⁷ Then Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, ⁸ And from Judea, and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and from beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, having heard what great things he did, came to him.

¹² And he straitly charged them, not to make him known.

²² But the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.

⁹ And he said, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. ¹⁰ And when he was alone, they that were about him, with the twelve, asked him of the parable.

¹³ And he saith to them, Know ye not this parable? How then will ye know all parables?

²³ If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.

And they were astonished with a great astonishment. ⁴³ And he charged them straitly, that no man should know it, and commanded that something should be given her to eat.

³¹ And he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while. For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. ³² And they departed into a desert place by boat privately.

⁴¹ And taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed, and gave them to the disciples to set before them: and he divided the two fishes among them all.

⁷ But in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. ⁸ For leaving the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. ⁹ And he said to them, Full well ye abolish the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

⁹ And he said to them, Full well ye abolish the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. ¹⁰ For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother, and, Whoso revileth father or mother, he shall surely die.

¹³ Abrogating the word of God by your traditions which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.

¹⁵ There is nothing entering into a man from without, which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, these are they that defile the man.

¹⁸ And he saith to them, Are even ye so without understanding? Do ye not perceive, That whatsoever entereth into a man from without, cannot defile him,

¹⁸ And he saith to them, Are even ye so without understanding? Do ye not perceive, That whatsoever entereth into a man from without, cannot defile him, ¹⁹ Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth into the vault, purging all meats. ²⁰ And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. ²¹ For from within, out of the heart of man proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, ²² Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, envy, evil speaking, pride, foolishness. ²³ All these evils come from within, and defile the man. ²⁴ And he arose and went thence into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And entring into an house, he would have had no man know it; but he could not be hid.

¹² And sighing deeply in his spirit, he said, Why doth this generation seek a sign? Verily I say to you, There shall no sign be given to this generation.

²³ And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him out of the town, and having spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him, If he saw ought?

²⁶ And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.

¹⁷ Master, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit. ¹⁸ And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him, and he foameth and gnasheth with his teeth and pineth away. And I spake to thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not. ¹⁹ He answereth them and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? ²⁰ How long shall I suffer you? Bring him to me. And they brought him to him. And when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him, and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. ²¹ And he asked his father, How long is it since this came to him? And he said, From a little child. ²² And it hath often cast him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him; but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us and help us. ²³ Jesus saith to him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

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

¹⁹ Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.

³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? Which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

¹⁷ And on a certain day as he was teaching, there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who were come out of every town of Galilee, and out of Judea and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

²¹ But they have been informed concerning thee, that thou teachest the Jews who are among the Gentiles, to apostatize from Moses, telling them, not to circumcise their children, nor to walk after the customs.

²⁴ Take them and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all will know, that there is nothing of those things which they have heard of thee; but that thou thyself walkest orderly, keeping the law.

¹² For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord of all, is rich to all that call upon him.

¹ Him that is weak in the faith, receive; but not to doubtful disputations. ² For one believeth, that he may eat all things; another who is weak, eateth herbs. ³ Let not him that eateth, despise him that eateth not: and let not him that eateth not, judge him that eateth; for God hath received him. ⁴ Who art thou that judgest another's servant? To his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be upheld; for God is able to establish him. ⁵ One man esteemeth one day above another; another esteemeth every day alike; let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. ⁶ He that regardeth the day, regardeth it to the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord; for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks. ⁷ For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself. But if we live, we live unto the Lord; and if we die, we die unto the Lord. ⁸ Whether therefore we live or die, we are the Lord's. ⁹ For to this end Christ both died and lived again, that he might be the Lord both of the dead and of the living. ¹⁰ But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou despise thy brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of Christ. ¹¹ For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. ¹² So then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God.

¹⁴ I know and am assured by the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: but to him that accounteth any thing to be unclean, it is unclean.

¹⁷ For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

⁸ Beware lest any man make a prey of you through philosophy and empty deceit, after the traditions of men, after the rudiments of this world, and not after Christ.

¹⁶ Let none therefore judge you in meat, or drink, or in respect of a feast-day, or of the new-moon, or of sabbath-days: Which are shadow of things to come;

²¹ (Touch not, taste not, handle not:

²¹ (Touch not, taste not, handle not: ²² All which are to perish in the using) after the commandments and doctrines of men?

²² All which are to perish in the using) after the commandments and doctrines of men?

