MAT 1:1  The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son
 of Abraham.

MAT 1:2  Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and
 his brethren;

MAT 1:3  And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and
 Esrom begat Aram;

MAT 1:4  And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat
 Salmon;

MAT 1:5  And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed
 begat Jesse;

MAT 1:6  And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of
 her that had been the wife of Urias;

MAT 1:7  And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

MAT 1:8  And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat
 Ozias;

MAT 1:9  And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat
 Ezekias;

MAT 1:10  And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat
 Josias;

MAT 1:11  And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were
 carried away to Babylon:

MAT 1:12  And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel;
 and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

MAT 1:13  And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat
 Azor;

MAT 1:14  And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

MAT 1:15  And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat
 Jacob;

MAT 1:16  And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus,
 who is called Christ.

MAT 1:17  So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen
 generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen
 generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen
 generations.

MAT 1:18  Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother
 Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with
 child of the Holy Ghost.

MAT 1:19  Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make
 her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

MAT 1:20  But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD
 appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to
 take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the
 Holy Ghost.

MAT 1:21  And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:
 for he shall save his people from their sins.

MAT 1:22  Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken
 of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

MAT 1:23  Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a
 son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God
 with us.

MAT 1:24  Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had
 bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

MAT 1:25  And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he
 called his name JESUS.

MAT 2:1  Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod
 the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

MAT 2:2  Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen
 his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

MAT 2:3  When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all
 Jerusalem with him.

MAT 2:4  And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the
 people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

MAT 2:5  And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written
 by the prophet,

MAT 2:6  And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the
 princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my
 people Israel.

MAT 2:7  Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them
 diligently what time the star appeared.

MAT 2:8  And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for
 the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may
 come and worship him also.

MAT 2:9  When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which
 they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the
 young child was.

MAT 2:10  When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

MAT 2:11  And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with
 Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened
 their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and
 myrrh.

MAT 2:12  And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to
 Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

MAT 2:13  And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth
 to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his
 mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for
 Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.

MAT 2:14  When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and
 departed into Egypt:

MAT 2:15  And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled
 which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I
 called my son.

MAT 2:16  Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was
 exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in
 Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under,
 according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.

MAT 2:17  Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet,
 saying,

MAT 2:18  In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great
 mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted,
 because they are not.

MAT 2:19  But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a
 dream to Joseph in Egypt,

MAT 2:20  Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into
 the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.

MAT 2:21  And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into
 the land of Israel.

MAT 2:22  But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of
 his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned
 of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:

MAT 2:23  And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be
 fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

MAT 3:1  In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of
 Judaea,

MAT 3:2  And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

MAT 3:3  For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The
 voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make
 his paths straight.

MAT 3:4  And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern
 girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

MAT 3:5  Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region
 round about Jordan,

MAT 3:6  And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

MAT 3:7  But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his
 baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to
 flee from the wrath to come?

MAT 3:8  Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

MAT 3:9  And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father:
 for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children
 unto Abraham.

MAT 3:10  And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore
 every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into
 the fire.

MAT 3:11  I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh
 after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall
 baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

MAT 3:12  Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and
 gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with
 unquenchable fire.

MAT 3:13  Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of
 him.

MAT 3:14  But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and
 comest thou to me?

MAT 3:15  And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus
 it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

MAT 3:16  And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the
 water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of
 God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

MAT 3:17  And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I
 am well pleased.

MAT 4:1  Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted
 of the devil.

MAT 4:2  And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward
 an hungred.

MAT 4:3  And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God,
 command that these stones be made bread.

MAT 4:4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread
 alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

MAT 4:5  Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a
 pinnacle of the temple,

MAT 4:6  And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for
 it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their
 hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a
 stone.

MAT 4:7  Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the
 Lord thy God.

MAT 4:8  Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and
 sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

MAT 4:9  And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt
 fall down and worship me.

MAT 4:10  Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written,
 Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

MAT 4:11  Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered
 unto him.

MAT 4:12  Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed
 into Galilee;

MAT 4:13  And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon
 the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

MAT 4:14  That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet,
 saying,

MAT 4:15  The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the
 sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

MAT 4:16  The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which
 sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

MAT 4:17  From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the
 kingdom of heaven is at hand.

MAT 4:18  And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon
 called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they
 were fishers.

MAT 4:19  And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of
 men.

MAT 4:20  And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

MAT 4:21  And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of
 Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending
 their nets; and he called them.

MAT 4:22  And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed
 him.

MAT 4:23  And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and
 preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and
 all manner of disease among the people.

MAT 4:24  And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all
 sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those
 which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those
 that had the palsy; and he healed them.

MAT 4:25  And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and
 from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

MAT 5:1  And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was
 set, his disciples came unto him:

MAT 5:2  And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

MAT 5:3  Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 5:4  Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

MAT 5:5  Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

MAT 5:6  Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for
 they shall be filled.

MAT 5:7  Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

MAT 5:8  Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

MAT 5:9  Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of
 God.

MAT 5:10  Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for
 theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 5:11  Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and
 shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

MAT 5:12  Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven:
 for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

MAT 5:13  Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour,
 wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be
 cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

MAT 5:14  Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot
 be hid.

MAT 5:15  Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a
 candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

MAT 5:16  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good
 works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

MAT 5:17  Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am
 not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

MAT 5:18  For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one
 tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

MAT 5:19  Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and
 shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven:
 but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the
 kingdom of heaven.

MAT 5:20  For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the
 righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into
 the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 5:21  Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not
 kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

MAT 5:22  But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without
 a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his
 brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say,
 Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

MAT 5:23  Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest
 that thy brother hath ought against thee;

MAT 5:24  Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be
 reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

MAT 5:25  Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with
 him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge
 deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

MAT 5:26  Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till
 thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

MAT 5:27  Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not
 commit adultery:

MAT 5:28  But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after
 her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

MAT 5:29  And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from
 thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should
 perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

MAT 5:30  And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee:
 for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not
 that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

MAT 5:31  It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give
 her a writing of divorcement:

MAT 5:32  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving
 for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever
 shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

MAT 5:33  Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou
 shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

MAT 5:34  But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is
 God's throne:

MAT 5:35  Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for
 it is the city of the great King.

MAT 5:36  Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one
 hair white or black.

MAT 5:37  But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is
 more than these cometh of evil.

MAT 5:38  Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth
 for a tooth:

MAT 5:39  But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall
 smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

MAT 5:40  And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let
 him have thy cloak also.

MAT 5:41  And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

MAT 5:42  Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee
 turn not thou away.

MAT 5:43  Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy
 neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

MAT 5:44  But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do
 good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and
 persecute you;

MAT 5:45  That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he
 maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the
 just and on the unjust.

