And he said unto them, Full well ye
reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
He went on to say, “You
neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.
For Moses said, Honour thy father
and thy mother;
and,
Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
For Moses said, ‘Honor your father
and your mother’
and ‘
Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;
he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.
Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
Thus you
nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down.
And you do so in many such matters.”
And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them,
Hearken unto me every one of you,
and understand:
Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him
and said, “All of you,
listen to Me
and understand:
And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.
And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that
whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot
defile him;
“Are you still so dull?” He asked. “Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can
defile him,
Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the
belly,
and goeth out into the draught,
purging all meats?
because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach
and then is
eliminated.” (Thus all foods are clean.)
And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
He continued: “What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.
All these evil things come from within,
and defile the man.
All these evils come from within,
and these are what
defile a man.”
And from thence he arose,
and went into the borders of Tyre
and Sidon,
and entered into an house,
and would have no man know it: but he could not be
hid.
Jesus left that place
and went to the region of Tyre. Not wanting
anyone to know He was there, He entered a house, but was unable to escape their notice.
For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.
The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation;
and she
besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin,
and she kept asking Jesus to drive the
demon out of her daughter.
But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.
“First let the children have their fill,” He said. “For it is not right to take the children’s bread
and toss it to the dogs.”
And she answered
and said unto him,
Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.
“
Yes, Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.
Then Jesus told her, “Because of this answer, you may go. The
demon has left your daughter.”
And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
And she went home
and found her child lying on the bed,
and the
demon was gone.
And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre
and Sidon, he came unto the sea of
Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of
Decapolis.
Then Jesus left the region of Tyre
and went through
Sidon to the Sea of
Galilee and into the region of the
Decapolis.
And they bring unto him one that was
deaf,
and had an
impediment in his speech;
and they
beseech him to put his hand upon him.
Some people brought to Him a man who was
deaf and hardly able to speak,
and they
begged Jesus to place His hand on him.
And he took him aside from the multitude,
and put his fingers into his ears,
and he
spit,
and touched his tongue;
So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd,
and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He
spit and touched the man’s tongue.
And looking up to heaven, he
sighed,
and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
And looking up to heaven, He
sighed deeply
and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means, “Be opened!”).
And straightway his ears were opened,
and the string of his tongue was loosed,
and he spake plain.
Immediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly.
And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it;
Jesus ordered them not to tell
anyone. But the more He ordered them, the more widely they proclaimed it.
And were beyond measure
astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the
deaf to hear,
and the
dumb to speak.
The people were utterly
astonished and said, “He has done all things well! He makes even the
deaf hear
and the
mute speak!”
In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
In those days the crowd once again became very large, and they had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples to Him and said,
I have
compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days,
and have nothing to eat:
“I have
compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days
and have nothing to eat.
And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will
faint by the way: for
divers of them came from far.
If I send them home
hungry, they will
faint along the way. For some of them have come a great distance.”
And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?
His disciples replied, “Where in this
desolate place could
anyone find enough bread to feed all these people?”
And he asked them, How many
loaves have ye?
And they said, Seven.
“How many
loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied.
And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground:
and he took the seven
loaves,
and gave
thanks,
and brake,
and gave to his disciples to set before them;
and they did set them before the people.
And He
instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven
loaves, gave
thanks and broke them,
and gave them to His disciples to set before the people.
And they distributed them to the crowd.
And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
They also had a few small fish, and Jesus blessed them and ordered that these be set before them as well.
So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.
The people
ate and were satisfied,
and the disciples
picked up seven
basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
And about four thousand men were present. As soon as Jesus had dismissed the crowd,
He got into the boat with His disciples
and went to the district of
Dalmanutha.
And the
Pharisees came forth,
and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven,
tempting him.
Then the
Pharisees came
and began to
argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.
And he
sighed deeply in his spirit,
and saith, Why
doth this generation seek after a sign?
verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.
Jesus
sighed deeply in His spirit
and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.
And He left them, got back into the boat, and crossed to the other side.
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.
So they began to
discuss with one another the fact that they had no bread.
And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet
hardened?
Aware of their conversation, Jesus asked them, “Why are you
debating about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Do you have such hard hearts?
Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?
And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
“
And when I broke the seven
loaves for the four thousand, how many
basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Seven,” they said.
And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
Then He asked them, “Do you still not understand?”
And he cometh to
Bethsaida;
and they bring a blind man unto him,
and besought him to touch him.
When they arrived at
Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man
and begged Jesus to touch him.
And he took the blind man by the hand,
and led him out of the town;
and when he had
spit on his eyes,
and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
So He took the blind man by the hand
and led him out of the village. Then He
spit on the man’s eyes
and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked.
And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around.”
After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
Once again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and when he opened them his sight was restored, and he could see everything clearly.
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
Jesus sent him home and said, “Do not go back into the village.”
And Jesus went out,
and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea
Philippi:
and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?
Then Jesus
and His disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea
Philippi. On the way, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say I am?”
And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.
They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say
Elijah;
and still others, one of the prophets.”
And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.
“But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things,
and be rejected of the elders,
and of the chief priests,
and scribes,
and be killed,
and after three days rise again.
Then He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things
and be rejected by the elders, chief priests,
and scribes,
and that He must be killed
and after three days rise again.
And he spake that saying openly.