²² All which are to perish in the using) after the commandments and doctrines of men? ²³ Which things (though they have indeed a shew of wisdom, in voluntary worship and humility, and not sparing the body) yet are not of any value, but are to the satisfying of the flesh.

¹⁵ let us hold fast our profession, For we have not an high-priest who cannot sympathize with our infirmities, but who was in all points tempted like as we are: yet without sin.

¹¹ Concerning whom we have many things to say, and hard to be explained, seeing ye are become dull of hearing.

⁶ But he whose pedigree is not from them, took tythes of Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises:

¹⁰ Only with meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed till the time of reformation.

⁶ Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof. ⁷ Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come to thee; but speak in a word, and my servant shall be healed. ⁸ For I am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth, and to another, Come, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doth it.

¹⁴ And he came and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to thee, Arise.

¹⁴ And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb: and when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake, and the people wondered.

³⁸ And he went in and sat down to table. But the Pharisee seeing it, marvelled, that he had not first washed before dinner. And the Lord said to him, ³⁹ Now ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the dish; but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness.

³⁹ Now ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the dish; but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness. ⁴⁰ Ye unthinking men, did not he that made the outside, make the inside also? ⁴¹ But give what is in them in alms, and behold all things are clean to you.

⁴¹ But give what is in them in alms, and behold all things are clean to you. ⁴² But wo to you, Pharisees; for ye tythe mint and rue and all herbs; and pass by justice and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. ⁴³ Wo to you, Pharisees; for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, ⁴⁴ and salutations in the markets. Wo to you; for ye are as graves which appear not, and men that walk over them are not aware.

⁵³ And as he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began fiercely to fasten upon him, and to urge him to speak of many things, ⁵⁴ Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.

¹ In the mean time, an innumerable multitude being gathered together, so that they trod one upon another, he said to his disciples first, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

⁵⁴ And he said to the people also, When ye see a cloud rising out of the west, straitway ye say, There cometh a heavy shower, and so it is. ⁵⁵ And when ye find the south wind blowing, ye say, There will be sultry heat; and it is so. ⁵⁶ Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the earth and of the sky: how do ye not discern this season? ⁵⁷ Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?

³⁰ But as soon as this thy son was come, who hath devoured thy substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said to him, Son, thou art always with me, and all that I have is thine. ³² But it was meet to make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.

¹⁵ And he said to them, Ye are they who justify yourselves before men: but God knoweth your hearts: And that which is highly esteemed among men, is an abomination before God.

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

⁴² And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight, thy faith hath saved thee.

⁴¹ And as he drew near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

⁴⁵ Then in the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples, Beware of the scribes, ⁴⁶ who desire to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief places at feasts, ⁴⁷ Who devour widows houses, and for a pretence make long prayers; these shall receive greater damnation.

⁴¹ And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this person hath done nothing amiss.

²⁵ Then he said to them, O foolish, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

⁶ And there were set there six water-pots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three measures apiece.

¹⁰ Jesus answered and said to him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things?

²⁵ Then there arose a dispute between some of John's disciples and the Jews, about purifying.

⁵⁰ Jesus saith to him, Go: thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus spake to him, and he went. ⁵¹ And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, Thy son liveth. ⁵² Then he asked of them the hour when he amended. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

⁴² For I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not:

⁴¹ Abraham did not thus. Ye do the deeds of your father. They said to him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. ⁴² Jesus said to them, If God were your father, ye would love me; for I proceeded forth, and come from God. I am come not of myself, but He hath sent me.

⁵⁴ Whom makest thou thyself? Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me, of whom ye say, He is our God. ⁵⁵ Yet ye have not known him: but I know him. And if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you; but I know him, and keep his word.

⁶ he spit on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, ⁷ And said to him, Go wash at the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

³³ When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping who came with her, he groaned deeply,

³⁵ They say to him, Lord, come and see. Jesus wept.

³⁸ Jesus again groaning in himself, cometh to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

⁴¹ Then they took away the stone from where the dead lay. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said,

⁴³ And having spoken thus, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

²⁴ but now have they seen them, and yet hated both me and my Father.

¹ These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes and said, Father, the hour is come: glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh,

⁷ And they were amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galileans? ⁸ And how hear we every one, in our own native language? ⁹ Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and dwellers in Mesopotamia, and Judea, ¹⁰ and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Africk about Cyrene, and Roman sojourners, (Jews and Proselytes) Cretans and Arabians, ¹¹ we hear them speaking in our tongues the wonderful works of God? ¹² And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean?