MAT 5:46  For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even
 the publicans the same?

MAT 5:47  And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do
 not even the publicans so?

MAT 5:48  Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is
 perfect.

MAT 6:1  Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
 otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

MAT 6:2  Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before
 thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they
 may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

MAT 6:3  But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right
 hand doeth:

MAT 6:4  That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret
 himself shall reward thee openly.

MAT 6:5  And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for
 they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the
 streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their
 reward.

MAT 6:6  But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast
 shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which
 seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

MAT 6:7  But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for
 they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

MAT 6:8  Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what
 things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

MAT 6:9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven,
 Hallowed be thy name.

MAT 6:10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

MAT 6:11  Give us this day our daily bread.

MAT 6:12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

MAT 6:13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine
 is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

MAT 6:14  For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will
 also forgive you:

MAT 6:15  But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father
 forgive your trespasses.

MAT 6:16  Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad
 countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to
 fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

MAT 6:17  But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

MAT 6:18  That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is
 in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

MAT 6:19  Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust
 doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

MAT 6:20  But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor
 rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

MAT 6:21  For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

MAT 6:22  The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single,
 thy whole body shall be full of light.

MAT 6:23  But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
 If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that
 darkness!

MAT 6:24  No man 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. Ye
 cannot serve God and mammon.

MAT 6:25  Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye
 shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put
 on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

MAT 6:26  Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap,
 nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much
 better than they?

MAT 6:27  Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

MAT 6:28  And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the
 field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

MAT 6:29  And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not
 arrayed like one of these.

MAT 6:30  Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day
 is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O
 ye of little faith?

MAT 6:31  Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall
 we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

MAT 6:32  (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly
 Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

MAT 6:33  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all
 these things shall be added unto you.

MAT 6:34  Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take
 thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil
 thereof.

MAT 7:1  Judge not, that ye be not judged.

MAT 7:2  For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what
 measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

MAT 7:3  And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but
 considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

MAT 7:4  Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of
 thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

MAT 7:5  Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then
 shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

MAT 7:6  Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls
 before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and
 rend you.

MAT 7:7  Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it
 shall be opened unto you:

MAT 7:8  For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and
 to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

MAT 7:9  Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give
 him a stone?

MAT 7:10  Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?

MAT 7:11  If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your
 children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things
 to them that ask him?

MAT 7:12  Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you,
 do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

MAT 7:13  Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is
 the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

MAT 7:14  Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto
 life, and few there be that find it.

MAT 7:15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but
 inwardly they are ravening wolves.

MAT 7:16  Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns,
 or figs of thistles?

MAT 7:17  Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree
 bringeth forth evil fruit.

MAT 7:18  A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree
 bring forth good fruit.

MAT 7:19  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast
 into the fire.

MAT 7:20  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

MAT 7:21  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
 kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in
 heaven.

MAT 7:22  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied
 in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many
 wonderful works?

MAT 7:23  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me,
 ye that work iniquity.

MAT 7:24  Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I
 will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

MAT 7:25  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and
 beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

MAT 7:26  And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not,
 shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

MAT 7:27  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and
 beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

MAT 7:28  And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people
 were astonished at his doctrine:

MAT 7:29  For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

MAT 8:1  When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed
 him.

MAT 8:2  And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if
 thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

MAT 8:3  And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou
 clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

MAT 8:4  And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew
 thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a
 testimony unto them.

MAT 8:5  And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a
 centurion, beseeching him,

MAT 8:6  And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy,
 grievously tormented.

MAT 8:7  And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

MAT 8:8  The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou
 shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall
 be healed.

MAT 8:9  For I am a man 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 doeth it.

MAT 8:10  When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed,
 Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

MAT 8:11  And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and
 shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 8:12  But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer
 darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

MAT 8:13  And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast
 believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame
 hour.

MAT 8:14  And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother
 laid, and sick of a fever.

MAT 8:15  And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and
 ministered unto them.

MAT 8:16  When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were
 possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed
 all that were sick:

MAT 8:17  That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet,
 saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

MAT 8:18  Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to
 depart unto the other side.

MAT 8:19  And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow
 thee whithersoever thou goest.

MAT 8:20  And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the
 air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

MAT 8:21  And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to
 go and bury my father.

MAT 8:22  But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

MAT 8:23  And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.

MAT 8:24  And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that
 the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.

MAT 8:25  And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us:
 we perish.

MAT 8:26  And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?
 Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

MAT 8:27  But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even
 the winds and the sea obey him!

MAT 8:28  And when he was come to the other side into the country of the
 Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs,
 exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.

MAT 8:29  And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee,
 Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?

MAT 8:30  And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.

MAT 8:31  So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to
 go away into the herd of swine.

MAT 8:32  And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went
 into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently
 down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

MAT 8:33  And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and
 told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.

MAT 8:34  And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw
 him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.

MAT 9:1  And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own
 city.

MAT 9:2  And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a
 bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of
 good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

MAT 9:3  And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man
 blasphemeth.

MAT 9:4  And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your
 hearts?

MAT 9:5  For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say,
 Arise, and walk?

MAT 9:6  But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to
 forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy
 bed, and go unto thine house.

MAT 9:7  And he arose, and departed to his house.

MAT 9:8  But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God,
 which had given such power unto men.

MAT 9:9  And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew,
 sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he
 arose, and followed him.

MAT 9:10  And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many
 publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

MAT 9:11  And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why
 eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

MAT 9:12  But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need
 not a physician, but they that are sick.

MAT 9:13  But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not
 sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to
 repentance.

MAT 9:14  Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the
 Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?

MAT 9:15  And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn,
 as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the
 bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

MAT 9:16  No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that
 which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made
 worse.

MAT 9:17  Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles
 break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new
 wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

MAT 9:18  While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain
 ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and
 lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

MAT 9:19  And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

MAT 9:20  And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood
 twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:

MAT 9:21  For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall
 be whole.

MAT 9:22  But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter,
 be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made
 whole from that hour.

MAT 9:23  And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and
 the people making a noise,

MAT 9:24  He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but
 sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

MAT 9:25  But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the
 hand, and the maid arose.

MAT 9:26  And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

MAT 9:27  And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him,
 crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

MAT 9:28  And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and
 Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto
 him, Yea, Lord.

MAT 9:29  Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it
 unto you.

MAT 9:30  And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying,
 See that no man know it.

MAT 9:31  But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that
 country.

MAT 9:32  As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed
 with a devil.

MAT 9:33  And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes
 marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

MAT 9:34  But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince
 of the devils.

