And the high priest answered and said to him, I charge you by the living God, that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God. ⁶⁴ Jesus said to him, You have said so: nevertheless I say to you, Hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

¹⁴ Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, ¹⁵ And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent and believe the gospel.

²⁶ And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried out with a loud voice, it came out of him. ²⁷ And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, What is this? what a new teaching this is! for with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.

³⁵ And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed to a solitary place, and there he prayed.

⁷ Why does this man speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

¹³ And he went up to the mountain, and called to him those he wanted: and they came to him. ¹⁴ And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, ¹⁵ And to have authority to cast out devils: ¹⁶ Simon, whom he called Peter; ¹⁷ And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; to whom he gave the surname Boanerges, which means, Sons of thunder: ¹⁸ And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot, ¹⁹ And Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. And they went into a house.

⁴ Because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and he had pulled apart the chains, and broken the fetters in pieces: no man could subdue him. ⁵ And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying out, and cutting himself with stones.

⁷ And he called to him the twelve, and began to send them forth two by two; and gave them authority over unclean spirits; ⁸ And commanded them to take nothing for their journey, except a staff; no bread, no bag, no money in their belts:

⁸ And commanded them to take nothing for their journey, except a staff; no bread, no bag, no money in their belts: ⁹ But to wear sandals; and not to put on two tunics.

⁹ But to wear sandals; and not to put on two tunics. ¹⁰ And he said to them, Wherever you enter a house, abide there until you depart from that place.

¹⁰ And he said to them, Wherever you enter a house, abide there until you depart from that place.

¹⁰ And he said to them, Wherever you enter a house, abide there until you depart from that place. ¹¹ And whoever will not receive you, or hear you, when you depart from there, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.

¹¹ And whoever will not receive you, or hear you, when you depart from there, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.

¹¹ And whoever will not receive you, or hear you, when you depart from there, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them. ¹² And they went out, and preached that men should repent.

¹² And they went out, and preached that men should repent. ¹³ And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many who were sick, and healed them. ¹⁴ And King Herod heard of it; (for his name was spread abroad). And some said that John the Baptist had risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works showed themselves forth in him. ¹⁵ Others said, He is Elijah. And others said, He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.

¹⁵ Others said, He is Elijah. And others said, He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old. ¹⁶ But when Herod heard of it, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he has risen from the dead. ¹⁷ For Herod himself had John arrested, and bound him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her. ¹⁸ For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife. ¹⁹ Therefore Herodias had a grudge against him, and would have killed him; but she could not: ²⁰ For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and kept him safe; and when he heard him, he was perplexed, but he enjoyed listening to him. ²¹ But an opportunity came on Herod's birthday, when he had a banquet for his lords, high captains, and chief men of Galilee; ²² When the daughter of Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and those who sat with him, the king said to the girl, Ask of me whatever you wish, and I will give it to you. ²³ And he swore to her, Whatever you shall ask of me, I will give it to you, up to half of my kingdom. ²⁴ And she went out, and said to her mother, For what shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist. ²⁵ And she came immediately in haste to the king, and asked, saying, I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptist on a platter. ²⁶ The king was exceedingly sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for the sake of those who sat with him, he would not refuse her. ²⁷ So immediately the king sent an executioner with orders that his head be brought. He went and beheaded him in the prison, ²⁸ And brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl: and she gave it to her mother.

³⁰ And the apostles gathered together with Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught. ³¹ And he said to them, Come by yourselves to a lonely place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat. ³² And they departed privately by boat to a lonely place by themselves. ³³ And the people saw them departing, and many recognized them, and ran there on foot from all the cities, and got there before them.

³³ And the people saw them departing, and many recognized them, and ran there on foot from all the cities, and got there before them. ³⁴ And Jesus, when he came ashore, saw many people, and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.

³⁴ And Jesus, when he came ashore, saw many people, and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. ³⁵ And when the day was almost gone, his disciples came to him, and said, This is a lonely place, and it is very late:

³⁵ And when the day was almost gone, his disciples came to him, and said, This is a lonely place, and it is very late: ³⁶ Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy bread for themselves: for they have nothing to eat.

³⁶ Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy bread for themselves: for they have nothing to eat. ³⁷ He answered and said to them, You give them something to eat. And they said to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii of bread, and give it to them to eat?

³⁷ He answered and said to them, You give them something to eat. And they said to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii of bread, and give it to them to eat?

³⁷ He answered and said to them, You give them something to eat. And they said to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii of bread, and give it to them to eat? ³⁸ He said to them, How many loaves have you? go and see. And when they found out, they said, Five, and two fish.

³⁸ He said to them, How many loaves have you? go and see. And when they found out, they said, Five, and two fish.

³⁸ He said to them, How many loaves have you? go and see. And when they found out, they said, Five, and two fish. ³⁹ And he commanded them to make all the people sit down in groups upon the green grass.

⁴⁰ And they sat down in groups, by hundreds, and by fifties.

⁴⁰ And they sat down in groups, by hundreds, and by fifties. ⁴¹ And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fish he divided among them all.

⁴¹ And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fish he divided among them all. ⁴² And they all ate, and were filled.

⁴² And they all ate, and were filled. ⁴³ And they picked up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fish.

⁴³ And they picked up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fish. ⁴⁴ And there were about five thousand men who ate of the loaves.

⁴⁴ And there were about five thousand men who ate of the loaves. ⁴⁵ And immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he sent the people away. ⁴⁶ And when he had sent them away, he departed to a mountain to pray.

⁵¹ And he joined them in the boat; and the wind ceased: and they were amazed beyond measure.

³⁴ And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

⁶ And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and broke them, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and they set them before the people.

⁸ So they ate, and were filled: and of the broken pieces that were left over they picked up seven baskets. ⁹ And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.

¹⁶ And they discussed among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread. ¹⁷ And being aware of this, Jesus said to them, Why do you discuss having no bread? do you not yet see or understand? are your hearts hardened? ¹⁸ Having eyes, do you not see? and having ears, do you not hear? and do you not remember? ¹⁹ When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did you pick up? They said to him, Twelve. ²⁰ And when I broke the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did you pick up? And they said, Seven.