¹⁰ And they knew him, that this was he who had sat for alms at the beautiful gate of the temple, and were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had befallen him. ¹¹ And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them, in the portico that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering. ¹² And Peter seeing it, answered the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? Or, why do ye fix your eyes on us, as if by our own power or piety, we had made this man to walk? ¹³ The God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his son Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and renounced him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to release him.

⁴ And to keep back part of the price of the land? While it remained, did it not remain thine? And when it was sold, was it not in thy power? Why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.

²² Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.

³⁰ And Philip running to him, heard him read the prophet Isaiah, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?

³⁴ And Peter said to him, Eneas, Jesus Christ healeth thee. Arise and make thy bed.

⁴⁰ But Peter, having put them all out, kneeled down and prayed; and turning to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, sat up.

¹⁴ But Peter said, In no wise, Lord: for I have never eaten any thing common or unclean.

¹⁴ But Peter said, In no wise, Lord: for I have never eaten any thing common or unclean. ¹⁵ And the voice came to him again, the second time, What God hath purified, call not thou common.

¹⁵ And the voice came to him again, the second time, What God hath purified, call not thou common.

¹⁵ And the voice came to him again, the second time, What God hath purified, call not thou common. ¹⁶ This was done thrice, and the vessel was taken up again to heaven.

²⁵ And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and falling down at his feet, worshiped him. ²⁶ But Peter raised him up saying, Arise: I myself also am a man.

²⁸ And he said to them, Ye know it is unlawful for a Jew to join with or come to one of another nation; but God hath shewed me, to call no man common or unclean.

⁸ But I said, In no wise, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath ever entered into my mouth.

⁸ But I said, In no wise, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath ever entered into my mouth. ⁹ And the voice from heaven answered me again, What God hath purified, call not thou common.

⁹ And the voice from heaven answered me again, What God hath purified, call not thou common. ¹⁰ This was done thrice, and all were drawn up again into heaven.

¹⁷ If then God gave to them the same gift as even to us, having believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that could withstand God? ¹⁸ When they heard these things, they were quiet, and glorified God, saying, Then God hath given to the Gentiles also repentance unto life.

¹¹ And he leaped and walked. But the multitude, seeing what Paul had done, lifted up their voice, saying, in the Lycaonian language, The gods are come down to us, in the likeness of men.

²⁰ But that we write to them, to abstain from things offered to idols and fornication, and things strangled and blood. ²¹ For Moses hath of old time them that preach him in every city, being read in the synagogues every sabbath-day.

²¹ But he said to me, Depart: for I will send thee far off to the Gentiles.

²⁵ And not agreeing with each other, they brake up the assembly, after Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by the prophet Isaiah to your fathers,

²⁹ Is God the God of the Jews only, and not also of the Gentiles? Surely of the Gentiles also: Seeing it is one God who will justify the circumcision by faith,

³¹ Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

¹² And the father of the circumcision, to them who not only are of the circumcision, but also walk in the footsteps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.

⁵ For when we were in the flesh, sinful passions, which were by the law, wrought in our members, so as to bring forth fruit unto death.

⁸ But sin taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of desire: for without the law sin was dead.

⁷ Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. ⁸ So then they who are in the flesh cannot please God.

⁸ Now I say, Christ Jesus was a servant of the circumcision, for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers:

⁸ Now I say, Christ Jesus was a servant of the circumcision, for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers: ⁹ And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy, as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.

² I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it: nor are ye now able.

¹⁷ If any man destroy the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

¹³ Meats are for the belly, and the belly for meats; yet God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

²⁵ Whatever is sold in the shambles eat, asking no questions for conscience sake.

¹⁴ And if Christ be not raised, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

⁵⁸ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not vain in the Lord.

⁵ Destroying reasonings, and every high thing which exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

¹⁴ And I profited in the Jewish religion above many of my years among my countrymen, being more abundantly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.

²¹ I do not make void the grace of God; for if righteousness is by the law, then Christ died in vain.

²⁸ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

¹⁹ Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these, adultery, fornication, ²⁰ uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, enmities, contentions, ²¹ emulations, wraths, strifes, divisions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of which I tell you before (as I have also told you in time past) that they who practise such things, shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

²¹ emulations, wraths, strifes, divisions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of which I tell you before (as I have also told you in time past) that they who practise such things, shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

¹² being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise; having no hope, and without God in the world.