MAT 9:35  And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their
 synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every
 sickness and every disease among the people.

MAT 9:36  But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them,
 because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

MAT 9:37  Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but
 the labourers are few;

MAT 9:38  Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth
 labourers into his harvest.

MAT 10:1  And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them
 power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of
 sickness and all manner of disease.

MAT 10:2  Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who
 is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John
 his brother;

MAT 10:3  Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the
 son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

MAT 10:4  Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

MAT 10:5  These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not
 into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye
 not:

MAT 10:6  But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

MAT 10:7  And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

MAT 10:8  Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils:
 freely ye have received, freely give.

MAT 10:9  Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,

MAT 10:10  Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor
 yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

MAT 10:11  And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it
 is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

MAT 10:12  And when ye come into an house, salute it.

MAT 10:13  And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it
 be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

MAT 10:14  And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye
 depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

MAT 10:15  Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of
 Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

MAT 10:16  Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye
 therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

MAT 10:17  But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and
 they will scourge you in their synagogues;

MAT 10:18  And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for
 a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

MAT 10:19  But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall
 speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

MAT 10:20  For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which
 speaketh in you.

MAT 10:21  And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the
 father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and
 cause them to be put to death.

MAT 10:22  And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that
 endureth to the end shall be saved.

MAT 10:23  But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for
 verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till
 the Son of man be come.

MAT 10:24  The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his
 lord.

MAT 10:25  It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the
 servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub,
 how much more shall they call them of his household?

MAT 10:26  Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall
 not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

MAT 10:27  What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye
 hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.

MAT 10:28  And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the
 soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in
 hell.

MAT 10:29  Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not
 fall on the ground without your Father.

MAT 10:30  But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

MAT 10:31  Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

MAT 10:32  Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess
 also before my Father which is in heaven.

MAT 10:33  But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before
 my Father which is in heaven.

MAT 10:34  Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send
 peace, but a sword.

MAT 10:35  For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the
 daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in
 law.

MAT 10:36  And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

MAT 10:37  He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me:
 and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

MAT 10:38  And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not
 worthy of me.

MAT 10:39  He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life
 for my sake shall find it.

MAT 10:40  He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me
 receiveth him that sent me.

MAT 10:41  He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a
 prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a
 righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

MAT 10:42  And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a
 cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he
 shall in no wise lose his reward.

MAT 11:1  And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his
 twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.

MAT 11:2  Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent
 two of his disciples,

MAT 11:3  And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for
 another?

MAT 11:4  Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those
 things which ye do hear and see:

MAT 11:5  The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are
 cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the
 gospel preached to them.

MAT 11:6  And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

MAT 11:7  And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes
 concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken
 with the wind?

MAT 11:8  But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment?
 behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.

MAT 11:9  But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and
 more than a prophet.

MAT 11:10  For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger
 before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

MAT 11:11  Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath
 not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least
 in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

MAT 11:12  And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of
 heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

MAT 11:13  For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

MAT 11:14  And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come.

MAT 11:15  He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

MAT 11:16  But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto
 children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows,

MAT 11:17  And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have
 mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.

MAT 11:18  For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a
 devil.

MAT 11:19  The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man
 gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom
 is justified of her children.

MAT 11:20  Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works
 were done, because they repented not:

MAT 11:21  Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty
 works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would
 have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

MAT 11:22  But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at
 the day of judgment, than for you.

MAT 11:23  And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought
 down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been
 done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

MAT 11:24  But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of
 Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

MAT 11:25  At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord
 of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and
 prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.

MAT 11:26  Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.

MAT 11:27  All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth
 the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the
 Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

MAT 11:28  Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will
 give you rest.

MAT 11:29  Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in
 heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

MAT 11:30  For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

MAT 12:1  At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his
 disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat.

MAT 12:2  But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy
 disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

MAT 12:3  But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was
 an hungred, and they that were with him;

MAT 12:4  How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread,
 which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him,
 but only for the priests?

MAT 12:5  Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the
 priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?

MAT 12:6  But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the
 temple.

MAT 12:7  But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not
 sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.

MAT 12:8  For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

MAT 12:9  And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:

MAT 12:10  And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they
 asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might
 accuse him.

MAT 12:11  And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall
 have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay
 hold on it, and lift it out?

MAT 12:12  How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful
 to do well on the sabbath days.

MAT 12:13  Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched
 it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.

MAT 12:14  Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how
 they might destroy him.

MAT 12:15  But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great
 multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

MAT 12:16  And charged them that they should not make him known:

MAT 12:17  That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet,
 saying,

MAT 12:18  Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul
 is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment
 to the Gentiles.

MAT 12:19  He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice
 in the streets.

MAT 12:20  A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not
 quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.

MAT 12:21  And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

MAT 12:22  Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and
 dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.

MAT 12:23  And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of
 David?

MAT 12:24  But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not
 cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.

MAT 12:25  And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom
 divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house
 divided against itself shall not stand:

MAT 12:26  And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how
 shall then his kingdom stand?

MAT 12:27  And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast
 them out? therefore they shall be your judges.

MAT 12:28  But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of
 God is come unto you.

MAT 12:29  Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his
 goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.

MAT 12:30  He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with
 me scattereth abroad.

MAT 12:31  Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be
 forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be
 forgiven unto men.

MAT 12:32  And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be
 forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be
 forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

MAT 12:33  Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree
 corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.

MAT 12:34  O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things?
 for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

MAT 12:35  A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good
 things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

MAT 12:36  But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they
 shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

MAT 12:37  For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou
 shalt be condemned.

MAT 12:38  Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying,
 Master, we would see a sign from thee.

MAT 12:39  But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous
 generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but
 the sign of the prophet Jonas:

MAT 12:40  For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly;
 so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the
 earth.

MAT 12:41  The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and
 shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and,
 behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

MAT 12:42  The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this
 generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts
 of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than
 Solomon is here.

MAT 12:43  When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry
 places, seeking rest, and findeth none.

MAT 12:44  Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out;
 and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

MAT 12:45  Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more
 wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of
 that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked
 generation.

MAT 12:46  While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his
 brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.

MAT 12:47  Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand
 without, desiring to speak with thee.

MAT 12:48  But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother?
 and who are my brethren?

MAT 12:49  And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said,
 Behold my mother and my brethren!

MAT 12:50  For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the
 same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

MAT 13:1  The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

MAT 13:2  And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went
 into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

MAT 13:3  And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a
 sower went forth to sow;

MAT 13:4  And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls
 came and devoured them up:

MAT 13:5  Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and
 forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

MAT 13:6  And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no
 root, they withered away.