²⁷ And Jesus went out, with his disciples, to the villages of Caesarea Philippi: and on the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am? ²⁸ And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elijah; and others, One of the prophets.

²⁸ And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elijah; and others, One of the prophets. ²⁹ And he said to them, But who do you say that I am? And Peter answered and said to him, You are the Christ.

²⁹ And he said to them, But who do you say that I am? And Peter answered and said to him, You are the Christ. ³⁰ And he commanded them that they should tell no man about him.

³⁰ And he commanded them that they should tell no man about him. ³¹ And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and by the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

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

³¹ And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and by the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. ³² And he spoke this plainly. And Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him. ³³ But when he had turned about and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get behind me, Satan: for you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things that are of men. ³⁴ And when he had called the people to him, with his disciples also, he said to them, Whoever would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. ³⁵ For whoever would save his life shall lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, shall save it. ³⁶ For what does it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

³⁶ For what does it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? ³⁷ Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? ³⁸ Therefore, whoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

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

¹ And he said to them, Truly I say to you, That there are some of those who stand here, who shall not taste of death, until they have seen the kingdom of God come with power. ² And after six days Jesus took with him Peter, and James, and John, and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.

² And after six days Jesus took with him Peter, and James, and John, and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them. ³ And his clothing became shining and exceedingly white; as no fuller on earth could whiten them.

⁴ And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus. ⁵ And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here: let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

⁶ For he did not know what to say; for they were very afraid.

¹⁰ And they kept that saying to themselves, questioning one with another what rising from the dead might mean. ¹¹ And they asked him, saying, Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first? ¹² And he answered them, Elijah truly comes first, and restores all things; and how is it written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be treated with contempt? ¹³ But I say to you, That Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him. ¹⁴ And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes arguing with them. ¹⁵ And immediately all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and ran to greet him. ¹⁶ And he asked the scribes, What are you discussing with them? ¹⁷ And one of the multitude answered and said, Teacher, I have brought to you my son, who has a dumb spirit; ¹⁸ And whenever it seizes him, it tears him: and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid: and I asked your disciples to cast it out; and they could not. ¹⁹ He answered him, and said, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I endure you? bring him to me.

¹⁹ He answered him, and said, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I endure you? bring him to me. ²⁰ And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him; and he fell on the ground, and rolled around foaming at the mouth.

²⁰ And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him; and he fell on the ground, and rolled around foaming at the mouth. ²¹ And he asked his father, How long has this been happening to him? And he said, Since he was a child. ²² And often it has cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if you can do anything, have compassion on us, and help us. ²³ Jesus said to him, If you can! all things are possible to him who believes. ²⁴ And immediately the father of the child cried out, and said, Lord, I believe; help me overcome my unbelief. ²⁵ When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, You dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and do not enter into him again. ²⁶ And the spirit cried out, and threw him into severe convulsions, and came out of him: and he was like a corpse; so that many said, He is dead.

²⁶ And the spirit cried out, and threw him into severe convulsions, and came out of him: and he was like a corpse; so that many said, He is dead.

²⁶ And the spirit cried out, and threw him into severe convulsions, and came out of him: and he was like a corpse; so that many said, He is dead. ²⁷ But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

²⁷ But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. ²⁸ And when he came into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could we not cast it out? ²⁹ And he said to them, This kind can come out by nothing but prayer. ³⁰ And they departed from there, and passed through Galilee; and he would not have any man know about it, ³¹ For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after he is killed, he shall rise on the third day.

³¹ For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after he is killed, he shall rise on the third day. ³² But they did not understood that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

³² But they did not understood that saying, and were afraid to ask him. ³³ And he came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house he asked them, What were you discussing among yourselves along the way? ³⁴ But they kept quiet: for along the way they had discussed which of them was the greatest. ³⁵ And he sat down, and called the twelve, and said to them, If any man desires to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all. ³⁶ And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said to them, ³⁷ Whoever shall receive one child such as this in my name, receives me: and whoever shall receive me, does not receive me, but him who sent me.

³⁷ Whoever shall receive one child such as this in my name, receives me: and whoever shall receive me, does not receive me, but him who sent me. ³⁸ And John answered him, saying, Teacher, we saw someone casting out devils in your name, and we forbad him, because he does not follow us. ³⁹ But Jesus said, Do not forbid him: for there is no man who shall do a miracle in my name, who can soon after speak evil of me. ⁴⁰ For he who is not against us is for us. ⁴¹ For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to Christ, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

⁴³ And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off: it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched: ⁴⁴ [Where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.] ⁴⁵ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off: it is better for you to enter life lame, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched: ⁴⁶ [Where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.] ⁴⁷ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out: it is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell: ⁴⁸ Where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.

¹³ And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those who brought them. ¹⁴ But when Jesus saw it, he was very displeased, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not forbid them: for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

¹⁴ But when Jesus saw it, he was very displeased, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not forbid them: for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

¹⁴ But when Jesus saw it, he was very displeased, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not forbid them: for to such belongs the kingdom of God. ¹⁵ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall not enter it at all.

³³ Saying, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles: ³⁴ And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

³⁸ But Jesus said to them, You do not know what you are asking: can you drink of the cup that I drink? or be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?

⁴⁹ And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they called the blind man, saying to him, Take courage, arise; he calls you.

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

³³ And he took with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be filled with horror and deeply troubled; ³⁴ And he said to them, My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, to the point of death: stay here, and watch. ³⁵ And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. ³⁶ And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible for you; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what you will.

⁶¹ But he held his peace, and said nothing. Again the high priest asked him, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?

¹² After that he appeared in another form to two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.

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

¹⁷ And these signs shall follow those who believe; In my name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; ¹⁸ They shall pick up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. ¹⁹ So after the Lord had spoken to them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. ²⁰ And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with accompanying signs.]

¹⁷ And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

⁵³ He has filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he has sent away empty.

⁶⁶ And all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What shall this child shall turn out to be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.

