ In regard to the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes; but in regard to Gods choice, they are beloved for the fathers sake.

² and be not conformed to the fashion of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that ye may learn by experience what is the will of God, what is good, and wellpleasing, and perfect.

¹⁰ In brotherly love, be affectionate to one another; in honor, give each other the preference.

⁹ For these, "Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet," and every other commandment, are summed up in this precept, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."

²⁶ For consider, brethren, who ye are that have been called; not many wise men after the fashion of the world, not many mighty, not many noble;

⁷ Now therefore it is altogether an evil among you, that ye have suits against each other. Why do ye not rather submit to wrong? Why do ye not rather allow yourselves to be defrauded? ⁸ But ye yourselves wrong, and defraud, and that too your brethren. ⁹ Know ye not, that wrongdoers shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

¹⁶ Know ye not, that he who is connected with a harlot is one body with her? "For the two," saith he, "shall become one flesh;"

⁴ The wife hath not the disposal of her own body, but her husband; and so also the husband hath not the disposal of his own body, but his wife.

¹⁰ But to those who are married it is my command, yet not mine, but the Lords: Let not the wife separate herself from her husband, ¹¹ and if she have separated herself let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband; and let not the husband put away his wife.

¹¹ and if she have separated herself let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband; and let not the husband put away his wife.

¹³ and if a wife hath an unbelieving husband, and he be satisfied to dwell with her, let her not put her husband away. ¹⁴ For the unbelieving husband hath been made holy by his wife, and the unbelieving wife hath been made holy by the brother; otherwise were your children unclean, but, as it is, they are holy.

¹⁹ For being free from all men, yet I made myself a servant to all, that I might gain the more; ²⁰ and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those under the Law, as under the Law, not being myself under the Law, that I might gain those under the Law; ²¹ to those without the Law, as without the Law, being not without a law before God, but under the law of Christ, that I might gain those without the Law; ²² to the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak; I have become all things to all, that I might by all means save some. ²³ And I do all for the sake of the gospel, that I may with others partake of it.

²³ And I do all for the sake of the gospel, that I may with others partake of it.

⁹ Nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them tempted, and were destroyed by the serpents.

²⁰ Brethren, do not become children in understanding; yet in malice be children, but in understanding be men.

⁴ and that he was buried, and that he hath risen on the third day, according to the Scriptures;

²¹ Him, who knew not sin, he made sin for us, that we might become Gods righteousness in him.

¹⁰ as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and possessing all things.

¹⁰ For sorrow before God worketh repentance to salvation never to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

⁹ For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

⁸ And God is able to make every blessing abound toward you, that ye, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work; ⁹ as it is written: "He dispersed abroad, he gave to the poor; his righteousness remaineth for ever." ¹⁰ Now, he that ministereth seed to the sower, and bread for food, will supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness; ¹¹ while ye are enriched in everything to all liberality, which worketh out through us thanksgiving to God;

²³ Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as beside myself,) I am more; in labors more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often;

¹⁵ And I will very gladly spend and be spent for your souls; though the more I love you, the less I am loved.

¹³ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, "Cursed is every one that is hanged on a beam of wood,"

¹⁹ My children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you,

²¹ Tell me, ye that desire to be under the Law, do ye not hear the Law?

¹³ For ye, brethren, were called to liberty; only use not your liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by your love serve one another. ¹⁴ For the whole Law is fulfilled in one commandment, even in this "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."

²⁶ "Be angry, and sin not;" let not the sun go down upon your wrath;

⁵ For of this ye are sure, since ye know that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

²⁸ In like manner husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself;

³¹ "For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh."

¹⁸ praying with all prayer and entreaty at all times in the Spirit; and watching to this end with all perseverance and entreaty for all the saints,

³ doing nothing in the spirit of faction, or in the spirit of vainglory, but in humility esteeming others as better than yourselves;

⁵ Yea, let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus, ⁶ who, being in the form of God, did not regard it as a thing to be grasped at to be on an equality with God, ⁷ but made himself of no consideration, taking the form of a servant, and becoming like men; ⁸ and in what appertained to him appearing as a man, he humbled himself, and was obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

⁶ as to zeal, persecuting the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, blameless. ⁷ But whatever things were gain to me, those for the sake of Christ I have counted but loss. ⁸ Nay more, I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, that I may gain Christ,

⁸ Nay more, I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, that I may gain Christ, ⁹ and be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God upon faith;

²¹ who will transform the body of our humiliation so that it shall be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working of the power with which he is able to subdue all things to himself.

⁶ Be anxious about nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God;

²⁴ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up instead that which is wanting of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh on behalf of his body, which is the church;

⁶ that no one should go beyond and overreach his brother in the matter; because the Lord is the avenger in respect to all these things, as we also told you before and solemnly testified.

¹⁶ Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, our Father, who loved us, and gave us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,

⁴ presiding well over his own house, having his children in subjection with all propriety; ⁵ for if a man knoweth not how to preside over his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God ⁶ not a new convert, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the Devil;

⁶ But godliness with contentment is great gain.

⁹ But they who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. ¹⁰ For the love of money is a root of all evils; which some coveting have strayed away from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many pangs.

¹⁷ Charge those who are rich in this world that they be not highminded, nor place their hope in uncertain riches, but in God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; that they do good,

¹⁷ Charge those who are rich in this world that they be not highminded, nor place their hope in uncertain riches, but in God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; that they do good, ¹⁸ that they be rich in good works, liberal in imparting, willing to communicate, ¹⁹ laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the true life.