MAT 13:7  And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked
 them:

MAT 13:8  But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an
 hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

MAT 13:9  Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

MAT 13:10  And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto
 them in parables?

MAT 13:11  He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know
 the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

MAT 13:12  For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more
 abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he
 hath.

MAT 13:13  Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not;
 and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

MAT 13:14  And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By
 hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and
 shall not perceive:

MAT 13:15  For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of
 hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see
 with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their
 heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

MAT 13:16  But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they
 hear.

MAT 13:17  For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have
 desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear
 those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

MAT 13:18  Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

MAT 13:19  When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it
 not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his
 heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

MAT 13:20  But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that
 heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

MAT 13:21  Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when
 tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is
 offended.

MAT 13:22  He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the
 word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the
 word, and he becometh unfruitful.

MAT 13:23  But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth
 the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth,
 some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

MAT 13:24  Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of
 heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

MAT 13:25  But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the
 wheat, and went his way.

MAT 13:26  But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then
 appeared the tares also.

MAT 13:27  So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir,
 didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

MAT 13:28  He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto
 him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

MAT 13:29  But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also
 the wheat with them.

MAT 13:30  Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest
 I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them
 in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

MAT 13:31  Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of
 heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his
 field:

MAT 13:32  Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is
 the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air
 come and lodge in the branches thereof.

MAT 13:33  Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like
 unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the
 whole was leavened.

MAT 13:34  All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and
 without a parable spake he not unto them:

MAT 13:35  That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
 I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept
 secret from the foundation of the world.

MAT 13:36  Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his
 disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares
 of the field.

MAT 13:37  He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the
 Son of man;

MAT 13:38  The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the
 kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

MAT 13:39  The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end
 of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

MAT 13:40  As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall
 it be in the end of this world.

MAT 13:41  The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather
 out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

MAT 13:42  And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing
 and gnashing of teeth.

MAT 13:43  Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom
 of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

MAT 13:44  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field;
 the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and
 selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

MAT 13:45  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking
 goodly pearls:

MAT 13:46  Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all
 that he had, and bought it.

MAT 13:47  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into
 the sea, and gathered of every kind:

MAT 13:48  Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and
 gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

MAT 13:49  So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come
 forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

MAT 13:50  And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing
 and gnashing of teeth.

MAT 13:51  Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say
 unto him, Yea, Lord.

MAT 13:52  Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed
 unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which
 bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.

MAT 13:53  And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he
 departed thence.

MAT 13:54  And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their
 synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man
 this wisdom, and these mighty works?

MAT 13:55  Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and
 his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

MAT 13:56  And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man
 all these things?

MAT 13:57  And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet
 is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

MAT 13:58  And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

MAT 14:1  At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

MAT 14:2  And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen
 from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.

MAT 14:3  For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison
 for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.

MAT 14:4  For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

MAT 14:5  And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude,
 because they counted him as a prophet.

MAT 14:6  But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced
 before them, and pleased Herod.

MAT 14:7  Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would
 ask.

MAT 14:8  And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here
 John Baptist's head in a charger.

MAT 14:9  And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them
 which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.

MAT 14:10  And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.

MAT 14:11  And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and
 she brought it to her mother.

MAT 14:12  And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and
 went and told Jesus.

MAT 14:13  When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert
 place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot
 out of the cities.

MAT 14:14  And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with
 compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.

MAT 14:15  And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is
 a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they
 may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.

MAT 14:16  But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

MAT 14:17  And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

MAT 14:18  He said, Bring them hither to me.

MAT 14:19  And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took
 the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he
 blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples
 to the multitude.

MAT 14:20  And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the
 fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

MAT 14:21  And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women
 and children.

MAT 14:22  And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a
 ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes
 away.

MAT 14:23  And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain
 apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

MAT 14:24  But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for
 the wind was contrary.

MAT 14:25  And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking
 on the sea.

MAT 14:26  And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were
 troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

MAT 14:27  But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it
 is I; be not afraid.

MAT 14:28  And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come
 unto thee on the water.

MAT 14:29  And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he
 walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

MAT 14:30  But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to
 sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

MAT 14:31  And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and
 said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

MAT 14:32  And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.

MAT 14:33  Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of
 a truth thou art the Son of God.

MAT 14:34  And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

MAT 14:35  And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out
 into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were
 diseased;

MAT 14:36  And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment:
 and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

MAT 15:1  Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem,
 saying,

MAT 15:2  Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they
 wash not their hands when they eat bread.

MAT 15:3  But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the
 commandment of God by your tradition?

MAT 15:4  For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that
 curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

MAT 15:5  But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a
 gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

MAT 15:6  And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have
 ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

MAT 15:7  Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

MAT 15:8  This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me
 with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

MAT 15:9  But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the
 commandments of men.

MAT 15:10  And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and
 understand:

MAT 15:11  Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which
 cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

MAT 15:12  Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the
 Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

MAT 15:13  But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath
 not planted, shall be rooted up.

MAT 15:14  Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind
 lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

MAT 15:15  Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.

MAT 15:16  And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?

MAT 15:17  Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth
 goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?

MAT 15:18  But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the
 heart; and they defile the man.

MAT 15:19  For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries,
 fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:

MAT 15:20  These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen
 hands defileth not a man.

MAT 15:21  Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and
 Sidon.

MAT 15:22  And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and
 cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my
 daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.

MAT 15:23  But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought
 him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.

MAT 15:24  But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep
 of the house of Israel.

MAT 15:25  Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.

MAT 15:26  But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's
 bread, and to cast it to dogs.

MAT 15:27  And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall
 from their masters' table.

MAT 15:28  Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith:
 be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that
 very hour.

MAT 15:29  And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of
 Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.

MAT 15:30  And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were
 lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus'
 feet; and he healed them:

MAT 15:31  Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to
 speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and
 they glorified the God of Israel.

MAT 15:32  Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have
 compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days,
 and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they
 faint in the way.

MAT 15:33  And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread
 in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

MAT 15:34  And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said,
 Seven, and a few little fishes.

MAT 15:35  And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

MAT 15:36  And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and
 brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

MAT 15:37  And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the
 broken meat that was left seven baskets full.

MAT 15:38  And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and
 children.

MAT 15:39  And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the
 coasts of Magdala.

MAT 16:1  The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him
 that he would shew them a sign from heaven.

MAT 16:2  He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will
 be fair weather: for the sky is red.

MAT 16:3  And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is
 red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but
 can ye not discern the signs of the times?

MAT 16:4  A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there
 shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he
 left them, and departed.