¹⁹ But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

²⁶ And it was revealed to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

⁵⁰ And they did not understand what he said to them. ⁵¹ And he went down with them, to Nazareth, and was obedient to them: but his mother kept all these things in her heart.

¹ Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judaea, Herod tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,

¹¹ He answered and said to them, He who has two coats, let him share with him who has none; and he who has food, let him do likewise.

²¹ Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also was baptized, and as he was praying, heaven was opened, ²² And the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, You are my beloved Son; in you I am well pleased.

⁵ And the devil, taking him up to a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. ⁶ And the devil said to him, I will give you all this power and its glory: for it has been delivered to me; and I give it to whomever I will. ⁷ Therefore if you will worship me, it shall all be yours.

³⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold your peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, without doing him any harm. ³⁶ And they were all amazed, and spoke among themselves, saying, What word is this? for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.

⁵ And Simon answered him, Master, we have toiled all night, and have caught nothing: nevertheless at your word I will let down the net.

⁹ For he was astonished, and all who were with him, at the catch of fish which they had taken:

¹⁴ And he ordered him to tell no man: But go, and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.

²² But Jesus, aware of their thoughts, answered and said to them, Why do you question in your hearts?

²⁶ And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.

²⁹ And Levi made a great feast in his own house for him: and there was a great company of tax gatherers and of others who were reclining at table with them.

³¹ And Jesus answered and said to them, Those who are well do not need a physician; but those who are sick.

¹² And it came to pass in those days, that he went out to a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God. ¹³ And when it was day, he called his disciples: and from them he chose twelve, whom he also named apostles; ¹⁴ Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew, ¹⁵ Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot, ¹⁶ And Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

²⁷ But I say to you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, ²⁸ Bless those who curse you, and pray for those who abuse you. ²⁹ And to him who strikes you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and from him who takes away your coat do not withhold your shirt either. ³⁰ Give to every man who asks of you; and from him who takes away what is yours, do not ask for it back. ³¹ And as you would have men do to you, do the same to them.

¹² Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people from the city were with her.

¹⁵ And the dead man sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him back to his mother.

²⁷ This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who shall prepare your way before you. ²⁸ For I say to you, Among those born of women there is none greater than John: but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is who touches him: for she is a sinner. ⁴⁰ And Jesus answered him, Simon, I have something to say to you. And he said, Say it, Teacher.

¹ And it came to pass soon after, that he went through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the glad news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him,

¹⁰ And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others it is in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

²⁵ And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they were afraid and amazed, saying to one another, Who is this! for he commands even the winds and water, and they obey him.

²⁹ (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For often it had seized him: and though he was kept under guard, bound with chains and in fetters; he would break the bonds and be driven by the devil into the desert.)

⁴¹ And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and begged him to come to his house: ⁴² For he had only one daughter, about twelve years old, and she lay dying. But as he went the people crowded around him.

⁵¹ And when he came into the house, he allowed no one to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.

¹ Then he called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

¹ Then he called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. ² And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

² And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

⁷ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was happening: and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead; ⁸ And by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets had risen again.

¹⁰ And the apostles, when they returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into the city of Bethsaida. ¹¹ And the people, when they learned of it, followed him: and he received them, and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed healing.

¹¹ And the people, when they learned of it, followed him: and he received them, and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed healing. ¹² And when the day began to wear away, the twelve came, and said to him, Send the crowd away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and find lodging and food: for we are here in a remote place. ¹³ But he said to them, You give them something to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves and two fish; unless we go and buy food for all these people. ¹⁴ For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each. ¹⁵ And they did so, and made them all sit down. ¹⁶ Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude. ¹⁷ And they ate, and were all filled: and they picked up twelve baskets of broken pieces that remained. ¹⁸ And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, Who do the people say that I am? ¹⁹ They answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again.

²² Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised on the third day.

³⁹ And, lo, a spirit takes him, and he suddenly cries out; and it convulses him until he foams at the mouth, and it mauls him and hardly ever leaves him.

⁴³ And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they were all marvelling at everything Jesus did, he said to his disciples, ⁴⁴ Let these words sink down into your ears: the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

⁴⁴ Let these words sink down into your ears: the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men. ⁴⁵ But they did not understand this statement, and it was hidden from them, so they did not understand it: and they were afraid to ask him about it. ⁴⁶ Then there arose a dispute among them about which of them was the greatest.

⁴⁸ And said to them, Whoever shall receive this child in my name receives me: and whoever shall receive me receives him who sent me: for he who is least among you, that one shall be great.

⁵¹ And it came to pass, when the time had come for him to be taken up, he resolutely set his face to go to Jerusalem,

⁵³ But they did not receive him, because his face was set to go to Jerusalem. ⁵⁴ And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them? ⁵⁵ But he turned, and rebuked them, ⁵⁶ And they went to another village. ⁵⁷ And it came to pass, that, as they went along the way, a man said to him, Lord, I will follow you wherever you go. ⁵⁸ And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head. ⁵⁹ And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father. ⁶⁰ Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their own dead: but you go and preach the kingdom of God.

¹ After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them out two by two before him into every town and place where he would go.

⁴ Carry neither purse, nor bag, nor sandals: and greet no man along the way. ⁵ And into whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

⁵ And into whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this house. ⁶ And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest upon him: if not, it shall turn to you.

⁶ And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest upon him: if not, it shall turn to you. ⁷ Remain in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.

⁷ Remain in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house. ⁸ And into whatever town you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:

⁸ And into whatever town you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you: ⁹ And heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near to you.

⁹ And heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near to you. ¹⁰ But into whatever town you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, ¹¹ Even the very dust of your town, which clings to us, we wipe off against you: nevertheless, be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near to you.

¹¹ Even the very dust of your town, which clings to us, we wipe off against you: nevertheless, be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near to you. ¹² I say to you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that town.

¹⁶ He who hears you hears me; and he who despises you despises me; and he who despises me despises him who sent me. ¹⁷ And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject to us through your name.

