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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

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

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

And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this 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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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?

Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

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?

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.

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?

And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?

This is the first and great commandment.

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.

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.

And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.

And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

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.

And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.

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.

He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.

And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.

But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.

He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

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.

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.

And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:

This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Cesar’s.

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

Which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.

And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:

For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.

And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.

And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.

Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.

And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.

And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;

And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;

And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?

And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word is this! for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.

And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the region round about.

This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.

And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.

For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.

And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.

And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered such things?

Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?

For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.

The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

And, behold, there was a man named Zaccheus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.

And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?

Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man’s brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.

Which devour widows’ houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.

And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:

For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.

For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilean.

And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.

And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.

And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

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

Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

(The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

The same was in the beginning with God.

The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?

This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.

He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

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

And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?

But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?

And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?

Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?

What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?

Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.

Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.

But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.

They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.

The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.

They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.

Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