MAT 16:5  And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had
 forgotten to take bread.

MAT 16:6  Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the
 Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

MAT 16:7  And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have
 taken no bread.

MAT 16:8  Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith,
 why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?

MAT 16:9  Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the
 five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

MAT 16:10  Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets
 ye took up?

MAT 16:11  How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you
 concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and
 of the Sadducees?

MAT 16:12  Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven
 of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

MAT 16:13  When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his
 disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

MAT 16:14  And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias;
 and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

MAT 16:15  He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

MAT 16:16  And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son
 of the living God.

MAT 16:17  And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon
 Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father
 which is in heaven.

MAT 16:18  And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I
 will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

MAT 16:19  And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and
 whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever
 thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

MAT 16:20  Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he
 was Jesus the Christ.

MAT 16:21  From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how
 that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and
 chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

MAT 16:22  Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from
 thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.

MAT 16:23  But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou
 art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but
 those that be of men.

MAT 16:24  Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me,
 let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

MAT 16:25  For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will
 lose his life for my sake shall find it.

MAT 16:26  For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and
 lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

MAT 16:27  For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his
 angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

MAT 16:28  Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not
 taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

MAT 17:1  And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his
 brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

MAT 17:2  And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the
 sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

MAT 17:3  And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with
 him.

MAT 17:4  Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to
 be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and
 one for Moses, and one for Elias.

MAT 17:5  While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and
 behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom
 I am well pleased; hear ye him.

MAT 17:6  And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were
 sore afraid.

MAT 17:7  And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

MAT 17:8  And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus
 only.

MAT 17:9  And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying,
 Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

MAT 17:10  And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that
 Elias must first come?

MAT 17:11  And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first
 come, and restore all things.

MAT 17:12  But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him
 not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the
 Son of man suffer of them.

MAT 17:13  Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the
 Baptist.

MAT 17:14  And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a
 certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,

MAT 17:15  Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for
 ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

MAT 17:16  And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.

MAT 17:17  Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation,
 how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither
 to me.

MAT 17:18  And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the
 child was cured from that very hour.

MAT 17:19  Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we
 cast him out?

MAT 17:20  And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say
 unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this
 mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing
 shall be impossible unto you.

MAT 17:21  Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

MAT 17:22  And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of
 man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:

MAT 17:23  And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again.
 And they were exceeding sorry.

MAT 17:24  And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute
 money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

MAT 17:25  He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented
 him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth
 take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?

MAT 17:26  Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are
 the children free.

MAT 17:27  Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and
 cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast
 opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto
 them for me and thee.

MAT 18:1  At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the
 greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

MAT 18:2  And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst
 of them,

MAT 18:3  And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become
 as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 18:4  Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the
 same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 18:5  And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth
 me.

MAT 18:6  But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me,
 it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that
 he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

MAT 18:7  Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that
 offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

MAT 18:8  Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast
 them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed,
 rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

MAT 18:9  And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it
 is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two
 eyes to be cast into hell fire.

MAT 18:10  Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say
 unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father
 which is in heaven.

MAT 18:11  For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

MAT 18:12  How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be
 gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the
 mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

MAT 18:13  And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth
 more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

MAT 18:14  Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that
 one of these little ones should perish.

MAT 18:15  Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him
 his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained
 thy brother.

MAT 18:16  But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more,
 that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

MAT 18:17  And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but
 if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and
 a publican.

MAT 18:18  Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be
 bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in
 heaven.

MAT 18:19  Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as
 touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my
 Father which is in heaven.

MAT 18:20  For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I
 in the midst of them.

MAT 18:21  Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin
 against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

MAT 18:22  Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but,
 Until seventy times seven.

MAT 18:23  Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king,
 which would take account of his servants.

MAT 18:24  And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which
 owed him ten thousand talents.

MAT 18:25  But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be
 sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be
 made.

MAT 18:26  The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord,
 have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

MAT 18:27  Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed
 him, and forgave him the debt.

MAT 18:28  But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants,
 which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by
 the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

MAT 18:29  And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him,
 saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

MAT 18:30  And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should
 pay the debt.

MAT 18:31  So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very
 sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

MAT 18:32  Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou
 wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

MAT 18:33  Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant,
 even as I had pity on thee?

MAT 18:34  And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he
 should pay all that was due unto him.

MAT 18:35  So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from
 your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

MAT 19:1  And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he
 departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;

MAT 19:2  And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

MAT 19:3  The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him,
 Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

MAT 19:4  And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which
 made them at the beginning made them male and female,

MAT 19:5  And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and
 shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

MAT 19:6  Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God
 hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

MAT 19:7  They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of
 divorcement, and to put her away?

MAT 19:8  He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts
 suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

MAT 19:9  And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be
 for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso
 marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

MAT 19:10  His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his
 wife, it is not good to marry.

MAT 19:11  But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they
 to whom it is given.

MAT 19:12  For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's
 womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there
 be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's
 sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

MAT 19:13  Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put
 his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

MAT 19:14  But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come
 unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 19:15  And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.

MAT 19:16  And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good
 thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

MAT 19:17  And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good
 but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the
 commandments.

MAT 19:18  He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou
 shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false
 witness,

MAT 19:19  Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
 as thyself.

MAT 19:20  The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my
 youth up: what lack I yet?

MAT 19:21  Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou
 hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come
 and follow me.

MAT 19:22  But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful:
 for he had great possessions.

MAT 19:23  Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a
 rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.

MAT 19:24  And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the
 eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

MAT 19:25  When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying,
 Who then can be saved?

MAT 19:26  But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is
 impossible; but with God all things are possible.

MAT 19:27  Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken
 all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?

MAT 19:28  And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have
 followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne
 of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve
 tribes of Israel.

MAT 19:29  And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or
 father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall
 receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

MAT 19:30  But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

MAT 20:1  For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder,
 which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.

MAT 20:2  And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent
 them into his vineyard.

MAT 20:3  And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle
 in the marketplace,

MAT 20:4  And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is
 right I will give you. And they went their way.

MAT 20:5  Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.

MAT 20:6  And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing
 idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?

MAT 20:7  They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them,
 Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.

MAT 20:8  So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his
 steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the
 last unto the first.

MAT 20:9  And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they
 received every man a penny.

MAT 20:10  But when the first came, they supposed that they should have
 received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.

MAT 20:11  And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman
 of the house,

MAT 20:12  Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made
 them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.

MAT 20:13  But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong:
 didst not thou agree with me for a penny?

MAT 20:14  Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even
 as unto thee.

MAT 20:15  Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine
 eye evil, because I am good?

MAT 20:16  So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called,
 but few chosen.