¹⁷ And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject to us through your name. ¹⁸ And he said to them, I beheld Satan fall like lightning from heaven. ¹⁹ Behold, I give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

¹⁹ Behold, I give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

¹ And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

²³ He who is not with me is against me: and he who does not gather with me scatters.

⁸ And I say to you, Whoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God: ⁹ But he who denies me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

¹⁹ And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry. ²⁰ But God said to him, You fool, this night your soul shall be required of you: then who shall own those things, which you have prepared? ²¹ So it is with him who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God. ²² And he said to his disciples, Therefore I say to you, Take no thought for your life, what you shall eat; or for the body, what you shall put on.

²⁸ If then God so clothes the grass, which is in the field today, and tomorrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?

⁵⁰ But I have a baptism to undergo; and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!

²² And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and traveling toward Jerusalem.

²⁵ When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open up to us; then he shall answer and say to you, I do not know where you are from: ²⁶ Then you shall begin to say, We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets. ²⁷ But he shall say, I tell you, I do not know where you are from; depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.

³¹ That same hour some of the Pharisees came, saying to him, Get away, and depart from here: for Herod wants to kill you. ³² And he said to them, Go tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall complete my course.

³² And he said to them, Go tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall complete my course. ³³ Nevertheless, I must journey on today, and tomorrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem. ³⁴ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to you; how often would I have gathered your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not allow it!

⁷ And he told a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the places of honour; saying to them, ⁸ When you are invited by someone to a wedding, do not sit down at the place of honour; for one more distinguished than you may have been invited; ⁹ And he who invited both of you will come and say to you, Give this man your place; and with shame you will begin to take the lowest place. ¹⁰ But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place; that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, Friend, go up higher: then you shall have honour in the presence of those who are at the table with you. ¹¹ For whoever exalts himself shall be abased; and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.

¹¹ For whoever exalts himself shall be abased; and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.

¹⁸ And they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of land, and I must go and see it: Please excuse me. ¹⁹ And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out: Please excuse me. ²⁰ And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.

²⁶ If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, yea, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.

²⁶ If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, yea, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.

²⁶ If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, yea, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. ²⁷ And whoever does not carry his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.

²⁷ And whoever does not carry his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. ²⁸ For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has sufficient money to finish it? ²⁹ Lest perhaps, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all who behold it will begin to mock him, ³⁰ Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. ³¹ Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first, and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? ³² Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation, and asks terms of peace. ³³ So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has, cannot be my disciple.

³² But we had to make merry, and be glad: for this brother of yours was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

¹³ No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.

¹⁶ The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man forces his way into it.

²⁴ And he cried out, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. ²⁵ But Abraham said, Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and Lazarus received evil things: but now he is comforted, and you are tormented.

¹¹ And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed between Samaria and Galilee.

¹⁶ And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

³¹ On that day, let him who is upon the housetop, and his goods in the house, not come down to take them away: and likewise let not him who is in the field turn back. ³² Remember Lot's wife. ³³ Whoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

²² Now when Jesus heard this, he said to him, You still lack one thing: sell all that you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. ²³ And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.

³¹ Then he took the twelve aside, and said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.

³¹ Then he took the twelve aside, and said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished. ³² For he shall be delivered to the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully treated, and spit upon: ³³ And they shall flog him, and put him to death: and on the third day he shall rise again. ³⁴ And they understood none of these things: this saying was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend the things which were spoken.

³⁴ And they understood none of these things: this saying was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend the things which were spoken.

¹⁰ For the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which was lost. ¹¹ And while they listened to these things, he told a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God would immediately appear.

²⁸ And when he had spoken these things, he went on ahead, ascending to Jerusalem.

²⁵ And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth nations shall be distressed and perplexed by the roaring waves of the sea;

¹⁸ For I say to you, I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. ¹⁹ And he took bread, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: do this in remembrance of me.

²⁴ And there was also a dispute among them as to which of them should be accounted the greatest. ²⁵ And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and those who exercise authority over them are called benefactors. ²⁶ But not so with you: but he who is greatest among you, let him be as the youngest; and he who rules, as he who serves.

²⁶ But not so with you: but he who is greatest among you, let him be as the youngest; and he who rules, as he who serves. ²⁷ For which is greater, he who reclines at table, or he who serves? is it not he who reclines at table? but I am among you as one who serves.

³⁰ That you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you out without purse, or bag, or sandals, did you lack anything? And they said, Nothing.

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as was his custom, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples followed him. ⁴⁰ When he arrived at the place, he said to them, Pray that you may not enter into temptation. ⁴¹ And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and knelt down, and prayed,

⁴⁵ And when he rose up from prayer, and came to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, ⁴⁶ And said to them, Why do you sleep? rise and pray, that you may not enter into temptation.

⁵¹ And Jesus answered, No more of this. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁶⁷ Are you the Christ? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe:

⁸ And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad: for he had long wanted to see him, because he had heard many things about him; and he hoped to see a miracle done by him.

³⁴ Then Jesus said, Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they do. And they divided his clothing by casting lots.

⁶ He is not here, but has risen: remember how he spoke to you when he was still in Galilee, ⁷ Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

⁷ Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

²⁶ Was it not necessary for the Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? ²⁷ And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he explained to them all the things concerning himself in the scriptures.

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

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

⁵¹ And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

¹⁴ And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father,) full of grace and truth.

¹⁷ For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

²¹ And they asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not. Are you the prophet? And he answered, No.

²⁵ And they asked him, Why do you baptize then, if you are not the Christ, or Elijah, or the prophet?

²⁹ The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

⁴¹ He first found his brother Simon, and said to him, We have found the Messiah, which translated means Christ.

⁴⁴ Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

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

¹⁹ Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. ²⁰ Then the Jews said, It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days? ²¹ But he spoke of the temple of his body. ²² Therefore, when he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered he had said this to them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken.

²⁵ And needed no one to testify about man: for he himself knew what was in man.

¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. ¹⁷ For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world might be saved through him.

³⁵ The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand. ³⁶ He who believes in the Son has eternal life: but he who disobeys the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God rests upon him.

⁹ Then the woman of Samaria said to him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

²⁹ Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did: is this not the Christ?