¹² being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise; having no hope, and without God in the world. ¹³ But now through Christ Jesus, ye who were once far off are brought nigh by the blood of Christ. ¹⁴ For he is our peace, he who hath made both one,

⁸ Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints is this grace given, to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ.

¹¹ Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision; barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free; but Christ is all, and in all.

⁴ Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God as God, declaring himself that he is God.

⁶ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received of us.

¹¹ For we hear there are some among you who walk disorderly, doing nothing, but being busy-bodies.

¹ But the spirit saith expresly, that in the later times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils, ² By the hypocrisy of them that speak lies, having their own consciences seared as with an hot iron: ³ Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth.

³ Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth. ⁴ For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be rejected, being received with thanksgiving. ⁵ For it is sanctified by the word of God and by prayer.

⁴ and to requite their parents; for this is good and acceptable before God. ⁵ Now she that is a widow indeed and desolate, trusteth in God and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day. ⁶ But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth. ⁷ And enjoin these things, that they may be blameless. ⁸ But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own family, he hath denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.

²⁵ In like manner the good works also of some are manifest; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.

⁵ Having a form of godliness but denying the power of it.

¹⁴ Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth. ¹⁵ To the clean all things are clean; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing is clean; but both their understanding and conscience are defiled. ¹⁶ They profess to know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and void of judgment as to every good work.

³ For we also were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, inslaved to various desires and pleasures, living in wickedness and envy, hateful, hating one another:

⁹ But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

⁹ Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines; for it is good, that the heart be stablished with grace, not with meats, in which they that have walked have not been profited.

¹⁴ But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own desire and inticed. ¹⁵ Then desire having conceived, bringeth forth sin; and sin being perfected, bringeth forth death.

²⁶ If any one be ever so religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

⁴ Stand thou there, or, Sit thou here under my footstool, Ye distinguish not in yourselves, but are become evil-reasoning judges.

¹⁴ What doth it profit, my brethren, tho' a man say he hath faith, and have not works? ¹⁵ Can that faith save him? If a brother or a sister be naked, ¹⁶ and want daily food, And one of you say to them, Depart in peace; be ye warmed and filled, but give them not the things needful for the body, what doth it profit? ¹⁷ So likewise faith, if it hath not works, is dead in itself.

²⁰ But art thou willing to know, O empty man, that faith without works is dead?

⁶ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: it is the tongue among the members which defileth the whole body and setteth on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire of hell.

¹ From whence come wars and fightings among you? Is it not hence, from your pleasures that war in your members?

¹ From whence come wars and fightings among you? Is it not hence, from your pleasures that war in your members? ² Ye desire and have not, ye kill, and envy, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war; yet ye have not, because ye ask not. ³ Ye ask and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may expend it on your pleasures.

⁸ Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you: cleanse your hands, ye sinners, and purify your hearts, ye double-minded.

¹⁸ Seeing ye know ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation delivered by tradition from your fathers,

¹⁵ For so is the will of God, that by well-doing ye put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: As free,

² (for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin) That ye may no longer live the rest of your time in the flesh, to the desire of men, but to the will of God. ³ For the time past of your life sufficeth to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when ye walked in lasciviousness, evil desires, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries.

⁵ In like manner, ye younger, submit yourselves to the elder, and be ye all subject to each other. Be ye cloathed with humility; for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

⁷ But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

⁸ He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning: to this end the son of God was manifested, to destroy the works of the devil.

⁸ In like manner these dreamers also defile the flesh, despise authority, rail at dignities.

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

¹¹ He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches: He that overcometh shall not be hurt by the second death.

¹⁷ He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh will I give of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which none knoweth, but he that receiveth it.

²⁹ He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.

⁶ He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.

¹³ He that hath an ear, let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches.

²² He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.

¹¹ And the smoke of their torment ascendeth for ever and ever, and they have no rest day or night, who worship the wild beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. ¹² Here is the patience of the saints, who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

⁸ And it was I John, who heard and saw these things; and when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who shewed me these things. ⁹ But he saith to me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them who keep the sayings of this book; worship God.

¹⁸ I testify to every one that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man add to them, God shall add to him the plagues that are written in this book.