MAT 20:17  And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart
 in the way, and said unto them,

MAT 20:18  Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed
 unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to
 death,

MAT 20:19  And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and
 to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.

MAT 20:20  Then came to him the mother of Zebedees children with her sons,
 worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.

MAT 20:21  And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that
 these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the
 left, in thy kingdom.

MAT 20:22  But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to
 drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism
 that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.

MAT 20:23  And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be
 baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right
 hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for
 whom it is prepared of my Father.

MAT 20:24  And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against
 the two brethren.

MAT 20:25  But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes
 of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise
 authority upon them.

MAT 20:26  But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among
 you, let him be your minister;

MAT 20:27  And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

MAT 20:28  Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to
 minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

MAT 20:29  And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

MAT 20:30  And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard
 that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son
 of David.

MAT 20:31  And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their
 peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of
 David.

MAT 20:32  And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that
 I shall do unto you?

MAT 20:33  They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

MAT 20:34  So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and
 immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.

MAT 21:1  And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage,
 unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

MAT 21:2  Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and
 straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and
 bring them unto me.

MAT 21:3  And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need
 of them; and straightway he will send them.

MAT 21:4  All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the
 prophet, saying,

MAT 21:5  Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee,
 meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

MAT 21:6  And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

MAT 21:7  And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and
 they set him thereon.

MAT 21:8  And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others
 cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

MAT 21:9  And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried,
 saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name
 of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

MAT 21:10  And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying,
 Who is this?

MAT 21:11  And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of
 Galilee.

MAT 21:12  And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that
 sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers,
 and the seats of them that sold doves,

MAT 21:13  And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the
 house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

MAT 21:14  And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed
 them.

MAT 21:15  And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that
 he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son
 of David; they were sore displeased,

MAT 21:16  And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto
 them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou
 hast perfected praise?

MAT 21:17  And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he
 lodged there.

MAT 21:18  Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.

MAT 21:19  And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found
 nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee
 henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.

MAT 21:20  And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is
 the fig tree withered away!

MAT 21:21  Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have
 faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig
 tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be
 thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.

MAT 21:22  And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye
 shall receive.

MAT 21:23  And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the
 elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what
 authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?

MAT 21:24  And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one
 thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I
 do these things.

MAT 21:25  The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they
 reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say
 unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?

MAT 21:26  But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John
 as a prophet.

MAT 21:27  And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto
 them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

MAT 21:28  But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the
 first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.

MAT 21:29  He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and
 went.

MAT 21:30  And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and
 said, I go, sir: and went not.

MAT 21:31  Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him,
 The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans
 and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

MAT 21:32  For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed
 him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had
 seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

MAT 21:33  Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted
 a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and
 built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

MAT 21:34  And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants
 to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

MAT 21:35  And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed
 another, and stoned another.

MAT 21:36  Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto
 them likewise.

MAT 21:37  But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will
 reverence my son.

MAT 21:38  But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves,
 This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

MAT 21:39  And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

MAT 21:40  When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto
 those husbandmen?

MAT 21:41  They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and
 will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the
 fruits in their seasons.

MAT 21:42  Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The
 stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner:
 this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

MAT 21:43  Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from
 you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

MAT 21:44  And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on
 whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

MAT 21:45  And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables,
 they perceived that he spake of them.

MAT 21:46  But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude,
 because they took him for a prophet.

MAT 22:1  And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,

MAT 22:2  The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a
 marriage for his son,

MAT 22:3  And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the
 wedding: and they would not come.

MAT 22:4  Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are
 bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are
 killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.

MAT 22:5  But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm,
 another to his merchandise:

MAT 22:6  And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and
 slew them.

MAT 22:7  But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his
 armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

MAT 22:8  Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which
 were bidden were not worthy.

MAT 22:9  Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid
 to the marriage.

MAT 22:10  So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together
 all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished
 with guests.

MAT 22:11  And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man
 which had not on a wedding garment:

MAT 22:12  And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having
 a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

MAT 22:13  Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take
 him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and
 gnashing of teeth.

MAT 22:14  For many are called, but few are chosen.

MAT 22:15  Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle
 him in his talk.

MAT 22:16  And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians,
 saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in
 truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of
 men.

MAT 22:17  Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute
 unto Caesar, or not?

MAT 22:18  But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye
 hypocrites?

MAT 22:19  Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.

MAT 22:20  And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?

MAT 22:21  They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render
 therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things
 that are God's.

MAT 22:22  When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and
 went their way.

MAT 22:23  The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no
 resurrection, and asked him,

MAT 22:24  Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his
 brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

MAT 22:25  Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had
 married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his
 brother:

MAT 22:26  Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.

MAT 22:27  And last of all the woman died also.

MAT 22:28  Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven?
 for they all had her.

MAT 22:29  Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the
 scriptures, nor the power of God.

MAT 22:30  For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in
 marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

MAT 22:31  But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that
 which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

MAT 22:32  I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
 God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

MAT 22:33  And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his
 doctrine.

MAT 22:34  But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to
 silence, they were gathered together.

MAT 22:35  Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting
 him, and saying,

MAT 22:36  Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

MAT 22:37  Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy
 heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

MAT 22:38  This is the first and great commandment.

MAT 22:39  And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
 thyself.

MAT 22:40  On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

MAT 22:41  While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

MAT 22:42  Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him,
 The son of David.

MAT 22:43  He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord,
 saying,

MAT 22:44  The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make
 thine enemies thy footstool?

MAT 22:45  If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

MAT 22:46  And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from
 that day forth ask him any more questions.

MAT 23:1  Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

MAT 23:2  Saying The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:

MAT 23:3  All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do;
 but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

MAT 23:4  For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on
 men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their
 fingers.

MAT 23:5  But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad
 their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,

MAT 23:6  And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the
 synagogues,

MAT 23:7  And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

MAT 23:8  But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and
 all ye are brethren.

MAT 23:9  And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father,
 which is in heaven.

MAT 23:10  Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.

MAT 23:11  But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

MAT 23:12  And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall
 humble himself shall be exalted.

MAT 23:13  But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up
 the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither
 suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

MAT 23:14  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour
 widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall
 receive the greater damnation.

MAT 23:15  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea
 and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more
 the child of hell than yourselves.

MAT 23:16  Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by
 the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the
 temple, he is a debtor!

MAT 23:17  Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple
 that sanctifieth the gold?

MAT 23:18  And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but
 whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.

MAT 23:19  Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar
 that sanctifieth the gift?

MAT 23:20  Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all
 things thereon.

MAT 23:21  And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that
 dwelleth therein.