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

⁴⁰ So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them: and he stayed there two days. ⁴¹ And many more believed because of his own word; ⁴² And they said to the woman, Now we believe, no longer because of your words: for now we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

⁴² And they said to the woman, Now we believe, no longer because of your words: for now we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

⁴⁷ When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went to him, and begged him to come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

²² For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment to the Son: ²³ That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He who does not honour the Son does not honour the Father who has sent him. ²⁴ Truly, truly, I say to you, He who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has eternal life, and shall not come into judgment; but has passed from death into life.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, when you receive honour from one another, and do not seek the honour that comes from him who alone is God?

¹ After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, that is, the sea of Tiberias.

⁵ When Jesus lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company coming to him, he said to Philip, Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

⁵ When Jesus lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company coming to him, he said to Philip, Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

⁵ When Jesus lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company coming to him, he said to Philip, Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat? ⁶ And this he said to test him: for he knew what he would do.

⁶ And this he said to test him: for he knew what he would do.

⁶ And this he said to test him: for he knew what he would do. ⁷ Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii of bread is not sufficient for every one of them to have a little.

⁷ Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii of bread is not sufficient for every one of them to have a little.

⁷ Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii of bread is not sufficient for every one of them to have a little. ⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him, ⁹ There is a lad here, who has five barley loaves, and two small fish: but what are they among so many?

⁹ There is a lad here, who has five barley loaves, and two small fish: but what are they among so many?

⁹ There is a lad here, who has five barley loaves, and two small fish: but what are they among so many? ¹⁰ And Jesus said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

¹⁰ And Jesus said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand. ¹¹ And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to those who were seated; and he did likewise with the fish, as much as they wanted.

¹¹ And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to those who were seated; and he did likewise with the fish, as much as they wanted.

¹¹ And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to those who were seated; and he did likewise with the fish, as much as they wanted. ¹² When they were filled, he said to his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing may be lost.

¹² When they were filled, he said to his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing may be lost. ¹³ Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

¹³ Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten. ¹⁴ Then those men, when they had seen the miraculous sign that Jesus did, said, This is truly the prophet who is to come into the world. ¹⁵ When Jesus perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again to the mountain by himself.

²³ But now some other boats came from Tiberias near to the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks.

³⁷ All those whom the Father gives me shall come to me; and he who comes to me I will by no means cast out.

⁶⁰ Many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it? ⁶¹ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, Does this offend you? ⁶² What then if you should see the Son of man ascend to where he was before?

⁶² What then if you should see the Son of man ascend to where he was before? ⁶³ The spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing: the words I speak to you are spirit and life. ⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning those who did not believe, and who would betray him. ⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore I said to you, that no one can come to me, unless it is granted to him by the Father. ⁶⁶ From that time many of his disciples drew back, and no longer walked with him.

⁶⁸ Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? you have the words of eternal life. ⁶⁹ And we believe and have come to know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

⁴⁰ Many of the people, when they heard this, said, Truly this is the Prophet. ⁴¹ Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

⁴⁴ You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature: for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

⁴⁸ Then the Jews answered and said to him, Do we not rightly say that you are a Samaritan, and have a devil?

⁵¹ Truly, truly, I say to you, If anyone keeps my word, he shall never see death. ⁵² Then the Jews said to him, Now we know that you have a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If anyone keeps my word, he shall never taste of death.

⁵⁹ Then they took up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.

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

¹⁰ The thief comes only to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I have come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

²⁷ She said to him, Yes, Lord: I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.

¹⁶ These things his disciples did not understand at first: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things to him.

²⁵ He who loves his life shall lose it; and he who hates his life in this world shall keep it for life eternal.

²⁵ He who loves his life shall lose it; and he who hates his life in this world shall keep it for life eternal. ²⁶ If any man serves me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall my servant be also: if any man serves me, the Father will honour him.

³⁴ The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that the Christ abides forever: and how is it that you say, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

⁴³ For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. ⁴⁴ Jesus cried out and said, He who believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me. ⁴⁵ And he who sees me sees him who sent me.

⁴⁷ And if any man hears my words, and does not believe, I do not judge him: for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

¹ Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you, He who receives whomever I send receives me; and he who receives me receives him who sent me.

³⁷ Peter said to him, Lord, why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for your sake.

² In my Father's house are many dwelling places: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

⁵ Thomas said to him, Lord, we do not know where you are going; so how can we know the way?

⁸ Philip said to him, Lord, show us the Father, and it will satisfy us. ⁹ Jesus said to him, Have I been so long with you, and yet you do not know me, Philip? he who has seen me has seen the Father; and how then do you say, Show us the Father?

¹² Truly, truly, I say to you, He who believes in me, the works that I do he shall do also; and he shall do greater works than these; because I go to my Father.

²¹ He who has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is who loves me: and he who loves me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

⁴ But these things I have spoken to you, that when the time shall come, you may remember that I told you of them. These things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you. ⁵ But now I go to him who sent me; and none of you asks me, Where are you going?

⁷ Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is for your good that I go away: for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send him to you.

⁹ Of sin, because they do not believe in me;

¹⁷ Then some of his disciples said among themselves, What is this that he says to us, In a little while you shall not see me: and again, in a little while, you shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father? ¹⁸ Therefore they said, What is this that he says, A little while? we cannot tell what he is saying.

²⁸ I came forth from the Father, and have come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

³⁰ Now we are sure that you know all things, and do not need any man to question you: by this we believe that you came forth from God.

¹¹ And now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to you. Holy Father, keep those whom you have given me in your own name, that they may be one, as we are.

²⁴ Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which you have given me: for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

¹¹ Jesus answered, You would have no power over me unless it was given to you from above: therefore he who delivered me to you has the greater sin.

²⁷ Then he said to Thomas, Reach here with your finger, and behold my hands; and reach here with your hand, and thrust it into my side: and do not be faithless, but believing.

³¹ But these are written, that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you might have life through his name.