And Peter took him,
and began to
rebuke him.
He spoke this message quite
frankly,
and Peter took Him aside
and began to
rebuke Him.
But when he had turned about
and looked on his disciples, he
rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me,
Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
But Jesus, turning
and looking at His disciples,
rebuked Peter
and said, “Get behind Me,
Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them,
Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself,
and take up his cross,
and follow me.
Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples,
and He told them, “If
anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself
and take up his cross
and follow Me.
For
whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but
whosoever shall lose his life for my sake
and the gospel’s, the same shall save it.
For
whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but
whoever loses his life for My sake
and for the gospel will save it.
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet
forfeit his soul?
Whosoever therefore shall be
ashamed of me
and of my words in this
adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be
ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
If
anyone is
ashamed of Me
and My words in this
adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be
ashamed of him when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
And he said unto them,
Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.
Then Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.”
And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter,
and James,
and John,
and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves:
and he was
transfigured before them.
After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, James,
and John,
and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There He was
transfigured before them.
And his
raiment became
shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.
And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.
And Elijah and Moses appeared before them, talking with Jesus.
And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
Peter said to Jesus, “
Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for You, one for Moses,
and one for
Elijah.”
And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
Then a cloud appeared
and enveloped them,
and a voice came from the cloud: “This is My beloved Son.
Listen to Him!”
And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
Suddenly, when they looked around, they saw no one with them except Jesus.
And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.
As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus
admonished them not to tell
anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
So they kept this matter to themselves,
discussing what it meant to rise from the dead.
And they asked him, saying, Why say the
scribes that Elias must first come?
And they asked Jesus, “Why do the
scribes say that
Elijah must come first?”
And he answered
and told them, Elias
verily cometh first,
and restoreth all things;
and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things,
and be set at
nought.
He replied, “
Elijah does indeed come first,
and he restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things
and be rejected?
But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come,
and they have done unto him
whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
But I tell you that
Elijah has indeed come,
and they have done to him whatever they wished, just as it is written about him.”
And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them,
and the
scribes questioning with them.
When they returned to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them,
and scribes arguing with them.
As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were filled with
awe and ran to
greet Him.
And he asked the
scribes, What question ye with them?
“What are you disputing with them?” He asked.
And one of the multitude answered
and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a
dumb spirit;
Someone in the crowd replied, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a spirit that makes him
mute.
And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him:
and he foameth,
and gnasheth with his teeth,
and pineth away:
and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out;
and they could not.
Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked Your disciples to drive it out, but they were unable.”
He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
“O unbelieving generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to Me.”
So they brought him,
and seeing Jesus, the spirit immediately threw the boy into a
convulsion. He fell to the ground
and rolled around,
foaming at the mouth.
And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.
Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has this been with him?” “From
childhood,” he said.
And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire,
and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have
compassion on us,
and help us.
“It often throws him into the fire or into the water, trying to kill him. But if You can do anything, have
compassion on us
and help us.”
And straightway the father of the child
cried out,
and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
Immediately the boy’s father
cried out, “I do believe; help my unbelief!”
When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he
rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou
dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him,
and enter no more into him.
When Jesus saw that a crowd had come running, He
rebuked the unclean spirit. “You
deaf and mute spirit,” He said, “I command you to come out
and never enter him again.”
And the spirit
cried,
and rent him
sore,
and came out of him:
and he was as one dead;
insomuch that many said, He is dead.
After
shrieking and convulsing him violently, the spirit came out. The boy became like a
corpse, so that many said, “He is dead.”
But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
But Jesus took him by the hand and helped him to his feet, and he stood up.
And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?
After Jesus had gone into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
Jesus answered, “This kind cannot come out, except by prayer.”
And they departed thence,
and passed through
Galilee;
and he would not that any man should know it.
Going on from there, they passed through
Galilee. But Jesus did not want
anyone to know,
For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.
because He was teaching His disciples. He told them, “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill Him, and after three days He will rise.”
But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.
But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
And he came to
Capernaum:
and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among
yourselves by the way?
Then they came to
Capernaum. While Jesus was in the house, He asked them, “What were you
discussing on the way?”
And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve
and said, “If
anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all
and the servant of all.”
And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
Then He had a little child stand among them. Taking the child in His arms, He said to them,
Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me:
and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
“
Whoever welcomes one of these little children in My name welcomes Me,
and whoever welcomes Me welcomes not only Me, but the One who sent Me.”
And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name,
and he followeth not us:
and we
forbad him, because he followeth not us.
John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone else driving out demons in Your name,
and we tried to stop him, because he does not
accompany us.”
But Jesus said,
Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a
miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
“Do not stop him,” Jesus replied. “For no one who performs a
miracle in My name can turn around
and speak evil of Me.
And whosoever shall
offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a
millstone were
hanged about his neck,
and he were cast into the sea.
But if
anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to
stumble, it would be better for him to have a large
millstone hung around his neck
and to be thrown into the sea.
And if thy hand
offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life
maimed, than having two hands to go into
hell, into the fire that never shall be
quenched:
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life
crippled than to have two hands
and go into
hell, into the
unquenchable fire.
Where their worm dieth not,
and the fire is not
quenched.
And if thy foot
offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter
halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into
hell, into the fire that never shall be
quenched:
If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life
lame than to have two feet
and be thrown into
hell.