MAT 23:22  And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of
 God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

MAT 23:23  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of
 mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law,
 judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the
 other undone.

MAT 23:24  Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.

MAT 23:25  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean
 the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of
 extortion and excess.

MAT 23:26  Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and
 platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

MAT 23:27  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like
 unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within
 full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.

MAT 23:28  Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye
 are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

MAT 23:29  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build
 the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

MAT 23:30  And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not
 have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

MAT 23:31  Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children
 of them which killed the prophets.

MAT 23:32  Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.

MAT 23:33  Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the
 damnation of hell?

MAT 23:34  Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and
 scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall
 ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:

MAT 23:35  That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth,
 from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of
 Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.

MAT 23:36  Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this
 generation.

MAT 23:37  O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest
 them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children
 together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would
 not!

MAT 23:38  Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.

MAT 23:39  For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall
 say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

MAT 24:1  And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples
 came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

MAT 24:2  And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say
 unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not
 be thrown down.

MAT 24:3  And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him
 privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the
 sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

MAT 24:4  And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive
 you.

MAT 24:5  For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall
 deceive many.

MAT 24:6  And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not
 troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

MAT 24:7  For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
 and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers
 places.

MAT 24:8  All these are the beginning of sorrows.

MAT 24:9  Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you:
 and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

MAT 24:10  And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and
 shall hate one another.

MAT 24:11  And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

MAT 24:12  And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

MAT 24:13  But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

MAT 24:14  And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world
 for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

MAT 24:15  When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of
 by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him
 understand:)

MAT 24:16  Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

MAT 24:17  Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out
 of his house:

MAT 24:18  Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his
 clothes.

MAT 24:19  And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in
 those days!

MAT 24:20  But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the
 sabbath day:

MAT 24:21  For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the
 beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

MAT 24:22  And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be
 saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

MAT 24:23  Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there;
 believe it not.

MAT 24:24  For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall
 shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
 deceive the very elect.

MAT 24:25  Behold, I have told you before.

MAT 24:26  Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert;
 go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

MAT 24:27  For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto
 the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

MAT 24:28  For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered
 together.

MAT 24:29  Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be
 darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall
 from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

MAT 24:30  And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then
 shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man
 coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

MAT 24:31  And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and
 they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of
 heaven to the other.

MAT 24:32  Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet
 tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

MAT 24:33  So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is
 near, even at the doors.

MAT 24:34  Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all
 these things be fulfilled.

MAT 24:35  Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

MAT 24:36  But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of
 heaven, but my Father only.

MAT 24:37  But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of
 man be.

MAT 24:38  For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and
 drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered
 into the ark,

MAT 24:39  And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall
 also the coming of the Son of man be.

MAT 24:40  Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the
 other left.

MAT 24:41  Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and
 the other left.

MAT 24:42  Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

MAT 24:43  But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what
 watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have
 suffered his house to be broken up.

MAT 24:44  Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the
 Son of man cometh.

MAT 24:45  Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made
 ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

MAT 24:46  Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so
 doing.

MAT 24:47  Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his
 goods.

MAT 24:48  But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord
 delayeth his coming;

MAT 24:49  And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink
 with the drunken;

MAT 24:50  The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for
 him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

MAT 24:51  And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the
 hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

MAT 25:1  Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which
 took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

MAT 25:2  And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

MAT 25:3  They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

MAT 25:4  But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

MAT 25:5  While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

MAT 25:6  And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh;
 go ye out to meet him.

MAT 25:7  Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

MAT 25:8  And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our
 lamps are gone out.

MAT 25:9  But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for
 us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

MAT 25:10  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were
 ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

MAT 25:11  Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to
 us.

MAT 25:12  But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

MAT 25:13  Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein
 the Son of man cometh.

MAT 25:14  For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country,
 who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

MAT 25:15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another
 one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his
 journey.

MAT 25:16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the
 same, and made them other five talents.

MAT 25:17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

MAT 25:18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid
 his lord's money.

MAT 25:19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth
 with them.

MAT 25:20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five
 talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have
 gained beside them five talents more.

MAT 25:21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant:
 thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many
 things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

MAT 25:22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou
 deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents
 beside them.

MAT 25:23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou
 hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many
 things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

MAT 25:24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I
 knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and
 gathering where thou hast not strawed:

MAT 25:25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth:
 lo, there thou hast that is thine.

MAT 25:26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful
 servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have
 not strawed:

MAT 25:27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and
 then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

MAT 25:28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath
 ten talents.

MAT 25:29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have
 abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he
 hath.

MAT 25:30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there
 shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

MAT 25:31  When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels
 with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

MAT 25:32  And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate
 them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

MAT 25:33  And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the
 left.

MAT 25:34  Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye
 blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the
 foundation of the world:

MAT 25:35  For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye
 gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

MAT 25:36  Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
 prison, and ye came unto me.

MAT 25:37  Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee
 an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

MAT 25:38  When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed
 thee?

MAT 25:39  Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

MAT 25:40  And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,
 Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye
 have done it unto me.

MAT 25:41  Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me,
 ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

MAT 25:42  For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye
 gave me no drink:

MAT 25:43  I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me
 not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

MAT 25:44  Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
 hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did
 not minister unto thee?

MAT 25:45  Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch
 as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

MAT 25:46  And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the
 righteous into life eternal.

MAT 26:1  And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he
 said unto his disciples,

MAT 26:2  Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son
 of man is betrayed to be crucified.

MAT 26:3  Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the
 elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called
 Caiaphas,

MAT 26:4  And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.

MAT 26:5  But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among
 the people.

MAT 26:6  Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

MAT 26:7  There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious
 ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.

MAT 26:8  But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what
 purpose is this waste?

MAT 26:9  For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the
 poor.

MAT 26:10  When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the
 woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

MAT 26:11  For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.

MAT 26:12  For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for
 my burial.

MAT 26:13  Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached
 in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told
 for a memorial of her.

MAT 26:14  Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief
 priests,

MAT 26:15  And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him
 unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.

MAT 26:16  And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

MAT 26:17  Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples
 came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to
 eat the passover?

MAT 26:18  And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The
 Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with
 my disciples.

MAT 26:19  And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made
 ready the passover.

MAT 26:20  Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.

MAT 26:21  And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you
 shall betray me.

MAT 26:22  And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to
 say unto him, Lord, is it I?

MAT 26:23  And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the
 dish, the same shall betray me.

MAT 26:24  The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man
 by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had
 not been born.

MAT 26:25  Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I?
 He said unto him, Thou hast said.