¹⁵ So when they had eaten, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these? He said to him, Yes, Lord; you know that I love you. He said to him, Feed my lambs. ¹⁶ He said to him a second time, Simon, son of John, do you love me? He said to him, Yes, Lord; you know that I love you. He said to him, Tend my sheep. ¹⁷ He said to him a third time, Simon, son of John, do you love me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Do you love me? And he said to him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus said to him, Feed my sheep.

¹⁷ He said to him a third time, Simon, son of John, do you love me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Do you love me? And he said to him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus said to him, Feed my sheep.

²² Jesus said to him, If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? you follow me. ²³ Then this saying went abroad among the brethren, that this disciple should not die: yet Jesus did not said to him, He shall not die; but, If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you?

² Until the day he was taken up, after he had, through the Holy Spirit, given commands to the apostles whom he had chosen.

⁸ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you: and you shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the remotest part of the earth. ⁹ And when he had spoken these things, while they watched, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

¹⁸ (Now this man purchased a field with the reward of his wickedness; and falling headlong, he burst apart in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out.

²⁵ To take part in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas turned aside, that he might go to his own place.

²³ This man, being delivered up by the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you have taken, and by the hands of wicked men have crucified and slain.

⁴⁰ And with many other words did he testify and exhort them, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.

¹⁰ And they knew that it was the one who sat begging for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened to him. ¹¹ And as he clung to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly amazed. ¹² And when Peter saw it, he answered the people, You men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? or why do you look so earnestly at us, as though by our own power or holiness we made this man walk? ¹³ The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus; whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to let him go.

¹³ The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus; whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to let him go. ¹⁴ But you denied the Holy and Just One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you; ¹⁵ And killed the Prince of life, whom God has raised from the dead. Of this we are witnesses. ¹⁶ And his name, through faith in his name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know: and the faith which is through Jesus has given him this perfect health in the presence of you all.

²² For Moses said, The Lord your God shall raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brethren; you shall hear him in all things, whatever he shall say to you. ²³ And it shall come to pass, that anyone who will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

¹⁸ And they called them, and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. ¹⁹ But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, judge for yourselves.

²⁵ Who by the mouth of our father David said, Why did the Gentiles rage, and the people imagine vain things? ²⁶ The kings of the earth took their stand, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. ²⁷ For truly in this city, against your holy servant Jesus, whom you have anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together, ²⁸ To do whatever your hand and your counsel predestined to be done. ²⁹ And now, Lord, behold their threatenings, and grant to your servants that they may speak your word with all boldness, ³⁰ while you stretch forth your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are done through the name of your holy servant Jesus.

³⁰ while you stretch forth your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are done through the name of your holy servant Jesus.

¹⁵ So that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and mats, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall upon some of them.

²⁸ Did we not sternly command you that you should not teach in this name? and, behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

¹⁵ And all who sat in the council, looking steadfastly at him, saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

³⁶ And as they went on their way, they came to some water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what prevents me from being baptized?

²² But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, by proving that Jesus is the Christ.

³⁴ And Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you: arise, and make your bed. And he arose immediately.

⁴¹ And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.

¹⁸ And for about forty years he endured their conduct in the wilderness.

²⁷ For those who live in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they did not recognize him nor understand the words of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, have fulfilled these by condemning him. ²⁸ And though they found no cause for death in him, yet they asked Pilate that he be slain. ²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.

⁵¹ But they shook the dust off of their feet against them, and went to Iconium.

³⁷ And Barnabas wanted to take with them John, called Mark. ³⁸ But Paul did not think it good to take him with them, for he had deserted them in Pamphylia, and did not continue with them in the work.

¹⁵ And when she was baptized, and her household, she begged us, saying, If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house, and stay there. And she persuaded us.

³ Explaining and proving, that Christ needed to suffer, and to rise again from the dead; and saying, this Jesus, whom I preach to you, is the Christ.

⁶ And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his clothing, and said to them, May your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.

¹³ Then certain of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to pronounce the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, We command you by Jesus whom Paul preaches. ¹⁴ There were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish high priest, who were doing this. ¹⁵ And the evil spirit answered, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you? ¹⁶ And the man who had the evil spirit leaped on them, subdued them and overcame them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

²² And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit, to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: ²³ Except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city, that bonds and afflictions await me. ²⁴ But I do not count my life as precious to myself, so that I might finish my course, and the ministry, which I have received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

¹¹ When he had come to us, he took Paul's belt, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus says the Holy Spirit, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this belt, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. ¹² When we heard these things, both we, and the people of that place, begged him not to go up to Jerusalem. ¹³ Then Paul answered, What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? for I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. ¹⁴ And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.

³ Then Paul said to him, God shall strike you, you whitewashed wall: do you sit to judge me according to the law, yet contrary to the law command me to be struck? ⁴ And those who stood by said, Do you revile God's high priest? ⁵ Then Paul said, I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.

⁹ I truly thought to myself, that I ought to do many things to oppose to the name of Jesus of Nazareth. ¹⁰ And this I did in Jerusalem: and I had many of the saints shut up in prison, by authority of the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I cast my vote against them. ¹¹ And I punished them often in every synagogue, and tried to force them to blaspheme; and being furiously enraged against them, I persecuted them even in foreign cities.

³⁵ And when he had spoken thus, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.

³¹ Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all boldness, and no man hindered him.

¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

⁴ Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience; not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

²¹ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law has been manifested, though it is witnessed to by the law and the prophets; ²² This is the righteousness of God which is by faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe: for there is no difference: ²³ For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹³ For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if through the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you shall live.

¹⁴ But how shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

¹⁷ So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.

³ For through the grace given to me, I say to every man among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according to the measure of faith God has given him.

¹⁰ Be devoted to one another with brotherly love; honour one another more than yourselves;

²¹ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

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

³ For even Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached you fell upon me.

²³ But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness; ²⁴ But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

¹⁶ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast about: for it is a necessity laid upon me; woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!

²⁷ But I beat my body, and bring it into subjection: lest by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.

³⁰ If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?

²⁴ And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, This is my body, which is for you: do this in remembrance of me.

³ Therefore, I want you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Spirit.

