scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither
shoes, nor yet
staves: for

bag for
the road, or second
tunic, or

the worker is worthy of his provisions.

whatsoever city or town ye shall enter,
enquire who in it is worthy; and
there abide till ye go
thence.

the day of judgment, than for that city.

their synagogues.

they hand you over, do not
worry about how to
respond or what to say. In that hour you will be given what to say.
For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

the cities of Israel, till
the Son of man be come.

flee to
the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all
the towns of Israel before

The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord.
A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.
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?
It is enough for a disciple to be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!
Fear
them not
therefore: for
there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and
hid, that shall not be known.

What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in
the ear, that
preach ye upon
the housetops.
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.
Do not be afraid of those who kill
the body but cannot kill
the soul. Instead, fear
the One who can destroy both soul and body in
hell.

farthing? and one of
them shall not fall on
the ground without your Father.
Are not two sparrows sold for a
penny? Yet not one of
them will fall to
the ground apart from
the will of your Father.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also
confess him before My Father in heaven.
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.
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.

And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.

whoever receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
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.

anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of
these little ones because he is My disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”

their cities.

And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?
to ask Him, “Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?”
Jesus answered and said unto
them, Go and
shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:
Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see:
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.
The blind receive sight,
the lame walk,
the lepers are
cleansed,
the deaf hear,

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?
As John’s disciples were leaving, Jesus began to speak to
the crowds about John: “What did you go out into
the wilderness to see? A reed
swaying in
the wind?
But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft
raiment? behold,
they that wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
Otherwise, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who wear fine clothing are found in kings’ palaces.
But what went ye out for to see? A prophet?
yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.
What
then did you go out to see? A prophet?
Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my
messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before
thee.
This is
the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My
messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’
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.
Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet even the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been subject to violence, and the violent lay claim to it.
For all
the prophets and
the law
prophesied until John.
For all
the Prophets and
the Law
prophesied until John.
And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come.
And if you are willing to accept it, he is
the Elijah who was to come.
But
whereunto shall I
liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in
the markets, and calling unto
their fellows,
To what can I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling out to others:
And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have
mourned unto you, and ye have not
lamented.
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.

demon!’

gluttonous, and a
winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified of her children.
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and
they say, ‘Look at this
glutton and
drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is
vindicated by her actions.”
Then began he to
upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because
they repented not:
Then Jesus began to
denounce the cities in which most of His miracles had been performed, because
they did not
repent.
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.
“
Woe to you, Chorazin!
Woe to you,
Bethsaida! For if
the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and
Sidon,
they would have
repented long ago in
sackcloth and ashes.
But I say unto you, It shall be more
tolerable for Tyre and
Sidon at
the day of judgment, than for you.
But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and
Sidon on
the day of judgment than for you.
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.
And you,
Capernaum, will you be lifted up to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades! For if
the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in
Sodom, it would have remained to this day.
But I say unto you, That it shall be more
tolerable for
the land of
Sodom in
the day of judgment, than for
thee.
But I tell you that it will be more bearable for
Sodom on
the day of judgment than for you.”
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.

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.
All things have been entrusted to Me by My Father. No one knows
the Son except
the Father, and no one knows
the Father except
the Son and those to whom
the Son chooses to
reveal Him.
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.
At that time Jesus went through
the grainfields on
the Sabbath. His disciples were
hungry and began to
pick the heads of grain and eat
them.
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.
When
the Pharisees saw this,
they said to Him, “Look, Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on
the Sabbath.”
But he said unto
them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an
hungred, and
they that were with him;
Jesus replied, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were
hungry?
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?
He entered
the house of God, and he and his companions
ate the consecrated bread, which was not lawful for
them to eat, but only for
the priests.
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?
Or
haven’t you read in
the Law that on
the Sabbath
the priests in
the temple break
the Sabbath and yet are innocent?
But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
But I tell you that something greater than the temple is here.
But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
If only you had known the meaning of ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent.
For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
And when he was departed
thence, he went into
their synagogue:
Moving on from
there, Jesus entered
their synagogue,
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.
and a man with a
withered hand was
there. In order to
accuse Jesus,
they asked Him, “Is it lawful to
heal on
the Sabbath?”
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?
He replied, “If one of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will he not take hold of it and lift it out?
How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
Then Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out, and it was restored to full use, just like the other.
Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how
they might destroy him.
But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from
thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he
healed them all;
Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. Large crowds followed Him, and He
healed them all,
And charged them that they should not make him known:
warning them not to make Him known.
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
This was to
fulfill what was spoken through
the prophet Isaiah:
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.
“Here is My Servant, whom I have chosen, My beloved, in whom My soul delights. I will put My Spirit on Him, and He will
proclaim justice to
the nations.
He shall not
strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in
the streets.
He will not quarrel or cry out; no one will hear His voice in the streets.
And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
In His name the nations will put their hope.”
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.
Then a
demon-possessed man who was blind and
mute was brought to Jesus, and He
healed the man so that he could speak and see.
And all
the people were
amazed, and said, Is not this
the son of David?
The crowds were
astounded and asked, “Could this be
the Son of David?”
But when
the Pharisees heard it,
they said, This fellow
doth not cast out devils, but by
Beelzebub the prince of
the devils.
But when
the Pharisees heard this,
they said, “Only by Beelzebul,
the prince of demons, does this man drive out demons.”
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:
Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.
And if
Satan cast out
Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall
then his kingdom stand?
If
Satan drives out
Satan, he is divided against himself. How
then can his kingdom stand?
And if I by
Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast
them out?
therefore they shall be your judges.
And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
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.
Or again, how can
anyone enter a strong man’s house and
steal his possessions, unless he first
ties up
the strong man?
Then he can
plunder his house.
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.
Whoever speaks a word against
the Son of Man will be
forgiven, but
whoever speaks against
the Holy Spirit will not be
forgiven, either in this age or in
the one to come.
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.
Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.