MAT 26:26  And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake
 it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

MAT 26:27  And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying,
 Drink ye all of it;

MAT 26:28  For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many
 for the remission of sins.

MAT 26:29  But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the
 vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

MAT 26:30  And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of
 Olives.

MAT 26:31  Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me
 this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep
 of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

MAT 26:32  But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

MAT 26:33  Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended
 because of thee, yet will I never be offended.

MAT 26:34  Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before
 the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

MAT 26:35  Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not
 deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

MAT 26:36  Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and
 saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.

MAT 26:37  And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to
 be sorrowful and very heavy.

MAT 26:38  Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto
 death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.

MAT 26:39  And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed,
 saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me:
 nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

MAT 26:40  And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith
 unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?

MAT 26:41  Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed
 is willing, but the flesh is weak.

MAT 26:42  He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father,
 if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.

MAT 26:43  And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.

MAT 26:44  And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time,
 saying the same words.

MAT 26:45  Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on
 now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is
 betrayed into the hands of sinners.

MAT 26:46  Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

MAT 26:47  And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with
 him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and
 elders of the people.

MAT 26:48  Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I
 shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.

MAT 26:49  And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed
 him.

MAT 26:50  And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came
 they, and laid hands on Jesus and took him.

MAT 26:51  And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his
 hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and
 smote off his ear.

MAT 26:52  Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for
 all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

MAT 26:53  Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall
 presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

MAT 26:54  But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must
 be?

MAT 26:55  In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as
 against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you
 teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.

MAT 26:56  But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be
 fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

MAT 26:57  And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the
 high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

MAT 26:58  But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and
 went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.

MAT 26:59  Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false
 witness against Jesus, to put him to death;

MAT 26:60  But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found
 they none. At the last came two false witnesses,

MAT 26:61  And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of
 God, and to build it in three days.

MAT 26:62  And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou
 nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

MAT 26:63  But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto
 him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the
 Christ, the Son of God.

MAT 26:64  Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you,
 Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and
 coming in the clouds of heaven.

MAT 26:65  Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken
 blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard
 his blasphemy.

MAT 26:66  What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.

MAT 26:67  Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote
 him with the palms of their hands,

MAT 26:68  Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?

MAT 26:69  Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him,
 saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.

MAT 26:70  But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.

MAT 26:71  And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and
 said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.

MAT 26:72  And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.

MAT 26:73  And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to
 Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.

MAT 26:74  Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And
 immediately the cock crew.

MAT 26:75  And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before
 the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

MAT 27:1  When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the
 people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

MAT 27:2  And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to
 Pontius Pilate the governor.

MAT 27:3  Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was
 condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver
 to the chief priests and elders,

MAT 27:4  Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And
 they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

MAT 27:5  And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and
 departed, and went and hanged himself.

MAT 27:6  And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not
 lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

MAT 27:7  And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to
 bury strangers in.

MAT 27:8  Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

MAT 27:9  Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet,
 saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was
 valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;

MAT 27:10  And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

MAT 27:11  And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him,
 saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.

MAT 27:12  And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered
 nothing.

MAT 27:13  Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they
 witness against thee?

MAT 27:14  And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor
 marvelled greatly.

MAT 27:15  Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a
 prisoner, whom they would.

MAT 27:16  And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

MAT 27:17  Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them,
 Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called
 Christ?

MAT 27:18  For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

MAT 27:19  When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him,
 saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many
 things this day in a dream because of him.

MAT 27:20  But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they
 should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

MAT 27:21  The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will
 ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.

MAT 27:22  Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is
 called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.

MAT 27:23  And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried
 out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

MAT 27:24  When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a
 tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude,
 saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

MAT 27:25  Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on
 our children.

MAT 27:26  Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus,
 he delivered him to be crucified.

MAT 27:27  Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common
 hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.

MAT 27:28  And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

MAT 27:29  And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his
 head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and
 mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

MAT 27:30  And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the
 head.

MAT 27:31  And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from
 him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.

MAT 27:32  And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him
 they compelled to bear his cross.

MAT 27:33  And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to
 say, a place of a skull,

MAT 27:34  They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had
 tasted thereof, he would not drink.

MAT 27:35  And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that
 it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my
 garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

MAT 27:36  And sitting down they watched him there;

MAT 27:37  And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE
 KING OF THE JEWS.

MAT 27:38  Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right
 hand, and another on the left.

MAT 27:39  And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

MAT 27:40  And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in
 three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the
 cross.

MAT 27:41  Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and
 elders, said,

MAT 27:42  He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of
 Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

MAT 27:43  He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for
 he said, I am the Son of God.

MAT 27:44  The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in
 his teeth.

MAT 27:45  Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto
 the ninth hour.

MAT 27:46  And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli,
 Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken
 me?

MAT 27:47  Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man
 calleth for Elias.

MAT 27:48  And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it
 with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

MAT 27:49  The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save
 him.

MAT 27:50  Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the
 ghost.

MAT 27:51  And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top
 to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

MAT 27:52  And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which
 slept arose,

MAT 27:53  And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the
 holy city, and appeared unto many.

MAT 27:54  Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus,
 saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly,
 saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

MAT 27:55  And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus
 from Galilee, ministering unto him:

MAT 27:56  Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and
 Joses, and the mother of Zebedees children.

MAT 27:57  When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named
 Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

MAT 27:58  He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate
 commanded the body to be delivered.

MAT 27:59  And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen
 cloth,

MAT 27:60  And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock:
 and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

MAT 27:61  And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over
 against the sepulchre.

MAT 27:62  Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the
 chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,

MAT 27:63  Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet
 alive, After three days I will rise again.

MAT 27:64  Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third
 day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the
 people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the
 first.

MAT 27:65  Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure
 as ye can.

MAT 27:66  So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and
 setting a watch.

MAT 28:1  In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day
 of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

MAT 28:2  And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord
 descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and
 sat upon it.

MAT 28:3  His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

MAT 28:4  And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

MAT 28:5  And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I
 know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

MAT 28:6  He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place
 where the Lord lay.

MAT 28:7  And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the
 dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him:
 lo, I have told you.

MAT 28:8  And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy;
 and did run to bring his disciples word.

MAT 28:9  And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them,
 saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

MAT 28:10  Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that
 they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

MAT 28:11  Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the
 city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.

MAT 28:12  And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken
 counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,

MAT 28:13  Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away
 while we slept.

MAT 28:14  And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and
 secure you.

MAT 28:15  So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying
 is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

MAT 28:16  Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain
 where Jesus had appointed them.

MAT 28:17  And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

MAT 28:18  And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto
 me in heaven and in earth.

MAT 28:19  Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name
 of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

MAT 28:20  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
 and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