²⁰ Brethren, do not be children in understanding: in evil be infants, but in understanding be men.

⁴⁰ But let all things be done decently and in order.

⁴ And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

³⁰ And why do we stand in jeopardy every hour? ³¹ I assure you, just as I rejoice in you through Christ Jesus our Lord: I die daily.

⁷ For if the ministry of death, written and engraved in stone, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance; and that glory fading: ⁸ Shall not the ministry of the spirit be even more glorious? ⁹ For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, far more does the ministry of righteousness exceed it in glory. ¹⁰ For even that which was glorious no longer has glory, because of the glory that surpasses it. ¹¹ For if that which has faded away came with glory, how much more glorious is that which remains.

¹⁴ But their minds were hardened: for to this day the same veil remains unlifted at the reading of the old covenant; because it is only removed through Christ. ¹⁵ But even to this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their hearts. ¹⁶ But whenever a man shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away.

¹⁸ But we all, with unveiled faces beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are changed into that same image, from glory to glory, and this is from the Lord, the Spirit.

⁶ For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

¹⁶ Therefore, we no longer regard man according to the flesh: though once we regarded Christ according to the flesh, yet now we regard him thus no longer. ¹⁷ Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: old things have passed away; behold, new things have come. ¹⁸ And all these things are from God, who has reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

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

¹⁰ Therefore, for Christ's sake, I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in distresses: for when I am weak, then I am strong.

¹ This is the third time I am coming to you. By the mouths of two or three witnesses must every matter be established.

²⁰ Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strife, jealousy, fits of rage, selfishness, dissensions, factions, ²¹ Envy, drunkenness, orgies, and the like: of which I forewarn you, as I have also warned you in the past, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

²⁵ If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. ²⁶ Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying one another.

¹⁴ But God forbid that I should glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

²⁰ Which he exerted in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

¹ And you were dead in trespasses and sins;

⁵ Even when we were dead in transgressions, has made us alive together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;)

⁸ Therefore it says, When he ascended on high, he led a host of captives, and gave gifts to men. ⁹ (In saying that he ascended, what does that mean but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth? ¹⁰ He who descended is the same one who ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.) ¹¹ And he gave some as apostles; and some as prophets; and some as evangelists; and some as pastors and teachers;

¹⁵ Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry; and some also from good will; ¹⁶ The later out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defence of the gospel: ¹⁷ The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my imprisonment ¹⁸ What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

³ Let nothing be done through selfishness or vain conceit; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem the others as better than himself.

¹⁴ Do all things without grumbling and disputing:

⁷ But whatever things were gain to me, those I have counted as loss for Christ. ⁸ Furthermore, I count all things as loss compared to the excellency of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may win Christ,

¹³ Brethren, I do not consider myself to have laid hold of it yet: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth to those things which are ahead, ¹⁴ I press on toward the goal for the prize, to which God has called me upward in Christ Jesus.

²¹ Who shall change our lowly body, that it may be fashioned like his glorious body, by the power which enables him even to subject all things to himself.

¹⁸ But I have received all, and abound: I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and well-pleasing to God. ¹⁹ And my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

⁴ When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then you shall also appear with him in glory. ⁵ Therefore, put to death what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

¹⁶ By hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved, thus always filling up their sins to the limit: but wrath has come upon them at last.

³ That no man should be disturbed by these afflictions: for you yourselves know that we are destined for this. ⁴ For truly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we should suffer tribulation; just as it came to pass, as you know.

⁸ Therefore, he who rejects this, does not reject man, but God, who has also given you his Holy Spirit.

⁸ Taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ They shall be punished with eternal ruin and exclusion from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; ¹⁰ When he shall come to be glorified in his saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all those who believe, including you, because our testimony among you was believed.

¹⁵ This is a trustworthy saying, and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am the foremost.

¹⁶ And beyond question, great is the mystery of godliness: He was revealed in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

⁴ For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be refused, if it is received with thanksgiving: ⁵ For it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.

⁶ But she who lives in self-indulgence is dead while she lives.

¹² And for this reason I also suffer these things: nevertheless, I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed to him until that day.

³ Therefore endure hardship, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. ⁴ No soldier on active service entangles himself with the affairs of civilian life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.

⁴ No soldier on active service entangles himself with the affairs of civilian life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.

¹² If we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he will deny us:

¹² Yes, and all who will live godly lives in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

² Preach the word; be urgent in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all patience and instruction.

⁵ But you, be steady in all things; endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

¹⁰ For Demas, having loved this present world, has forsaken me and has departed to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.

¹² Teaching us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires, and live sensibly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

¹ Therefore, we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should slip away.

³ How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? It was at first announced by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard him;

³ How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? It was at first announced by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard him; ⁴ God also bearing witness, both with signs and wonders, and with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will.

⁹ But we see Jesus, who was made for a little while lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honour because he suffered death; that he, by the grace of God, should taste death for every man.

³ For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, just as he who has built the house has more honour than the house. ⁴ For every house has been built by someone; but he who is the builder of all things is God. ⁵ And Moses was faithful in all his house, as a servant, as a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later; ⁶ But Christ was faithful as a son over his own house, whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and our joyful hope. ⁷ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you hear his voice, ⁸ Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness: ⁹ When your fathers tested me, tried me, and saw my works for forty years. ¹⁰ Therefore I was angry with that generation, and said, They always go astray in their hearts; and they have not known my ways. ¹¹ So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter my rest.

¹⁵ While it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.

¹⁹ So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

² For the gospel was preached to us, as well as to them: but the word preached did not benefit them, because it was not combined with faith in those who heard it.

¹¹ Therefore, let us labour to enter that rest, lest any man fall by following their example of disobedience.

¹³ Nor is there any creature concealed from his sight: but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

¹⁶ Therefore, let us boldly approach the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

⁷ In the days of his flesh, he offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his piety.

⁹ And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation for all those who obey him;

²⁰ Where Jesus, the forerunner, has entered for us, having become a high priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.

²⁵ Therefore, he is also able to completely save those who come to God through him, for he ever lives to make intercession for them.