⁵ when I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that it dwelleth in thee also.

⁵ having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof. And from these turn away.

¹² Yea, and all that desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

¹⁵ and that from a child thou hast known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation, through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

¹⁰ For Demas forsook me, because he loved the present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a people to be his own, zealous in good works.

¹⁷ Whence it was right for him to be in all respects made like to his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful highpriest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

⁷ Wherefore, as the Holy Spirit saith: "Today, if ye hear his voice, ⁸ harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of the temptation in the wilderness, ⁹ where your fathers tempted me by proving me, and saw my works forty years. ¹⁰ Wherefore I was offended with that generation, and said, They always err in their heart, but they knew not my ways;

¹⁵ For we have not a highpriest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who hath in all points been tempted as we are, without sin.

⁷ Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears, to him that was able to save him from death, and was heard by reason of his godly reverence, ⁸ though a son yet learned his obedience from what he suffered;

²⁵ wherefore he is able also to save to the utmost those who come to God through him, since he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

³⁴ For ye sympathized with those in bonds, and ye took joyfully the plundering of your goods, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better and an enduring substance.

¹⁶ but now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly. Wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he prepared for them a city.

¹⁹ accounting that God is able even to raise from the dead; whence also he did figuratively receive him back.

²⁴ By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called son of Pharaohs daughter, ²⁵ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; ²⁶ esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the recompense of reward.

¹ Therefore let us also, being surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth easily beset us, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us;

⁴ Let marriage be honored in all respects, and the bed be undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

² Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into various temptations; ³ knowing that the trying of your faith worketh endurance. ⁴ But let endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting in nothing.

¹² Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he is approved, he will receive the crown of life, which He promised to them that love him.

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

⁵ Hearken, my beloved brethren. Did not God choose the poor as to the world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to them that love him?

¹⁰ For whoever hath kept the whole law, and yet hath offended in one point, hath become guilty of all. ¹¹ For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill." Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou hast become a transgressor of the law.

³ ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. ⁴ Ye adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore chooseth to be a friend of the world, becometh an enemy of God. ⁵ Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, "Zealously doth the Spirit, which made its abode in us, long for us"?

¹ Come now, ye rich men, weep and wail for your miseries that are coming upon you. ² Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are become motheaten; ³ your gold and silver is rusted, and the rust of them will be a witness against you, and will eat your flesh as fire; ye have heaped up treasure in the last days!

⁶ Ye have condemned, ye have killed the just man; he doth not resist you.

¹¹ Behold, we count those happy who have endured. Ye have heard of the patience of Job; behold also the end of the Lord, that he is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

⁴ to an inheritance imperishable, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you, ⁵ who are guarded by the power of God through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time;

¹¹ searching what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them signified, when it testified beforehand the sufferings to come upon Christ, and the glories that were to follow;

¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot;

² as newborn babes, desire the spiritual, pure milk, that ye may grow thereby to salvation;

¹² Beloved, be not surprised at the fiery trial which is taking place among you to prove you, as though a strange thing were befalling you; ¹³ but, in so far as ye share in Christs sufferings, rejoice; that also at the manifestation of his glory ye may rejoice with exceeding joy. ¹⁴ If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye for the Spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you. ¹⁵ For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evildoer, or as a busybody in other mens matters; ¹⁶ but if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this name.

³ not as lording it over your allotted charge, but being examples to the flock;

⁵ In like manner, ye younger men, submit yourselves to the elder; and all of you be clothed with humility toward each other; for "God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble." ⁶ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;

¹¹ For in this way the entrance will be richly furnished you into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

⁴ and saying, Where is his promised coming? for, from the time when the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as then, and as they have continued from the beginning of the creation.

¹ My children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin. And if any one have sinned, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

¹⁵ Love not the world, nor the things in the world. If any one loveth the world, the love of the Father is not in him; ¹⁶ because all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

²⁵ And this is the promise which he himself promised us, even the life everlasting.

¹ Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God l For this cause the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

⁴ Ye are of God, my children, and have overcome them; because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

⁸ he that loveth not hath not known God; for God is love.

¹⁶ And we have known and believed the love that God hath in regard to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

²¹ My children, keep yourselves from idols.

⁹ I John, your brother, and companion in the affliction and kingdom and endurance in Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, on account of the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus.

³ and thou hast endurance, and hast borne on account of my name, and hast not become weary. ⁴ But I have this against thee, that thou hast left thy first love.

⁹ I know thy affliction and poverty, (but thou art rich,) and the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

¹⁴ But I have a few things against thee; thou hast there them that hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumblingblock in the way of the sons of Israel, and to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.

²⁰ But I have this against thee, that thou sufferest thy wife Jezebel, who calleth herself a prophetess, and she teacheth and seduceth my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.

¹⁷ Because thou sayest, I am rich, and have gotten wealth, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that thou art the wretched and the pitiable one, and poor, and blind, and naked, ¹⁸ I advise thee to buy of me gold refined by fire, that thou mayst be rich; and white garments, that thou mayst be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not be made manifest; and eyesalve to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayst see.

⁵ And in their mouth was found no falsehood; for they are without fault.

¹⁶ I Jesus sent my angel to testify these things to you for the churches. I am the shoot and the offspring of David, the bright morningstar.