³⁸ But my righteous one shall live by faith: but if any man draws back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

²⁶ Considering abuse for the sake of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he looked ahead to the reward.

³⁵ Women received their dead, raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

² Looking to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

² Looking to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. ³ For consider him who endured such hostility from sinners against himself, lest you grow weary and fainthearted. ⁴ You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood in your striving against sin. ⁵ And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as sons, My son, do not think lightly of the discipline of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by him:

²⁵ See that you do not refuse him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused him who warned them on earth, much less shall we escape, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven. ²⁶ And his voice shook the earth then: but now he has promised, saying, Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also heaven.

¹³ Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

¹⁷ Obey those who lead you, and submit to them: for they watch over your souls as those who must give account. Let it be a joyful task for them, not a sad one: for that would be unprofitable for you.

⁶ But let him ask in faith, without wavering. For he who wavers is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed. ⁷ Let not that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord, ⁸ For a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.

¹⁹ Therefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger: ²⁰ For the anger of man does not promote the righteousness of God.

⁵ Listen, my beloved brethren, Has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

¹⁰ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

¹⁴ But if you have bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. ¹⁵ This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, devilish. ¹⁶ For where there is envy and selfish ambition, there is confusion and every evil work. ¹⁷ But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. ¹⁸ And the harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

¹⁷ Elijah was a man with a nature such as we have, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. ¹⁸ And he prayed again, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.

¹¹ Seeking to find to whom and when the Spirit of Christ within them was pointing, when he testified beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow.

¹¹ Seeking to find to whom and when the Spirit of Christ within them was pointing, when he testified beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow. ¹² It was revealed to them that they did not serve themselves, but you, in the things which have now been made known to you by those who preached the gospel to you through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; things into which angels desire to look.

¹ Therefore, laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisy, and envy, and all kinds of slander, ² As newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow by it in your salvation:

²¹ For to this you were called: because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps. ²² He committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in his mouth; ²³ And when he was reviled, he did not revile in return; and when he suffered, he did not threaten; but committed himself to him who judges righteously.

⁹ Do not return evil for evil, or insult for insult: but instead with blessing; knowing that you were called to this, that you should inherit a blessing.

²² Who has gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; with angels and authorities and powers made subject to him.

¹⁴ Blessed are you if you are insulted for the name of Christ; for the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. ¹⁵ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a meddler in other men's affairs. ¹⁶ Yet if any man suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God that he bears that name.

³ Not being lords over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock. ⁴ And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a crown of glory that does not fade away.

⁶ Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, like a roaring lion, walks about, seeking someone he may devour.

¹⁰ But the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

¹⁵ Moreover, I will endeavour to see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things. ¹⁶ For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

¹⁶ For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. ¹⁷ For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came a voice to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. ¹⁸ And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him on the holy mountain.

¹⁵ Who have forsaken the right way, and have gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; ¹⁶ But was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man's voice restrained the madness of the prophet. ¹⁷ These are wells without water, mists driven before a tempest; for whom the blackest darkness is reserved.

²⁰ For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled by them, and overcome, they are worse off in the end than at the beginning. ²¹ For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. ²² But it has happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog returns to its own vomit; and the sow that is washed returns to wallowing in the mire.

² Beloved, now we are the sons of God; and what we shall be has not yet been disclosed: but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

¹ Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one who loves the parent also loves the child.

⁹ I wrote to the church: but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept us.

⁹ I wrote to the church: but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept us. ¹⁰ Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds, prating against us with malicious words: and not content with that, he refuses to welcome the brethren, and forbids those who would, and casts them out of the church.

¹⁴ And Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord comes with myriads of his holy ones,

⁷ Behold, he comes with the clouds; and every eye shall see him, even those who pierced him: and all families of the earth shall mourn because of him. Even so, Amen.

¹³ And in the midst of the seven lampstands, one like a Son of man, clothed with a garment down to his feet, and around his breast a golden girdle. ¹⁴ His head and his hair were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were like a flame of fire; ¹⁵ And his feet like burnished bronze, as if they glowed in a furnace; and his voice like the sound of many waters. ¹⁶ And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword: and his face was like the sun shining at full strength. ¹⁷ And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as if dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying to me, Do not fear; I am the first and the last,

¹⁰ Do not fear any of those things which you shall suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you shall have tribulation ten days: be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.

²³ And I will strike her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he who searches minds and hearts: and I will give to every one of you as your deeds deserve.

¹ And to the angel of the church in Sardis write; These are the words of him who has the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know your works, that you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead.

⁵ He who overcomes, the same shall be clothed in white garments; and I will not blot his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

¹⁹ As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: therefore be zealous, and repent.

²¹ To him who overcomes I will grant the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame, and sat down with my Father on his throne.

⁶ And then I beheld between the throne and the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing as if it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. ⁷ And he came and took the scroll out of the right hand of him who sat upon the throne. ⁸ And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb; each one had a harp, and they had golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. ⁹ And they sang a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the scroll, and to break its seals: for you were slain, and by your blood have purchased men for God out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation; ¹⁰ And have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God: and they shall reign upon the earth. ¹¹ And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne and the living creatures and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands upon thousands; ¹² Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

¹⁴ And I said to him, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

¹¹ And they had a king over them, the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue, Apollyon.

¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they did not love their lives to death. ¹² Therefore rejoice, you heavens, and you who live in them. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time.

³ And one of his heads seemed to have had a death-blow; but his deadly wound was healed: and all the world was astonished and followed after the beast.

⁷ As she glorified herself and lived in luxury, give to her that measure of torment and grief: for she says in her heart, I sit as a queen, and am no widow, and shall never see sorrow. ⁸ Therefore her plagues shall come in one day, pestilence, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.

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

⁸ But the cowardly, and unbelieving, and the vile, and murderers, and the sexually immoral, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and sulphur: which is the second death.

¹⁴ And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

⁴ And they shall see his face; and his name shall be upon their foreheads. ⁵ And there shall be no night there; and they shall need no lamp, nor light from the sun; for the Lord God shall give them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
